Subject: Final NPDES Stormwater Permit'
Permit No. NCS000043
Airgas USA, LLC— Goldsboro Regional Plant
Wayne County
Dear Mr. Harris:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater permit
NCS000043, we are forwarding herewith the subject state NPDES permit. This permit is issued
pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum
of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated
October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
Monitorin; . This final permit contains one major change from the draft permit that was noticed on
April 29, 2015. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) was added to your requirements for analytical
monitoring. TSS monitoring is typically required at industrial facilities, and we believe it was
omitted from your previous permit in error. TSS monitoring is already required at other Airgas
facilities in North Carolina. Please begin monitoring for TSS at this facility with your first sample
under the new permit cycle.
The monitoring strategy remains the same (semi-annual) as the previous term of the permit.
Please note that analytical and qualitative monitoring is required in this permit. Failure to complete
the monitoring as required is a violation of the permit and any permit noncompliance constitutes a
violation of the Clean Water Act. Reference Part III, Section A, Item 2 "Duty to Comply", Item 9
"Penalties for Tampering" and Item 10 "Penalties for Falsification of Reports" of your permit for
further information.

4.0 BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
Airgas minimizes contact of significant materials with storm water by:
1, Applying paint with brushes and rollers to avoid overspray;
2. Practicing regularly scheduled preventative maintenance on mechanical equipment, and heating and air
conditioning equipment on -site;
3. Periodically inspecting and testing fire detection and suppression equipment including smoke detectors,
fire hoses, and sprinkler systems;
4. Practicing procedures for proper handling and storage of significant materials such as acetone, acetylene,
paint and paint thinner to prevent the incidence of fire;
5. Implementing procedures for responding to spills of significant materials; and
6. Annual spill response employee training.
Existing structural and non-structural control measures at Airgas to reduce pollutants in storm water discharges
include:
1. Secondary containment of acetone;
2. Secondary containment of heating oil;
3. Storage of paint in an enclosed structure;
4. Detention pond for erosion and sedimentation control;
5. Covered loading docks;
6. Secondary containment for drum oil storage at compressors;
7. Curbing and secondary containment around lime decant tanks;
B. Inside storage of liquid chemicals;
9. Used oil (aside from outdoor compressor oil); and
10. Gravel covered roadway and storage area
The following 8MPs were selected to minimize the impacts of the potential pollutants identified and are both
technically and economically feasible:

1. All outdoor liquid chemical/oil storage shall be inspected monthly for potential or existing leaks or spills.
2. The helium radiators will be inspected for cracks, leaks, spills or any signs of, potential antifreeze
discharge.
3. The shot blasting machine roof vent will be inspected periodically for particulate break through. The
drum storage area at the field service building is covered to eliminate exposure to storm water and with
secondary containment.
4. The miscellaneous outdoor equipment is not presently considered a significant pollutant source.
Therefore, eliminating storm water exposure is not economically feasible or justified. This area will be
inspected for signs of pollutants.
5.0 SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
The facility is currently undergoing construction of a new building. The facility has added a new outfall (Outfall 002)
as the result of this construction. Future analytical sampling and visual inspections will include this recently
installed outfall.

SECTION A: INDIVIDUAL PERMIT COVERAGE
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration,
the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activity.
Such discharges shall be controlled, limited and monitored as specified in this permit.
If industrial materials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described
in 40 CFR §122.26(g), the facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES
stormwater discharge permit requirements. Any owner or operator wishing to obtain a No
Exposure Exclusion must submit a No Exposure Certification Notice of Intent (NO[) form to
the Division; must receive approval by the Division; must maintain no exposure conditions
unless authorized to discharge under a valid NPDES stormwater permit; and must recertify
the No Exposure Exclusion annually.
SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES
Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge
stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system that
has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this permit. All stormwater discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this
permit.
Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an
allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization, or
approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this permit shall not cause or contribute
to violations of Water Quality Standards.
This permit does not relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any
other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or
decree.

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The SPPP shall be maintained on site unless exempted from this requirement by
the Division. The SPPP is public information in accordance with Part 1I1, Standard
Conditions, Section E, paragraph 3 of this permit. The SPPP shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
1. Site Overview. The Site Overview shall provide a description of the physical facility
and the potential pollutant sources that may be expected to contribute to
contamination of stormwater discharges. The Site Overview shall contain the following:
(a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted equivalent
map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation routes and surface
waters; the name of the receiving waters to which the stormwater outfalls
discharge, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate storm sewer system, the
name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters; and accurate latitude
and longitude of the points of stormwater discharge associated with industrial
activity. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify
whether any receiving waters are impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired
waters) or if the site is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been
established, and what the parameters of concern are.
(b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities,
outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and
waste disposal practices. A narrative description of the potential pollutants that
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall.
(c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: the site property boundary;
the stormwater discharge outfalls; all on -site and adjacent surface waters and
wetlands; industrial activity areas (including storage of materials, disposal areas,
process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads); site topography and
finished grade; all drainage features and structures; drainage area boundaries and
total contributing area for each outfall; direction of flow in each drainage area;
industrial activities occurring in each drainage area; buildings; stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs); and impervious surfaces. The site map must
indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious, and the site map
must include a graphic scale indication and north arrow.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants during the previous three (3) years
and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
Part 11 Page 1 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The permittee shall re -certify annually that the
stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater
discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the
requirements found in Part II1, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3.
Stormwater Management Strategy. The Stormwater Management Strategy shall
contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which
control or minimize the stormwater exposure of significant materials, including
structural and nonstructural measures. The Stormwater Management Strategy, at a
minimum, shall incorporate the following:
(a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to rainfall and run-on flows. Wherever practical, the
permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations,
and manufacturing or fueling operations. 4n areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, this review shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater
run-on away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bglk storage of liquid, materials; storage in gny amount of Section 313
of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water
r. rity chemicals: and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to
prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table or summary
of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment
areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected to
stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually
activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a
locking mechanism). Any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area
shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfali staining, visible
sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater.
Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by any
material. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the
description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release
shall be kept for a period of five (S) years. For facilities subject to a federal oil Spill
Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC), any portion of the SPCC Plan
fully compliant with the requirements of this permit may be used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a
Part 11 Page 2 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043 '
written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the
selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually.
3. Spill Prevention and Response Procedures. The Spill Prevention and Response
Procedures (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based
on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel responsible for implementing
the SPRP shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and
dated by each individual acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A
responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have
increased potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of
materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater
specific. Therefore, an oil Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC)
may be a component of the SPRP, but may not be sufficient to completely address the
stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may
be incorporated by reference into the SPRP.
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program shall be developed and implemented.
The program shall address all stormwater control systems (if applicable), stormwater
discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial
activity areas (including material storage areas, material handling areas, disposal areas,
process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), all drainage features and
structures, and existing structural BMPs. The program shall establish schedules of
inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping activities of stormwater control systems,
as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and facility systems that present a potential
for stormwater exposure or stormwater pollution where not already addressed under
another element of the SPPP. Inspection of material handling areas and regular
cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely
compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and
housekeeping shall be recorded and maintained in the SPPP.
5. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur
as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a
minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year (January to
June), and once during the second half Quly to December), with at least 60 days
separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually).
These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater
discharge characteristic monitoring at the outfalls required in Part 11 B, C, and D of this
permit.
6. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill
response and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. The facility
personnel responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their
annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
Part 11 Page 3 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
7. Responsible Party. The SPPP shall identify a specific position or positions responsible
for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision of the SPPP.
Responsibilities for all components of the SPPP shall be documented and position
assignments provided.
8. SPPP Amendment and Annual Update. The permittee shall amend the SPPP
whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, site drainage,
maintenance, or configuration of the physical features which may have a significant
effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of
the SPPP shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update
shall include:
(a) an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
(3) years, or the notation that no spills have occurred (element of the Site
Overview);
(b) a written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated far
the presence of non=stormwater discharges (element of the Site Overview);
(c) a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the on -site stormwater
BMPs (BMP Summary element of the Stormwater Management Strategy).
(d) a review and comparison of sample analytical data to benchmark values (if
applicable) over the past year, including a discussion about Tiered Response
status. The permittee shall use the Division's Annual Summary Data
Monitoring Report (DMR) form, available from the Stormwater Permitting
Program's website (See'Monitoring Forms' here:
http://porla_l.ncd_enr.org/web/•lr/npdes-stormwater).
The Director may notify the permittee when the SPPP does not meet one or more of the
minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee
shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the SPPP to meet minimum
requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with
Part ill, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes
have been made.
9. SPPP Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan and all appropriate BMPs consistent with the provisions of this permit,
in order to control contaminants entering surface waters via stormwater.
Implementation of the SPPP shall include documentation of all monitoring,
measurements, inspections, maintenance activities, and training provided to
employees, including the log of the sampling data and of actions taken to implement
BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities.
Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five (5) years and made
available to the Director or the Director's authorized representative immediately upon
request.
Part 11 Page 4 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1.
All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a measureable storm event at each
stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). Only SDOs discharging stormwater associated with
industrial activity must be sampled (See Definitions).
A measurable storm event is a storm event that results in an actual discharge from the
permitted site outfall. The previous measurable storm event must have been at least 72 hours
prior. The 72-hour storm interval does not apply if the permittee is able to document that a
shorter interval is representative for local storm events during the sampling period, and the
permittee obtains approval from the local DEMLR Regional Engineer. See Definitions.

this permit is revoked or rescinded, If the facility is monitoring monthly because of Tier Two or Three
response actions under the previous permit, the facility shall continue a monthly monitoring and
reporting'schedule in Tier Two or Tier Three status until relieved by the provisions of this permit or
the Division.
2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. When physical separation between
outfalls prevents collecting all samples within the first 30 minutes, sampling shall begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless
representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted. A copy of the Division's letter granting ROS shall be
kept on site.
4 For each sampled measureable storm event, the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain gauge
is required. Where isolated sites are unmanned for extended periods of time, a local rain gauge reading
may be substituted for an on -site i eading.
The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule
specified below in Table 2, unless adverse weather conditions prevent sample collection
(see Adverse Weather in Definitions). Sampling is not required outside of the facility's
Part 11 Page 5 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
normal operating hours. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period 1 and Period 2
sample dates, unless monthly monitoring has been instituted under a "Tier Two"
response. Inability to sample because of adverse weather conditions must be documented
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken within the monitoring period (see Part I11, Section E). However, for purposes
of benchmark comparison and Tiered response actions, the permittee shall use the
analytical results from the first sample with valid results within the monitoring period.

Footnotes:
1 Maintain semi-annual monitoring until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. The perNttee must submit an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline (180 days before expiration) to be considered for renewed coverage
under the permit. The permittee must continue analytical monitoring throughout the permit
renewal process, even if a renewal permit is not issued until after expiration of this permit.
2 If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report
indicating "No Flow" or "No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period.
Failure to monitor semi-annually per permit terms may result in the Division requiring
monthly monitoring for all parameters for a specified time period. "No discharge" from an
outfall during a monitoring period does not constitute failure to monitor, as long as it is
properly recorded and reported.
The permittee shall compare monitoring results to the benchmark values in Table 3.
Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase
management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management
Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. See below the descriptions of Tier One, Tier Two, and
Tier Three response actions below. In the event that the Division releases the permittee from
continued monthly monitoring and reporting under Tier Two or Tier Three, the Division's
release letter may remain in effect through subsequent reissuance of this permit, unless the
release letter provides for other conditions or duration.

The benchmark values in Table 3 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for
implementation of the permittee's SPPP. An exceedance of a stormwater benchmark value
is not a permit violation; however, failure to respond to the exceedance as outlined in this
permit is a violation of permit conditions.
If: The first valid sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for
any parameter at any outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving
sampling results.
2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select the specific feasible: source controls, operational controls, or physical
improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, and/or to bring
concentrations within the benchmark range.
4. Implement the selected feasible actions within two months of the inspection.
S. Record each instance of a Tier One response in the SPPP. Include the date and value of the
benchmark exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting the inspection, the selected
actions, and the date the selected actions were implemented.
6. Note: Benchmark exceedances for a different parameter separately trigger a tiered response.
Part 11 Page 7 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
If: The first valid sampling results from.two consecutive monitoring periods are above the benchmark
values, or outside of the benchmark range, for an s ecific parameter at a specific discharge outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One.
2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring and reporting for all parameters. The permittee shall
conduct monthly monitoring at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue
until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within benchmark range.
3. If no discharge occurs during the'sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly
monitoring report indicating "No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements.
4. Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive exceedances,
exercise the option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as provided below in Tier Three.
The Regional Engineer may direct -the response actions on the part of the permittee as provided in
Tier Three, including reduced, or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
5. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the SPPP.
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations throughout the permit renewal process.
If: The valid sampling results required fof the permit monitoring periods exceed the benchmark
value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on four
occasions, the,permittee shall notify the DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 30 days of receipt of
the fourth analytical results;
Then: The Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring and reporting frequency for
some or all of the parameters herein;
• require sampling of additional;or substitute parameters;
• require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls;
• require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures;
• require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize impacts
on receiving waters; or
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion;
• require the permittee to continue Tier Three obligations through the permit renewal process.
SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
The purpose of qualitative monitoring is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and identify new potential sources of stormwater
pollution. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls must be performed during a
measurable storm event.
Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of
representative outfall status. Qualitative monitoring shall be performed semi-annually as
specified in Table 4, and during required analytical monitoring events (unless the permittee
is required to perform further qualitative monitoring per the Qualitative Monitoring
Response, below). Inability to monitor because of adverse weather conditions must be
Part 11 Page 8 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
documented in the SPPP and recorded on the Qualitative Monitoring Report form (see
Adverse Weather in Definitions). Only SDOs discharging stormwater associated with
industrial activity must be monitored (See Definitions).
In the event an atypical condition is noted at a stormwater discharge outfall, the permittee
shall document the suspected cause of the condition and any actions taken in response to
the discovery. This documentation will be maintained with the SPPP.

2 Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each stormwater discharge outfall
(SDo) regardless of representative outfall status.
A minimum of 60 days must separate monitoring dates, unless additional sampling has
been instituted as part of other analytical monitoring requirements in this permit.
If the permittee's qualitative monitoring indicates that existing stormwater BMPs are
ineffective, or that significant stormwater contamination is present, the permittee shall
investigate potential causes, evaluate the feasibility of corrective actions, and implement
those corrective actions within 60 days, per the Qualitative Monitoring Response, below.
A written record of the permittee's investigation, evaluation, and response actions shall be
kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
Part II Page 9 of 12
Permit No. NCS000043
Qualitative monitoring is for the purposes of edaluating SPPP effectiveness, identifying new potential
sources of stormwater pollution, and prompting the permittee's response to pollution. If the
permittee repeatedly fails to respond effectively to correct problems identified by qualitative
monitoring, or if the discharge causes or contributes to a water quality standard violation, the
Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for some
or all parameters (analytical or qualitative)
• require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls;
• require the permittee to implement other stormwater coritrol measures;
• require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize
impacts on receiving waters; or
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.

SECTION D: ON -SITE VEHICLE MAINTENANCE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Facilities that have any vehicle maintenance activity occurring on -site which uses more
than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month when averaged over the calendar year
shall perform analytical monitoring as specified below in Table 5. All analytical
monitoring shall be performed during a measureable storm event at all stormwater
discharge outfalls (SDOs) that discharge stormwater runofffi-om vehicle maintenance areas,
and in accordance with the schedule presented in Table 2 (Section B).

permitting cycle. If the facility is monitoring monthly because of Tier Two or Three response actions
under the previous permit, the facility shall continue a monthly monitoring and reporting schedule in
Tier Two or Tier Three status until relieved by the provisions of this permit or the Division.
2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. When physical separation
between outfalls prevents collecting all samples within the first 30 minutes, sampling shall be begun within
the first 30 minutes, and shall continue until completed.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) that discharges
stormwater runoff from area(s) where vehicle maintenance activities occur, unless representative outfall
status (ROS) has been granted. A copy of the letter granting ROS shall be kept on site.
4 For each sampled measureable storm event the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain
gauge is required. Where isolated sites are unmanned for extended periods of time, a local rain guage may
be substituted for an on -site reading.
Failure to monitor semi-annually per permit terms may result in the Division requiring
monthly monitoring for all parameters for a specified time period, as provided in Part 11
Section B.
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table 6. The benchmark
values in Table 6 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). Exceedances of benchmark values require
the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record

Subject: Name/Ownership Change form - NPDES Stormwater permit
Rob,
z. -,
As we discussed, attached is a name/ownership change form for NPDE5 stormwater permits. I will update our database
with the most current owner and facility information and proceed with the permit renewal process once I receive the
signed form.
Here's what we have on record now (you'll use this for Section 11 of the form):
Permit No. NCS000043
Permit issued to: National Welders Supply Company, Inc.
Person legally responsible for permit: Mr. John Harris, V.P, Packaged Gas Operations, 109 Hinnant Rd, Goldsboro, NC
27530
Facility name: Airgas National. Welders — Loxco Division
Facility address: Highway 117 North, Goldsboro, NC
Facility contact person: Robbie Chase, 919-735-5315
From our conversation, it sounds like there has been a change in ownership, and the facility name has changed.
For your convenience in filling out the ownership change form, here is the information that was provided on the renewal
application:
Owner/Organization Name: Airgas, LLC
Owner Contact: Jerrell Cook (owner contact = person legally responsible for permit)
Owner Mailing Address: 5313 Old Dowd Rd, Charlotte, NC 28208
Owner Phone #: 704-644-3317
