Skvarla, III, Secretary December 10, 2013 Subject: Tier 2 Monitoring/Request for Reduced Sampling Response Southern Metals Facility NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG200347 Mecklenburg County, North Carolina The Mooresville Regional Office is in receipt of your letter dated November 25, 2013 requesting a waiver for the Tier 2 Monitoring associated with your stormwater permit. The facility has implemented several strategies to try and alleviate benchmark exceedences, as described in the attached inspection report. Significant reductions have been made in the metal concentrations of the stormwater discharge. The facility has been sporadically in compliance with the benchmarks after the tiered responses and, as discussed during the inspection, you will install/maintain additional floc logs for aid in settling in an effort to further reduce metal concentrations. Therefore, (lie Division grants Southern Metals Company a waiver of additional sampling associated with the Tier 2 response of the site's stormwater permit (NCG200347). Please be advised that semiannual sampling must still be conducted as described in Section B-Analytical Monitoring Requirements -of the permit. Please place this letter with your stormwater pollution prevention plan as documentation for the waiver of the tiered response. Enclosure Sincerely, 91ftiguyn DEC 1 9 2013 ,...

The facility has provided Tier 1 and Tier 2 responses that include but are not limited to: 1. Stormwater retention pond enlargement 2. Stormwater retention pond cleaning 3. Coconut wattles to slow stormwater flow 4. Use of floc logs in many areas to aid in sediment settling 5. Added an additional catch basin in the center of the facility. From the onset of the tiered responses, zinc and copper numbers have been greatly reduced and some months even in compliance. However, the facility has not had enough consistent compliance to be returned to semi-annual sampling. After a thorough site review, the facility will be allowed to return to semi-annual sampling. Thank you for the hard work already performed to greatly reduce the concentration of heavy metals in your stormwater discharge.

The first pond is 76 to 80 ft. wide with a depth of 2 to 5 ft. The first pond is also 5 % to 6ft from top of bank to bottom. The second pond is 7ft from top of bank to bottom. The width is 65ft. The grading company added Netting, planted grass seed and added grass filtration strips (Bermuda grass), added rocks to existing baffles and new rock baffles for further filtration. We adjoined a corrugated pipe from the first pond to the second pond and a corrugated pipe from the second pond leading to Irwin creek. We have added sight specific logs (metal reduction) to our outfalls around Southern Metals Company which is about 8 logs. There are new trenches around the yard and piping to further add to the water flow in the yard. We clean the trenches with a magnet to get the metals out, Clean out ditches and basins on a regular basis when over grown with brush or debris. Floc logs will not stay together on a rope so we put them in metal baskets attached to a chain. Also a Carter pin keeps these baskets closed. Our welders have made a basket attached to a bar. The bar has a crank which lowers the basket in and out of the water at the pond. They also put metal stairs which leads from the top of bank into the pond to check the log. There is now a road down to the ponds to get equipment such as trucks, loaders, skid steers etc. One place we added a pipe is under the road beside the R/R tracks near the shear. The purpose of the Floc log is for the runoff (storm water) to run over the log removing particles and metals while doing so. After taking samples and sending those to Applied Polymer Systems We were able to find site specific logs. Southern Metals Company placed containers to catch water runoff from the color sorter.where we clean Red Brass, Yellow Brass and Copper). Southern Metals Company put a large catch basin in place at the Shedder to catch the runoff this significantly lowered are metal levels in storm water. Southern Metals added 12 to 15 Coconut wattles along the fence line to keep metals inside the yard. The HMS Plant uses coconut wattles in the HMS Plant doorways to keep the metal inside the building. We Added 3 metal bins at.the shredder to keep motor oil and transmission fluid inside the bins. Southern Metals enlarged and added a roof over the zinc bin beside the HMS plant, Also there are coconut wattles along the side to further contain metals. Southern Metals added an Oil Water Separator at the vehicle Maintenance Department to control oil from heavy equipment. r NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources Land Quality Section Tracy E.

The first pond is 76 to 80 ft. wide with a depth of 2 to 5 ft. The first pond is also 5 % to 6ft from top of bank to bottom. The second pond is 7ft from top of bank to bottom. The width is 65ft. The grading company added Netting, planted grass seed and added grass filtration strips (Bermuda grass), added rocks to existing baffles and new rock baffles for further filtration. We adjoined a corrugated pipe from the first pond to the second pond and a corrugated pipe from the second pond leading to Irwin creek. We have added sight specific logs (metal reduction) to our outfalls around Southern Metals Company which is about 8 logs. There are new trenches around the yard and piping to further add to the water flow in the yard. We clean the trenches with a magnet to get the metals out, Clean out ditches and basins on a regular basis when over grown with brush or debris. Floc logs will not stay together on a rope so we put them in metal baskets attached to a chain. Also a Carter pin keeps these baskets closed. Our welders have made a basket attached to a bar. The bar has a crank which lowers the basket in and out of the water at the pond. They also put metal stairs which leads from the top of bank into the pond to check the log. There is now a road down to the ponds to get equipment such as trucks, loaders, skid steers etc. One place we added a pipe is under the road beside the R/R tracks near the shear. The purpose of the Floc log is for the runoff (storm water) to run over the log removing particles and metals while doing so. After taking samples and sending those to Applied Polymer Systems We were able to find site specific logs. Southern Metals Company placed containers to catch water runoff from the color sorter where we clean Red Brass, Yellow Brass and Copper). Southern Metals Company put a large catch basin in place at the Shedder to catch the runoff this significantly lowered are metal levels in storm water. Southern Metals added 12 to 15 Coconut wattles along the fence line to keep metals inside the yard. The HMS Plant uses coconut wattles in the HMS Plant doorways to keep the metal inside the building. We Added 3 metal bins at the shredder to keep motor oil and transmission fluid inside the bins. Southern Metals enlarged and added a roof over the zinc bin beside the HMS plant, Also there are coconut wattles along the side.to further contain metals. Southern Metals added an Oil Water Separator at the vehicle Maintenance Department to control oil from heavy equipment. r NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources Land Quality Section Tracy E.

Skvarla, III, Secretary December 10, 2013 Subject: Tier 2 Monitoring/Request for Reduced Sampling Response Southern Metals Facility NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG200347 Mecklenburg County, North Carolina The Mooresville Regional Office is in receipt of your letter dated November 25, 2013 requesting a waiver for the Tier 2 Monitoring associated with your stormwater permit. The facility has implemented several strategies to try and alleviate benchmark exceedences, as described in the attached inspection report. Significant reductions have been made in the metal concentrations of the stormwater discharge. The facility has been sporadically in compliance with the benchmarks after the tiered responses and, as discussed during the inspection, you wilt install/maintain additional floc logs for aid in settling in an effort to further reduce metal concentrations. Therefore, the Division grants Southern Metals Company,a waiver of additional sampling associated with the Tier 2 response of the site's stormwater permit (NCG200347). Please -be -advised. that semiannual.sampling.must still be conducted as described in Section B-Analytical Monitoring Requirements -of the permit. Please place this letter with your stormwater pollution prevention plan asdocumentation for the waiver of the tiered response.i Sincerely, 34-u s ff - Zahid S.
