Attachments: Dike Water Test Results Pace Analytical 01-14-11 _pdf; Black Beauty MSDS.pdf
Ms, Allocco,
Per our conversation today, I am forwarding you a copy of the test results from Pace Laboratory on the water from our
dike area that was contaminated with Black Beauty, the abrasive material used to remove the exterior paint from the
bottom 2 feet of one of our storage tanks. Residual sludge of the abrasive material was packaged in (2) 55 gallon steel
drums and will be disposed of through our Transportation, Storage and Disposal facility. The dike area contained water
from the Christmas snow event and was pressure washed with potable water obtained from our on -site county water
supply, We have approximately 11,500 gallons of water currently being stored in a frac tank on -site that I would like to
obtain permission to discharge to our retention pond. As you can see from the test results, the water was determined to
be non -hazardous and the MSDS shows that the abrasive material is eco-friendly carbon which is also used in fish
aquarium filters. Please let me know if you require additional information. Thank you in advance.

THE OR I G INA L
BLACK BEAUTY®
FACT: Boiler slag is formed when extremely hot, molten coal ash is
quenched with cold water creating a vitrified amorphous, solid,
glassy matrix.
FACT: Boiler slag is a vitrified material which is a very durable and
environmentally stable form that permanently immobilizes its
chemical constituents into the glassy amorphous structure, even
when broken into tiny fragments during blasting.
FACT: BLACK BEAUTY® abrasives boiler slag has always passed
the TCLP testing as both a pre -blast and post blast material, and has
never exhibited any hazardous waste characteristics.
FACT: BLACK BEAUTY®'abrasives are an environmentally
safe and effective blasting abrasive.

SECTION V — HEALTH HAZARD DATA
EXPOSURE LIMITS: Refer to Section II which highlights the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL)_ This limit is
published and enforced by OSHA as a legal standard. Most PELs are expressed as eight hour average airborne
concentrations. The nuisance dust exposure standard should be followed if exceeded than the appropriate respiratory
protection equipment should be wom.
ACUTE and CHRONIC TOXICITY: Exposure to and contact from dust may irritate the respiratory system, eyes, or
skin. Coal slag is not listed on the NTP, IARC, or OSHA list of carcinogens. If ingested it may cause nausea and
vomiting.
FIRST AID:
1. Eye Contact — Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water or an ophthalmic saline solution.*
2. Skin Contact — Wash skin with soap and water if irritation occurs.'
3. Inhalation — Remove affected person(s) to fresh air source.*
4. Oral intake — Rinse mouth out with water.*
*Note: if symptoms persist, contact a physician or other medical personnel.
SECTION VI — CONTROL MEASURES
RESPIRATOR PROTECTION: If airborne concentrations exceed recommended exposure limits, a suitable
NIOSH/MSHA approved filter respirator should be worn. General ventilation or local exhaust is normally adequate to
control dust emissions, if not engineering controls should be utilized.
EYE: Safety glasses with side shields should be worn as minimum protection from impact. Dust goggles should be
worn when excessively dusty conditions are present or anticipated.
GENERAL: The use of hard hats and hard toe shoes is recommended. Gloves may be worn to protect from abrasion as
well as long sleeve shirts to minimize dermal exposure and potential skin irritation.

ADDENDUM
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program was established under the federal
Clean Water Act and then delegated to the Division of Water Quality for implementation in North Carolina. The
NPDES permitting program for stormwater discharges was established in 1990. Phase I focuses on site and
operations planning to reduce pollutant sources.
Through the NPDES permitting program industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are
required to obtain permit coverage under a general permit or an individual permit, depending upon the
facilities SIC code and the industrial activity occurring at the facility. There are currently 19 active general
stormwater permits in North Carolina. One condition that is applicable to both the general permits and
individual stormwater permits is the requirement to develop and implement site -specific comprehensive
stormwater pollution prevention plans (SPPP). These plans are required to include a comprehensive
evaluation of the site and operations to reduce pollutant sources and prevent pollutant discharge in stormwater
runoff,
Copies of the genera! permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following webpage:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/npdessw#General Permits NPDES Permit text, technical bulletins,
discharge monitoring forms, a Notice of Intent [which is the application of for coverage under a NPDES
General Stormwater Permit], and the Representative Outfall Status application can be found on this website.
The following items are a subset of permit requirements and are listed to assist you and help bring your
attention to certain permitting.issues, process, and condition requirements of your permit. Please see the
abovementioned website to obtain a copy of the permit so you may fully comply with the conditions therein.
Failure to properly comply with conditions of the permit, like those bulleted below, constitutes permit
violations and is subject to civil penalty assessment of up to $25,000.00 per day.
• Industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are required to obtain permit coverage
under a general NPDES stormwater permit or an individual NPDES stormwater permit
• All persons desiring to have facilities covered by a General Permit must register with the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) by the filing of a Notice of Intent (NOI) and Applicable Fees.
• This Notice of Intent (NOI) must be submitted and a Certificate of Coverage issued prior to any
discharge of stormwater associated with the industrial activity, process wastewater, and/or mine
dewatering.
• Once the Notice of Intent is received, DWQ will review and determine whether a Certificate of Coverage
(COC) may be issued. If this Certificate of Coverage is issued the facility is covered by the General
Permit. That is, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater, process wastewater, and/or mine
dewatering (pursuant to the type of General Permit) until the permit expires or is modified or revoked.
• Any other point -source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an allowable
non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization, or approval.
• There are currently 19 active general permits. Permit conditions vary accordingly; however, most of the
permits have the following condition requirements (you must read your entire permit to ensure full
compliance):
o Development and compliance with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
o Collection, reporting, and recording of Analytical Monitoring

continuous monitoring instrumentation, and copies of all reports required by this general permit
for a period of at least 5 years from the date of the sample measurement, report, or application.
o Expiration — The permittee is not authorized to discharge after the expiration date of the general
permit. In order to receive automatic authorization to discharge beyond the expiration date, the
permittee shall submit forms and fees as are required by the agency authorized to issue permits
no later than 180-days prior to expiration date, Any permittee that has not requested renewal at
least 180 days prior to expiration, or any permittee that does not have a permit after the
expiration and has not requested renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration, will be subject to
enforcement. Failure to renew your permit is a violation.
o Transfer — The Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued pursuant to this general permit is not
transferable to any person expect after notice to and approval by the Director of the Division of
Water Quality. The Director may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the
Certificate of Coverage to change the name and incorporate such other requirements as may be
necessary under the Clean Water Act. The permit is NOT transferable.
o Name Change, Closure, or Facility Ownership change — The permittee is required to notify the
Division in writing in the event the permitted facility is sold or closed. The Division of Water
Quality views changes of name or ownership as a modification that requires the Director's
approval and reissuance of the permit. Name and ownership changes required you to complete
a Name/Ownership Change Form from the Division and mail it back to the Division of Water
Quality along with all appropriate information.
o Proper Operation and Maintenance is a requirement of the permit.

Inspection Summary:
Compliance History:
This is the first inspection of NCG050218. No other spills of water quality incidents are on record for the facility.
Stormwater Qutfalls (cont'd):
Most of the stormwater at the site is discharged into the on -site pond- The pond also serves as a supply of fire
suppression water. The pond does not appear to be dammed and flows over a riprap channel before entering an
unnamed tributary (UT) to Caldwell Station Creek; a small tributary to McDowell Creek. The receiving stream (flowing
water was noted) for the pond's discharge was heavily incised (deeply cut) and appeared to be working its way toward the
pond.
A call was made to Mecklenburg County personnel to determine if this stream segment was reviewed during the
development of the stormwater management plan for McDowell Creek. The County shows the UT terminating before it
reaches the Foamex Innovations (FXI) pond. Mr. David Kroening with Mecklenburg County ((704) 336-54481 stated that
the County would conduct a stream assessment to determine if there is still active incision in the UT, which may pose a
threat to the FXI pond. He stated Ms. Blake with FXI would be contacted and site access would be coordinated with Ms.
Blake since part of the UT resides on FXI property.
A copy of a 1970 USGS map has been included with this inspection report to show the link between the pond and surface
waters.

Comment: There is a detailed SPPP for the facility (combined with the emergency
response and SPCC requirements). The SPPP contains a general location map but it
contained minimal information. Most of the required information for the general location
map was noted on the site map. Please add the name of the receiving stream (UT to
Caldwell Creek), accurate lat. and long. coordinates for the point of discharge, and
information on stream -impairment/TMDL development to the site map (space available).
The SPPP is updated annually (last update 1/29110) but did not contain a Feasibility
study; please add this section to the plan. Employee training (combined spill, SPPP,
and SPCC together) was conducted in 4/10. The permittee conducts monthly
Stormwater facility inspections and has a very good housekeeping and preventative
maintenance plan. The permittee is currently installing secondary containment along
the TDI railcar and truck unloading areas.
Qualitative Monitoring Yes No NA NE

Comment: Facility personnel noted that visual monitoring is conducted on the water
within the FXI pond. Please be advised that the permit required qualitative monitoring is
to be conducted on the stormwater discharging from the site (pond discharge). Please
make this change so you are monitoring the quality of stormwater leaving the site. The
Division's guidance document on qualitative monitoring was provided during the
inspection.

■ n n n
Comment- The permittee has designated one outfall on site, discharge from the FXI
pond. A second outfall was observed, which collect roof drain water from the foam
storage building and directs it to a ditch along Bailey Road on the south side of the
facility. There are no roof vents on the storage building so this water is not exposed to
industrial activities and does not need to be added to the SPPP as an outfall.
During the inspection a stormwater catch basin was discovered next to the maintenance
building which does not appear on the SPPP site map. Stormwater flow from this catch
basin appeared to be away from the main facility and not towards the stormwater pond.
The permittee shall investigate to where this catch basin drains stormwater or FXI may
choose to permanently sea] it since it does not appear to drain a large volume of water
(permittee's choice).
Please see the summary section of this report for additional information on the FXI
stormwater outfalls.

This is the 1970 USGS map that shows a direct link (stream)
between the Foamex pond and the UT to Caldwell Station, It
shows a I O-ft drop-off (each topo line= 10 ft) from the pond
but as I stated in the inspection the channel is incised (has
been deepened) which may pose a risk to the Foamex pond
integrity.
