1 Monthly sampling (instead of semi-annual) must begin with the second consecutive benchmark exceedance for the same parameter at the same outfall.
Z For sampling periods with no discharge at any single outfall, you must still submit this discharge monitoring report with a checkmark here.
3The total precipitation must be recorded using data from an on-site rain gauge. Unattended sites may be eligible for a waiver of the rain gauge requirement.
° See General Permit, Table 3 identifying the especially sensitive receiving water classifications where the more protective benchmark applies.
s Total Toxic Organics sampling is applicable only for those facilities which perform metal finishing operations, manufacture semiconductors, manufacture
electronic crystals, or manufacture cathode ray tubes. For purposes of this permit the definition of Total Toxic Organics is that definition contained in the EPA
Effluent Guidelines for the facility subject to the requirement to sample (for metal finishing use the definition as found in 40 CFR 433.11; for semiconductor
manufacture use the definition as found in 40 CFR 469.12; for electronic crystal manufacture use the definition as found in 40 CFR 469.22; and for cathode ray
tube manufacture use the definition found in 40 CFR 469.31).
Permit Date: 11/1/2012-10/31/2017 SWU-245, last revised 10/25/2012

Facilities that incorporate a solvent management plan into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan may so certify, and the requirement for TTO monitoring
may be waived. The solvent management plan shall include a list of the total toxic organic compounds used and the other elements listed in the General
Permit. For those facilities electing to employ the TTO monitoring waiver, the discharger shall sign the following certification statement:
"Based upon my inquiry of the person or persons directly responsible for managing compliance with the permit monitoring requirement for total toxic organics
(TTO), I certify that to the best of my knowledge and belief, no dumping of concentrated toxic organics into the stormwater or areas which are exposed to rainfall or
stormwater runoff has occurred since filing the last discharge monitoring report. I further certify that this facility is implementing the all the provisions of the
solvent management plan included in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan."

Note: Results must be reported in numerical format. Do not report Below Detection Limit, BDL, <PQL, Non -detect, ND, or other similar non -numerical
format. When results are below the applicable limits, they must be reported in the format, "<XX me/L", where XX is the numerical value of the detection
limit, reporting limit, etc. in mg/L.
Note: If you report a sample value in excess of the benchmark, you must implement Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3 responses. See General Permit text.
Part B: Vehicle Maintenance Area Monitoring Results: only for facilities averaging > 55 gal of new oil per month.

Semi -Annual Summary Stormwater DMR
NPDES Permit No. NCG030000
Certificate of Coverage No. NCG030127
Dear Administrator:

Salisbury, NC 28146

Enclosed are two signed copies of the monthly Stormwater Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) for the
Norandal, USA Salisbury Plant covering the period of January -February 2015. The report covers a "No Flow"
condition for all of January, as well as a stormwater event that occurred on February 9`h, 2015. As required by
General Permit No. NCG030000, samples are taken on a monthly basis after measureable rainfall events, due to
the exceedances for Copper and Zinc, above the benchmark values.
As of the September 2014 sampling event, we exceeded the benchmark values for both copper and zinc for a
fourth time. We made the proper notifications and received a letter back from Zahid S. Khan, a Regional
Engineer. We continue to conduct monthly monitoring and have initiated an Engineering Study to better
understand any sources of copper and zinc that may be affecting our monitoring results. The February DMR
shows we have reduced levels of both copper and zinc, but not yet below the benchmark levels.
Should you have questions or comments, please contact me at [phone].
