As consultant for Stevens Towing Co., I am submitting the enclosed application and supporting
materials related to NCG190000. This is being done in response to a NCDWR condition in a 401
Water Quality Certification requirement. We received a State Stormwater Permit Exemption notice
for this project (due to there being no net increase in impervious coverage), however, I have been
informed by NCDWR that this is a separate issue. Please contact me at [phone] or at
[e-mail] if you need any additional information.

Chowan River Barge Facility
Stevens Towing Co.
NCG i 90000
Introduction
The Site is an approximately 48 acre property on the Chowan River in Chowan County, North
Carolina. The Site is located at 125 Dye Plant Rd. and is accessible from Rocky Hock Rd. (SR
1222) and Dye Plant Rd. (SR 1220). The Chowan County Tax Property Identification Number
(PIN) is 697018414355. The subject property is the former Site of United Piece and Edenton
Dye Works, which was a dye plant for the textile industry from the 1965 through 2006.
The Site has received a CAMA Major Permit, 401 Water Quality Certification, State
Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permit, State Stormwater Exemption. In addition, this Site
has been accepted into the NC Brownfields Program in 2017.
Existing Conditions
Location of all existing improvements are shown on the CAMA Major Plan. There are two large
metal buildings that currently exist on the site. There are extensive asphalt and gravel roads on
the site, as well as concrete pads that once served as the foundation of accessory buildings and
storage areas, a boiler room and pump houses, etc. In the footprint of the Main dye plant
structure is the concrete foundation which was not demolished. There is an existing concrete
pier (extends approximately 860 linear feet into the Chowan River) on the subject property that
was built in conjunction with the dye plant.
Based on review of available elevation data (topographic maps, Google Earth data and collected
survey data), elevations of the site vary from about 5 feet above sea level to about 35 feet above
sea level.
Based on discussions with NCDEQ, DEMLR, all currently existing impervious surfaces, including
paved surfaces, compacted aggregate drive surfaces and roofed structures can be built upon
without the need for a State Stormwater Permit. If there is no net increase in impervious
coverage associated with the project, there would be no State SWMP required. There are two
existing stormwater discharge pipes (shown on the attached) that will remain_
Steven Towing has completed the permitted dredging associated with the barge fleeting area
and maintenance facility project. The permitted bulkheading has been completed and the
permitted ramp is under construction.
Stormwater Outfalls
There are two pre-existing stormwater outfall pipes that will remain. Their location is shown on
the plan and is included in the NCG190000 application.
The only other outfall is the permitted barge ramp that is under construction at this time. The
ramp location is shown on the plan along with a cross-section. This barge ramp will be used to
pull barges in for maintenance and for launching barges after on-site maintenance.
All sand blasting, painting and other debris generated in the maintenance bay will be collected
inside the contained bay. In the sandblasting process, the equipment used includes a 4,000 psi
jet vacuum with a return hose that allows water to be reused and self contains the sand used in

the process. Any runoff will be collected by a trench drain that will filter and direct runoff to an
infiltration basin (as shown and permitted). All solids collected in the bay and residues trapped
by the filtration system will be placed in a holding tank and property disposed of at an off-site
landfill. The water will be directed to an infiltration basin adjacent to the maintenance bay (in the
location shown on the plan) through a trench drain. The trench drain collector will be fitted with
an Aqua -Guardian TM Catch Basin Insert (or similar product) sized according to manufacturers
specifications and will be capable of removing TSS (sediment and paint chips) and oil and
grease that may be rinsed off of the boats. The proposed catch basin insert will provide filtration
to remove solids and will have a grease trap that will prevent oil and grease from entering the
infiltration basin. The insert will require maintenance based on the amount of usage according
to manufacturers specifications. During maintenance activity in the bay, a vinyl enclosure on
wheels will be rolled over the active working area to encase the barge and trap airborne
substances.
