Section 1. Facility Activities and Process:
The UFP Salisbury, LLC facility pressure treats wood and assembles pallets, skids, crates, and boxes.
The wood preserving operation is located within a building and the preservative is applied within a
closed cycle system that recycles process water back into the system and reuses the process suspension.
No waste or effluent is created or discharged. There is no discharge of process waters that come into
contact with the treatment chemicals or the treated wood product. The treatment plant has been designed
to contain the volume of all tanks inside the plant in the event of simultaneous failure.
Significant materials exposed to stormwater include copper-treated lumber, untreated lumber, wooden
pallets, and containers. Loading, unloading, and temporary storage of these materials occurs in the paved
and unpaved areas of the Storage Yard. Bunks of lumber are stored on blocks to prevent contact with
stormwater sheet flow. Fuel storage and vehicle fueling operations are conducted in the Storage Yard,
and all fuel ASTs are located under roofs and within secondary containment.
Outfall SW001:
Drainage area consists of an office, mill room, maintenance shop, industrial/specialty products
manufacturing, lumber storage, pallet machine shed/forklift repair shop, wood treating building and drip
pad, lumber storage sheds, sawdust collection, heat treating building, 100-gallon propane AST, 1,000
gallon propane AST, 500-gallon diesel AST, 500 gallon used oil AST, 1,000 and 275 gallon diesel
ASTs, and a stormwater detention basin.
Outfall SWO02:
Drainage area consists of lumber storage sheds and untreated lumber storage.

Why Industrial Sites with Stormwater are Subject to a Permit: Federal NPDES regulations define
stormwater discharge associated with industrial activity in 40 CFR §122.26 (b)(14) as: "the discharge
from any conveyance that is used for collecting and conveying storm water and that is directly related to
manufacturing,processing or raw materials storage areas at an industrial plant. The term does not
include discharges from facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program under this part 122.
For the categories of industries identified in this section, the term includes, but is not limited to, storm
water [sic] discharges from industrial plant yards; immediate access roads and rail lines used or traveled
by carriers of raw materials, manufactured products, waste material, or byproducts used or created by
the facility; material handling sites; refuse sites; sites used for the application or disposal of process
waste waters (as defined at part 401 of this chapter); sites used for the storage and maintenance of
material handling equipment; sites used for residual treatment, storage, or disposal; shipping and
receiving areas; manufacturing buildings; storage areas (including tank farms) for raw materials, and
intermediate and final products; and areas where industrial activity has taken place in the past and
significant materials remain and are exposed to storm water. For the purposes of this paragraph, material
handling activities include storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw
material, intermediate product, final product, byproduct or waste product. The term excludes areas
located on plant lands separate from the plant's industrial activities, such as office buildings and
accompanying parking lots as long as the drainage from the excluded areas is not mixed with storm
water [sic] drained from the above described areas."
Section 2. Monitoring Information and Compliance History:
• October 2019 to December 2022,benchmarks exceeded for:
o SW001: Copper(recoverable) 4x, TSS Ix
o SWO02: No sample data available for review(all results marked as no discharge)
o Samples taken at SW001 only annually; permit required semi-annual monitoring
• The facility was not found to be compliant during the 10/10/2023 DEMLR inspection:
o Site is in Tier 1 status for copper
o Employee stormwater training has not been conducted since June 2022
o Facility was informed that no-flow events should be documented with additional photos
if no-flow events are common
o Right side of the embankment at outfall 01 is eroding and undercutting the outfall pipe
o The facility must:
■ Continue monitoring as the tier response plan is implemented and report all
additional exceedances.
■ Provide and document employee stormwater training annually. Provide records of
this training being completed for 2023 to Mooresville regional office.
■ Repair and stabilize the erosion occurring around outfall 01.

Threatened/Endangered Species:
There are no threatened/endangered species in the nearby vicinity, however, the Appalachian Adder's-
mouth (Malaxis bayardii;NC status: SR-T) is a species of concern.
Section 3. Proposed Monitoring for Stormwater Discharges:
The Division considered potential pollutants from past and present industrial activities and data was
submitted for October 2019 to December 2022. Quantitative sampling included pH, TSS, copper, and
hardness.
Parameters are based on potential pollutants in the drainage area, sampling results, and in some cases,
dependent upon future activities (e.g., ash removal through the drainage area). Below is a table of the
proposed monitoring for each outfall at the UFP Salisbury, LLC site.
Outfalls SWO01 and SWO02
Quarterly monitoring
Total Suspended Solids BASIS: Potential pollutant from drainage area and BMP effectiveness
(TSS) indicator.
Quarterly monitoring
H BASIS: Pollutant indicator and important to interpreting toxicity potential
p of metals.
Quarterly monitoring
Total Rainfall BASIS: Discharge potential indicator
Quarterly monitoring
Non-Polar Oil &Grease BASIS: Potential pollutant from lubricants; Method 1664 SGT-HEM
targets petroleum-based O&G
Quarterly monitoring
Monthly Oil Usage BASIS: Potential pollutant from drainage area
Quarterly monitoring
BOD BASIS: Discharge potential indicator
Quarterly monitoring
COD BASIS: Discharge potential indicator
Quarterly monitoring
Total Copper BASIS: Potential pollutant from drainage area
Quarterly monitoring
Total Hardness BASIS: Monitoring for hardness dependent metals present
Stormwater Benchmarks and Tiered Response: Rather than limits,North Carolina NPDES
Stormwater permits contain benchmark concentrations. Stormwater benchmarks are numerical action
Page 3 of 6

levels for stormwater monitoring. Benchmarks are not effluent limits, and benchmark exceedances are
not permit violations. Benchmarks provide facilities a tool for assessing the significance of pollutants in
stormwater discharges and the effectiveness of best management practices (BMPs). Benchmark
concentrations are intended as guidelines for the facility's development and implementation of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP).
Benchmark exceedances require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions,
increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater BMPs in a tiered program. The permit establishes a
tiered approach to specify actions the permittee must take in response to analytical results above
benchmark concentrations. The tiered structure of the permit provides the permittee and DEMLR wide
flexibility to address issues that may arise with one or more parameters and/or outfalls.
Metals benchmarks are calculated to mimic acute water quality standards and with the guidance of
DWR. NC DWR follows established federal procedures for calculating acute standards when developing
the benchmarks. Just like the acute standards, metals benchmarks normally reflect one half of the
calculated Final Acute Value (the "1/2 FAV"). In most cases, translation into total recoverable values is
based on an assumed hardness of 25 mg/L and a total suspended solids (TSS) concentration of 10 mg/L.
Acute standards protect aquatic life from negative impacts of short-term exposure to higher levels of
chemicals where the discharge enters a waterbody. The Stormwater Permitting Program applies this
approach because of the ephemeral nature of rainfall events.
The Division may evaluate results to determine if a smaller suite of parameters for some outfalls is
adequate to characterize potential pollution or BMP effectiveness. For example, one or more metals or
other parameters may serve as an adequate tracer for the presence of ash pollution during disturbance or
ash removal in specific drainage areas at this site. For parameters that do not have a stormwater
benchmark, the Division may develop a benchmark value if appropriate toxicity data become available
or if rising trends in concentrations suggest a persistent source.
A summary of the benchmarks in the draft permit, and their basis, is below:
Parameter Benchmark Basis
Total Suspended 100 mg/L National Urban Runoff Program(NURP) Study, 1983
Solids TSS
H 6 s.u. —9 s.u. NC Water Quality Standard(Range)
Non-Polar Oil & Review of other state's daily maximum benchmark
Grease 15 mg/L concentration for this more targeted O&G;NC WQS that
EPA Method 1664 does not allow oil sheen in waters
SGT-HEM
BOD 30 mg/L BPJ; Based on Secondary Treatment Regulation(40 CFR
133.03
COD 120 mg/L BPJ; Generally found at levels 4x BOD5 in domestic
wastewaters
Copper Total 10 µ /L Acute Aquatic Criterion, 1/2 FAV
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: The proposed permit conditions reflect the EPA and NC's
pollution prevention approach to stormwater permitting. The Division's maintains that implementation
of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and traditional stormwater management practices that control the
source of pollutants meets the definition of Best Available Technology(BAT) and Best Conventional
Pollutant Control Technology(BCT). The permit conditions are not numeric effluent limitations but are
Page 4 of 6

designed to be flexible requirements for implementing site-specific plans to minimize and control
pollutants in stormwater discharges associated with the industrial activity. Title 40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) §122.44(k)(2) authorizes the use of BMPs in lieu of numeric effluent limitations in
NPDES permits when the agency finds numeric effluent limitations to be infeasible. The agency may
also impose BMP requirements which are "reasonably necessary" to carry out the purposes of the Act
under the authority of 40 CFR 122.44(k)(3). The conditions proposed in this draft permit are included
under the authority of both of these regulatory provisions. In essence, the pollution prevention and BMP
requirements operate as limitations on effluent discharges that reflect the application of BAT/BCT.
Flexibility in Tier Responses: Tier Two actions provide an opportunity for the permittee to propose an
alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Region:
• Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive exceedances,
exercise the option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as provided below in Tier
Three. The Regional Engineer may direct the response actions on the part of the permittee as
provided in Tier Three, including reduced or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
• If pursuing the alternative above after two consecutive exceedances, the permittee may propose
an alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Regional Engineer.
The permit therefore allows the permittee to petition the Regional Office for monitoring changes sooner
than Tier Three (upon any four benchmark exceedances) and gives guidance on one option to take. For
example, the permittee may request that mercury only be monitored semi-annually under the tiers, or
that only parameters over the benchmark be monitored more frequently. In this way, changes to the
monitoring scheme for any outfall could be handled outside of a permit modification.
Other Proposed Requirements:
• It is standard for Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP)requirements to include an
annual certification that stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-
stormwater discharges, and if any are identified, how those discharges are permitted or otherwise
authorized.
• Requirement to submit a request for permit modification if the facility identifies or creates any
new outfalls, removes outfalls, or alters any drainage area that changes potential pollutants.
• The Division expects the permittee to apply best professional judgment and consider the safety
of its personnel in fulfilling sampling obligations under the permit.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs). If a
state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs
electronically to the EPA.
• Quarterly QualitativeNisual Monitoring to assure regular observation of outfalls throughout
year.
Section 4. Changes from previous permit to draft:
• Regulaotry citations added
• Monitoring increased from semi-annually to quarterly for all parameters (qualitative and
quantitative)
• "No discharge" clarifications made
• Feasibility study and online SWPP certification requirements removed per updated stormwater
program requirements
Page 5 of 6

• eDMR requirement added
• Boilerplate language moved into body of the permit; boilerplate no longer attached
• Outfall-specific monitoring been implemented to reflect industrial activity and potential
pollutants specific to each discharge area
• Monitoring added for BOD due to presence of wood products onsite
• Monitoring added for COD due to the type of industrial activity occurring onsite
• Total recoverable copper replaced with total copper
• Monitoring for total hardness added for outfalls where monitoring for hardness dependent metals
is required
• Benchmarks updated for parameters per guidance from DWR Standards group on stormwater
benchmarks

On October 10,2023,a site inspection was conducted for the UFP Salisbury,LLC facility located 358 Woodmill
Road,Rowan County,North Carolina.A copy of the Compliance Inspection Report is enclosed for your review.
Curtis Pressley and Joe Mark were also present during the inspection and their time and assistance is greatly
appreciated. The site visit and file review revealed that the subject facility is covered under Stormwater
Discharge Permit Number NCS000218. Permit coverage authorizes the discharge of stormwater from the
facility to receiving waters designated as Town Creek, class C waters in the Yadkin Pee-Dee River Basin.
As a result of the inspection, the facility was found to be noncompliant with the conditions of the NCS000218
permit. Please refer to the enclosed Compliance Inspection Report for additional comments and observations
made during the inspection.
Please be advised that violations of the NPDES Stormwater Permit are subject to a civil penalty
assessment of up to $25,000 per day for each violation. If you or your staff have any questions, comments,
or need assistance with understanding any aspect of your permit, please contact me at [phone] or via
e-mail [e-mail].
Sincerely,
Jerry W. Eplin,PE

Inspection Summary:
A stormwater compliance inspection was conducted on October 10, 2023. The inspection was conducted alongside Curtis
Pressley on site and Joe Mark who provided information via the phone.
The site is in Tier 1 status for copper. Based upon an analytical study conducted by the facility, it is believed that the higher
copper result is due to the dust from the gravel in the parking lot by outfall 01. The response plan indicated the facility plans
to pave this area to reduce the potential source of the copper on site.
All portions of the stormwater pollution prevention plan were present. However, based on the records available on site,
employee stormwater training has not been conducted since June 2022.
Analytical and Qualitative monitoring records were on site at the time of the inspection and were being conducted per permit
requirements.The facility has reported a number of no-flow events. Mr. Pressley was informed that the facility should
document no-flow events with additional photos if they notice no-flow events are common.
All outfalls on site were observed during the inspection. The right side of the embankment at outfall 01 is eroding and
undercutting the outfall pipe.
The facility must:
- Continue monitoring as the tier response plan is implemented and report all additional exceedances.
- Provide and document employee stormwater training annually. Provide records of this training being completed for 2023 to
Mooresville regional office.
- Repair and stabilize the erosion occurring around outfall 01.

SUMMARY of STORM WATER BEST
MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPS)
IMPLEMENTED AT FACILITY

Summary of Storm Water Best Management Practices
Implemented at
UFP Salisbury,LLC
Salisbury, NC
In order to prevent contamination of storm water at the plant,the following best management practices
(BMPs)will be implemented:
Good housekeeping procedures will be utilized by the facility personnel to reduce the potential for
accidental spills and safety hazards. Housekeeping procedures will include prompt cleanup of all spills
and orderly material storage. Housekeeping practices will also include ensuring sufficient aisle space is
available for the movement of spill or emergency response equipment through the facility,as needed.
The need and reasons for good housekeeping and BMPs will be communicated and emphasized to each
employee and contractor working in the facility. Housekeeping practices will be part of each person's
job,with emphasis on preventing contamination,as opposed to remediating contamination after it has
occurred. Each supervisor is responsible for assuring that housekeeping will be completed as part of
each person's job.
The following lists provide various structural and non-structural BMPs specifically developed for wood
industry facilities as identified through various industry and regulatory sources.These BMPs will be
implemented,as applicable.The BMPs will be inspected and evaluated on an annual basis,and a record
of such activities will be maintained.These BMPs identify methods and practices employed by the
facility to minimize the contact of its products and equipment to storm water.
1.Housekeeping Practice BMPs
• General Policy.
o Floors are to be kept dry and free of waste material.
o Garbage and other waste material will be regularly collected and disposed of in appropriate
dumpsters. (OMP-Policy#7004,General Work Place Safety Rules)
o Sawdust accumulation that does occur will happen only in areas not exposed to storm
water.
o Every employee is responsible for good housekeeping and management will conduct
inspections.
• Trash Pickup.
o Trash and debris will be picked up as often as necessary to maintain the area. Exterior
dumpsters should remain covered and filled only to capacity.
• Loading and Unloading.
o These areas of the Storage Yard will be inspected regularly and kept free of clutter and
trash.
• Fuel Storage.
o Only authorized staff properly trained in spill prevention and response is authorized to
conduct fueling operations.Small releases during fueling operations(i.e.,drips)will be
cleaned up immediately.
• Product Storage.
o Areas will be kept free of clutter and trash. Storage areas will be located on stable,well
drained areas.
Page 1 of 2

• Equipment Maintenance.
o Areas are inspected regularly and kept clear of debris and discarded items.Vehicle
maintenance should be conducted in covered,paved areas to prevent exposure to storm
water.
2.Preventative Maintenance&Visual Inspections BMPs
• General Policy.
o The parking lot and plant yard are to be cleaned of any debris daily.
o Gutters,swales,ditches,and downspouts will be checked to ensure proper drainage as
needed.
o Fueling of vehicles will be done only by authorized staff properly trained in spill prevention
and response.
o Minor spills of fuel or oil around the yard will be absorbed with appropriate materials and
disposed of in an appropriate manner.
o Inventory control of the lumber products will be performed.During inventory,the storage
yard will be visually inspected to ensure that pollution prevention practices are being
implemented in the raw material and finished products'storage areas. (APM-Policy
#2501,Inventory Count Policy)
o Forklifts will be checked daily for leaks of petroleum or hydraulic fluid(OMP-Policy#7320,
Forklift Operator Safety and Qualifications).
o As a general rule,all plants are discouraged from using herbicides for weed control. If plant
management opts to use an herbicide for vegetation control,only non-restricted herbicide
will be used and all manufacturer's label directions be followed. (OPM—Policy#7105,
Hazard Communication/Right to Know).
3.Runoff Management BMPs
• Grading immediately around the buildings diverts surface storm water away from buildings and
material storage areas.The facility slopes downward to the northeast corner of the property where
storm water is conveyed into a dry,detention basin.This basin is covered by a well-established,
thick vegetative cover. The majority of storm water discharged into this basin infiltrates into the
ground.Discharges from this basin only occur during significant rainfall events.
4. Manufacturing Operations BMPs
• UFP's wood preserving operation is located within a building.The preservative is applied
within a closed cycle system that recycles water and reuses the process suspension so no waste
or effluent is created or discharged.There is no discharge of process waters that have come
into contact with the treatment chemicals or the treated wood product.All process waters
are recycled back into the system via a collection sump. The treatment plant has been
designed to contain the volume of all tanks inside the plant in the event of simultaneous
failure.
• New and used motor oil,hydraulic oil,lubricants,and cleaning products are stored in containers
ranging in size from one-gallon jugs,five-gallon pails,to 55-gallon drums.Used oil is stored in a 55-
galon drum within secondary containment.All of these materials are used and stored under cover.
• All of liquid petroleum ASTs are located under roofs and only properly trained staff are authorized
to conduct vehicle fueling activities.
