Dear Mr. Vega:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater
Permitting form and made site visits to assess the potential for stormwater pollution. Based on our observations and
your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, the Division is granting your
conditional exclusion from permitting 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 (subject to civil penalties
of up to $25,000 per day). Your conditional no -exposure exclusion does not expire. However, you must self re-
certify annually using the enclosed form, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from
your facility. Please store the completed re -certification forms in order to have them available during future
inspections by DWQ.
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.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Dave Parnell at [phone] or at
[e-mail].

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.org/web/wq/ws/su/npdessw#tab-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.
-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))

Inspection Summary:
A site visit on October 11, 2011 revealed metals that were being exposed to stormwater runoff. The metals were being
stored at the rear of the facility. The dumpster had metal waste being exposed to the elements while being waiting to be
hauled away and recycled. An opportunity was given to the facility to correct the storage of materials issue and
implement BMPs to become eligible for the Certificate. Samples of stormwater were taken and the storage area were
within benchmarks, the dumpster area had elevated lead readings. BMPs as well as removal of an old generator and
other metals were implemented. A removable lid for the dumpster was inspected on November 2 and approved..
Based on the sample results, increase in BMPs and removal of metals from exposed stormwater the Certificate for No
Exposure is granted to this facility.

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).

Dear Mr. Parnell:
Mid -Atlantic Associates, Inc. (Mid -Atlantic) is pleased to submit the attached analytical
results for the stormwater sampling conducted at the above -referenced site. Mid -Atlantic
personnel mobilized to the site on October 18, 2011 and collected a representative
stormwater sample from two areas of the site, labeled as Outfall 001 and Outfall 002 on
the attached Site Map. The stormwater discharge at each of these locations was relatively
clear with no distinct odor, color or evidence of foam, an oil sheen or significant solids.
There was also no visible evidence of erosion at the site or erosion deposition at the
sample locations.
The stormwater samples were analyzed in the laboratory for total suspended solids
(TSS), total recoverable lead and oil and grease and in the field for pH. The analytical
results and pH measurements were compared to the benchmark values established in
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit NCG030000.
With the exception of lead detected in the sample from Outfall 001, all parameters were
reported below or within their respective benchmark values (see attached Table).
Based on the laboratory results and our observations at the site, the lead concentration
detected in the sample collected from Outfall 001 does not appear to be the result of
operations at the site. It appears that the elevated lead concentration may be the result
of sediment from recent grading activities (installation of a new sidewalk, placement of
new gravel/crush and run) becoming entrained in the stormwater runoff.
