On Saturday 2/9/2019, The Mexican Original Sanford Plant experienced a spill of approximately
23 gallons of oil/washdown water from the sanitation lift station tank. Less than 1 gallon of the
spill conveyed across the parking lot and reached the stormwater drain on the east side of the
facility that is on property. A section of the stormwater creek downstream of the spill was diked
off and the contaminated water was pumped out and transferred back into the facility wastewater
drain system. Other affected areas were cleaned up using pumps and pigmat absorbents. The
location contacted the emergency response number listed on the facilities stormwater permit. As
a result, the incident was reported to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality.
The following agencies were notified on 2/9/19:

911: Mr. Lineberry (Sanford Fire Department)

Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal
Tyson Foods Inc - Mexican Original Sanford
COC Number NCGO60024
Lee County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG060000
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 NCG060000
• 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 111, 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.//Porta1.ncdenr.6rg/web/wg/ws/su/current-
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. Please visit
http://Portal.ncdenr.org,/web/ws1/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 8, C: Failure to perform analytical stormwater monitoring may result in the Division requiring
that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme.
• Sections 8, 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].

COC Permit No. NCG060024

Dear Mr. Price:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
On November 18, 2010, Thomas Ascenzo and Vicki Webb of the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) conducted a
compliance inspection (CEI). The assistance of yourself and Mike Perry, EMS/PSM Coordinator was appreciated
as it facilitated the inspection process.
The following observations were made:
Tyson Foods, Inc is authorized to discharge stormwater from the facility located at Tyson Foods, Inc.,
800 East Main Street, Sanford in Lee County. The permit expires October 31, 2012. The facility
discharges into the receiving waters designated as unnamed tributary to Carrs Creek, waters in the Cape
Fear River Basin.
1. Our review of,your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Manual (SP3) revealed the following:
• The Plan contained a general location map that included outfall locations and drainage
areas. However it is suggested to obtain or create a map with legible marking. It was
extremely difficult to see the locations of the outfalls due to the color of the ink being
yellow and illegible.
• Employee training documented were updated annually. It was indicated that only a select
amount of employee were trained with spill response. We highly recommend that all
employees receive spill response training.
• List of responsible parties for Emergency spill response notification.
• No spills were noted for the 3 year period, suggestion to add documentation to indicate
any spill activity. If none, state that once annually and add it to the manual.
2. Outfalls # 1 was observed to contain slight grease at sampling point, please clean out grease and
properly dispose of same. Trim vegetative growth near outfall to enhance future inspections and
allow for easier sampling.
3. Outfall # 2 was observed no flow was observed.
4. Outfail # 3 had heavy vegetative growth making it extremely difficult to access outfall for
inspection. Maintain area clear of vegetative growth.
Suggestions to add signage designating outfalls on fence to assist personnel not aware of
locations to aid spill response activities. No ` Carolina

`t; "lt'Was-Indicated-that,Outfall #3 was not sampled due to the facility having representative status.
The Division does not have any documentation indicating this. It is noted that Outfall #3 does not
meet the qualifications for representative sampling and must be sampled along with the other
stated outfalls.
7. Review of analytical data revealed Total Settleable Solids (TSS) over benchmark for Outfall (2)
on December 2009. Results from July 2010 indicate that Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) for
Outfall (1) was over benchmark. Please conduct a Tier 1 or Tier 2 investigation to determine the
cause of the reading to be out of range. These investigations must be documented and added to
the SP3 (Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan manual.)
8. Qualitative sampling must conducted two (2) times a year, inspection indicated sampling has
been annually.
9. Attached to the report is the Stormwater Discharge Outfall (SDO) Qualitative Monitoring Report
form. Complete this report and add it to your SP3 manual.

Dear Permittee:
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 2(X)2. 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
Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in
advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find a General Permit Coverage Renewal
Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by March 4, 2002 in order to assure continued
coverage under the gencral permit.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility
without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and
could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
Please note that recent federal lcoislation has extended the "no exposure exclusion" to all operators of industrial
facilities in any of the I I categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except
construction activities). If you feel your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facilty industrial
materials and operations are not exposed to stormwater, you can apply fix the no exposure exclusion. For additional
information contact the Central Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater & General
Permits Unit Web Site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/stormwater.httnl
If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
Rescission Request Form. Mailing instructions are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the
rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding, the permit renewal procedures please contact Joe Albiston of the Raleigh
Regional Office -at 919-571-4700 or Aisha Lau of the Central Office Stormwater Unit at [phone] ext. 578
