Subject: CMT Permit NCS000530
Dear Mr. Lowther:
Thank you for providing us the valuable time to review the contents of the
subject stormwater permit. We have all worked diligently to develop a
stormwater program that is protective of water quality and allows Carolina
Marine Terminal to remain a vital economic force in Wilmington.
The Carolina Marine terminal is a vital source for commerce in the
Wilmington area; imports and exports vital to North Carolina's continued
economic development pass through this facility. The terminal is a vital link
for interstate and international commerce.
We have all reviewed the stormwater permit and provide these comments,
1. There is extensive analytical monitoring proposed. Item 1 in the June
2006 Draft Permit. Are these parameters based on any established
TMDL's for the Lower Cape Fear River? Management at CMT is willing
to monitor stormwater and would like for those monitoring data to
remain consistent with TMDL issues,
Venture IV Building 2. We remain concerned about the "benchmark" monitoring. The
Suite Soo operational parameters and materials shipped through.a marine
terminal are variable. Commercial contracts drive the business
1 730 Vorsily Dri-o aspects of this terminal. We believe the benchmarking can be used to
assist with development of management practices appropriate to the
Raloiflh, NC 27dp6 materials shipped through the facility and question the reliability of a
benchmark where parameter concentrations in excess of benchmark

values trigger additional assessment. A similar argument was
forwarded in section 6 that suggests when monitoring events find
parameters are below the benchmark additional monitoring is not
required. These conditions fail to recognize the ever changing nature
of the terminal operation.
3. Product loss from the terminal is profit loss from the terminal. The
management and staff at CMT take extraordinary measures to manage
and retain product for commercial purposes. Product is stored under
cover when appropriate, spills are contained and when possible the
captured product is returned to storage.
d. The letter states that the system discharges to impaired waters, there
is no TMDL or source listed for the impairment. Please provide
justification for the parameters listed
5. The permit (Section D) states that vehicle maintenance may trigger
special circumstances. Vehicle maintenance is accomplished on the
property, but it is accomplished in covered or protected areas
whenever possible, Will that activity trigger the special circumstances
listed in item
6. PIan amendments are required in item 7, SPPP. Will a plan
amendment be required whenever a material is received at CMT? This
is a tremendous burden on the local management staff at CMT. Could a
plan amendment be required when specific tonnage or volume limits
are approached?
7. Carolina Marine utilizes covered storage whenever possible. Materials
are received, conveyed to"a storage site and covered in as short a time
as possible, The management recognizes the importance of preserving
product. In addition, the corporate culture at CMT necessitates clean-
up as soon as a spill. occurs. Product is not left on site for any time. All
operators are educated in these corporate policies. Sweeping and
cleaning are continual and product that is recovered is returned to
storage when possible. The waste generated at the site is very limited.
8. CMT proposes to develop a continuing study to establish pollutant
levels in the stormwater discharge. The study will develop a plan for
data accumulation and presentation including development of "box -
and -whisker" plots, These data could be then utilized to establish the
benchmarks described in the draft permit, and the benchmarks would
be based on statistically sound data.

The discharge from the east pond does appear to accumulate
pollutants as it courses under River Road. COD levels in the discharge
have been higher than levels in the pond. There seem to be sources of
pollutants entering the stormwater system as a result of conveyance
under the road. There are reported pipelines in the road and road
right-of-way that may be influencing the COD levels in the discharge.
These sources must be identified, responsible parties identified, and
insults corrected to assure a sound stormwater system.
10. CMT proposes a site meeting to discuss the permit provisions. Staff at
CMT and the various consultants associated with the project proposes
a meeting on -site to assess conditions, assist with development of the
study plan, and establish a time -frame for the study. This
collaborative effort will result in a mutually acceptable and
.scientifically sound stormwater management plan.
Marine terminals by nature deal with a variety of materials. The management
at CMT supports sound practices to assure products are conserved and
transferred to commercial outlets, riot surface water outlets. Monitoring is
essential to the development of a long term plan. The CMT operation has
been on -going for many years; development of a study will only assure better
management of the system.
We do support the development of a stormwater permit program for this and
all marine terminal sites. We believe that this facility is vital to the economy
and
can support environmental quality. The D.O. sag reported in the Lower Cape
Fear River is probably attributable to many sources. CMT is committed to
develop an effective program addressing inputs from this site.
Please consider a meeting soon to address these issues and others that you
may have.

RE:: Carolina Marine Terminal
Andy,
Because concentrations of contaminants can change once the water is removed from sediment, I would
require the dried sediment to be tested for volatiles, semi-volatiles, the 14 hazardous substance list metals
per our guidelines (antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, nickel,
selenium, silver, thallium and zinc), iron and pesticides/herbicides. One composite sample should be taken for
every 100 cu. yds of material. This is based on the assumption that one of the proposed disposal options is
land farming the soil onsite. If you just want to take the material to a landfill, you would need to check with
the landfill on their testing requirements.
Additionally, the material would need to be retested for DRO because the levels reported from April 2009
were above the UST's action limit. If there are no other contaminants in the material, but DRO is still above
their action limit (40 mg/kg), you would need to coordinate with the UST Section (Michele Croat) for disposal
of the material.
Just let me know if you have any additional questions.

Ginny,
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me this morning. Per our telephone conversation, we are in the process of
removing sediment from the retention pond located at 3333 River Road.
In an effort to ensure we provide for proper and legal disposal of the sediments, we respectfully request information on
the testing requirements and parameters that need to be considered or documented prior to disposal.
We look forward to working together in resolving this matter.

lations: Based on the documents reviewed, the application information submitted on January 23, 2009

Special Issues Explanation:
• SIC code 44 captured by 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14), but excluded from NCG08 because there is not
vehicle maintenance but will be covered as a individual permit because of the pollutant potential of the
onsite materials. Our authority to cover this facility is cited under 40 CFR 122.26 (a)(v) by ref in 15A
NCAC 2H .0126.
• Adjoining property owner was responsible for an off -site release of paraxylene which contaminated
groundwater on CMT property.
• Changed Tier 2 to only include parameters that exceeded the benchmarks (Based on consultation with
Region).

• Mechanically transfer raw materials from ship or barge to covered conveyor to dome, covered pile, or
open pile storage. Stored materials are mechanically loaded from storage to truck or railcar for shipping to
customer.
• Industrial activity creating exposure to stormwater include:
- Open storage piles of chromite ore
- Covered storage piles of commercial/industrial grade salt f•.�.
- Covered storage pile of aggregate '
- Contained, hurricane proof storage facility for storage of urea and potassium chloride
- Unloading, transfer, and loading of raw materials listed above
- Operation of powered industrial equipment
• Two outfalls are on site. Outfall 001 drains from a wet detention pond located on the east side of the
highway. Outfall 002 drains from an existing wet detention pond to the Cape Fear River.

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: No other permits.
2. General Observations:
• Primary concern with the analytical results in the application are a COD value of 8340 mg/L at
Outfall 001.
Impairment: The Cape Fear River (18-(17)a) is on the 2006 303(d) for Standard violation: Low Dissolved
Oxygen and Low pH. The Basinwide Plan indicates turbidity is a stressor as well as low dissolved oxygen and
low pH. The Basinwide Plan states the Cape Fear River [18-(7I)a] from Toomers Creek to Snows Cut (5,616.7
acres) is Impaired for aquatic life because the dissolved oxygen standard was violated in 42.9, 37.1, 16.4, 29.5,
23.2 and 10.4 percent of samples collected at sites BA642, BA644, BA708, BA709, BA713 and BA716. The
dissolved oxygen standard for SC waters is 5 mg/1. The pH standard was also below the standard in 38.5, 37.1,
10.4, 20.5 and 19.6 percent of samples at the same sites. The low pH may be associated with swamp drainage
from the Black and Northeast Cape Fear Rivers. The segment of the Cape Fear River upstream of this area has
a supplemental classification of Sw that acknowledges that swamp streams may have lower dissolved oxygen
and pH. DWQ developed a TMDL to address the low dissolved oxygen in these segments. Segments 18-(71)a
and 18-77 will remain on the 303(d) list of Impaired waters replacing the Cape Fear (DEH Area) BIO listing.
4. Threatened and Endangered: The Natural Heritage virtual workroom indicates there are a couple species that
are federally endangered and a few that are state threatened or endangered in a two mile radius of the site. The
full list is included in the permit file.
Two Aquatic Species: Shortnose Sturgeon, W. Indian Manatee
5. Location: The receiving water is classified as SC.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: New Permit
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: Results submitted with the application included one sample for each outfall.
Outfall 001 has a significantly elevated COD value of 8340 mg/L. This source maybe surfacing groundwater
that is contaminated with paraxylene.
The 2008 Multi -Sector General permit in Sector Q Water Transportation recommends monitoring for Total
Aluminum, Total Iron, Total Lead and Total Zinc based on the SIC code of 449 t1 tl However, other parameters
will apply here based on types of materials stored.
The receiving stream is classified as SC. Therefore, Nikki Remington from the Classifications and Standards
Unit was contacted in order to see if the benchmarks need to be adjusted for a salt water environment.
Here are the recommended saltwater benchmarks (from Nikki Remington, DWQ, 2/18/09):
Iron: 4.5 mg/L (limited data)
Chromium: 1 mg/L
Xylene: 3.7 mg/L
Zinc: 95 ug/L
Aluminum: No saltwater data is available for aluminum
Lead: 220 ug/L
Oil and grease, COD, TSS and N and 1' wouldn't need to be modified for saltwater.
Recommended monitoring includes Oil & Grease, COD, TSS, TN, TKN, Ammonia, TP, Fe, Cr, Xylene, Zn,
A1, Pb and temperature.
The analytical parameters TN, TKN, and ammonia were added to the permit because the site stores similar
materials to PCS Phosphate (NCS000520). The staff report from March 19, 2008 for NCS000520 states the
DWQ Planning Section found there is not an appropriate benchmark for ammonia for saline waters at the time
Page 4 of 8

NCS000530
(toxicity highly variable depending on pH and temperature; Final Acute Value (FAV) can change significantly
based on these conditions). Planning staff recommend monitoring only for ammonia, along with pH and
temperature, to assess toxicity potential after more data collected (C. Brower, 3/11/08). Because ammonia is a
component of TKN, a TKN benchmark will not be included either. The draft permit keeps the 30 mg/1 TN
benchmarks to serve as trigger for investigating potential problems of excessive nitrogen. See explanation of
what TN measures:
TN = TKN + (nitrate + nitrite); TKN = ammonia + organic nitrogen. Measuring TN and TKN will provide
information about nitrate/nitrite levels. Also, measuring ammonia will indicate how much of TKN is organic.
Cr was included in the analytical monitoring because of the chromite ore storage onsite.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: None provided in application.

Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Adding parameters Oil & Grease, COD, TSS, TN, TKN, Ammonia, P, Fe, Cr, Xylene, Zn, Al, Pb, pH and
temperature.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part 11
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 included to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping,
and/or install stormwater 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 parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.

RE: Application for Individual Stormwater Discharge Permit
Dear Mr. Bennett:
Enclosed are three copies of an application for a permit to discharge stormwater from our facility
located at 3330 River Road, Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina. A check for
$860.00 made out to NCDENR - Stormwater Permitting Section is enclosed for the application fee
and first year permit fee.
Our plant transfers, stores, and ships raw materials such as urea, salt, potash, and chromite ore.
Materials are unloaded from barges on the Cape Fear River, stored on -site, and shipped to the
customer by truck or rail. Exposures to stormwater occur at the facility as a result of material transfer
activity at the site. No General Permit is available for our SIC Code 4491.

storage facility with two urea storage domes and four lay down storage areas. The site
plan package was revised and re -approved in October 2007 for the addition of two
cement storage domes and a third urea dome. The present site plan application is to
add two new potash domes and shows the reconfiguration of one of the lay down
storage areas.
The site is operating under an air permit with a SIC code of 4491. Based on the 4491 III;'
code and die fact that the site does not produce any process waste water an NPDES
permit has not been deemed as a requirement. However, in reviewing the site plan
application the City of Wilmington has questioned the need for an NPDES storm water
permit and a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
The purpose of the site meeting is to review the utilization of the site and general site
operations to determine what type of storm water permit will be required. The three
options are:
• Exempt - based on a non -exposure approach
• . General Permit
• Individual Permit
The two cement domes that were approved in October 2007 will not be built for a while
(due to economy factors). The domes are located within a parcel that is being leased by
CMT to Ready Mixed Concrete (RMC).

accumulation. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Use
methods to minimize dust.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE LIMITS.
UREA:
No occupational exposure limits established.
VENTILATION: General or local exhaust ventilation and other forms of engineering controls are the
preferred means for controlling exposures. If ventilation cannot reduce airborne concentrations below
acceptable limits, appropriate respiratory protection should be used.
EYE PROTECTION: Wear splash resistant safety goggles with a faceshield. Provide an emergency
eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the immediate work area.
CLOTHING: Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
GLOVES: Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
PROTECTIVE MATERIAL TYPES: cotton
RESPIRATOR: A NIOSH approved air -purifying respirator with an appropriate cartridge or canister
may be appropriate under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed
exposure limits. Appropriate respirator selection should be made by a qualified professional as part of a
comprehensive respiratory protection program as described in 29 CFR 1910.134. Protection provided by
air -purifying respirators is limited and should not be'used in atmospheres deficient in oxygen or where
airborne concentrations are immediately dangerous to life or health. Use a positive -pressure air -supplied
respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any
other circumstances where air -purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.

manufacturing or fueling operations.,In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwatermanagement plan shall document the feasibility of
diverting the stor�mwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment*equirements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section
313 of Title 111 of th ,Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in
order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table
or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary
containment areas shall be maintained. 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 closed 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 uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs

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
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 Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC) may 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 # a�� incorporated by reference into the
SPRP.
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Pro gram. A preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program shal1,be developed. The program shall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, industriailactivity areas (including material storage areas,
material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and

program shall establish schedules of inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping
activities of stormwater ccorittrof,5ysteths, as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present a patenlial for stormwater exposure or Stormwater pollution.
Inspection of material gandlinglareas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall
be incorporated into the�program. Timely compliance with the established schedules for
inspections, maintenance -and housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP.
5. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response
and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations

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''i0�onsecutive 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 pr ducci g a discharge begins again within the
next 10 hours.

topsoil or similar naturally -occurring surface materials that are not disturbed by mining operations.
Permittee
The owner or operator issued a permit pursuant to this individual permit.
Point Source Discharge of Stormwater `j
Any discernible, confined and discrete conveyance includirig, but not.specifically limited to, any pipe, ditch,
channel, tunnel, conduit, well, or discrete fissure from ihi��� tor^mwa�or may be discharged to waters
of the state.
Representative Storm Event
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 inch��has occur�rred A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive
hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for,21hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then
stops, a sample may be collecd'if a rain producirg,a t discharge begins again within the next 10 hours.
Representative Outfall Status�\��

measurement of flow at 20 minute intervals during the rainfall event.
32. 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. Thelclean Water Act, Section 303, establishes
the water quality standards and TMDL programs. /f � '\ /7

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: No other permits.
2. General Observations:
• Primary concern with the analytical results in the application are a COD value of 8340 mg/L at Outfall
001.
3. Impairment: The Cape Fear River (18-(17)a) is on the 2006 303(d) for Standard violation: Low Dissolved
Oxygen and Low pH. The Basinwide Plan indicates turbidity is a stressor as well as low dissolved oxygen and
low pH. The Basinwide Plan states the Cape Fear River [18-(7I)a] from Toomers Creek to Snows Cut (5,616.7
acres) is Impaired for aquatic life because the dissolved oxygen standard was violated in 42.9, 37.1, 16.4, 29.5,
23.2 and 10.4 percent of samples collected at sites BA642, BA644, BA708, BA709, BA713 and BA716. The
dissolved oxygen standard for SC waters is 5 mg/l. The pH standard was also below the standard in 38.5, 37.1,
10.4, 20.5 and 19.6 percent of samples at the same sites. The low pH may be associated with swamp drainage
from the Black and Northeast Cape Fear Rivers. The segment of the Cape Fear River upstream of this area has a
supplemental classification of Sw that acknowledges that swamp streams may have lower dissolved oxygen and
pH. DWQ developed a TMDL to address the low dissolved oxygen in these segments. Segments 18-(71)a and
18-77 will remain on the 303(d) list of Impaired waters replacing the Cape Fear (DEH Area) B 10 listing.
4. Threatened and Endangered: The Natural Heritage virtual workroom indicates there are a couple species that are
federally endangered and a few that are state threatened or endangered in a two mile radius of the site. The full
list is included in the permit file.
Two Aquatic Species: Shortnose Sturgeon, W. Indian Manatee
5. Location: The receiving water is classified as SC.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: New Permit
Analytical Monitoring Notes: Results submitted with the application included one sample for each outfall.
Outfall 001 has a significantly elevated COD value of 8340 mg/L. This source maybe surfacing groundwater
that is contaminated with paraxylene.
The 2008 Multi -Sector General permit in Sector Q Water Transportation recommends monitoring for Total
Aluminum, Total Iron, Total Lead and Total Zinc based on the SIC code of 4491. However, other parameters
will apply here based on types of materials stored.
The receiving stream is classified as SC. Therefore, Nikki Remington from the Classifications and Standards
Unit was contacted in order to see if the benchmarks need to be adjusted for a salt water environment.
Here are the recommended saltwater benchmarks:
Iron: 4.5 mg/L (limited data)
Chromium: 1 mg/L
Xylenc: 3.7 mg/L
Zinc: 95 ug/L
Aluminum: No saltwater data is available for aluminum
Lead: 220 ug/L
Oil and grease, COD, TSS and N and P wouldn't need to be modified for saltwater.
Recommended monitoring includes Oil & Grease, COD, TSS, TN, TKN, Ammonia, TP, Fe, Cr, Xylene, Zn, Al,
Pb and temperature.
The analytical parameters TN, TKN, and ammonia were added to the permit because the site stores similar
materials to PCS Phosphate (NCS000520). The staff report from March 19, 2008 for NCS000520 states the
DWQ Planning Section found there is not an appropriate benchmark for ammonia for saline waters at the time
Page 4of8

NCS000530
(toxicity highly variable depending on pH and temperature; Final Acute Value (FAV) can change significantly
based on these conditions). Planning staff recommend monitoring only for ammonia, along with pH and
temperature, to assess toxicity potential after more data collected (C. Brower, 3/11/08). Because ammonia is a
component of TKN, a TKN benchmark will not be included either. The draft permit keeps the 30 mg/l TN
benchmarks to serve as trigger for investigating potential problems of excessive nitrogen. See explanation of
what TN measures:
TN = TKN + (nitrate + nitrite); TKN = ammonia + organic nitrogen. Measuring TN and TKN will provide
information about nitrate/nitrite levels. Also, measuring ammonia will indicate how much of TKN is organic.
Cr was included in the analytical monitoring because of the chromite ore storage onsite.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes; None provided in application.

Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
I. Adding parameters Oil & Grease, COD, TSS, TN, TKN, Ammonia, P, Fe, Cr, Xylene, Zn, Al, Pb, pH and
temperature.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part H
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 included to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping,
and/or install storrnwater 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 pen -nit, 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 parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.

a) Classification: Class SC
b) River Basin and Subbasin No.: Cape Fear River Basin, 03-06-17
c) Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstreani uses: Fishing and boating
PART II - BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
This facility was previously owned by Atlantic Scrap and Diving. The site was a storage site for
marine recovery operations. The site has been converted to a bulk storage facility for various
materials brought in by barge. Off loading is accomplished with a claw to a hopper and relayed to
the storage areas via covered conveyor belt. Three storage domes are currently on site housing
Carbamidic Acid (Urea). Recent application with the City of Wilmington has been made to provide
two new potash domes and two new cement domes. There are four lay down storage areas
(uncovered, non contained). Currently the "lay down" storage areas are occupied by sodium chloride
(salt) and chrome ore (trivalent). In the near future, it is anticipated that cement will be stored on site
in domes.
PART III - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
1) Volume of estimated stormwater:
Total site area is approximately 28 acres on the east side of River Road (draining from the
outfall from a wet detention pond draining to a ditch along the south side of the merest tract
and 18.06 acres on the west side of River Road discharging through a stormwater pond
located on the northwest corner of the property.
2) What is the current permitted flow limit?
• No flow limits
3) Actual treatment capacity of the current facility?
• No information given on storage capacity of ponds. No data provided to determine TSS
removal. Analytical monitoring in the new permit should help identify the ability of the
ponds to reduce pollutants.
4) Possible toxic inipacts _to surface waters:
Urea:
■ Fish toxicity identified on MSDS sheet for urea to be 22,500 ug/L 96 hour(s) LC50
Mortality (Mozambique tilapia)
■ Invertebrate toxicity: >10 g/L 24 hour(s) EC50 (abundance) Water flea (Daphnia magna)
■ Other toxicity: 1 gm/L 96 week(s) (Teratogenesis) Frog (Microhyla ornata)
5) SIC Code(s): 4491

PART IV- OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION
1. Special monitoring or limitations Lncluding toxicity.) requests: Proposed draft permit appears
sufficient -in identifying the potential pollutants of concern with appropriate benchmark cutoffs.
A benchmark for ammonia should be included.
PART V - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The Wilmington Regional Office requests a benchmark for ammonia nitrogen in the permit.
Permitting strategy exercised by the NPDES Permitting Unit has recently resulted in the issuance of
speculative limitations for ammonia in class SC waters as 1.0 and 3.0 (summer/winter) monthly
averages, due to low DO in this segment of the Lower Cape Fear River. The draft permit was
reviewed and the Region agrees with the requirements specified therein. The Wilmington Regional
Office recommends issuance of the permit in accordance with the Cape Fear River Basinwide
permitting strategy, provided no significant adverse public comments are received.
