Dear Ms. Speed:
Shield Engineering, Inc. (Shield) was unable to collect stormwater samples at the Cleveland facility for
the month of December 2016. According to rainfall data collected for the month, rain events occurred on
December 4th, 18`x', 25th and 29th, measuring 0.51 inches, 0.18 inches, 0.04 inches, and 0.17 inches,
respectively. An additional 0.28 inches, 0.16 inches, 0.11 inches, 0.02 inches, 0.09 inches, and 0.01
inches of rain were measured on December 5th, 6°', 7`�', 8`l', 9th, and 11"', respectively. However, each of
these events took place after normal business hours, within 72 hours of the last qualifying storm event,or
did not produce enough rainfall to collect a sample. Shield will continue to monitor daily weather
conditions and attempt to continue coordination of appropriate staff and resources to facilitate adequate
sample collection. Per Section,2 Part IV of General Permit No. NCG030000 Shield will attempt to
collect a substitute sample and perform a visual assessment during the next qualifying storm event. A
partially completed DMR form is attached to this cover letter for your signature and submittal to the State.
Daimler's Cleveland facility remains in Tier Three of the NPDES General Permit No. NCG030000 at
SDO#002. The person designated to act as the permittee by Daimler Trucks—Cleveland Facility should
complete all "Red" sections of the attached Stormwater Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR). The
completed DMR form should then be mailed to the regulatory agency Central Files. Shield greatly
appreciates the opportunity to provide environmental services to Daimler Trucks of North America. If
you have any questions in reference to this document or require further information, please feel free to
contact either of the undersigned at(704)394-6913.

a Monthly sampling(instead of semi-annual) must begin with the second consecutive benchmark exceedance for the same parameter at the same outfall.
2 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.
4 See General Permit,Table 3 identifying the especially sensitive receiving water classifications where the more protective benchmark applies.
5 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).

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."
