Dear Mr. Schonover:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the permit name/ownership change form for the
subject No-Exposure Certification. Division personnel have reviewed and approved your
request to transfer the exclusion from NPDES stormwater permitting requirements.
Please note that by our original acceptance of the No-Exposure Certification and by our
approval of your request to transfer it, you are obligated to maintain no-exposure conditions
at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for the no-
exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for
your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an
un-permitted discharge.
Annual re-certification is required, and we have enclosed one blank Annual No Exposure
Exclusion Self Re-Certification form for your use. Your certification of no exposure does
not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental permits that may be
required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.

Dear Permittee:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No-Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form, which we received on March 22, 2004. We apologize for the extended period it
has taken us to get back to you on this request and we appreciate your patience as we have worked through
this process. Based on your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility
the Division is granting your certification as provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g)which is incorporated by
reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your no exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no
exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no-
exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater
discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your
conditional no-exposure exclusion expires in five years (April 30, 2010). At that time you must re-certify with
the Division, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any Stormwater discharges from your facility.
Your certification of no exposure does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental
permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Jonathan Diggs at(919) 733-5083 ext.
537, or at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
for Alan W. Klimek, P.E.

FORM `-, NO EXPOSURE CERTIFICATION for Exclusion from
3510-11 EPA
NPDES Storm Water Permitting
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notice that the entity identified in Section A does not require permit authorization for its storm water
discharges associated with industrial activity in the State identified in Section B under EPA's Storm Water Multi-Sector General Permit due to the existence
of a condition of no exposure.
A condition of no exposure exists at an industrial facility when all-industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter to prevent
exposure to rain,snow, snowmelt,and/or runoff. Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to,material handling equipment or activities,
industrial machinery, raw materials,intermediate products,by-products,final products,or waste products. Material handling activities include the storage,
loading and unloading,transportation,or conveyande of any raw material,intermediate product,final product or waste product. A storm resistant shelter is
not required for the following industrial materials and activities:
- drums,barrels,tanks, and similar containers that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed"
means banded or otherwise secured and without operational taps or valves;
- adequately maintained vehicles used in material handling;and
- final products,other than products that would be mobilized in storm water discharges(e.g..rock salt).
A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. In addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is
available on a facility-wide basis only, not for individual outfalls. If any industria4 activities or materials are or will be exposed to precipitation, the facility is
not eligible for the no exposure exclusion.
By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form,the entity in Section A is certifying that a condition of no exposure exists at its facility or site,
and is obligated to comply with the terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g).
ALL INFORMATION MUST BE PROVIDED ON THIS FORM.
