Mallinckrodt Inc.
Wake County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater
permit NCS000136 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is 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
US Environmental Protection agency dated December 6, 1983.
Please note that the Division has revised the analytical monitoring strategy for individual
stormwater permits. Based on a.review of the permit monitoring data received to date, the
analytical monitoring measurement frequencies have been changed and cut-off concentrations
have been removed. These changes will be implemented for all second term individual
stormwater permits with analytical monitoring requirements. For those permits with analytical
monitoring requirements, Part II - Monitoring, Controls, and Limitations for Permitted
Discharges has been modified to reflect the change in monitoring strategy.
The qualitative monitoring strategy remains the same as the first term of the permit.
Please note that the semi-annual qualitative monitoring is a requirement of the 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 M, 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.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit
are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request
within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a
written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed
with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina
27611 -7447. Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please take notice this permit is not transferable. Part III, B.2. addresses the requirements
to be followed in case of change in ownership or control of this discharge.

shall be considered public infoUnation in accordance with Part 111, Standard Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of
this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following items:
Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the potential pollutant
sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of stormwater discharges. The site plan 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 water(s) to which the stormwater outfall(s) discharges, 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 point(s) of discharge.
(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.
(c) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of industrial activities
(including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas and loading and unloading areas),
drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area,
building locations, existing BMPs and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage
area that is impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants which
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the 3
previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
(e) Certification 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 III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a narrative description of
the materials management practices employed which control or minimize the exposure of significant
materials to stormwater, including structural and nonstructural measures. The stormwater management
plan, 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
stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage areas, material
handling operations, and manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of
exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment for bulk storage
of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals, or storage of hazardous substances to
prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment
devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be
controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured with a
Part II Page I of 6

prior to release of the -accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found
to be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. 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 years.
(c) BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management Practices (BMPs)
to be considered such.as, but not limited to, oil and grease separation, debris control, vegetative
filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention, where necessary. The need for
structural BMPs shall be based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute. significant
quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges.
Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) shall incorporate an
assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel
(or team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site
at all times during facility operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills
or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific.
Therefore, a SPCC plan 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. '
Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative maintenance program shall be
developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater
control systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning
schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program.

Dear Mr. Roberts:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater
permit NCS000136 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is 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
US Environmental Protection agency dated December 6, 1983.
Please note that the Division has revised the analytical monitoring strategy for individual
stormwater permits. Based on a review of the permit monitoring data received to date, the
analytical monitoring measurement frequencies have been changed and cut-off concentrations
have been removed. These changes will be implemented for all second term individual
stormwater permits with analytical monitoring requirements. For those permits with analytical
monitoring requirements, Part II -'Monitoring, Controls, and Limitations for Permitted
Discharges has been modified to reflect the change in monitoring strategy.
The qualitative monitoring strategy remains the same as the first term of the permit.
Please note that the semi-annual qualitative monitoring is a requirement of the 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 M, 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.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit
are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request
within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a
written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed
with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina
27611 -7447. Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please take notice this permit is not transferable. Part III, B,.2. addresses the. requirements
to be followed in case of change in ownership or control of this discharge.

stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours.
19. Representative Outfall Status
When it is established that the discharge of stormwater runoff from a single outfall is representative of the
discharges at multiple outfalls, the DWQ may grant representative outfall status. Representative outfall
status allows the permittee to perform analytical monitoring at a reduced number of outfalls.
