Raleigh, NC 27609 Fax: (919) 571-4718 Dear Mr. Glover: . Staff from the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) conducted a stormwater inspection on February 22, 2016, as part of a multimedia inspection of your facility. The assistance provided by Mr. Randy Burchette, Mr. Terry Allen, Mr. Tim Hill, and Ms. Tracy Wilson, during the inspection was greatly appreciated. The inspection report is attached. Findings during the inspection were as follows: 1. Certificate of Coverage (COC) No. NCG160020 under NPDES General Permit NCG160000 was issued to Barnhill Contracting Company— Hwy 97 Asphalt Plant to discharge stormwater runoff to Tar River, a WS-IV, NSW, CA stream, in the Tar -Pamlico River Basin. 2. The facility has developed and implemented a stormwater pollution prevention plan (SPPP). A review of the plan indicated that it included all components required by the general permit.. 3. Semi-annual qualitative and analytical monitoring has been conducted at two stormwater discharge outfalls (SDOs), as required by the General Permit. 4. Both SDOs were observed and found accessible. However, the location of SDO 002 (located at the northeast corner of the facility) was not properly identified. Correct location of SDO 002 should be the end of the culvert that discharges into the large pond in the northern part of the facility. Channelized runoff from a recycle asphalt pile close to the pond needs to be addressed (e.g., by providing berms around it). Please update the site map to include the correct location of SDO 002.

Safety note: This facility requires steel -toed shoes, hardhat and a reflective vest (11) INSPECTION SUMMARY: On February 22, 2016, I (Gary Perlmutter, DAQ-PRO), along with Thad Valentine (DLR- RRO) and Cheng Zhang (DWR-RRO) visited the facility to conduct a multimedia inspection. There we met with Ms. Tracy Wilson, QC, Mr. Terry Alan, Plant Supervisor, Mr. Tim Hill, Plant Foreman, and Mr. Randy Rochetle inside the plant control room. This report covers the air quality permit component of the inspection. The facility was shut down as it currently off-season. We first reviewed the permit stipulations and required records which seemed in order. This was followed by a facility tour where all sources were verified, but none were in operation. Finally, we visited the plant office and lab to review recycled asphalt test records, as asbestos testing is done in-house. All seemed in order. Overall, the Barnhill — Rocky Mount plant appeared well run and maintained from an air quality perspective. Further details follow. (I1I) PERMITTED EMISSION SOURCES:.

Ken From: Parnell, David Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2011 11:41 AM To: Pickle, Ken Cc: Smith, Danny Subject: NCG160000 Ken, Danny and I have a question that has arose concerning the NCG16 permit. In an NOV to Barnhill Contracting Co (NCG160020) in Rocky Mount. They reported "no flow" on their summary sheet (in house) but had not sent in a monitoring report within 30 days of the end of the 6 month sampling period. This was cited in the NOV letter (aside from the fact that I believe at least one of the two SOD could have been sampled). Our question to you is: Where is the monitoring report to be sent and where in the permit does it direct them to do so (Table 2. Footnote 2). OK, Where? And Where? - - See the permit boilerplate, Part 111 Section E paragraphs 1 and 1: Paragraph 1 re -iterates Footnote 2, establishing the 30 day clock on submittal of a DMR when no sample has been taken; Paragraph 2 directs the permittee to send two copies to Central Files, with address provided, and furthermore directs the permittee to send an annual summary report to the relevant RO, with internet address provided for the convenience of the permittee. Every failure to abide by these conditions is a basis for an NOV element. We also asked them to "address their intent to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping and/or install stormwater BMPs in a tiered program" based on their lack of monitoring (i.e. not sending in the No Flow data). OK, on this point, I'm not sure we have authority in the permit text to say exactly what you propose. I mean, it's not clear in the permit text that failure to sample is a trigger for moving into the text requirement that you cite. In the present form of the permit, only exceedances of benchmarks qualify as the trigger for the text you cite. The failure to sample is indeed an NOV basis. (You may be interested to know that this failure to sample has been identified in SPU as something we want to write into the next round of General Permit revisions to accomplish just what you're suggesting now. Good idea. We like it. But it's not in this current revision of NCG16.) If however they have had any exceedances since the start of the term of the most recent revision of this permit (October 1, 2009), then they are obligated to have executed a Tier 1 or Tier 2 response action, and to have recorded that in writing in their SPPP. If they haven't done that, it's another NOV element. Barnhill has requested that we rescind their NOV. i Seems to me you have a legitimate NOV for failure to report, as required by the terms and conditions of the permit. And maybe for failure to execute and record Tier 1 and perhaps Tier 1 response actions if there have been prior benchmark exceedances. if, in the extreme case, they have accumulated four exceedances of any one parameter at any one outfall since October 2009, then in accordance with the un-labeled box ("stealth Tier 3) on page 6 of 8, they owe you a contact (NOV potential if they didn't contact you about it), and you are authorized to take a more pro -active role in telling them how to address their continuing problem, which they don't seem to be able to get under control (ie, four exceedances is evidence of their impotence on this point.) you might take this authority to ask them to come up with a plan as to what they're going to do about it. Or you might take this authority to tell them specifically, concretely, what they are going to do about it. Ken Your opinion is greatly appreciated.

You can see that the attached form has been updated per your request. Narrative Description of Practices — enclosed you can see the forms and information that was in the facility's plan book. This information clearly demonstrates which practices we follow, who performs these practices and when these practices are completed. Mr. Parnell was shown this paperwork during the onsite inspection. As discussed, if your office would like to see this information worded differently then we will be glad to do so with your approval. 3. Detailed site map —a site map was onsite and has been updated to clarify outfalls. Annual updates — we have included a new form to be used to show all updates to the facility plan. Since we had no updates in recent years, this form had not been filled out accordingly. We do however, as the enclosed employee training reports show, training with each of the employees, who then continues to do monthly and weekly training themselves on issues ranging from visual inspections, paperwork and housekeeping. These reports were onsite and viewed by Mr. Parnell and he stated that it was obvious we performed the task. 5. Analytical Reporting — enclosed you will also find the copies for both reporting periods sent by our office for 2010. We will send these reports by certified mail in the future. As we discussed, this facility did not have any flow or release, from the site during this reporting period. As our records will indicate, sampling has always been performed when flow occurs from this site as well as the other permitted sites within our company. Danny, Barnhill strives to be an environmental leader for the asphalt industry and we feel our company's efforts and record to comply with our permit requirements shows our commitment to NCDENR's programs. Barnhill Contracting Company respectfully requests that the issued NOV be recinded by your office. Should you need additional information please contact my office.

Do we agree? How critical do we consider it that they include a written paragraph under Part II Section A (1)(b)? i.e. is it worthy of a NOV, or just a letter asking for improvements to the SP3? • My biggest concern is the lack of sampling, allegedly because there was no flow. See rain data, located for just Sept - Nov. Might have been rains in the other parts of the year, too. • 1 agree with Ken Pickle that without reports of benchmark exceedences, we cannot tell them to move into the Tier program. Are there other analytical reports from the time the 2009 permit was issued that are not in the materials I am reviewing? • They admit to what are rather minor weaknesses in t e r SP3 and their program: the site map not showing flow directions and other r ate, no documentation that they had no spills, no evidence of annual updates of the SP3 (but there is evidence from 2005, so they have not always been completely derelict. . Employee training has been given. My conclusion: They give evidence of actively carrying out the permit in years prior to the renewal in 2009, or at least in 2005 (that's 6 years ago). Since then, it appears that attention has dropped off. In fact, it looks as though they did not read the 2009 version to try to bring their program up to the standards stated there. Still, our case for an NOV is rather weak, unless we want to emphasize the lack of sampling. They are doing most of what is required, but just need to keep better records. I could go along with rescinding the NOV, but with a letter comparing their program now ' against the proactive 2005 records, explaining our concerns and our expectation that they will give the permit better attention.

The CET encompassed the stormwater permit requirements. The assistance of Mr. Emerson Etheridge, Plant Manger and Mr. Randy Burchette, Area Qualitv Control Manager, was appreciated and was helpful. NPDES NCG160020 Stormwater Permit Compliance Evaluation Inspection The general permit was issued on October 23, 2009 and expires on October 31, 2014. 2. Secondary containment is required at this facility, was inspected during the site visit and found to be in compliance at the time of this inspection. 3. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) was reviewed during the inspection. Please address the following deficiencies within the SP3: A current list of significant spills for the last three years is required to be within the plan. A "narrative description of practices' is required and must be documented within the SP3. A detailed site map which includes outfall locations and drainage areas is required to be within the SP3.

Qualitative Sampling is currently being conducted my Ms. "Tracy Wilson. Mr. Emerson Etheridge conducts a weekly visual check of the stormwater facilities. 5. Documentation was lacking for Analytical Monitoring. A summary report indicated that there has been no flow to sample during the monitoring periods for Year 1. If no discharge occurs during the samplin<, period, the permitee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. DWQ has not received monitoring reports for Year 1-Period 1 or Year 1-Period 2. Analytical monitoring sampling must be conducted during a representative storm event when there is a qualifying discharge at SDO#1 and SDO#2. Please adhere to the monitoring schedule for a representative storm, found in Table 2 of your permit. Please address your intent to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMP) in a tiered program. Bamhill Contracting Company is considered to be non -compliant with permit conditions of the NPDES NCG160020 permit.

Signature l - . �� - /f- % f SW3Pxg.xls SITE ASSESSMENT SUMMARY BARNHILL CONTRACTING COMPANY ROCKY MOUNT PLANT November 15, 1994 EVALUATE SITE FOR POLLUTANTS The following are sources of pollutants found on this site: The site, being an asphalt paving plant, stores materials needed to produce hot -mix asphalt concrete. In addition, materials for the maintenance of operational equipment and Transport vehicles are also stored on site. Stored materials include: ,,1 S1 (30,000 gal. above ground tank)`lJV" AC 20 Liquid Asphalt ( ) M016vw4 Diesel Fuel (S2) ( Various Grades of Motor Oil (S & S4) (1� 8�9a1. above ground tank)1J5 (S5) � Heating Oil ( Transmission Fluid (S7) (5,000 gal. above ground tank) CRS 1 Bulk Various Size Aggregates Bulk Sand Bulk Recycled Asphalt Milling RAP) The facility utilizes approximately thirty five (35) dump trucks on site. The largest potential source of pollution comes from the above ground storage tanks. There are seven (7) various sized storage tanks, some of which have secondary containment devices. S1: AC-20 Liquid Asphalt, 30,000 gallons Mobile Storage Tank. (-Z) AC-20 Liquid asphalt is stored at the plant site in a mobile (rubber -tired) tanker. The tanker is not subject to relocation and is considered a stationary part of the plant system. the containment appeared to be generally clean and in good working condition. This tank uses an internal hot oil circulation system which is necessary to heat the asphalt to it's liquid condition for mixing with the design aggregate materials. This particular tank appeared to have a small drip at one of the conduit joints. This is most likely from the hot oil heating system. Asphalt must be hot to be liquid and would solidify if exposed to normal open-air temperatures. It is for this reason that the asphalt itself is not considered to be a potential pollution problem, however, the oil in the heating system is and needs to be watched carefully. The plant superintendent should review the potential oil drip routinely. If the problem cannot be corrected or repaired, then a metal drip pan should be appropriately placed to catch and contain any oil that may be leaked. It should be noted that since this tank sits on a concrete slab, no ground contamination has occurred. S2: Diesel Fuel, 24,000 gallons Above Ground Storage Tank and emo(ED S6: Transmission fluid, 5,000 gallons Above Ground Storage Tank CC, These two materials are listed together because they are side -by -side in the same 4' high concrete block secondary containment structure. Evidence of minor past leakage was found inside the containment structure, but was not considered excessive and may be attributed to the refilling process. It may be necessary to utilize training methods for those employees directly responsible for operation or overseeing of the material transfer. The importance of a safe no -spill procedure should be explained in a detailed, written procedure prepared by the Plant Superintendent and reviewed with pt should be made to instruct and personnel in appropriately held training classes. Every attem educate relevant employees with regards to the refilling of the tanks to avoid spillage. Accidental spillage into the containment structure should be eliminated and is not an acceptable routine. Of particular importance is the need to educate employees on the removal and handling of any collected ure. The sto mcwaterr needs)totbe pec f cally outlined Land eviewedton an anndulsposal of the contaminated annual di The secondary containment has a 4" diameter drainage pipe that is plugged. A visual inspection of the containment structure did not indicate any cracks or separation of joints and thus the structure is od eak believed to be structurally sound to anddeterminein thercontainment tstructure ion. It is c omis st II water t ghtended thatl andage tests be performed every 2-3 years functioning properly. S3 & S4: Motor Oil, (2) 5,000 gallons Above Ground Storage Tanks ReMou The plant utilizes (1) 5,000 gallon Tank for the reclamation of old motor oil and (1) 5,000 gallon tank for the disbursement of new -motor oil. the new oil is brought in and stored in a mobile trailer facility. The oil is dispensed via a gravity flow "hose type" device and no evidence of spillage was found. The utilization of the mobil tank appears to be suitable to the environment and no changes in procedure are recommended. The waste tank was originally placed as an above ground structure. However, earthen fill material has been placed against it in a "ramp" like manner to allow trucks to drive up and drop the oil directly into the tank. While this is a good and efficient method for transfer oss blefthe leakage is undetectable.effect, thehas made the holding tank a "Below ground" structure, thus any p earthen fill should be removed to expose the tank and allow visual inspection on a regular basis. Secondary containment can be assessed based upon visual inspection of performance for an exposed tank.

The NOI shall be submitted and a certificate of coverage issued prior to any discharge of stormwater associated - with industrial activity that has a point source discharge to the surface waters of the state. Any owner or operator not wishing to be covered or limited by this General Permit may make application for an individual NPDES permit in accordance with NPDES procedures in 15A NCAC 2H .0100, stating the reasons supporting the request. Any application for an individual permit should be made at least 180 days prior to commencement of discharge. This General Permit does not cover activities or discharges covered by an individual NPDES permit until the individual permit has expired or has been revoked. Any person conducting an activity covered by an individual permit but which could be covered by this General Permit may request that the individual permit be revoked and coverage under this General Permit be provided. If industrial materials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR §I22.26(g), the facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Any owner or operator wishing to obtain a No Exposure Exclusion from permitting must submit a No Exposure Certification NOI form to the Division, must receive approval by the Division, must maintain no exposure conditions unless authorized to discharge under a valid NPDES stormwater permit, and must reapply for the No Exposure Exclusion once every five (5) years. Any facility may apply for new or continued coverage under this permit until a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for pollutants for stormwater discharges is established. A TMDL sets a pollutant loading limit that affects a watershed, or portion of a watershed, draining to an impaired water. For stormwater discharges to watersheds affected by a TMDL, coverage under this permit may depend on the facility demonstrating it does not have reasonable potential to violate applicable water quality standards for those pollutants as a result of discharges. If the Division determines that discharges have reasonable potential to cause water quality standard violations, the facility shall apply for an individual permit 180 days prior to the expiration date of this general permit, and once that permit is effective, will no longer have coverage under this general permit. [Note the facility must identify impaired waters (scheduled for TMDL development) and waters already subject to a TMDL in the Site Plan, as outlined in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP), Part I1, Section A. L] During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the Permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with the industrial activity. Such discharges shall be controlled, limited, and monitored as specified in this permit. Part I Page I of 2 Permit No. NCG 160000 SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system which has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this General Permit. All discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this permit. Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization, or approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this General Permit shall not cause or contribute to violations of Water Quality Standards. This General Permit does not allow discharges determined by the Division of Water Quality to be wastewaters. The discharge and/or disposal of vehicle wash water or vehicle rinse water is not permitted by this General Permit. Wash water and rinse water must be directed to a sanitary sewer system or permitted by a separate wastewater permit issued by the Division. The discharge and/or disposal of any paints, solvents, petroleum, diesel oil or oil/water compounds applied to any surface of the vehicles is not permitted by this General Permit. This permit does not relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard. ordinance, order, judgment. or decree. Part I Page 2 of 2 Permit No. NCG160000 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 111, Standard Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this General 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. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify whether each receiving water is impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired waters) or is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been established, and what the parameter(s) of concern are. (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. A narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall. (c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: the site property boundary, the stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), site topography, all drainage features and structures, drainage areas for each outfall, direction of flow in each drainage area, industrial activities occurring in each drainage area, buildings, existing BMPs, and impervious surfaces. The site map shall include a distance legend and must indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. In addition, the following industrial activity areas must also be identified on the site map: fueling, engine maintenance and repair; vessel maintenance and repair, washing, painting, sanding, blasting, welding, and metal fabrication. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the three (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 Part 11 Page 1 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG 160000 accordance with the requirements found in Part 111, Standard Conditions, Section B. Paragraph 5. The permittee shall re -certify annually that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. 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 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 stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title I I I of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to prevent leaks 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 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 any material. 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 written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually. 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 the team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and dated by each individual acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to Part 11 Page 2 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG160000 contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, an oil Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC) 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 and good housekeeping program shall be developed. The program shall list all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including material storage areas, material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), all drainage features and structures, and existing structural BMPs. The program shall establish schedules of inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping activities of stormwater control systems, as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and facility systems that present a potential for stormwater exposure or stormwater pollution. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained in the SPPP. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for 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, and their annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained. 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. All aspects of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges.

Analytical Monitoring Requirements Discharge Characteristics Units Measurement Fre uenc 1 Sample Type2 Sample Location3 H standard semi-annual Grab SDO TSS, Total Suspended Solids mg/I semi-annual Grab SDO Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons EPA Method 1664 (SGT-HEM) mg/I semi-annual Grab SDO Total Rainfal14 inches semi-annual Rain gauge Footnotes: I Measurement Frequency: Twice per year during a representative storm event. 2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. . 3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless representative outfall status has been granted. 4 For each sampled representative storm event the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain gauge or local rain gauge reading must be recorded. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall. The time between this storm event and the previous storm event measuring greater than 0.1 Part 11 Page 4 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG160000 inches must be at least 72 hours. A single storm event may have a period of no precipitation of up to 10 hours. For example, if it rains but stops before producing any collectable discharge, a sample may be collected if the next rain producing a discharge begins within 10 hours. The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in Table 2. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period I and Period 2 sample dates unless monthly monitoring has been instituted under a Tier Two response. Table 2.

If at the expiration of the general permit, the permittee has submitted an application for renewal of coverage before the submittal deadline. the permittee will be considered for renewed coverage. The applicant must continue semi-annual monitoring until the renewed Certificate of Coverage is issued. 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. In all cases, the permittee shall report the analytical results from the first sample with valid results within the monitoring period. The permittee shall compare those results to the benchmark values in Table 3. Exceedences 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. See below the descriptions of Tier One and Tier Two response actions. Table 3. Benchmark Values for Analytical Monitoring Requirements Discharge Characteristics Benchmark Value H Within the range 6.0 - 9.0 TSS, Total Suspended Solids 100 mg/I Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) 15 mo/L Part 11 Page 5 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG 160000 If. The first valid sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark Then: The permittee shall: I. Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling results. 2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedence. 3. Identify potential and select the specific: source controls, operational controls, or physical improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, or to bring concentrations within the benchmark ranee. 4. Implement the selected actions within two months of the inspection. 5. Record each instance of a Tier One response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Include the date and value of the benchmark exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting the inspection, the selected actions, and the date the selected actions were Tier Two If: During the term of this permit, the first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall: Then: The permittee shall: I. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within the benchmark ranee. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements. 4. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. During the term of this permit, if the valid sampling results required for the permit monitoring periods exceed the benchmark value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on four occasions, the permittee shall notify the DWQ Regional Office Supervisor in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth analytical results. DWQ may: • require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • rescind coveraue under the General Permit, and require that the permittee apply for an individual stormwater discharge permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; • require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures; or • require that the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for the No Exposure Exclusion. SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Part 11 Paoe 6 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG 160000 Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of representative outfall status; and shall be performed as specified below in Table 4. No analytical tests are required. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls must be performed during a representative storm event. Table 4. Qualitative Monitoring Requirements Discharge Characteristics Frequency Monitoring Locationl Color Semi -Annual SDO Odor Semi -Annual SDO Clarity Semi -Annual SDO Floating Solids Semi -Annual SDO Suspended Solids Semi -Annual SDO Foam Semi -Annual SDO Oil Sheen Semi -Annual SDO Erosion or deposition at the outfall Semi -Annual SDO Other obvious indicators of stormwater pollution Semi -Annual SDO Footnotes: I Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) regardless of representative outfall status. If the permittee's qualitative monitoring indicates either that existing stormwater BMPs are ineffective, or that significant stormwater contamination is present, the permittee shall investigate potential causes, evaluate the feasibility of corrective actions, and implement those corrective actions appropriate. A written record of the permittee's investigation, evaluation, and response actions shall be kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Qualitative monitoring is for the purposes of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP), assessing new sources of stormwater pollution, and prompting the permittee's response actions to pollution. If the permittee repeatedly fails to respond effectively to correct problems identified by qualitative monitoring, or if the discharge causes or contributes to a water quality standard violation, DWQ may: • require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • rescind coverage under the General Permit, and require that the permittee apply for an individual stormwater discharge permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; • require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures; or • require that the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for the No Exposure Exclusion. Qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, in accordance with the schedule in Part 11 Page 7 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCG 160000 Table 2. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period I and Period 2 monitoring dates, unless monthly sampling has been instituted under a Tier Two response as part of other analytical monitoring requirements in this permit.
