As a.current holder of a No -Exposure Certification, please note the following important change to the Division's z
implementation of this program. The No -Exposure Certifications no longer will have an expiration date. Previously your o
no -exposure exclusion had to be re -certified with the Division every 5 years. This will no longer be required. Please
disregard the expiration date on your original certification. However, in order to assure that your facility stays in
compliance With all of the conditions in the no -exposure certification, you must self re -certify your facility at least
annually. Please see the attachment for information on self re -certification.

s
If you are waiting for a response from the Division for a renewal certification you already submitted, please consider this
letter the Division's approval for renewing your. No -Exposure exclusion.
Please note that.ihis does not change your obligation 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 x
immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater.discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes o
subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. State statute provides for fines of up to $15,000 per day for. o
un-permitted discharges.

Your conditional exclusion from permitting 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. o
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact your Regional Office, or Robert Patterson in the

NO EXPOSURE CERTIFICATION Please check here if this is a renewal: a-1 ENEW AL
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for exclusion from a Stormwater Permit based
on NO EXPOSURE:
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notification that your facility does not require a
permit for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity in the State of North Carolina because
it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at an industrial facility means all
industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter (with some exceptions) to
prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DWQ must approve your application for No
Exposure Certification before this exclusion is effective. Until you are issued a No
Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue
to abide by the terms and conditions of the current permit.
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. A storm resistant shelter is not
required for the following industrial materials and activities: drums, barrels, tanks, and similar containers
that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed" means
banded or otherwise secured and with locked or non -operational taps or valves; adequately maintained
vehicles used in material handling; and final products, other than products that would be mobilized in
stormwater discharges (e.g., rock salt).
A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. In
addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is available on a facility -wide basis only —not for individual
outfalls. If any industrial activities or materials are, or will be, exposed to precipitation, the facility is not
eligible for the no exposure exclusion. By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form, you
certify that a condition of no exposure exists at this facility or site and are obligated to comply with the
terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g).
You are required to reapply for the No Exposure Exclusion once every five (5) years.
For questions, please contact the DWO Regional Office for your area. (Seepage 6)
