Durham County
Good afternoon,
The permit has been signed and issued,therefore no further changes can be made to it under the draft permit peer
review process.The issued permit cover letter addresses your comments submitted on the draft permit. I have included
that explanation below.
Thank you for submitting comments on the draft permit. Please note stormwater benchmarks are not based on the type
of permit issued but are developed in conjunction with the DEQ DWR Classifications and Standards Branch.All general
and individual industrial permits issued by the Stormwater Permitting Program use the same benchmarks for pollutants
of concern for a specific facility or industry. Different benchmarks for different facilities/permits are not permitted.
Tiered Response is a Stormwater Permitting Program requirement of all individual industrial permits.Therefore,Tiered
Response will remain in the permit as drafted. Monitoring for Non-polar Oil &Grease is required monitoring for all
individual industrial permits and, as stated in the draft permit, is only required for drainage areas that use >55
gallons/month of oil on average per EPA Method 1664(SGT-HEM). Monitoring for Chemical Oxygen Demand and Total
Nitrogen were added to the permit due to the type of materials stored onsite.
Additionally, monitoring for Total Antimony will remain for all outfalls as access roads are throughout the site, with
potential tracking from vehicles or other means, and there has been previous concerns regarding potential air
deposition.As a stormwater benchmark exists for Total Antimony,the benchmark will remain in the permit.The
reference to the Feasibility Study in Part E was an oversight and erroneously not removed from the permit. The
reference to the Feasibility Study will be removed.
As in my email earlier today, if you are amenable to receiving an electronic version of the final permit, please respond to
that correspondence. If you prefer to receive a hard copy of the permit, please respond to the earlier email stating this
preference.
Thank you,

Good afternoon, Brianna,
I wanted to follow up on SCM Metal Products' offer to sit down with DEQ and address constructively the concerns that
DEQ and SCM each have with the draft permit. If helpful,we'd be pleased to explore whether DEQ's goals could be
achieved in a manner that would be feasible for SCM. And, of course, a meeting would also offer SCM the opportunity to
answer any lingering questions DEQ might have on SCM's operations and how the permit might affect them. Please let
us know if you agree; we will make ourselves available for a meeting as your schedule allows.

Good morning,
After reviewing the comments submitted on the draft permit, I have one question.You state "stormwater runoff from
the antimony process area discharges only to Outfall SW002." However, in information you provided October 7, 2022,
the antimony processing area is shown as a part of Outfall SWO01 (see attached). Please confirm whether the
information in the attached site map is accurate. If it is not accurate, please provide an accurately updated site map as
soon as possible.
Thank you,
