Dear Mr. Lewis and Mr. Davidson:
Pursuant to your letter dated March 29, 2018 regarding the "Notice of Violation and
Assessment of Civil Penalty for Violations of North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-
215.1(a) Low& Bonar Inc. — 1301 Sand Hill Road Case No. DV-2018-0012 Buncombe
County', Low& Bonar Inc. hereby requests remission or mitigation for the assessed
penalty of$82,222.97.
Attached are the Request for Remission of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an
Administrative Hearing, and Stipulations of Facts Form and the Justification for
Remission Request Form. Our detailed justification and pleading is contained in the
body of this letter.
t

DETAILS OF JUSTIFICATION FOR REMISSION REQUEST
As to our pleading for remission:
For Factor (1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in the
N.C.G.S. 14313-282.1(b)were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
Eight sub-factors are considered and set forth from G.S. 143B-282.1(b):
Sub-Factor (1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the
State, to public health, or to private property resulting from the violation;
Sub-Factor (2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
Sub-Factor (3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air
quality;
Sub-Factor (4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
Sub-Factor (5) The amount of money saved by the noncompliance;
Sub-Factor (6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
Sub-Factor(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply
with programs over which the Environmental Management Commission has
regulatory authority; and
Sub-Factor (8) The cost to the state of the enforcement procedures.
Low& Boner Inc. (L&B) will address each factor one by one below for consideration:
Sub-Factor (1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of
the State, to public health, or to private property resulting from the
violation;
L&B Response: There were not any deleterious effects detected in the
environment because of the permit rescission. To our knowledge, State Natural
Resources, Public Health, and Private Property have not been impacted by this
violation.
Sub-Factor (2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
L&B Response: While the duration appears to have been long, the impact to the
environment for not having the permit has been unremarkable. The violation
itself was a self-reporting action on the part of Low&Bonar Inc. due to its
discovery in its initiative to become ISO 14001-2015 certified.
2

One of the ISO 14001 clauses §6.1.3 Compliance Obligations states that "The
organization shall:
a) determine and have access to the compliance obligations related to its
environmental aspects;
b) determine how these compliance obligations apply to the organization;
c) take these compliance obligations into account when establishing,
implementing, maintaining and continually improving its environmental
management system.
The organization shall maintain documented information of its compliance
obligations."
It was due to auditing our compliance obligations that this was detected and not
due to environmental harm and intervention by DWQ Enforcement.
Sub-Factor (3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or
on air quality;
L&B Response: From our engineering studies conducted by Pisgah
Environmental Services and a retired L&B contract engineer, it is determined that
approximately 29,500 gallons per day of ground water is infiltrating into our storm
water system. We basically have a miniature stream flowing through our storm
water system. This infiltration is positive displacement and not absorbing our
non-contact cooling waters and chiller tower blowdowns.
As far as surface water quality, as stated previously, there has not been any
detriment to the environment. Linda Wiggs, Environmental Senior Specialist,
from your office conducted a Site Survey with me, the engineers from Pisgah
Environmental Services, and a retired facilities engineer from L&B on July 6,
2017. Ms. Wiggs was able to witness the discharge of the combined stream of
ground water and purchased city water used for cooling into what L&B calls the
East Ditch. It is also referred to in Pisgah's reports as the Unnamed Tributary To
Hominy Creek. She was able to witness aquatic life, fish and minnows freely
swimming about with normal vegetation on the ditch/stream banks.
Air quality has not been impacted in any fashion due to discharging purchased
city water. In fact L&B is in good standing with WNC Regional Air Quality as we
are inspected every year as a Title V permit requirement.
Sub-Factor (4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
L&B Response: As L&B did not have any costs for remediation of environmental
damage, because there was not any environmental damage, we can only
describe the costs associated with fulfilling the requirements for reapplication for
the NPDES permit to discharge Noncontact Cooling Waste Water.
3

In a meeting on June 23, 2017, with Landon Davidson, PG, Regional Supervisor
for the Asheville Area; Linda Wiggs, Senior Environmental Specialist; Darlene
Kucken, Environmental Specialist, Dan March, Principal of Pisgah Environmental
Services; Wayne Merritt, Site Manager for L&B; and Steve Jenkins, CSP, REM,
HSE Manager for L&B; a plan of action was discussed that entailed a directive
from Mr. Davidson: (Paraphrased) "that for a permit application to go forward, a
complete engineering survey of Low& Bonar Inc.'s waste stream sealed by a
professional engineer would have to be conducted. We would have to have
complete knowledge of L&B's waste lines."
For this reason and to bring our discharge stream into one compliance point,
Low& Bonar Inc. has spent to date in excess of$533,000 to get to where we
could actually apply for a discharge permit. The breakout of this is $261,000 in
hardware (e.g. pumps, piping, monitoring equipment, de-chlorination equipment,
etc.), $170,000 in engineering and legal costs (e.g. waste water survey, mapping,
drawings, water quality testing, report writing, permit application, legal review of
work, etc.), and$102,000 in Labor and other expenses (e.g. asbestos removal
and disposal from old piping, installation work for pumps and piping, electrical
work for new monitoring and measuring equipment, etc.). Please note that since
our General Permit Application was returned, and additional testing and
calculations are required to be re-submitted for an Individual Permit, our costs
have continued to accumulate. We estimate another$10,000 to $15,000 will be
spent, which is not part of the $533,000 mentioned above.
While there were no costs due to environmental damage, Low & Bonar Inc, has
incurred significant costs of over a half million dollars to get to the point where we
could apply for the permit. As mentioned previously, the costs are continuing to
rise due to the General Permit Application being returned because of the Copper,
Zinc, and Calcium Carbonate parameters. Please note that the cost figures
mentioned above do not account for any of the Low & Bonar staff time that has
accrued during the managing of this issue.
Sub-Factor (5) The amount of money saved by the noncompliance;
L&B Response; Based off of NC DEQ DWR fee schedule and the estimated
costs of Quantative Tests required for the General Permit, if the testing were to
be conducted by Pisgah Environmental Services, Low& Bonar Inc. estimates the
total cost of the permit with testing included to be < $2500 per year. In the
overall operation of this plant, this is a minute amount per year. Avoiding paying
the annual permit fees and testing requirements was not the reason for
rescinding the permit.
4

Sub-Factor(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or
intentionally;
L&B Response: The terminology willfully or intentionally would imply a deceptive
motivation. Low& Boner Inc. did not intentionally or willfully operate without a
permit. A Low & Boner employee believed that all process wastewater was being
discharged to the Metropolitan Sewerage District. As Mr. Davidson indicated
during our meeting on June 23, 2017 (paraphrased) "we (Low&Boner Inc.)
need to know where all of our waste streams are coming from and where they
discharge."
This is where we think the disconnect was. It was a lack of knowledge of what
the definition of wastewater was, as well as the locations of discharge points from
all the equipment that use pass through purchased water for cooling. The
engineering survey has corrected this, and the future ISO 14001 program will
keep such misunderstandings from occurring again.
Sub-Factor (7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to
comply with programs over which the Environmental Management
Commission has regulatory authority; and
L&B Response: Low& Boner Inc. does not have any objective evidence that a
Notice of Violation occurred due to non-compliance with environmental programs
during the past 5 years.
Sub-Factor (8) The cost to the state of the enforcement procedures.
L&B Response: Low& Boner Inc. does realize that the state has incurred cost to
investigate and process this Notice of Violation. This is something that we
humbly apologize for. We are certainly willing to pay for the costs you have
incurred due to this incident.
We would ask that you please remember that we came to you as part of our due
diligence for becoming ISO 14001 Certified. The state did not incur costs
associated with having to track us down as a source of environmental
degradation to the Hominy Creek/French Broad River Basin. We hope you will
take our actions of Self-Reporting as an indicator that Low& Boner Inc. is on a
path of environmental stewardship. We are working to improve ourselves and
our environment.
For Factor (2)whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental
damage resulting from the violation;
L&B Response: As there was not any environmental damage that occurred due
to the violation Low& Bonar Inc, worked diligently to fulfill the requirements that
were given to us by Mr. Davidson and the DWQ on June 23, 2017 and follow-ups
5

by Ms. Wiggs regarding our testing parameters to get us to the point of
submitting a permit application. Ourpermit application was filed on December
18, 2017 with the Department of Water Quality.
Low & Bonar Inc. completed the following in 148 Days:
a. A comprehensive engineering study of all our equipment, their water usage
and discharge points.
b. Drains for both Sanitary and Storm Water were physically identified,
confirmed, and drawings updated.
c. All relevant drain lines for Steam Condensate were re-directed with
condensate pumps and return lines back to the boilers.
d. All relevant drain lines for non-contact cooling water and cooling tower blow
down were directed to one single compliance point—A small tank with a weir
to monitor flow.
e. A de-chlorination system was installed to lower the amount of chlorine in the
non-contact cooling water to acceptable levels before leaving the plant.
f. All roof drain discharge pipes were re-directed to the East ditch on Low&
Boner Inc.'s property instead of contributing to the neighboring drain system
to the North of our property line.
g. A flow meter and weir system were installed at the flood gates prior to the
East ditch. This aided in determining Ground Water infiltration rates.
h. A comprehensive Ground Water infiltration study was conducted in
conjunction with the engineering study.
i. Requested reports and testing were submitted to DWQ in a timely manner
depending on the parameters that were being analyzed.
j. A permit application was submitted on December 18, 2017.
From Low& Boner Inc.'s perspective, a lot of work and expense happened in
148 days. Today our expenses continue to rise as we sort out the returned
General Permit Application and prepare an Individual Permit Application.
6

For Factor (3) whether the violation was inadvertent or result of an accident;
L&B Response: As described in our answer to Factor(1) Sub-Factor(6) we
believe rescinding the permit was done out of lack of knowledge of the water
drainage system for the Low & Sonar Inc. site and the general terminology and
definition of wastewater. From our perspective it was an inadvertent innocent
mistake based off of incomprehension of the site and its discharges.
For Factor(4)whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any
previous violations;
L&B Response: To the best of our knowledge, other than this Notice of
Violation's civil penalty, Low & Sonar Inc. has not been assessed any civil
penalties for violations within the past five years.
For Factor (5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the
remaining necessary remedial actions;
L&B Response: While Low & Sonar Inc. is not having to remediate any
environmental impacts caused by the rescission of its General Permit
NCG500608, it has certainly incurred substantial costs with attempting to get
another permit re-established. We did engineering and infrastructure work to
substantially improve our processes to get us to the point where we applied for a
500000 series General Permit December 18, 2017. We were then notified March
23, 2018 that the General Permit application was being returned because our
Copper, Zinc, and hardness (Calcium Carbonate) levels were beyond the
allowable compliance parameters for a general permit. We now have performed
more testing up-stream and down-stream and are preparing to re-submit for an
Individual Permit. In the meantime we continue to incur testing costs, reporting
costs, and re-application costs.
Our focus going forward is to concentrate on the "E"portion of the NPDES
permit—Reducing water consumption and eliminating the waste stream if at all
possible. Instead of paying penalties, we would rather be investing in
recirculation of chilled water systems that would help eliminate the once through
use of city water and discharge to the Unnamed Tributary to Hominy Creek. Low
& Sonar Inc. asks that DEQ consider its cooperation with DEQ and the extensive
work done to address the matter in the last year, in evaluating this request for
remission.
Concluding Statements for Consideration:
It is an unfortunate set of circumstances that have led to the issuance of the Notice of
Violation Incident number 201701034. The lack of knowledge of site systems led to the
rescission of permit number NCG500608 in late September of 2013, and it was the self-
improvement journey of becoming ISO 14001 certified that led to the discovery that the

permit had been rescinded in error. While I can understand your displeasure with the
decision in 2013, 1 would ask you to evaluate the following:
If Low & Bonar Inc. had not wanted to become a more responsible company by seeking
ISO 14001 certification and had not a compliance obligations audit conducted by an
independent environmental firm occurred, would we have ever discovered this problem?
Please take under consideration we came to you in good faith with the disclosure that
we had inadvertently rescinded the permit, and we wanted to get back into compliance
and correctness with your department.
Low & Bonar Inc. is on an environmental journey to proper stewardship. This will entail
us to continually improve our Environmental Management System as dictated by the
ISO 14001 Standard. Our Environmental Management System will prevent future
mistakes such as this rescission from occurring. It will cause us to critically look at all
aspects and impacts to make decisions for improving and reducing pollution, as well as
for reducing uses of natural resources such as water. We have every intention of
becoming ISO 14001 certified this year and proceeding on ourjourney for continual
environmental improvement and stewardship. My intention is, in the not too distant
future, to introduce the Asheville Site to the Environmental Stewardship Initiative
program sponsored by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality,
Department of Environmental Assistance and Customer Service.
I hope that our decision and candor to inform you of an improper rescission and our
timely responses for correction through engineering studies and infrastructure
modifications provide proof that we are serious regarding the next steps for our
Environmental Stewardship journey. We sincerely apologize for the mistake and hope
we can establish a good working relationship with your department in the future.

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s)occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted,and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved,the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b)was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding theme status,directions for payment,and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions(Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore,it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission,You must complete and submit the enclosed"Request for Remission of Civil Penalties
Waiver of Rieht to an Administrative Hearine,and Stipulation of Facts"form within thirty(30) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed`Justification for

ASSESSMENT FACTORS
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State,to the public health,or to private
property resulting from the violation;
All effluent violations may be detrimental to surface waters,but may not be immediately quantified.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
NCG500608 was rescinded September 27,2013.The facility continues to discharge without a permit equating to a
discharge duration of 1,642 days based on the assessment date of March 27,2018,Due to improvements made at the
facility,the discharge of wastewater has decreased in volume from 51,830 gpd(July 2017)to 15,384 gpd(November
2017). Based on these flow volumes,the total wastewater discharged without a permit approximates 71,162,590 gallons
(1,373 days * 51,830 gallons)for the period from permit rescission to approximately July 1,2017 and 4,138,296 gallons
(269 days * 15,384 gallons)for the period from after July 1,2017(15,384 gpd reading,after reductions in flow discharge
between July 2017 and November 2017)to assessment date of March 27,2018.
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
All effluent violations may be detrimental to surface waters,but may not be immediately quantified. Based on reports by
Low and Bonar,the wastewater discharge complies with applicable surface water standards with the exception of zinc,
copper,molybdenum and total residual chlorine.
4) The cost of rectifying the damage;.Estimated at$500,000 based on facility information.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
The money saved over a 1,642 day period of not paying the annual general permit fees and not performing the required
analyses are estimated at$2000. The facility would also save the amount it would costs to discharge to MSD,the local
sewer authority, which the facility indicates all their wastewater was being discharged to.Based on a reported billing rate
of$4.50/CCF(centum cubic feet)(ref:MSD email dated 02/21/2018),the total savings of not sending the wastewater to
municipal sewer as reported is estimated at$453,013.35(75,300,886 gallons total/748 gallons(1 CCF=748 gallons)
$4.50/CCF)over the period from permit rescission to assessment date of February 20,2018.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally; Incorrect information was provided to the Division to
support the rescission of the general permit CDC NCG500608.There is no information available to the Division that
suggests this rescission request was willful or intentional however the documentation provided to support rescission
exhibits a high degree of negligence.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
There is no prior record for Low and Bonar,the current owners.
8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures. oacusien•a nr:

Bonar Non-Contact Cooling Water
Permit No: NCG500608
Buncombe County
Dear Mr. Nauert:
On September 4, 2013, 1 conducted an inspection at the Bonar facility in Enka NC.
Present during the inspection were Landon Davidson with the Division of Water
Resources, Ben Farmer and Earl Cheatham with Sonar, and Dan March with Pisgah
Environmental Services. The facility has a General Wastewater Permit (NCG500608) for
the discharge of Non-Contact Cooling water into waters of the State. However, it was
reported during the inspection that Bonar is not discharging this water into the nearby
receiving stream, but into the Metropolitan Sewerage District (MSD) sewer system.
Therefore, the subject permit is not needed and it is suggested that Boner rescind this
permit. To rescind this permit simply send me (Linda.Wiaas(@ncdenr.aov) and Bob
Sledge (Bob.SledaeAncdenr cov) with the Central Office permitting staff an email stating
the permit is no longer needed by Boner. I will confer with Bob Sledge there is no longer
a discharge and the permit can be rescinded.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments.
If you or your staff have any questions, please call me at 828-296-4500.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Present during the inspection were Landon Davidson (Division of Water Resources), Ben Farmer and Earl
Cheatham (Bonar), and Daniel March (Pisgah Environmental Services).
With the assistance of Mr. March, Boner personnel attempted to delineate historic pipelines,their contents, -
point of origin and endpoint. Their evaluation determined all pipes that carry any type of wastewater go to
the onsite lift station for discharge to the Metropolitan Sewerage District(MSD) line. The content of these
lines is comingled industrial process wastewater, domestic wastewater, non-contact cooling wastewater,
along with ground water infiltration and stormwater inflows (I & 1). If indeed all wastewater from this facility
is discharged to MSD and not to waters of the State,then it is not necessary to maintain wastewater permit
coverage.
The current water quality permit(NCG500608) held by Boner is a General Wastewater Permit specifically
for the discharge of Non-Contact Cooling wastewater to waters of the State. No other wastewater(i.e.
industrial process wastewater, domestic wastewater) can legally be discharged with this General Permit.
Therefore,the comingled wastewater mentioned above is not allowed to be discharged to waters of the
State under this permit, under any circumstances.
Boner would have to apply for an Individual Wastewater Permit if they wanted to discharge those
wastewaters to the stream. This site has been down this road historically and had gotten out of the
wastewater business when it disassembled/closed out its wastewater treatment units.
If you want to discharge under the current General Wastewater Permit you will have to separate out the
Non-Contact Cooling water from other wastewater, analyze that water for compliance with the Effluent
Limitations in Part I A.(1), and submit up to date Biocide/Chemical Treatment work sheets for each chemical
used.
Given that Boner is discharging to the MSD system and not to waters of the State, it is suggested Boner
request the General Wastewater Permit(NCG500608) be rescinded.

there was an NPDES Individual Wastewater Permit(NC0000299)associated with their
industrial process wastewater. That permit was rescinded in 2002 when wastewater
was pumped to MSD via a lift station.

local permits, but does not have Boner as a SIU/CIU.

assistance while conducting the inspection, as well as the assistance of Mr. Gaddy and Mr.
Trantham. A summary of the inspection is provided with this letter.
As we discussed on-site,the Division will continue to assist you with determining appropriate
t sampling points. An updated stormwater pollution prevention plan should be completed within 90
days s of the effective date of the new permit(and annually thereafter). Following the determination
of the sampling points for quantitative and qualitative sampling, along with completion of the
updated plan, the Division expects that Colbond will resolve the existing non-compliance issues
noted in the inspection report.
The Division also recommends that Colbond work with Enka Water Control to ensure that the
stormwater outfall remains clear of debris, and that the vegetation is regularly trimmed to allow
easy access.
Please contact me at(828) 296-4665 or Susan.A.Wilsonnncdenr.gov, if I can be of any further
assistance.

Inspection Summary:
Division of Water Quality staff(Susan A. Wilson and Jeff Menzel)met with Mr. Jeremy Nauerl(Quality, Health, Safety and
Environmental Manager)at the site on August 25, 2009. Colbond extrudes polymer pellets to manufacture nonwoven
fabric used for carpet backing, in the construction industry,etc.
Part of the north end of the site has been sold to Fletcher Partners and is in the process of demolition. Colbond owns the
southern portion of the site and leases much of that space.A non-profit corporation (Enka Water Control)was formed
among the various site owners to control the dike, Flood pumps, and outfalls. This scenario makes for complications in
determining an appropriate monitoring outfall that is the sole responsibility of Colbond and that will be representative of
runoff from Colbond's site.
A tour was conducted of the exterior of the facility, observing the potential stormwater exposure areas, outfalls, and site
conditions During the visit,the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan manual was reviewed, operational activities and
existing stormwater exposures were discussed. The stormwater permit is currently up for renewal and some of the
proposed changes were discussed with Mr. Nauert(especially regarding the"tiered"aspect of the permit).
As noted in the inspection questionnaire section,the stormwater pollution prevention plan has not been properly updated I'
(this plan should be updated within 90 days of the effective date of the new permit and annually thereafter). Due to the
.state of flux of the site,the qualitative and quantitative monitoring was not conducted as required by the permit. Based on
conversation with Mr. Nauert during the site visit, and resolution of the appropriate monitoring areas-this noncompliance
will be remedied after issuance of the current permit(if not before).
Secondary containment surrounds existing fuel tank areas. The size of the secondary containment is unknown -but
should be stated and provided within the stormwater pollution prevention plan.Any stormwater from the these areas can
be pumped out(after ensuring there is no petroleum contamination). No vehicle maintenance is conducted on-site.
Again, at this time the Division and Mr. Nauert determined the northern edge of the property line at the east side ditch is
an appropriate location for analytical and qualitative monitoring. As disucssed on-site,Colbond may also wish to perform
analytical monitoring upstream of its site to ensure that any runoff from upstream impacts do not adversely affect
Colbond's analytical monitoring results.
The monitoring location for the west side is a bit more complex. Monitoring may need to be continued at the existing
westside outfall location if the upstream storm drain area is not feasible. In addition, the stormwater drains should be
reviewed more thoroughly in light of the current demolition to determine what drainage pipes are still viable and what
Colbond is responsible for. Colbond should discuss with this office what the final decision is with regard to qualitative and
analytical monitoring sites for the west side of the facility.
The Division recomends Colbond work with its nonprofit partner, Enka Water Control,to ensure that the stormwater outfall
(westside)remains clear of debris and the vegetation is trimmed enough to allow easy access.

Comment: The stormwater pollution prevention plan has not been updated annually
as required by the permit. The plan needs to be updated with respect to the current
conditions (the division of property) and it needs to be updated annually.
The older plan did have the majority of components listed above, but the permittee
should ensure the all components of the stormwater pollution prevention plan are
included and updated.
The Division will require the updated plan to be completed within 90 days of the
effective date of the new permit.

SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
i
The Permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan,herein after referred tons 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: _
1. - 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 ofthe 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 aTMDL has been established,and
what the pammeter(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 resent in the stormwater discharge from.each outfall.
P g
(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 ofmaterials,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.
(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 accordance with the
requirements found in Part IQ, Standard Conditions,Section B,Paragraph 5. The
permittee shall re-certify annually that the so rmwater outfalls have been evaluated for
the presence of non-stormwater discharges. .- _ Y
Part 11 Page l of

Permit No.NCS000179
2. 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 perrnittee 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 ranoff 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 III 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 storrnwater 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 stomrwater 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 storrawater 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 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. - -
Pert II Page2of8

Permit No.NCS000179
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.mesa,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.
5. 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
-- positiou(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. - - - -
7. 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. Each
annual update shall include a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the BMPs listed
in the BMP Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan.
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, i
Paragraph 5)to the Director that the changes have been made.
8. Facility Inspections.Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur as part of
the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a minimum on a semi-annual
schedule,once during the first half of the year(January to June),and once during the second half
of the year(July to December),with at least 60 days separating inspection dates(unless
performed more frequently than semi-annually). These facility inspections are different from,
and in addition to,the stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring required in Part B B and C
of this permit.

9. Implementation. The pear ittee shall implement the Plan. Implementation of the Plan shall
include documentation of all monitoring,measurements, inspections,maintenance activities, and
training provided to employees,including the log of the sampling data and of actions 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 the Director's authorized representative immediately upon request.
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). Sampling results shall be reported as described in Part III, Section
E.
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 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.

of the benchmark range,for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row
(consecutive); _
Then:The permittee shall:
1. 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 range,for all parameters at that outfall.
3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period,the permittee is required to submit a monthly
monitoring report indicating"No Flow."
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

Dear Permittee:
The facility listed above is covered under NPDES General Permit NCG500000. NCG500000 expires
on July 31,2007. Federal(40 CFR 122.41)and North Carolina(15A NCAC 2H.0105(e))regulations require
that permit renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit. If
you have already mailed a renewal request,you may disregard this notice.
To satisfy this requirement,the Division must receive a renewal request postmarked no later than
February 1.2007. Failure to request renewal by this date may result in a civil penalty assessment. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request. This renewal notice is being sent
well in advance of the due date so that you have adequate time to prepare your application.
If any discharge previously covered under NCG500000 will occur after July 31,2007,the
CoC must be renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North Carolina
General Statute 143-215.1;unpermitted discharges of wastewater may be assessed civil penalties of up to
$25,000 per day.
If all discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this CoC [or if you have other
questions],contact me at the telephone number or e-mail address listed below.

Dear Mr.Earley:
The Division of Water Quality has received information in the letter of October, 2003,concerning a modification
to add non-contact cooling tower blowdown from a cooling tower the BASF Corporation on the same manufacturing site
currently operated at that time under their permit(NCG500607) and the use of the biocide Garratt-Callahan Fotm filar 312
& 315 in the added cooling tower blowdown at Enka facility. Our review has revealed that the biocide Garratt-Callahan
Fonnular 312 and 315 should be appropriate for use in your application. Therefore, the Division of Water Quality grants
approval to Colbond Inc. to add the non-contact cooling water and use the above mentioned biocides in its additional non-
contact cooling tower blowdown at the stated dosage rates and discharge conditions.
Should you plan to change to a different biocide in the future, you should contact this office and submit the
appropriate information for approval prior to the change.
If you have any questions,please contact Mr. Bradley Bennett at(919)733-5083,ext. 525.

Re: Application for General Permit Modification for Colbond,Inc.,Enka Site
Dear Sir or Madam:
Earlier this year, Colbond, Inc. at the Enka Site obtained a Certificate of Coverage (NCG500608)
for the discharge of non-contact cooling water to Hominy Creek. BASF Corporation on the
same manufacturing site also obtained a similar permit(NCG500607). This application is for the
modification of the Colbond permit. The modifications are:
1. Add cooling tower blowdown
Actually,the cooling tower blowdown Colbond is adding is from cooling towers that BASF
currently operates and are a part of their permit. These cooling towers will be transferred to
Colbond. See attachment A,drawing C1ENK002.025, Rev. 0, source#2.
2. Add boiler blowdown
Colbond is adding new gas-feed steam boilers. This application is for the blowdown from
these new boilers.
The new arrangement is shown on the enclosed diagram(Attachment A, drawing Cl ENK002.25,
Rev. 0) of the water sources and planned discharge points.
The following items are included in this application package:
1. 3 copies of the application.
2. 3 copies of a USGS quad map showing site location.
3. 3 copies of a drawing C1ENK002.025,Rev. 0 showing the pathway of the cooling water
discharges.
4. 3 copies of drawing C 1 ENK001.025, Rev. 0 showing the various point sources.
5. 3 copies each of three (3) different Worksheet-Form I01's for the chemicals used.
6. 3 copies of MSD's for the biocides and rust inhibitor used.
It is our understanding that for the modification another$80.00 fee is not required.

This is in follow-up to yourrequest concerning what MSD considers as unpolluted wastewater and
wouldnot accept. The MSD Sewer Use Ordinance defines unpolluted wastewater, (section 1,03-75),as
"any wastewater which is substantially free of pollutants and is discharge from the following: -
I) min downspout and drains,or;
2) footing drains,or;
3) storm drains,or;
4) cooling water systems
5) aquifer restoration or well development
The ordinance goes on to define cooling water,(section 1.03.14),as"the wastewater discharged from
any use such as air conditioning,cooling or refrigeration or to which the only pollutant added is heat." In
section 5.03,Specific Prohibited Waste,the ordinance states,"any=polluted wastewater as defined in
subsection 1.03.75except as specifically permitted by the Engineer-Manager."
As you can clearly seen,the MSD Ordinance does not allow for the addition of unpolluted water into the
collection system.
If you have any questions concerning this issue,please contact this office, -
Sincerely,
Mon _Payne"

Glutaraldehyde-Based Microbiocides
Environmental Fate Studies
Introduction
Studies were undertaken to determine the environ. formed when glutaraldehyde is allowed to degrade
mental fate of glutaraldehyde, the active ingredient in the presence of river water and sediment. Both
in a variety of antimicrobial products.The purpose aerobic and anaerobic conditions were employed in
of these studies was to determine the products determining the fate of glutaaldehyde.
Glutaraldehyde Metabolizes Completely in Aerobic and Anaerobic Systems
Aerobic System
Glutaraldehyde had a half-life of approximately 12 dioxide- (Scheme 1). No traces of either glutaralde-
hours. During this period,the glutaraldehyde was hyde or glutaric acid were found after 48 hours.

Re: Application for General Permit Modification for Colbond,Inc.,Enka Site
Dear Sir or Madam:
Earlier this year, Colbond,Inc. at the Enka Site obtained a Certificate of Coverage (NCG500608)
for the discharge of non-contact cooling water to Hominy Creek. BASF Corporation on the
same manufacturing site also obtained a similar permit(NCG500607). This application is for the
modification of the Colbond permit. The modifications are:
1. Add cooling tower blowdown
Actually,the cooling tower blowdown Colbond is adding is from cooling towers that BASF
currently operates and are a part of their permit. These cooling towers will be transferred to
Colbond. See attachment A,drawing CIENK002.025, Rev. 0, source#2.
2. Add boiler blowdown
Colbond is adding new gas-fired steam boilers. This application is for the blowdown from
these new boilers.
The new arrangement is shown on the enclosed diagram(Attachment A, drawing Cl ENK002.25,
Rev. 0) of the water sources and planned discharge points.
The following items are included in this application package:
1. 3 copies of the application.
2. 3 copies of a USGS quad map showing site location.
3. 3 copies of a drawing C1ENK002.025,Rev. 0 showing the pathway of the cooling water
discharges.
4. 3 copies of drawing C I ENK001.025, Rev. 0 showing the various point sources.
5. 3 copies each of three(3) different Worksheet-Form 101's for the chemicals used.
6. 3 copies of MSD's for the biocides and rust inhibitor used.
It is our understanding that for the modification another$80.00 fee is not required.
