Dear Ms. Alexander:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the permit name/ownership change form for the subject No -Exposure
Certification, which we received on August 17, 2011. Division personnel have reviewed and approved your request to transfer
the exclusion from NPDES stormwater permitting requirements.
Please note that by our original acceptance of the no exposure certification and by our approval of your request to
transfer it, you are obligated to maintain no exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your
facility can no longer qualify for the no -exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage
for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge.
Annual re -certification is required, and we have enclosed one blank Annual No Exposure Exclusion Self Re -Certification
form for your use. Your certification of no exposure does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental
permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact the Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone].
Sincerely,
ORIGI KSIGNED B1

No -Exposure Self Re -Certification Information:
You are obligated to maintain no -exposure* conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your
facility can no longer qualify for a no -exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES
permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as
an un-permitted discharge. State statute provides for fines of up to $25,000 per day for un-permitted
discharges.
Your conditional no -exposure exclusion must be self re -certified at least annually as follows:
- Complete the re -certification at a minimum of once per year using the included Self Re -
Certification Form.
(additional copies can be downloaded from http://portal.ncdenr.orgtwebtwq/ws/su/npdesswlttab-5 )
- Maintain a record of re -certifications on file at the facility. Do not submit the re -certification to DWQ
unless requested. If requested, submit a copy of the re -certification to the Division and/or the
municipality in which the facility is located.
-During an inspection by DWQ or local government, provide the re -certifications immediately upon
request.
- Notify the Division of any changes in ownership, significant facility and/or activity changes, or if the
facility can no longer maintain no -exposure conditions.
-Allow the NPDES permitting authority or, if discharging into a municipal separate storm sewer system, the operator
of the system, to: (1) inspect the facility; and (2) make such inspection reports publicly available upon request.
* "No exposure" means that all industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter to prevent
exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff. Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to, material
handling equipment or activities, industrial machinery, raw materials, intermediate products, by-products, final products, or
waste products. Material handling activities include the storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any
raw material, intermediate product, final product or waste product. (40 CFR 122.26(g))

Dear Permittee:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form, which we received on December 30, 2002. We apologize for the extended
period it has taken us to get back to you on this request and we appreciate your patience as we have worked
through this process. Based on your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced
facility the Division is granting your certification as provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g) which is incorporated
by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your no exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no
exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no -
exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater
discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your
conditional no -exposure exclusion expires in five years (April 30, 2010). At that time you must re -certify with
the Division, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from your facility.
Your certification of no exposure does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental
permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Jonathan Diggs at [phone] ext.
537, or at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
for Alan W. Klimek, P.E.
