The existing treatment components at the facility are the following: • Two (2) diked areas (secondary containment of ASTs and appurtenant piping) • Two (2) truck loading rack areas, each followed by oil/water separators • Two (2) holding ponds in series: o draw -off lagoon (with aeration devices) o drainage lagoon (settling pond to outfall) • Discharge control valve, manually operated/normally closed (a point -source discharge) The DMR reporting requirement was waived for this facility in March 2015. Tim Yancey with TransMontaigne informed DWR in 2015 that the tanks, piping and equipment at this facility were evacuated of all products in January 2007 and the facility has sat idle with no plans to reactivate the terminal since then. Based on a review of available DMR data, there have been only five discharge events since monitoring was waived, with all five discharges taking place in July 2018. Permit writers should note that this facility previously held coverage under the groundwater remediation general permit (NCG510454) at the site. Coverage under NCG51 was rescinded on October 8, 2019 based on information from the Winston-Salem Regional Office, stating that the Guilford Dept. of Public Health concluded that the contamination had been removed to sufficient levels and the system could be permanently shut down. Fact Sheet for Renewal Jul 2023 - NPDES Permit NC0069256 - Page 1 Renewal Summary This renewal contains the following changes: • Corrected the parameter code for Oil & Grease from [00556] to [00552]. • Updated Section A. (2) and corresponding footnote in A. (1) with correct language for Annual, Acute 24-hour WET testing [TAE6C], per permitting guidance for Petroleum Bulk -Storage facilities. • Updated Section A. (4) and footnote #1 in Section A. (1) to reflect current federal requirements for Electronic Reporting of Discharge Monitoring Reports. Compliance History Greensboro Piedmont Terminal has had no enforcements or violations during the past permit cycle. The most recent inspection (January 2020) showed the facility to be in compliance. Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) Testing In accordance with current permitting strategies for Petroleum Bulk -Storage facilities (see Sept 2005 Strategy), WET testing is required in this permit as an Acute, Pass/Fail 24-hour WET test [TAE6C] with Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas). This facility will continue to test Annually, however if the permittee fails any TOX test, they will be required to test each subsequent discharge until receiving a "pass" result, and monitoring will be changed to Quarterly thereafter. Reasonable Potential Analysis A reasonable potential analysis (RPA) would normally be performed during a renewal, however due to the lack of recent data as monitoring has been waived for the past 5+ years, an RPA was not performed. Comments on Draft Permit • WSRO had no concerns regarding the draft permit. • Public Water Supply approves of permit renewal.
