Dear Mr.McCulloch.-
This correspondence is a follow-up to my Februaryth verbal and email notification
regarding the wastewater spill which occurred sometime between 6.*00 PM February 3
and 5: 00 AM February , 20
The spill occurred as a result of a pumpfailure at our wash rack lift station. Wastewater
was being recirculated from the storage tank to the lift station to keep the pipes from
bursting in potentially freezing temperatures. When the pump tiled, the lift station
overflowed into its dike which subsequently overflowed. An estimated 5,000 gallons of
industrial wastewater overflowed into our 'storm water drainage system and off our
property.
The spill was reported to LUESA by voice mail at approximately 3: 5 pm followed by an
email at 3.30 pm. The spill was also reported to s. Barbara Siff with the North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources C , Mooresville
regional office and to Mr. Bill Gintert of the Charlotte Mecklenburg utilities Department

Dear Mr. McCullough. -
This rrea nen is a follow-up to our July telephone conversation regarding the
wastewater spill which occurred on July 20, 2005. The spill occurred around noon
when a delivery truck into the valve of a 30,000 gallon wastewater storage tank
and separated the valve from the tank. An estimated 6,000 gallons of industrial
wastewater was released onto our yard. We immediately closed the manual valve on
the North containment dike and completely contained the wastewater flow on
Continental Tire property within our storm ter drainage system. I called LUESA and
left e message on your voice it at approximately 12. 5 pm. Haz-Mat Transportation
and Disposal a t was then contacted ,and `arrived on site at approximately 3 pm.
a t removed the wastewater from the dike andexcavated soil and residue from a
drainage ditch n adjacent pavement. Per es_ our request, pies of the waste manifests
° s
are attached, Approximately fourteen 13 1 tens of soil was disposed at FI
Landfill, 5105 Morehead Rd., Concord, North Carolina.
As a countermeasure to this incident, Continental Tire has installed a barrier between
the tank valve and the adjacent driveway. Continental Tire will continue to enforce all
segments of our permits and spill plans and strives to continually improve by practicing
our environmental policy of preserving the environment and preventing pollution.

the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part 111, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a
minimum, the following items:
1. 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 reap (USrS 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
stormwater 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 loadincr 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 storcnwater 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 outfalis Have been evaluated for the presence of
non-tormater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in
accordance with the requirements found in Part I11, Standard Conditions,' Section
B, Paragral1h 3,

narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
Part 11 Page 1 of 5

Permit No. NC'S00031
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following:
(a) Feasibility; Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall
prevent exposureof 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 potentials contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Sectioni313 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 b
secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the
containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall
staining, visible sheens and dry weather flaw, prior to release of the accumulated
stormwater. Accumulated stormwater 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 Bests Management
Practices ( MPs) 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

of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges,
. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility
operations that have the potential to contaminate storrnwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stormwater specifig. 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 SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP.
. Preventative Maintenance and Good 'Housekeeping Program.' A preventative
maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of
inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment

at least a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September -November) and once in the
spring (April - June). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities
perforrned shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s)
making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control
systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be
incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
Stormwater dischar-e characteristic monitoring as required in Part 11 of this permit shall
be performed in addition to facility inspections.
Implementation. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements,
inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the
to of the sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the
