Inspection Summary:
On September 18, 2019 this facility was inspected for compliance. I met with Christopher Flemming and Jerry McMurray on
site. During the inspection, the following items were noted:
1) The potential for additional outfalls exists in the area north of the Pump/Storage area. The permittee is directed to evaluate
the additional outfall locations and modify the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and monitoring schedule accordingly.
2) At the Henkel warehouse (near outfall 3), liquid materials were observed outside of the containment area. The permittee is
directed to relocate the liquid materials to a location where secondary containment is provided.
3) The secondary containment berm was cut in the area near building 123. The permittee is directed to evaluate the
effectiveness and potential for modifications to the secondary containment area.
4) The permittee is directed to evaluate the effectiveness and need for repair at the hazardous chemical secondary
containment structure.
5) The secondary containment at the flammables shed was observed to be damaged in various locations. The permittee is
directed to repair all damages to the secondary containment and evaluate the structure for effectiveness.
6) The annual non-stormwater discharge evaluation had not been documented at the time of the inspection. the permittee is
directed to begin annual non-stormwater discharges as required by the permit.
Please give the above items your immediate attention.
