SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Greensboro Terminal
NPDES Permit #: NCO022209
Guilford County
On May 17t'', 2023, Division of Water Resources staff Ron Boone conducted a routine compliance
inspection at Motiva Enterprises' Greensboro Terminal. Megan Boush and Mike Bennett were present
during the inspection. A review of records, data, treatment components, and structures was completed.
This inspection reflected compliance with the subject permit.
Observations:
1. All loading rack drainage enters a trench drain that conveys drainage to an 8,000 gallon oil/water
separator (OWS).
2. OWS effluent is transferred to the onsite wet holding pond under normal conditions. If abnormal
conditions occur, i.e. a fuel spill at the rack or if the amount of fuel spilled overwhelms the OWS,
any contaminated effluent would flow to the wet holding pond and the pond would have to be
cleaned up.
3. The OWS is pumped down completely about twice yearly to remove water and sediment from the
bottom.
4. Once the wet holding pond level reaches or nears its maximum level, operators assess the
condition of its contents and determine if the pond should discharge. Wet holding pond contents
are manually released via a normally locked -closed gate valve to an unnamed tributary to Long
Branch, Class WS-IV* waters in the Cape Fear River Basin.
5. Flow is measured via a McCrometer ML series main line flow meter.
6. McCrometer recommends users send meter to factory every four years for calibration. Currently,
Motiva simply replaces the meter every four years.
7. Discharge monitoring reports and laboratory reports for July and December 2022 were reviewed
and no discrepancies were noted.
No other items of concern were noted.
Please be aware that pursuant to North Carolina general statute (NCGS) 143-215.6A, the Division may
assess civil penalties not to exceed $25,000 per day against any person who fails to fully comply with the
requirements of a permit issued pursuant to NC General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.1., as is NC0088552.
