Inspection Summary:
Ms. Melissa Joyner and Ms. Penny Markle met with Ms. Renita Sasser,Owner,at the C&R Auto Sales, Inc.facility to
conduct an industrial stormwater inspection. Ms.Sasser is the current owner of the facility but Mr.Jimmy Sasser is still
shown as the person who is legally responsible for the facility which is no longer correct.An Owner Designation/Affiliation
form will need to be submitted with the updated information of the person who is legally responsible for the facility.This form
may be accessed at this link: https:/Iedocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Owner-Affiliation.The Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan (SPPP)was reviewed.A current Certificate of Coverage was not available in the SPPP.There was a general map but
no site map with the information required per the conditions in General Permit NCG 100000.The SPPP did not include:a
narrative,an updated SPPP team,the notation that there have been spills or no spills during the last three years,the
certification statement that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges,spill
prevention and response procedures,documentation of employee annual training,a feasibility study,a best management
practices summary and documentation of facility semi-annual facility inspections. -
The Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring records were reviewed. Monitoring was recorded for 5/23/2013 and 1 211 7/2 0 1 9.
Total Toxic Organics was not being monitored which will need to be initiated immediately.The monitoring results for
December 2019,showed that there was a lead exceedance noted at Outfall A. If there is another lead exceedance recorded
during the next monitoring period at Outfall A,the facility will be in Tier Two.This means that monthly monitoring will need to
occur(not including periods with no discharge)for all parameters until there are three consecutive sampling results that are
below the benchmark values or within the benchmark range. If there is no discharge,"No Flow"should be noted on the
Discharge Monitoring Form.
Outfalls A and B were inspected.There was a concrete and metal structure stored near the Swale leading to Outfall A. Ms.
Sasser said that she was planning to relocate this structure.There were also bare,graded slopes near the Swale which
should be stabilized with permanent groundcover.Outfall B appeared in good condition.
