requirements. Your cooperation and assistance with the inspection were greatly appreciated.
Findings are addressed below: .
Permit:
This facility, holds Individual Stormwater Permit NCS 000030 to discharge stormwater from
industrial activity under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). A copy
of the current permit is required to be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP) documents. The current permit was available for review at the time of this inspection.
Records/Reports:
This facility was required to develop and maintain a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP) in accordance with Part Il, Section A of the permit. The inspector reviewed the SPPP
and found it to be up to date and current. No spills are reported and training is conducted as
required. No deficiencies noted. The facility has been waiting to receive the renewed permit
from Raleigh. The current one is expired but fees have been paid and site is current. Operation
to continue under expired permit requirements until the new permit is issues.
Facility Site Review:
Air products produces liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid argon by compressing air from
the environment. A small amount of trace gases is removed and is returned to the air. The
liquid gases are sold for use in a variety of manufacturing, construction and business trades. No
spills are noted. If there ever were a spill, the gases would evaporate instantly and return to the
air. The facility was very clean and well maintained. All storage tanks, have appropriate
secondary containment or are double walled.

Dear Mr. Mitchell:
Resources
Dee Freeman
Secretary
Mr. Mike Thomas of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
conducted a compliance evaluation inspection of the Air Products and Chemicals facility on 18 October 2012.
Your assistance and cooperation was greatly appreciated. Inspection findings are summarized below.
The facility is located at 225 Equity Drive in Reidsville, North Carolina. Stormwater related to industrial
activity is discharged from the site to an unnamed tributary to Little Troublesome Creek, which is currently
classified as Class C, nutrient -sensitive waters in the Cape Fear River basin.
Documentation and Monitoring Review
The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) is complete and current. Refresher training for staff is
conducted yearly and is part of new hire training. Training records are maintained in a computer based system.
Qualitative and analytical monitoring has been conducted as required and no problems have been
encountered. The Air Products & Chemicals facility has two Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDO), but they
have permission from this Division to monitor only outfall 001 as representative. Representative Outfall status
was granted via a letter dated February 1995. Qualitative monitoring is required at both outfalls.
Facility Site Review
The facility is extremely clean and well maintained. All storage tanks have appropriate secondary
containment or are double walled. The vehicle maintenance area was very clean with little to no oil residue
present in the work area.
Outfall 001 has significant erosion and down cutting in the discharge channel leading to the receiving
waters. Mr. Thomas suggested bracing the end of the pipe for added support and adding rock riprap to the high
energy area. No additional permitting will be required for this work as long as the work is confined to the area

I have also investigated the discrepancy regarding the Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen and Total Nitrogen reporting as required
by permit. It appears from our records that there was a miscommunication between Air Products and Chemicals Inc.
and the contract laboratory that performs this service. The oversight was not discovered and had continued on
subsequent sampling events. I apologize for the inconvenience. We have since contacted the laboratory and made
necessary corrections to prevent further occurrences.

HI Cory, I have looked at the information and this stream is still listed as impaired for biological integrity on the EPA
approved 2008 303(d) list. The 2005 basin plan information is still relevant. This watershed is also classified as nutrient
sensitive waters, which flow into Jordan Lake. There is a need to reduce nutrient runoff from this watershed. The
ambient data indicate relatively high levels of nitrogen and phosphorus in this stream at station 80160000 (Little
Troublesome Creek at SR 2600 near Reidsville). Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks

Hi Nora,
Just wondering if you have any new information on this creek that was not presented in the 2005 CF BWP? I have a
stormwater permit in review for a facility in Reidsville and the last time we renewed the permit was 2005 and we made
recommendations based on the 2005 Plan. Please pass along any new pertinent information that you may have

Dear Mr. Grim:
1. Ron Boone of the Winston-Salem Regional Office (WSRO) of the NC Division of Water Quality
(DWQ or the Division) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) at the subject facility
on 18 November 2009. Your assistance and cooperation during the inspection was greatly
appreciated. An inspection checklist is attached for your records and the inspection findings are
summarized below.
2. The facility is located at 225 Equity Drive, in Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina.
Stormwater related to industrial activity is discharged from the site to an unnamed tributary to tittle
Troublesome Creek, which is currently classified as Class C, nutrient -sensitive waters (NSW) in
the Cape Fear River basin.
Documentation & Monitoring Review
3. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) is complete and current. The only discrepancy
noted was that stormwater training is currently being done every five years, rather than every year
as required by the permit. Please begin yearly training as soon as possible and document as
required.
4. Qualitative and analytical (Q&A) monitoring has been accomplished as required and no problems
have been' encountered. There are only two SDOs, but Air Products has permission from the.
Division to monitor only outfall 001 as representative. Permission was granted via DWQ letter
dated February 1995 and letter is on file in the WSRO. Qualitative monitoring is required at both
outfalls regardless of representative outfall status.

RE: Air Separation Plant Expansion w � u�J
Stormwater Permit No. NCS000030 cv
Air Products and Chemicals. Inc. oo j
225 Equity Road
Reidsville, NC 27320 a
Dear Ms. Sullins:
Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (Air Products) plans to modify its air separation facility located in
Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. The modification will expand the liquid nitrogen
production with the addition of a liquefier cold box, a make-up/recycle compressor and replacement
of the existing main air compressor with a larger capacity unit.
The industrial gas manufacturing process includes compressing and liquefying the incoming
atmospheric air stream and then distilling the liquefied air into its principal components: oxygen,
nitrogen and argon. The equipment used in the air separation process includes compressors,
expanders, heat exchangers, a distillation column (cold box) and other miscellaneous equipment.
Atmospheric air is the only raw material used in the process and this operation is one of physical
separation, rather than chemical change.
Stormwater associated with the existing facility operations are discharged under Permit No.
NCS000030, issued by NCDENR Division of Water Quality. Referenced under Part III, Section E
"Reporting Requirements", Item 5 "Planned Changes", the permitee shall provide notice to the
Director as soon as possible of any planned changes at the permitted facility which could
significantly alter the nature or quantity of pollutants discharged:
No new chemicals will be introduced as a result of the proposed facility modification. Only
aggregate aboveground oil volumes will increase slightly due to the addition of new compressor
operating systems, thereby requiring modification and recertification of the Site's SPCC/SWPP
Plan.
Stormwaters associated with these new operating systems will be treated via the oil/water separator
1� prior to Site discharge. It is not expected that the constituents/quality of the Site's storm_water
discharge will be altered in any way with the increased nitrogen production. Therefore. this
` correspon ence is being forwarded to the Department for review and written comment.

RA
Written correspondence should be forwarded to my attention at the following address:

Dear Mr. Eberle:
The subject inspection was performed on December 21, 2005, by Mr. David Russell with our
Winston-Salem Regional Office. Mr. Russell met with you to do the inspection.
Your facility has two (2) permitted stormwater outfalls. Only the 001 outfall is
monitored since by letter dated February 22, 1995 from our Division, the two outfalls were
declared identical and only 001 required monitoring.
Both qualitative and quantitative monitoring had been done at the 001 outfall as required
by the permit. The required site plan was in order and no deficiencies were noted.
Should you have any questions please contact Mr. David Russell in our Winston-Salem
Regional Office at [phone].
