Re: Re -submittal of Erosion Control Permit Application for
Blue Ridge Concrete, Inc.
Dear Michael,
Based on your Letter of Disapproval dated December 19, 2007, we have revised the
plans accordingly. Please find enclosed:
a one (1) complete set of revised plays
We have revised the plans according to the following responses in the order they are
listed in the `reasons for disapproval' letter dated December 19, 2007:
1. We have shown additional Limits of Disturbance around the proposed
septic area. This additional area of 0.06 Acres did not change the total
Limits of Disturbance area.
2. We have added applicable notes to Sheet C.3.2 which refer to leaving the
xi�ting erosion control measures intact.
3. The Stormwater plan has been prepared by another firm and our
understanding is that it has been submitted and is under review by the
Buncombe County Stormwater Department.
Thank you for your valuable time in reviewing this re -submittal. Please don't hesitate to
call with any questions.
Sincerely,
CAVANAUGH & ASSOCIATES, P.A.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
WPC Project # WPC3407.00168
January 22, 2008
The purpose of the construction activity that is the subject of this Stormwater Management
Plan is to build a concrete batch plant that will supply needed concrete to construction
projects in the community. Preparation of this Stormwater Management Plan for the planned
Blue Ridge Concrete facility is a requirement of the Buncombe County Planning and
Development Department. The plan contains facility and contact information, a site
description, stormwater calculations, a narrative that includes the construction sequence and
the estimated cost of permanent stormwater measures, and a copy of the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) prepared for the facility, which outlines operations and
maintenance procedures associated with the stormwater controls. Site figures are included in
the SWPPP.

3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
IYPC Project # IYPC.3407.00168
January 22, 2008
The Blue Ridge Concrete facility is located to the west of US Highways 19123, off Old Mars
Hill Road in Weaverville, Buncombe County, North Carolina (see Figure I of the SWPPP —
Blue Ridge Concrete Site Topographic Map). The site is bordered to the north by
undeveloped land; to the east by Murphy Hill Road beyond which is undeveloped land; to the
west by a stream beyond which is undeveloped land; and to the south by undeveloped land.
The site address is 50 Murphy Hill Road; however, the address of 110 0ld Mars Hill Road is
also associated with the property.
3.1 GENERAL SITE FEATURES
This property currently consists of approximately 12.95 acres of undeveloped land, of which
approximately 3.93 acres will be developed as the concrete plant that is the subject of this
Stormwater Management Plan. The remaining 9.02 acres will be undisturbed and reserved
for undetermined future development. The 3.93-acre concrete plant will include an office
building, a storage building, a silo and two conveyor belt systems (approximately 0.06 acres
in total). The remaining areas are 2.66 acres of gravel base, including an unpaved parking lot
for employee and concrete truck parking that is planned near the southern boundary of the
concrete plant, 0.277 acres of vegetated, landscaped areas, and 0.933 acres of undeveloped
land. A 50-foot diameter, berriled, truck washout area will be constructed near the fiortheastf
corner of the concrete plant. A stormwater retention area is located at the: south "end of the
property. Refer to Figure 2 for additional site details.
3.2 SITE DRAINAGE FEATURES
The 1997 "Weaverville, NC" United State Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle
topographic maps indicates that the slope is in a southwesterly direction across the site with.
the elevation ranging from 2,165 to 2,105 feet above mean sea level (see Figure 1). The
existing drainage pattern in the area of the planned concrete plant is mainly southwesterly
flow in accordance with the topography; however, at the western edge of the area, drainage
flows west through the sloped undeveloped area of the site towards Flat Creek.
The planned drainage pattern is described in the following paragraphs. Surface water (via
the onsite stormwater retention area) will be discharged during the 25-year rain event to an
unnamed existing drainage ditch. Two drainage areas are planned for the site.

• Drainage Area 1 (DAl) drains the gravel and building pad areas. Surface flow is
directed to the stormwater retention area located along the southern boundary of the
concrete plant. The truck washout area is designed not to discharge storinwater or
concrete truck washout water.
C DA2 is located in the vegetated area along the northern boundary of the concrete
plant. The drainage in this area flows southward to the stormwater retention area
located along the southern boundary of the concrete plant.
Based on information provided by the Buncombe County Soil and Water Conservation
District, soils at the site consist of Clifton Series soils. Clifton Series soils consist of very
deep, well drained soils on gently sloping to very steep ridges and side slopes of the Southern
Appalachian Mountains. Slopes are 2 to 95 percent. The soils formed in' residuum
weathered from intermediate and mafic igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks such as
hornblende gneiss, antphibolite, and gneiss or schist that is high in ferromagnesian minerals.
Near the type location mean annual air temperature is about 51 degrees Fahrenheit and mean
annual precipitation is about 53 inches. Clifton Series soils at the site are in Hydrologic Soil
Group B.
4.0 CALCULATIONS
4.1 RUNOFF VOLUME
The difference between pre- and post -construction runoff volumes was calculated as 15,500
gallons using the Discrete SCS Method. Calculations and applicable reference values are

4.2 TRUCK WASHOUT SYSTEM
The truck washout system is a conical bermed basin 50 feet in diameter at ground surface and
10 feet deep. The side of the truck Washout basin will be sloped 4,1 to a bottom diameter of
45 feet. Each concrete truck will be washed out at the end of each workday with up to 150
gallons. Wash water will be captured by and retained in the truck washout basin. As water

accumulates within the basin a floating pump could be used, when sufficient water is present,
as recycle water for truck washout operations. Water�WOLJld then be pumped from the basin
and used to help rinse sediment from the trucks, thereby reducing the total amount of fresh
water used during the process. As needed, maintenance will occur to maintain the basin side
walls and the surrounding berm.
The capacity of the truck washout basin,—118,000 gallons with one foot of freeboard
(-14,000 gallons), exceeds the combined volume (22,500 gallons) of 1) washing operations,
2) one foot of freeboard required by North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources, and 3) precipitation, resulting from a 25-year 24-Dour storm, 5.25 inches. Even in
the case in which the truck washout basin is filled with 5 feet of washout sediment, 55,000
gallons can be contained in the basin while still maintaining 1 foot of freeboard. Calculations
and applicable reference values are shown below in Table 2,
The truck washout basin, surrounding berm, water level, and the amount of material within
the basin will be inspected and monitored daily. As discussed above, the wash out basin will
fill over time with wash water, rain water in varying amounts, sand, aggregate and minimum
amounts of cement. Once the washout basin has filled with five feet of washout material the
material will be excavated and disposed of properly. if needed, the water within the washout
basin will be pumped from the washout basin into the water storage tank to be used in the
concrete bitching operations. This will accommodate settling of the truck drum contents,
maintain the required free board, as well as allow for potential water use and prevent any
wastewater effluent overflow of the washout collection area.
The facility's standard operating procedure will be to monitor pl-1, by Method 9040C, pl-1
Electrometric Measurement, of the washout collection area on a weekly basis. Based on the
measurements, Flue Midge Concrete will manually adjust the pH in the basin to maintain the
water within the regulated pH limit of 6.0 to 9,0.

Methods used to stabilize the site include the following:
1. Maintaining a gravel bed across unpaved and non -landscaped areas of the site to
reduce the potential for ponding and promote flow to the Stormwater retention area.
2. Maintain rip rap at the discharge (west end) of the stormwater retention area to
control flow, particularly during storm events.
3. Maintaining a grassy retention basin and a grassy berm around the truck washout
basin.

Blare Ridge Concrete Stormwaler Management Plan
Weaverville, North Carolina
1.0 INTRODUCTION
JfPC Project # WPC3407.00168
January 22, 7008
A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is a requirement of the State of North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit No. NCG140000 for Ready Mix
facilities. A SWPPP for the Blue Ridge Concrete facility must be implemented as stated in
the permit conditions, and if requested by the NCDENR, it must be submitted for review. If
the plan is found to be deficient, NCDENR will require the facility to amend the plan and
submit a schedule to correct deficiencies within 30 days.
A SWPPP addresses ways to manage, operate, and react to minimize the likelihood of
causing storm water pollution. This SWPPP provides a flexible means to develop site -
specific measures for storm water pollution reduction and control.
The SWPPP is designed to achieve two main objectives:
1. Identify potential sources of pollution; and
2. Describe the methods by which the facility is to reduce the amount of pollutants
carried in the discharging stormwater to maintain compliance with the state permit
requirements.
A copy of the North Carolina Storm Water General Permit No. NCG 140000 for Ready Mix
facilities is provided in this plan. The on -site representative and appropriate personnel
assigned to the Blue Ridge Concrete facility should become familiar with the specific terms
and conditions of the permit.

The Blue Ridge Concrete facility is located to the west of US Highways 19/23, off Murphy
Hill Road in Weaverville, Buncombe County, North Carolina. The site is bordered to the
north by undeveloped land, to the east by Murphy Hill Road beyond which is undeveloped
land, to the west by a stream beyond which is undeveloped land, and to the south by
undeveloped land.
3.1 SITE CONDITIONS
A facility map is included as Figure 2. The site consists of approximately 3.93 acres of
which 2.997 acres are to be developed as a concrete plant; the remaining 0.933 acres is
undisturbed. The concrete plant includes an office building, a storage building, a silo, an
aggregate storage area, and two conveyor belt systems. A twelve -space employee parking lot
is located near the south boundary of the concrete plant. An additional parking area (to the
north of the employee parking lot) is used for nine concrete trucks. The remaining areas are
gravel paved or landscaped.
An approximately 50-foot-diameter truck washout basin is located near the northeast corner
of the concrete plant. An approximately 200-foot-long by 30-foot wide stormwater retention
basin is located along the southern edge of the facility limit. The retention basin then drains
down the existing drainage ditch draining to the south.
3.2 EXISTING SITE DRAINAGE FEATURES
"fhe 1997 "Weaverville, NC" United State Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle
topographic maps indicates that the slope is south to west across the site with the elevation
ranging from 2,165 to 2,105 feet above mean sea level (see Figure l — Blue Midge Colicrete
Site 'Topographic Map). Surface water (via the onsite storm water retention area) discharges
Page 4
Blue Ridge Concrete Stornmater Management Plan WPC Project # WPC3407.00168
Weaverville, North Carolina January 22, 2008
to an existing drainage ditch. No distinct water bodies were observed on the property. As
shown in Figure 3, there are two drainage areas noted on the site.
Drainage Area 1 (DAI) drains the gravel and building pad areas. Surface flow is directed to
the stormwater retention area located along the southern boundary of the concrete plant. The
truck washout area is designed not to discharge stormwater or concrete truck washout water.
DA2 is located in the vegetated area along the northern boundary of the concrete plant. The
drainage in this area flows southward to the stormwater retention area located along the
southern boundary of the concrete plant.
4.0 SOURCE POLLUTANTS
4.1 SOURCE IDENTII+`ICATION
At the Blue Ridge Concrete facility, the activity with the greatest potential for stormwater
pollution includes the washing out of the concrete trucks,

There is one outdoor feature at the Blue Ridge Concrete facility that has the potential for
carrying stormwater pollutants offsite, as follows:
G The truck washout area, located in the northeast corner of the concrete plant. 'rhe
area is not covered and is open to precipitation, although runoff is contained within
the area due to the depth of the washout area (10 feet), and runoff is prevented from
entering the truck washout area due to the surrounding berm around the perimeter of
the washout basin area.
4.3 ASSESSMENT OF POTENTIAL POLLUTION SOURCES
Potential pollution sources are unknown at this time due to the site not being in operation.
4.4 SPILL HISTORY
The operator is not aware of any significant quantities of toxic or hazardous materials that
have spilled, leaked, or otherwise accidentally been released in area exposed to precipitation
or drained to stormwater conveyance. A record of spills, leaks or similar incidents shall be
maintained with this SWPPP and updated as necessary in accordance with the terms of the
NCDENR NPDES General Permit No. NCG 140000 for Ready Mix facilities.
5.0 BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
A list of Best Management Practices (BMPs) is provided to stabilize the site and maintain
stormwater runoff controls. Drawings for BMPs such as the truck washout basin and the
stormwater retention basin are included in Figure 4.
BMPs include;
I. Truck washout basin area should be bermcd to block stormwater surface flow from
entering the basin. Inspect truck washout basin sediment level and clean out when
necessary.
2. Inspect and maintain stormwater inlet to retention basin located at southeast corner of
parking area for sediment buildup.
3. Inspect and maintain sediment retention basin to ]seep sediment volume below the
calculated cleanout point.
Page 6
Blue Ridge Concrete Stormwater Management Plan
Weaverville, North Carolina
WPC Project # WPC3407.00168
January 22, 2008
4. Inspect vehicle and truck parking area for signs of any petroleum release and clean as
necessary. This will prevent petroleum from transporting to retention basin and on to
the creek located to the west of the facility.
5. Inspect and maintain outlet protection practices for damage, erosion, and scouring.
Storniwater outlets should contain Turf Reinforcement Mats covered with rip -rap or
lined with sufficient rip -rap along with rock check dams to reduce the effects of
sediment transport and soil erosion.
6. Keep all areas grassed to control sediment load of runoff. A uniform perennial
vegetative cover with a density of at least 80% should be established on all unused
areas.
7. Maintain a clean and sediment -free site entrance.
6.0 EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROLS
Crosion must be kept to a minimum and controls must be implemented or in place to comply
with permit conditions. An Erosion and Sedimentation Control flan was prepared for the
site by Cavanaugh & Associates, P.A. in December 2007 and submitted separately to
Buncombe County for review.
6.1 STABILIZATION MEASURES
Stabilization measures shall include temporary and permanent seeding and mulching.
Stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the site that are
not used.
6.2 STABILIZATION AFTER ADVERSE WEATHER
When adverse weather occurs, the initiation of stabilization measures should begin as soon as
possible, but no later than the 141h day after ceasing activity in the affected area. Stabilization
measures, including temporary and permanent seeding and mulching. Stabilization areas
must be inspected and documented as required by Section 8 of this plan.
6.3 STRUCTURAL PRACTICES
Silt fences may be used to control runoff from the piles of materials to be used by the plant.
If; applicable, any and all existing catch basins affected by the activity will be protected by
the use of silt fence around the opening, the use of hay bales and other BMPs.
Page 7
Blue Ridge Concrete Slormwater Management Plan WPC Project # WPC3407.00168
Weaverville, North Carolina Janua)y 22, 2008
6.4 STRUCTURAL PRACTICES
All areas of sheet flow should be protected by silt fence and in accordance with BMPs. If
necessary, geotextile and/or rip rap should be utilized to minimize scour.
7.0 POLLUTION CONTROLS
Pollution controls are necessary to minimize impacts to stormwater runoff and satisfy permit
conditions.
7.1 NO WASTE MATERIAL
No waste materials shall be discharged into the water of the state. Waste materials must be
properly disposed. Waste materials that must be managed separately include paint,
degreasers, used'oil and filters, antifreeze, cleaning solutions, vehicle batteries, and hydraulic
fluid.
7.2 EXCAVATED MATERIALS
All excavated materials, if applicable, shall be removed to an appropriate oftisite disposal
facility in accordance with North Carolina Solid Waste Regulations.
7.3 OFFSITE VEHICLE TRACKING/DUST & PARTICLE CONTROL
Offsite vehicle tracking of dirt soils, sediments, or generation of dust offsite shall' be
minimized to the maximum extent practical. Exits consisting of gravel shall be located at
any point where traffic accesses public streets. Dust control shall be provided.
7.4 PETROLEUM PRODUCTS
All equipment will be observed daily for spills and leaks ofpetrolcum products.
All petroleum product spills shall be quickly cleaned up using absorbent materials • as
necessary and removed to an appropriate off site disposal area.
All petroleum products stored on site will be protected by secondary containment. This will
consist of a containment arca with storage capacity to contain the volume of the largest
container stored plus sufficient freeboard to contain a 25-year 24-hour storm event.
Page 8

Weaverville, North Carolina
WPC Project # WPC3407.00168-
January 22, 2008
Any work which may involve the release of petroleum products or chemicals shall be
performed in an area subject to minimal run-on and as far from stormwater inlets as possible.
Maintenance personnel shall place drip pans under equipment to catch any leaks or spills,
when feasible. To the greatest extent possible, no work, which might result in spills, shall be
performed in open areas while it is raining or when rain is threatening. Equipment must be
attended when being fueled. Fuel tanks should not be overfilled.
Any spill of a reportable quantity must be immediately reported to the appropriate
government authority. At no time should petroleum products enter waters of the state.
7.5 PROTECTION OF POTABLE WATER WELLS
At this time there are no potable wells at the Blue Ridge Concrete facility.
7.6 NON-STORMWATER DISCHARGES
There are no non-stormwater discharges at the Blue Ridge facility.
7.6.1 Non-Stormwater Certification
Non-stormwater discharges are not permitted under the general permit.
8.0 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE & GOOD HOUSEKEEPING
Areas, which have vegetative cover, shall be reseeded and mulched when less than 80%

A comprehensive site evaluation shall be conducted annually by Blue Ridge Concrete
personnel trained in storm water management. The evaluation shall verify that all elements
of the SWPPP (i.e_ site map, potential pollutant sources, structural and non-structural controls
to reduce pollutants in industrial storm water discharges) are accurate. Based on the results
of the evaluation, the description of potential pollutant sources and pollution prevention
measures and controls shall be revised as appropriate within two weeks following such
inspections. Any necessary changes to the SWPPP will be made in a timely manner, but in
no case, more than 12 weeks after the inspection. Documentation of the evaluation will be
maintained using the form in Appendix C for the Annual Comprehensive Site Compliance
Evaluation.
9.1.2 Other Inspection Requirements
Routine inspections are conducted weekly and monthly at the facility, depending on the
nature of the inspection.
The equipment associated with the dispensing and storage of petroleum and other chernicals
is visually inspected during each transfer. Site personnel are instructed to immediately
report, to the Operations Manager, any noticeable releases or leaks from storage tanks,
piping, fuel pumps or nozzles. Releases or leaks from equipment are also to be reported
immediately.
Stormwater management system structures and the truck washout basin are formally
inspected monthly using the Storm Water Management Monthly Inspection Checklist
(Appendix D).
9.2 EMPLOYEE TCZAINING
9.2.1 Initial Training Program
All employees at the Blue Ridge Concrete facility shall receive initial training regarding
potential causes of pollution as well as practical methods for reducing pollutant contact with

management. This SWPPP will be located in the office and will be available for review by
all new employees.
9.2.3 Ongoing Education
Annual training of facility employees is conducted to present updated information and to
maintain a level of employee awareness regarding storm water pollution prevention practices.
9.3 SPILL PREVENTION AND RESPONSE PROCEDURES
9.3.1 Operations
The following guidelines will be followed in the event of a spill or other discharge of oil/or
hazardous substances.
Any employee who discovers a discharge of oil and/or hazardous substances should
determine the source of the spill. If the source; of the spill is immediately obvious, the
employee should report the spill to the Operations Manager and/or to the appropriate
designee.
If a spill occurs, regardless of the volume, that is not fully contained and has the potential to
reach the water of the State of North Carolina, then the NCDENR shall be contacted along
with the Operations Manager.
The Operations Manager will determine the cause of the spill, take action to clean up the
spill, and implement measures to prevent a reoccurrence. Additional technical assistance is
available through company resources.
9.3.2 Discovery and Identification
Once a discharge has been discovered and reported to the Operations Manager, an effort
should be made to determine the type of discharge. The following information, if available,
should be recorded on the Spill Report Form found in Appendix B:
Page, 11
Blue Ridge Concrete Stormwater Management Plan
weaverville, North Carolina
WPC Project # WPC3407.00168
January 22,. 2008
a Time of discharge;
O Location and name of nearest waterway or water body;
o Rate and direction of material released (to the greatest extent possible);
o Status of the discharge or release;
o Meteorological conditions prevelant (i.e. rainfall, or pending rainfall which will
rapidly transport the discharged quantity); and
o Once the discharge has been identified, the District Manager will make notifications
to appropriate officials. The following information should be provided:
• The identity of the material;
• The time the discharge began;
• Where the discharge occurred;
• The direction of flow;
91 Cloud cover or the probability of rainfall;
13 How much material was originally present, including type and size of tank or
truck (container); and
13 The condition of the container.
Small quantity spills will be mixed with soil or other absorbent material. The contaminated
absorbent will then be removed and disposed of in accordance with applicable rules,
regulations and guidelines.
If a spill is too large to be cleaned -up using the procedures described above, the District
Manager will contact Local and State authorities for guidance regarding the proper removal
and management of the released product.
Any product which escapes or is spilled outside of secondary containment structures will be
immediately diked using absorbent booms, soil, straw bales or other material to restrict the
flow of product and prevent the discharge to the storm water management system. 'All
contaminated absorbents and soils will be cleaned -up and disposed of in accordance with
applicable rules, regulations, and guidelines set forth by the State of North Carolina.
The materials listed below should be kept on hand at the Blue Ridge Concrete facility for use
in controlling/containing small spills of petroleum or other chemicals. These materials
should be kept in a weather-proof container and be accessible in areas where outside products
are stored at the facility.

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The Permittee shall develop a Stormwatcr Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as
the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this 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
stonmvater outfall(s) discharges, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate
storm sewer system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving
waters; and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge.
(b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities,
outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and
waste disposal practices.
(c) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of
industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas
and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each
outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations, existing
BMPs and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage area that is
impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants
which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility
during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill
impacts.
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in
accordance with the requirements found in Part I11, Standard Conditions, Section
B, Paragraph 5.
2. Stonnwater 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 stonnwater, including structural and
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following:
Part It Page 1 of 11
Permit No. NCG140000
(a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and econornic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stonnwater. Wherever practical, the pennittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and
manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority
chemicals, or storage of hazardous substances to prevent leaks and spills from
contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment devices are
connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be
controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be
secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates ill 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 accrEmufated
stonnwater. Accumulated stonnwater shall be released if found to be
uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management
Practices (13MPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease
separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater
detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be
based on the assessment ofpotential of sources to contribute significant quantities
of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges.
Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SI'R.P)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the
SPR.P shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stonnwater specific. Therefore, a SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may
not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common
elements of the SPCC with the SPRI' may be incorporated by reference into the SPR.P.
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of
inspections and maintenance activities of stonnwater control systems, plant equipment
and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of
these areas shall be incorporated into the program.

SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS - STOWMWATER
DISCHARGE
Stormwater associated with industrial activity that is not combined with process
wastewater
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until
expiration, the Permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial
activity that is not combined with process wastewater subject to the provisions of this
permit. Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified
below in Table 1.
For each parameter, the arithmetic mean of all analytical sampling results collected
during the term of the permit shall be calculated for each individual outfall. The
computed arithmetic mean is then compared to the cut-off concentrations listed below in
Table 2. if the arithmetic mean is less than the specified cut-off concentration for a given
parameter, then the facility is not required to continue annual analytical monitoring for
that parameter (at that outfall) during the remaining term of the permit unless a significant
change in facility operations or configuration occurs. If a cut-off concentration results in
discontinued analytical monitoring at an individual discharge outfall, the permittee is
required to maintain facility operations that ensure the continuation of stormwater runoff
quality.
The pennittee must perform analytical sampling of stormwater discharges during the first
and last year of the pennitcveragg regardless of cut-off concentration conditions.
Analytical results from sampling during the final year of the permit coverage must be
submitted with the permit renewal application. All analytical monitoring shall be
performed during a representative storm event.

Facilities which have any vehicle maintenance activity occurring on -site which uses more
than 55 gallons of new inotor oil per month when averaged over the calendar year shall
perform analytical monitoring as specified below in Table 3. This monitoring shall be
performed at all outfalls which discharge stormwater runoff from the vehicle maintenance
areas.
For each parameter, the arithmetic-incan of all analytical sampling results collected
during the coverage of the permit shall be calculated for each individual outfall. The
computed arithmetic mean is then compared to the cut-off concentrations listed below in
Table 4. If the arithmetic mean is less than the specified cut-off concentration for a given
parameter, then the facility is not required to continue annual analytical monitoring for
that parameter (at that outfall) during the remaining coverage of the permit unless a
significant change in facility operations or configuration occurs. If a cut-off
concentration results in discontinued analytical monitoring at an individual discharge
otttfall, the perntittee is required to maintain facility operations that ensure the
continuation of stormwater runoff quality.
The rermittee must nerform analvtical sampling during the first and last vear of the
permit coverage regardless of cut-off concentration conditions. Analytical results froth
sampling during the final year -of the permit coverage must be submitted with the permit
renewal application. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative

SECTION C: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS - PROCESS WASTEWATER'
This general pen -nit authorizes the discharge of process wastewater associated with four distinct
activities. 1) Vehicle and equipment cleaning - external surfaces; 2) Overflow from recycle
systems that receive stormwater runoff; 3) Wetting of raw material stockpiles; 4) Mixing drum
cleaning. Discharge of process wastewater generated by any other activity is not authorized
under this pen -nit. In the event that authorized process wastewaters commingle prior to
discharge, sampling the combined discharge will meet the conditions of this permit for those
separate activities, with respect to the annual sample. In the case of commingled process
wastewater, the most stringent of the applicable limits will apply.
Note: For facilities which route stormwater and all process wastewater to a recycle system,
no analytical monitoring of process wastewater discharges is required if that recycle
system discharges only as a result of a 10 year - 24 hour precipitation event.
Effective date of process wastewater discharge limits
The discharge limits promulgated in section C.2 through C.5 will be effective as of August
1, 2001, 24 months from the effective date of this permit. All other requirements of
sections C.2 through C.5 will be in effect as of the effective date of this: permit.
2. Process Wastewater Associated with Vehicie_and_Equipinent C_1_eanin
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the
Permittee is authorized to discharge process wastewater associated with vehicle and equipment
cleaning subject to the provisions of this permit, For the purposes of this permit, vehicle and
equipment cleaning is limited to the rinsing of the external surfaces of vehicles and equipment.
If detergents are used, they must be biodegradable and the pfl adjusted to 6 to 9 standard units.
Analytical monitoring of process wastewater associated with vehicle and equipment cleaning

20. Process Wastewater
For the purposes of this permit, process wastewater is wastewater generated from the
following activities:
(a) Vehicle and equipment cleaning operations. For the purposes of this permit, vehicle and
equipment cleaning is limited to the rinsing of the external surfaces of vehicles and
equipment. If detergents are used, they must be biodegradable and the wastewater pH
adjusted to 6 to 9 standard units
(b) Recycle system operations overflow discharge. Overflow discharge refers to a
discharge associated with an excessive precipitation event, which produces influent
that exceeds the design capacity of the system. By design, a recycle system is
closed loop and should not discharge on a routine or continuous basis. As such, the
routine or continuous discharge of process wastewater from recycle systems is not
authorized under this permit.
(c) Raw material stockpile wetting operations. This includes wetting for control of
temperature and moisture content. Washing of raw materials is not authorized
under this permit.
(d) Mixing druni-cleaning operations. This includes vehicle Inixing d111111 and facility
mixing drum cleaning.
21. Representative Storm Event
A storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall and that is prec ied by at least 72
hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm
event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2
hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a
rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours.
22. Representative Outfall Status
When it is established that the discharge of stormwater runoff from a single outfall is
representative of the discharges at multiple outfalls, the DWQ may grant representative
outfall status. Representative outfall status allows the permittee to perform analytical
monitoring at a reduced number of outfalls.
23. Secondary Containment
Spill containment for the contents of the single largest tank within the containment
structure plus sufficient freeboard to allow for the 25-year, 24-hour storm event.
