They are currently working with their engineer to replace this tank with a double walled tank. Qualitative monitoring was being conducted at the time of the inspection. Requested that Mr. Baucom use a seperate reporting form for each outfall instead of using a single form for all 3 outfalls.Make sure to sign the forms once completed. Make sure all analytical monitoring parameters are sampled. Went over where to sample with Mr. Beane. Samples should be pulled from the end of the outfall pipes, and not from the sediment ponds themself. The new permit requirments were discussed - The TSS limit has dropped due to discharging into a HQW water. There are now 3 Tiers if sample results are over the benchmark values in the permit. If there is no flow in the sampling period, a DMR must still be submitted showing NO -FLOW.

The permit that you refer to also referenced the Certificate of Coverage — NCG 120084 which is based on our erosion and sedimentation control plan for our Landfill expansion project. This plan includes the construction of three sediment basins at our C&D Landfill. We have not begun construction of these basins and it was my misunderstanding that we were to begin monitoring storm water only after these basins were constructed. I state this not to excuse our failure to monitor but to explain that we honestly thought that we were in compliance with the requirements as set -forth in our permit. We have met with Trent Allen from your department and have explained and discussed this misunderstanding with him in great detail. Mr. Allen has been very informative and helpful in thoroughly explaining the situation and the cause for the notice that we received. Moore County takes pride in complying with all requirements as set forth by NCDENR and takes great measures to foster an environmentally compliant organization that realizes the severity of a Notice of Violation. We fully acknowledge that we misunderstood what was required of us and can confirm that we have expeditiously implemented the appropriate management plan to fully comply with the requirements for storm water monitoring.

We met with the county's Public Works Director and county engineer. They explained that this landfill has been in operation since the 1950s and has maintained a permit with the Division of Waste Management and modified it whenever opening a new cell. For whatever reason, Solid Waste realized during this recent permit modification for a new cell that the site did not have coverage under the stormwater permit and is withholding issuance of their landfill permit until we issue ours. According to county personnel, they are still in the construction phase for the new cell and will have two or three basins throughout the entire site once completed. Trent and I explained the conditions of the general permit and relayed that coverage would likely be issued within the next 30 days or so. We have no concerns with issuance of a COC for this facility.

An on -site rain gauge or local rain gauge reading must be recorded. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours. Part 11 Page 2 of 7 Permit No. NCG120000 The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in Table 2. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period 1 and Period 2 sample dates unless monthly monitoring has been instituted under a Tier Two response. Table 2.

Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling results. 2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedence. 3. Identify potential, and select the specific: source controls, operational controls, or physical improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, or to bring concentrations to within the benchmark range. 4. Implement the selected actions within two months of the inspection. 5. Maintain on site a written summary record of each instance of a Tier One response. Include the date and value of the benchmark exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting the inspection, the selected actions, and the date the selected actions were Tier Two Criteria and If: During the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row; Then: The permittee shall: 1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values, or within the benchmark range. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements. 4. Maintain on site a record of the Tier Two response. Part II Page 4 of 7 Permit No. NCG 120000 During the term of this permit, if the sampling results exceed the benchmark value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on more than four occasions, DWQ may: • Require that the permittee increase or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • rescind coverage under the General Permit, and require that the permittee apply for an individual stormwater discharge permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; or • require the permittee to install other stormwater control measures SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified in Table 4. If no stormwater discharge is occurring during the time of the weekly inspection a check to ensure that all sedimentation and erosion controls are being properly implemented will be performed. Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of sedimentation and erosion controls, and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. No analytical tests are required. Qualitative monitoring shall be conducted at least once every seven calendar days, and within 24 hours after any storm event of greater than 0.5 inches of rain per 24 hour period. During stormy periods, or whenever runoff occurs daily, all sedimentation and erosion control facilities shall be inspected daily and immediately before closing operations for the weekend or other holiday. The operator shall keep a record of these qualitative monitoring inspections on site. Uncontrolled releases of mud or muddy water or visible sedimentation found off site shall be recorded with a brief explanation as to the measures taken to prevent future releases as well as any measures taken to clean up the sediment that has left the site. This record shall be made available to DWQ or authorized agent upon request. Part H Page 5 of 7 Permit No. NCG120000 Table 4.

The NOI shall be submitted and a certificate of coverage issued prior to any discharge of stormwater associated with industrial activity that has a point source discharge to the surface waters of the state. Any owner or operator not wishing to be covered or limited by this General Permit may make application for an individual NPDES permit in accordance with NPDES procedures in 15A NCAC 2H .0100, stating the reasons supporting the request. Any application for an individual permit should be made at least 180 days prior to commencement of discharge. This General Permit does not cover activities or discharges covered by an individual NPDES permit until the individual permit has expired or has been revoked. Any person conducting an activity covered by an individual permit but which could be covered by this General Permit may request that the individual permit be revoked and coverage under this General Permit be provided. Facilities submitting NOIs for coverage under this permit, and facilities submitting renewal forms for continued coverage under this permit, prior to establishment or approval of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for pollutant(s) for stormwater discharges (i.e. wet weather flows), may be covered under this permit during its term. For such facilities, continued coverage under the reissuance of this permit is subject to the facility demonstrating that it does not have a reasonable potential to violate applicable water quality standards for such pollutants due to the stormwater discharge(s). For facilities that do have a reasonable potential for violation of applicable water quality standards due to the stormwater discharge(s), the facility shall apply for an individual permit 180 days prior to the expiration of this general permit. Once the individual permit is issued and becomes effective the facility will no longer have coverage under the general permit. Impaired waters scheduled for TMDL development are on North Carolina's 303(d) List and can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/tmd[/General_303d.htm#Downloads. A list of approved TMDLs for the state of North Carolina can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/General—TMDLs.htm. During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activity. Such discharges shall be controlled, limited, and monitored as specified in this permit. Part I Page 1 of 2 Permit No. NCG120000 SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system which has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this General Permit. All stormwater discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this permit. Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization or approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this General Permit shall not cause or contribute to violations of Water Quality Standards. This permit does not relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. Part I Page 2 of 2 Permit No. NCG120000 PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR PERMITTED DISCHARGES SECTION A: FINAL LIMITATIONS AND CONTROLS FOR STORMWATER DISCHARGES During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater.

Prior to commencement of land disturbing activities, the permittee shall submit for approval a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan (plan) to the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section, (or an approved local program) pursuant to the requirements of NC G.S. 113A- 54.1 and in conformity with the rules adopted by the Sedimentation and Erosion Control Commission. 2. The permittee shall implement the plan, which has been approved by the approval authority. The approved plan is considered a requirement or condition of this general permit. Deviation from the approved plan, or approved amendment to the plan, shall constitute a violation of the terms and conditions of this general permit. A signed copy of the approved plan shall be maintained on the site at all times. Prior to constructing or operating a landfill the permittee shall obtain a permit for a sanitary landfill from the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Waste Management, pursuant to the requirements of NC G.S. 130A - 294 and in conformity with the rules adopted in 15A North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 13B Section .0500 or Section .1600. The landfill permit is considered a requirement or condition of this general permit. Deviation from the landfill permit, or approved amendment or revision of the landfill permit, shall constitute a violation of the terms and conditions of this general permit. A signed copy of the landfill permit shall be maintained on the site at all times. 4. Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a locking mechanism) and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. Part 11 Page 1 of 7 Patterson, Robert From: Lawyer, Mike Sent: Wednesday, December 23, 2009 8:57 AM To: Patterson, Robert Cc: Henson, Belinda; Allen, Trent Subject: RE: NCG120084 - Moore County Construction S Demolition Landfill Robert, Trent Allen and I conducted a site visit for the subject facility yesterday. We met with the county's Public Works Director and county engineer. They explained that this landfill has been in operation since the 1950s and has maintained a permit with the Division of Waste Management and modified it whenever opening a new cell. For whatever reason, Solid Waste realized during this recent permit modification for a new cell that the site did not have coverage under the stormwater permit and is withholding issuance of their landfill permit until we issue ours. According to county personnel, they are still in the construction phase for the new cell and will have two or three basins throughout the entire site once completed. Trent and I explained the conditions of the general permit and relayed that coverage would likely be issued within the next 30 days or so. We have no concerns with issuance of a COC for this facility.
