Subject: RE: Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc. (formerly Noveon, Inc.)
I Talked 40 \Nos about this yesterday. 'Alp did a combined SW with NCC/88 water once before —it was sort of a creative
approach that I worked with Brian Lowther on, because technically, when everything commingles, it is all wastewater.
told him we could look at doing this one that way at the next renewal, but it's a ways out (2014; 1 believe). The other
choice is for the facility to apply sooner for a major mod to the SW *permit (I wouldn't consider it minor). The issue
seemed to be comnliance with the NCG permit they have for the wastewater discharge. It seemed tome that several
permittees under that permit must have challenges trying to sample prior to commingling with stormwater. so I was
wondering how often you guys get that question or have chased compliance issues with it.
There is also the option of issuing an individual NCxx permit because it really is all technically a wastewater discharge;
we iust run the risk of losing the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan requirements and monitoring parameters unless
Ws coordinated with us.
Anyway, ultimately it's probably up to Bradley and Tom to decide whether this should stay as is (knowing there's a
oossible comnliance issue with where they currently sample the WW), or be condensed into one permit in one of our
grOUns.

Charles, I recently inspected Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc. (NCG500210 and NC5000321 Permits) found that the
noncontact cooling water (NCCC) and boiler blowdown (BB) wastewaters are comingled with the stormwater prior to
discharge. The NCCC and BB are discharged Into the facility's stormdrains at separate locations throughout the facility.
All stormwater and NCCC/BB are collected in an. initial concrete holding basin (221,228 gallon capacity) and is then
pumped to an adjacent concrete holding basin (418,160 gallon capacity). The staff initiate a recirculation pump (that
pulls from the bottom) to thoroughly mix this basin prior to collecting samples for process control to ensure the water
meets appropriate limits and detect any possible leakages/spills that could have happened in the plant. This
recirculation also provides some aeration to the water. An on -site lab performs these process control analyses and If all
parameters are within levels, then a discharge event will occur. When this happens, they contract a certified lab (twice
per year) to perform all required analyses (Wastewater and Stormwater) on the discharge. That's a quick background
and now here's the point of the question...
The NCCC/BP Permit requires sampling prior to comingling with stormwater; however, it's not currently feasible to
collect a representative sample prior to the basins. In addition, the NCCC and BB units are located throughout the
facility and it would be a quite an ordeal (economically) to attempt to pipe all these together to get an isolated sample
prior to comingling with the stormwater. The individual stormwater permit (expires 6/30/14) requires more sampling
parameters (BOD, COD, pH, TSS, Zn) than the NCCC Permit. Do you know of any way to address this situation besides
the facility applying for an individual NPDES Permit with the inclusion of the stormwater requirements. Could the NCCC
and BB limits be included In the individual stormwater permit? Thanks for any assistance you can provide with this
matter.

Stormwater Site Flows
As shown on Figure 2, there are four watersheds at this site.
Watershed 1: There are no production, shipping, receiving, or loading activities
occurring in this watershed. Watershed 1 includes non -contact
cooling water from the Acrylic Polymer Plant cooling tower
overflow and a small. amount of stormwater from the Acrylic
Polymer Plant production area. In order to direct the flow from
this watershed to the spill control basin, additional piping was
added in this area in 1996. As a result of the piping change, this
watershed drains through Outfall 02 at the discharge of the spill
control basin.
Watershed 2: The majority of the production, shipping, receiving, and loading
activities occur within this watershed. The Acrylic Polymer
Plant, the Latex Compounding Plant, and the SBR Plant are
included in this watershed. This watershed drains through
Outfall 02 at the discharge of the spill control basin.
Watershed 3: The only activity occurring in this watershed is the "bone yard"
storage area. The bone yard consists of scrap metal, scrap
equipment and other miscellaneous items. This watershed
drains through Outfall 03, a small, channelized discharge point.
Watershed 4: There are no production, shipping, receiving or loading activities
occurring in this watershed. Stormwater runoff from Watershed
4 does not have a central discharge point.
All industrial activity at the Noveon Gastonia site is contained in watershed 1 or
watershed 2. All stormwater from these two areas drains to the stormwater
basins before being discharged to surface waters. Stormwater retention basins
consist of two concrete basins piped in series. Stormwater from watershed 1 and
2 combine to enter the west basin which has a capacity of 221,228 gallons. If the
west basin fills, it will automatically overflow to the east basin which has a
capacity of 418,160 gallons. When the west basin fills, it will overflow to the
stream running through Noveon property. Under normal operating conditions,

all stormwater enters the west basin and is pumped to the east basin after
operators perform visual observation of the water. When the east basin level
reaches about half full, a visual observation is recorded along with the pH and

Joe,
Please find attached the information regarding the Biocide Worksheet Form 101 for Biosperse 261T that is used
in the cooling towers at Noveon. Outlined below are some of the parameters used in these calculations.
• Bleed off from the SBR Tower of - 3,500 gallons a day and the bleed off from the Acrylic Tower of
3,000 gallons a day.
• The maximum dosage of Biosperse 261 T to the Towers is 4 pounds per day. This equates to 1,680
grams a day using 92.5 % active BCDMH.
• The total basin volume is 0.740 gallons, 272,290 gallons in the west basin and 0.418,160 gallons in
the west basin
• Biosperse 261 T half life of 1 hour (0.0417 days)
• The Environmental profile sheet for Biosperse 261 T.
• pH of the basin water discharge is - 7.5.
This provides Noveon with the information used for the attached worksheets. Should you have additional
