Dear Mr. Lockard:
MICHAEL S. REGAN
Secretary
WILLIAM E. VINSON, JR.
lnlerim Director
The Division has reviewed your application for a No Exposure Certification for Exclusion (NE) for the subject
facility. Based on the information provided and a site visit conducted on March 21, 2018, the NE has been approved.
Please note that you are obligated to maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that
your facility can no longer qualify for a NE, 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
NE does not expire. In order to help assure that your facility stays in compliance -with all of the conditions in the
Certification, you must self -recertify your facility at least annually. Please see the attachment for information on self -
recertification.
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 Isaiah Reed at [phone].
Sincerely,
�oritlam E. Vinson,J

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for exclusion fromra 9t66hwater-Perm1t based
on NO EXPOSURE: Asheville
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notification that your facility does not require a
permit for storm water discharges associated with industrial activity in the State of North Carolina because
it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at an industrial facility means all
industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter (with some exceptions) to
prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DEMLR must approve your application for No
Exposure Certification before this exclusion is effective. Until you are issued a No
Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue
to abide by the terms and conditions of the current permit.
Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to: material handling equipment or activities,
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 not
required for the following industrial materials and activities: drums, barrels, tanks, and similar containers
that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed" means
banded or otherwise secured and with locked or non -operational taps or valves; adequately maintained
vehicles used in material handling; and final products, other than products that would be mobilized in
stormwater discharges (e.g., rock salt).
A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. In
addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is available on a facility -wide basis only —not for individual
outfalls. if any industrial activities or materials are, or will be, exposed to precipitation, the facility is not
eligible for the no exposure exclusion. By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form, you
certify that a condition of no exposure exists at this facility or site and are obligated to comply with the
terms and conditions of 40 CFR 922.26(g).
If approved, your conditional No Exposure Exclusion has no expiration date
BUT MUST BE self re -certified at least annually.
Please look for information about re -certification under the No Exposure section on this page:
