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: http://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 is 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.

H
• There are currently 19 active general permits. Perm it. 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 5 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 pennittee 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 to
the Division of Water Quality along with all appropriate information.
o Proper Operation and Maintenance is a requirement of the permit.

Dear Mr. Dowd:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on August 1, 2005
we are forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage to discharge under the subject
state -- NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North
Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently
amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to
the Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or
revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
Please be aware that you must have a completed Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
on file at your facility before you begin industrial activities. Part 11, Section A of your permit
describes the requirements for your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan in detail.
1
All of the scrap metal facilities that have a Certificate of Coverage under NCO200000 are
covered under one general permit that has a five-year term. This permit was originally issued on
November 1, 2000 and will expire on October 31, 2005. A new general permit will be issued
after October 31, and all of the facilities that are covered under this permit will have the option to
either renew or rescind their permit coverage. However, since your permit coverage is being
issued only a few months before the general permit expiration date, we will assume that you
wish to be renewed. You will automatically receive a copy of the new general permit when it is
issued.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land
Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other federal or local governmental permit that
may be required.

Jonathan,
The NOI indicated that elements for SWPPP and Spill Response Plan had not been
completed and/or are not present. I have no problem with issuance, but it should
be noted that owner should know that site plan maps and all other required permit
elements must be completed and on file before starting operations at "New"
facilities. Jonathan Diggs wrote:
Hey Ricky - I got an NOI for a stormwater permit in the Fayetteville Region.
It's in Montgomery County and it's for a proposed scrap metal recycling
facility. Do you have any concerns with issuing the permit? I attached the
NOI for you to review, if you want. Thanks for your help and let me know if
you have any questions. JD

Dear Mr. Dowd:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on August 1, 2005
we are forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage to discharge under the subject
state -- NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North
Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently
amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to
the Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or
revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
Please be aware that you must have a completed Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
on file at your facility before you begin industrial activities. Part II, Section A of your permit
describes the requirements for your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan in detail.
All of the scrap metal facilities that have a Certificate of Coverage under NCG200000 are
covered under one general permit that has a five-year term. This permit was originally issued on
November 1, 2000 and will expire on October 31, 2005. A new general permit will be issued
after October 31, and all of the facilities that are covered under this permit will have the option to
either renew or rescind their permit coverage. However, since your permit coverage is being
issued only a few months before the general permit expiration date, we will assume that you
wish to be renewed. You will automatically receive a copy of the new general permit when it is
issued.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land
Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other federal or local governmental permit that
may be required.

I (B)
Oil and gasoline are drained from vehicles into metallic containers and stored on
gravel under sheds in two different locations. Vehicles are placed on a rack and drained
before crushing. The gasoline is filtered, recycled, and consumed in equipment and
vehicles we use in our business. The waste oil will be used in a clean burning oil heating
system.
Dust is controlled by a combination of # S Gravel -surge and Crush and Run
applied to the roadways.
(D)
There have been no significant spills or leaks since we opened.

2 (A)
We are currently in the process of building a shed over the drain rack and the
week of the fourth of July we plan to concrete the floor under the rack.
(13)
We maintain our bulk liquid storage to amounts below the need for secondary
containment devices. We store the liquid in metallic drums of 55 gallons or less so if
there is some potential problem only one drums worth could leak.
(C)
We maintain a vegetative filter strip on both sides of detention ditches. Also, a
chain link fence is present on the inside of the ditches to retain away debris. The ditches
go to retention ponds with vegetative strips on the outside of them.

3) Spill Prevention and Response Plan
The potential pollutant sources are oil, gasoline, and antifreeze stored in metallic
containers at the draining rack and at two separate sheds on the yard and a fuel tank on a
mobile truck. The owner, loader operator, the track -hoe operator and the small-scale
operator are the spill responders.

4) The owner will personally walk the facility after every storm to inspect for potential
problems. At the end of every workday each area is policed up and secured.
