Has the permittee submitted a new ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ application? Is the facility as described in the permit? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ # Are there any special conditions for the permit? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is access to the plant site restricted to the general public? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is the inspector granted access to all areas for inspection? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Comment: Outfalls 002 — 009 consist of stormwater from the secondary containment structures (bulk petroleum ASTs). Outfall 010 discharges from an oil/water separator that collects stormwater from the pipeline manifold yard subsurface drains. The last compliance evaluation inspection at this facility was performed by DWR staff on 2/25/2020. Record Keeping Yes No NA NE Are records kept and maintained as required by the permit? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is all required information readily available, complete and current? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Are all records maintained for 3 years (lab. reg. required 5 years)? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Are analytical results consistent with data reported on DMRs? ❑ ■ ❑ ❑ Is the chain -of -custody complete? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Dates, times and location of sampling ■ Name of individual performing the sampling ■ Results of analysis and calibration ■ Dates of analysis ■ Name of person performing analyses ■ Transported COCs ■ Are DMRs complete: do they include all permit parameters? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Has the facility submitted its annual compliance report to users and DWQ? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ (If the facility is = or > 5 MGD permitted flow) Do they operate 24/7 with a certified ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ operator on each shift? Is the ORC visitation log available and current? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is the ORC certified at grade equal to or higher than the facility classification? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is the backup operator certified at one grade less or greater than the facility ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ classification? Is a copy of the current NPDES permit available on site? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Facility has copy of previous year's Annual Report on file for review? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ Page# 3 Permit: NCO031038 Inspection Date: 08/02/2023 Record Keeping Owner -Facility: Charlotte Delivery Facility Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Yes No NA NE Comment: The records reviewed durinq the inspection were orqanized and well maintained. Discharge Monitoring Reports (eDMRs) were reviewed for the period July 2022 through June 2023. No limit violations were reported. The facility staff will review and revise all applicable eDMRs starting in January 2022 to correct several transcription errors including units of measurement, flow values, ORC and/Backup ORC visitations (dates/times) and EPA Method 625 and toxicity results. Facility staff must ensure all eDMRs are accurate and complete prior to submittal. Laboratory Yes No NA NE Are field parameters performed by certified personnel or laboratory? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ Are all other parameters(excluding field parameters) performed by a certified lab? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑ # Is the facility using a contract lab? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑ # Is proper temperature set for sample storage (kept at less than or equal to 6.0 ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ degrees Celsius)? Incubator (Fecal Coliform) set to 44.5 degrees Celsius+/- 0.2 degrees? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ Incubator (BOD) set to 20.0 degrees Celsius +/- 1.0 degrees? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ Comment: Pace Analytical Services and ETT Environmental, Inc. (toxicity) have been contracted to perform permit -required analyses. S&ME staff are contracted to collect effluent samples. Facility staff should notify the contracted laboratory to analyze future effluent total recoverable phenolics samples at a lower detection limit (5 ug/L instead of 40 ug/L). Analytical methods shall be in accordance with 40 CFR Part 136 and shall be sufficiently sensitive to determine whether parameters are present in concentrations greater than applicable standards and criteria. Effluent Sampling Yes No NA NE Is composite sampling flow proportional? ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ Is sample collected below all treatment units? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑ Is proper volume collected? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ Is the tubing clean? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ # Is proper temperature set for sample storage (kept at less than or equal to 6.0 ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ degrees Celsius)? Is the facility sampling performed as required by the permit (frequency, sampling type M ❑ ❑ ❑ representative)? Comment: The subject permit requires effluent grab samples. Facility staff must ensure that the effluent is collected directly into the oil & grease sample container (no intermediate sample containers/devices). Operations & Maintenance Yes No NA NE Is the plant generally clean with acceptable housekeeping? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑ Page# 4 Permit: NCO031038 Inspection Date: 08/02/2023 Owner -Facility: Charlotte Delivery Facility Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Operations & Maintenance Yes No NA NE Does the facility analyze process control parameters, for ex: MLSS, MCRT, Settleable ❑ ❑ ❑ Solids, pH, DO, Sludge Judge, and other that are applicable? Comment: The NPDES facilities appeared to be properly operated and well maintained. The entire facility (including NPDES facilities) is inspected on a daily basis by the on -site staff. STAT, Inc. has been contracted to clean out the oil/water separator and dispose of the contents twice per year. Flow Measurement - Effluent Yes No NA NE # Is flow meter used for reporting? ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ Is flow meter calibrated annually? ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ Is the flow meter operational? ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ (If units are separated) Does the chart recorder match the flow meter? ❑ ❑ 0 ❑ Comment: The calculated flows for Outfalls 002 through 010 are based on the Rational Equation criteria (area of drainage area, total rainfall, etc.). The facility staff must ensure all effluent discharges are measured and reported on the eDMRs. Effluent Pipe Yes No NA NE Is right of way to the outfall properly maintained? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑ Are the receiving water free of foam other than trace amounts and other debris? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑ If effluent (diffuser pipes are required) are they operating properly? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑ Comment: The effluent from Outfall 010 appeared clear with no floatable solids or petroleum sheens. No discharges were observed from Outfalls 002-009: however, the accumulated water inside the secondary containment structures appeared clear with no petroleum sheens. No petroleum sheens were also observed in the receiving stream. Page# 5
