FACILITY SUMMARY
This facility maintains a Surface -Water Pollution Control System managing stormwater and related
petroleum -contact waste -waters held in proximity to above -ground storage tanks (ASTs) and
appurtenant piping facilitating the distribution of hydrocarbon fuels, petroleum distillates, and
ethanol [surface bulk -storage exceeding one (1) million gallons]; this System consisting of
• truck -loading rack with stormwater runoff containment
[petroleum -contact water, containerized and recycled offsite];
• earthen berms [dikes] surrounding ASTs [secondary -containment areas]
• runoff -containment pond
• gravity drain piping with discharge sample point and gate
valve, hand- operated, normally closed
RENEWAL SUMMARY
This renewal contains the following changes:
• Section A. (4.) has been updated regarding electronic submission of effluent data. Federal
regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs).
• Facility owner has been updated throughout the permit.
• Section A. (2.) regarding flow measurement has been added and the corresponding footnote 2 in
Section A. (L) has been updated.

• Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) - In accordance with new Permitting Guidance statewide, WET
testing may not be permitted less frequently than Quarterly. Therefore, Quarterly monitoring has
been restored to this permit [see Section A. (L) and A. (3.)].
• Turbidity monitoring has been removed from Section A. (L) as the receiving stream is not impaired
for this parameter.
• The Monthly Average for Total Suspended Solids (TSS) has been added to Section A. (L). Review
of this facility's TSS data from the previous permit cycle suggests that this facility can meet this
new limit without a compliance schedule.
• Facility map has been updated.
COMPLIANCE HISTORY
No compliance concerns in the last permit cycle.
WHOLE EFFLUENT TOXICITY (WET) TESTING
The permittee shall conduct quarterly acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in E.P.A.
Document EPA/600/4-90/027 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents to
Freshwater and Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24-hour static test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all
waste treatment. The tests will be performed on a discharge event during each quarter (January -March,
April -June, July -September, October -December).
NOTE: Previous relaxed annual monitoring shall no longer be sufficient. New Guidance outlines NC
WET testing minimum frequency is quarterly statewide.
Facility has not failed any WET tests in the last permit cycle.
REASONABLE POTENTIAL ANALYSIS (RPA)
RPA based on data from last 4.5 years (2/2020-8/2024)
• Toluene: RP, added limits, monitoring increased to monthly.
Considering that the following fuel -related hydrocarbons remain parameters of concern, and that discharges
are relatively infrequent, monitoring shall continue 1/Month but without permit limits [NCAC 2B .0505]. If
no discharge occurs during a given monitoring period, the Permittee shall report "no discharge" on the
eDMR:
• Benzene: No RP, monitor and report.
• Xylene, Mixture: No RP, monitor and report.
• Ethylbenzene: No RP, monitor and report.
• Naphthalene: No RP, monitor and report.
• MTBE: No RP, monitor and report.
