Sincerely, Trent Allen Environmental Engineer Enclosure cc: FRO -Surface Water Protection NPS-Assistance & Compliance Oversight Unit ADDENDUM The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program was established under the federal Clean Water Act and then delegated to the Division of Water Quality for implementation in North Carolina. The NPDES permitting program for stormwater discharges was established in 1990. Phase I focuses on site and operations planning to reduce pollutant sources. Through the NPDES permitting program industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are required to obtain permit coverage under a general permit or'an individual permit, depending upon the facilities SIC code and the industrial activity occurring at the facility. There are currently 19 active general stormwater permits in North Carolina. One condition that is applicable to both the general permits and individual stormwater permits is the requirement to develop and implement site -specific comprehensive stormwater pollution prevention plans (SPPP). These plans are required to include a comprehensive evaluation of the site and operations to reduce pollutant sources and prevent pollutant discharge. Copies of the general permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following webpage: http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/su/Fonns—Documents.htm Permit text, technical bulletins, discharge monitoring forms, and a Notice of Intent [which is the application of for coverage under a NPDES General Stormwater Permit] can be found at this web site.

Easley Governor William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources Kerr T. Stevens Division of Water Quality Effiffim RECEIVED MAR 19 2001 OFFICE Our office has received your letter dated 3/12/2001. Your letter was in response to a Notice of Violation our office issued IAC on February 28, 2001. We have reviewed the permit, your letter, and the circumstances surrounding the facility not collecting a second sample for the calendar year 2000. Our office is aware of the type discharge at IAC. We do realize that the discharge is in response to storm events. However, your NPDES permit contains a clause on the limits page which states, "should a representative storm event not occur at this facility during a quarter, the permittee sliall provide a record of storm events for the quarter demonstrating that a representative storm event had not occurred and sampling could not be conducted." To avoid future enforcement from our office, we recommend that you inform the Environmental Sciences Branch by letter should circumstances beyond the facility's control prevent collection and analysis of toxicity samples. Our office would also strongly encourage you to establish contacts with multiple labs in the event that your primary lab is unable to conduct toxicity testing for you. To assist you in this effort, I am enclosing a copy of a list of laboratories currently certified by us to conduct toxicity testing. Based on all the information presented to us, our office believes there was ample opportunity to collect two samples for the catendar year 2000; therefore, we have decided not to rescind the Notice of Violation which issued February 28, 2001. If you have any questions concerning this letter or your toxicity test requirement please contact Ms, Kristie Robeson with the Aquatic Toxicology Unit at (919) 733-2136.

Route 2, Box 521-C Red Springs, NC 28377 SUBJECT: Compliance Inspection Permit KCS000236 IAC, Inc., Robeson County Dear Mr. Andrews: on December 30, 1996, staff of the Fayetteville Regional Office conducted an inspection of the Industrial and Agricultural Chemicals site in order to evaluate compliance with the subject permit. The following items were noted: 1. Considerable progress has been made in regards to secondary containment around all liquid chemical bulk storage tanks.

Raleigh, NC 27607 Dear Mr. Bowden. ENV, MANAGEM" NT FAYETTEVILLE' EU, ':3!,EE.QE I have received a letter from Mr. Ken Eagleson. I have enclosed a copy of the letter. Our company is supposed to perform rvo Aquatic Toxicity tests. We were unable to obtain a representative stormwater sample until April of 1995. We did the toxicit.- testing at that time. We did not have another stormwater event un_'_1 October of 1995. We sent these samples to Oxford Labs who cannot d_ aquatic testing. We had planned to get another sample after this eemp-le but did not have an -other stormwater event. I want to clarify that we might have had another stormwater event during these times but, they might have been at night or ow a week- end when no one was here. Also, since we have to ship the ;ample for aquatic testing to Burlington the rainwater event has :-• be Monday through Thursday or it will exceed the thirty six hc-_r time period for aquatic testing. In April I returner to our facility at night to obtain the _squired samples. I would be happy to make every human effort to o'-lain three samples this year to make up for the missed samples. 1 have the required sample bottles and the carrier from Burlington Re_earch and have been waiting for some time to get samples this spring for our first quarter sampling but have not been able to because t_re has not been a representati-,e storm water event so far in January t= February at a time that I could obtain them. Please let me know if -:ou have any questions.
