Date of investigation: June 1, 2011
Report prepared by: Michael L. Parker, Environmental Engineer II
Person contacted and telephone number: Tony Sams, Feed Mill Manager, [phone]
Directions to site: From the jct. of Highway 150 and Foust Road just east of Shelby, turn
right and travel north on Foust Road 0.1 mile to the junction with Airport Road. Turn
left onto Airport Road and travel 1.3 miles. The entrance to the Case Farms site will be
on the left side of the road via a concrete drive.

Classification: / Cr( NC-5 /i T/) S (? _g
River Basin and Subbasin No.: Broad 030805
Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstream uses: The stream at
the point of discharge is a headwaters channel with very little flow. Based on the
amount of water generated at this facility, and the distance it will have to travel
across the facilities property, it is unlikely that the waste stream will ever reach
the receiving waters.

Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: Toxic impacts are not expected.
Additives to the waste stream have been submitted in the permit application.

PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION
1. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity) requests: None at this time.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The applicant requests coverage under the subject GP for a discharge consisting of boiler
blowdown, water softener, and aerator mix equipment. The wastewater will be discharged into a
storm drain system at the rear of the building where it will travel 150 feet underground before
discharging onto the ground adjacent to a railroad spur. From there, the wastewater will travel
through a vegetated ditch for .100 yards before discharging into an existing wet -detention pond.
According to plant staff, they have never seen this pond discharge since the facility was opened
5 years ago.
Until now, these waste streams have been sent to the local POTW through a nearby force
main (FM). The force main, however, is undersized and it has become increasingly more
difficult to get the facilities wastewater back to the POTW with other users on this line pumping
at the same time. Removing these waste streams and discharging them on -site will allow for
increased capacity in the FM and help in reducing the facilities water consumption bill.
Pending a technical review of the biocidal information submitted by the applicant, this
Office recommends issuance of the General Permit to the applicant.

Case Farms Feed Mill - Shelby
NPDES # NCG5000000
Cleveland County
Case Farms Feed Mill - Shelby has requested approval of three chemicals, B-221, B-198 & B-45. These
products will be discharged into their Outfall 001 and in to an unnamed tributary to Long Creek.
Calculations predict the use of these products, B-221, B-198 & B-45, at the stated dosage rates, will not cause
toxic impacts to aquatic life in the receiving stream, the unnamed tributary to Long Creek. Therefore, the use of
these products as an additive to their boiler blowdown system at Case Farms Feed Mill - Shelby is acceptable.
