Dear Stormwater Enforcement Group:
J.C. Steele & Sons, Inc. is committed to following the requirements set forth in our stormwater permits by the Division of
Water Quality. This letter is to inform you that for our Permit NCS000018 Year 3 Period 1, and Permit NCG030000
Certificate of coverage NCG030255 Period 1, We experienced no Storm event that we could collect our stormwater
samples. I have enclosed copies of our rain gauge observation sheets for the months in question. Although we did
receive a substantial amount of rainfall the majority of rainfall occurred on weekends and extended into the work week.
This did not provide the 72 hours of separation needed to perform sampling. Please be advised that we are continually
striving to abide by all conditions of our Stormwater Permits.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact Curtis Daniels of J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. at (704) 768-3230 or (704)
872-3681 Ext. 151.

Monthly sampling (instead of semi-annual) must begin with the second consecutive benchmark exceedance for the same parameter at the same outfall.
z For sampling periods with no discharge at any single outfall, you must still submit this discharge monitoring report with a checkmark here.
3The total precipitation must be recorded using data from an on -site rain gauge. Unattended sites may be eligible for a waiver of the rain gauge requirement.
" See General Permit, Table 3 identifying the especially sensitive receiving water classifications where the more protective benchmark applies.
s Total Toxic Organics sampling is applicable only for those facilities which perform metal finishing operations, manufacture semiconductors, manufacture
electronic crystals, or manufacture cathode ray tubes. For purposes of this permit the definition of Total Toxic Organics is that definition contained in the EPA
Effluent Guidelines for the facility subject to the requirement to sample (for metal finishing use the definition as found in 40 CFR 433.11; for semiconductor
manufacture use the definition as found in 40 CFR 469.12; for electronic crystal manufacture use the definition as found in 40 CFR 469.22; and for cathode ray
tube manufacture use the definition found in 40 CFR 469.31).
* Outfall 1 is representative of Outfall 2 (sample is taken at outfall 1) and Outfall 3 is representative of Outfall 3a (sample is taken at outfall 3).
Permit Date: 11/1/2018-5/31/2021 SWU-245, last revised 10/25/2012

Facilities that incorporate a solvent management plan into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan may so certify, and the requirement for TTO monitoring
may be waived. The solvent management plan shall include a list of the total toxic organic compounds used and the other elements listed in the General
Permit. For those facilities electing to employ the TTO monitoring waiver, the discharger shall sign the following certification statement:
"Based upon my inquiry of the person or persons directly responsible for managing compliance with the permit monitoring requirement for total toxic organics
(70), 1 certify that to the best of my knowledge and belief, no dumping of concentrated toxic organics into the stormwater or areas which are exposed to rainfall or
stormwater runoff has occurred since filing the last discharge monitoring report. I further certify that this facility is implementing the all the provisions of the
solvent management plan included in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan."
** Note: J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. does not meet the requirements set forth in the definitions on page 1 for the reporting of Total Toxic Organics.
