Inspection Summary:
On November 18, 2020, this facility was inspected for compliance. I met with Mario Carter and Ashley Curry for the
inspection. During the inspection, no compliance issues were found. The SWPPP was complete and up-to-date. The facility
is in Tier 3 for Zinc, and all requirements were met. Both outfalls were observed and found to be in good condition.
This inspection was conducted in part to assess compliance for the permit renewal. Changes in the draft permit were
reviewed with Mr. Carter and Ms. Curry to remind them of changing conditions, especially with regards to the Zinc
benchmark. I noted no concerns during the inspection, and the draft permit can be issued as written.
