Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG030000
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 (CDC)
• A copy of General Permit NCG030000
• 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 CDC was issued are noted either in the
Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice (http:/Iportal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/current-
notice ), 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. Please visit
http://Portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/npdessw (click on `General Permits' tab) to review that information
for your specific General Permit carefully.

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 B, C: A lower TSS benchmark of So 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].
Sincerely,
for Charles Wakild, P.E.

Case No. NOV-2008-PC-0257
Halifax County
Dear Mr. Neal:
A truncated stormwater inspection was carried out by Mr. Myrl Nisely of the Raleigh Regional
Office of the Division of Water Quality on April 7, 2008, This was the first time DWQ had
inspected Weldon Steel. Staff member James Newton was unavailable, but discussion with you
revealed that the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) documentation requirements of the
above permit had not been developed. The inspector reviewed with you the need for a
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) and briefly noted some of the components to be
included. You agreed to develop a plan and Mr. Nisely agreed to visit again within a few
months.
Later that day Mr. Dick Brabham, another of your staff members, telephoned Mr. Nisely to
obtain guidance about the SP3. They went through Part II of the permit. With that as a starting
point, they agreed that your facility will complete the plan by May 31, 2008. Assuming rainwater
will be available, sampling and employee training soon after that date are strongly urged.
Another inspection will be planned for the last quarter of 2008.
If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact rl Nisely at 919-791-4200.

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: httpa/h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms_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 (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 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):

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. Copies of the
analytical monitoring results shall also be maintained on -site. The Permittee
shall retain records of all monitoring information, including all calibration and
maintenance records and all original strip chart recordings for continuous
monitoring instrumentation, and copies of all reports required by this general
permit for a period of least S years for 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. 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 -- 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 tb the Division of Water Quality
along with all appropriate information.
o Proper Operation and Maintenance is a requirement of the permit.
