Section 1. Facility Activities and Process:
Bridgestone Americas Tire Operation, LLC (BATO) manufactures rubber for tire and
inner tube production. All manufacturing takes place inside the facility, and the solvent
unloading and storage areas, process oil unloading area, and process oil and lube oil
storage areas are covered and diked. All onsite generators have doubled wall fuel
containment tanks, and all vehicle maintenance takes place in a building (used oil is
recycled on site).
The BATO-Wilson Facility is located on an approximate 400-acre parcel northeast of the
City of Wilson. Plant access is via a perimeter -paved roadway (Firestone Parkway),
which intersects N.C. Highway 1328 near U.S. Highway 301. Interior plant roads and
parking areas are paved or gravel.
Passenger car radial tires are manufactured at the plant. Raw rubber, carbon black,
process oils, pigments (rubber chemicals) and associated fiber and steel belt materials are
mixed, formed and molded into vehicle tires. The facility includes approximately
1,909,000 W of production floor area; 738,000 W of warehouse; 32,500 fe of office floor
area; and contiguous asphalt or concrete pavement. The facility is served by rail located
Page 1 of 9

south of the plant. Individual rail spur lines serve the carbon black and silica unloading
area, the process oil unloading area, and the receiving building. Raw materials including
rubber, carbon black, silica, process oils, and the associated bulk, drummed or bagged
chemicals used in the manufacturing process are delivered by rail and/or truck to the
Receiving Building.
The plant and warehouse underwent several expansions between 2016 and 2020 and
future extrusion and mixing expansions will occur in the future to increase production
capacity.
Zinc oxide and other zinc compounds are managed in the East Drainage Area. All
handling, including unloading of zinc oxide and other zinc compounds, are done inside
the mixing building. The facility utilizes zinc oxide in 2,500-pound sacks and
occasionally 50-pound bags. All baghouse equipment that collects zinc compound dust is
regularly inspected for proper operation and promptly repaired as needed. All empty
waste zinc oxide and other zinc compound bags are disposed of in an enclosed compact
container, then these packages are covered with plastic to the temporally storage area
until departure for recycle. Stormwater drains outside mixing area covered with hay bales
that are replaced every other month. The wax/lube oil storage tanks are located inside
covered secondary containment areas.
Significant facility changes since the last renewal include:
• BATO unable to continue using reclaimed water due quality and it caused several
issues with equipment; also more expensive due to extra materials required to
improve quality
• 150 gallon diesel fuel AST is housed adjacent to the gasoline tank (fuel tank
owned by a landscaping contractor)
• 2016-2018: Tandem Mixer Expansion - 18,366 ft2 building expansion to the
southeast side of the Mixing building to support installation on new Tandem
Mixer; 12 new silo bulk systems also installed (silos have a maximum capacity of
—100,000 lbs each; contain various types of carbon black and silica powder). The
new system general improvements to the carbon black unloading area.
• 2016-2018: Curing and Tire Room Expansion - 155,000 ft2 building expansion to
the north end of the Curing and Tire Rooms to support increase production
capacity. North stormwater ditch was moved 100 ft north and the East outfall
stormwater pond was enlarged.
• 2019-2020: Warehouse Expansion - 317,000 ft2 building expansion to the south
end of the warehouse. This expansion included the installation of 2 new
stormwater basins constructed to manage runoff discharged through the South
Outfall.
• 2020: No. 6 Oil Tanks Demo -Removal of two 100,000-gallon No. 6 Oil
aboveground fuel tanks (facility made the decision to discontinue use of No. 6
fuel oil). The tanks were emptied and demolished in 2020.
Outfall South (SW001):
Drainage area consists of the southern half of the existing warehouse, the new warehouse
expansion area, new truck loading docks, surrounding gravel and paved roads, new truck
parking lot, railroad spur, and grassed areas. Additional drainage areas include outdoor
material and equipment storage outside the powerhouse, the truck gate entrance road, and
Page 2 of 9

the truck gate house. It is noted that the portions of the drainage area are located within
the CSX right-of-way and are not operated or maintained by Bridgestone.
In 2019-2020, a warehouse expansion included the addition of 2 new stormwater basins
to manage runoff from redeveloped areas within the South Outfall drainage area.
• Drainage Basin I is a wet pond that collects roof runoff from the southern half of
the existing warehouse, the warehouse expansion, and surrounding roads and
parking areas. A grassed swale conveys warehouse expansion roof runoff, new
loading dock trench drain discharges, and the perimeter road to Drainage Basin 1.
• Drainage Basin 2 is a dry detention basin that collects runoff from the adjacent
truck lot via a grassed swale.
Industrial activities in this drainage area include:
• Used oil storage

Why Industrial Sites with Stormwater are Subject to a Permit: Federal NPDES
regulations define stormwater discharge associated with industrial activity in 40 CFR
§122.26 (b)(14) as: "the discharge from any conveyance that is used for collecting and
conveying storm water and that is directly related to manufacturing, processing or raw
materials storage areas at an industrial plant. The term does not include discharges from
facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program under this part 122. For the
categories of industries identified in this section, the term includes, but is not limited to,
storm water [sic] discharges from industrial plant yards; immediate access roads and rail
lines used or traveled by carriers of raw materials, manufactured products, waste
material, or byproducts used or created by the facility; material handling sites; refuse
sites; sites used for the application or disposal of process waste waters (as defined at part
401 of this chapter); sites used for the storage and maintenance of material handling
equipment; sites used for residual treatment, storage, or disposal; shipping and receiving
areas; manufacturing buildings; storage areas (including tank farms) for raw materials,
and intermediate and final products; and areas where industrial activity has taken place in
the past and significant materials remain and are exposed to storm water. For the
purposes of this paragraph, material handling activities include storage, loading and
unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw material, intermediate product, final
product, byproduct or waste product. The term excludes areas located on plant lands
separate from the plant's industrial activities, such as office buildings and accompanying
parking lots as long as the drainage from the excluded areas is not mixed with storm
water [sic] drained from the above described areas."

Section 2. Monitoring Information and Compliance History:
• October 2010 to December 2021 benchmarks exceeded for:
o East outfall: Zinc 12x > previous Zn benchmark (2x > 126 µg/L), TSS Ix,
O&G Ix, pH min not reached 3x
o South outfall: Zinc 20x > previous Zn benchmark (14x > 126 µg/L), COD
4x, TSS 9x, O&G Ix, pH minimum not reached 3x
• Per DEQ letter dated 6/13/2014, Tier 2 and Tier 3 Response relief was granted for
efforts to reduce zinc in stormwater
• Fires at facility reported to DEQ in June 2014 and July 2014
• Spills/leaks occurred at the facility in August 2011, April 2016 (2 spills), October
2016 (2 spills), March 2017, June 2017, August 2017, December 2017, June
2019, August 2021, and February 2022
Per the September 2020 inspection report the south outfall has a seasonal TSS issue,
however, as the outfall lies in a CSX railway maintained ditch, the permittee cannot make
changes or maintain the ditch. The ditch is eroding and is overgrown, and the permittee
stated there must be a legal agreement to disturb area within a certain distance of the
railroad. The area of the site that drains to this outfall mostly consists of parking lots.
Per information provided by the permittee (via email 5/6/2022), DEQ granted relief from
Tier 2 and Tier 3 responses for zinc exceedance was granted in 2014. The permittee
would like to continue with this status given continued efforts in reducing zinc
contamination in stormwater.
• DEQ response: Per the policy of the Stormwater Permitting Program, Tiered
Response relief effectively ends at the new permit cycle. Conditions start over at
baseline monitoring, and permittees will have to seek relief again if/when
appropriate.
Section 3. Proposed Monitoring for Stormwater Discharges:
The Division considered potential pollutants from past and present industrial activities
and data were submitted for October 2010 to December 2021. Quantitative sampling
included pH, oil and grease, TSS, COD, and zinc.
Unlike most stormwater permits in its program, the Division is proposing a permit
structure with outfall-specific monitoring for discharges. Parameters are based on
potential pollutants in the drainage area, sampling results, and in some cases, dependent
upon future activities (e.g., ash removal through the drainage area). Below is a table of
the proposed monitoring for each outfall at the Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations,
LLC site.

Stormwater Benchmarks and Tiered Response: Rather than limits, North Carolina
NPDES Stormwater permits contain benchmark concentrations. Stormwater benchmarks
are numerical action levels for stormwater monitoring. Benchmarks are not effluent
limits, and benchmark exceedances are not permit violations. Benchmarks provide
facilities a tool for assessing the significance of pollutants in stormwater discharges and
the effectiveness of best management practices (BMPs). Benchmark concentrations are
intended as guidelines for the facility's development and implementation of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
Benchmark exceedances require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase
management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater BMPs in a tiered
program. The permit establishes a tiered approach to specify actions the permittee must
take in response to analytical results above benchmark concentrations. The tiered
structure of the permit provides the permittee and DEMLR wide flexibility to address
issues that may arise with one or more parameters and/or outfalls.
Metals benchmarks are calculated to mimic acute water quality standards and with the
guidance of DWR. NC DWR follows established federal procedures for calculating acute
standards when developing the benchmarks. Just like the acute standards, metals
Page 6 of 9

benchmarks normally reflect one half of the calculated Final Acute Value (the "1/2
FAV"). In most cases, translation into total recoverable values is based on an assumed
hardness of 25 mg/L and a total suspended solids (TSS) concentration of 10 mg/L. Acute
standards protect aquatic life from negative impacts of short-term exposure to higher
levels of chemicals where the discharge enters a waterbody. The Stormwater Permitting
Program applies this approach because of the ephemeral nature of rainfall events.
The Division may evaluate results to determine if a smaller suite of parameters for some
outfalls is adequate to characterize potential pollution or BMP effectiveness. For
example, one or more metals or other parameters may serve as an adequate tracer for the
presence of ash pollution during disturbance or ash removal in specific drainage areas at
this site. For parameters that do not have a stormwater benchmark, the Division may
develop a benchmark value if appropriate toxicity data become available or if rising
trends in concentrations suggest a persistent source.
A summary of the benchmarks in the draft permit, and their basis, is below:

waters
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: The proposed permit conditions reflect the
EPA and NC's pollution prevention approach to stormwater permitting. The Division's
maintains that implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and traditional
stormwater management practices that control the source of pollutants meets the
definition of Best Available Technology (BAT) and Best Conventional Pollutant Control
Technology (BCT). The permit conditions are not numeric effluent limitations but are
designed to be flexible requirements for implementing site -specific plans to minimize and
control pollutants in stormwater discharges associated with the industrial activity. Title
40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 122.44(k)(2) authorizes the use of BMPs in lieu
of numeric effluent limitations in NPDES permits when the agency finds numeric
effluent limitations to be infeasible. The agency may also impose BMP requirements
which are "reasonably necessary" to carry out the purposes of the Act under the authority
of 40 CFR 122.44(k)(3). The conditions proposed in this draft permit are included under
the authority of both of these regulatory provisions. In essence, the pollution prevention
and BMP requirements operate as limitations on effluent discharges that reflect the
application of BAT/BCT.
Flexibility in Tier Responses: Tier Two actions provide an opportunity for the permittee
to propose an alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Region:
• Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive
exceedances, exercise the option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as
Page 7 of 9

provided below in Tier Three. The Regional Engineer may direct the response
actions on the part of the permittee as provided in Tier Three, including reduced
or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
• If pursuing the alternative above after two consecutive exceedances, the permittee
may propose an alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Regional
Engineer.
The permit therefore allows the permittee to petition the Regional Office for monitoring
changes sooner than Tier Three (upon any four benchmark exceedances) and gives
guidance on one option to take. For example, the permittee may request that mercury
only be monitored semi-annually under the tiers, or that only parameters over the
benchmark be monitored more frequently. In this way, changes to the monitoring scheme
for any outfall could be handled outside of a permit modification.
Other Proposed Requirements:
• It is standard for Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) requirements to
include an annual certification that stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for
the presence of non-stormwater discharges, and if any are identified, how those
discharges are permitted or otherwise authorized.
• Requirement to submit a request for permit modification if the facility identifies
or creates any new outfalls, removes outfalls, or alters any drainage area that
changes potential pollutants.
• The Division expects the permittee to apply best professional judgment and
consider the safety of its personnel in fulfilling sampling obligations under the
permit.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring
reports (DMRs). If a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals,
then permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the EPA.
• Quarterly QualitativeNisual Monitoring to assure regular observation of outfalls
throughout year.
Section 4. Changes from previous permit to draft:
• Monitoring increased from semi-annually to quarterly for all parameters
(qualitative and quantitative)
• "No discharge" clarifications made
• 'No
requirement added
• Boilerplate language moved into body of the permit; boilerplate no longer
attached
• Monitoring for total hardness added for all outfalls as monitoring for hardness
dependent metals is required
• Benchmarks updated for parameters per guidance from DWR Standards group on
stormwater benchmarks (zinc)

Dear Ms. Fanslau:
On September 29, 2020, Lauren Garcia, from the Raleigh Regional Office of the Division of
Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR), met with Tausha Fanslau, Environmental
Coordinator, at the facility located at 3001 Firestone Parkway, in Wilson County, to conduct
a compliance inspection. The inspection consisted of reviewing: the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and each of its components, the facility's outfalls, and the overall
site conditions. The inspection was conducted to ensure stormwater best management
practices are being followed, and to help fulfill NCDEQ's goal of inspecting all permitted
facilities during each permit period.
Permit:
This facility has Individual Stormwater Permit NCS000370 to discharge stormwater under
the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The current permit term
began on September 1, 2010.
Records/Reports:
The facility is required to develop and maintain a SWPPP in accordance with Part II, Section
A of the permit. All qualitative and analytical monitoring records are required to be
maintained with the SWPPP for a minimum of five years.
The facility provided all necessary records.

0 Overall, the SWPPP was well put together and record keeping was very organized
and ready for NCDEQ to review.
Facility Site Review:
The facility manufactures tires.
All materials, machinery, and tanks were stored/located within proper secondary
containment.
• The site appeared to be very well maintained.
There are two sampled outfalls present at the facility, located to the south and east of the
facility.
There has historically been a seasonal issue with TSS at the south outfall. The outfall
is located in a CSX railway right-of-way and CSZ will not allow Bridgestone
personnel to maintain or improve the outfall. A follow-up inspection will occur in
November to determine if the outfall can be removed from sampling.
Receiving Waters:
Stormwater at the site discharges to Toisnot Swamp, a class C:Sw, NSW stream in the Neuse
River Basin.
Self -Monitoring Program:
The facility is required to provide qualitative and analytical monitoring data twice
annually.
• The facility has monitored twice annually in accordance with the permit.
The facility is considered to be in compliance. The facility provided all necessary records
and has upheld the conditions of the stormwater permit. If you have any questions or need
additional information, please contact Lauren Garcia at 919-791-4213 or

Inspection Summary:
Met with Tausha Fausla onsite. The original intent of the visit was to inspect three erosion control sites at the facility. The
facility was very well maintained and all records were readily available. There are two outfalls sampled onsite. There is a
seasonal TSS issue at the south outfall. The south outfall lies in a CSX maintained ditch. CSX (railway) will not allow
Bridgestone to make changes to or maintain the ditch. The ditch is eroding and is overgrown. Tasha stated there must be a
legal agreement to disturb area within a certain distance of the railroad. It was stated during the site visit that Thad Valentine
and Lauren Garcia would revisit the site when the WILSO-2019-010 construction project is ready for closeout. A final
determination will be made on whether the south outfall needs to continue to be sampled. The area of the site that drains to
this outfall mostly consists of parking lots.

Good Morning Brianna,
Thank you for the notification that you all are working on our updated Individual Stormwater permit. As you have
requested, I have attached an electronic spreadsheet summarizing all our monitoring data collected since the effective
date of permit NCS000370. I have also verified that the information listed in the Stormwater Permit Summary Report for
Permit NCS000370 is correct and current. Per your request, I have also attached a list of changes to our operations since
the renewal application was submitted. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the information you've
requested, please let me know.
In addition to the items you've requested, I have also attached our most recent Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
This plan has been updated to include all the above changes. Our facility reviews the SWPPP annually in addition to
several site inspections and Best Management Practices (BMP) to reduce our
stormwater impact. In 2014 our facility received a letter from NCDENR granting our facility relief from Tier 2 and Tier 3
responses for zinc exceedance. This letter has also been included. We would like to continue with this status given the
continued efforts in reducing our zinc contamination in stormwater.
Please let me know if you have any further requests and I will respond promptly.
Thank you,
Jerray Battle

Good afternoon,
The Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) Stormwater Permitting Program
acknowledges receipt of your renewal application for coverage under NPDES Permit Number NCS000370 on
March 3, 2015. Please continue to comply with all conditions and monitoring requirements in your
expired NPDES stormwater permit. As long as you have submitted a complete renewal request package and
maintain compliance with those permit conditions, stormwater discharges from this facility are authorized by
that permit until the Division issues a renewal permit or notifies you of an alternative action.
In order to continue reviewing the renewal package, I need additional information in order to 1) confirm that the
information I have is correct and 2) make sure the permit adequately serves the needs of the facility. Please
provide the following:
• An electronic spreadsheet summarizing all of the monitoring data that has been collected since the
effective date of the current permit;
• Verification that the information in the renewal application is still complete and correct; and
• An explanation of any operational changes since the renewal application was submitted.
Enter your stormwater permit number into the Stormwater Permit Summary Report and you will see a form that
includes the address of the facility, contact information for the permit, and the regulated stormwater outfall(s) for the
facility. Please review the facility information to make sure it is correct. Information can be updated using the links
provided below, where applicable:
• Facility/Company name or ownership: Name/Ownership Change Form
• Owner Affiliation (Legally responsible person; i.e., someone with the company who is designated to
represent the company per signatory requirements or another authorized representative): Permit Contact

• Facility address only: Email Bethany og ulias
• Stormwater outfall information: Email Bethany Georgoulias
• Visit the eDMR Six Steps website and complete Steps 1 and 2.
• Pay outstanding permit fees: Stormwater ePUment website
Once I have the above listed information, I can continue my review. You will receive a draft permit for a 30-day
comment period. During this time we will be able to address any comments or concerns you have. During the
same 30-day period, the draft will be sent to a Regional Office staff member for review as well as out to public
notice. Once all comments and concerns are addressed, you may be issued a final permit.

Please contact me if you have any questions.

NPDES Permit Renewal: Significant Facility Changes
SIGNIFICANT FACILITY CHANGES
The facility has undergone a few changes since the NPDES permit renewal in 2015. These changes have
been documented in the facility's SWPPP and are summarized below:
2016-2018 Tandem Mixer Expansion
18,366 ft2 building expansion to the south east side of the Mixing building to
support installation on new Tandem Mixer. Additional 12 new silo bulk system
was also installed. These silos' have a maximum capacity of about 100,000 lbs.
each. These silos contain various types of carbon black and silica powder. The
new system general improvements to the carbon black unloading area.
2016-2018 Curing and Tire Room Expansion
155,000 ft2 building expansion to the north end of the Curing and Tire Rooms to
support increase production capacity. North stormwater ditch was moved 100 ft
north and the east outfall stormwater pond was enlarged.
2019-2020 Warehouse Expansion
317,000 ft2 building expansion to the south end of the warehouse. This
expansion included the installation of 2 new stormwater basins constructed to
manage runoff discharged through the South Outfall.
2020 No. 6 Oil Tanks Demo
Removal of two 100,000-gallon No. 6 Oil aboveground fuel tanks. The facility
has made the decision to discontinue use of No. 6 fuel oil. The tanks were

NPDES Permit NCS000370
Wilson County
Dear Ms. Villegas:
In response to your discussions with NCDENR Land Quality Section staff, concerning multiple
exceedances of the benchmark value for zinc, Dave Parnell of the Land Quality Section -
Stormwater staff, conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) on May 22, 2014. The
inspection was conducted to determine compliance with the conditions of your NPDES
NCS00370 Stormwater Permit and to discuss any actions that have been or could be taken to
identify and eliminate potential sources of Zinc related to facility operations.
Keep in mind that benchmark exceedances are not limit violations or violations of permit
conditions; however, you are obligated to follow the tiered response actions outlined in your
permit. At the time of the inspection, your facility was found to be in compliance with the
tiered response actions and other conditions of the permit. During the inspection, you are
reported to have relayed to Mr. Parnell that you have been unable to determine the source of
the higher levels of zinc, found at the South outfall. It was reported that zinc oxide is used in
the process of producing your tires, but the addition of zinc oxide into the production process
occurs within the drainage area of the East outfall. Zinc oxide is not used in the tires
production within the drainage area of the South outfall. No exceedance of zinc is found
within the East outfall. Also, it is notable in this case, that numerous best management
practices (BMP) implemented during the last several months, appears to have had an effect on
the reduction on zinc at the South outfall. Your diligence in attempting to determine and

eliminate the zinc source and your continued communication with Raleigh Regional Office
staff is commendable and is documented back to September 2013.
Based on the aforementioned items, DENR Land Quality Section is granting regulatory relief in
the form of a collapsed Tier 2-Tier 3 response. Upon receipt of this letter, Bridgestone
Americas Tire Operation - Wilson may resume the permit specified semi-annual analytical
monitoring for the remainder of the current permit term -which ends August 31, 2015. This
decision applies only to the zinc benchmark. A benchmark exceedance of any other
parameter listed in your permit will trigger the tiered response actions as described in
your permit.
You must notify this office, in writing, within five business days if you become aware of any
significant source of zinc at your facility that has the potential to be exposed to stormwater.
The relief granted in this letter is contingent upon the current industrial practices at
Bridgestone. If industrial practices change and zinc does become a significant stormwater
exposure risk then this office reserves the right to withdraw this decision and reinstate the
permit specified tiered response or other actions that may be warranted by the new set of
circumstances.
Retain and append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit.
Should you have questions or comments regarding the CEI or this letter, please contact Dave
Parnell at [phone] or [e-mail].

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
1 INTRODUCTION
This Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) has been completed for the Bridgestone Americas
Tire Operations, LLC (BATO) plant in Wilson, North Carolina (BATO-Wilson) in accordance with the North
Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) individual stormwater permit NCS000370, which was effective on September 1, 2010 and
expired on August 31, 2015. A copy of NPDES Permit NCS000370 (Permit) is included in Appendix A.
A General Site Location Map is provided as Figure 1. As of the date of this revision, DEQ has not issued
permit coverage under the new stormwater permit; therefore, the previous permit is administratively
continued until a new permit is received. This Permit allows BATO-Wilson (Facility) to discharge
stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina through two permitted stormwater outfalls. The SWP3
is one of several contingency plans referenced in Section 8.2 of WS-601, "EMS Manual" which BATO-
Wilson utilizes to prevent and alleviate environmental impacts from its operations.
2 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
2.1 Purpose
The purpose of the SWP3 is to identify potential sources of storm water pollution at the facility and to
select and implement controls to minimize and, where possible, prevent the introduction of pollutants into
storm water at the Facility. Storm water management recommendations included in this SWP3 focus on
providing reasonable control of pollutant discharges with practical approaches based on readily available
techniques. The SWP3 is organized according to the elements necessary for compliance with the
NPDES Permit regulations and for the ease of use by facility employees.
This SWP3 is intended to be a flexible, active, operational plan, allowing the incorporation of appropriate
industry accepted and recommended management practices. As the plan is implemented, revisions to the
plan will be made accordingly as the regulations change or changes at the facility require. When such
revisions are made, they will be documented in the plan.
For ease of review and use, Table 2-1 includes the required elements of the SWP3 and the location of
this information within the document.

2.2 Procedural Requirements and Plan Amendments
BATO-Wilson must comply with the following procedural requirements of the NPDES Individual
Stormwater Permit:
• The SWP3 must be amended whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation or
maintenance which has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to
surface waters. A summary of SWP3 modifications is included in Appendix B.
• At a minimum, all aspects of the SWP3 must be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The
annual update shall contain a list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
years, or the notification that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall also include a
written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-
stormwater discharge. Each annual update shall also include a documented re-evaluation of the

3 FACILITY INFORMATION
3.1 Facility Description
The BATO-Wilson Facility is located on an approximate 400-acre parcel northeast of the City of Wilson,
NC and immediately west of U.S. Highway 301 as shown in Figure 1. According to the U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) Maps, Elm City, N.C. and Winstead Crossroads, N.C. Quadrangles, dated 1977, (10-foot
contour interval) site topography varies between about 130 and 140 feet National Geodetic Vertical
Datum (NGVD). Plant access is via a perimeter -paved roadway (Firestone Parkway), which intersects
N.C. Highway 1328 near U.S. Highway 301. Interior plant roads and parking areas are paved or gravel.
Passenger car radial tires are manufactured at the plant. Raw rubber, carbon black, process oils,
pigments (rubber chemicals) and associated fiber and steel belt materials are mixed, formed and molded
into vehicle tires. The facility includes approximately 1,909,000 square feet of production floor area,
738,000 square feet of warehouse, 32,500 square feet of office floor area, and contiguous asphalt or
concrete pavement. The facility is served by rail located south of the plant. Individual rail spur lines serve
the carbon black and silica unloading area, the process oil unloading area, and the receiving building.
Raw materials including rubber, carbon black, silica, process oils, and the associated bulk, drummed or
bagged chemicals used in the manufacturing process are delivered by rail and/or truck to the Receiving
Building.
The plant and warehouse underwent several expansions between 2016 and 2020 and future extrusion
and mixing expansions will occur in the future to increase production capacity. An update to this SWP3
will be performed upon completion of future plant expansions that impact stormwater related BMPs and
general site drainage.
3.2 Receiving Waters
As shown on Figure 1, surface runoff from the Facility is discharged via two outfalls. Figure 2 illustrates
the drainage areas that discharge to each of the two site outfalls:
• South Outfall:
o As part of the Warehouse Expansion, which occurred in 2019-2020, two new stormwater
basins were constructed to manage runoff from redeveloped areas within the South
Outfall drainage area.
■ Drainage Basin 1 is a wet pond that collects roof runoff from the southern half of
the existing warehouse, as well as runoff from the warehouse expansion and
surrounding roads and parking areas. A grassed swale conveys warehouse
expansion roof runoff, new loading dock trench drain discharges and the
perimeter road to Drainage Basin 1. The outlet of this pond discharges to a
swale that flows from north to south, conveying runoff to the northern railroad
spur ditch. Flow then travels east, enters a culvert under the railroad tracks, and
discharges through the South Outfall via a 60-inch pipe.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
■ Drainage Basin 2 is a dry detention basin located west of the new truck lot, and
south of the railroad spur. This basin collects runoff from the adjacent truck lot
via a grassed swale, and discharges directly to the southern railroad spur. From
there, stormwater flows to the east where it discharges through the South Outfall
via a 60-inch pipe.
o Additional drainage areas that include outdoor material and equipment storage outside
the Power House, the truck gate entrance road and the truck gate house discharge
directly to the southern railroad spur ditch.
o All three sub -drainage areas discharge to the swale located parallel to the railroad spur,
which discharges through a 60-inch pipe via the South Outfall to an unnamed
tributary to Toisnot Swamp Creek. The tributary creek converges with Toisnot Swamp
Creek and Toisnot Swamp approximately 10,000 feet southwest of the site.
o Drainage Area: Approximately 67.7 acres and consists of the southern half of the
existing warehouse, the new warehouse expansion area, new truck loading docks,
surrounding gravel and paved roads, new truck parking lot, railroad spur, and grassed
areas. It is noted that the portions of the drainage area located within the CSX right-of-
way are not operated or maintained by Bridgestone.
o Coordinates: 35°45'25.38"N, 77°52'24.58"W
o Toisnot Swamp is a class C, NSW stream in the Neuse River Basin. Toisnot Swamp is
not impaired; however, the Neuse River Basin has an approved TMDL for Nitrogen. The
Neuse Stormwater Rule does not apply to the County of Wilson 2.
• East Outfall:
o Surface runoff from the northern and eastern portions of the site is collected via curb and
gutter and discharged to a large drainage ditch located parallel to the north edge of the
existing factory. This drainage ditch directs flow to a stormwater retention pond that
discharges to White Swamp via the East Outfall.
Drainage Area: Approximately 140.5 acres and consists of the northern half of the
existing warehouse, existing factory buildings, parking lots, plant roads, railroad spur,
electric substation, and grassed areas.
o Coordinates: 35°45'36.81"N, 77°51'39.56"W

3.4 Facility Stormwater Drainage and Industrial Activities
Stormwater from the Facility is discharged off -site through two stormwater outfalls: South Outfall and
East Outfall, as shown on Figure 1. This section describes the drainage patterns, industrial activity
areas, potential pollutants, existing BMPs and other pertinent information within each drainage area, as
required by Part II.A.1(b) and (c) in the Permit. The Site Drainage Map (Figure 2) illustrates the drainage
area boundaries, stormwater discharge outfalls, industrial activity areas, site drainage system and
direction, and existing BMPs at the Facility. Tables included in Appendix C4 contain the Storage
Location Descriptions for the Location IDs shown on Figure 2. The following sections include
descriptions of the drainage patterns and industrial activities for each of the drainage areas.
3.4.1 East Outfall Drainage Area
The East Outfall Drainage Area is approximately 140.5 acres and discharges to White Swamp via the
East Outfall, as shown on Figure 2. Table 3-2 lists the industrial activities and potential pollutants that are
present within the East Outfall Drainage Area:
Drainage Patterns
Rooftop runoff from the existing factory, the north side of the existing warehouse roof, and the industrial
areas located north and west of the warehouse and existing factory are discharged to a stormwater
conveyance channel that runs parallel to the north side of the existing factory. In addition, stormwater
runoff from a temporary onsite soils disposal area located northwest of the plant discharges to the
stormwater channel at the north end of the factory. While this area is not considered industrial, the
grassed drainage swales will be permanent and will need to be maintained to ensure positive drainage in
this area. The channel at the north side of the plant discharges to the forebay of the East Stormwater
Pond and discharges offsite via the East Outfall. This pond was retrofit as part of a plant expansion
project in 2016 to enhance water quality treatment through the installation of a larger forebay and
expansion to increase volume. The parking lot, paved areas south and east of the existing factory,
4 Storage Location Description Tables are from the July 2020 version of the SPCC Plan.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
portions of the rail spur line and rooftop runoff from the receiving building and office are collected via curb
and gutter and are discharged to the forebay of the East Stormwater Pond.
Industrial Activities
The following storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, and waste
disposal practices are present within the East Outfall Drainage Area, and can be located on Figure 2:

The South Outfall Drainage Area is approximately 67.7 acres and discharges to an unnamed tributary to
Toisnot Swamp via the South Outfall, as shown on Figure 2. Table 3-2 lists the industrial activities and
potential pollutants that are present within the South Outfall Drainage Area:
e

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
Drainage Patterns
Rooftop runoff from a portion of the existing factory, outdoor storage areas located south of the factory,
and the gate house is collected via curb and gutter and discharged to a manmade stormwater
conveyance channel that runs parallel to the railroad spur (see Figure 2). Rooftop runoff from the
southern half of the existing warehouse, new warehouse expansion, new truck loading docks and
surrounding roads, storage and grassed areas discharges to Drainage Basin 1, which was constructed as
part of the Warehouse Expansion project in 2019-2020. This wet pond discharges to a manmade ditch
that flows to the railroad ditch and discharges off site through a 60-inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe
(RCP) at the railroad spur line (South Outfall). A new truck lot located south of the railroad spur
discharges to Drainage Basin 2, which is a dry detention basin that discharges directly to the railroad spur
ditch and then offsite through the South Outfall. Grassed swales are located parallel to the railroad spur
on the north and south to convey runoff to the two basins. The South Outfall discharges into the tributary
creek of Toisnot Swamp Creek.
Industrial Activities
The following storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, and waste
disposal practices are present within the South Outfall Drainage Area, and can be located on Figure 2:
• Use oil storage,
• Used oil loading to trucks,
• Fuel oil storage,
• Equipment storage (air compressors),
• Oil -Filled Transformers,
• Nitrogen Generation Plant,

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
3.6 Spill and Leak History
Part II.A.1(d) of the Permit requires that a list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred
at the facility during the three previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts be
included in the SWP3. For ease of updates, the spill and leak history has been included in Appendix D.
3.7 Certification of Non-Stormwater Discharges
Part II.A.1(e) of the Permit requires an annual certification that the stormwater outfalls at the Facility have
been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. Examples of non-stormwater discharges
include any water used directly in the manufacturing process (process water), non -contact cooling water,
vehicle wash water, or sanitary wastes. The certification is based on a dry -season visual assessment of
each stormwater discharge in both the East and South drainage areas. Documentation of the annual
non-stormwater discharge evaluation and certification are included in Appendix E.
4 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) contains a narrative description of the materials management
practices employed at BATO-Wilson that are designed to control or minimize the exposure of significant
materials to stormwater, including structural and non-structural measures. The SMP includes the
following:
• Feasibility Study
• Secondary Containment Requirements and Records
• Best Management Practice (BMP) Summary
4.1 Feasibility Study
BATO-Wilson continually evaluates industrial practices with the goal of reducing the potential
contamination of stormwater. Whenever feasible, industrial activities such as material storage and
handling, unloading of chemicals and fuel oil, and process activities are performed indoors or under
cover. Best management practices and stormwater pollution prevention methods are employed for new
construction. Outdoor bulk storage of liquid chemicals and fuel are located within secondary containment
(as discussed in Section 4.2). In areas where the elimination of exposure is not practical, it was
determined that it is not feasible to divert stormwater runoff away from these areas of potential
contamination. For these areas, good housekeeping BMPs are employed. Structural improvements to
improve the quality of stormwater leaving the site and reduce the potential contamination of stormwater
from industrial activities that have been implemented since the last SWP3 update in 2016 include the
following:
• Retrofit of the East Stormwater Pond to increase treatment capacity through the enlargement of
the forebay and volume expansion. In addition, a sluice gate was added to the outfall of this pond
im

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
to allow plant personnel to prevent discharges from the pond through the East Outfall in the event
of a spill within the drainage area.
• Addition of Drainage Basins 1 and 2 in the South Outfall drainage area. These basins will provide
additional stormwater treatment to remove sediment and other pollutants from the runoff in this
area.
Construction of a covered carbon black and silica railcar unloading area, which prevents
stormwater from contacting the railcars and surrounding area during unloading activities. At the
uncovered carbon black silo area, the nearby storm drain is protected by hay bales to prevent
accidental release of spilled carbon black.
For these reasons described above, and the fact that BATO-Wilson does not have any outside storage of
solid SARA 313 water priority chemicals or hazardous substances, further changes in methods of
operations or storage practices are not technically or economically feasible.
4.2 Secondary Containment Requirements and Records
Per Part II.A.2(b) of the Permit, secondary containment is required for the following:
• Bulk storage of liquid materials;
• Storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the SARA water priority chemicals; and
• Storage in any amount of hazardous substances in order to prevent leaks and spills from
contaminating stormwater runoff.
A summary of all bulk liquid storage tanks and associated secondary containment volumes is included in
Appendix C. If the secondary containment is connected to stormwater conveyance, the connection is
controlled by manually activated valves, which are secured by a locking mechanism. Stormwater that
accumulates in the containment areas is visually inspected and either pumped to an OWS or pumped out
by a contractor. No stormwater collected within oil storage containment is released to the stormwater
system.
4.3 Best Management Practices Summary
This section includes a list of structural and non-structural BMPs that have been installed and
implemented at the Facility, and the rationale for the selected site BMPs, in accordance with Part II.A.2(c)
of the Permit. This BMP Summary must be reviewed and updated annually, as necessary.
In addition, per Part ILE of the Permit, the Facility must have developed and implemented a BMP
Management Plan (and submitted to the Division by March 21, 2011). The BMP Management Plan is
required to include the following:
• Structural or source reduction BMPs that were selected based on the assessment of the potential
for sources to contribute significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges. The Plan
was required to be submitted to the Division by March 31, 2011.
12

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
• Construction plans for selected and approved BMPs, which were required to be submitted to
DEQ by August 31, 2011.
• Once construction plans are approved, the Facility was required to construct and/or implement
selected and approved BMPs no later than February 29, 2012.
The original BMP Management Plan for BATO-Wilson is included in Appendix F. Multiple plant
expansion projects have occurred since the original BMP Management Plan was developed. As
discussed in Section 4.1, several improvements to site BMPs have been implemented to improve
stormwater quality and reduce the potential for stormwater pollution from industrial activities. The
Construction Plans for the East Stormwater Pond retrofit project and the grading plans for Drainage
Basins 1 and 2 are included with this SWP3, as evidence of a modification to the BMP Management Plan
(see Appendix F).
4.3.1 Structural BMPs
Entire Site
The Facility is equipped with an oil water separator (OWS) that treats water from within the plant as well
as some stormwater that comes into contact with outdoor areas within both drainage areas. The OWS is
located at the south side of the Receiving Building near the southeast property corner (Figure 2). The
OWS consists of two cast -in -place concrete vaults. Oil contaminated wastewaters collected in the plant
floor drains as well as oil contaminated wastewaters from the sumps of the process oil AST's and their
unloading stations first enter the 12-foot deep collection vault of the OWS. Water collected in the OWS is
drawn off of the bottom by a lift pump and discharged to the municipal sanitary sewer. Level switches
control the lift pump. In case of pump failure, the OWS would first overflow to an 8-foot deep overflow
vault. An 8.5-inch high secondary containment curb will contain 7,900 gallons of wastewater should the
vault also overflow. Oil is drawn off by a belt oil skimmer and collected in the overflow vault. A contractor
periodically removes the skimmed oil and keeps the level in the vault low enough that an overflow from
the main vault can be accommodated. The OWS is equipped with a permanent cover to minimize the
collection of rainwater in the concrete vaults. An in -ground storm water grate drain is located down
gradient of the OWS. Surface runoff collected in the on -site drainage system near the OWS is
discharged to the storm water retention ponds at the northeast property corner. The OWS was
completely pumped down and cleaned in 2019 and is periodically monitored to check sludge levels.
East Outfall Drainage Area
Stormwater Retention Pond: all stormwater in the East Outfall Drainage area discharges to a
two -cell stormwater retention pond, prior to discharging offsite through the East Outfall, as
discussed in Section 3.4.1. This pond serves as a water quality and quantity control measure for
the drainage area and was expanded as part of the 2016 plant expansion. The pond meets the
water quality goals of the Tar Pamlico Stormwater Rule through the removal of total phosphorus
and total nitrogen. The pond will also inherently remove sediment from runoff through settling.
• Oil Absorbent Booms — A boat and container of oil absorbent booms are stored near the pond to
deploy in case of an accidental release of oil within the drainage area.
13

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
• The East Stormwater Pond outlet is equipped with a manually activated sluice gate to close off
discharges from the pond in the case of an accidental spill within the drainage area that enters
the pond.
• Oil/Water Separator west of carbon black storage: The OWS consists of two cast -in -place
concrete vaults. Oil contaminated wastewaters collected in the plant floor drains as well as oil
contaminated wastewaters from the sumps of the process oil AST's and their unloading stations
first enter the 12-foot deep collection vault of the OWS. Water collected in the OWS is drawn off
of the bottom by a lift pump and discharged to the municipal sanitary sewer. Level switches
control the lift pump. In case of pump failure, the OWS would first overflow to an 8-foot deep
overflow vault. An 8.5-inch high secondary containment curb will contain 7,900 gallons of
wastewater should the vault also overflow. Oil is drawn off by a belt oil skimmer and collected in
the overflow vault. A contractor periodically removes the skimmed oil and keeps the level in the
vault low enough that an overflow from the main vault can be accommodated. The OWS is
equipped with a permanent cover to minimize the collection of rainwater in the concrete vaults.
An in -ground stormwater grate drain is located down gradient of the OWS. Surface runoff
collected in the on -site drainage system near the OWS is discharged to the stormwater retention
ponds at the northeast property corner. The OWS contains 2,000 gallons of oily water in the open
reservoir component of the system. There are also up to two 275-gallon totes of used oil stored at
this site. The site is located in a covered concrete berm with an estimated capacity of 7,900
gallons so any discharge would be contained within the berm and cause no stormwater pollution.
• The carbon black and silica railcar unloading area is covered by a building that is open on either
end to move rail cars in and out of the area.
• Oil contaminated wastewaters generated in the mixing area of the plant are collected in floor
drains and directed to a lift station located west of the Mixing Building (see Figure 2). The lift
station consists of a concrete vault with a removable expanded metal cover and galvanized rain
cover. The concrete vault rises above the floor level of the mixing area. The lift station pumps are
actuated by high/low level switches. An amber light flashes when one pump is running and one
float is up. A red light indicates when both pumps are running and both floats are up. In addition,
a green light was recently added to the lift station pump to indicate that the unit has power. The
oil -contaminated wastewaters collected at the lift station are pumped to the OWS through below
ground piping.
o An in -ground stormwater grate drain is located down gradient of the lift station. In the
event of a switch or pump malfunction, the elevation of the vault will cause the water in
the lift station to back up into the mixing area inside the building where it can be
controlled. Surface runoff collected in the on -site drainage system near the lift station is
discharged to the stormwater retention ponds at the northeast property corner.
• Drums of hazardous waste are accumulated prior to shipment in a concrete containment structure
with a permanent cover located south of the solvent aboveground storage tanks (ASTs). The area
is fenced with a locked gate. The sump of the hazardous waste accumulation area is plugged and
checked as part of the weekly hazardous waste inspection required by RCRA. Any accumulation
14

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
of water will be allowed to evaporate. Excess water will be removed by a contract vacuum truck
after determining that it is not spilled hazardous waste.
• Containment Berms — As discussed in Section 4.2, all bulk liquid chemical and fuel storage is
located within containment berms to prevent stormwater from contacting potential pollutants and
being released to the stormwater drainage system. Descriptions of these containment areas in
the East Outfall Drainage area are as follows:
o The wax/lube oil unloading areas are curbed areas designed for unloading tanker trucks
or rail car tankers. The curbed areas are sized to contain the contents of a tanker truck or
rail car tanker plus precipitation. This area drains to the stormwater settling ponds. The
wax/lube oil storage tanks are located inside covered secondary containment areas. The
containment areas are sized to contain the contents of the largest tank plus precipitation.
Any stormwater collected within these containment areas is pumped out to the OWS for
treatment.
o The process solvent unloading area and tank farm are roofed and are surrounded by
concrete dikes sized to contain the contents of a tanker truck and the largest tank,
respectively. Because this area is roofed, very little stormwater comes into contact with
the unloading or storage facilities. The secondary containment for each solvent tank is
equipped with a sump and pump to collect overspill and rainwater. Fluids ponding in the
containment structures are collected in sumps. The secondary solvent containment areas
and sumps are checked monthly. Any collected rainwater is either allowed to dry or
checked for the presence of solvents and then, if found to be solvent free, pumped out.
o Drummed hazardous waste at the drummed hazardous waste storage area is stored in a
roofed area so as not to be exposed to stormwater. What stormwater does come into
contact with the hazardous waste storage area is generally allowed to dry unless
hazardous waste were to be spilled into the stormwater. In this event, the contaminated
stormwater would be collected and disposed as hazardous waste. The drain from this
area is permanently plugged.
o The storage area for totes of RE067 is located beside the hazardous waste 90-day
storage area. This area is under a roof and has a dike surrounding all but the entrance.
Flow to a storm drain would be north, then east and then south. A spill in this area can be
isolated by berming the entrance to the area.
o The truck unloading docks are equipped with side baffles. Trucks unloading bags and
totes at the docks back up to the docks such that materials are not exposed to
stormwater.
o The containment structures of the process oil tanks are equipped with sumps for
collection of overspill, dumped condensate, and rainwater. Water and product
accumulations collected in the sumps are pumped to the plant's OWS for treatment.
o Generators that run on liquid fuels are within an enclosure. Fuel tanks to support the
generators are double -walled.
15

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
o The mixing floor drains are located within the containment area of the former oil
demisters and are inspected monthly as part of the SPCC inspection. The area is
cleaned periodically to minimize oil exposure to stormwater. Containment has been
installed with oil/water separation for stormwater and is pumped to the OWS.
o The unloading station for the removed No. 6 fuel oil ASTs is covered with a roof. While
tanker trucks are no longer unloading fuel in this area, a diesel tank is stored within this
concrete curbed area. The curbed area is sized to contain the contents of a tanker truck
plus precipitation. The fuel oil storage tank farm is under a roof and enclosed within a
containment dike sized to contain the contents of the largest tank plus precipitation.
Stormwater discharge from the fuel oil storage tank farm containment dike is pumped to
the OWS, which discharges to the local wastewater treatment plant.
South Outfall Drainage Area
• Rail Spur Drainage Ditches: All stormwater runoff from the South Outfall Drainage area
discharges to a series of drainage swales prior to discharging offsite through the South Outfall, as
described in Section 3.4.2. These ditches are within the CSX right-of-way and are not maintained
by Bridgestone.
• Grassed Swales: As part of the warehouse expansion project in 2019-2020, two grassed swales
were constructed parallel to the rail spur to convey stormwater runoff to two stormwater basins.
These grassed swales provide some pollutant reduction through infiltration and slowing the
velocity of runoff before entering the basins.
• Drainage Basin 1 — This wet pond receives stormwater runoff from the southern half of the
existing warehouse, the roof runoff from the warehouse expansion, the two new truck loading
docks and surrounding roads and parking areas. This pond contains a forebay, inlet protect and
water quality treatment capacity to meet the requirements of the Neuse River Basin, even though
these requirements are not applicable for the facility.
• Drainage Basin 2 — This dry detention basin receives runoff from the new truck lot and
surrounding grassy areas located south of the rail spur. The primary purpose of this basin is to
provide flow attenuation; however, some water quality treatment is provided by allowing
sediments to settle out from influent stormwater.
• Valves installed at the end of the trench drains in front of the new truck loading docks allow
isolation of accidental spills or leaks from trucks, preventing from discharges to Drainage Basin 1.
• Containment Berms — As discussed in Section 4.2, all bulk liquid chemical and fuel storage is
located within containment berms to prevent stormwater from contacting potential pollutants and
being released to the stormwater drainage system. Descriptions of these containment areas in
the South Outfall Drainage area are as follows:
o Any stormwater that gets into the drum storage area or the used oil storage area of the
used oil/sludge storage building is pumped to a tank or tote and taken to the oil/water
separator or pumped out by a contractor. This area is inspected monthly.
16

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
o Condensate and/or stormwater that gets in the air compressor containment are pumped
by a contractor. This area is inspected monthly.
o Stormwater that gets into the Lube Oil Storage Building is pumped to the curbed oil/water
separation pit. This area is inspected monthly.
o The containment and oil/water separation pit at the gasoline storage tank are inspected
monthly. The oil trap at the gasoline tank is cleaned as needed as determined by the
monthly inspection.
o Generators that run on liquid fuels are within an enclosure. Fuel tanks to support the
generators are double -walled.
4.3.2 Non -Structural BMPs
Non-structural BMPs include policies and procedures that are followed at the Facility to minimize the
potential for stormwater pollution. Non-structural BMPs at BATO-Wilson include the following:
• Trucks loading tires at the warehouse loading docks back up to the docks such that the tires are
not exposed to stormwater.
• For those materials that must be stored outside, not under cover and not within a bermed area,
janitorial can be called to send spill kit materials and employees who handle materials are trained
in procedures to minimize the risk of spills as well as in proper spill response actions.
• Monthly inspections of all potential stormwater pollution sources, as described in Section 9.
• Weekly inspections of the Hazardous Waste Storage Area.
• Whenever possible, dumpsters for trash and recycles are kept covered with the lid, or are located
under cover to prevent stormwater accumulation. In addition, trash dumpsters are not stored
near stormwater inlets.
• All spills and leaks are cleaned up immediately, and spills kits are located near all areas of liquid
chemical or fuel storage.
• Annual training of staff is conducted as described in Section 7.
5 SPILL PREVENTION AND RESPONSE PLAN
Per Part II.A.3 of the Permit, a Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) is required to be included in
the SWP3. The SPRP shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a
materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or the team) responsible for implementing the SPRP
shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and dated by each individual
acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during
facility operations that have the potential to contaminate Stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of
materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore,
an oil SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may not be sufficient to completely address the
17

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be
incorporated by reference into the SPRP.
Assessment of Potential Pollutant Sources
A potential pollutant assessment is performed annually as part of the SWPPP review process, or
whenever a new or different chemicals are proposed to be used onsite. Section 3.5 contains the list of
potential pollutant sources based on materials inventory of the facility.
Responsible Facility Personnel
Facility personnel responsible for implementing the SPRC Plan are as follows:
Name: Harsh Jha, Plant Engineer Signature:
Office: 252-246-7683 Mobile:[phone]
Name: Jerray Battle, Environmental Coordinator Signature:
Office: 252-246-7485 Mobile: [phone]
During after -hour shifts, the maintenance crew shift lead is responsible for spill response and clean-up,
and will notify one or both of the above -mentioned responsible facility personnel in case of emergencies.
Spill Prevention and Response Procedures
The Bridgestone Spill Prevention and Countermeasures Plan (SPCC Plan, updated July 2020) includes
all spill prevention and response procedures for liquid chemicals and petroleum products that are stored
and handled onsite. The SPCC Spill Response Procedures are attached to this document in Appendix
G. Per Section 8.5 of the SPCC Plan, the Spill Response Procedures include the following:
In the event of a release of contents from a tank, truck, railcar, electrical equipment, tote, and/or
drum listed above, all facility personnel are trained to immediately follow the site spill procedure
(Appendix F) and take other appropriate actions to prevent the discharge of fluid from the facility.
Efforts would be taken to contain and recover the fluid using absorbent materials, and if
necessary, the emergency response contractor would be contacted for assistance. In the event of
a release, facility personnel shall document the event on an Environmental Incident Report
indicating the date and time of the release, the release circumstances, the amount of the material
released, and any actions taken. Any reclaimed fluid would be properly stored until it can be
safely shipped off -site for treatment/disposal. The report should indicate the name of the
transporter and the waste treatment/disposal facility. Written records will be kept for a period of
three years.
18

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
These same procedures will be implemented in the event of a spill of any materials not covered by these
plans that could contaminate stormwater within the South or East Outfall Drainage areas. This includes
spills of non -hazardous solid or liquid waste. Non -hazardous solid wastes that have spilled outdoors are
immediately swept up and properly disposed of. Spill kits are located throughout the site, and are utilized
to clean up liquid spills. Spill kits shall contain: an inventory of contents, PPE, spill clean-up materials.
When materials from the spill kit are used in response to a spill, the party using the materials is
responsible to replace those items
General spill response procedures include:
• Assess if it is safe to contain the spill, and if there are stormwater drains nearby that could be
impacted by the spill. If stormwater drains are nearby, cover them and contain the spill.
• Notify supervisor of the spill and call 7654.
• Security will notify the appropriate personnel and notify janitorial to clean up the spill. Janitorial is
responsible for cleaning up all spills on site, with the exception of small spills that may be safely
and easily be cleaned up by site personnel
Notification: In the event of a nonconformance, notification shall be made in accordance with corporate
standard ES 2100 (See Appendix G). A significant release requires immediate notification to Senior
Management in accordance with Bridgestone's Emergency Action Report requirements within one hour,
where possible.
6 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND GOOD
HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAM
6.1 Good Housekeeping
Good housekeeping practices offer a practical and cost-effective way to maintain a clean and orderly
facility to prevent potential pollution sources from coming into contact with stormwater. Good
housekeeping practices also help to enhance safety and improve the overall work environment. Per
Section II.A.4 of the Permit, the SWPPP must include a Good Housekeeping Program. The following
activities should be included in an effective Good Housekeeping Program:
• Regular pickup and disposal of waste materials and scrap equipment;
• Maintenance of clean work spaces;
• Routine inspections for leaks and of the condition of drums, tanks, and containers;
• Routine inspections to make sure that industrial materials are properly stored and labelled;
• A schedule for sweeping paved areas and floors, including who will perform the sweeping
(employee or contractor);

prior. A single storm event may have a period of no precipitation of up to 10 hours. In the event data for
significant storm events cannot be collected and submitted due to adverse weather conditions, such as
dangerous weather or drought, a sample will be substituted from a separate qualifying storm event in the
next period. In that event, the data for the substitution event must be submitted along with the routine
data from the latter sample period. A letter report for the period in which a sample could not be obtained
must still be submitted to the State of North Carolina stating, "No Flow".
8.1.3 Results of Analytical Monitoring
The sampling results are required to be sent to the Division on Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) no
later than 30 days from the date the results are received from the laboratory. An Annual Summary Data
Monitoring Report is required to be submitted to the appropriate DEQ Regional Office in February of each
year and should be submitted on forms supplied by the Division. The results of Analytical Monitoring at
the East and South Outfalls for the last three years is included in Appendix I.
8.2 Qualitative Monitoring Requirements
8.2.1 Monitoring Frequency
The Facility's stormwater discharges associated with industrial activities must be semi-annually monitored
qualitatively during each year of permit coverage. Semi-annual monitoring periods are designated in the
stormwater permit as follows:

data from the latter sample period. A letter report for the period in which a sample could not be obtained
must still be submitted to the State of North Carolina stating, "No Flow".
8.2.3 Results of Qualitative Monitoring
In the event that an atypical condition is discovered at an outfall during a qualitative monitoring event, the
suspected cause of the condition is investigated, and any corrective actions must be documented and
kept with the SWP3. The results of Qualitative Monitoring at the East and South Outfalls for the last three
years are included in Appendix J.
9 FACILITY INSPECTIONS AND RECORD -KEEPING
Inspections of the Facility and all stormwater systems are performed as part of the Preventative
Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. The Permit requires that these inspections be
performed semi-annually, once during the first half of the year (January through June) and once during
the second half of the year (July through December). Any condition that requires remedial action will be
addressed as soon as practical and documented on the Facility Inspection Form (blank forms included in
Appendix H). A report is generated that summarizes the inspection results and any follow-up actions,
and includes the date and time of the inspection and inspector's name and a narrative description of the
facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of completed inspections
and corrective actions are included in this SWP3 in Appendix K.
Records will be kept onsite with the SWP3 for year of origination plus five years. These records shall
include monitoring and measurement records, inspection records, maintenance activity records,
25

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
employee training records, records of any logs of sampling data, and records of any activities to
implement any BMP's associated with industrial activities of the site.
In addition, the Facility's SPCC Plan requires that all ASTs, portable containers, and transfer equipment
must be inspected monthly by an SPCC-trained employee. Records of these inspections will be kept
onsite and any necessary repairs will be documented.
As required by RCRA, the Facility currently operates under a Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan,
Document No. 983-048-mmddyy, which requires weekly regulatory inspections and record keeping of
sites containing hazardous waste.

shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or the team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and dated
by each individual acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A responsible
Part II Page 2 of 10

Permit No. NCS000370
person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to
contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the
facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, an oil Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC) may be a component of the SPRP,
but may not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The
common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated.by reference into the
SPRP.
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program_ A preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program shall be developed. The program i:iall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacer,
surface waters and wetlands, -industrial activity areas (including material storage arcaq
material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas, loading and_ unloading af_ e z-, and
haul roads), all drainage features and structures, and existing structural BMPs. The
program shall establish schedules of inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping
activities of stormwater control systems, as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present a potential for stormwater exposure or stormwater pollution.
Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall
be incorporated into the program. Timely compliance with the established schedules for
inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP. _ .
S. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response

design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual
basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of
pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The
annual update shall include written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been
evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. Each annual update shall
include a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the BMPs listed in the BMP
Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan.

Introduction
Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC (BATO), previously named Bridgestone Firestone
Inc., operates under an individual National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permit, number NCS000370. The original permit was issued in April 1999 and the permit went
into effect on May 1, 1999 with the renewal expiring June 30, 2010. A renewed permit was
issued August 27, 2010 with an effective date of September 1, 2010 and an expiration date of
August 31, 2015. The current permit has a requirement for the development and submittal of a
Best Management Practice (BMP) Management Plan as described in Section II.E of the permit
(which can be found in Attachment 1 for reference). The contents of this document are intended
to fulfill this requirement of the permit.
This BMP Management Plan includes a description of how the facility has evaluated the
potential sources of storm water pollutants through facility inspections, sampling, and review of
historical data. Furthermore, the Plan describes BMPs that have been already been initiated at the
facility in response to these studies, and planned BMPs. Finally, this plan closes with a
suggested path forward and requests for approval of the BMP Management Plan.
Site Description
The surface runoff at the facility is collected on -site and discharged via two outfalls to separate
surface water bodies. The first drainage system is collected in the ditch located near the
southwest corner of the property and is discharged to a tributary of Toisnot Swamp. This outfall
is referred to as the South outfall. Surface runoff from the northern portion of the site is collected
in a ditch located on the north side which drains to a series of two storm water retention ponds
located near the northeast property corner. Runoff from the eastern portion of the site is
collected via an enclosed drainage system which outlets into the same retention ponds. These
ponds discharge to White Swamp via the East outfall. Refer to the map in the figures section of
this report for a visual layout of the facility. The map displays the locations of industrial
activities, including: storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas and loading/unloading
areas; drainage areas for each of the two outfalls (South and East), building locations, and
impervious surfaces.
Background Information
The current permit is effective from September 1, 2010 through August 31, 2015. The permit
has monitoring requirements for several analytes including zinc, chemical oxygen demand
(COD), TSS, total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH), and pH. The permit also has 10 prescribed
monitoring periods, with the first of the two semi-annual monitoring events required between
September and February, and the second event occurring between March and August of the
respective calendar year. The permit requires that all analytes, be compared to their benchmark
values, as shown in the table below. However, zinc is not required to be compared to its
benchmark until monitoring event 5 which will occur during Year 3, Period 1 (between
September 2012 and February 2013). The tables below show the benchmarks for this permit as
well as the results for the monitoring event which has been completed in accordance with the
monitoring schedule.

The previous version of the permit which was effective from July 1, 2005 and expired June 30,
2010 required sampling of zinc, TSS, oil/grease, and pH. The permit required 9 sampling events
which had to occur between September and November and between April and June. The
benchmarks and monitoring results for this permit are also presented in the tables below.

1) The zinc benchmark in the previous version of the permit was 0.117 mg/L. Additionally, zinc does not have
to be compared to the current benchmark until monitoring period for Year 3, Period 1 (September 2012 —
February 2013).
2) Monitoring for COD was included as a new requirement in the permit issued in 2010. This parameter was
not required to be monitored for the last version of the permit.
3) The previous version of the permit required analysis of oil and grease, while the new version of the permit
requires monitoring of TPH.
After evaluating the sampling results, zinc and TSS have been identified as compounds of
concern at the facility. Although the facility has experienced some high oil/grease results,
exceedances of the benchmark has not occurred for several years and is believed to be controlled
by the facility's activities under its SWP3. The facility experienced a result slightly above the
benchmark for COD in the South outfall, however since it is only one result, the parameter is not
a compound of concern. The facility has also seen few instances of pH exceedances which may
be attributed to the acidic nature of ambient rainfall and is therefore also not a parameter of
concern. Additionally, the facility has and will continue to monitor for sources of low pH and
high COD through its SWP3, analytical monitoring program, and visual monitoring and
inspection program.
The following section documents the facility's aggressive efforts to determine the source of the
zinc and TSS contamination.

Potential Sources of Zinc and TSS Contamination
In the facility's SWP3, the potential sources of zinc are identified as coming from handling of
dry chemicals in the mixing and receiving departments. This determination was made after a
review of the chemical constituents of BATO's raw materials as reported on MSDSs. A pigment
material used to manufacture tires was identified to have some of the highest zinc concentrations
of all raw materials used at the facility. The ways in which these materials are utilized in the
manufacturing process may result in air emissions which could be contributing to zinc and TSS
concentrations in storm water runoff. The following describes how the materials are used in the
mixing department and why this has been isolated as a key contributor of zinc.
The mixing and receiving departments are located the east side of the facility (refer to map in the
figures section of the document, the department location is labeled Receiving Building). The
building has 3 floors and a mezzanine floor. The first floor of the department includes an indoor
railcar unloading area, and also includes an area in which mixed rubber is coated with a liquid
material and palletized. The mezzanine floor, second floor, and third floor have areas where dry
chemicals and other raw materials are handled for pre -weighing and loading into one of four
mixers. Particulates of the dry chemicals are generated from loading of chemicals into the
mixers, from the mixing process (agitation of the materials inside the mixers as the materials are
combined into a semi -solid state), and from the mixed rubber material discharge from the mixers.
These emissions are vented through various emissions points in the roof and through fan
exhausts in the building which create air flow to the outside. All of the emission points from the
mixers (which duct to the roof) had been constructed with dust collectors for particulate control,
except for the 621 mixer discharging area, which was identified as a potential sources of zinc.
Additionally, exhaust fans pull ambient air through the department by drawing air into the
building on the north side and pushing it out of the building on the south side. This fan system
improves indoor air quality, but could be pushing fugitive particulate emissions including
pigment out of the building. The mixing area's emission points (controlled and uncontrolled) and
fugitive emissions have therefore been documented as a potential source of zinc.
Furthermore, the facility initiated informal facility inspections in addition to the required formal
inspections to investigate further potential sources of zinc. The informal inspections consisted of
walking around outside the facility and surveying for potential sources of storm water
contamination. The formal inspections, as required in the SWP3, occur semi-annually after the
storm water rain event for quantitative analysis and also involve surveying the facility for
potential storm water contamination sources, housekeeping issues, and containment areas for
outdoor tank farms. In 2007 and 2008, the facility identified and tested additional potential
sources of zinc in the storm water drainage identified during these inspections, including:
• Standing puddles of water on the powerhouse roof,
• Standing puddles of water on the warehouse roof,
• Runoff from gutter and drains exiting the warehouse roof,
• Furnace slag along the railroad tracks,
• Sand/gravel along the railroad tracks and gravel parking area near the warehouse, and

• Final mix discharging area on the 621 mixer roof vent (uncontrolled emission point of
dry chemical handling)
The results of this sampling indicate that the final mix discharging area on the 621 mixer roof
vent could be contributing to the zinc concentrations in the storm water outfalls. Although the
run off for the mixing area discharges to the East outfall, the ditch draining the southern portion
of the facility originates close to the Receiving building. Therefore, particulate emissions during
dry weather may drift into the drainage basin of the South outfall and affect this outfall also. In
addition to the point source emissions from this uncontrolled roof vent, the facility also
determined that fugitive emissions are being exhausted out of the south side of the mixing
department (in the direction of the South outfall drainage ditch) using fan systems which are in
place to improve indoor air quality. The facility determined that the other locations and materials
which were sampled did not warranted further action for zinc control at this time.
The facility has also evaluated potential sources of TSS within the drainage to the South outfall.
During the inspections, it was determined that additional controls were likely needed in sections
of the south drainage ditch which are located near a gravel trailer parking lot. This parking lot
experiences a lot of truck traffic which generates dust. Additionally, the railroad spur upon which
the facility receives some raw materials, is located in this area.
The following section documents the facility's implemented and proposed BMPs which include
structural controls for potential sources of zinc and TSS.
Implemented and Proposed BMPs
As documented in the previous section, the facility determined that an uncontrolled emissions
point associated with the dry chemical handling on the 621 mixer could be contributing to the
storm water zinc concentrations. The facility determined that an air quality device was needed to
control the 621 mixer emission. The facility submitted a permit application for a baghouse on
this emission point to the North Carolina Division of Air Quality in November of 2009. An air
quality permit authorizing the construction and installation of this dust collector was issued on
January 4, 2010 under air quality permit ID # 01660T60. The facility attempted to install this
dust collector, but encountered engineering issues with the installation.
The facility's Engineering Department determined that a different type of control device would
have to be installed to overcome the engineering challenges with the dust collector. It was
determined that a baghouse would better control the discharging (BD-1) emission point on the
621 mixer. The Environmental Engineering Department submitted another permit application in
April of 2010 proposing to install a baghouse which would control emissions from both sources.
The facility was issued a permit authorizing the construction and installation of this baghouse on
June 28, 2010 under air quality permit ID # 01660T62. The facility has worked to construct,
install, and engineer this equipment for successful operation. The installation is currently on-
going and the anticipated startup date of this equipment is April 15, 2011. The baghouse is
expected to control > 95% particulate, therefore it is expected that zinc emissions from this
emission point would be reduced by this percentage as well.

In addition to the installation of the baghouse, the facility installed rip -rap in the ditch adjacent to
the railroad tracts leading to the South outfall. The rip -rap was installed on 12/2/2010. The
facility anticipates that the rip -rap will settle more solids before the water reaches the South
outfall, reducing zinc and TSS concentrations at the outfall.
In addition to the two BMPs described, the facility is planning an additional structural BMP to
further control zinc emissions. As discussed above, there is a fan exhaust system in the mixing
and receiving department to maintain healthy indoor air quality. The facility has concluded that
the fan system may result in fugitive emissions of dry chemicals (including pigment). In order to
control these emissions, the facility is proposing to install fabric filters over the fan screens to
capture particulate emissions prior to the air stream being vented to the ambient air. The filters
would be maintained and changed on a regular basis to ensure their effectiveness.
Conclusion and Requests Moving Forward
As demonstrated by the contents of this plan, the facility proactively initiated investigations to
identify potential sources of elevated zinc and TSS concentrations in the storm water outfalls and
has implemented the dust collector and rip -rap structural controls and increased training on
pollution prevention practices. Additionally, the facility proposes to install filters on the exhaust
fan system to the Receiving Building. Whereas the dust collector and rip -rap controls were
recently installed, no storm water sampling to evaluate their efficacy has yet been completed.
BATO is also planning to install fabric filters on the fan exhaust system of the Receiving
Building. BATO believes these controls will significantly reduce the zinc and TSS discharged in
both the South and East outfalls.
In light of the schedule included in the requirements for the BMP Management Plan in Part II.E
of the permit, BATO requests DWQ review and approve the plans to implement the fabric filters.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this document is to provide maintenance requirements for the installed stormwater best
management practices (BMPs) at the Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC (BATO) plant in
Wilson, North Carolina (BATO-Wilson). The facility has multiple stormwater BMPs and stormwater
structures which receive runoff discharge from the facility. Refer to stormwater retrofit plans for design
plans and detail for the stormwater BMPs onsite. To allow these features to properly function, proper
inspection and maintenance is required. The following BMPs and stormwater features installed on site are
the following:
• Stormwater Wet Pond
• Stormwater Dry Pond
• Stormwater Vegetated Swales
Maintenance procedures outlined in this document have been compiled for the onsite BMPs based on
guidance provided within the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality Stormwater Design
Manual. https:Hdeg.nc.aov/sw-bmp-manual
1 STORMWATER WET POND
Important maintenance procedures for wet ponds include:
1. Immediately after the wet pond is established, the plants on the vegetated shelf and perimeter of
the basin should be watered twice weekly as needed, until the plants become established
(commonly six weeks).
2. No portion of the wet pond should be fertilized after the first initial fertilization that is required to
establish the plants on the vegetated shelf.
3. Stable groundcover should be maintained in the drainage area to reduce the sediment load to the
wet pond.
4. If the pond must be drained for an emergency or to perform maintenance, the flushing of
sediment through the emergency drain should be minimized as much as possible.
5. Once a year, a dam safety expert should inspect the embankment.
After the wet pond is established, it should be inspected once a quarter. Records of operation and
maintenance should be kept in a known set location and must be available upon request. Inspection
activities shall be performed as described in Table 1. Any problems that are found shall be repaired
immediately.

2 STORMWATER DRY POND
Important maintenance procedures for stormwater dry ponds include:
• The drainage area will be managed to reduce the sediment load to the dry extended detention
basin.
• Immediately after the dry extended detention basin is established, the vegetation will be watered
twice weekly as needed until the plants become established (commonly six weeks).
• No portion of the dry extended detention pond will be fertilized after the first initial fertilization that
is required to establish the vegetation.
• Maintain the vegetation in and around the basin at a height of approximately 6 inches. -
• Once a year, a dam safety expert will inspect the embankment.
After the dry extended detention basin is established, it will be inspected once a quarter and within 24
hours after every storm event greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County). Records
of operation and maintenance will be kept in a known set location and will be available upon request.
Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Inspection activities shall be performed as described in
Table 2. Any problems that are found shall be repaired immediately

Appendix G
Spill Response Procedures
BRIDGESTONE PLANT - SPILL OR DISCHARGE RESPONSE PROCEDURE
Fuel or Process Oil Storage Tanks and Unloading System
Spill response and cleanup for a release from any of the storage tanks or any piping within the
dike walls will consist of -
Immediately notify the SPCC Officer and other nearby SPCC-trained personnel
• Stopping the flow of oil by isolating the leak point if possible by closing a valve in the
transfer line, shutting down the transfer pump, or closing a valve, e.g., site glass on the
storage tank
• Transferring the oil to other containers such as oil trucks if the tank itself has failed
• Once, the oil flow has stopped, the oil in the dike can be recovered and either returned to
the oil supplier or returned to the storage tank
• The dike floor and walls will require cleaning to remove any residual oil
• All wastes generated during spill response and cleanup will need to be disposed of
properly. Contact the SPCC officer or Engineering Manager for assistance.
Spill response and cleanup for a release outside the diked areas will consist of:
• Immediately notify the SPCC Officer and other nearby SPCC-trained personnel
• Stopping the transfer of oil by shutting down the transfer pumps
• Capturing the leaking oil into containers if possible
• Draining oil from any overhead lines into barrels if necessary
• Replacing the section of leaking pipe and testing the integrity of the transfer system
• Cleaning up any released oil that is on concrete or gravel area
• All wastes generated during spill response and cleanup will need to be disposed of
properly. Contact the SPCC officer or Engineering Manager for assistance.
Spill response and cleanup for a release from the oil delivery truck during unloading will consist
of:
Small Release - If a small release occurs due to hose or connection failure, the response should
be:

• Closing the valve on the truck to prevent any further release
• Capturing any leaking oil into a drum or drums that should be available as part of the
unloading process
• Cleaning up any released oil that is on concrete or asphalt
• All wastes generated during spill response and cleanup will need to be disposed of
properly. Contact the SPCC officer or Engineering Manager for assistance.
Major Release - If the tank truck fails (e.g., failed drain valve) and releases large quantities of oil,
the response should be:
• Immediately notify the SPCC Officer and other nearby SPCC-trained personnel
• Verifying that oil is contained within the tanker unloading containment area
• Transferring the oil to another container such as an oil truck or the storage tank as quickly
as possible
• Recovering the oil for disposal or recycling
• Cleaning up any released oil that is on concrete, asphalt, or gravel
• All wastes generated during spill response and cleanup will need to be disposed of
properly. Contact the SPCC officer or Engineering Manager for assistance.
For all oil releases, a determination must be made by the SPCC Officer if the release is
reportable. An Incident Report must be completed with recommendations to prevent any
recurrence.
Drum or Tote Storage Areas
Spill response and cleanup for a release from 55-gallon drums or 300-gallon totes will consist of -
Immediately notify the SPCC Officer and other nearby SPCC-trained personnel
• Rotating the leaking drum to prevent any further release
• Transferring the contents to another container
• Cleaning up any released oil that is on concrete
• Properly disposing of oil adsorbents that were used in cleanup
• All wastes generated during spill response and cleanup will need to be disposed of
properly. Contact the SPCC officer or environmental engineer for assistance.

As noted in the DMR submittal for the Year 2 Period 2 sampling event, an initial sample was taken on August 25,
2012. However, it was determined that the samples were not taken within the first 30 minutes of discharge. A
repeat sample was taken during the next representative storm event (09/06/12) to ensure the samples are taken
in accordance with permit requirements. The results of this repeat sampling event were counted as the Year 2,
Period 2 sampling.

SUMMARY OF VISUAL MONITORING RESULTS
This section documents a summary of the qualitative monitoring required by Part II Section C of the
current NPDES permit. The qualitative monitoring requires that 2 observations each year (one in the
spring, one in the fall) be performed at each of the stormwater discharge outfalls (South and East). The
qualitative monitoring performed during the term of this permit was performed twice each year and
included monitoring for color, odor, clarity, floating solids, suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, erosion,
and other obvious indicators of stormwater pollution. The table below summarizes the results of all
required monitoring. Please note that the tenth and final sample required by the current permit has not
been conducted as of the time of this submittal. Results for this sample will be submitted within 30 day
of receipt of laboratory results.
Note: For monitoring of clarity, floating solids, and suspended solids, a numerical scaled rating is applied.
The following documents the scale used for each parameter:
• Clarity: 1 is clear and 10 is very cloudy
• Floating solids: 1 is no solids and 10 is the surface is covered in floating solids
• Suspended solids: 1 is no solids and 10 is extremely muddy

SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
BATO-Wilson implements stormwater management practices to reduce the source of potential
stormwater pollutants whenever practicable. The specific stormwater management practices for the
industrial activities in the South Drainage Areas and East Drainage Areas are summarized in the
following text.
East Outfall BMPs
All stormwater from Drainage Area East discharges to a stormwater-settling pond. This pond has two
containment booms in series to contain and collect any floating pollutants. An absorbent boom
precedes the containment booms.
BATO Wilson NPDES Permit Renewal Application Page 11 of 18

Zinc oxide and other zinc compounds are managed in the East Drainage Area. All handling, including
unloading of zinc oxide and other zinc compounds, are done inside the mixing building. The Facility
utilizes zinc oxide in 2,500-pound sacks and occasionally 50-pound bags. All baghouse equipment that
collects zinc compound dust is regularly inspected for proper operation and promptly repaired as
needed. All empty waste zinc oxide and other zinc compound bags are disposed of in an enclosed
compactor container, then these packages are cover with plastic to the temporally storage area until
departure for recycle. In 2011, filters were installed on exhaust fans in the mixing area to reduce dust.
Additionally, stormwater drains outside mixing area were covered with hay bales that are replaced
every other month. In 2011 BATO installed a dust collector which has been in operation since November
19th 2011.The wax/lube oil unloading areas are curbed areas designed for unloading tanker trucks or rail
car tankers. The curbed areas are sized to contain the contents of a tanker truck or rail car tanker plus
precipitation. This area drains to the stormwater settling ponds. The wax/lube oil storage tanks are
located inside covered secondary containment areas. The containment areas are sized to contain the
contents of the largest tank plus precipitation. Any stormwater collected within these containment
areas is pumped out to the oil/water separator (0/WS) for treatment.
The process solvent unloading area and tank farm are roofed and are surrounded by concrete dikes
sized to contain the contents of a tanker truck and the largest tank, respectively. Because this area is
roofed, very little stormwater comes into contact with the unloading or storage facilities. The secondary
containment for each solvent tank is equipped with a sump and pump to collect overspill and rainwater.
Fluids ponding in the containment structures are collected in sumps. The secondary solvent
containment areas and sumps are checked weekly. Any collected rainwater is either allowed to dry or
checked for the presence of solvents and then, if found to be solvent free, pumped out.
Drummed hazardous waste at the drummed hazardous waste storage area is stored in a roofed area so
as not to be exposed to stormwater. What stormwater does come into contact with the hazardous
waste storage area is generally allowed to dry unless hazardous waste were to be spilled into the
stormwater. In this event, the contaminated stormwater would be collected and disposed as hazardous
waste. The drain from this area is permanently plugged.
The storage area for totes of organic liquid is located beside the hazardous waste 90-day storage area.
This area has a dike around it except for the entrance. Flow to a storm drain would be north, then east
and then south. A spill in this area can be isolated by berming the entrance to the area. This area is also
under roof.
A tote of bleach is located outside within a containment dike. Stormwater collected is pumped to the
process water sump for use as process water.
The railroad unloading area is inside a portion of the factory designed to contain several rail cars. All
unloading activities are indoors and protected from stormwater. Therefore, no stormwater contact
occurs during the unloading operation.
The truck unloading docks are equipped with side baffles. Trucks unloading bags and totes at the docks
back up to the docks such that materials which are unloaded are not exposed to stormwater.
BATO Wilson NPDES Permit Renewal Application Page 12 of 18

The containment structures of the process oil tanks are equipped with sumps for collection of overspill,
dumped condensate, and rainwater. Water and product accumulations collected in the sumps are
pumped to the plant's O/WS for treatment.
The scrap manufacturing equipment stored in the East Drainage Area has the potential for contributing
pollutants to stormwater if the scrap equipment is greasy, leaking oil, or rusting. To mitigate this, an
equipment removal procedure is in place that requires equipment to be completely drained and free
from leaks prior to being released for storage and scrapping. For additional assurance, during the
periodic housekeeping inspections, the storage area and equipment capable of contributing pollutants
to stormwater are visually inspected to verify there are no leaks.
The oil demister area near mixing is inspected weekly as part of the SPCC inspection. The area is cleaned
periodically to minimize oil exposure to stormwater. Containment has been installed with oil/water
separation for stormwater.
The #6 fuel oil unloading station is roofed. The fill connections of the unloading tanker truck are
contained within a concrete curbed area. The curbed area is sized to contain the contents of a tanker
truck plus precipitation. The fuel oil storage tank farm is roofed and enclosed within a containment dike
sized to contain the contents of the largest tank plus precipitation. In the event of heavy rainfall, if
stormwater collects in the containment, the oily water is pumped out and taken away by a qualified
contractor.
South Outfall BMPs
The south outfall consists of the following potential sources for stormwater contamination: drum and
used oil storage, air compressor condensate, lube oil storage area, gasoline storage tank, and truck
loading/unloading areas.
Any stormwater that gets into the drum storage area or the used oil storage area of the used oil/sludge
storage building is pumped to a tank or tote and taken to the oil/water separator or pumped out by a
contractor. This area is inspected weekly.
Condensate and/or stormwater that get in the air compressor containment are pumped out by a
contractor. This area is inspected weekly.
Stormwater that gets into the tube Oil Storage Building is pumped to the curbed oil/water separation
pit. This area is inspected weekly.
The containment and oil/water separation pit at the gasoline storage tank are inspected weekly. The oil
trap at the gasoline tank is cleaned as needed as determined by the weekly inspection.
Trucks loading tires at the warehouse loading docks back up to the docks such that the tires are not
exposed to stormwater. There is also a large gravel truck parking lot located on the south side of the
warehouse.
BATO Wilson NPDES Permit Renewal Application Page 13 of 18

For those materials that must be stored outside, not under cover and not within a bermed area, spill kits
are readily available and employees who handle materials are trained in procedures to minimize the risk
of spills as well as in proper spill response actions.
SIGNIFICANT FACILITY CHANGES
The facility has undergone some changes during the last 5 years which have potential impacts on
stormwater runoff. These changes have been documented in the facility's SWPPP and are summarized
in this section.
• BATO was not able to continue using reclaimed water due to its quality and it caused
several issues with equipment. It was also more expensive due to extra materials
required to improve its quality.
• A 150-gallon diesel fuel AST is also housed adjacent to the gasoline tank. This fuel tank is
owned by landscaping contractor.

Re: Stormwater Sampling Year 4, Period 2 (Sample 8) Analytical Results
Dear Mr. Parnell:
Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC ("Bridgestone") Wilson Plant operates
under National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit number
NCS000370. The permit requires semi-annual quantitative sampling of stormwater at
the facility's two outfalls. The outfalls are named by their geographic locations, South
and East. The 4th year, 2nd period (Sample 8) stormwater sample was due to be taken
between March 1, 2014 and August 31, 2014. Due to emergency events at our facility,
we did not collect Sample 8 during the sampling period. Per the instructions you gave
the Bridgestone Wilson Plant during our November 5, 2014 phone conference, we
proceeded to collect the sample on November 17, 2014 and are submitting the attached
analytical results by way of this letter.
The Bridgestone Wilson Plant regrets the delay in collecting samples during the
specified timeframe, but confirms there were no unusual circumstances during the
March 1 —August 31, 2014 period that would be expected to have impacted any
stormwater quality during that timeframe, other than the fire events described below and
for which the Department conducted an onsite review. For instance, during your on -site
visit on May 22, 2014, there was confirmation that stormwater BMPs were in place and
working properly. As mentioned above, on June 28, 2014 and July 5, 2014 Bridgestone
Wilson Plant suffered two fires, for both of which we provided notice to NCDENR. In
response, you visited the plant on July 1, 2014 with Mr. Cheng Zhang of NCDENR's
Division of Water Resources to review Bridgestone's firewater collection and cleanup
activities. No issues were found during that site visit.
As you likely noted during your visit, we were extremely busy with fire response
activities, which continued for the remainder of July, and unfortunately a human error
happened in overlooking the sampling event scheduled for stormwater Sample 8. The
Bridgestone Wilson Plant has an electronic compliance calendar, which is being
upgraded to improve its functionality to prevent similar cases.
