Dear Mr. Bennett: .
On behalf of our client, ABB Alstom Power, AWT requests representative outfall status for
ABB's stormwater sampling at their Kings Mountain, North Carolina facility (Certificate of
Coverage No. NCG 030139). The facility currently has four point source stormwater discharge
outfalls (SDO) as presented on the enclosed site map as SDO #1 - #4. It is requested that SDO
#4 be used as the representative sampling point.
SDO #4 contains runoff from areas where there is shipping activity, materials storage, and other
activity that is representative of stormwater exposure to industrial activity at the ABB facility.
Please review the enclosed site map and notify AWT and ABB Alstom of your decision in
writing as soon as possible. Your cooperation and responsiveness are greatly appreciated. If you
have any questions or need addition information, please contact me at [phone], ext. 203.
