A copy of the transmittal letter for your coverage under the general stormwater permit is attached. An additional outfall was identified during the inspection, which should be added to the qualitative and analytical monitoring at the facility. Finally, the permittee needs to review the Signatory Requirements of the permit and ensure all documentation regarding the permit (permit application, Discharge Monitoring Reports, illicit discharge evaluations, etc.) adheres to these requirements. Thank you for the assistance and cooperation during this inspection.

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'perrhitting 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://h2o,enr.state.nc.us/sufForms_Documents.htm Permit text, technical bulletins, discharge monitoring forms, and a Notice of Intent [which is the application of for coverage under a NPDES General Stormwater Permit] can be found at this web site. 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. That said, please see the above mentioned'web site in order to obtain a copy of the permit such that you may fully comply with all the conditions therein. Failure to properly comply with conditions of the permit, like those bulleted below, constitutes violations and are subject 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 (D WQ) 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 water 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 following condition requirements (you must read your entire permit to ensure full compliance): Mooresville Regional Office Location: 610 East Center Ave., Suite 301 Mooresville, NC 28115 One Phone: (704) 663-16991 Fax: (704) 663-60401 Customer Service: 1-877-623.6748 NorthCarolina Internet: wurw.ncwatarquaiity,org �atur�ll� An Equal opportunityL Affirmative Action Employer— 50% Recycledl10% Post Consumer paper l/ Mr. Vic Reece, Mecklenburg County Fleet Management Facility Compliance Evaluation Inspection, Page 2 May 22, 2009 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 o Collection, reporting and recording of Vehicle Maintenance Monitoring o Records — Visual monitoring shall be documented and records maintained at the facility along with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.

Sampling in October 2008 (Outfalls 3, 4, and 5) and December 2008 (Outfalls 1 and 2) resulted in an exceedance of a benchmark concentration. Outfall 2 had elevated TSS results (190 mg/L) compared with the general permit benchmark concentration of 100 mg/L. Corrective actions of sweeping the parking lot brought the concentration below benchmarks in April 2009, However, Outfall 3 was slightly above the benchmarks in April 2009. The permittee should explore vegetating all outfalls which currently have soil/sediment bottoms and pooling water with sand bags to avoid entraining sediment in future analytical samples. Permit and Outfalls # Is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? # Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? # If the facility has representative outfall status, is it properly documented by the Division? # Has the facility evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges? Comment: A copy of the cover letter/COC was not available during the inspection and is being provided as part of this inspection report. An illicit discharge evaluation was last completed in 11108. Please ensure that the appropriate municipal official (as defined in Part III, Section B, Item #5 - Signatory Requirements of the permit) is signing all permit required documentation (DMRs, illicit discharge evaluations, annual updates, etc.) and this delegation of signature authority from the County Board of Commissioners is documented in the SPPP. The permittee had identified five outfalls at the facility but an additional outfall was identified during the inspection due to the proximity of surface waters. The inspector had discussed with Mr. Martin and Mr. Farmer only conducting analytical monitoring at "Vehicle Maintenance" outfalls (#1, 2, 3, and newly identified outfall). However, a review of the general permit (NCG080000) indicates that facilities that use > 55 gallons must analytically monitor all outf Yes No NA NE Page: 4 Michael F. Easley, Governor William G.

This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated December 6, 1983, The following information is included with your permit package: • A new Certificate of Coverage • A copy of stormwater General Permit NCG080000 • A copy of a Technical Bulletin for the General Permit • Five copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form • Five copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater only, and it specifies your obfigations with respect to stormwater discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage include the following: • Part I Section A - A new notation that the No Exposure Exclusion from permitting option may be available to the permittee. • Part I Section A - A new provision that facilities draining to 303(d) listed waters, or in watersheds with an approved TMDL, may not be eligible for renewed coverage under the General Permit. • Part 11 Section B Table 1 - An increased sampling frequency from once per year to twice per year. • Part II Section B Table 3 - Benchmark concentrations now replace cutoff concentrations; the elimination of the option to avoid sampling based on cutoff concentrations. • Part 11 Section B - New provisions requiring the permittee to execute Tier One and Tier Two response actions, based on the first benchmark exceedence (Tier One) and the second consecutive benchmark exceedence (Tier Two). Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring instead of twice -per -year monitoring, until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences. • Part 11 Section B - A new provision that four exceedences of any particular benchmark will trigger increased DWQ involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions. DWQ may direct the permittee to apply for an individual permit, or may direct the implementation or installation of specific stormwater control measures. DWQ received a number of comments on a series of general permits similar to this one. A full response to comments can be found at http://ncwaterquality.org/su/industriaigpinio.him. Some comments resulted in permit modifications, others are addressed in the response document or Fact Sheet. A few specific requests for clarification are addressed below. 1. What is the deadline for having a revised SPPP that reflects the provisions of the new General Permit? DWQ will require that the permittee have a revised, complete SPPP no later than six months after the date of issue of that permittee's new Certificate of Coverage. 2. Must analytical results be by a certified lab? What about phi measurements? All analytical results obtained to satisfy NPDES permit requirements must be certified, as directed in North Carolina regulations at 15A NCAC 2H .0800, and as administered by DWQ's Laboratory Section Certification Branch. This includes field pH measurements. �-iop-1C:tro ina �aturn�ly North Carolina Division of Water Quality 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Phone (919) 733-7015 Customer Service Internet: h2o.enr.state.ne.uslsulslormwater,html 512 N.

Fourth Street Charlotte, NC 28202 Fax 704.336.65A The fleet management facility located at 900 West 121h Street in Charlotte, NC currently has Certificate of Coverage # NCGO80063 for NPDES General Stormwater Permit NCG080000. The City of Charlotte took over management and operation of that facility from Mecklenburg County in duly 2008 of this year. We have continued to operate in compliance with the general permit. As the person who manages municipal stormwater pollution prevention and good housekeeping for the City of Charlotte, I am writing on behalf of the 12`h Street facility and the City of Charlotte to request that the Certificate of Coverage be rescinded. First of all, I believe the facility did not originally fall under the general permit it was issued since its SIC code is not one of those listed in the permit (40, 41, 42). Rather, it is a vehicle maintenance facility, which generally falls under SIC Major Group 75. Under Major Group 75, the following direction is provided: Similar facilities owned and operated by concerns for their own use and not for the general public are treated as auxiliary establishments. According to the SIC system, auxiliary establishments are treated as follows: those establishments primarily serving other establishments of the same enterprise are classified in the industry of the establishments served. Since the fleet management facility services and maintains government vehicles for "our own use and not the general public" and services other establishments (i.e., other departments) of the same enterprise (i.e., all local government), then it clearly is an auxiliary establishment. The facility services mainly light -duty vehicles. The "industry of the establishments served" varies, and includes, but is not limited to, the following SIC codes. None of the SIC codes require an NPDES General Stormwater permit: • 9221 — Police Protection • 9511— Air & Water Resources and Solid Waste Management • 9431— Administration of Public Health • 8322 — Social Services • 9199 — General Government, not elsewhere classified • To report pollution, call: 704.336.5500 To report drainage problems, call: 311 01IM11"IT1 http://stormwater.charmeck.org js� Charlotte -Mecklenburg Storm Water Services administers the City of Charlotte's NPDES MS4 permit. One of the required permit programs is Municipal Pollution Prevention and j Good Housekeeping. We have been and will continue to oversee and manage stormwater issues for the 12`h Street Fleet Management Facility as part of that program. Program measures include regular inspections, training and development/implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). The facility is already implementing a SPPP. Thank you very much for considering this Certificate of Coverage rescission request. Please contact me at cmmiller@ci.charlotte.nc.us or by phone at (704) 336-7605 if you have any questions regarding this matter.

An illicit discharge evaluation was last completed in 11108. Please ensure that the appropriate municipal official (as defined in Part III, Section B. Item #5 - Signatory_ Requirements of the permit) is signing all permit required documentation (DMRs, illicit discharge evaluations, annual updates, etc.) and this delegation of signature authority from the County_ Board of Commissioners is documented in the SPPP. The permittee had identified five outfalls at the facility but an additional outfall was identified during the inspection due to the proximity of surface waters. The inspector had discussed with Mr. Martin and Mr. Farmer only conducting analytical_ monitoring at "Vehicle Maintenance" outfalls (#1, 2, 3. and newly identified outfall). However, a review of the general permit (NCG080000) indicates that facilities that use > 55 gallons must anal3dically monitor all outfalls.
