The No -Exposure Certifications no longer will have an expiration date. Previously your no -exposure exclusion had to be re -certified with the Division every 5 years. This will no longer be required. Please disregard the expiration date on your original certification. However, in order to assure that your facility stays in compliance with,all of the conditions in the no -exposure certification, you must self re -certify your facility at least annually. Please F�a the attachment for information on self re -certification. If you. are waiting for a response from the Division for a renewal certification you already submitted, please consider this letter the Division's approval for renewing your No -Exposure exclusion. Please note that tf ;.:• does not change your obligation to maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no -exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwaterdischarge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. State statute provides for fines of up to $25,000 per day for un-permitted discharges.

Facility/Site Location Information Federal law at 40 CFR Part 122126 prohibits point source discharges of storm water associated with industrial activity to waters of the U.S. without a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. However, NPDES permit coverage is not required for discharges of storm water associated with industrial activities identified at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(i)- (ix) and (xi) if the discharger can certify that a condition of "no exposure" exists at the Industrial facility or site. Storm water discharges from construction activities identified in 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(x) and (b)(15) are not eligible for the no exposure exclusion. Obtaining and Maintaining the No Exposure Exclusion This form is used to certify that a condition of no exposure exists at the industrial facility or site described herein. This certification is only applicable in jurisdictions where EPA is the NPDES permitting authority and must be re -submitted at least once every five years. The industrial facility operator must maintain a condition of no exposure at its facility or site in order for the no exposure exclusion to remain applicable. If conditions change resulting in the exposure of materials and activities to storm water, the facility operator must obtain coverage under an NPDES storm water permit immediately. Where to Fife the No Exposure Certification Form Maii the completed no exposure certification form to: Storm Water No Exposure Certification (4203) USEPA 401 M Street, SW Washington, D.C. 20460 Completing the Form You must type or print, using uppercase letters, in appropriate areas only. Enter only one character per space (i.e., between the marks). Abbreviate if necessary to stay within the number of characters allowed for each item. Use one space for breaks between words. Cne form must be completed for each facility or site for which you are seeking to certify a condition of no exposure. Additional guidance on completing this form can be accessed through EPA's web site at www.epa.gov/owm/sw. Please make sure you have addressed all appllcable questions and have made a photocopy for your records before sending the completed form to the above address. Section A. Facility Operator Information 1. Provide the legal name of the person, firm, public organization, or any other entity that operates the facility or site described in this certification. The name of the operator may or may not be the same as the name of the facility. The operator is the legal entity that controls the facility's operation, rather than the plant or site manager. 2. Provide the telephone number of the facility operator. 3. Provide the mailing address of the operator (P.O. Box numbers may be used). Include the city, state, and zip code. All correspondence will be sent to this address. 1. Enter the official or legal name of the facility or site. 2. Enter the complete street address (if no street address exists, provide a geographic description [e.g., Intersection of Routes 9 and 55]), city, county, state, and zip code. Do not use a P.O. Box number. 3. Indicate whether the facility is located on Indian Lands. 4. Indicate whether the industrial facility is operated by a department or agency of the Federal Government (see also Section 313 of the Clean Water Act). 5. Enter the latitude and longitude of the approximate center of the facility or site in degrees/minutes/seconds. Latitude and longitude can be obtained from United States Geological Survey (USES) quadrangle or topographic maps, by calling 1-(888) ASK-USGS, or by accessing EPA's web site at http://www.apa.gov/owm/swriindustryAndex.htm and selecting Latitude and Longitude Finders under the Resources/Permit section. Latitude and longitude for a facility in decimal form must be converted to degrees (1), minutes ('), and seconds (") for proper entry on the certification form. To convert decimal latitude or longitude to degrees/minutes/seconds, follow the steps in the following example. Example: Convert decimal latitude 45.1234567 to degrees (°), minutes and seconds ("). a) The numbers to the left of the decimal point are the degrees: 45°. b) To obtain minutes, multiply the first four numbers to the right of the decimal paint by 0.006: 1234 x 0.006 = 7.404. c) The numbers to the left of the decimal point in the result obtained In (b) are the minutes: 7'. d) To obtain seconds, multiply the remaining three numbers to the right of the decimal from the result obtained in (b) by 0.06: 404 x 0.06 = 24.24. Since the numbers to the right of the decimal point are not used, the result is 24". e) The conversion for 45.1234567 = 451 7' 24". 6. Indicate whether the facility was previously covered under an NPDES storm water permit. If so, include the permit number. 7. Enter the 4-digit SIC code which identifies the facility's primary activity, and second 4-digit SIC code identifying the facility's secondary activity, if applicable. SIC codes can be obtained from the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, 1987. 8. Enter the total size of the site associated with industrial activity in acres. Acreage may be determined by dividing square footage by 43,560, as demonstrated in the following example. Example: Convert 54,450 ft2 to acres Divide 54,450 ft2 by 43,560 square feet per acre: 54,450 ft2 + 43,560 ft2/acre = 1.25 acres. 9. Check "Yes" or "No" as appropriate to indicate whether you have paved or roofed over a formerly exposed, pervious area (i.e., lawn, meadow, dirt or gravel road/parking tot) in order to qualify for no exposure. If yes, also indicate approximately how much area was paved or roofed over and is now impervious area.

Corroborating our earlier conversation, I have the following guidance on the three topics you raised. 1. Our September 3, 2010 notification letter of rescission of No Exposure Exclusion from permitting. a. Scott's facility in Monroe is currently covered under Certificate of Coverage NCG030511, as seems appropriate for the facility as you described it. b. We have rescinded the No Exposure Exclusion, NCGNE0148, as per your request. This also seems appropriate for the site conditions, as we discussed today. The second paragraph of our September 3, 2010 notification letter misses the mark with respect to the current permitting status of your site. At the time we produced the notification letter, we missed the point that while we did indeed rescind your coverage under NCGNE0148, your site still had continuing coverage under NCG030511. The second paragraph is pointed at the much more common circumstance of a facility applying for a rescission, and without any continuing regulatory obligation under the NPDES stormwater permitting program. This is not the case for Scott Health and Safety. I'm sorry for our oversight, and your resulting confusion. In summary, you are properly permitted under NCG030511, and the second paragraph in the notification letter should be understood as part of a mass mailing letter template that does not apply to your site under its current circumstances. You also advised me that you are not contemplating a sale of the facility, and so again, the third paragraph of the notification letter should be understood as standard template language not applying to your site under its immediate circumstances. 2. Analytical sampling results showing a high hit for TSS. a. You asked me about submitting an atypical stormwater sampling result encountered in the July - December 2010 sampling event; a T55 value of 925 mg/L. b. Despite your execution of a Tier 1 walk -around, you were not able to conclusively identify the source of the benchmark exceedance. You supposed that potential causes may have been: poor sampling technique in that the third party sampler reported sampling from a flow that was so shallow that the act of sampling stirred up the bottom sediments in the flow channel; the extended preceding dry period may have exacerbated the first flush delivery of accumulated pollutants; an adjacent grassed area was very dry and may have lost some sediment compared to a fully vegetated condition; very recent grass clippings may have entered the discharge flow, thereby raising the TSS. c, Three other outfalls sampled in the same rain event had TSS values in the range of 30 mg/L to 60 mg/L. There is no particular reason to suspect unusual exposure or risk in this sub -drainage area, although the facility receiving docks are in this sub -drainage area. d. I advised you to go ahead and submit the 925 mg/L result, with an explanation of your suspicions as to the possible causes, and the inconclusive results of your Tier 1 walk -around. We talked about alternative strategies, but it seems to me this is the best approach. The permit obligates you to submit the first valid sampling results during the monitoring period. For you own management purposes, you may wish to re -sample just the one outfall forjust TSS — as an investigation into whether there really is a continuing source, or whether this really is a case of poor sampling conditions leading to poor sampling technique, but you are not required to accomplish this extra sampling under your permit.

MINING PERMIT EXPIRATION DATE: August 27, 2020 3. (1pportunities to discontinue TTO analyses in the future. a. You reported TTO results within the benchmark values, i.e. < 1 mg/L. b. You reported that the only solvent present on site is IPA, perhaps 2S gallons on site today, and perhaps 110 gallons on site in a year. c. I advised that the permit text itself provides that you can be excused from continuing the TTO analyses upon petition to DWQ and upon the development and implementation of a solvent management plan for all of your on -site solvents (per your report, just the IPA in your case.) I offered the opinion that for such a small quantity, and for just the one solvent, an approved Solvent Management Plan would require fairly simple documentation. d. We further discussed the small quantities involved, and I suggested that perhaps we might consider that the small quantities involved would allow us to waive the TTO analyses based on a de minimis argument, rather than based on the strict wording in the permit text requiring a Solvent Management Plan. I've reconsidered that perspective, and I now believe that the clearest path forward would be for you to be excused from TTO only upon the development of the required Solvent Management Plan, Jim, please contact me with any questions.

Page 2 In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, hereinafter referred to as the Department, and in conformity with the approved Reclamation Plan attached to and incorporated as part of this permit, provisions must be made for the protection of the surrounding environment and for reclamation of the land and water affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is expressly conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved Reclamation Plan. However, completed performance of the approved Reclamation Plan is a separable obligation, secured by the bond or other security on file with the Department, and may survive the expiration, revocation or suspension of this permit. This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception: If another operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the permittee from the duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his permit and by the Mining Act with reference to the permitted operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the successor operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference to reclamation of the affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security. In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's successor is not complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing to achieve the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or suspend the permit, or its intent to modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed modification, revocation or suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in addition to the above, the Department may institute other enforcement procedures authorized by law. Definitions Wherever used or referred to in this permit, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms shall have the same meaning as supplied by the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-49. Expiration Date This permiL.s6l be effective from the date of its issuance until August 27, 2020. Conditions This permit shall be subject to the provisions of the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-46, et. seq., and to the following conditions and limitations: OPERATING CONDITIONS: A. Any wastewater processing or mine dewatering shall be in accordance with the permitting requirements and rules promulgated by the N.C. Environmental Management Commission.

Sullins Director September 3, 2010 Dee Freeman Secretary Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit Certificate of Coverage Number NCGNE0148 Scott Health and Safety Union County v On 8/23/2010, the Division of Water Quality received your request to rescind your coverage under Certificate of Coverage Number NCGNEO148. In accordance with your request, Certificate of Coverage Number NCGNEO148 is rescinded effective immediately. . Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit will subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. It is the intention of DWQ that enforcement proceedings will occur for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing pennit coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for. and receive a new NPDES permit. , If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inforni the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage. If you have questions about this matter, please contact Brian Lowther at (919) 807-6368, or the Water Quality staff in our Mooresville Regional Office at NPDES SW. Sincerely, for Coleen 14.
