Director December 4, 2012 Dee Freeman Secretary Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal Catawba Co- Landfill COC Number NCG120001 Catawba County In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG120000 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued General Permit. 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 October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). The following information is included with your permit package: • A new Certificate of Coverage (COC) • A copy of General Permit NCG120000 • A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit • Two copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form • Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations for discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six (6) months from the time of receipt of the permit to update your current SPPP to reflect all new permit requirements. The first sample period of your permit begins January 1, 2013. Your facility must sample a "measureable storm event" beginning during the periods beginning January 1 and July 1 of every year (or, if applicable, report "No Flow," as outlined in Part III, Section E). Also, please note that Tier 3 Actions in Part II of your permit are triggered by benchmark exceedances on four occasions beginning on the effective date of this permit and do not count prior exceedances. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last COC was issued are noted either in the Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice (http://portal.ncdenr.ors/web/w4/ws/suicurrent- notices), or in the Response to Comments / Summary of Changes and Technical Bulletin documents that are posted on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website with the new General Permit.

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 B, 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 0, C. The term "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm Event." A measurable storm event is defined in the permit. • Section 0: 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 (919) 807-6300.

On January 10, 2008 we denied that request. After several subsequent email contacts with Mr. Pasko, we have addressed his questions and we have modified our previous response to your request as follows. Mr. Pasko noted that extensive in -stream sampling had been accomplished, and that all the results were non -detect. Unfortunately, we cannot use the in -stream data for this landfill permit as it is not direct from the outfall, some points do not capture upstream stormwater runoff, and some are downstream of more than one discharge point. It also does not appear that you have TSS, fecal coliform, or COD parameters in your data - these are required stormwater monitoring parameters as identified in your permit. The conditions of Blackburn MSW's permit state that the facility will have stormwater monitoring data on file, the facility will conduct monitoring in the last year of their old permit, and the facility will submit this data with the renewal form. Unfortunately, Blackburn MSW has not complied with any of these sampling requirements. Please be advised that without the required permit data from the previous permit cycle we will not be able to consider ROS for this facility. Ater studying your site plan again, we believe nine (9) monitoring points would be sufficient: outfalls 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15. As we would like to see monitoring data in order to make a sound decision for ROS, we would like to have data from the first four (4) monitoring events. You may then apply for ROS based on the analytical results for the required permit parameters from these 4 sample events. w F WAT Ap Michael F. Easley, Governor William G.

Per our phone conversation on Tuesday January 8th, 2008 I must deny the requested Representative Outfall Status at the Blackburn MSW Landfill Facility at this time. As we discussed on the phone the State of North Carolina must base this decision on data collection. However, as we discussed we would consider a future re -application for Representative Outfall Status at Blackburn MSW Landfill Facility with the addition of analytical sampling data consistent with the permit requirements. We would like Blackburn MSW Landfill Facility to submit at least four (4) sampling data sets to base the decision of Representative Outfall Status. The sampling frequency and types of data -are outlined in the general permit NC6120000. A copy of this permit can be found at: hgp://h2o_enr.state_nc.us/su/Forms ,Documents.htm#StormwaterGP The conditions of Representative Outfall Status are such that if a Best Management Practice (BMP) is required to mitigate stormwater runoff from a representative area, all areas that are represented by this outfall shall also have separate BMPs for each outfall area (as all areas are deemed similar). If you have any questions concerning representative outfall status or the general permit, please contact me at telephone number (919) 733-5083 ext. 591.

This includes runoff from active and closed landfill cells, soil borrow/stockpile areas, the convenience center, grinding operation, fuel storage, and vehicle maintenance area. Catawba County is pro -active in controlling stormwater runoff from landfill activities. Sediment basins are designed as permanent structures, typically able to handle 100-year storm events. Landfill staff conducts routine inspection of all sediment basins and sediment is removed as necessary in order for the basins to operate effectively and efficiently. In order to satisfy the Landfill Operating Permit, the County is required to conduct surface water monitoring at four stream locations on a semi-annual basis. Figure 1 is a Location Map of the Blackburn Landfill Facility. Figure 2 illustrates the following at the Blackburn Landfill Facility: • Blackburn Landfill property lines • Active and closed landfill units • Soil stockpile area • Topographic information • Stream locations • The 15 point source discharge drainage areas and associated outfall • The non -point source discharge drainage areas • The proposed representative outfall (Drainage Area 1) • The four existing surface water monitoring points • Vehicle maintenance facility (greater than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month) • Diesel fuel storage tank (10,000 gallons with secondary containment) • Leachate storage tanks (438,000 gallon capacity with secondary containment. Leachate levels are kept as low as possible) Proposed Representative Outfall The County would like to obtain representative outfall status for the stormwater discharge from Drainage Area 1. Drainage Area 1 is 32.2 acres and includes approximately 21 acres of active MSW landfill, the vehicle maintenance facility, the leachate storage tanks, the landfill office, and the diesel fuel storage tanks. Stormwater runoff in this drainage area is directed to the sediment basin at outfall 1, as shown on Figure 2. Stormwater monitoring samples will be collected from the discharge pipe of the sediment basin located at Outfall 1. Drainage Area 1 is representative of activities of the entire Blackburn Landfill Facility and includes the leachate storage tanks, diesel fuel storage tanks, and vehicle maintenance facility. Analytic monitoring as set forth in Part II, Sections B (Analytical Monitoring) & D (On -Site Vehicle Maintenance Monitoring) of the Permit will be conducted in this drainage area. Mr. Bradley Bennett December S, 2007 Page 3 Mr. Bennett, we appreciate your prompt review of this request. The County would like to be prepared to collect samples when the Year 1 — Period 1 begins on January 1, 2008. Please let us know if you have any questions or require additional information.
