Summary of Discussion
Dan,
It was a pleasure meeting you, Lisa Manning, Steve Jenkins and Wayne Merritt yesterday. It was worth the trip to see this
site along with one other and to assist with stormwater issues.
Below is the form for the NPDES application for exclusion from a Stormwater Permit based on NO EXPOSURE.
https://fi les.nc.govincdeglEnergy%20Mineral%20and%20Land%20ResourcesIStormwater/N PDES%20General%20Permi
ts/NCGNE-NOI-20160928-DEMLR-SW odf
If Low & Bonar would like to pursue this avenue, which I think from the site visit might certainly be available, then you
can use this form to see if applicable. After submission of the application, DEMLR (usually regional staff) will verify and
approve the application before the exclusion is effective. At that point, Low & Bonar Stormwater permit would be
rescinded. They would still have to abide by the pending Waste (process) water permit.
Let me know if you have any questions about this part of the discussion. I will follow up on the other questions later.

,CAUTION: External email. Do not click links or open attachments unless verified. Send all suspicious email as an attachment to

Mr. Riddle and Ms. Kucken:
Thank you for your assistance yesterday at the Low & Bonar Inc. facility in Enka, NC (NCS000179).

Below are the points we discussed:
l . It was proposed during our discussion that no stormwater per se goes into the East Ditch; it
is all wastewater (approximately 15,500 gallons per day) that is occasionally co -mingled with
stormwater. Therefore, it may be appropriate to remove SDO-2 from stormwater permitting and
sampling requirements.
2. Low & Bonar may be eligible for a 'non -exposure' exemption for the entire facility. No
Low & Bonar raw materials or products are stored outside, thus none are in an 'uncovered'
condition. Very little uncovered material is on the Low & Bonar site, one tenant - Wolseley
Industries - has uncovered metal piping that is stored temporarily before being shipped to
clients. This material could easily be covered or otherwise protected from precipitation.
3. If the 'non -exposure' classification is not applicable, the sites of SDO-2 (the East Side at
Ditch) and SDO-i (West Side at Hominy Creek) should be moved to within the L&B property
boundaries.
4. Currently, SDO-2 (East Ditch) sampling point is at the discharge into an un-named
tributary to Hominy Creek and outside of the L&B property. We propose that the sampling point be
moved about 50 feet upstream in the Flood Gate (see attached Exhibits 1-4).
5. Currently, SDO-i ( West Ditch) sampling point is at the discharge into Hominy Creek on
the neighboring Fletcher Partners Property (see attached map). We propose that the sampling
point be moved about 1,850 feet upstream to Manhole 17; which is about 120 feet upstream of the
property boundary.
6. Samples collected on December 5 from all four locations will be sent to your office as soon
as the laboratory report is available. This report will demonstrate how the current and proposed
new locations for stormwater sampling are comparable, and will actually be a more accurate picture
of L&B's actual stormwater discharges (with less influences from other properties). This sampling
report is also the first semi-annual sampling report for 2018.
7. Enka Partners of Asheville, LLC (referred to as Fletcher Partners, Inc) (NOTE: Both are
located at ioQ1 Hendersonville Road Asheville, NC 288og and are owned by the same entities)
property is influencing Low & Bonar's SDO-1 stormwater discharge. It seems - without any
empirical data - that abandoned stormwater piping on the Fletcher Partners property is transferring
sediment from the surface or from damaged subterranean piping to the main stormwater discharge
piping. We request that Fletcher Partners be issued a Construction Stormwater Permit
(NCGol0000) as per NCGS 143-215.1. It is our opinion, based upon the approximately 150 piles of
dirt that have been deposited upon the Fletcher Partners property, that construction has begun (see
aerial image of the site with individual property owners noted).
8. American Recycling(http://www.amreUclingofvvnc.com/) property is influencing Low &
Bonar's SDO-2 stormwater discharge. Recently, American Recycling had a hydraulic oil leak on
pavement that discharged through the Flood Gate on the Low & Bonar property and hence to the
un-named tributary to Hominy Creek. Low & Bonar staff responded to prevent the oil from
reaching Hominy Creek and notified DEQ appropriately. We request that American Recycling be
issued a Stormwater Permit with enforceable benchmark limits for discharges to the ditch due north
of their property - not to Low & Bonar property.
Ms. Kucken - We really appreciate your high quality work standard and professionalism. Despite your impending retirement
you arranged for Mr. Riddle to become familiar with the Low & Bonar site AND you conducted a site survey on a very cold and
windy day on a snow-covered site. Its been nice working with you, we will miss your input.
Mr. Riddle - Thank you for making time to travel five hours to learn about our site and our stormwater issues. We look forward
to working with you on our stormwater permit renewal and/or devising a method by which L&B might be able to achieve a'non-

exposure' exemption. Please contact Steve Jenkins at Steve.Jenkins(@LowandBonar.com or at 828-665-'tg4, with any questions
or information requests.

Hi, Linda,
I'll give you a call this week to catch up on everything
I am still the person who's supposed to be working on the SGL individual renewal, but 1 haven't been able to get to
it. We have 12 general permits expiring this year, and our staff (still a little short-handed) has to focus on those until we
get some more resources (coming soon). We have a new engineer joining us in early March, and we even hired Bradley
as a temp (3 days a week) to help us out with other individual renewals! I could possibly do a site visit in March, but I
don't know how soon after I'll be able to draft the permit. It might be a good visit for our new hire to go along on,
though, so we'll keep that in mind. Mid -march is probably the better time for me to get out of the office.
I've also copied Rick Riddle on the info about Low and Bonar. I'm not sure he's been able to pick that one up,
either. Individual renewals have fallen pretty low in priority, especially since the general permit renewals happening
along with all the electronic reporting and e-DMR prep. I'll let him give you a status.
Speak to you soon,

Hi Bethany,
The wastewater SGL permit was issued, it is attached. Not sure if you got it or not. I am
looking to go to SGL in March, do you still want to come up? The new DEMLR guy here in

ARO, Isaiah Reed has been to the site and talked with me. I told him if he sends
anything out for his visit to let me know, but that you and I were looking to go there.
I guess the first question is do you think you will still be the person doing the SGL
NCS000009 draft?
I ask because I needed to be involved in the Low and Bonar NCS000179 draft and have
not been engaged yet, but I understand that there is new guy in your group (something
Riddle) that has been working on that one. Low and Bonar is another complex comingle
site, I sent you an email about it around June 6, 2017 and July 5, 2017. I need to at
least see that draft, as Low and Bonar are under review by us now too. Derek Denerd
was assigned that one in our group, he just picked it up. He is leaning towards an
Individual instead of a General at first glance.
Let's chat on the phone when you get a chance. I have some other things with the
mines I need to fill you in on.
Have a nice weekend,

Hi Bethany,
Not sure if you are working on the Bonar permit renewal (NCS000179) but if you are
please hold tight before issuing it and perhaps if I could have a look at the draft.
I have dealt with this site briefly from a WW and a SW perspective, in the past. I need to
review this facility from a WW point of view and refresh my memory on their WW (and
SW), we may have some comingling. There may be loose ends that need to be tied up
and/or acknowledged in their permit.

I have spoken with Darlene briefly about this site and I told her I will get with her when
she returns in two weeks. Also, I believe, based on Susan Wilsons inspection, (way back
when 2008) the site was noncompliant. It is a very complex site, old old industrial site.

Water (Duality Reglonal Operations
In your email (attached) you mentioned Low & Bonar's 2013 rescission of their General NC DEQ permit for industrial
wastewater. I cannot, nor can the new site manager understand the circumstances that lead to this decision. I have to
believe that it was a total misunderstanding of what the permit was. It could have been it was associated with the old
Waste Water Treatment Plant that served this site many years ago.
Low & Bonar is not the same company that existed in 2013. There was a complete regime change that occurred in 2014
starting with a new CEO (London) in August 2014. The changes also affected Asheville's on -site personnel. None of the
Bonar personnel that were part of the inspection and request for the Waste Water Permit to be rescinded (Including the
President/Site Manager) are still employed by the company.
To explain how we have come full circle back to the point of interest, The Waste Water Permit, Low & Bonar has
mandated a program entitled "Project Planet" where Business Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility are a must for
all its manufacturing facilities globally. Part of this initiative is ISO 14001. As you may know ISO 14001 goes beyond
compliance and is the catalyst for continual improvement to processes and procedures to reduce pollution and improve
efficiencies.
I received funding for the ISO 14001 initiative in December 2016. This enabled me to hire outside consultants to
conduct an independent analysis/audit of our environmental compliance obligations to fulfill § 6.1.3 of ISO 14001:2015
requirements. This process was the gateway to a facility -wide environmental evaluation. Ultimately, we have
conducted a re-evaluation the basis of need, the monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements for all of our
environmental permits.
The Compliance Obligations audit process consumed the first four months of 2017. As we began realizing that we had
storm water issues, I reached out to Alison Davidson as she was with NCDEQ DEACS in February. I knew she could place
us in contact with the correct personnel to help us resolve our problems. It is unfortunate that I did not realize that
storm water was broken into two entities now. In a previous job I just dealt with one person, Michael Parker, out of the
Mooresville office.
301'1 0) O' 'q NcJ -aol-1 J- v114$

Upon completion of the Compliance Obligations Audit, we realized we had three areas that needed attention. 1)
stormwater (which with the revelation that waste water discharge was different, we added the third category.) 2)
POTW sewerage wastewater, and 3) surface wastewater areas. Low and Bonar chose to address those deficiencies in
that order. To date, we have completed NC DEQ stormwater inspection by Darlene Kucken, and the Metropolitan
Sewerage District (MSD) wastewater permit renewal. We are now reaching out to you to address or readdress our
surface wastewater issues with your office.
The following points address questions in your email.
1. Water Conduits
Low and Bonar conducted four recent studies of wastewater and stormwater sources to determine volumes and
pollutant concentrations. Those studies are described below.
ISO 14001-- Compliance Obligations
This clause required us to look at all our activities including effluent management. During this process, Low &
Bonar initial engineering estimates were that 28,848 to 54,781 gallons of wastewater from various processes are
discharged to the East Ditch conveyance to Hominy Creek. Table 1 lists those preliminary estimates of effluent
sources and volumes. This was our first concrete indication that something was amiss from data in our files.
The ISO study revealed that cooling tower blowdowns are co -mingled with stormwater discharges to the East
Ditch, see Figure 1.
b. ISO 14001— On -site Audit
The extension office of Georgia Tech conducted an ISO 14001 preliminary audit of Low & Bonar in May 2017.
That audit reinforced the water issues and concerns described by our consultant.
c. Metropolitan Sewerage District (MSD) Wastewater Permit Renewal
Low & Bonar completed its wastewater discharge permit renewal to MSD in May 2017. This renewal provided a
sharper focus on all wastewater effluents by differentiating between wastewater treatment plant effluents and
surface water discharges. The MSD permit renewal estimates wastewater to range from 18,850 to 21,370
gallons per day. Table 2 lists those updated effluent sources and volumes. Note, those values are in part
engineering judgements; they are not data from flow measuring devices.
d. Stormwater Inspection
NC DEQstormwater staff conducted an inspection in May 2017.
Our evaluations show that Low & Bonar does discharge to Hominy Creek the following:
a. Non -Contact Cooling Waters
b. Atmospheric Cooling Systems Condensates
C. Blowdown Wastewaters
d. Exempt Stormwaters
e. Similar wastewaters
2. Wastewater Piping Video
I do not have any videos of our discharges.

3. Site/Process Map of Wastewater Discharge Sources
Figure 1 is a Site Map of Wastewater Discharge Sources. This is a recent upgrade of an older figure of stormwater
collection systems. Figure 1 shows individual sources and provides discharge destinations and volumes. Table 3 lists
those wastewater sources and volumes ranging from 24,368 to 34,581 gallons per day. Table 3 is not complete; our
facility engineering department has provided estimates of most of the wastewater discharges to the East Ditch and then
to Hominy Creek. However, these are estimates; they are not the definitive measurements that flow measuring devices
would provide. Tables 1, 2, and 3 do provide some continuity; internally, we continue to discuss the actual disposition of
some wastewater streams.
4. Stormwater Sampling/Discharge Data
Stormwater Discharge Monitoring Reports for 2015 and 2016 are included in Attachment A. These reports show that
comingled stormwater and wastewater steams in the East Ditch conveyance to Hominy Creek comply with all
stormwater effluents limits and with the Stormwater Permit (NCS000179) effluent limits for Chemical Oxygen Demand
(COD) and pH.
S. Annual Stormwater Certification Statement
Attached with the Monitoring reports is a certification statement table ... Bart Austin was the President and Site
Manager during this time. After the full scope regime change, I was uncertain to the validity of what had been
presented to me regarding non process discharges. I therefore elected to not certify the discharges after August 6, 2014
until I could have a comprehensive evaluation done of our storm water situation. My first year here, I took at face value
what I had been told by Bonar personnel ... the ones who ask you for the recession.
Please contact me to request any other data necessary prior to your site inspection. We are ready to accommodate
your schedule for this inspection.
The ISO 14001 certification process has been very instructive and illuminating for Low & Bonar staff. We have found
that'the process does indeed go beyond compliance and is the catalyst for continual improvement to processes and
procedures to reduce pollution and improve efficiencies.
Low & Bonar intends to comply with all State and Federal discharge limitations. Ultimately, we believe that an individual
NPDES wastewater permit is appropriate for our site.

Dear Sir or Madam:
Due to the extensive extreme drought period for our region, we are delaying our 2nd
half of 2016 sampling schedule until the 1st quarter of 2017, when hopefully we will
have a more favorable weather pattern. Also note, that when precipitation patterns
occurred during this period which produced enough rain to sample, our staff members
who are responsible for sample collection could not be on site to collect them. Our plan
is to obtain 3 samplings for the 2017 year, one for the makeup and two for normal
permit requirements.
Please note we are still operating under our November 1, 2009 — October 31, 2014
permit parameters while we await our renewal permit.
In checking the Permit Tracking Software we see that it was received and entered into
your data base during April of 2014 and indications are it is in review. While we are still

Hello Steve,
I understand you are now the Environmental Manager for Bonar. I inspected
the Enka site in 2013 when Jeremy Nauert was the Environmental Manager.
Dan March was acting consultant at that time.
The Enka site has come to my attention again, primarily concerning
wastewater questions but also stormwater questions. These questions relate
to the complexity of this site and the conduits of water; stormwater (SW),
wastewater (WW), comingled (SW/WW), waterbodies, etc. At my inspection
on September 4, 2013, I was informed by Mr. March and Bonar personnel
that it had been determined all conduits of water carrying any type of
wastewater flowed to the lift station and were discharged to Metropolitan
Sewage District (MSD). The WW permit (NCG500608) rescission request
followed and then was granted based on this information. Furthermore, an
ongoing annual Certification as required by your Stormwater Permit (permit
#NCS000179, Part II, Section A 1. e.) remains in effect.
Please submit to me the final study report that determined the conduits of
water at the Enka facility, including any video recording of those conduits
and an up to date map delineating all conduits of water. Also submit the last
two years of sampling data from the Enka site and most recent signed
Certification as required under SW permit (NCS000179; Sampling - Part II
Section B, Certification - Part II, Section A 1. e.). Once I have received these
documents we can arrange an onsite meeting to further discuss.
Thank you,
