Permit: NCG180220 Owner - Facility: High Point Furniture Industries
Inspection Date: 09/28/2022 Inspection Type : Spill/Emergency Response Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) has been developed, but it is outdated and was missing several required
components. The facility has several storm drains that lead to one outfall. This inspection was conducted in response to a
fire inside of the facility that has led to minimal wood particles accumulated at the outfall. The five-day incident report has
been received by the Winston-Salem regional office and a final report should be submitted once the cleanup has been
completed. An updated Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) with documentation of employee training and a facility
inspection report and a qualitative monitoring report must be submitted the Winston-Salem regional office by January 6,
2023. If you have questions, contact me at Lily. [e-mail] or by phone at [phone].
