Weaver NCDENR / DWQ / NPDES 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Dear Mr. Weaver: 11 E r)-)7 J 1 f �1 i - 5 MINATIONi 101 IRO" Owens Corning Roofing & Asphalt, LLC (Owens Corning) is requesting renewal of the general NPDES wastewater discharge permit for the Morehead City Plant. Please find enclosed with this letter three (3) copies of the general NPDES wastewater permit renewal application for the Owens Corning Roofing & Asphalt, LLC (Owens Corning) Morehead City Plant. Attachment A includes the applicable Notice of Renewal Intent forms and Attachment B contains the site map. The Morehead City Plant's current general NPDES wastewater discharge permit (Certificate of Coverage No. NCG500354) expired on July 31, 2007. This existing general wastewater discharge permit authorized the plant to discharge boiler water blowdown and non -contact cooling water/condensate from on -site operations. However, since Owens Corning leases the land and the facility from the North Carolina State Ports Authority, Owens Corning was uncertain if the North Carolina Sate Ports Authority (as owner) had obtained and maintained compliance with the proper wastewater permit covering discharges at the Morehead City Plant. At one time the management at the Owens Corning facility was informed by the N.C. Port Security Director that Owens Corning was covered under the Port's permit. Upon further questioning and review, Owens Corning discovered that the wastewater discharge operations at the Morehead City Plant were not covered under any Ports Authority permit. Therefore, Owens Corning is seeking immediate renewal of the expired permit. Owens Corning has and will continue to operate in compliance with all monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in the expired permit until a renewed permit is issued. The applicable Biocide 101 forms and vendor information are being submitted to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Environmental Sciences Section, Aquatic Toxicology Unit. Owens Corning understands that a permit application fee is not required for this renewal application since the facility pays an annual fee for coverage under general permit NCG500000. Thank you for your prompt attention to this application. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this submittal by contacting me at (252) 726-0653.
