Subject: No -Exposure Certification NCGNE0876
Triangle Brewing Company
Durham County
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form and made a site visit to assess the potential for stormwater pollution. Based on our
observations and your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, the
Division is granting your conditional exclusion from permitting 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 (subject
to civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day). Your conditional no -exposure exclusion does not expire.
However, you must self re -certify annually using the enclosed form, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for
any stormwater discharges from your facility. Please store the completed re -certification forms in order to
have them available during future inspections by DWQ.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting 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 Dave Parnell at [phone] or at
[e-mail].

Permit: NCGNE0876 Owner - Facility: Triangle Brewing Co
Inspection Date: 08/07/2012 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
No Expposure Certification inspection: Entire site was observed. No floor drains discharging to environment or roof
exhausts that would transport dust through roof. Docks were observed. No debris or grain was noted around the docks.
Containers of used grains were on one dock - under shelter. Stressed the need for tight fitting lids to the plastic
containers in order to avoid spilling when transporting to clients picking them up. Grain bin was observed, no grain was
seen on the ground. This and the open plastic grain containers are the only potential areas of concern. Stressed the
need for good housekeeping when/if there is any grain on the ground surface. Andy Miller stated that they keep the site
free of grain to avoid any rats and that is not a problem. No fuel or other liquids on the site. No Exposure Certification is
approved.
