Hi Lauren,
I asked the same question. It seems because the testing lab did not realize we needed pH. A little background history
on this. I just became CEO in January this year. I have been with the company 17 years. I was not involved in the water
testing before then, but I do know what happened when our environmental manager (who was also our HR
manager) passed in early 2015. We were using a testing facility then that collected the water and did the testing. We
switched, and someone internal started catching the water (with the proper instructions provided) and giving it to the
lab to test. Nobody told the lab we needed pH, so it was not measured regularly. We will definitely do it going forward,
every time.

Hi Darrell,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! I think I have one last question and then that will be it. Do you
know why a pH test sometimes is not done for the samples?
Sorry for giving you extra work!

Hi Lauren,
We talked to the person at the testing lab that does our testing. The detection limits for lead is .01 mg/I,
and the limit for silver is .001 mg/I
We can't pinpoint what would cause the BOD exceedances. He said it could be 1,000 different things.

Hi Darrell,
Thanks so much for sending this to me! I will put this email in the facility file for future
references. That way you won't be penalized for the missing 2015 record.
I have some follow up questions, do you know maybe know what could be causing the
BOD exceedances in the data? And do you happen to know what the detection limits
were for lead and silver at the lab you used?
Thanks,
Lauren

Hi Lauren,
Attached is the information you requested. The information from the first half of 2015
cannot be found. The person who was our environmental manager passed away in April
of 2015, and either the test did not get done or he filed it somewhere we can't find
it. The rest of the data is based on the reporting results done by the firm we use for
testing. Let me know if you need any other data not provided. Thank you for your help
in this matter.

Good morning Lauren,
We have begun compiling the spreadsheet and will have that
information to you early next week if that is OK.
As far as operational changes, there is nothing different from 2009.
Have a good day,

Hi Darrell,
Thank you for working on this for me. The spreadsheet
summarizes the monitoring parameters in your permit:
Total Suspended Solids, Biochemical Oxygen Demand,
Chemical Oxygen Demand, Lead, Silver, and pH. I have
attached an example of a spreadsheet another facility
provided. I have had facilities in the past that have
preferred to send copies of the monitoring data if they
could not create a spreadsheet, so that is also an
option.
i1
Operational changes would include examples like
changes in waste production, changes in waste storage,
using new/different chemicals, storing new chemicals
outside and not under a cover, vehicle maintenance on
the site, etc. If the facility is still producing the same
products, using the same materials, and following the
same procedures as in 2009, there would be nothing to
be reported.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
Thanks,
Lauren

Good afternoon,
We are working on getting the information you
requested below, and I have a couple questions so we
can make sure we get everything you need.
First, what data needs to be on the spreadsheet? We
have the monitoring data needed, I just wasn't sure
what the columns in the spreadsheet need to
contain. We will be glad to compile it into a
spreadsheet.
Second, what type of operational changes do you need
to know about? We will be glad to give you any
information on such changes.
Thank you for your help on this.
Darrell

Hi Tim,
Thank you for calling me back earlier. I
have looked through our paper file and
checked our database. The NCS000061
permit is categorized as "In Review,"
which means that we do not have it
officially recorded that a finalized
permit has been issued to you. The
most recent permit we have on file is
from 2009. Isaiah Reed has also
confirmed that he did not issue a
permit. I think you must be looking at
an inspection report. I can see in our
database that an inspection took place
on April 22, 2018.
I am working on issuing you a renewed
permit, as the facility's permit expired
in 2014. Jack DeBeve submitted a
renewal application in 2014. For
reference, I have attached the
stormwater permit the facility should
be operating under.
There is some information I am
required to ask you for to (1.) confirm
that the information I have is correct
and (2.) make sure the permit
adequality serves the needs of the
facility.
What I need from you:
• A spreadsheet summarizing
all of the monitoring data
that has been collected
5
since the effective date of
the current permit;
• A verification that the
information in the renewal
application is still is still
complete and correct; and
• An explanation of any
operational changes since
the renewal application was
submitted.
The following link will take you to an
online search box where you will be
able to enter your permit number and
review the facilities information to
make sure it is correct:

XPORT&EXPORT FMT=U2FPDF%3AO.
Information can be updated using the
links provided below, where applicable:
Owner Update:
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/SW-
Name-Change
Owner Affiliation (i.e., someone with
the company who is designated to
represent the company per signatory
requirements in the permit (e.g., CEO)
or another authorized representative):
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/SW-
Owner-Affiliation
Company of Facility Name:
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/SW-
Name-Change
What happens next:
• Once I have the above listed
information, I will verify the
"draft" permit information is
correct;
• You will receive the draft for a
30-day comment period. During
this time we will be able to
address any comments or
concerns you have about your
permit draft.
• During the same 30-day period,
the draft will be sent to an
6
Asheville Regional Office staff
member for review and the
permit draft will be sent for
Public Notice.
• Once all comments and
concerns are addressed, you
will be issued the final permit.
Feel free to contact me with any
questions as well.
Thanks,
Lauren
