This informs them of the potential health risks associated with these materials AND how to find out more Information on preventing these risks & responding to accidents. For example, "HazComm" training informs employees on how to get information from a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). For small spills (typically less than 5-gal) of common materials, Haz Comm training may be sufficient as spill prevention and clean-up training.. - For more serious spills, outside agencies may need to be notified (Fire Dept, 911, etc). Employees need to be trained in notification procedures as well. - If a facility designates its own employees as the "spill response team" for all types of spill (including larger, more serious spills), then more extensive training may be required (i.e., HazWOPER) r , � . . 4 ' ' ` . _, f • A � ` t ' Page913: VVWT'P List of Significant Spills Calendar Year Covered: 20Q8 Pale 2 List all the Significant Spills that have occurred at this WWTP during the specified calendar year.

Box 1111 Statesville, NC 28687 Subject: General Permit COC No. NCG110112 Fourth Creek WWTP SPPP Review 'Iredell County Dear Mr. Smith: We received a copy of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) prepared by McGill Associates on the City of Statesville's behalf on October 6, 2008. We are providing our review comments to you. Please address deficiencies and consider revisions to address the following concerns. • General Comments: This SPPP uses the template SPPP forms available for the Auto Salvage industry under NCG100000. It is not a problem to borrow from that template,•' however, several references -to terms specific to that industry were not removed or modified. For example, the document references "Yard Areas" and "Salvage Yard List of Significant Spills," as well as the Total Toxic Organics (TTO) certification that is not applicable to the Stormwater Permit for WWTPs. We are advising you to edit the SPPP more appropriately. Also, please note that the NCG110000 General Permit has a more recent version of SPPP requirements (although similar to NCG100000). It is the permittee's responsibility to ensure its Plan is consistent with the details in the right permit. • General Location Map (Page 2): The receiving waters are not filled in on the table under the map. Also, the map (or the site plan) did not identify that this segment of Fourth Creek is on the 303d List of Impaired Waters (Please see: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/documents/303d Re ort. df). This receiving stream was listed as impaired in the 2006 report because of fecal coliform and turbidity standard violations, as well as impaired biological integrity. This information should be recorded in the SPPP. (Attached is an excerpt from the 303(d) List for your reference.) • Storage and Activities Description (Page 3): This section includes areas of storage but does not describe any of the areas that drain to stormwater discharge outfalls. The narrative description section should also identify activities, storage, loading, disposal, etc. in each of the areas draining to SDO-I, - 2, and -3.

Also, the area numbers on Page 3 do not appear to match any numbered areas on this map (the previous page is set up to correspond areas.by numbers). We cannot read the notations on map to see where materials are stored; drainage directions; etc. Consider including a Iarger copy (for example, a folded I V x 14" size) in the SPPP and ensure that the items checked are clearly shown and labeled. • Stormwater Discharge Outfall Certification Statement (Page 5A): This certification references "the salvage yard listed below." Please make revisions as appropriate for this type of facility. • Feasibility Study (Page 6): We recognize that at most WWTPs, expansive stormwater BMP improvements (such as eliminating all exposure) will not be feasible. However, at the very least this section of the SPPP could address eliminating exposure. It is acceptable to document it is impractical and too expensive to place the entire treatment plant, or portions of the plant, under cover at this time. Perhaps there are smaller areas that could be considered for cover? • Secondary Containment (Page 7): We noted "5 or less 55 gallon drums of New/Used Oil" listed in this section. However, this material is not mentioned earlier in the storage areas described on Page 3. • BMP Summary, Maintenance & Housekeeping (Page 8): You included BMPs currently in practice. However, this section should also address other BMPs under consideration (both structural, such as vegetated filters, detention ponds, etc., and non-structural, such as good housekeeping). This section of the SPPP mirrors the requirement in Part II, 2. (c) `BMP Summary'. If there are no new BMPs under consideration for this year of the plan, it should be noted. • BMP Summary, Maintenance & Housekeeping (cont.): The `Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program' SPPP requirement of your General Permit (Part II, 4.) addresses regular inspections of material handling areas and cleaning schedules. You should note here where records of those regular inspections are kept. In addition, the program should specifically identify areas that have the potential for soil erosion. Have these been identified, or are there no areas at the plant where this is a potential problem? Also, positions responsible for the implementation of the SPPP are not named (this would fulfill the requirement in Part 1I, 6.). The `Responsible Employees' column of this section only has `YES' noted (meaning trained?) instead of what employee position is responsible. • Employee Training: Facility personnel or teams responsible for implementing Stormwater Management Training are not identified in this SPPP (See Part II, 5.), nor is any information included that demonstrates training is scheduled on an annual basis. • Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) (Page 9A): The facility personnel or team responsible for implementing the SPRP are not identified (as per Part I1, 3. of the permit). • Facility.Inspection Program: This requirement of the SPPP (see Part 1I, 8.) specifies semi-annual inspections of stormwater systems (collection points, conveyances, treatment devices, etc.). Inspections of these systems may be part of the plant area and equipment inspections already listed on Page 10 (Stormwater Area Inspection Checklist) of the SPPP, but it is not clear. Ensure that Page 10 of the SPPP you submitted includes inspection schedules of stormwater systems. Note also that the template used is not consistent with the current text of NCGI 10000=-these inspections are not restricted to "once in the spring and once in the fall" as the footnote reads, and the permit does require they be separated by at least 60 days unless performed more frequently. • Stormwater Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) (Page 11): This form is set up for the Auto Salvage permit. If you ever need to fill out a DMR because of vehicle maintenance activities (the only trigger for analytical monitoring under this permit), please modify this form as necessary or use the generic DMR form on our website: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms�Documents.htm#IstormwaterGP • TTO List, Solvent Management Plan, and TTO Certification Form (Pages.l2-13): These do not apply to the General Permit under which this plant is covered. r City of Statesville — Fourth Creek WWTP, SPPP Review February 6, 2009 p. 3 of 3 • SDO Qualitative Monitoring Report (Page 14): This form is not the current Qualitative Monitoring Form this facility should be using. You should have received the more recent form with the renewal permit package, but you may also access the form on our website. Note that the NCG110000 General Permit now specifies the Permittee record monitoring observations on a standard SDO Qualitative Monitoring Report form provided by the Division (see Part III, Section E, 1.). You can find that form and a guidance document on Qualitative Monitoring here: http://h2o.ear. state. nc.us/su/Forms Documents. htm#mi sc form s • Vehicle Check -in Sheet.(Page 15): This section is not applicable to this permit. Please address the deficiencies in your SPPP and make any other necessary revisions or updates. Attention to the issues described above will help you comply with the requirements of your NPDES Stormwater Permit; but it is important to familiarize yourself with General Permit NCG110000.
