Dear Mr. Braswell:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft
very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains.
The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit:
Analytical monitoring changes:
1. The analytical monitoring for Total Suspended Solids, Nitrogen and Phosphorus was maintained for the
sampling requirements in this permit. Additional monitoring will include COD.
Based on the lack of data and potential pollutants from this operation, all of the parameters for the
original permit will be maintained in the renewal. COD will be included in the renewal permit because it
could be a potential pollutant at a feed manufacture.
2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in
Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge
occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow"
within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a
minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record
keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the
sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at
any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within
two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit,
the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific
parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the
Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute
monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples.
5. You are required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of
representative outfall status.

6. You are responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall
parameter is in this permit, however.)
8. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical
and qualitative monitoring. This requirement appears in all Individual Stormwater permits, however it
only applies to facilities that do vehicle maintenance. If the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the
permitted timeframe then the requirements shall apply.
Other permit changes
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants
in each outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of
significant spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have
been inspected to ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is
provided in Part II Section A.
2. - Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
More details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II
Section A. The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that
the outfalls do not contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial
materials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR §122.26(g), the
facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit
requirements. Additional information is provided in Part I Section A.
Please submit any comments to me no later than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft.
Comments should be sent to the address listed at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are
received from the public or from you, this permit will likely be issued in about two months.
If you have any questions or comments concerning this draft permit, contact Brian Lowther at [phone]
or [e-mail]

Special Issues Explanation:
• There seems to be a misinterpretation of the analytical requirements. Monitoring was done
incorrectly and then after a site visit more monitoring was done than what the permits requires.
While this data might be helpful, it still shaes a potential misinterpretation of the permit. There
are high levels of TSS and outfall 2 was only monitored once. A new site map shows two outfalls.

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: No other permits.
2. General Observations: Hog & chicken feed & certified organic poultry feeds. The site produces feed from grain
and feed additives using nutritional enhancement chemicals in the production process. Other chemicals are used on
site for vehicle and equipment maintenance but do not qualify to monitor.
An annual inspection of the site was done on January 12, 2006. A NOV was sent to the facility after the
compliance evaluation. Their stormwater pollution prevention plan and stormwater management plan were both
inadequate. Neither qualitative nor quantitative monitoring was being accomplished according to the permit.
3. Impairment: Sapony Creek is not listed on the 303(d) and not in the Tar -Pamlico Basinwide Plan.
4. Threatened and Endangered: There is one species that is state srotected that is within 2 miles based on the
Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom. Strophitus undulates (Creeper) State T. No species are federally protected.
5. Location: All stormwater generated onsite is collected via a system of in ground drains that convey the
stormwater to the Nashville municipal storm system, to an unnamed tributary of Sapony Creek, a class WS-IV,
nutrient sensitive water.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: There have been no significant changes in industrial activities since
the application was filed.
7. AnalAical Monitoring Notes: Three samples were first submitted with the application for analytical monitoring
from 2/28/05 to 12/5/06. The permit requires monitoring for total nitrogen, total phosphorous, TSS. The
samples included BOD, COD, Total Suspended Residue (TSR) and P. Analytical monitoring for total nitrogen
was not accomplished at all. After a NOV, more data was submitted. Two rainfall events at 2 outfalls. BOD
and COD were not included and TKN, Nitrate + Nitrite, and Total Nitrogen were included. Total flow,
precipitation, and duration were not given for any monitoring. There seems to be a misinterpretation of the
analytical requirements.
The EPA Multi -Sector General Permit for sector U1, Grain Mill Products, (SIC 2041-2048) shows analytical
monitoring for TSS.
Based on the lack of data and potential pollutants from this operation, all of the parameters for the original
permit will be maintained in the renewal. COD will be included in the renewal permit because it could be a
potential pollutant at a feed manufacture.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Visually inspections were done for color, odor, clarity, floating solids,
suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, and obvious indicators of pollution but only when analytical monitoring
occurred. A general summary was provided stating no indicators of stormwater pollution were observed. They
then list reasons for limited opportunity of contamination.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Maintain monitoring for TSS, N and P. Adding COD.
2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part 1I Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote I of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
8. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part 11 Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part 11 Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: No other permits.
2. General Observations: Hog & chicken feed & certified organic poultry feeds. The site produces feed from grain
and feed additives using nutritional enhancement chemicals in the production process. Other chemicals are used on
site for vehicle and equipment maintenance but do not qualify to monitor.
An annual inspection of the site was done on January 12, 2006. A NOV was sent to the facility after the
compliance evaluation. Their stormwater pollution prevention plan and stormwater management plan were both
inadequate. Neither qualitative nor quantitative monitoring was being accomplished according to the permit.
3. Impairment: Sapony Creek is not listed on the 303(d) and not in the Tar -Pamlico Basinwide Plan.
4. Threatened and Endangered: There is one species that is state srotected that is within 2 miles based on the
Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom. Strophitus undulates (Creeper) State T. No species are federally protected.
5. Location: All stormwater generated onsite is collected via a system of in ground drains that convey the
stormwater to the Nashville municipal storm system, to an unnamed tributary of Sapony Creek, a class WS-IV,
nutrient sensitive water.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: There have been no significant changes in industrial activities since
the application was filed.
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: Three samples were first submitted with the application for analytical monitoring
from 2/28/05 to 12/5/06. The permit requires monitoring for total nitrogen, total phosphorous, TSS. The
samples included BOD, COD, Total Suspended Residue (TSR) and P. Analytical monitoring for total nitrogen
was not accomplished at all. After a NOV, more data was submitted. Two rainfall events at 2 outfalls. BOD
and COD were not included and TKN, Nitrate + Nitrite, and Total Nitrogen were included. Total flow,
precipitation, and duration were not given for any monitoring. There seems to be a misinterpretation of the
analytical requirements.
The EPA Multi -Sector General Permit for sector U1, Grain Mill Products, (SIC 2041-2048) shows analytical
monitoring for TSS.
Based on the lack of data and potential pollutants from this operation, all of the parameters for the original
permit will be maintained in the renewal. COD will be included in the renewal permit because it could be a
potential pollutant at a feed manufacture.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Visually inspections were done for color, odor, clarity, floating solids,
suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, and obvious indicators of pollution but only when analytical monitoring
occurred. A general summary was provided stating no indicators of stormwater pollution were observed. They
then list reasons for limited opportunity of contamination.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Maintain monitoring for TSS, N and P. Adding COD.
2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier I guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier I and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
5. The permittee, is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote I of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
8. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges. .
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part 11 Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

Dear Mr. Schuster: NRRp1F�G
pE
This letter is in response to the inspection by Mr. Ron Boone and Mr. Myrl Nisely
concerning the compliance with our NPDES Stormwater Permit Number NCS000302.
Although I had attempted to keep the permit updated, it is obvious that there were several
things that were not being done correctly.
I have gotten together most of the information that I need to update and correct our
Stormwater Permit.
I have installed new valves and locks on all the liquid containment drains.
I have marked and upgraded our Spill Kit Cabinet.
I have updated all maps with discharge points.
I have documented all Training Sessions from my Safety Program for the past 12
months that has covered:
1. General Housekeeping 1/10105
2. Environmental Management 3/21/05
3. Emergency Action Plan 4/4/05
4. Hazard Communication 1/16/06
But as I try to arrange it in a plan booklet, I realize that I need additional help. I have
called Mid Atlantic Associates, P.A. of Raleigh and talked to Wayne Randolph and he
has aereed to help me with my plan and permit. Mr. Randolph said that the expected
time frame to be within 30 days for site visit, then 1 week for draft plan and then 1 week
for final plans.
I thank you for your help and understanding and hope that I can solve this as soon as
possible and maintain a correct plan and permit from this date on.
Sincer�ly,�

Re: NPDES Stormwater Permit Renewal
1. Site Map
Two copies of the Facility Site Map are included with this Renewal Application.
2. Analytical Monitoring Results
Our Individual Permit requires sampling of the representative outfall associated
with the Feed Mill for BOD, COD, Total Phosphorus, and TSS with cutoff
concentrations for sampling analysis for semi-annual sampling. Although we
perform some minor vehicle repair on site, we use less than 55 gallons of motor
oil per month and are exempted from the vehicle maintenance activity monitoring
requirements.
Out Fall I was sampled on 2/28/05 and 6/29/05 and 12/05/05.
The results of the analysis were:
2/28/05 BOD = 7.8 MG/L
COD = 18 MG/L
TSR = 148 MG/L
Total Phosphorus = 0.63 MG/L
6/29/05 BOD = 12 MG/L
COD = 41 MG/L
TSR = 103 MG/L
Total Phosphorus = 0.53 MG/L
12/5/05 BOD = 16 MG/L
COD = 46 MG/L
TSR = 173 MG/L
Total Phosphorus = 0.55MG/L

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as
the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a
minimum, the following items:
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 map (USGS 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 loading 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 stormwater 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'outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in
accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section
B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
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 6

00 ®® Permit No. NCS000302
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 exposure of all storage areas, matenal 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 potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 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 be
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 flow, 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 Best Management
Practices (BMPs) 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
based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities
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 stormwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stormwater specific. 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.
4. 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
Part II Page 2 of 6

00 1 ®® Permit No. NCS000302
and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of
these areas shall be incorporated into the program.
5. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and
preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in any of the facility's
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel
(or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified.
6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific
position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and
revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented
and position assignments provided.
7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in
design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the
minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall
submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum
requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with
Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes
have been made.
8. Facility Inspection Program. Facilities are required to inspect all stormwater systems on
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
performed 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 discharge characteristic monitoring as required in Part II of this permit shall
be performed in addition to facility inspections.
9. Implementation. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements,
inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the
log of the sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the
industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall
be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his
authorized representative immediately upon request.
