Catawba County MOORESVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
Dear Mr. Feltovic:
Reference is made to your recent request for rescission of the subject NPDES General Permit.
On the request form you state manufacturing at the subject site ceased in 1997 and that no activities which
would require permit coverage are currently occurring at the site. In accordance with your request,
NPDES General Permit NCG030018 is rescinded, effective immediately.
Please be advised that this permit rescission is based wholly upon your statement that the
activities which would require general permit coverage at the site have ceased or been eliminated -
Division staff has not visited the site to obtain independent verification. Operating a treatment facility,
discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the State without a valid
NPDES permit will subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. Enforcement
action will be certain for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact,
continuing permit coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit
coverage, you should notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again
discharge to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would
inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Bob Sledge at [phone], extension
547 or the Water Quality staff in our Mooresville Regional Office at [phone].
Sincerely,
Alan W. Klimek, P.E.

Dear Mr. Bennett:

Attached to this letter is a Permit Coverage Rescission Request Form for the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Stormwater General Permit issued by the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality (DWQ), for the
General Electric Company (GE) Hickory, North Carolina facility (the Hickory site). As
described in this letter, GE is submitting a request to rescind the Stormwater General Permit as a
result of changes in operations at the Hickory site since the permit was issued. Based on these
changes, GE has determined that a Stormwater General Permit is not required.
GE terminated active manufacturing operations at the Hickory site in January 1997. As a
result, the manufacturing activity for which the Stormwater General Permit was issued (Metal
Fabrication, Stormwater General Permit NCG030000) no longer applies, and GE is requesting
rescission of the Stormwater General Permit. In addition, since there are no active operations or
materials present at the Hickory site that are potentially exposed to stormwater, no other
Stormwater General Permit is necessary to address the current site status.
Following receipt of a letter from the DWQ dated June 6, 2002, regarding the Stormwater
General Permit for the Hickory site (received by GE on June 11, 2002), GE contacted Mr. Mack

J
Mr. Bradley Bennett
June 18, 2002
Page 2
Wiggins of DWQ to discuss the specific conditions at the Site and presented the rationale
supporting the request to rescind the Stormwater General Permit. Mr. Wiggins concurred with
GE's determination that a renewal permit is not required, and indicated that the DWQ would
approve the request for rescinding the Stormwater General Permit and provide written
confirmation of the agency's approval t .
The Stormwater General Permit for the Hickory site expires on August 31, 2002.
Therefore, GE would appreciate DWQ's prompt issue of an approval letter providing written
confirmation of the agency's concurrence on rescinding the Stormwater General Permit.
GE appreciates the DWQ's assistance and attention to this matter. if you have any
questions, please contact me at the number shown above or Mr. Walt Cooper at the Hickory site
at [phone].

Dear Permittee:
This letter is to inform you that, as of the date of this letter, the Division of Water Quality has not received a
renewal request for the subject permit certificate of coverage. This is a violation of NCGS § 143.215.1 (c)(1) which
states "All applications shall be filed with the commission at least 180 days in advance of the date on which it is
desired to commence the discharge of wastes or the date on which an existing permit expires, as the case may be".
Any permittee that has not requested renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration or permittee that does not have a
permit after the expiration and has not requested renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration, will be subjected to
enforcement procedures as provided in NCGS § 143-215.6 and 33 USC 1251 et. seq.
In order to prevent continued, escalated action, including the assessment of civil penalties you must submit a
completed permit coverage renewal application to the attention of the "Stormwater and General Permits Unit" at
the letterhead address within ten (10) days of your receipt of this letter (renewal application enclosed). If the
subject discharge has been terminated, please complete the enclosed rescission request form. Mailing instructions
are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the rescission process has been completed.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this situation. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please

Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG030000. This permit expires
L-
on August 31, 2002. The Division staff is currently in the process of rewriting this permit and is scheduled to have
the permit reissued by late summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for
continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in
advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find a General Permit Coverage Renewal
Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by March 4, 2002 in order to assure continued
coverage under the general permit.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility
without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and
could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
Please note that recent federal legislation has extended the "no exposure exclusion" to all operators of industrial
facilities in any of the I I categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except
construction activities). If you feel your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facilty industrial
materials and operations are not exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion. For additional
information contact the Central Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater & General
Permits Unit Web Site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/stormwater.html
If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
Rescission Request Form. Mailing instructions are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the
rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit renewal procedures please contact Mike Parker of the Mooresville

Catawba County
JUG! 2 2 2004
Reference is made to your May 12, 2004 request for rescission of the subject NPDES General Permit.
Your request states the facility has been closed and therefore the site no longer requires coverage under the
general permit. In accordance with your request, NPDES General Permit NCG030269 is rescinded,
effective immediately.
Please be advised that this permit rescission is based wholly upon your statement that the activities which
would require general permit coverage at the site have ceased or been eliminated. Division staff has not
visited the site to obtain independent verification. Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater
or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the State without a valid NPDES permit will
subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. Enforcement action will be
certain for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit
coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify
this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface
waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES pernvt.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform
the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Bob Sledge at [phone]. extension 547 or
the Water Quality staff in our Mooresville Regional Office at [phone].

Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG030482
Commscope Inc
Catawba County
On Rescission requested, the Division of Water Quality received your request to rescind your coverage
under Certificate of Coverage Number NCG030482. In accordance with your request, Certificate of
Coverage Number NCG030482 is rescinded effective immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to
waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit will subject the responsible party to a
civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. It is the intention of DWQ that enforcement proceedings will
occur for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit
coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should
notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's
surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform
the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Brian Lowther at [phone], or the Water
Quality staff in our Mooresville Regional Office at NPDES SW.

Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG030000. This permit expires
on August 31, 2002. The Division staff is currently in the process of rewriting this permit and is scheduled to have
the permit reissued by late summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for
continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in
advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find a General Permit Coverage Renewal
Application Form- The application must be completed and returned by March 4, 2002 in order to assure continued
coverage under the general permit.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility
without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and
could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
Please note that recent federal legislation has -extended the "no exposure exclusion" to all operators of industrial
facilities in any of the I I categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except
construction activities). If you feel your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facility industrial
materials and operations are not exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion, For additional
information contact the Central Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater & General
Permits Unit Web Site at http://h2o.enr.state-nc.us/su/stormwater.htmi
If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
Rescission Request Form. Mailing instructions are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the
rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit renewal procedures please contact Mike Parker of the Mooresville
Regional Office at 704-663-1699 or Bill Mills of the Central Office Stormwater Unit at [phone], ext. 548

Dear Mr. Street:
Reference is made to your June 11. 2004 request for rescission of the subject NPDES General Permit.
Your request states the facility is not operating and will be closed on June 30, 2004, and therefore the site
no longer requires coverage under the general permit. In accordance With your request, NPDES General
Permit NCG030485 is rescinded, effective immediately.
Please be advised that this permit rescission is based wholly upon your statement that the activities which
would require general permit coverage at the site have ceased or been eliminated. Division staff has not
visited the site to obtain independent verification. Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater
or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the State without a valid NPDES permit will
subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. Enforcement action will be
certain for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit
coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify
this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface
waters. you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform
the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Bob Sledge at [phone], extension 547 or -

'RE: NCG030650 Commscope, Inc.
Zahid,
I met with Kristen Yost at Commscope this afternoon. We went around the site and only have a couple of items which
need further follow-up. Commscope has dosed their facility in Illinois and is moving equipment to this facility. They
need to store extra fiber and fiber storage rolls on site. These will be exposed to stormwater, hence the need to change
their permit from a No Exposure Certification back to NCG030000.
1. There is a 20,000 gallon propane tank located at the North Plant. This tank is still in operation. it was unknown at
the time of this site visit if the tank was a single wall or double wall tank. There is no secondary containment around the
tank. Ms. Yost will confirm with the propane provider as to the construction of the tank and get back with us.
2. There is a 20,000 gallon propane tank located at the South Plant. This tank has been decommissioned, cleaned, and
all hoses and pipes removed. However, where the piping came out of the top of the tank is open to the elements. Again,
the construction of this tank is unknown as to being single or double walled and there is no secondary
containment. Commscope has not decided whether they are going to keep the tank on site or not.
3. Just for clarification purposes, there is an offsite drainage feature below the South Plant (just beyond the paved road)
that brings in stormwater flow from a wooded area. This ties in with the stormwater system which discharges at SDO-
003.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Mr. Bennett:
Enclosed please find one original of the NOI for the subject facility_
Prior to 2009, this facility was operating under NPDES General Permit NCG030112. In 2009,
this facility applied for and obtained the No Exposure exemption NCGNE0501.
Subsequent changes at the facility have resulted in exposure of industrial activity requiring the
re -activation of General Permit NCG030000 coverage. We are not aware of your policy of re-
issuing an existing facility its previous certificate -of -coverage number. It would be more
convenient if this facility kept its previous COC number, but we'll leave that decision to you.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call us.
