Permit: NCG030721 Owner-Facility:Southwire Company LLC-Youngsville
Inspection Date: 01/10/2024 Inspection Type:Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
The facility was able to provide additional information on the SWPPP after the inspection. The SWPPP was generic and was
not site specific and many of the permit requirements were no available including a list of significant spills, feasability study
and site specific BMP summery. They did perform regular inspections but they didn't focus on all the areas of concern or
specifically what to look for and the ionspections were only done during the second shift. Although there is training materials
in the SWPPP no one knew they had the training.
The facility has added a shelter to store wood materials under outside and have included connex boxes to store materials
outside. The facility has also installed hand operated roll-off dumpster covers to cover roll-offs during rain. The facility has
made significant effgerts to keep everything under cover to prevent pollutants in the stormwater. We suggest additional
training that is site specific and continued inspections to maintain no exposure.
I recommend the no exposure be approved due to efforts by the facility to store and stage everything under cover.
