Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Tim Heim of the Asheville Regional Office performed a Compliance Inspection of the Facility on
November 17, 2021. Josh Greene (ORC), Beth Anderson (Shuford Yards EH&S Director) and Mike
Bradshaw (Plant Manager) assisted with the inspection. This inspection was performed concurrent
with the CEI for the Minor NPDES Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0035211). The facility appeared
well maintained and operated at the time of the inspection, and in compliance with Permit
NCG500321. No deleterious impact to the receiving stream was observed.
The following item was noted at the time of the inspection:
It is understood from discussions with staff that cooling water from Point A (Air Compressor Cooling
Tower) is discharged to the WWTP, while water from Points B&C is discharged to the receiving stream
after de -chlorination. Rerouting the flow from Points B&C to the WWTP could eliminate the need for a
Non -Contact Cooling Water General Permit and the associated discharge.
