Mr. Nisely,
I hope you are doing well. I have recieved and sent to you our most recent analytical stormwater results and we have
had our 4th excedence. However, we have managed to decrease the amount of copper in the outfall by half which I
believe to be contributed to our best management practices currently in place. I neglected to put in with the report a
written letter stating this fact so if this email is insufficient please let me know and I can send one out via regular mail.
hope to hear from you soon and thank you for your time.

Central Office Review Summary:
I . Owner's Other Permits: No other permits listed in BIMS.
2. General Observations:
• Based on the inspection report, the facility is now adding a new process called Wolman AG, in
addition to maintaining the ACQ process. The MSDS sheets were sent in and the estimated quantities used
each year.
• The application states the maintenance of fork lifts and machines is done on concrete and old fluids are
captured and are properly disposed.
3. Impairment: The Kehukee Swamp is not on the 303(d). Basinwide Plan mentions Kehukee Swamp and notes it
is supporting aquatic life due to a Moderate Stress benthic bioclassification at site N1355. The benthic
community resembled mostly pollution -tolerant species. In addition, undercut banks and root mats were rare.
However, the riparian zone was wide and intact on both sides of the stream. DWQ will continue to monitor
Kehukee Swamp.
4. Threatened and Endan ered: There are no species federally protected that are within 2 miles based on the
Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom.
5. Location: Draining to a classified C water body.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: At the time the application was submitted the only change was from
Chromated copper arsenate, CCA (a hazardous chemical) to Alkaline Copper Quaternary, ACQ (non hazardous
chemical).
During the compliance inspection (4/14/07) they informed the regional staff they are installing a new chemical to
their treating process.
A list of 7 chemicals and their estimated annual amounts involved in the new process was provided. Wolman
AG Concentration 130,000 lbs, Amigiclown 190,000 lbs, Arch Defoamer WE 190,000 lbs, K18500 Mold
Inhibitor 1250 KG tote 220,500 lbs, Arch Moldicide WE 1000 KG tote 220,500 lbs, Wolman AG Colorant/Fern
190,000 lbs, and Water repellant AG 24,000 lbs.
The Wolman AG process has since been discontinued on this site as well as the ACQ treatment. Now only
Micronized Copper Quat (MCQ) is used to treat the lumber.
Analytical Monitoring Notes: In the application the analytical monitoring was the same for every outfall and
storm event in the application: 20 mg/1 COD and 1 mg/I TSS. Central files had the actual values for each event.
TSS was over the current benchmark for all the outfalls. COD was over the current benchmark twice for outfall
2. Analytical monitoring for COD and TSS was maintained since both parameters have values over the current
benchmarks.
The 2008 EPA Multi -Sector general permit for Sector A recommends monitoring for Total Arsenic and Total
Copper for SIC 2491, Wood Preserving. Copper was added to monitoring since the process being used, MCQ,
contains copper. Arsenic is not is any current processes and not added to the monitoring.
BOD5 and COD have been added to other timber treated sites in our program because high levels of these
pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. Therefore, BOD5 has been
added to the renewal permit.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: The visual monitoring was done 12 times from 11/30/2001 to 11/24/2005. Many
times the water is muddy, grey and cloudy in outfalls I and 2. There is no flow often for outfall 2.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Maintaining COD and TSS. Adding Cu and BOD5.
2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part It
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part 11 Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
S. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part 1I Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part 11 Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part 11 Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

Discussions with permittee: Brenda Jones, 252-826-4151, swpnc@earthlink.net , 10/20/08
1. General description of industrial activities? Only treat lumber and no other processes onsite.
2. Have there been any changes since filing the application? Changed from ACQ and Wolman AC to MCQ in Nov.
2007. Concentrate for the old processes were sold to other companies and Hazmat cleaned up the site for the
remaining chemicals and materials onsite. MCQ and ACQ use the same chemicals although the copper is a
smaller size for MCQ.
3. What happened with the analytical monitoring/ qualitative monitoring? Not sure why the ISS is so high. Outilall
I is a ditch with some potential for sediment. No more debris is produced by the processes onsite.
4. How many outfalls do you have? Three outfalls. Outfall 3 is usually dry.
5. Do you have vehicle maintenance onsite? Yes, it is contracted out to Gregory Poole. It is done on concrete and the
oil is taken offsite with the contractor.
6. What is you SIC code? 2491

(b) Secondary Containment Regtnrements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section
313 of Title III of the Supecfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in
order to prevenWeaks•and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table
or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary
containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are
connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be
controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be
secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates
in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam,
outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the
accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to
be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a

SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. All
analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required
monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of
the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO).
A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall
and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1
inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no
precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge,
and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the
next 10 hours.

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: No other permits listed in BIMS.
2. General Observations:
• Based on the inspection report, the facility is now adding a new process called Wolman AG, in
addition to maintaining the ACQ process. The MSDS sheets were sent in and the estimated quantities used
each year.
• The application states the maintenance of fork lifts and machines is done on concrete and old fluids are
captured and are properly disposed.
3. Impairment: The Kehukee Swamp is not on the 303(d). Basinwide Plan mentions Kehukee Swamp and notes it
is supporting aquatic life due to a Moderate Stress benthic bioclassification at site N1355. The benthic
community resembled mostly pollution -tolerant species. In addition, undercut banks and root mats were rare.
However, the riparian zone was wide and intact on both sides of the stream. DWQ will continue to monitor
Kehukee Swamp.
4. Threatened and Endangered: There are no species federally protected that are within 2 miles based on the
Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom.
5. Location: Draining to a classified C water body.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: At the time the application was submitted the only change was from
Chromated copper arsenate, CCA (a hazardous chemical) to Alkaline Copper Quaternary, ACQ (non hazardous
chemical).
During the compliance inspection (4/14/07) they informed the regional staff they are installing a new chemical to
their treating process.
A list of 7 chemicals and their estimated annual amounts involved in the new process was provided. Wolman
AG Concentration 130,000 lbs, Amigiclown 190,000 lbs, Arch Defoamer WE 190,000 lbs, K18500 Mold
Inhibitor 1250 KG tote 220,500 lbs, Arch Moldicide WE 1000 KG tote 220,500 lbs, Wolman AG Colorant/Fern
190,000 lbs, and Water repellant AG 24,000 lbs.
The Wolman AG process has since been discontinued on this site as well as the ACQ treatment. Now only
Micronized Copper Quat (MCQ) is used to treat the lumber.
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: In the application the analytical monitoring was the same for every outfall and
storm event in the application: 20 mg/I COD and I mg/I TSS. Central files had the actual values for each event.
TSS was over the current benchmark for all the outfalls. COD was over the current benchmark twice for outfall
2. Analytical monitoring for COD and TSS was maintained since both parameters have values over the current
benchmarks.
The 2008 EPA Multi -Sector general permit for Sector A recommends monitoring for Total Arsenic and Total
Copper for SIC 2491, Wood Preserving. Copper was added to monitoring since the process being used, MCQ
contains copper. Arsenic is not is any current processes and not added to the monitoring.
BOD5 and COD have been added to other timber treated sites in our program because high levels of these
pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. Therefore, BOD5 has been
added to the renewal permit.
Qualitative Monitoring Notes: The visual monitoring was done 12 times from 11/30/2001 to 1 1/24/2005. Many
times the water is muddy, grey and cloudy in outfalls 1 and 2. There is no flow often for outfall 2.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Maintaining COD and "fSS. Adding Cu and BOD5.
2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part 11
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the tern of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier I and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote I of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
8. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in cacti
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part 11 Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part 11 Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part 11 Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part 1 Section A.

Discussions with permittee: Brenda Jones, 252-826-4151, swpnc@earthlink.net , 10/20/08
1. General description of industrial activities? Only treat lumber and no other processes onsite.
2. Have there been any changes since filing the application? Changed from ACQ and Wolman AG to MCQ in Nov.
2007. Concentrate for the old processes were sold to other companies and Hazmat cleaned up the site for the
remaining chemicals and materials onsite. MCQ and ACQ use the same chemicals although the copper is a
smaller size for MCQ.
3. What happened with the analytical monitoring/ qualitative monitoring'? Not sure why the TSS is so high. Outfall
I is a ditch with some potential for sediment. No more debris is produced by the processes onsite.
4. How many outfalls do you have? Three outfalls. Outfall 3 is usually dry.
5. Do you have vehicle maintenance onsite? Yes, it is contracted out to Gregory Poole. It is done on concrete and the
oil is taken offsite with the contractor.
6. What is you SIC code? 2491

Hi, Aisha! I did an inspection this week at Shenandoah Wood Preservers in Scotland
Neck. Stormwater program was in good shape. They are waiting on the renewal of their
permit. My visit was timely, though, in that they are right now adding a new process
to the ACQ preserving they now do. So I instructed Brenda Jones to write a letter to
you giving details of the new chemicals, etc. That new info can now be folded into
their new permit, too.
Attached is the cover letter from the inspection.
Any questions, please ask.

Wolman AG Concentrate
Amigiclown
Arch Defoamer WE
K 18500 Mold Inhibitor 1250 KG tote
Arch Moldicide WE 1000 KG tote
Wolman AG Colorant/Fem
Water repellent AG
A MSDS is enclosed for each chemical.
2. The estimated annual volume:.
Wolman AG Concentrate 130000 Lbs
Amigiclown 190000Lbs

Spill Mitigation Procedures
Air Release:
Hazardous concentrations in air may be found in local spill area and
immediately downwind. Contain all liquid for treatment and/or
disposal as a (potential) hazardous waste.
Water Release:
This material is soluble in water. Notify all downstream users of
possible contamination. Divert water flow around spill if possible and
safe to do so. Contain all liquid for treatment and/or disposal as a
(potential) hazardous waste.
Land Release:
Create a dike or trench to contain materials. Absorb spill with inert
material (e.g., dry sand, clay, earth or commercial absorbent), then
place in a chemical waste container. Do Not add deactivation
solution directly to waste container. Deactivate spill area with freshly
prepared solution of 5% sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and 5%
sodium hypochlorite (bleach) in water. Apply 10 volumes of the
solution per estimated volume of material remaining on the floor
(approximately 10% of originally spilled material). Wait
approximately 30 minutes and pick up the solution for disposal or
flush using copious amounts of water to the chemical sewer (if in
accordance with local procedures, permits, and regulations). Rinse
and remove gloves, transfer gloves to the waste container, and
close and seal the waste container. Dispose of the sealed waste pail
as hazardous waste in compliance with local, state and federal laws:
the recommended method of disposal is incineration.
Additional Spill Information :
Remove all sources of ignition. Stop source of spill as soon as
possible and notify appropriate personnel. Utilize emergency
response personal protection equipment prior to the start of any
response. Evacuate all non -essential personnel. Dispose of spill
residues per guidelines under Section 13, Disposal Consideration.

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as
the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a
minimum, the following items:
Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the
potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of
stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following:
(a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted
equivalent map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation
routes and surface waters, the name of the receiving water(s) to which the
stormwater outfall(s) discharges, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate
storm sewer system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving
waters; and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge.
(b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities,
outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and
waste disposal practices.
(c) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of
industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas
and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each
outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations, existing
BMPs and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage area that is
impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants
which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility
during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill
impacts.
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in
accordance with the requirements found in Part 111, Standard Conditions, Section
B, Paragraph 3.
Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
Part 11 Page I of 6
Permit No. NCS000289
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following:
(a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and
manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority
chemicals, or storage of hazardous substances to prevent leaks and spills from
contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment devices are
connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be
controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be
secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the
containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall
staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated
stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be
uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management
Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease
separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater
detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be
based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities
of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges.
3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stormwater specific. Therefore, a SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may
not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common
elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP.
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of
inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment
Part 11 Page 2 of 6
Permit No. NCS000289
and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of
these areas shall be incorporated into the program.
5. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and
preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in any of the facility's
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel
(or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified.
6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific
position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and
revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented
and position assignments provided.
Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in
design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the
minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall
submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum
requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with
Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes
have been made.
8. Facility Inspection Program. Facilities are required to inspect all stormwater systems on
at least a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September -November) and once in the
spring (April - June). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities
performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s)
making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control
systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be
incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
Stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring as required in Part II of this permit shall
be performed in addition to facility inspections.
9. Implementation. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements,
inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the
log of the sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the
industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall
be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his
authorized representative immediately upon request.
Part 11 Page 3 of 6
00 Permit No. NCS000289
SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of
representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified below in Table 3. Qualitative
monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. No analytical tests
are required. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls does not need to be performed during
a representative storm event.
In the event an atypical condition is noted at a stormwater discharge outfall, the Permittee shall
document the suspected cause of the condition and any actions taken in response to the
discovery. This documentation will be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan.
All qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, once in the spring (April - June) and
once in the fall (September - November).
