Box 9002 Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 Dear Mr. Walton: APR 2 5 ZOOS BY; Subject: Draft NPDES Stormwater Permit Permit No. NCS000173 NC Ports Authority - Morehead City Terminal Carteret County Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit: • Removed monitoring for outfall 103, which is now part of PCS Phosphate's proposed individual NDPES stormwater permit (NCS000520). The renewal permit can only be issued once NCS000520 is finalized. • Expanded PK Oil and Grease (O&G), and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) monitoring requirement to all representative outfalls in Part H, Sec. B. Included outfall 911A1 as a representative outfall for vehicle maintenance. (The Port already initiated analytical monitoring at this outfall during last permit term.) • Analytical monitoring has changed from annual to semi-annual. This change is based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater discharge sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. Please note that analytical and qualitative monitoring must be performed during a representative storm event. + Added sampling at representative outfalls 402 and 506A1 to capture runoff from asphalt plant operations (asphalt paving mixtures and blocks [SIC 29511 is an industrial activity subject to NPDES stormwater regulations). Note Total Phosphorus UP) monitoring is included at 506A1 because phosphoric acid is used as a neutralization chemical. • Instead of "cut-off concentrations," the Division has incorporated benchmark values into the permit. These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for your facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP)_ If any measurements exceed benchmark values, your facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its Best Management Practices (BMPs) and document efforts to address stormwater contamination You should also follow the tiered response actions outlined by the permit (see Part 11, Sections B and D). �� Nmth Carnhua Division of Water Quality 1617 Mail Service CenterRaleigh, NC 27699-1617 Phone (919) 733-5083 Customer Service Intemet: www.ncwatcn nWity.fr Location: 512 N.

Facility personnel (or team) responsible far implementing the training shall be identified. 6. Responsible Party. The,Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific position(s) responsibl`e4for-the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented and position assignments provided_ 7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance that has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan 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 Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes have been made. Part II Page 3 of 10 Permit No. NCS000173 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 representative storm event. The required monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours.

Facilities considered to be engaged in "industrial activities" include those activities defined in 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14). The term does not include discharges from facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan A comprehensive site -specific plan which details measures and practices to reduce stormwater pollution and is based on an evaluation of the pollution potential of the site. Ten Year Desian Storm The maximum 24 hour precipitation event expected to be equaled or exceeded on the average once in ten years. Design storm information can be found in the State of North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual. Part VI Page 4 of 5 Pages Permit No. NCS000173 31 32.

Total flow shall be either; (a) measured continuously, (b) calculated based on the amount of area draining to the outfail, the amount of built -upon (impervious) area, and the total amount of rainfall, or (c) estimated by the measurement of flow at 20 minute intervals during the rainfall event. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) A TMDL is a calculation of the maximum amount of a pollutant that a waterbody can receive and still meet water quality standards, and an allocation of that amount to the pollutant's sources. A TMDL is a detailed water quality assessment that provides the scientific foundation for an implementation plan. The implementation plan outlines the steps necessary to reduce pollutant loads in a certain body of water to restore and maintain water quality standards in all seasons.

Sullins Director Division ofwater Quality Y STAFF REVIEW AND EVALUATION w-tR0 NPDES Stormwater Permit Facility Name: North Carolina State Ports Authority —Morehead City Terminal NPDES Permit Number: kG§000 �73 Special Note: This is a revised staff report request (original sent in 2006) for this facility. One of the tenants, PCS Phosphate, has applied for a separate individual stormwater permit (NCS000520 drafted and sent to WiRO this month). Facility Location: Morehead City, NCj(Carteret"County) Type of Activity: Industrial —Deep Water Port, Marine Cargo Handling SIC Code: 4491 Receiving Streams: Newport River -- Restricted Area/Morehead City Harbor and Bogue Sound/Harbor Channel [See Figure 1] Impaired Waterbodies? Not listed, but contiguous to waters closed to shellfishing (fecal contam.) River Basin: White Oak River Basin, Sub -basin 03-05-03 Stream Classification: SC (correction from previous staff report - Restricted Harbor Area is SC, not SA HQR,) Proposed Permit Requirements: See attached draft permit.

DiMculty Rating: 22/40 Special Issues Explanation: • Note - section of Newport River and Bogue Sound contiguous to Restricted Harbor Area are classified SA; HQW. Shellfish waters there impaired from fecal contamination. • Proposed individual stormwater permit for PCS Phosphate, so will no longer be under Port's permit. • Going through EIS review process in 2006 for proposed break bulk facility expansion across channel Page 1 of 9 NCS000173 on Radio Island. This is the old AFT (aviation fuel terminal) site, and ground remediation was under way. PCS also stores materials at this site (sulfuric and phosphoric acid). At the time there wele no apparent point source discharges of stormwater from the property; however, after development, the NCPA planned to have an infrastructure to convey stormwater runoff (has not yet happened). Description of Activities: Multiple activities and transfer of various products occur at this site. At the time of a site visit with the region in early 2006, the Port was a major importer of unprocessed rubber (all stored inside). There were also numerous railcars of borate from mining. The Port also leases to several government and private companies, such as: Owens Corning operates the Trumbull Asphalt facility (changed name to?) Morehead City Terminals operates a bulk wood chip handling facility ✓" a b'U Gcr--a- Since last renewal, the company had no significant changes in industrial activities but has made improvements by residing several transfer towers to reduce fugitive emissions —potential stormwater contamination. At the Port's urging, PCS Phosphate (bulk handling of fertilizer) will finally be covered under a separate individual stormwater permit (status: drafted and sent to the region for comment). This will result in a change in monitoring for at least one outfall. Documents Reviewed: • Stormwater Permit Files • White Oak Basinwide Plan • Final 2006 & DRAFT 2008 303(d) Lists; TMDL Documents • EPA Sector -Specific Permit, 2000 & Draft 2006 permits • Natural Heritage Program's Federal Threatened and Endangered Species Database • Check 40 CFR Subchapter N, Stormwater Effluent Guidelines History: • 1/27/2006: WiRO (L. Willis) performed inspection. See 2006 staff report for NCS000173 renewal permit. After much back and forth about whether PCS Phosphate would apply for a separate permit, the Port's draft renewal permit (retaining the PCS facility) was scheduled for public notice on 1/17/2007. Held it back from notice because PCS Phosphate finally agreed to apply for a separate permit. • 215/2007: PCS application for individual NPDES stormwater permit received. Reassigned late 2007; draft and staff report request to WiRO in March 2008.

Owner's Other Permits: T11Z • Tenants have other permits: 3 4r-4�4-J • Morehead City LLC also has two outfalls covered by NPDES wastewater permit No. NC00776661 That permit allows discharge of treated runoff from bulk storage materials (wood chips, crushed stone, and steel slag) that has been routed through settling basins. • Trumball Asphalt Plant: The property used to belong to Owens Corning but was sold in 1997 to the Port, so now Coming is only a tenant. The old wastewater permit for O/W separator discharge (NC0007749) was rendered inactive after the transfer and was never reissued. The only NPDES wastewater permit Owens Coming continues to renew is NCG500354 (non -contact cooling, boiler blow -down). 2. General Observations: Biggest challenge at this site will be good housekeeping to control contamination from track -out and fugitive dust. 3. Impairment: This area of the Newport River (Restricted Harbor Area surrounding the Port) is not impaired; however, sections of the river contiguous to this area are on the 2006 303(d) List and Draft 2008 List. Those shellfish waters are impaired because of fecal contamination (closed to shellfishing). The White Oak Basinwide Plan cites runoff from urban areas and subdivisions (populations and development have increased significantly in the past five years along this area of the coast, including in Morehead City). While fecal coliform (more recently an enterococcus standard for salt waters applies instead) is certainly a concern for this receiving water, the activities conducted at Port are not generally expected to be a source. The reviewer determined bacteriological monitoring is not appropriate at this time. However, TMDL language in the permit notes the problem. It should be noted that Calico Creek, which flows into the Newport River to the west of the Port, was added to the Draft 2008 303(d) List because of fecal coliform, chlorophyll a, dissolved oxygen (DO), and turbidity Page 3 of 9 NCS000173 violations. Major water quality impacts in the creek are from urban nonpoint sources and the Morehead City WWTP, which contributes significant oxygen consuming wastes and nutrients. The creek is not classified SA, but it is permanently closed to shellfish harvesting by DEH. The Basinwide Plan documents pending upgrades to the WWTP, more stringent effluent limits, and recommends a nondischarge alternative. This WWTP point source is "upstream" (though tidal waters are not so well flushed) of the PCS facility at the Port, but it does add to Calico Creek's pollutant loading on the Newport River. These conditions establish a need for the Port and its tenants to reduce potential bacteria, nutrients, and oxygen demand introduced during storm events as much as possible. 4. Threatened and -Endangered: None noted. A federal "species of concern" (Southern Hognose Snake) and a state species of "special concern" (Carolina Diamondback Terrapin) in the database for surrounding area. i 5. Sto6water Effluent Guidelines: 40 CFR §418.11 stormwater effluent limits apply to asphalt plants facilities; however, this site is a bulk handling operation only. The draft permit proposes benchmarks for pollutants of concern and a tiered set of responses based on exceedances but does not include effluent limits at this time. A case might be made for TP and fluoride limits in the future if there are compliance issues and/or water quality impacts. 6. EPA MultiSector General Permit: EPA's 2000 MSGP requires monitoring for total recoverable aluminum, iron, lead, and zinc. The 2006 Draft MSGP proposes to add TSS, monitoring in addition to these metals. However, the MSGP also includes marinas in the Water Transportation Sector (Marinas are covered by a separate General Permit in North Carolina). TSS will now be monitored at all representative outfalls at the Port, but no metals monitoring is recommended at this time. 7. Location: This site discharges stormwater to the Restricted Morehead City Harbor Area, classified as SC waters. Note that the section of the Newport River contiguous to the restricted harbor area is classified SA; HQW. 8. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: PCS Phosphate no longer included — will be permitted separately (proposed NCS000520). Only redevelopment activities —new warehouse added near Berth #9. 9_ Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. Elevated COD levels at all but one outfall. NCPA has been cognizant of high levels and has made improvements to lower stormwater impacts; for example, the port has covered bulk conveyor belts, purchased a new street sweeper, and implemented routine maintenance. During sampling event in 2/2004, records for outfalls 103 & 5I0 noted "completely dry" conditions, :and no analytical results were available. The company failed to sample outfall^80_3_for phosphorus during the past permit term, but levels during 1996-99 were between 1-2 mg/l. 10. Oualitative Monitoring Notes: 2000-04 records from Central Files reviewed; very few problems. Noted higher suspended solids at outfall 907 (Wood Chip storage) in only one quarter. (Runoff from chip operations treated prior to discharge, covered under NC0077666).

O&G and TSS are appropriate indicators for stormwater contamination at a large transit facility and inexpensive to monitor, and these parameters are already required for the subset of outfalls with drainage from vehicle maintenance areas. In addition, TSS monitoring at outfalls 402 and 502 (added to capture asphalt plant runoff) is consistent with the NCG16 general stormwater permit for asphalt operations. Although fecal coliform is a problem in these waters, do not expect port operations to be a significant source. (Would also be difficult to assess contribution with marine birds usually congregating near ports.) Outfall 103 no longer applies to this permit because it is part ofPCS Phosphate and TP will be monitored there under NCS000520. Reviewer recommends retaining TP monitoring at outfall 803 but eliminating the requirement for other representative outfalls at the Port because (1) TP levels were low and (2) would not expect phosphorus to be a major pollutant of concern at the other outfalls. Representative Gutfalls: Possible representative outfalI revisions were considered during initial review (see 2006 staff report request). This draft permit recommends to: • Add sampling at outfall 911A1 to vehicle maintenance monitoring (site already initiated monitoring). • Retain sampling at 506B1 & 911A1 outfalls because COD and/or TSS levels were elevated, and because these outfalls represent vehicle maintenance areas. Because the Port has the ability to sample drop inlets that segregate these areas, them is a benefit to keeping these sample locations. • Add sampling at 402 and 506A1 (just downstream of the O/W separator) to capture asphalt operations. The old wastewater permit for the oil/water separator discharge (NC0007749, previously issued to Owens Corning) is no longer active, and none of the other outfalls captures runoff from asphalt plant operations —an industrial activity subject to NPDES stormwater regulations- Outfall 506A 1 will better segregate the asphalt plant activities and eliminate redundancy with 506E I . • Add TP sampling at 506 Al because phosphoric acid is used as a neutralization chemical (potential residue from this discharge exposed to stormwater). • No sampling added for fish meal operation since discharge sheet flows at north of property. Monitoring frequency will increase to semi-annually to ensure at least nine data points are collected through the permit term and to be consistent with qualitative monitoring frequency. Benchmark values and a tiered response approach to exceedences have been added for consistency with all other individual and general permits issued over the past year. Stormwater efflueru limits for discharges from asphalt paving and roofing emulsions production areas: 40 CFR §443 imposes daily maximum and monthly average O&G and TSS limits on these discharges. Section 40 CFR §122.44(k)(3) grants N.C- authority to require BMPs in lieu of permit limits (Note NCG 16 for asphalt operations has no limits either).

Q: The old Aviation Fuel Terminal (AFT) site at Radio Island was undergoing remediation and did not have a point source discharge of stormwater at the time of the inspection in 2006. There were plans for the Port to build a drainage infrastructure; what is the status of this site? a. ANSWER: Just finished up remediation (excavation, etc.) No drainage structures have been built; still no point sources of stormwater/no additional permit requirements. 2. Q: Are there boat washing activities here? a. ANSWER: No, none that NCPA is aware of. 3. Q Has anything changed with Trumbull Asphalt? a. ANSWER: Only that the name has changed (Trumbull went bankrupt). Same operation. 4. Q Any other major changes since early 2006? a. ANSWER: The Port did tear down some buildings near the Trumbull plant and construct a new 180,000 square foot warehouse behind Berth ##9. This was part of a State Strormwater redevelopment project that was permitted by DWQ; infiltration basins were constructed around the perimeter of the building.

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 (5) 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 the potential of pollutant sources to contribute Pan 11 Pape 2 of 10 Permit No. NCSOOOI73 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, an oil 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. A f 4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeepi ProgranygA preventative maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of storm wate-ccontrol systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handlin F e and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. 5. Employee Training.

T Z, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific position(s) responsible=fS the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented and position assignments provided. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance that has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or Ieaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan 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 Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes have been made. Part II Page 3 of 10 Permit No, NC5000173 Facility Inspection Program. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year (January through June) and once during the second half (July through December), with at least 60-days separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s) making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be incorporated into the Storrn%N2ter Pollution Prevention Plan.

The permittee shall implement the Plan all monitoring, measurements, inspections and maintdnar provided to employees, including the log of thVarn..-A implement BMPs associated with the industrial_ activit it activities. Such documentation shall be kept ALsite for a available to the Director or the Director's autho '�zedtrepr request. ` The permittee shall document activities and training ata and of actions taken to IV nclucling vehicle maintenance ,eriod of five years and made entative immediately upon Part11 Page 4 of 10 Permit No. NCS000173 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 representative storm event. The required monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0. l inches of rainfall and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no. storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours. u Table I.

Part VI Page 5 of 5 Pages Subject: Re: Morehead City Port and PCS Phosphate fr'oin: Linda Willis <Linda.WiIII s@ncmail.net> Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2008 16:55:15 -0400 To: Bethany Georgoulias <Bethany.Georgoul1as@ncmai1.net> CC: ed.beck@ncmail.net Bethany, I conducted the site inspection, but unfortunately have not had time to respond in writing. I don't want to hold up the renewals. you had several questions as I recall regarding PCS and Morehead Sites. I suppose we can forgo the "formal written" Regional comments for the sake of time so that you don't have to miss getting it out for public notice on Wednesday. PCS NCS000520 I applaud you for attempting some benchmarks for TN. I believe TSS should be much lower, given the tidal effects will push this water into Calico Creek which is designated PNA waters, where limits for TSS should be 10 mg/I. I suppose it's impossible to put that figure in as a benchmark given the fact that they will have difficulty keeping TSS below the benchmark of 100 mg/L. Also, regarding TN, we can't get TN limits on Morehead's new BNR ww treatment facility, so I'm not sure how solid our stance may be on the TN benchmark for this general permit, but WiRO is in agreement. I discussed the operations at PCS with Todd Walton (NCPA) contact. He did not think the 40 CFR Part 401 applied to this situation since this facility does not manufacture, nor process the product. They simply store for later transportation. Morehead Port NCS000173: Description of activities on site: the Owens Corning site is now owned by SEM, don't ask me what that stands for. The site contacts told me they were in the process of getting the air permit transferred, as well as their NCG permit for boiler blowdown discharge. They told me the stormwater discharged to the street on the west side of their facility. It looks to me like we should have their stormwater adequately monitored. If their discharge goes towards drop inlet 911 A-1, we have it covered, however if stormwater from the inlet (west of asphalt site) goes to outfall 400 on the west side of the facility, or towards the east to drop drain 903 Al, it isn't being monitored, . For safety sake, it would be good to require monitoring at the inlet (near 402 drop drain) and 903 Al to capture site runoff from the asphalt plant. The Morehead City Terminals site and that NPDES individual permit assoc. with that site, are both gore. The discharge from that facility is now from large piles of gravel which can contribute TSS if a huge rain hits. The runoff from the gravel pile, when stirred up, almost looks like 1% milk. The runoff would go through the little settling basin before discharge, but it likely does not provide adequate Td. I don't think there is much the port can do to improve that discharge quality. The runoff would be monitored at outfall 603. That's it Bethany, I will be in the office on Thursday only. So issue at will. Linda Bethany Georgoulias wrote: Hi Linda, I just wanted to check in on the draft permits/staff report status of these two stormwater permits (renewal for the Port and the new permit for PCS). I have them scheduled to prepare for Public Notice on Wednesday, but if you haven't had a chance to review them and don't feel comfortable sending drafts out to Notice yet, I'll hold them.

Environmental Manager North Carolina State Ports Authority 2202 Burnett Boulevard Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 Subject: Draft NPDES Stormwater Permit Permit No. NCS000173 NC Ports Authority - Morehead City Terminal Carteret County Dear Mr. Bedsole: Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit: • Expanded pH, Oil and Grease (O&G), and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) monitoring requirement to all representative outfalls in Part 11, Sec. B. • Included outfall 911A1 as a representative outfalll for vehicle maintenance. (The Port already initiated analytical monitoring at this outfall during last permit term.) • Analytical monitoring has changed from annual to semi-annual (once in the spring and once in the fall). This change is based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater discharge sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. Please note that analytical monitoring must still be performed during a representative storm event (whereas qualitative does not). • Added sampling at representative outfalls 402 and 506A1 to capture runoff from asphalt plant operations (asphalt paving mixtures and blocks [SIC 29511 is an industrial activity subject to NPDES stormwater regulations). Note Total Phosphorus (TP) monitoring is included at 506A1 because phosphoric acid is used as a neutralization chemical. • Instead of "cut-off concentrations," the Division has incorporated benchmark values into the permit. These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for your facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). If any measurements exceed benchmark values, your facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its Best Management Practices (BMPs), review and/or update its SPPP, and document any efforts to address stormwater contamination (see Part II, Sections B and D). • Total Flow monitoring has been removed. The permit still requires Total Rainfall amount and Rainfall Event Duration be recorded for each sampling event. This change is also based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits. Please note that the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) site map must include drainage area for each outfall in acres and the percen e of each drainage area that is impervious (see Part H, Sec. A). CarDlim atul'all� North Carolina Division of Water Quality 1617 Mail Service CenterRaleigh, NC 27699-1617 Phone (919) 733-5083 Customer Service Internet: www_ncwatemualiiy.ore Location: 512 N.

Environmental Manager North Carolina State Ports Authority 2202 Burnett Boulevard Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 Subject Draft NPDES Stormwater Permit Permit No. NC5000173 NC Ports Authority - Morehead City Terminal Carteret County Dear Mr. Bedsole: Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit. • Expanded pH, Oil and Grease (O&G), and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) monitoring requirement to all representative outfails in Part 11, Sec. B. • Included outfall 911A1 as a representative outfall for vehicle maintenance. (The Port already initiated analytical monitoring at this outfall during last permit term.) • Analytical monitoring has changed from annual to semi-annual (once in the spring and once in the fall). This change is based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater discharge sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. Please note that analytical monitoring must still be performed during a representative storm event (whereas qualitative does not). • Added sampling at representative outfalls 402 and 506A1 to capture runoff from asphalt plant operations (asphalt paving mixtures and blocks [SIC 29511 is an industrial activity subject to NPDES stormwater regulations). Note Total Phosphorus (IT) monitoring is included at 506A1 because phosphoric acid is used as a neutralization chemical. • Instead of "cut-off concentrations," the Division has incorporated benchmark values into the permit. These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for your facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). If any measurements exceed benchmark values, your facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its Best Management Practices (BMPs), review and/or update its SPPP, and document any efforts to address stormwater contamination (see Part 11, Sections B and D). • Total Flow monitoring has been removed. The permit still requires Total Rainfall amount and Rainfall Event Duration be recorded for each sampling event. This change is also based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits. Please note that the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) site map must include drainage area for each outfall in acres and the percen e of each drainage area that is impervious (see Part 11, Sec. A). lim fl_y North Carolina Division of Water Quality 1617 Mail Service CenterRaleigh, NC 27699-1617 Phone (919) 733-5083 Customer Service Internet: www.ncwatemuality.org Location: 512 N.

When seeing where they were, I understood how the furthest outlet points were probably submerged at high tide periods, but we didn't get to really scope the sample points and actually see what Layton meant. -I was still unclear about how many oil/water separators there are at the Trumbull Asphalt facility (Layton drove us to the one near drop inlet 402, but two o/w seps are indicated on the' site map. I talked to plant contact Billy Parrot last month, and he said they report monthly to NCPA about releases from their tank containment area --which goes to the o/w separator shown on the site map near drop inlet 506 AlAl. I've got another call into Billy and will inquire.) -I'm still trying to de -mystify how Trumbull's NCG500354 permit fits in here (that permit covers non -contact cooling water and boiler blowdown wastewater discharges from 2 outfalls at the asphalt facility, but I don't know which ones). NCG50 imposes O&G limits and requires semi-annual sampling... depending on whether those discharges ultimately go to the outfalls I've proposed adding into the renewal stormwater permit to capture asphalt activity runoff (402 and 502 I think), I'm wondering if that stormwater will be c omingled with wastewater there and thus already covered by that wastewater permit. I know, confusing. (I don't even know how diligent Trumbull is about sampling under that ww permit). I've left a message with Billy and am awaiting return call. Let us know if the region is aware of compliance issues for that permit or has any comments, and I'll check into how we handle this kind of permitting situation on this end. -Any comments about whether the Region thinks additional representative outfalls should be added based on our visit. For instance, we talked about how vehicles track DAP out of PCS's storage facility. Checking the map, at least some of that is captured in the sampling already at 103 (and obviously, the Port already knew this was something that could be improved), but if there were any other areas you don't 'think are represented adequately in the draft permit, let me know. -Ken and I were a little disappointed that we didn't get the chance to get out. and walk around some of these spots on our tour to really investigate some of the outaall configurations, but it was difficult with a large group and the pace of the tour. It was a terrific tour for me nonetheless, but if you think there's any information we should request to fill in gaps from our visit, please include those comments. I think that's about it.

It came through the Stormwater Listserve, which is restricted to regulators for the most part. The Port's not really municipal, but it could have similar implications; they might be interested in what we work out with that permit. -BG -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [stormwaterl query re: MS4 operators Date: Wed, 09 Aug 2006 16:30:30 -04 00 From: Molloy.Jennifer@epamail.epa.gov Reply -To: Molloy. Jennifergepamail.epa.gov To: STORMWATER <stormwater@lists.epa.gov> we could use your help in identifying situations where entities who do not have ownership of the MS4 nor physical control over the MS4, i.e., maintenance of the pipes and channels, are still considered operators because they have authority for some aspect of the regulatory requirements. or conversely, situations where you may have determined that they were not operators even though they had some clear authority/resposibility for some portion of the regulatory requirements. I'm actually not being especially precise in articulating the question, because I don't want to presuppose or preempt any response that may be relevant. If you could let us know of your situation(s) with MS4s where the designation was not so straightforward, how you resolved the issue, including how you addressed the legal authority, i.e., federal, state; how permit coverage is structured; who is legally liable for fulfilling permit provisions; how non -permitted entities are held accountable, if relevant; or anything else that seems relevant. I'll follow up if necessary, so don't feel like you need to write a comprehensive essay; a few bullets should be adequate. BTW, if you've had any legal action relevant to this issue, let me know that too.

That was raised at the last renewal, but there weren't any point source discharges there at the time. You all might look at the Asphalt plant site to make sure there aren't any recommendations for discharges associated with that activity. I think there used to be a wood chip operation or storage there in the past — those activities come and go at these ports, so that would also be something to look into while you're there. Biggest issue at this site is the way the tides influence the sampling points and even compromise being able to get a representative sample (that's not mixed with seawater). I think anything you can talk with Todd about or observe while there that would help find a practical solution to their sampling protocol or sampling points would be the most helpful. That's all I can think of right now, but I'll send any other questions I come up with before the 12"'. Thanks again for checking in. Bethany BLihuiiV Georgoulicts.

An inspection of the site was done on November 18, 2004. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and associated material, including updates and monitoring reports, were made available by the environmental manager and were found to be in good order. The SWPP is well developed, describes the many activities on the site, and prescribes appropriate BMP controls to reduce impacts. The file includes reports of inspections done by a consultant to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of BMPs on the site. The evaluations appear to be quite thorough and objective. Earlier reports point out some inadequacies but more recent reports indicate adequate conditions . A review of the site was done. There are many varied activities taking place on the site by companies and government agencies that lease space at the port. Bulk and containerized cargo is received, stored and loaded on the site. PCS Phosphate operates a large bulk handling facility on the site including an auger conveyor and covered storage buildings. Owens Corning operates the Trumbull Asphalt facility which receives bulk asphalt and manufactures roofing products. Morehead City Terminals operates a facility for bulk handling of wood chips. The US Marine Corps operates a stevedoring and maintenance facility. Many other companies receive and store products on the port site. While appropriate BMPs and control strategies were generally being employed, there were some areas where improvements could be made. These will be addressed in the inspection report. It is recommended that the permit be reissued with conditions and requirements similar to those in the current permit. eb: ncs000173.124 cc: Wilmington Regional Files Central Files Ed Beck 3 { State of North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Michael F.
