Some of the changes include:
Part II:
• Section A: The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) section, if applicable, has been updated
to the most current language of our permits. Additional conditions for specific industry sectors have
been added to the SPPP requirements in some cases.
• Sections B, C: Failure to perform analytical stormwater monitoring may result in the Division requiring
that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme.
• Sections 6, C: A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/I for HQW, ORW, PNA and Tr Waters applies to these
more sensitive waters.
• Sections B, C. The monitoring parameter Oil & Grease (O&G) has been replaced by the parameter
Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) for vehicle maintenance areas, and in some cases, other
analytical monitoring requirements.
• Sections B, C, D: Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be recorded in the SPPP, or in
separate on -site records if your General Permit does not require an SPPP. Adverse weather is defined
in the "Definitions" section of the permit.
• Sections B, C: The term "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm
Event." A measurable storm event is defined in the permit.
• Section D: If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative
monitoring, DWQ may require the permittee to perform corrective action.
Please review Parts III and IV to understand the Standard Conditions of your new NPDES General Permit,
including Compliance and Liability, Reporting, Monitoring and Records requirements; Operation and
Maintenance obligations; and Definitions. Please note that all samples analyzed in accordance with the terms
of this permit must be submitted to the Division on Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms available on
the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website above. DMR forms must be delivered to the Division no later than
30 days from the date the facility receives the sampling results from the laboratory. Also note that existing
permittees do not need to submit a renewal request prior to expiration unless directed by the Division.
Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ. This permit
does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor does it
relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law,
rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. If you have any questions regarding this permit
package, please contact the Division's Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone].

Certificate of Coverage — NCG060148
Mecklenburg County
Dear Mr. Dalsing:
Enclosed are the monitoring results from the stormwater sampling on the discharge from Stormwater Outfail
007 at the subject facility on March 5, 2013. The grab samples were collected during the sampling
investigation performed by Jeff Mitchell of Charlotte -Mecklenburg Storm Water Services and included analyses
required by your permit and additional analyses of interest in stormwater discharges. This sampling
investigation was conducted as part of a cooperative working agreement between Mecklenburg County and
the Division of Water Quality. In addition, the inspection was conducted on behalf of the City of Charlotte in
compliance with the City's NPDES Permit, NCS000240, Part II Section H.
The enclosed monitoring results indicate that the stormwater discharged on March 5, 2013, did not contain
elevated concentrations (when compared with the corresponding benchmarks) of the parameters monitored in
NCG060000. However, elevated concentrations of zinc were detected as compared with the Division's
benchmarks developed for this parameter (usually contained in individual stormwater permits; zinc 67 pg/L).
Through the development and implementation of stormwater management programs it is the Division of Water
Quality's expectation that stormwater discharges at industrial sites covered by NPDES stormwater permits do
not impact receiving waters. The enclosed results should be self-explanatory; however should you have any
questions concerning the interpretation of the sampling results or questions regarding your permit
requirements, please do not hesitate to contact Jeff Mitchell with CMSWS at [phone] or Ms. Marcia
Aliocco of the Division of Water Quality at [phone].

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.
Copies of the general permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following webpage:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/weblwq/ws/su/npdessw#General_Permits_NPDES. Permit text, technical bulletins,
discharge monitoring forms, and a Notice of Intent [which is the application for coverage under a NPDES
General Stormwater Permit] 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
above mentioned website to obtain a copy of the permit so you may fully comply with all the conditions therein.
Failure to properly comply with conditions of the permit, like those bulleted below, is a violation(s) of
the permit and subject to civil penalty assessment(s) 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 filing of a Notice of Intent (NOI) and Applicable Fees.
This Notice of Intent (NOI) must be submitted and a Cefficate 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
o Collection, reporting, and recording of Qualitative Monitoring

MOORESVIL�E SECTIOrd
REGIONAL OFFICE
Snyder's-Lance, Inc. is submitting a written response to the issues identified in the Notice of
Violation NOV-2012-PC-0107. The following response includes the cited violations of the permit,
and the actions taken to prevent a similar occurrence in the future.
Erosion
In addition to the erosion at Outfall #S, there was an eroded ditch on the opposite side of the
fence adjacent to the wastewater treatment plant effluent.
The facility is currently assessing all outfalls at the site for signs of erosion. The facility proposes
to address the erosion concerns at Outfall #5 in a project which is scheduled to be completed by
June 1, 2012.
Housekeeping Issues
A moderate oil stain was observed near the facility's wastewater treatment plant
The origin of the oil stain is unknown. It is expected that the stain was generated by a service
vehicle. The soil has been removed in this area and has been disposed of properly.
White staining was observed on the facility's paved road According to facility personnel, a
truck accidentally spilled flour onto the pavement and the spill was cleaned, however, residual
flour remained on the pavement after the clean-up.

Spyqer'slance_
All residual flour has been removed from this area_ In addition, facility personnel have been
directed to clean-up all spills immediately and to notify their supervisors. Supervisors have been
instructed to perform post clean-up inspections.
Two, unopened 10-gallon gallon totes of petroleum were observed on the ground near Outfall
#11. No product was observed on the ground surface. Facility personnel removed the totes
immediately. This is not an appropriate disposal method
The totes have been removed from the area. Employees have been trained to store all oil
containers inside. There is no oil exposed to stormwater in this area.
Oil staining was observed on the pavement in front of the vehicle maintenance area.
The oil stain was removed using Oil-Dri and the contaminated Oil-Dri was disposed of properly.
Employees have been trained to perform maintenance activities inside the garage area and not
outside. In addition, employees have been instructed to clean up spills and leaks immediately.
Illicit Discharges/Disposal
A thick oily discharge was observed on the pavement adjacent to the potato scrap dumpster.
Facility personnel stated that several old drums were recently moved from the area and the thick
covering on the ground was an old tarp; however, afoul odor was present and the affected area
had an oily appearance.
Previous operating procedures at the Chip Plant included the storage of used oil bins outside in the
area adjacent to the potato scrap dumpster. The used oil bins did not have a discharge. However, a
small amount of oil residue could be seen on top of the containers. We presume the oil stain
observed during the inspection was a result of improper housekeeping and storage of the used oil
bins. The area was cleaned on March 16, 2012.
Recently implemented procedures require used oil bins to be wiped down prior to storage. The
used oil bins are now stored inside a truck located near the Chip Plant and are not exposed to
stormwater. In addition, Snyder's-Lance has requested that used oil be removed from the facility
on a more frequent schedule. Employees have been trained to store oil inside or in the used oil
storage truck. With these new procedures, no used oil will be exposed to stormwater. The facility
has established a routine inspection schedule of this used oil area.
Snyder's-Lance has defined a long term solution to address the used oil generated at the Chip
Plant. The facility proposes to add three 300-gallon used oil storage tanks. The tanks will be
stored outside with proper secondary containment. The facility expects the capital project to be
completed in three months.

Snyders_Lance
Page 3
The facility has several ASTs. The tanks appeared to be in good condition with the exception of
one diesel tank observed to have a slow, steady leak from the piping. The discharge of diesel
fuel to the ground is prohibited
During the initial inspection on January 26, 2012, the diesel tank valve was seen with a few drips
of fuel on it. While there was evidence of an oil stain on the ground, there was not a puddle
formed underneath the valve. The cause of the drip was due to the valve being slightly loosened.
The facility submitted a work order to repair the valve and the valve was tightened and retaped on
February 1, 2012. Absorbent material was used to clean the area following the March 16, 2012
inspection.
The facility has implemented good housekeeping practices including routine inspections to identify
and correct findings in a timely manner.
Totes of used oil were observed in the loading/unloading area. Oil staining was observed on the
outside of the totes and on the pavement.
The oil totes were immediately removed as a result of the January 26, 2012 inspection. The oil
totes stored on the loading/unloading area did not have a discharge. However, an oil residue could
be seen on the outside of the containers. We presume the oil stain observed during the inspection
was a result of improper housekeeping and storage of the used oil totes. During the March 16,
2012 inspection, a new tote had been moved outside. The tote was clean and did not have a
discharge. The facility has removed all totes stored in this area and has cleaned the oil stain with
absorbent material.
Employees have been trained to store all oil containers inside. No used oil will be exposed to
stormwater. Recently implemented procedures require routine inspections of the used oil area.
Snyder's-Lance has defined a long term solution to address the used oil generated at the Bakery.
The facility proposes to add two 300-gallon used oil storage tanks. The tanks will be stored inside
the Bakery with proper secondary containment. The facility expects the capital project to be
completed in three months.
The loading/unloading area for sugar andflour lrour was observed to have wet pavement. According
to facility personnel, sugar and flour are washed off of the pavement as a routine practice.
The sugar and flour discharge observed during the site inspections were from poor housekeeping
procedures. The facility has removed all materials stored in this area and has cleaned stains on the
pavement. Employees have been trained on proper housekeeping procedures including storage
practices and the prohibition of washing down the pavement at the facility. Going forward, sugar
and flour remnants are properly removed and disposed of in the trash, where they will not be
exposed to stormwater.

Employee training records were observed for 2008 and 2009, but not 2010 or 2011. As required
by the permit, the permittee shall implement and document annual employee training for all
employees involved in facility operations that can affect stormwater discharges.
Stormwater training was performed in 2010 and 2011. However, due to employee transitions the
training records are not able to be located. Employees have been instructed on proper stormwater
management techniques. Formal Stormwater training for 2012 is scheduled to occur in the second
quarter.
Due to the issues noted by the inspector with regards to illicit discharges and housekeeping, the
pernddee should review the stormwater management plan section of the SPPP to ensure all
measures are taken and implemented to minimize stormwater contamination at the facility.
The facility is working with the Snyder's-Lance management team to ensure that the items
outlined in the Stormwater management plan section of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
are executed.
The facility has 11 piped stormwater outfalls. The stormwater outfalls were observed to be in
good condition with the exception of Outfall #5, which was eroded The permittee is required by
Part III, Section C, paragraph I of the NCG060000 to "at all times properly operate and
maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which
are installed or used by the permiltee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this general
permit"
The facility is currently assessing all outfalls at the site for signs of erosion. The facility proposes
to address the erosion concerns at Outfall #5 in a project which is scheduled to be completed by
June 1, 2012.
Snyder's-Lance is under new management and is committed to working with NCDENR to ensure
correction of the items identified above and for continued improvement of stormwater
management. if you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact me at (704) 557-

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.
Copies of the general 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, and a Notice of Intent [which is the application for coverage under a NPDES
General Stormwater Permit] 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
above mentioned website to obtain a copy of the permit so you may fully comply with all the conditions therein.
Failure to properly comply with conditions of the permit, like those bulleted below, is a violation(s) of
the permit and subject to civil penalty assessment(s) 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 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 e) pires 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
o Collection, reporting, and recording of Qualitative Monitoring

Inspection Summary:
Facility Description:
The Snyder's - Lance facility is a snack food manufacturing facility that has approximately 1,000 employees. The
facility operates 24 hours -a -day with three shifts.
Compliance History:
Charlotte -Mecklenburg Storm Water Services (CMSWS) and the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) personnel inspected
the facility in February 2007 and ,tune 2008, which resulted in a Notice of Violation/Recommendation for Enforcement
(NOWNRE) for both inspections. However, in each case enforcement was not pursued. In April 2008, CMSWS
responded to a cooking oil spill to the storm drain system on site.
Industrial Operations/Cfty of Charlotte Stormwater Ordinance Review:
Erosion -
In addition to the erosion at Outfall #5, there was an eroded ditch on the opposite side of the fence adjacent to
the wastewater treatment plant effluent.
Housekeeping Issues -
• A moderate oil stain was observed near the facility's wastewater treatment plant. The pemrittee should
implement good housekeeping practices to prevent spills. When spills occur, the spill should be cleaned using
absorbent materials.
• White staining was observed on the facility's paved road. According to facility personnel, a truck accidentally
spilled flour onto the pavement and the spill was cleaned; however, residual flour remained on the pavement
after the clean up. The facility should implement BMPs to ensure truck doors are locked before leaving the
facility.
• Two, unopened 10-gallon totes of petroleum were observed on the ground near outfall #11. No product was
observed on the ground surface. Facility personnel removed the totes immediately. This is not an appropriate
disposal method. The facility should properly dispose of totes to minimize the potential for pollutants to reach
the stormwater conveyance system.
• Oil staining was observed on the pavement in front of the vehicle maintenance area. The facility should clean
spills immediately using absorbent materials and place pans underneath leaky vehicles.
Illicit Discharges/Disposal -
• A thick oily discharge was observed on the pavement adjacent to the potato scrap dumpster. Facility
personnel stated that several old drums were recently moved from the area and the thick covering on the
ground was an old tarp; however, a foul odor was present and the affected area had an oily appearance. The
permittee should remove the old tarp, cease future oil discharges in the area, and properly clean up and
dispose of the oil on the ground.
• The facility has several ASTs. The tanks appeared to be in good condition with the exception of one diesel
tank observed to have a slow, steady leak from the piping. The discharge of diesel fuel to the ground is
prohibited. The facility should fix the leak. in addition, the facility should implement good housekeeping
practices including regular inspections of the AS Ts to prevent prolonged leaks.
• Totes of used oil were observed in the loading/unloading area. Oil staining was observed on the outside of the
totes and on the pavement. The facility should implement BMPs to ensure that all used oil is properly stored
and not exposed to stormwater. When spills occur, the spills should be cleaned using absorbent materials.
• The loading/unloading area for sugar and flour was observed to have wet pavement. According to facility
personnel, sugar and flour are washed off of the pavement as a routine practice. Washing off sugar and flour
to the storm drain system is prohibited Sugar and flour remnants should be properly removed and disposed of
in the trash_

Overflow Incident Snyders-Lance
Ryan,
Per our conversation, below is a summary of the overflow event last Friday the 1&h:
At 12:47 p.m. an overflow warning from Manhole ID 4 was sent via text message to Joe Sgroi, Ed Dalsing, Matt Greer,
and Gene Baird. Communication was immediately established. Sam Hazzard was the only one on site at this point in
time. He was able to locate and remove the manhole cover at approximately 01:05 and confirm the rising water. At
approximately 01:11, the manhole began to overflow at a rate estimated of 10 GPM - 15 GPM. I arrived on site a few
minutes after. Bakery manger was informed immediately to cease sanitation operations in the plant.
Bionomics was contacted immediately to come on site and jet the line to relieve the flow. L&L and Hazmat were called
to begin preparing suction trucks for mobilization. Ed Dalsing and I investigated ways to possibly dam the blockage. It
was difficult to determine the path of the spillage due to the recent snow fall. As efforts were being made to obtain
sand bags to contain the overflow, Bionomics arrived on site at approximately 01:50.
At 02:15, the blockage was cleared and flow was reestablished in manhole 4. Sam noted a slug of dough and cracker
meal released upstream of the blockage at manhole 5.
The level sensors worked properly and informed us immediately of an overflow condition. Had the level sensor not
been installed, I believe we would still be overflowing at this time.
Mr. Ryan Spidel with Mecklenburg County Government arrived on site on 2/17/14 to investigate the incident. As the
snow had begun to recede, it was evident the spill did not leave the property nor reach the stream.
Barbara Sifford with NCDENR Mooresville office was briefed on this information. She can be reached at
[e-mail] or 704-235-2196. She has been cc on this email.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Joe Sgroi, P.E.

Ms. Alloco,
This letter serves as the required written response to NOV and Recommendation for Enforcement G.S. 143-215.1
and NCG060148.
Summary of NOV Violations
I was contacted by Ms. Moore on May 5, 2008 and asked that she and you be allowed to visit the Lance facility at
8600 South Blvd for the purpose of reviewing our Stormwater Permit and conducting a site review. This was
accommodated that same afternoon. The permit was reviewed and you provided the following feedback as to
deficiencies in the way our SPPP plan was written and implemented.
1. Number Outfalls on plan drawing.
2. Place updates (spill events, etc.) in a book with the plan instead of separate sheets.
3. Update Signature.
4. Include feasibility study for trouble areas.
S. Include description of sanitation and maintenance program.
6. Document annual training/employee training.
7. Apply for Representative Outfall Status.
I communicated that I would have our Environmental Consultant review these changes with me and I would have
the changes made to the SPPP plan. This review has taken place and our consultant has begun the reevaluation
and modification to our SPPP plan. In addition to #4 and #6 above now being violations on this NOV, you have
identified the following additional violations:
8. Illicit discharge of potato water from the peel dumpster on the west side of the chip plant. (Noted on
previous inspections) Requested analytical test result not provided to the inspector.
9. Qutfail receiving illicit discharge not identified or monitored in SPPP plan.
10. Housekeeping issue on paved area at the south end of the chip plant. (Noted on previous inspection)
Quality. Snack Foods Since 1913

Response to NOV Violations
#4 —As stated above and during our meeting, I recognize that our permit requires a feasibility study to be included
for areas that may be a potential for surface water contamination. This process will be included in our SPPP plan
revision. This plan revision review has taken place and we are currently working with our consultant to update the
SPPP plan. The plan update will be completed in September.
#6 — As stated in our meeting, we do provide job specific orientation training to employees involved with the
handling and disposal of waste and waste oils. I understand this training must be extended to annual training and
documentation of the training must be included in the SPPP plan. This will be included in the updated SPPP plan.
#8 — We have changed the type of container here to one with no seal. The liquid inherent in this waste can no
longer leak to the ground. It is stated in the NOV that analytical test results for this outfall were to be provided to
the inspector. May and June produced no representative storm events. (Per NOAA Hourly Precipitation Tables for
Charlotte Douglas International AP). Status is complete.
#9 - I explained during our review that our current plan was written based on our assumption that we had
Representative Outfall Status. Under our prior permit and our assumption of Representative Outfall Status, our
SPPP plan stated that we are not required to perform qualitative test on the outfall that you reference in the NOV.
This outfall, and any other not included in our SPPP plan will be added to the update and monitored as required.
#10 —This area behind the chip plant has been noted on previous inspections as a potential exposure to surface
water contamination. It must be noted here that great improvements have been made in this area. This comment
was affirmed by Ms. Moore during the recent inspection. We realize that more improvement is necessary to
prevent the exposure still present. There are conditions here that will always exist that will expose this area to oils
and potato and food wastes. We do clean this area regularly (to be noted in SPPP) and we are striving to find
better storage and handling of these wastes (to be noted in feasibility study of SPPP).
Summary
Lance strives to be a "Best In Class" corporate citizen, a great place to work and a great business partner. We feel
strongly about protecting the environment and will continue to improve our practices to maintain these goals. We
value your expertise in this area and are open to continued suggestions and feedback to improve our efforts in this
area. When all items are complete we will request an official closure of the NOV.

NOV-2007-PC-0169
Lance Inc.
NPDES General Permit No. NCG060000, COC NCG060148
Mecklenburg County
On February 15, 2007, Ms. Meredith Moore of the Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program
(MCWQP) conducted an inspection of the subject facility. This inspection was conducted as
part of a cooperative working agreement between Mecklenburg County and the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality.
PERMIT:
Lance Inc. holds Certificate of Coverage No. NCG060148, which was issued on September 1,
2002, and will remain in effect for the duration of the Food and Kindred General Permit
(NCG060000), expiring on August 31, 2007. The certificate of coverage authorizes the
permittee to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activities, to the surface waters of
the State or to the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System, providing that the permittee treats,
controls, limits, and monitors the discharge as specified in the permit.
RECORDS/REPORTS:
A file review was conducted prior to the Lance Inc. inspection. MCWQP performed a previous
stormwater inspection of the Lance, Inc. facility on March 27, 2003. MCWQP had also
responded to three separate incidents at the Lance facility since 2002.
A review of the facility Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and related sub plans was
conducted during the inspection. All documents maintained by Lance Inc. were well organized
and readily available for inspection upon request. Qualitative monitoring reports were current.
The permittee has developed and implemented a SPPP; however, it was noted that the plan has
not been updated since 2003. _ _ _ J��� tna

This represents a violation of Stormwater General Permit NCG060000, which states:
• Part II Section A Paragraph 7: Plan Amendment. The Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
FACILITY SITE REVIEW:
The facility manufactures snack food products for human consumption and has facilities for local
and regional distribution. Lance uses vegetable oils in their production of their snack food
products. The facility is located in the 8000 block of South Boulevard. All runoff from
buildings and associated parking lots drains into Kings Branch (which is part of the Sugar Creek
watershed), a Class C water in the Catawba River basin. Facilities at the site include the main
manufacturing plant, potato chip plant, maintenance shop, truck wash, garage and fuel loading
station, storage warehouses, and administrative offices. Lance operates an on -site wastewater
pre-treatment system that discharges to Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utility's (CMU) sanitary sewer
system. Stormwater on the site drains to two active outfalls which discharge to two unnamed
tributaries to Kings Branch:
Outfall 001: This outfall drains the northern portion of the facility and discharges to a
stormwater ditch that ultimately drains to an unnamed tributary to Kings Branch. There was no
discharge at the time of the inspection. The outfall appeared clean and in good working
condition.
Outfall 002: This outfall drains the southern portion of the facility and discharges to an unnamed
tributary to Kings Branch. There was no discharge at the time of the inspection. Outfall 002 was
designed and constructed to discharge at the top of a hill via a concrete slope drain flume. Over
time, this concrete flume has broken up and is no longer functional. Consequently, stormwater
draining from Outfall 002 has eroded a gully down the hillside.
This represents a violation of Stormwater General Permit NCG060000, which states:
• Part III Section C Paragraph 1: Proper Operation and Maintenance. The
permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and
systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are
installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of
this general permit.
A potato unloading area is located at the rear of the potato chip plant. A hydraulic lift system
empties trailers of potatoes into the facility. Underneath the hydraulic lift platform is a chamber,
which contains two hydraulic cylinders and their associated hosing. The two hydraulic cylinders
support the lift platform and are anchored within the chamber (Figure 1). Additionally, the
chamber contains a drain (Figure 2) that discharges to the storm drainage system as confirmed
through recent dye testing by the facility. Hydraulic oil stained the length and concrete base of
the cylinders and the floor of the chamber. Potatoes and dirt were observed littering the floor of
the chamber.
The permittee is required through the development and implementation of a
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan to identify potential sources of pollution and
to describe the methods by which the facility will reduce the amount of pollutants
carried in the discharging stormwater to maintain compliance with the permit.

permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and
systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are
installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of
this general permit.
The oil reservoir for the hydraulic lift platform is situated adjacent to the underground chamber
(Figures 3 and 4). The ground around the base of the reservoir was stained with oil. During a
previous site visit on November 10, 2006, Lance personnel were advised to remove the
contaminated soil and backfill with clean material, and to repair any leaks causing the oil
accumulation. On February 15, 2007, it appeared that no remediation had been performed and
no documentation was present to indicate remediation had occurred.
This represents violations of the Oil Pollution and Hazardous Substances Control
Act, which states:
• North Carolina General Statute 143-215.83(a) Unlawful Discharges. It shall be
unlawful, except as otherwise provided in this Part, for any person to discharge,
or cause to be discharged, oil or other hazardous substances into or upon any
waters, tidal flats, beaches, or lands within this State, or into any sewer, surface
water drain or other waters that drain into the waters of this State, regardless of
the fault of the person having control over the oil or other hazardous substances,
or regardless of whether the discharge was the result of intentional or negligent
conduct, accident or other cause.
• North Carolina General Statute 143-215.83(b) Removal of Prohibited
Discharges. Any person having control over oil or other hazardous substances
discharged in violation of this Article shall immediately undertake to collect and
remove the discharge and to restore the area affected by the discharge as nearly
as may be to the condition existing prior to the discharge.
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.83 c Re uired Notice. Every person
owning or having control over oil or other substances discharged, upon notice
that such discharge has occurred, shall immediately notify the Department, of
the nature, location and time of the discharge and of the measures which are
being taken or are proposed to be taken to contain and remove the discharge.
In the parking lot to the rear of the potato unloading area, multiple containers of oil and grease
are stored outdoors. The containers are uncovered and exposed to rain and stormwater runoff.
Grease was observed on the ground around the containers (Figures 5 and 6)-
The permittee is required through the development and implementation of a
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan to identify potential sources of pollution and
to describe the methods by which the facility will reduce the amount of pollutants
carried in the discharging stormwater to maintain compliance with the permit.

On the west side of the potato chip plant, waste potato shavings are collected in a dumpster, prior
to disposal, which is stored on a paved area. At the time of the inspection, the dumpster was
leaking a cloudy liquid (Figure 7). This liquid ran down the paved area and into a storm drain.
Foamy liquid could be seen in a downstream storm drain inlet. Lance personnel were informed
during the inspection that this was an illicit discharge to the storm drainage system that must be
stopped immediately. On May 31, 2002, and August 31, 2006, MCWQP had addressed this
same issue at the facility. During each incident, Lance personnel were informed that the
discharge of this wastewater was not permitted_
This represents a violation of North Carolina General Statute 14,3.215.1 (a), which
states: ._ , ..
• No person shall do any of the following things or carry out any of the following
activities unless that person has received a permit from the Commission and has
complied with all conditions set forth in the permit:
(1) Make any outlets into the waters of the State
(6) Cause or permit any waste, directly or indirectly, to be discharged to
or in any manner intermixed with the waters of the State in violation
of the water quality standards
A truck maintenance and fueling area is located in the western portion of the facility. Outside of
the maintenance area, wheel rims are stored on a rack. In front of the rack, white staining was
evident on the pavement (Figures 8 and 9). Lance personnel indicated that the rims were
pressure washed and repainted in this area. The staining indicates that paint has been washed off
onto the pavement, eventually draining to the storm drain.
This represents a violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 (a) which
states:
• No person shall do any of the following things or carry out any of the following

Facility Description:
Lance Incorporated is a snack food manufacturer that operates three shifts/day and employees -1,000 people.
Compliance History:
Lance Incorporated had its stormwater program inspected in February 2007, by MCWQP personnel through the
delegated program with the Division of Water Quality. A number of issues were identified and a Notice of Violation
(NOV-2007-PC-0169) was issued. The Division recognizes the permittee's efforts to correct the noted issues and most
have been resolved to the satisfaction of the inspector. However, the inspection revealed that issues still exist with the
illicit discharge of potato wastewater at the west side of the plant (to additional stormwater outfall line identified during
the inspection) and the housekeeping with the potatoes, potato wastewater, and waste "cooking" oil noted in the
drainage area for Outfall 2.
stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (cont.)
The SPPP contained general statements regarding preventative maintenance and housekeeping, which is inadequate.
The SPPP must contain specifics steps taken by the permittee to prevent stormwater contamination from industrial
activities on site. As per Part II, Section A, Item #4, "A preventative maintenance program shall be developed. The
program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant
equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be
incorporated into the program."
Permit and Outfalls (cont.)
Outfall 2 had been identified in a previous inspection as needing maintenance and repair. The outfall has been
repaired and a new concrete discharge flume installed. This outfall was observed during the previously noted spill
investigation and a wastewater fungus was noted in the pooled water at the base of the flume. There was no evidence
of wastewater fungus on the day of the inspection. However, there were potatoes, potato wastewater, and waste
"cooking" oil noted in the drainage area for Outfall 2.
The permittee needs to improve the housekeeping in this area to prevent illicit discharges from entering the stormwater
system. Required housekeeping activities should be coordinated with the on -site maintenance group and their role in
preventing stormwater pollution documented in the SPPP. In addition, stormwater training must be given to those
employees responsible for maintenance as required by the permit,
An additional outfall line was discovered in the middle portion of the site during the inspection, which discharges on the
western side of the site into Kings Branch. Neither qualitative nor analytical monitoring had been conducted for this
outfall line. There was visual evidence that wastewater from a potato -waste dumpster had been discharged to the
storm drain inlet in the bermed asphalt area in which the dumpster is stored. The asphalt in this area appeared to be
degraded by past discharges and houseflies were witnessed on and around the storm drain inlet immediately
downstream from the potato -waste dumpster area. This downstream inlet also contained a pipe, which appeared to
collect rainwater from the roof of the adjacent manufacturing building. The roof housed vents that appeared to be
associated with oil -based food production and could be a source of stormwater contamination.
The stormwater program coordinator for Lance was directed to collect two analytical samples from the discharge pipes
for the potato -waste dumpster and the roof drains in this downstream inlet and forward the results to the inspector. As
of the date of this report no results have been received. This illicit discharge was identified in a previous inspection
conducted by MCWQP.
Coverage under General permit NCG060000 (Lance COC NCG060148) allows the permittee to discharge only clean
stormwater and therefore, the permittee must immediately cease all illicit discharges to the stormwater collection
system and surface waters of the State of North Carolina.

Does the site have a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan?
# Does the Plan include a General Location (USGS) map?
# Does the Plan include a "Narrative Description of Practices"?
# Does the Plan include a detailed site map including outfall locations and drainage areas?
# Does the Plan include a list of significant spills occurring during the past 3 years?
# Has the facility evaluated feasible alternatives to current practices?
# Does the facility provide all necessary secondary containment?
# Does the Plan include a 6MP summary?
# Does the Plan include a Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)?
# Does the Plan include a Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Plan?
# Does the facility provide and document Empioyee Training?
# Does the Plan include a list of Responsible Party(s)?
# Is the Plan reviewed and updated annually?
# Does the Plan include a Stormwater Facility Inspection Program?
Has the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan been implemented? ■ 0 D ❑
Comment: The permittee has not formally documented an evaluation of feasible
alternatives to current practices although some practices have been changed as a result
of the last stormwater'inspection. Please document in the SPPP all evaluations
completed in an effort to reduce.stormwater contamination from industrial activities on
site.
The permittee has provided training to managers to new employees but does not
provide annual stormwater training as required by the permit to all employees whose job
can affect stormwater. The permittee must identify and provide training to those
employees involved in any of the facility's operations that have the potential to
contaminate stormwater runoff. Possible job functions identified during the inspection
that could affect stormwater runoff include personnel involved in facility maintenance,
landscaping, and housekeeping (oil and potato dumpster areas for example).
Additional information regarding the SPPP can be found in the Summary section of this
report.

Permit. NCGO60148 Owner - Facility: Lance Inc
Inspection Date: 05/05/2008 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Comment: The permittee has completed semi-annual qualitative monitoring at Outfalls
1 and 2 but the last documented monitoring was conducted in 2006. However, an
additional outfall line was discovered during the inspection. This outfall must be added
to the SPPP and qualitative monitoring conducted for discharges from this outfall line.
Analytical Monitoring Yes No NA NE
Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring? ■ n n n
# Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring from Vehicle Maintenance areas? n n ■ n
Comment: The permittee does conduct vehicle mantenenace on site but stormwater
discharges from the vehicle maintenance area do not leave the site through a discrete
conveyance and therefore analytical monitoring for vehicle maintenance is not required.
The permittee has completed the required analytical monitoring at Outfalls 1 and 2.
However, an additional outfall line was discovered during the inspection. This outfall
must be added to the SPPP and analytical monitoring conducted for stormwater
discharges from this outfall line regardless of access issues.
Permit and Outfalls Yes No NA NE

# Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? n ■ n !�
# If the facility has representative outfall status, is it properly documented by the Division? n n ■ n
# Has the facility evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges? n ■ n n
Comment: The permittee is required by the permit to evaluate illicit discharges
annually. The permittee has identified two stormwater outfalls at the facility. The
stormwater inspection was conducted shortly after a petroleum spill that reached a
storm drain inlet for Outfall 1 but did not leave the site. MCWQP personnel provided
oversight for the spill cleanup and therefore this outfall was not visited during the
stormwater inspection.
Additional information regarding the Permit and Outfalls section of the inspection can be
found in the Sua mary section of this report.

Dear Permitice:
Your facility is currently covered for Stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG060000. 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
