negligently discharges oil or other hazardous substances, or knowingly causes or permits the
discharge of ©i in violation of G.S. 143-215.83(a), or who fails to report a discharge as required
by G.S. 143-215.85, or who fails to comply with the clean up requirements of G.S. 143-
215.84(a), shall incur, in addition to any other penalty provided by law, a penalty in an amount
not to exceed five thousand dollars ($5000.00) for each such violation. Penalties may also be
assessed for the damages to the surface waters of the State that may result from the unpermitted
discharge. You will be advised of any enforcement recommendation.
There is evidence that the soil contamination resulting from this discharge is significant.
Samples should be collected from the base of the excavated areas to confirm removal of the
contaminated soil. Samples should also be collected from the excavated material to identify the
petroleum contaminants. Your consultant or the MCWQP staff would be able to advise you
concerning the appropriate analyses for petroleum contaminated soil. It is recommended that no
backfill to any of the excavated sites be made until a review has been made of the analytical data.
It is requested that you respond, in writing, to this Notice, indicating the measures taken
to collect and remove the discharge and to restore all affected areas, and also any measures taken
to prevent future discharges. The response should also indicate the disposal location for any
removed discharge material, contaminated soils, or waters and include a copy of the analytical
documentation for the site remediation. Please address your response to me by no later than
September 30, 2005. Also, please send a copy of this response to Mr. Rusty Rozzelle of

Kenan Transport — Gasoline Tanker Spill Activity Report
1-485 S & I-85 S
8-20-05:
Don Ceccarelli (DPC) arrived at the scene @ 3:20am and met with Gary McCormick (GM), Chief
of CFD, who was the incident commander. GM indicated that a 9000-gal gasoline tanker (Kenan
Oil Co.) had overturned in the median of 1-485 and estimated that about 1300 gallons of gasoline
was released. The driver's name was Joe Patterson and Kenan's on -site representative was John
Jolly, Terminal Manager for Kenan Transport Co. (wk: 704-399-1596, cell: 704-576-6916).
State Highway patrol, County Police, and NCDOT personnel were also on site to oversee the
incident. CFD had stopped the leak from the tanker and was in the process of transferring the
remaining tanker contents into another tanker. GM indicated that he believed the gasoline soaked
in the soil and was contained in the median because they found a storm drain outlet pipe on either
side of 1-485, but did not see indication of gasoline in these pipes. CFD had placed an absorbent
boom on pooling water near the outlet pipe in the event some gasoline reached the pipe. GM also
indicated that Shamrock Environmental had been called and was enroute from (ireensboro, NC.
DPC inspected the tanker and noted that the tanker had overturned onto a storm drain inlet. DPC
traced the storm drain pipe which led to a drainage ditch, then to a former sediment basin along
side Paw Creek. DPC collected surface grab samples of the liquid pooling: 1) near the discharge
pipe, 2) in the drainage ditch, 3) from the sediment basin, and 4) from Paw Creek. These grab
samples showed that the pooling water from all locations had a floating petroleum layer.
DPC informed GM that gasoline had reached Paw Creek and requested that absorbent booms be
installed near the weir of the sediment basin to prevent further discharge to Paw Creek.
Shamrock personnel arrived on site about 5:20am, but response trucks did not arrive until 7:30am
due to equipment issues. DPC instructed Shamrock to install additional booms across Paw Creek
downstream of the sediment basin near the 1-85 box culvert to minimize downstream gasoline
impacts. Shamrock began evacuating the liquid in the drainage ditch and in the sediment basin.
CFD emptied their lines of foam fire -fighting agent onto the ground surface (away from the storm
drain drop inlets) and left the scene shortly after the arrival of Shamrock.
West Meck FD came back to the scene and flushed the storm drain from the drop inlet to the
storm drain outlet three times while Shamrock evacuated the liquid from the outlet. West Meck
FD said they had received several calls from homeowners near the intersection of Paw Creek and
Wilkinson Blvd. indicating they were awakened by strong petroleum fumes. DPC investigated
Paw Creek at this location (which is downstream of where the release occurred) and noted a
petroleum sheen and odor in Paw Creek. Within a 3-minute time period, DPC counted 8 dead
crayfish, 3 dead bluegills, and 6 dead catfish floating down the creek. DPC also noted several
nearly dead fish.

Shamrock's excavator arrived on site and began excavating the drainage swale in the median near
the drop inlet at 9:45am. Shamrock used a PID to screen the soils during the excavation and
DPC observed the activities, which continued into the afternoon. Approximately 90 feet of the
swale was excavated from 1 foot in depth to 7 feet in depth (alongside the storm drain drop inlet).
PID readings for two soil samples taken from the floor of the excavation at the deepest point (@
7 feet) read 0.0 ppm and 0.0 ppm, respectively. The excavated soil was placed into dump trucks
and dump trailers for transport to a soil remediation farm in Lattimore, NC.
Prior to leaving the site, DPC called John Jolly, and informed him of the status of the cleanup and
the recommended next steps, which were:
1. Since gasoline reached Paw Creek, DPC instructed John Jolly to call NRC. Mr. Jolly indicated
that his insurance company had made that report for him.
2. Continue evacuating all liquids from the drainage ditch and sediment basin.
3. Allow the ditch to dry out so that the soil could be checked for contamination and impacted
material could be excavated and disposed. DPC would make arrangements with Shamrock on
Monday.
4. Backfill the excavation in the median of I-485 to allow re -opening of the I-85 & I-485
interchange.
Mr. Jolly agreed with the recommended steps as proposed by MCWQP
8-21-05:
DPC performed a followup inspection of the area and noted that the drainage ditch was mostly
free of standing liquid with the exception of the sediment basin (which had a layer of gasoline on
it) and the storm drain outlet (which had a sheen on it). Also, the excavation in the median of I-
485 had been backfilled, seeded, and strawed. DPC also noted that Paw Creek had a sheen on it
upstream of the boom. DPC walked the entire length of the ditch and collected grab soil samples
and noted petroleum odors along the entire ditch. DPC called and left a message with Keith
Burch of Shamrock that additional evacuation of liquid and additional excavation of the ditch
would be needed.
8-22-05:
DPC and David Caldwell visited the site with Shamrock to evaluate conditions and plan additional
activities. Based upon the evaluation, MCWQP would require the following additional actions:
1. Evacuating remaining liquids in the ditch
2. Removal of obvious impacted soils from the ditch and sediement basin
3. After excavation, collect and field screen soils every 20 feet along the ditch and submit results
to MCWQP.
4. Collect two floor soil samples from the sediment basin and submit to a certified laboratory for
gas range organics.
5. Evacuate surface liquids from Paw Creek upstream of the boom to remove sheen / gasoline
layer.
6. After evacuation of liquids, replace the boom across Paw Creek.

7. MCWQP collected surface water samples from Paw Creek at upstream and downstream
locations and at the area of the boom for submittal to a laboratory for volatile organic analyte
analysis (EPA 8260).
DPC called Mr. John Jolly and informed him of the above 7 items. He indicated he was OK with
the plan forward and wanted to make sure it got cleaned up. DPC also informed Mr. Jolly that he
would likely receive an NOV for this incident as the responsible party. He understood.

Incident Cleanup Report
Southeastern Logistics — Diesel Fuel Spill
CDC Distribution
1531 Tar Heel Road, Charlotte, NC
September 13, 2005
Page 1
Introduction
On August 23, 2005, a release of diesel fuel occurred at the CDC Distribution warehouse property
located at 1531 Tar Heel Road, Charlotte, North Carolina (Figure 1). The release occurred when a
saddle tank on a Southeastern Logistics truck hit a curb as the truck was backing a trailer to a dock.
The impact caused the saddle tank to fall partially off of the truck. On August 24, 2005, Shield
Engineering, Inc. (Shield) visited the CDC Distributors property to investigate the extent of the release.
Impact of Spill
The spilled diesel fuel affected an asphalt area and a storm drain in the vicinity of the docks. It was
estimated that 50 gallons of diesel fuel was released. No surface water bodies were affected by the
release. Figure 2 illustrates the area of impact.
Potential Receptors
Shield did not observe any surface water bodies or water supply wells near the spill area. The extent of
the release was limited to the asphalt parking area and a storm drain. The City of Charlotte supplies
municipal water to the property as well as the surrounding area.
Remedial Action
On August 24, 2005, Shield contacted STAT, Inc. of Hudson, North Carolina to respond to the release.
STAT applied absorbent material to the affected areas and recovered diesel fuel from the storm drain
using a vacuum truck. The storm drains were subsequently flushed with water. On August 25, 2005,
STAT returned to the site to power wash the asphalt parking area. All rinsate water was recovered
with the vacuum truck. Approximately 400 gallons of rinsate water and diesel fuel were disposed of by
STAT at their Hudson, North Carolina facility. Non -hazardous waste disposal manifests are included
as Appendix A.
Conclusion
Based on cleanup activities performed by STAT and since the diesel fuel release was limited to asphalt
and a storm drain, Shield requests that no future action be required for this incident.

ACTIVITY
ACTIVITY DATE:02/24/2005
PARCEL ID: 04924107
2/24/2005: I inspected University Car Wash, Oil & Lube. I found that a sump pump had been placed back into the car wash system
exactly like it was found last year at this site (pls. see EPIC# 2004-00187). The pump was not running at the time I found it, but it was
obvious from residual water found at the hose end that it had been discharging recently. The pump was obviously arranged to
discharge wastewater from the carwash in violation of NCGS 143.215.1 and the Charlotte City Code. NOVs for violating both laws
have been sent to the business owner, Mr. Morris Alexander, on two separate occasions when this same arrangement has been found
at his business. This is his third recorded offense for the same Water Quality violation, discharging wastewater to the storm drain
system and having an illicit connection set up to discharge wastewater illegally to the storm drain.
Mr. Alexander explained the situation by repeatedly stating that he was not discharging to the storm drain and that he just "Dropped the
pump in there because that is what I do with it." which I took to mean he was claiming that he stored it there. When I asked him to
explain why he stored the pump there instead of in the nearby fenced storage area where another pump was stored, (see photo) he
was unable to give me a satisfactory answer.
I directed Mr. Alexander to remove the sump pump from the pit, he complied with this directive. When he removed the pump, water
and foam flowed out of the hose, indicating it had been recently. When I pointed this out, Mr. Alexander indicated that he had been
using the hose to clear another portion of the carwash system of water, before he placed the hose into the arrangement I found it in. I
asked him to explain why, if that were the case, the pump had the hose directed out into the parking lot towards the storm drain and
the power cords were arranged in such a way as to make it appear that the pump was being used regularly in the position I found it in.
Mr. Alexander repeated that the pump was not used it its current position. I pointed out that the power cords were arranged in a
manner which indicated that the pump was being used in the pit. With an extention cord run out to the pump cord. Mr. Alexander
repeated that the pump was not used in the pit.
I contacted Richard Farmer and Rusty Rozzelle with MCWQP and it was determined that MCWQP would request enforcement from
the State for this infraction.
I contacted Richard Bridgeman of NCDENR and informed him of my findings and of the MCWQP desire for enforcement in this matter.
I sent him photographs of the illicit connection.
2/25/2005: Richard Bridgeman contacted me and informed me that I could proceed with drafting an NOV-NRE from the State for this
violation.
I completed draft of NOV-NRE and submitted it to Richard Farmer for revision.
I contacted Mr. Morris Alexander and informed him of the decision to issue him an NOV-NRE for the connection.
2/27/2005: I visited the site, the pump was not connected at the time of my visit.
2/28/2005: I visited the site, the pump was not connected at the time of my visit.
I submitted the NOV-NRE to Derrick Harris of MCWQP for review. I made his corrections and have submitted it for issuance.

10-08-05, 6:15pm, CFD Engine 13 (Capt. Mike Say) paged Don Ceccarelli regarding a
heating oil spill at St Michael & All Angels Episcopal Church - 4228 Hovis Road. Spill
was reported and witnessed by Traci Roberts (neighboring property owner at Lot #39 of
the trailer park 704-277-3716). Church member Ethie P. Waterman (704-392-9839)
reportedly hired someone to remove an old aboveground heating oil tank and some of the
oil spilled (or was dumped) onto the groundsurface.
Action Taken
10-08-05
Don Ceccarelli (DPC) attempted to call Ethie, but no answer or no answering machine.
DPC called CFD 13 (Capt. Say) who informed that he spoke with Ethie who hired a few
guys to remove the oil tank on behalf of the church on 10-7-05. Ethie reported that some
of the oil was placed into plastic containers so they could load the tank on the truck and
some spilled (estimated at 20 - 50 gallons). Tracy a neighbor said she saw the oil was
intentionally dumped onto the ground. After the original call, Ethie met CFD on site and
CFD informed Ethie that he'd have to report it to County Environmental because of the
size of the spill. CFD reported they received a few other calls about a fuel smell from
nearby neighbors the evening of 10-7-05.
DPC arrived on site and inspected the area. There was visible staining of grass, gravel,
asphalt on the church lot, and a slight sheen on a puddle in the parking lot. In addition
there is a storm drain drop inlet that leads to a pipe that discharges onto the neighboring
trailer park road. The road and roadside ditch showed evidence (visual and olfactory) of
fuel.
DPC spoke with James Roberts (husband of Tracy Roberts and nearest resident to the
Church) who informed that during the rain storm (from former hurricane Tammy), a
fuel/water mixture ran in the ditch alongside his home and along the edge of the road and
the fuel smell was bad.

DPC located a small creek/drainage feature behind Mr. Roberts home and sampled the
surface of a pool of water and did not see any remaining evidence of fuel on the water
surface. This area received over 4 inches of rain during the last few days.
DPC gave Mr. Roberts a business card and indicated that someone will be following up
with him next week and that remedial action may be required by the church.
10/12/05
O. Hutchins performed a follow-up investigation to determine the impacts and necessary
clean-up activities resulting from the aforementioned heating oil spill at the church.
Hutchins parked at in the church parking lot at the location where the initial spill
occurred. There was a strong petroleum odor emanating from the asphalt and vegetation.
The vegetation was stained and dying (Fig "1 and 2). The path the heating oil traveled
was evident by staining down gradient on the parking lot (Fig 3). At the lowest point of
the parking lot, two puddles were present with an oil sheen on the surface (Fig 4). At this
low point, there is a storm drain inlet that contained an oily puddle and staining (Fig 5).
This storm drain pipe travels -40 feet where it discharges into the adjacent mobile home
park (Fig 6). The path of the heating oil continued through the adjacent property's
parking area staining asphalt, vegetation, and soil (Fig 7). The heating oil then traveled
onto an individual resident's property impacting a drainage ditch that runs parallel with
the property (Fig 8). This continues until the drainage ditch becomes piped (Fig 9). This
drain pipe discharges into a vegetative buffer to an intermittent stream. No oil sheen was
seen in the stream channel or banks.
Connie Sessoms (704-597-7902), the Senior Warden of the church, was contacted. It was
explained that a NOV would be sent and that remediation activities would need to be
conducted to restore the area to the condition prior to the spill. Mr. Sessoms explained
that the property committee for the church was meeting that night to discuss clean-up
activities.

4-29-05 CMU sampled the water from the outside tap at 11.150, 11146, and 1114 Lio
Mane Street. The results for all three residences were above detection levels.
Based upon our investigation, all indications are that the responsible party for the
contaminated water line, soil, concrete and asphalt is the former resident of 11146 Lions
Mane Street as a result of her vehicle leaking an unknown quantity of gasoline. The
extent of the contamination has yet to be evaluated since the majority of the contaminated
area is under concrete or asphalt. MCWQP will continue to pursue this incident until all
contamination has been removed, the impacted areas restored, and all potable water is
free of contamination.
If you have any questions, comments, or need more information, please contact me,
Olivia Hutchins.

ACTIVITIES
SERVICE REQUESTED:
Gabe Sasser, CMU, forwarded a citizen's complaint at 11150 Lions Mane Street
concerning a contaminated water line at this residence.
ACTION TAKEN:
4/8/05
Hutchins responded to a citizen's request forwarded to MCWQP from Charlotte
Mecklenburg Utilities (CMU) at 11150 Lions Mane Street. On -site, Hutchins spoke with
the owner, Ms. Elking. According to Ms. Elking, she smelled gasoline in her tap water a
month earlier. She contacted CMU on 3/11/05, and requested that analytical tests be
performed. On 3/14/05, CMU tested Ms. Elking's water and the results for VOCs were
above minimum detection levels for specific parameters. CMU questioned Ms. Elking to
determine a possible source. It was disclosed that the previous owner of 11146 Lions
Mane Street, Ms. Amenah Alexander, had a vehicle leaking an unknown quantity of
gasoline in a shared driveway and road. Complaints from surrounding residents to the
HOA resulted in a letter being sent to Ms. Alexander on 1/17/05 requesting that the
"inoperable vehicle" be removed from the community (see attached letter).

A chronology of events that have occurred on or are associated with 11146 Lions Mane
Street was compiled (see attached chronology).
Hutchins was informed while on -site that Ms. Alexander had been foreclosed on and was
no longer a resident of 11146 Lions Mane Street.
Hutchins took a photo (see attached photo) of the staining that occurred on the street in
front of 11146 Lions Mane Street. The asphalt is saturated in gasoline, and can be
removed with the hand.
Based upon CMU's investigation, Ms. Elking's water line is made of polybutylene which
can be penetrated by gasoline. CMU's sampling efforts showed that contamination was
only occurring at Ms. Elking's service line at this time.
Two phone numbers were found for Ms. Alexander, but both numbers had been
disconnected.
4/20/05
Tony Smith (704-366-6667) with Wanda Smith and Associates was contacted because
this is the real estate company that is selling 11146 Lions Mane Street. Mr. Smith was
informed of the ongoing investigation. Mr. Smith requested something in writing that
summarized the events that had occurred to date.
4/25/05
The chronology of events was faxed to Mr. Smith.
4/26/05
Mr. Smith was contacted to confirm fax transmission. Mr. Smith explained that he would
send a copy of the chronology to Litton Loan Servicing, the owner of 11146 Lions Mane
Street.
5/2/05
Rusty Rozzelle received the contact information for Litton Loan Servicing from Mr.
Smith. Mr. Rozzelle called Ms. Claire Caldwell, Asset Manger for Litton Loan Servicing
(713-960-9676), and left her a message. The address for Litton Loan. Servicing is 4828
Loop Central Drive, Houston, TX 77081-2226.
John Huber, CMU, contacted Mr. Rozzelle, and informed him that on 4/29/05, CMU
tested the outside taps at 11146, 11150, and 11154 Lions Mane Street. The results were
above minimum detection levels for specific parameters at all three residences.
Since 4/8/05, John McCulloch has contacted the following people to inquire about a

J. Beller investigated the property at 2813 Wedgefield Rd. There was an active sewer
discharge at the time of the investigation. The sewage was discharging from a clean out
pipe near the front door of the house. Sewage was also discharging from the ground
around the pipe. J. Beller spoke with the property owner Donald Alexander at the house.
Mr. Alexander stated that CMU had been to the house and had tried to snake the line to
the street but that the line is broken near the clean out and they were unable to stop the
discharge. J. Beller informed Mr. Alexander that the discharge was a violation and need
to be fixed immediately. Mr. Alexander stated that he understood that the problem need
to be addressed but that he had no income and no way to fix the problem. J. Beller told
Mr. Alexander that he would be receiving a State NOV for the discharge. Mr. Alexander
stated that he understood and that he would try to have the problem fixed. Mr. Alexander
has no phone, car, or means to fix the broken sewer line.
The sewage was ponding in Mr. Alexander's yard and had not left the property at the time
of the investigation. Continued discharge will ultimately discharge to the street and into
surface waters.

On behalf of Sam's Mart, S&ME, Inc. submits this response to your letter dated July 15,
2005. This letter outlines the measures taken to collect and remove the discharge and to
restore all affected areas, and to prevent future discharges.
On June 29, 2005, Sam's Mart was notified by their store personnel of a discharge of
diesel fuel in the amount of 5-10 gallons of diesel fuel spillage. Sam's Mart contacted
Law Petroleum to contain, remove and dispose of the diesel spill and take necessary
action to excavate and remove any soil that was impacted due to the release.
On June 30, 2005, two tons of impacted soil was excavated and disposed of by Law
Petroleum. The excavated soil was taken to HAZ-MAT for disposal. The transportation
and disposal manifest is enclosed. After removal of the impacted soil, the area was
restored to the conditions prior to the diesel discharge, to the extent possible.
The release was caused by human error. As such, no additional preventative measures
are planned, other than normal operating procedures.

SERVICE REQUESTED..:
A customer at the Shell Gas Station located at the intersection of Beam Rd. and Yorkmont reports that there was a 10-15
gallon diesel fuel spill. He informed the station attendant and they refused to clean up the spill. Please check this out.
ACTION TAKEN.......:
6/29/05
J. Beller investigated the Sam's Mart at the corner of Beam Rd. and Yorkmont Rd. for a possible fuel spill reported by an
anonymous caller. J. Beller arrived at the Sam's Mart at approximately 4:15 pm. There was a significant amount of diesel
fuel on the concrete around the pumping station flowing toward a BMP located on the property. There had been no type of
absorbent placed on the spill of approximately 10-15 gallons of fuel.
J. Beller went inside the store and spoke with the manager, Fathi Hasan. Mr. Hasan first claimed that he knew about the spill
and that he was waiting for the fuel do dry before they cleaned the area. J. Beller told Mr. Hasan that oil dry should be put on
the spill, the fire department should have been called and the spiller should have been kept on the site to assume
responsibility. Mr. Hasan then changed his story and claimed that he did not know about the resent spill and was referring to
a previous spill. J. Beller asked Mr. Hasan how they normally handle fuel spills. Mr. Hasan stated that they place oil dry on
the spill to absorb the fuel and then use a leaf blower to scatter the oil dry. J. Beller informed Mr. Hasan that the
contaminated oil dry needed to be collected and disposed of properly.
Some of the fuel from the spill was present in the rock rip rap area off the concrete pad leading to the grassy storm water
detention area. J. Beller informed Mr. Hasan that he would need to have an environmental clean up company come and
remove the fuel contaminated soil.
Mr. Hasan gave J. Beller the number for his corporate office and stated that they would be the one to handle the clean up
coordination.
1r. Hasan and one of his employees put out oil dry absorbent on the fuel spill while J. Beller was present. J. Beller instructed
:hem to remove the absorbent when the fuel was absorbed. J. Beller also told Mr. Hasan that he would be back to inspect the
area the following day to make sure the area had been cleaned.
1. Beller called the corporate office for Sam's Mart and spoke with Eyad Barphouthi. J. Beller explained the situation and
Wade him aware that an NOV was going to be sent and that an environmental cleanup company needed to be called to the
;ite to remove the contaminated soil. Mr. Barphouthi stated that they would take care of the matter and that the General
Manager, Adnan Jaairi, would be made aware of the situation. J. Beller gave Mr. Barphouthi his information and asked that
ie be notified if they have any questions.

SERVICE REQUESTED..:
requesting party reports that Eagle Transport Co. at 7320 Old Mt. Holly Rd. routinely cleans trucks on Sunday mornings.
Waste wash water is not contained and runs on to the ground and often runs off site. The gravel lot is also sometimes
sprayed w/ an oily substance for dust control by B&B Asphalt Rejuvenating. The Castle's also state that other businesses in
the area also wash trucks on Sunday. Evaluate surrounding areas as well.
ACTION TAKEN.......:
3/06/05: Brian Sikes of MCWQp drove by the Eagle Transport Facility at 7800 Old Mount Holly Road in Charlott, NC and
witnessed Fleetwash, Inc personnel washing vehicles. The wastewater was discharging to the ground surface (ie, gravel).

drain. Sikes drove around Paw Creek and did not observe any fleet washing at other facilities (e.g., Reliable)
03/09/05: Sikes spoke with Richard Bridgeman of NCDENR-MRO. Bridgeman stated that Fleetwash should receive the
NOV, not Eagle Transport.
03/11/05: Sikes spoke with Mark Kinsey of Eagle. Kinsey stated that Fleetwash was suppose to capture all wastewater at the
facility. Kinsey also stated that B&B Asphalt have not sprayed the parking area in over two years.
Sikes spoke with Randy Reittinger of Fleetwash. Reittinger stated that the personnel didn't capture the wastewater because it
remained on -site, and there were no nearby drains. Reittinger stated that it was not practical to use tarps to capture the
wastewater.

Dear Mr. Gleason,
In response to the above violation, the incident was reported to both CMUD
(David Kelly) and to Mark Popinchalk of MCWQP after the accidental spill was found
and contained by Arjobex personnel.
The accidental spill report was sent to Mr. Popinchalk and Mr. Kelly of CMUD
on 12-01-04.
Since the report it was later found that a faulty Level Alarm circuit relay, for both
the EQ tank and the containment area, had to be replaced.
Actions taken:
• Alarm relay replaced.
• The two high level indicators have been split and are now on separate alarm circuits.
• A guard installed on the EQ tank mixer to stop the belts throwing effluent over the
containment area wall.
• Maintenance department required to check the Wastewater pre-treatment plant every
6 hours.
Should you have any other questions, please contact:
Mr. Vijay Yadav at 704-588-9503 ext. 132, or you may contact e at ext. 125.

Report on accidental WWPT spill.
Date: 12-1-04
Problem:
Accidental spill of Coating from EQ tank containment area into storm water drain.
Cause:
A blockage in the pipe -work after the pumps that transfer material from the Equalization
tank to the mixing tank caused the EQ tank to overfill and run into the containment area
around the tank. The blockage caused the primary pump to burn -off the belts and the
secondary pump came on but had little flow due to the blockage.
As the level in the containment area increased, the effluent eventually reached the bottom
of the side entry mixer, where it through a small amount of effluent off the mixer drive
belts over the top of the containment wall, and entered the storm water system at the rear
of the property.
The time of the spill is unknown but the chart recorder showed a loss of flow from the
clarifier at approx. 7pm on 1.1-30-04.
Actions:
When the problem was found the Pump and mixer were isolated immediately to reduce
further spills.
The level in the EQ tank was lowered, by pumping into the empty clarifier to enable the
mixer in the tank to be started to stop the solids settling.
Both CMUD. And Mecklenberg Environmental water quality division was notified of the
situation.
Observations:
The high level alarm in the EQ containment area failed to alarm the reason for this has
yet to be found. One possibility, we had two power cuts during the previous week, which
caused several problems on our process equipment, which could have caused the failure
of this alarm.
The clarifier stopped discharging at approx.7pm on 11-30-04. The level in the clarifier is
maintained atl l ft, this would give 7,500 Gallons capacity before reaching the overflow.
The containment area holds approx. 7,500 Gallons, at 3ft giving 15,000Gallons
total.(height of containment wall is 4ft)
Our typical daily flow rate is 16,000-17,000 Gallons/24hr day; therefore the spill is
estimated to be between 1,000 and 2,000 gallons.
Corrections:
The cause of the containment area alarm failure will be rectified.
A splashguard will be installed around the mixer motor.
High level alarm fitted to EQ tank.

SERVICE REQUESTED..:
Dick Jalland, Engineering Manager of Arjobex, reports that they had a 1500 gallon spill of wastewater to a storm drain.
ACTION TAKEN.......:
12/1/2004
I, Mark Popinchalk, with the MCWQP, met with Dick Jalland, Engineering Manager for Arjobex. Arjobex manufactures
synthetic paper at the site of the spill. According to Mr. Jalland, Arjobex does not hold any NPDES permits. Mr. Jalland
stated that apparently 1500 gallons of wastewater had spilled from the facility and entered the storm drain sometime during
the night prior to my arrival. The wastewater, at the point in the system where the spill happened, contains municipal water, a
proprietary latex binder, aqueous ammonia, and chalk. The wastewater is discharged into the CMUD sanitary sewer system
after being treated with a CMUD approved pretreatment method. Mr. Jalland said that the spill was caused when a pipe
connecting an equalization tank and a clarifying tank became clogged. Two pumps, a main pump and an auxiliary pump, both
failed to pump water from the equalization tank. The equalization tank then overflowed into a secondary containment
structure. The high fluid level alarm in the secondary containment system malfunctioned. A pully-driven stirrer that keeps
sediment suspended in the wastewater while in the equalization tank, splashed approximately 1500 gallons of wastewater
outside of the secondary containment walls. The spill was then discovered.
See photos
I monitored a small stream located adjacent to the facility that received the wastewater with a handheld YSI unit. The stream
still contained small amounts of the white -colored wastewater. The YSI parameter results are as followed:
Temperature 'C 12.64
Sp. Conductivity 170
pH 7.10
Dissolved Oxygen 6.40
I inspected Steele Creek at Westinghouse Blvd for wastewater impacts. I did not see any visible impacts or any distressed or
dead fish.
The flow of Steele Creek was much more substantial than the small tributary that received the spill. This site is about one half
mile from the facility.
