Re: NPDES General Permit NCG140000 Notice of Intent (NO1) Application
Ready Mix of the Carolinas, Inc. —Troutman (Plant 103)
281 Murdock Road, Troutman, Iredell County, NC 28166
To Whom it May Concern:
On behalf of Ready Mix of the Carolinas, Inc. and as agent for same, enclosed please find a Notice of Intent
(NO1) application package and accompanying information for requested coverage underthe NPDES General
Permit NCG140000 for the facility identified above and here within.
Please note that the facility in question is a new ready mixed concrete manufacturing facility currently
nearing the end of construction phases and that manufacturing and operational testing has been occurring
since approximately October 16th, 2020.
With regards to the enclosed NO1 application package, please find the following materials:
• A completed Notice of Intent form,
• A complete map set depicting the items outlined within Section 10 of the NO1 form (including 4
sheets from the engineered site plans set used for design and local approval of this plant),
• A line drawing depicting the flow of water through this facility as outlined within Section 10 of the
NO1 form,
• A narrative description of wastewater at this facility (see below),
• A check for the application fee (total fee = $100.00), made payable to "NCDEQ"
With regards to a narrative description of wastewater at this facility, we offer the following:
The discharge from this' facility (from identified, designated outfall PDO001) would be a combined
(commingled) stormwater / noh-stormwater discharge from standard, typical ready -mixed concrete plant
operations. Any discharge at this facility is first captured and managed through on -site features, which
should serve to improve water quality (commingled discharge, in the case of a sand filtration BMP) and to
allow for on -site reuse/recycling (in the case of a non-stormwater / process water settling basin system for
most concrete plant activities). It is anticipated that under most circumstances, the discharge would be
primarily composed of stormwater (only), and may only have a commingled discharge infrequently, such
as during unusually large storm events. Any non-stormwater (wastewater) generated from concrete plant
operations would occur from concrete mixer truck exterior washing, mixer truck interior washout (which
will only be drained into the settling basin system for reuse / recycling), aggregate stockpile watering, plant
yard watering, etc.; the large majority of which is intended to be captured in the non-stormwater settling
basin system for further reuse / recycling (such as for further washing and further concrete production).
Environmental Compliance & Due Diligence Services
Regardless of source, any discharge from this facility will first pass through a large, elaborate sand filtration
system prior to discharge, significantly enhancing water quality of any final discharge (there is no direct
discharge of anything from this site — stormwater or non-stormwater — which does not first pass through
this BMP).
I trust that all required information and necessary documentation is included within this N01 Application
package. Should you require any additional information or have any questions or comments, please do not
hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Vle:r"-e
