EnviroShield Roofing Services, LLC was contracted for the painting activities with regard to the roof and drains at the Pelton and Crane facility. Industrial Operations/City of Charlotte Stormwater Ordinance Review: Air Compressor_ Room (Wastewater Pre -Treatment Area) -- The air compressor room is located outside on the rear of the main building. This room is mostly enclosed and houses two air compressors_ The room is exposed to stormwater due to an opening in the roof. Two buckets were observed under one of the air compressors to catch leaking oil. Excessive absorbent material and standing product was observed on the concrete floor of the room. Dark staining was observed on the soil outside the air compressor room. Spilled oil has the potential to be discharged to the storm drainage system on site during a storm event, which could cause a violation of the NC Oil Pollution Act. The permittee must properly remove and dispose of the impacted soils, absorbent material, and standing product. The permittee must take steps to prevent the discharge of oil to the ground including repairing the leaking equipment and instituting routine maintenance and inspection of the area. These steps shall be incorporated into the Spill Prevention and Response Plan and the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program required by the permit. Air Compressor Room (Quality) — The air compressor room is located inside and is not exposed to stormwater. A water hose was observed connected to a water spigot with the other end outside the building. Facility personnel explained that the water hose is used to wash the filters on the air conditioning unit located on the roof. An air compressor was also located in the room and oil staining was observed around the base of the equipment. The permittee shall ensure proper containment and disposal of any wastewater (air conditioning washing) and conduct routine maintenance and inspection of the area as required by the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program in the permit.
