History:
• August 31, 1994: Date permit was first issued to C T Specialties Corporation. No analytical monitoring was
required.
• September 24, 1999: Date permit re -issued to C.T. Specialty Properties, LLC. No analytical monitoring was
required except for if there was vehicle maintenance.
• June 16, 2006: Date permit re -issued to C.T. Specialty Properties, LLC. Analytical monitoring was required
for COD and pH on a semi-annual schedule.
• 2006: Nekekim Corp. is processing ore as "CT Specialty Properties". Process uses methanol and crushed ore
"dirt" for mineral extraction.
• July 6, 2006: Facility requested a modification to the existing permit in regard to lowering the pH
benchmark values.
• 2007: Nekekim Corp. moved operations to Nevada. Leland facility is idle for the majority of the year with
efforts being made to sell the plant site.
• 2008: Plant is mothballed in an idle state, with limited staff. The permits were maintained active while the
sale of the facility and property was negotiated.
• 2009: Permit transferred from CT Specialties to the new owner Glycotech, Inc. Equipment was slowly
restored to operating condition. At the end of the year the site made candle wax from soy bean oil for one
month.
• March 20, 2009: Transfer of ownership from CT Specialty Properties, LLC to Glycotech, Inc.
• May 11, 2009: Permit was reissued to new owner, Glycotech, Inc.
• 2010: Glycotech, Inc. continued to restore equipment and infrastructure. In the spring the site made a four
batch campaign converting algae powder to biodiesel. This algae to biodiesel utilized methanol and heptanc
processing solvents. Later in the summer the biodiesel was produced from algae. Three batches were also
made from a fermentation broth of sugar. In this process no processing solvents were used. In December a
process was set up to process corn meal with ethyl acetate solvent to extract corn oil. The majority of the
year the equipment was idle while we pursed new business opportunities.
October 29, 2010: Compliance inspection done by Linda Willis (WiRO)
• 2011: Glycotech will concentrate on making lubricants, biodiesel, and cosmetic products made from the
fermentation broth of sugar. The primary processing solvent will be Isopropanol.

Central Office Review Summary;
1. Owner's Other Permits: NPDES Permit NCO086819
2. General Observations:
3. Impairment: Alligator Branch is not on the 2010 303(d) list. Neither the facility nor the receiving streams are
mentioned in the basinwide plan recommendations.
4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom there are no federal endangered
aquatic species within two miles of the facility.
5. Location: C, Sw
6. Industrial_ Changes Since Previous Permit: Changes are outlined in the History above. Most notably the site is
owned by a new company that will now produce products made from the fermentation broth of sugar.
Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. All of the pH results submitted with the application are below the
acceptable range of 6-9 SU. One result for COD is over the current benchmark.
The 2008 EPA Multi -Sector General Permit recommends monitoring for Total Aluminum, Total Iron, and
Nitrate plus Nitrite Nitrogen for Subsector C2. Industrial Inorganic Chemicals. The reviewer does not
recommend monitoring for these parameters because none of them are potential pollutants for this site.
Reviewer recommends maintaining monitoring for pH and COD.
Perm itee requested the benchmarks to be removed from the permit based on a letter sent July 6, 2006. No
response was found in the file but that benchmarks were not removed from the last permit. However, the
previous permit did not include the tiers therefore the reviewer feels that the request should be reevaluated. Data
was resubmitted from a sampling plan that Linda Willis recommended the site to do in 2006. The plan took
samples are six sites: Downstream, Feeder Stream, Upstream, Outfall 002, Rain gauge, and Final Containment
Sumps. See file for plan and data. Thirteen samples were taken in 2006 that show the rainfall and stream pHs
are all less than 6. The reviewer recommends adding the footnote below that is in the template for individual
permits for power plants in order to address this issue.
Footnotes:
If pH values outside this range are recorded in sampled stormwater discharges, but ambient rainfall data indicate
precipitation pH levels are within + 0.1 standard units of the measured discharge values or lower, then the lower
threshold of this benchmark range does not apply. Readings from an on -site or local rain gauge (or local precipitation data)
must be documented to demonstrate background concentrations were below the benchmark pH range.
Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Some of the discharges are yellow to medium brown. All of the other information
provided shows little to no signs of stormwater pollutants. Observations were done on the scheduled semi-
annual timeframe

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
. Maintain parameters pH and COD as analytical monitoring requirements.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating - No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedallces of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stonmvater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier I and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
4. The penmittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
5. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The Flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Discussions with permittee: Alan Stout, 910-371-2234, 2I2411 1
What materials or equipment is stored outside? Most of the plant is outside. A sununmy of the site was
submitted.
2. The analytical monitoring shows low pH. Do you have any idea why this might be? What about why the last COD
sample was over the benchmark? Thev talked with Linda Willis front WiRO about this in 2004. .She stated that the
low pH was natural in this area and could be from it being a low bay area. A study was done based on Linda's
suggestion. The study shows the creek has a low pH too. For the COD. the permittee said that .site in the area had a
similar rise in COD because of a dry period before the .sample.
3. What is your SIC code? NAICS is 325199

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. The time
between this storm event and the previous storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches must be at least
72 hours. A single storm event may have a period of no precipitation of up to 10 hours. For example, if
it rains but stops before producing any collectable discharge, a sample may be collected if the next rain
producing a discharge begins within 10 hours.

NPDES Permit Number NCS000258
2006
Nekekim Corp. is processing ore as "CT Specialty Properties". Process uses methanol
and crushed ore "dirt" for minerals extraction.
2007
Nekekim Corp. moved operations to Nevada. CT Specialty Properties personnel are
traveling to Nevada to support operations there. Leland facility is idle majority of year
with efforts being made to sell the plant site.
2008
Plant is mothballed in an idle state, being maintained by skeleton crew, keeping permits
active while sale of facility and property is negotiated.
2009
The permit was transferred from CT Specialties Properties to the new owner Glycotech,
Inc. and the plant was slowly taken out of a mothballed state and the equipment restored
to. operating condition. At the end of the year we made candle wax from soy bean oil for
one month.
2010
Glycotech, Inc. continued to restore equipment and infrastructure to an operating
condition most of the year. In the spring we made a four batch campaign converting
algae powder to biodiesel. This algae to biodiesel utilized methanol and heptane
processing solvents. Later in the summer we made another two batches of biodiesel from
algae. We also made three batches of biodiesel from a fermentation broth of sugar. In
the sugar to biodiesel process no processing solvents were used. In December we set up
and began processing corn meal with ethyl acetate solvent to extract corn oil. The
majority of the year the equipment was idle while we pursed new business opportunities.
2011
Glycotech, Inc. will concentrate on making lubricants, biodiesel, and cosmetic products
made from the fermentation broth of sugar. The primary processing solvent will be
Isopropanol.

Secretary
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:
Analytical monitoring changes:
1. Analytical monitoring parameters; pH and COD have been included in this permit.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in
Part Il Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event.. If no discharge
occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow"
within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a
minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record
keeping, and/or install stormwaber Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the
sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at
any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within
two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. if during the term of this permit,
the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific
parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the
Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition_ of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute
monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples.
4. You are required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of
representative outfall status.
5. You are responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall
parameter is in this permit, however.)

7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical
and qualitative monitoring. Monitoring for TPH has replaced Oil & Grease. This requirement appears in
all Individual Stormwater permits, however it only applies to facilities that do vehicle maintenance. If the
facility begins vehicle maintenance during the permitted timeframe then the requirements shall apply.
Other permit ch_ tinges:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants
in each outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of
significant spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have
been inspected to ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is
provided in Part H Section A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part Il Section A.
More details regarding secondary containment axe provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part H
Section A. The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that
the outfalls do not contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified iri Part II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added. to this draft permit. If industrial
materials. and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR §M26(g), the
facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit
requirements. Additional information is provided in Part I Section A.
6. In addition to submitting two signed copies of DMRs to Central Files, a separate signed Annual Summary
DMR copy must be submitted to the local DWQ Regional Office by March 1 of each year.
Please submit any comments to me no Iater than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft.
Comments should be sent to the address listed at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are
received from the public or from you, this permit will likely be issued in about two months.

Subject: Glycotech staff report
Brian,
Starting with the facility activities: We don't know""what they will be next month. They are a campaign or toll
manufacturer. So, it could be anything. I note in their recent submittal that they advertise as able to work with
biocides, chlorinated and halogenated compounds, and phenolic compounds. Those are just the ones that I have some
suspicion would be potential risks. Some of the others are probably also risky (organometallics?) but I'm not sure,
having no previous exposure to them (Well, except for Hydrogenated vegetable oils — I've had lots of exposures to
those. Daily.)
Anyway, I'm good with COD as about the best we can do for anything organic, given that we don't know what it might
be.
As for pH, l agree, their past data does suggest that there:may be an exceptional circumstance at this facility wrt the
receiving water ability to accept a low pH flow withoutihaem.pH is cheap, so my inclination is to keep it in the permit.
They will now be entering a Tiered structure, so Linda will have a chance to work with them to see if this is a real water
quality issue, or if the special circumstances at this facility argue that it is not an issue. If we get to that point, I'd prefer
to keep pH in the permit, and to allow WIRO + SPU together to use a letter to excuse the facility from monthly
monitoring and from corrective actions under the Tier system for pH. Just a couple of questions on pH if we ever decide
to consider this course of action: I see that Envirochem is their analytical lab doing the COD analyses. Who's doing the
pH? On -site staff? Do we know if their procedures are rigorous/acceptable? Also, I note that two of the Alligator
Branch pH values carry the notation, 'No Flow', but they were taken during a rainfall event. What's up with that?
Other parameters: I'm partial to including TSS in rinany•permits, since that has been identified as our #1 pollutant in NC
waters — but I'm not sure in this case. Maybe ask Linda if she thinks we need to do TSS here?
I'll return the signed staff report momentarily.

not practical, the stormwater manage ument the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff awayeas o otential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Require d fords. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage of li ; storage in any amount of Section
313 of Title III of the-Supe en ents and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
water priority chemicals; sto . any amount of hazardous substances, in
order to prevent HIS contaminating stormwater runoff. A table
or summary of all stored materials and their associated secondary
containment are tained. If the secondary containment devices are
connected to st Ovate veyance systems, the connection shall be controlled
by manually ivated ves or other similar devices (which shall be secured
closed with a echanism), and any stormwater that accumulates in the
containment all be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall
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 years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute

selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually.
3. 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 the team) 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
Part 11 Page 2 of 10

Permit No. NCS000258
person shall he 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 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. The program shall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on-site.and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (incI ding material storage areas,
material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas o ng and unloading areas, and
haul roads), all drainage features and structure ng st ctural BMPs. The
program shall establish schedules of inspecti nt d housekeeping
activities of stormwater control systems, as w facilit quipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present a potential for st exposure or stormwater pollution.
Inspection of material handling areas and c ng schedules of these areas shall
be incorporated into the program. Tim c e with the established schedules for
inspections, maintenance, and house ps be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP.
5. Employee Training. Trai -g ro shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual b ci personnel with responsibilities for: spill response
and cleanup, preventat' a main ce activities; and for any of the facility's operations
that have the potenti o cont 'nate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team)
responsible for impl ' e training shall be identified, and their annual training
shall be documented signature of each employee trained.
6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific
position(s) responsible for 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 which has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of 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 written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been
evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. Each annual update shall
include a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the BMPs listed in the BMP
Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan. _
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
Part 11 Page 3 of 10

Permit No. NCS000258
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.
8. 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 (July to December), with,at least 60 days separating inspection

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.everit is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall. The time
between this storm event and the previous storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches must be at least
72 hours..A single storm event may have a period. of no precipitation of up to, 10 hours. ,For example, if
it rains but stops before producing any, collectable, discharge, a sample may collected if the next rain
producing a discharge begins within 10 hours.

Site History
The Glycotech facility was originally built by Salisbury Laboratories to manufacture
veterinary products and dye intermediates. Chemical production began in 1975
Proctor Chemical Co. (owned by National Starch) purchased the facility in 1978 and
changed the name to Leland Chemical Company. The company continued to produce
dye intermediates, as well as vitamin and sunscreen ingredients. In 1982, the name
changed to National Starch and Chemicals Company. The site was subsequently sold to
Akzo, who continued to manufacture products for National Starch.
Pressure Chemical and a partner purchased the plant in 1983 and operated it as CT
Specialties Corporation, gradually replacing the personal care ingredients manufactured
with custom chemical manufacturing.
In 2001, Pressure Chemical purchased the partner's interest and became the sole
owner of the facility. Pressure continued to emphasize its custom manufacturing
business, adding new projects to the base business of scaling processes up from the
Pittsburgh operation (extractions, hydroformylations, hydrogenations, methylations,
polymerizations and sulfonations).
In 2004, Pressure Chemical clean -closed the site and ceased operations. In 2005, the
site was leased to a Pressure customer and was reopened as CT Specialty Properties,
LLC. The customer operated one process at the facility until late in 2006.
In 2008, Glycotech, Inc. purchased this facility and is now seeking new business.

A compliance evaluation inspection was conducted at the, Glycotech, Inc. facility in Brunswick County on October
28, 2010. Thank you for your assistance during the inspection process. The laboratory tour was educational. I
appreciate any opportunity to learn about the industries in our region. Attached is a copy of the compliance
inspection report. The site is in significant compliance with the requirements of the NPDES Permit NCS000258.
While two deficiencies were found, it is apparent that the implementation of your stormwater pollution prevention
plan has been very affective. The good housekeeping efforts that are being exercised to maintain a clean
manufacturing facility are evident. Please continue the excellent stewardship.
Should you have any questions concerning this correspondence or the comments in the inspection report, please

Inspection Summary:
While two deficiencies were found with the SWP3, the facility is in significant compliance with the requirements specified
by the NPDES permit. The plan is being implemented. House keeping at this site is excellent. The receiving waters were
inspected downstream at the rail road crossing. There were no signs of pollutants (foam, sheen, turbidity, etc.) directly
downstream of their stormwater discharges. The Division appreciates the good stewardship and all the efforts that have
gone into maintaining a clean manufacturing facility.

Summary of Industrial Site Changes in Activity
2011 Stormwater Permit- Application
NPDES Permit Number NCS000258
2006
Nekekim Corp. is processing ore as "CT Specialty Properties". Process uses methanol
and crushed ore "dirt" for minerals extraction.
2007
Nekekim Corp. moved operations to Nevada. CT Specialty Properties personnel are
traveling to Nevada to support operations there. Leland facility is idle majority of year
with efforts being made to sell the plant site.
2008
Plant is mothballed in an idle state, being maintained by skeleton crew, keeping permits
active while sale of facility and property is negotiated.
2009
The permit was transferred from CT Specialties Properties to the new owner Glycotech,
Inc. and the plant was slowly taken out of a mothballed state and the equipment restored
to operating condition. At the end of the year we made candle wax from soy bean oil for
one month.
2010
Glycotech, Inc. continued to restore equipment and infrastructure to an operating
condition most of the year. In the spring we made a four batch campaign converting
algae powder to biodiesel. This algae to biodiesel utilized methanol and heptane
processing solvents. Later in the summer we made another two batches of biodiesel from
algae. We also made three batches of biodiesel from a fermentation broth of sugar. In
the sugar to biodiesel process no processing solvents were used. In December we set up
and began processing corn meal with ethyl acetate solvent to extract corn oil. The
majority of the year the equipment was idle while we pursed new business opportunities.
2011
Glycotech, Inc, will concentrate on making lubricants, biodiesel, and cosmetic products
made from the fermentation broth of sugar. The primary processing solvent will be
Isopropanol.

SPCC and SWP3 plans for CT Specialty Properties
Sp.Q.tco�a.o
Subject: SPCC and SWP3 plans for CT Specialty Properties
From: "Gary Wooten" <[e-mail]>
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2006 18:54:38 -0500
To: <[e-mail]>
CC: "Jimmy McLawhorn" <[e-mail]>, "Gary Wooten"
<[e-mail]>
Ms. Willis
I would very much like to thank you for the information you sh ed with us during
your plant visit today. I
have enclosed a copy of the e-version of our revised 2005 SPCC Plan as you
requested. It is spread over
several documents, but should contain the information you need. The maps are not in
our e-files, but I will
be glad to send you a hard copy if you need one. I have also included an e-copy of
our revised 2005 SWP3.
The SWP3 spells out in detail many of the items we discussed during our site tour,
and I think it will be
beneficial in understanding the methodology and reasoning behind why we have our
stormwater control
system set up the way we do. I would also like to respectfully mention 3 items for
your consideration as
you make recommendations for our new permit:
1) The preventative measures we have taken in sending stormwater collected in
several remote diked areas
to one common point before inspection and discharge gives us a much higher degree
of control, since all water
is inspected at the source, pumped to the central collection point, and reinspected
before being discharged.
If using the old wastewater sump as the collectiion point poses a compliance issue,
we can send the water
to the "swim pool" instead. Another option is to just inspect once at each source,
and pump each source
directly to the ground, (as we discussed about Corning today). We are very
comfortable with our ability to
comply using the current set-up, and feel that inspecting twice is twice as
effective at preventing pollution as
inspecting once. I am aware that this not what "other folks do", and that it is
certainly better to have DWQ address
a potential issue now, rather than later in a Non-compliance context. Please help
us determine what section of
40 CFR 112 we are not compliant with and what has to be done to be compliant.
2) The issue of HOW to identify possible methanol contamination in the stormwater
before discharge is one we
realize will also have to be addressed, as you stated. It seems reasonable (to me)
that since we now will be
required to do COD analysis at the outfall 2X per year, then just perform COD
analysis before sending stormwater
to the ground. This concept would of course require the continued use of a
secondary holding area, since OSHA
would not approve of operators sloshing thru standing water to run the process

methanol in the stormwater, since
methanal vapors will still flash in low concentrations??? or could retain samples

of each time we pump stormwater
be run after stormwater is pumped to confirm compliance, since spills would be
identified and dealt with by operators
who are constantly in the diked area while a batch is running -like we discussed
today???)
3) Not having a wastewater pretreatment plant on site to handle potential methanol
spills is not an obstacle to
compliance from an operations standpoint, because we have much storage capacity in
unused tanks that can easily,
safely, and in a regulatory compliant manner be put into service as temporary
storage in the event of a spill,
until contracted off site disposal could be arranged. (It seems unreasonable to be
required to have a permitted
WWPT simply to handle a potential spill, when permitted spill response &
remediation contractors are on retainer
for our facility). Although it would be handy to'just send a spill to WWPT, other
PLAN B alternatives are bound
to be possible. In my mind the real issue is to first determine if the stormwater
has unknowingly been comtaminated
with methanol, and then deal with spill response thru our emergency procedures we
already have in -place.
Again, please help us determine what section of 40 CFR 112 we are not in compliance
with and what has to be
done to be compliant.
Please feel free to revisit our site as needed to gather information or gain
clarification on any of these or other issues.
We are eager to gain a clear understanding on our compliance with 40 CFR 112. We
contracted URC Corp.
to review and assist in the revision of both our SWP3 and SPCC plans, and a site
visit was conducted as part of that
contract. We are trusting that we have a well thought out plan that meets the
intent as well as the letter of the regs.
If DWQ determines otherwise, then we certainly want to take advantage of a chance
to work together in a spirit of
cooperation to correct any flaws and achieve compliance!
Thank you again for your help and suggestions today, especially with our training
requirements. We look forward to
hearing from you soon, and we are available if you have any questions or need
further information.
Respectfully,
Gary Wooten

To whom it may concern:
C.T. Specialty Properties, LLC, under `draft" permit #NCS000258 that shall become
effective May 1, 2006, has performed the Spring qualitative monitoring of the designated
point source discharge Outfall 002. Under this permit, C.T. Specialty Properties is
required to perform storm water sampling and subsequent analytical testing.
Enclosed please find an original and a copy of the completed visual monitoring report
and the original and a copy of the analytical testing. Please note that the COD is within
the benchmark value but the pH was 5.8 versus the benchmark of 6 to 9. We can find
nothing within the facility that could influence the'low pH. However, we have been
aware for several years that the pH of rainwater is less than 6. We are currently recording
rainfall events and measuring the amount of rainfall and the pH for each. Additionally,
we have been in contact with our Wilmington Regional Office and spoke with
Mrs. Linda Willis regarding our pH reading. As a result, Mrs. Willis recommends that
we begin sampling and measuring pH at locations upstream and downstream of the
facilities 002 Outfall during random rain events. Mrs. Willis has committed to visit our
site once we have compiled sufficient pH information and offer input as to what other
actions we need to take.
If any questions or comments arise concerning this visual monitoring report, please do
not hesitate to contact me at [phone], ext 20.

Subject: Staff Review and Evaluation
NPDES Permit Renewal
NCS000256 ,C.T. Specialty Properties
On January 11, 2006 a site visit was conducted to review the SWP3 and
SPCC plans. Each area of potential concern for stormwater impact was
inspected (ie. areas where storage of chemicals or process areas exist). Both
plans were developed by a licensed professional engineer. Both plans
appear to be thorough. The SWP3 plan includes all the key permit
requirements with BMP's included. The site drainage plan requires updating
to show the following:
1.) The caustic/acid tanks were removed and are no longer on the site.
2.) The wastewater discharge basin is now called the "final containment
dike" which will be used as a holding basin for the inspection of
stormwater collected on site before discharge. In the past, stormwater
was routed from this basin to the wastewater treatment facility (located
at the southwest property boundary). Contaminated stormwater was
previously routed to the wastewater treatment system for pretreatment
prior to disposal to the County's sanitary sewer. The wastewater
treatment facility is no longer needed due to a change in the nature of
manufacturing at the facility. The pretreatment permit from Northeast
Brunswick WWTP has been rescinded.
3.) The 10,000 gallon bulk storage tank location has a wall in it that
separates the interior area where the sump from the processing area
can be pumped for holding. This holding basin is unofficially called the
"I-\
bh�\

r'IV
-
"containment basin adjacent to loading dock 2 The contents can then
be inspected ' before discharge.
4.) The processing plant area drains to a sump that can be pumped either
to the "containment basin adjacent to loading dock 2" or the "final
containment dike".
5.) The flammable storage building has been divided into 3 sections where
flammables, intermediate product and hazardous waste will be stored.
Each section drains to a common sump on the west side of the building
which can be pumped to the "final containment dike" or the "swimming
pool" for inspection before discharge.
6.) There is an elevated concrete pad with 2 silos to hold raw material
located across the access road (west) of the "old" flammable storage
building (see 5 above), which was not on the site drainage plan.
During the site visit, it was recommended that the site plan be updated to show
these changes. The site was in excellent condition from a housekeeping
standpoint. The facility will no longer produce specialty chemicals and
therefore have significantly reduced the number of chemicals they require as
raw materials and intermediates. A change in production will significantly
reduce both amount and types of hazardous waste that once was generated
on site. There are no production activities at this time, but production is
expected to start up within -the next couple of months. All holding basins,
equipment, storage pads, diked in areas appeared clean and free of any
chemical stains. The ground, gravel and concrete roads appeared to be free
of any chemical stains.
Based on the site visit, the regional office has no objections to the NPDES
Permit Number NCS000258 being reissued as proposed.

Central Office Review Summary:
This facility has required no monitoring in the past, so there was no recent analytical monitoring to
review. There are many acids and other caustic chemicals on site with the potential to pollute, so pH and
COD monitoring were added to give new baseline monitoring data. The changes that were noted to the
site were the removal of some caustic and acid rinse tanks, and the backfilling of the previous ditched

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 areaswhere elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of
diverting the-stormwater runoff away ;frorq areas of potential contamination.
b. Secondary Containment -Schedule. A4chedule to provide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage.of,Section 313 of Title III of the
Superfund Amendments and Reautfiorization 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 locking- mechanism] and any stormwater that. accumulates in the
containment area shall�be at a minimum visually observed for'color, foam, outfall
staining, visible sheens �and dry weather flow, prior to -release of the accumulated
stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be
uncontaininated.by'the rnaterial 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

Re: NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000258
C.T. Specialty Properties, LLC
Leland North Carolina; Brunswick County
Dear Ms. Lau,
As referenced in the telephone conversation initiated by Gary Wooten with you on June
28, 2006 and in response to our communication with Linda Willis, Surface Water
Protection Section on June 28, 2006; C.T. Specialty Properties, LLC is requesting that the
Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) modify our NPDES Stormwater Permit
NCS000258 specifically in regard to lowering the pH Benchmark Values. This request
is made in accordance with regulation 15A NCAC 02B.0211-Fresh Surface Water
Quality Standards for Class C Waters (3(g)) which states "...except that swamp
waters may have a pH as low as 4.3 if it is the result of natural conditions...".
Linda Willis has visited our plant site and recommended a sampling plan to document the
surface waters pH. The sampling was implemented on May 27, 2006 as rain events
occurred. The data, which is attached, indicates low pH values in the waters of Alligator
Branch as well as low pH values in the rainwater collected in our rain gauge. We believe
the low pH in both cases is naturally occurring (due to swampy terrain and acidic rainfall)
and the data shows that it is not associated with collection and discharge of stormwater in
secondary containment structures at the plant site.
Furthermore, the stormwater discharged from the plant site will consistently be outside
the current specified Benchmark Values (as verified by the rain water analysis) unless we
implement a treatment to the rainwater to raise the pH before it is discharged to the
approved stormwater outfall, or modify,_ the pH Benchmark Values in the current
Stormwater Permit.

(Gary Wooten's project notes, edited 6/30/06)
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
2/15/06.... Draft Stormwater Permit issued
"Significant changes," mentioned in cover letter.
4/22/06... Started collection of rain gauge data
Evaluating relationship,of acidic'r`ainWater & permit changes.
4/27/06...Conducted Spring Stormwater Sampling Outfall 002.
Outfall 002 Spring Report mailed to DWQ-Raleigh Tuesday 5-23-06.

Analysis: COD vas-88. New COD benchmark is 120mg/L max.
5/13/06... Phone call with Linda Willis
Discussed Spring Sampling results and low pH of rainwater
Linda suggested upstream/downstream sampling
5/19/06... Follow-up call with Linda Willis
**Linda called Gary back to discuss status of upstream and downstream feeder
sampling she had suggested. Gary informed her that the rain events had not been
sufficient to obtain flow in Alligator Branch, but that a 6-point sampling plan had
been formulated and potential sampling sites identified.
**Linda stated she would be vi§itirg;the plant site in late summer and that unless
we had specific new issues to dis,i�ss=we should follow thr ,u with our sampling
plan to document that our stormwater discharges are not affecting the water
quality in Alligator Branch. She will be looking at our data during the next site
visit. Evaluation of the data may require further sampling and possibly revision of
SWP3 Management Plan.
5/27/06...First rain event in 6-point sampling program
Implemented sampling program, recording data on spreadsheet
6/16/06...Final draft of Stormwater Permit issued, to be effective 7/1106

5/23/06... SIX POINT STORMWATER PH SAMPLING PLAN
A. Stormwater Monitoring Log
Our path forward is to record rain events: date, time, duration, and amount of rainfall.
For each event we will analyze and record the pH of reengage water, upstream flow pH,
Outfall 002 pH; and downstream feeder pH. Data will be collected in.attached
spreadsheet and stored in CTSP common e-folder as well as in the Stormwater Discharge
Logbook, and kept current in preparation for the late summer visit by DWQ.
B. Sampling Points
Following are the six sampling points and a brief description of each:
1. Sample Point A: Downstream- culvert where Harrelson road crosses Alligator
Branch (Picture is Attached)
** The downstream portion of Alligator Branch is a series of thickly vegetated low-lying
bay -like areas with a poorly defined `run' that lies on property on the north side of
US74/76 owned by Bobby Harrelson, (Landmark Corporation) and a second portion
owned by Raeford Trask. The property is currently in use as a hunting lease controlled by
Bobby Harrelson, and the access road is gated and locked. Gary is trying to obtain
permission to access the property. It is desirable to collect pH samples from Alligator
Branch at the road culvert where it under. Irrelson road as it flows toward
junction with Hood Creek.".''
2. Sample Point B: Feeder stream -north side of Alligator Branch, culvert where right
hand fork in Harrelson road crosses drainage before it flows into Alligator Branch. (this
drainage is isolated from our discharges and will serve as a comparison point to show if
acidity is common to the area or originating from CTSP stormwater discharges.
**This is the first, and possibly only accessible point to collect a sample from a feeder
flow downstream of Outfall 002 and where pH cannot be affected by Outfall 002. Based
on information from Jimmy Hollis, a previous Ieaser of the property, the only discernable
flow thru this section of Alligator Branch during the drier spring months is immediately
after a rain event. Currently (as of 5/23/06) there are small standing puddles of water and
areas of muddy ground affording no opportunity to obtain a representative sample.
3.Sample Point C: Upstream- Same ditch (Alligator Branch) where Outfall 002 is
located.
**The upstream sampling point will be on CTSP property at the culvert where Alligator
Branch crosses the road leading to the CTSP sprayfield. This is located upstream of
outfall 002 and is representative of the flow before any Stormwater discharged from
CTSP secondary containment devices or run off -from Drainage Areas 1 or 2 (shown on
SWP3 Site Drainage Plan) enters Alligator Branch: This area is the "headwaters" section
2

Page 3 of 4
of Alligator Branch resulting from another bay -like area draining the area immediately
south of the CTSP sprayf eld (which is not currently in use, out of service approximately
9 months to date. The most recent use:of the sprayfield was with the National Starch
groundwater remediation activities ..but that remediated water is now sent to Brunswick
County POTW instead of the spray -field.)
4.Outfall 002; (Shown on SWP3 Site Drainage Plan)
**Site of pH sampling, which does. not meet Benchmark Limits in Stormwater Permit.
5. Rain gauge (Located South side of Warehouse shown on SWP3 Site Drainage Plan)
** Measure pH and volume of rainwater to help determine if low pH of collected
stormwater is the product of a naturally occurring event(s) or as a result of
conditions at the plant site which lower pH of Stormwater while it is being
collected in CTSP secondary containment structures.
6. Final Containment Sumps (Shown on SWP3 Site Drainage Plan)
**Stormwater is collected in various containment structures and routed here for final
inspection before discharge. (pH checks are performed here per our SWP3 Best
Management Practices.)

REQUEST FOR REVISION OF PERMIT -Summary of events (thru 7/6/06)
6/26/06... Phone call with Linda Willis
Gary called Linda Willis on Monday 6/26/06 @ 15;00 and left message on her voice mail
stating that we had received the final version of our new Permit and that sampling results
to date indicate that we will not be able to meet the pH benchmarks of 6.0-9.0 as
specified in the new Permit, and we feel it is inappropriate to accept the Permit as written
because the benchmark pH range is not achievable. We have a 30-day window (until July
16) to petition Raleigh for any items we find, unacceptable in the Permit.
Linda returned Gary's call on Monday. 6/26/06; but Gary had left site.
6/28/06...Phone call with Linda Willis
Linda and Gary spoke again Wednesday, 6/28/06 and pH sampling was discussed. Linda
was informed that we desired to petition Raleigh to request a permit revision, given that
the data we have obtained to date suggests the low pH is not influenced by the plant
operation, but instead is a result of naturally occurring conditions (i.e. rainfall pH and
swamp water). She suggested we could request a Permit revision based on an exemption
for pH as low as 4.3 for swamp waters,'if the low pH is from natural conditions.

Page 4 of 4
(6/28/06 can't)
The upstream, feeder stream, and rain gauge sample data we have collected show this to
be true. Pictures and SWP3 narrative docurrient.the swamp conditions.
Linda also suggested that we cAll Aisha Lau"i`nIt e:Raleigh office to discuss an exact path
forward, but suggested we E-mail the spreadsheet and sampling diagram to Aisha as well
as a formal letter. Linda sent Aisha an e-mail outlining our situation, and provided Gary
with an explanation of Regulation 15A NCAC 02B.0211 "Fresh Surface Water
Quality Standards for Class C Waters (3(G))" that apply to our situation.
6/28/06... Phone Call with Aisha Lau
Gary called Aisha Lau [phone] ext 578 at 09:30 Wednesday, 6/28/06 and left
brief message on voicemail requesting a return call.
Aisha returned Gary's call same day and stated she had received Linda's e-mail outlining
our pH problems and Linda's suggestion for the path forward. Aisha requested we e-mail
our data to her, as well as prepare a formal requeston`'Company Letterhead being sure to
reference our Permit number. Gary asked about discharging stormwater in the interim
period, since the new permit is effective July 1, and Aisha stated that Linda had provided
e-mail documentation and recommended the permit modifications be made, based on an
exemption for swamp waters. Aisha estimated the total time required to evaluate and
process the requested permit modification will take one to two months.
6/29/06:
Collected full set of samples from Wednesdays rain &"vent.
6/30/06
Collected full set of samples from Thursday's rain event.
Entered final data in spreadsheet.

Subject: Staff Review and Evaluation
NPDES Permit Renewal
NCS000258 C.T. Specialty Properties
On January 11, 2006 a site visit was conducted to review the SWP3 and
SPCC plans. Each area -of potential concern for stormwater impact was
inspected (ie. areas where storage of chemicals or process areas exist). Both
plans were developed by a licensed professional engineer. - Both plans
appear to be thorough. The SWP3 plan includes all the key permit
requirements with BMP's included. The site drainage plan requires updating
to show the following:
1.) The caustic/acid tanks were removed and are no longer on the site.
2.) The wastewater discharge basin is now called the "final containment
dike" which will be used as a holding basin for the inspection of
stormwater collected on site before discharge. In the past, stormwater
was routed from this basin to the wastewater treatment facility (located
at the southwest property boundary). Contaminated stormwater was
previously routed to the wastewater treatment system for pretreatment
prior to disposal to the County's sanitary sewer. The wastewater
treatment facility is no longer needed due to a change in the nature of
manufacturing at the facility. The pretreatment permit from Northeast
Brunswick WWTP has been rescinded.
3.) The 10,000 gallon bulk storage tank location has a wall in it that
separates the interior area where the sump from the processing area
can be pumped for holding. This holding basin is unofficially called the

or - I.W.
"containment basin adjacent to loading dock 2". The contents can then
be inspected'before discharge.
4.) The processing plant area drains, to a sump that can be pumped either
to the "containment basin adjacent to loading dock 2" or the "final
containment dike".
5.) The flammable storage building has been divided into 3 sections where
flammables, intermediate product and hazardous waste will be stored.
Each section drains to a common sump on the -west side of the building
which can be pumped to the "final containment dike" or the "swimming
pool" for inspection before discharge.
6.) There is an elevated. concrete pad with 2 silos to hold raw material
located across the access road (west) of the "old" flammable storage
building (see 5 above), which was not on the site drainage plan.
During the site visit, it was recommended that the site plan be updated to show
these changes. The site was in excellent condition from. a housekeeping
standpoint. The facility will no longer produce specialty chemicals and
therefore have significantly reduced the number of chemicals they require as
raw materials and intermediates. A change in production will significantly
reduce both amount and types of hazardous waste that once was generated
on site. There are no production activities at this time, but production is
expected to start up within the next couple of months. All holding basins,
equipment, storage pads, diked in areas appeared clean and free of any
chemical stains. The ground, gravel and concrete roads appeared to be free
of any chemical stains.
Based on the site visit, the regional office has no objections to the NPDES
Permit Number NCS000258,being reissued as proposed.

NCS 00 58 CT SRecialty Propellieg Rermit renewal peer review notes
5/17/05
KBP
1. Aisha, the thing that jumps out at me from the 1999 permit renewal is the reported
presence of several acids, alcohols, and organic chemicals. I don't know the specific
environmental hazards associated with the chemicals, but it seems to me we should
be asking the permittee to monitor some of them. I would be concerned about the
permittee's report that the following materials are on site:
a. Acids - m-aminobenzoic, citric, ethylenediaminetetraacetic, methacrylic,
dodecylbenzenesulfonic, hydrochloric, hypophosphoric, methacrylic, methane
sulfonic, m- and p-nitrobenzoic, propionic, 98% and 93% sulfuric, acetic
anhydride, isethionic salt.
b. Strong bases and other'strong chemicals -- peroxide, ammonium hydroxide
(ammonia benchmarks would apply), KOH, CaOH, NaOH, NaOCI (pH
benchmarks would apply).
c. Organic chemicals - diethylene glycol, ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate,
phenol (5.3 mg/L benchmark), propanol, acetone,.benzyl chloride,
cyclohexane, ethanol, formaldehyde (1.7 mg/L benchmark), isopropyl alcohol,
methanol, MEK, methyl methacrylate, toluene (0.055 mg/L benchmark).
d. Heavy metals - nickel catalysts (0.261 mg/L benchmark), cobalt octoate
(.025 mg Co /L benchmark).
2. Again, I don't know the environmental hazards associated with these materials,
specifically. But I recognize acetone, toluene, MEK, nickel, NaOH, sulfuric and
hydrochloric acids as bad for fish. I think we need to get some guidance from
Bradley, from Connie Brower's replacement, or from J. Wynn on these chemicals.
3. That still leaves the question of what to monitor for once we have some .
understanding of the environmental significance of the on -site chemicals. Since this
facility appears to be a "campaign" manufacturer, I mean, it appears they can
produce lots of different stuff, and they do so for specific customer orders, it's
difficult to know what it makes sense to monitor for. We need some guidance.
4. You might want to consider adding to the qualitative monitoring section something
on evidence of erosion and downstream sedimentation, or on trash and debris.

I have attached a list of products we used to make and marked
them to indicate which ones we currently make and the ones that we
no longer make.
I am also enclosing a list of raw materials we currently use
that we did not previously use. The chemical reactions to make the
new products are similar to the chemistry we previously did.
We added one 1000 gallon reactor to the facility in 1998.
This is used for hydrogenations which is a type of reaction that
has always been done at this facility and it gives us added
capacity. In 1997 we installed a 100 cu. ft. rotary vacuum dryer
which give us added capacity and better emission controls. We have
put in city water and sewer services. Our waste treatment system,
that was used to treat aqueous waste before going to a spray field,
lias been converted to a pretreatment plant before discharging the
waste to the Brunswick County POTW. The spray field is now used
for treated ground water that is a remediation project that is
being done by National Starch and Chemical Company (the previous
owners of this site - C T Specialties purchased the site in
December 1993).
We have recently remodeled our offices, laboratories and
warehouse which includes a sprinkler system for fire protection.
If you have further questions, please call me.

Dear Mr. Miller:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater permit
NCS000258, 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 enclosed permit may differ from the draft permit that was previously sent. Based on a
review of the permit monitoring data received to date, the Division has revised the monitoring strategy for individual
stormwater permits. The measurement frequency has been changed and cut-off concentrations have been removed.
These changes will be implemented forall 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.
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 1SOB 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.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the
Division of Water Quality or permits required by the. Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or
any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Aisha Lau at telephone number 919/733-

Memo To: Permit File
From: Aisha Lau
Subject: Review of NCS000258 Stormwater Permit Renewal
C.T. Specialties Corp. was not required to perform any analytical monitoring during.their
fast term because they didn't even use 55 gallons of:rgotor oil each month. Since
nothing in their operations have changed to negatively impact their potential to contribute
to stormwater pollution no additional analytical monitoring requirements are required at
this time.
