During this inspection I found that the permittee keeps very extensive and detailed records and documentation to meet the stormwater permit requirements. There were just a couple areas that I would request that specific attention be paid, to better capture and prevent any stormwater pollution issues. The site map was included with much of the information required, there were areas that should have been identified, such as the chlorine building, that were not shown on the map. Any areas with the potential for pollution to stormwater, along with any other areas required by the permit,should be shown on the map. Site inspections are done regularly, but there are some site specific areas with the potential to pollute stormwater that should be added to the checklist such as the chlorine building. Example: There are poly totes without secondary containment under the shed side of the building that have the potential to leak, spill or to crack and cause a spill that would be exposed to stormwater. There were chemicals stored next to the rollup door that could be a potential stormwater pollutant that should be stored in a safe location that would have been identified as an issue if that area was part of a checklist. Please provide checklist for all site specific areas with the potential to be a stormwater pollutant source. The request to combine the two stormwater permits for the monilift NCG120101 and the individual stormwater permit NCS000580 has been approved. The number system has been altered to reflect the requested removal of alphanumeric numbering as well as making the requested changes to the numbering for stormwater permit NCS000580. Outfall 002 is now 007 for that permit outfall. These changes will come effective at the renewal of your stormwater permit NCS000580. Also, at the same time as the renewal stormwater permit NCG120101 will be rescinded.
