A site visit was made by Farrell Keough, Mary Cabe, and Ed Beck on June 27,1997. It was determined at that time that process equipment had been dismantled and removed, therefore the facility was no longer engaged in an industrial process which would necessitate either an individual NPDES permit or a stormwater permit. A letter was received from the facility, (in file) which verified that they no longer fell under the previous SIC and confirmation was made with the Region and Stormwater Section that a General Permit would be appropriate. 1/c C 3 235.

As per our conversations on June 27th, 1997, the following changes to your permit requirements will be effective immediately. ■ Oil / Water Separator connected to Outfall 003 can be removed The gate valve attached to this pipe can be relocated away from the Bogue Sound towards the facility such that it is on the property leased to Owens — Corning.. • No upstream or downstream monitoring is required. The current permit issued to this facility became effective on February 1, 1995. At that time a process called durbagum was taking place at this facility. This is a rolled roofing process in which water is sprayed upon the rollers extruding the shingle. Since the issuance of that permit, this operation has been shut down and dismantled. This major change in operations necessitated a change in the type of permit issued. • Effluent monitoring for those parameters listed in the permit, (excluding flow) can be taken at the manhole location in the parking as specified during the June 27th, 1997 visit. Flow monitoring can be accomplished through attachment of a meter to the discharge pipe at the location near the boilers, as specified during the June 27th, 1997 meeting.

The current permit for this facility is based upon the SIC code 2952, which applies to asphalt felts and coatings used in the durbagum process. Since this operation was dismantled, your letter notes that the SIC code 5171 (Petroleum Bulk Stations and Terminals) "would be the applicable code for the present operations at this facility". As these definitions are often difficult to determine, we appreciate your time in defining what your present operation involves. Because of these changes in operations, your new permit will be a General Permit, (NCG500XXX) for non -contact cooling water. These General Coverage permits are currently under review. You will be sent a Draft copy for comment prior to issuance. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Farrell Keough at (919) 733 - 5083, extension 510. Sincerely, David A.
