SUBJECT: NPDES Stormwater Permit Compliance Inspection

Permit No: NCG200437
Graham County
Dear Mr. Duvall:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
This letter is in follow-up to the NPDES Stormwater Permit Compliance Inspection conducted on
September 22, 2011 by Kevin Barnett and myself of the Asheville Regional Office, Surface Water
Protection Section, the Division of Water Quality. We appreciated the assistance of Mr. Donnie
Orr during the inspection.
A review of the site, and inspection of any potential conveyances to surface waters, indicated no
direct pathways for stormwater runoff. We recommend that Graham County continue good
housekeeping practices and conduct as many activities under cover as is feasible.
By this letter, this office is notifying the Stormwater Permitting Unit that au NI'DES stormwater
permit is no longer necessary for the Graham County Recycling Facility. Please contact Brian
Lowther, Environmental Engineer, Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone] to determine if
Graham County needs to submit further information to rescind the permit.
Should the location ol'the facility change, or should practices substantially change, please notify
this office.

CDC # NCG200437
Graham County
Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under general permit NCG200000 the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued stormwater general permit. Due to resource constraints,
the Division has been unable to adequately consider appropriate modifications to the permit. Therefore, the permit
has been reissued without changes from the previous permit, so all conditions remain the same. The permit term for
the reissued permit is two years, expiring on September 30, 2008. The general permit may be modified and reissued
prior to its expiration. The permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-
215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, dated December 6, 1983.
The following information is included with your permit package:
A new Certificate of Coverage
A copy of General Stormwater Permit NCG200000
Your coverage under this general permit is not transferable except after notice to DWQ. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the Certificate of Coverage. This permit does not affect the legal
requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR or relieve the permittee from responsibility for
compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or
decree.
If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact Little Tennessee of the Central Office
Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone], ext. Ken Pickle.

COC Number NCG200437
Graham County
Dear Permittee:
Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG200000. This permit expires on
October 31, 2005. The Division staff is currently in the process of renewing this permit. When a draft version is
available for notice and public comment, it will be posted on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/. Once
the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, enclosed you will find a
Permit Coverage Renewal Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by August 19, 2005 in
order to assure continued coverage under the general permit. Letters confirming our receipt of the completed
application will not be sent.
Failure to request renewal within the time period specified may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00.
Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your
facility without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and
could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
Please note that "no exposure exclusion" is now available to all operators of industrial facilities in any of the
categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except construction activities). If you feel
your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facility industrial materials and operations are not
exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion. For additional information contact the Central
Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater Permitting Unit Web Site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/.
If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
Rescission Request Form. Mailing instructions can be found on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when
the rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit renewal procedures please contact Jonathan Diggs of the Central
Office Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone], ext. 537.
