It is the intention of DWQ that enforcement proceedings will occur for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit. If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.

Sincere] Michael Lawyer Environmental Specialist Attachments (2) cc: r FRO -Surface Water Protection NPS-Assistance & Compliance Oversight Unit ADDENDUM The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program was established under the federal Clean Water Act and then delegated to the Division of Water Quality for implementation in North Carolina. The NPDES permitting program for stormwater discharges was established in 1990. Phase I focuses on site and operations planning to reduce pollutant sources. Through the NPDES permitting program industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are required to obtain permit coverage under a general permit or an individual permit, depending upon the facilities SIC code and the industrial activity occurring at the facility. There are currently 19 active general stormwater permits in North Carolina. One condition that is applicable to both the general permits and individual stormwater pennits is the requirement to develop and implement site -specific comprehensive'stonnwater pollution prevention plans (SPPP). These plans are required to include a comprehensive evaluation of the site and operations to reduce pollutant sources and prevent pollutant discharge. Copies of the general permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following webpage: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms Documents.hun Permit text, technical bulletins, discharge monitoring forms, and a Notice of Intent [which is the application of for coverage under a NPDES General Stormwater Permit] can be found at this web site.

A review of the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) was conducted, which contains all permit -required components. Documentation of the semi-annual Qualitative Monitoring was available for review and appeared to be complete. Analytical monitoring is not required at this facility as vehicle maintenance where an average of more than 55 gallons of new motor oil is used per month does not occur and the NCG050000 general permit does not require analytical monitoring otherwise. Copies of the facility's current Certificate of Coverage and the current general permit were present onsite. The facility's three outfalls were observed during the inspection and none had evidence of pollutant runoff. Based on the review of the SPPP, proper documentation of visual monitoring at each outfall and the overall appearance of the site including the outfalls, it was determined that the facility is in full compliance with the conditions of the NCG050000 general permit.
