Dear Mr. Fields:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross, Jr, Secretary
North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
Coleen ff. Sullins, Director
Division of Water Quality
On Thursday June 26, 2008, Ms. Stephanie Brixey of the NC Division of Water Quality's Raleigh Regional
Office (RRO) conducted a site visit to observe the upgrade of the pit near the wash bay area. The assistance of
Mr. Charles Stackhouse was appreciated and very helpful.
In a letter dated December 12, 2007, it was noted that there was potential for an illegal discharge to happen if
this pit was to overflow. The discharge would go directly into the storm drain and enter into a tributary of
Loves Creek. Townsend responded that the pit would be re -designed and completed in April 2008. This visit
was to determine if the work had been completed.
During this visit it was noted that the work has been completed. A concrete containment of approximately one
foot has been added around the perimeter of the pit. An overflow pipe is in place that can re -direct the process
water into the bay area drains, which go to the waste treatment area on -site in case of an overflow. Mr.
Stackhouse stated that the pit is pumped once a week as preventive maintenance. The new design should
prevent an illegal discharge from happening in the future.
If you have any questions, please contact Stephanie Brixey at 919-791-4200 or [email:
stephanie.brixeya ncmail.net].
Sincerely,
Stephanie Brixey

Dear Mr. Fields:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form, which we received on August 31, 2005. Based on your submittal and signed
certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, the Division is granting your certification as
provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your no exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no
exposure conditions at your facility, if conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no -
exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater
discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your
conditional no -exposure exclusion expires in five years (December 30, 2010). At that time you must re -certify
with the Division, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from your facility.
Your certification of no exposure does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental
permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Sarah Young at [phone], ext.
502, or at [e-mail].

industrial machinery, raw materials, intermediate products, by-products, final products, or waste products. Material handling activities include the storage,
loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw material, intermediate product, final product or waste product. A storm resistant shelter is

I certify under penalty of law that I have read and understand the eligibility requirements for claiming a condition of "no exposure" and obtaining an
exclusion from NPDES storm water permitting.
I certify under penalty of law that there are no discharges of storm water contaminated by exposure to industrial activities or materials from the industrial

the operator of the local municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) into which the facility discharges (where applicable). I understand that I must
allow the NPDES permitting authority, or M54 operator where the discharge is into the local MS4, to perform inspections to confirm the condition of no
exposure and to make such inspection reports publicly available upon request. I understand that I must obtain coverage under an NPDES permit prior
to any point source discharge of storm water from the facility.
Additionally, I certify under penalty of law that this document and all attachments were prepared under my direction or supervision in accordance with a
