the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to rainfall and rui omfliSwsR Wherever practical, the
permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage•areas, material handling operations,
l 4�K
and manufacturing or fueling operations. In,areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, this review shall document,the fed` ibility of diverting the stormwater
run-on away from areas of potential con amina ion.
t�
(b) Secondary Containment RequirementsRequire"'ments and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk. storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313
of Title III of the SuperfiiidAmeridments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water
priority chemicals: and stcorage!in anty amount of hazardous substances in order to
prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table or summary
of all such tanks andtored materials and their associated secondary containment
areas shall be maintaFined.,�lf the secondary containment devices are connected to
stormwater conveyancersy tems, the connection shall be controlled by manually
activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a
locking mechanism). Any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area
shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible
sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater.
Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by any
material. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the
description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release
shall be kept for a period of five (5) years. For facilities subject to a federal oil Spill
Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC), any portion of the SPCC Plan
fully compliant with the requirements of this permit maybe used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on data collected

written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the
selected site BMPs. The BMA Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually.'
3. Spill Prevention and Response Procedures. The Spill Prevention and Response
Procedures (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based
on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel 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
increased 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 sufficienfto 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. `f f \� A�. ;
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program-,shall,be,developed and implemented.
The program shall address all stormwater,,control systems (if applicable), stormwater
discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent su"rface�waters and wetlands, industrial
activity areas (including material storage areas material handling areas, disposal areas,

SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1.
All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a measureable storm event at Bach
stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). Only SDOs discharging stormwater associated with
industrial activity must be sampled (See Definitions).
A measurable storm event is a storm event that results in an actual discharge from the
permitted site outfall. The previous measurable storm event must have been at least 72 hours
prior. The 72-hour storm interval does not apply if the permittee is able to document that a shorter
interval is representative for local storm events during the sampling period, and the permittee
obtains approval from the local DEMLR Regional Engineer. See Definitions.

this permit is revoked or rescindedf the facility is monitoring monthly because of Tier Two or Three
response actions under the previous permit, the facility shall continue a monthly monitoring and
reporting schedule in Tier Two or Tier Three status until relieved by the provisions of this permit or
the Division.
2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. When physical separation between
outfalls prevents collecting all samples within the first 30 minutes, sampling shall begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless
representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted. A copy of the Division's letter granting ROS shall be
kept on site.
4 For each sampled measureable storm event, the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain gauge
is required. Where isolated sites are unmanned for extended periods of time, a local rain gauge reading
may be substituted for an on -site reading.
The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule
specified below in Table 2, unless adverse weather conditions prevent sample collection
(see Adverse Weather in Definitions). Sampling is not required outside of the facility's
normal operating hours. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period 1 and Period 2
sample dates, unless monthly monitoring has been instituted under a "Tier Two"
response. Inability to sample because of adverse weather conditions must be documented
Part 11 Page 5 of 12

Permit No. NCS000528
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken -within the monitoring period (see Part III, Section--E). -However, for purposes
of benchmark comparison and Tiered response actions, the permittee shall use the
analytical results from the first sample with valid results within the monitoring period.

Failure to monitor semi-annually per permit terms may result in the Division requiring
monthly monitoring for all parameters for a specified time period. "No discharge" from an
outfall during a monitoring period does not constitute failure to monitor, as long as it is
properly recorded and reported.
The permittee shall compare monitoring results to the benchmark values in Table 3.
Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase
management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management
Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. See below the descriptions of Tier One, Tier Two, and
Tier Three response actions below. In the event that the Division releases the permittee from
continued monthly monitoring and reporting under Tier Two or Tier Three, the Division's
release letter may remain in effect through subsequent reissuance of this permit, unless the
release letter provides for other conditions or duration.

The benchmark values in Table 3 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for
implementation of the permittee's SPPP. An exceedance of a stormwater benchmark value
is not a permit violation; however, failure to respond to: the exceedance as outlined in this
permit is a violation of permit conditions.
Tier One
If: The first valid sampling results are above a benchmaek.value, or outside of the benchmark range, for
any parameter at anv outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Conduct a stormwater management'inspee,66 of the facility within two weeks of receiving
sampling results. ~�
2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select t e specific feasible: source controls, operational controls, or physical
improvements to reduce=concentrations of the parameters of concern, and/or to bring
concentrations within the benchmark range.
4. Implement the selected feasible actions within two months of the inspection.
S. Record each instance of'a-Tier One response in the SPPP. Include the date and value of the
benchmark exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting the inspection, the selected
actions, and the date the selected actions were implemented.
6. Note: Benchmark exceedances for a different parameter separately trigger a tiered response.

Tier Two
If. The first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods are above the benchmark -
values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One.
2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring and reporting for all parameters. The permittee shall
conduct monthly monitoring at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue
until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within benchmark range.
3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly
monitoring report indicating "No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements.
4. 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 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.
5. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in t*SPPRK ��i,,
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations througlioutpthe petm t renewal process.

Tier Three
If: The valid sampling results required for the pe'r'initmoniforing periods exceed the benchmark
value, or are outside the benchmark range, for arty specifi3c.parameter at an specific outfall on four
p Y P
occasions, the permittee shall notify the DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 30 days of receipt of
the fourth analytical results; , C s��
Then: The Division may but is notYliinitedjto,,: ^
+ require that the permittee evi a increase, or decrease the monitoring and reporting frequency for
some or all of the parameters herein,,
• require sampling of additional or substitute parameters;
• require the permittee,td((;install st uctural stormwater controls;
• require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures;
• require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize impacts
on receiving waters; or
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion;
• require the permittee to continue Tier Three obligations through the permit renewal process.
SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
The purpose of qualitative monitoring is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and identify new potential sources of stormwater
pollution. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls must be performed during a
measurable storm event.
Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of
representative outfall status. Qualitative monitoring shall be performed semi-annually as
specified in Table 4 (unless the permittee is required to perform further qualitative
monitoring per the Qualitative Monitoring Response, below). Inability to monitor
because of adverse weather conditions must be documented in the SPPP and recorded on
the Qualitative Monitoring Report form (see Adverse Weather in Definitions). Only SDOs
Part II Page 8 of 12

Permit No. NCS000528
discharging stormwater associated with industrial activity must be monitored (See
Definitions).
In the event an atypical condition is noted at a stormwater discharge outfall, the permittee
shall document the suspected cause of the condition and any actions taken in response to
the discovery. This documentation will be -maintained with the SPPP.

A minimum of 60 days must separate monitoring dates, unless additional sampling has
been instituted as part of other analytical monitoring requirements in this permit.
If the permittee's qualitative monitoring indicates that existing stormwater BMPs are
ineffective, or that significant stormwater contamination is present, the permittee shall
investigate potential causes, evaluate the feasibility of corrective actions, and implement
those corrective actions within 60 days, per the Qualitative Monitoring Response, below.
A written record of the permittee's investigation, evaluation, and response actions shall be
kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.

�QualitatlV@ Monitorink Resbonse
Qualitative monitoring is for the purposes of evaluating SPPP effectiveness, identifying new
potential sources of stormwater pollution, and prompting the permittee's response to pollution. If
the permittee repeatedly fails to respond effectively to correct problems identified by qualitative
monitoring, or if the discharge causes or contributes to a water quality standard violation, the
Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for some
or all parameters (analytical or qualitative)
• require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls;
require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures;
require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize
impacts on receiving waters; or 41
require the permittee implement site modifications to,qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.

1 Measurement Frequency: Twice per year during a measureable storm event (unless other provisions of
the permit prompt monthly sampling), until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods through the end of this
permitting cycle. If the facility is monitoring monthly because of Tier Two or Three response actions
under the previous permit, the facility shall continue a monthly monitoring and reporting schedule in
Tier Two or Tier Three status until relieved by the provisions of this permit or the Division.
2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. When physical separation
between outfalls prevents collecting all samples within the first 30 minutes, sampling shall be begun within
the first 30 minutes, and shall continue until completed.
Part I l Page 10 of 12

Permit No. NCS000528
Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) that discharges
stormwater runoff from area(s) where vehicle•maintenance activities,occur, unless representative outfall r
status (ROS) has been granted. A copy of the letter granting ROS shall be kept on site.
4 For each sampled measureable storm event the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain
gauge is required. Where isolated sites are unmanned for extended periods of time, a local rain guage may
be substituted for an on -site reading.
Failure to monitor semi-annually per permit terms may result in the Division requiring
monthly monitoring for all parameters for a specified time period, as provided in Part 1I
Section B.
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table 6. The benchmark
values in Table 6 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). Exceedances of benchmark values require
fe
the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record
keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Manage men t'\ act ces(BMPs), as provided in Part
II Section B.

6. Rationale for monitoring_ parameters:
o The Oil & Grease parameter for Vehicle Maintenance is changed to Non -Polar Oil &
Grease for consistency with other permits.
o pH monitoring is no longer required for discharges only associated with vehicle
maintenance activities.
7. Permit, Facility, and Owner Contacts updates:
® Confirmed contact information with permittee and updated BIMS if necessary.
® Obtained e-mail addresses for each contact and updated BIMS.
8. Annual Fees:
® Confirmed in BIMS that permittee does not owe fees.
Recommendations:
Based on the documents reviewed, the application information submitted on November 22,
2013 is sufficient to issue an Individual NPDES Stormwater Permit.
Central Office recommends reissuance of this permit with the same monitoring as the
previous cycle except for standard revisions to VMA monitoring for consistency with other
permits. The proposed draft permit reflects the most recent individual stormwater permit
template and boiler plate language, incorporating revisions that are similar to the industrial
general permits issued during 2012-13.

Dear Mr. Fulton: 2015
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility: Please review,.
the draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it
contains.
The draft permit contains the following significant changes from the facility's current permit:
1. You are required to collect analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during
"measurable storm events" as.defined in Part II, Section B. This term is different from
the "representative storm event" in earlier permits.
2. Requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Plan (SPPP) have been updated in Part II,
Section A.
3. Changes have been made to two monitoring parameters, including a change to one
benchmark. Stormwater benchmarks are not permit limits, but rather guidelines for
implementing the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). A benchmark
exceedance is not a permit violation; however, the permittee must respond to
exceedances as directed in the Tiers.
• The Oil & Grease parameter is changed to Non -polar Oil & Grease [EPA
Method 1664 (SGT-HEM)]; the benchmark for Non -polar Oil & Grease is 15
mg/L. This requirement appears in all individual stormwater permits; however,
it only applies to facilities that perform onsite vehicle maintenance activities. If

shall apply.
• pH monitoring is no longer required for discharges only associated with vehicle
maintenance activities.
4. The site map submitted with your renewal materials is insufficient. The locations of all
outfalls need to be indicated, as do topographic lines.
Please submit a copy of the revised site map, as required by Part II, Section A
(1)(c), to my attention at the address listed at the bottom of this letter within 30
days following receipt of this letter. Renewal of your permit may be delayed unless
we receive the revised site map.
Please review the draft permit and submit the requested documents and comments to me no later
than 30 days following your. receipt of the draft. Comments maybe emailed to meat

Dear Mr. Fulton:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft
very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains.
The draft permit contains the following significant items for this facility:
Analytical monitoring changes:
1. Analytical monitoring parameters have been added to this permit. They include TSS, COD, and pH.
2. All analyticat monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in
Part 11 Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge
occurs during the sampling period, the permittee trust submit a monitoring report indicating "No FIow"
within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a
minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record
keeping, and/ or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered prograin. if the
sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at
any outfall then the facility shall follow the.Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within
two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit,
the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific
parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the
Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute
monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples.
4. You are required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of
representative outfall status.
5. You are responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5. a
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall
parameter is in this permit; however.)
7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical
and qualitative monitoring. This requirement appears ill all Individual.Stormwater permits, however i�lQ-1 Carolina

only applies to facilities that do vehicle maintenance. If the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the
Y` permitted timeframe then the requirements shall apply.
t
Other permit changes:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants
in each outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of
significant spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfails have
been inspected to ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is
provided in Part II Section A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
More details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention flan have been specified in Part 11
Section A. The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that
the outfalls do not contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial
materials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR §122.26(g), the
facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit
requirements, Additional information is provided in Part I Section A.
Please submit any comments to me no later than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft.
Comments should be sent to the address listed at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are
received from the public or from you, this permit will .likely be issued in about two months.

VI. ADDITIONAL PREVENTION MEASURES
A. Preventive Maintenance
Premiere Fibers has developed a preventive maintenance program that involves
regular'inspection and maintenance of storm water management devices and other
equipment and systems.
B. Inspections
The Pollution Prevention Team members identified in Section IV will inspect the
equipment and areas of the facility as discussed in Table 2. Complete and
detailed records. of routine preventive maintenance inspections and associated
corrective action, repairs or replacements will be provided to the Pollution
Prevention Team leader, who will file there with other visual inspection records.
C. Spill Prevention Arid Response Procedures
Based on an assessment of - possible spill scenarios, the following material
handling procedures, storage requirements, containment/diversion equipment, and
spill cleanup procedures are specified because they will.minimize the potential for
spills and in the event of a spill, enable proper and timely response.
If a leak develops or a spill occurs, the employee who discovers the discharge will
contact his/her supervisor who will in turn contact the Pollution Prevention Team
leader. The Pollution Prevention Team will obtain the following information:
• Location of the spill or leak, material involved, and source (valve, pipe,
drum, etc.)
• The approximate amount spilled or estimates of the discharge rate and the
direction of discharge flow.
The Pollution Prevention Team leader will dispatch facility personnel to the spill
site to try to stop the leak and contain, divert and clean up the spill.
D. Management Of Runoff
Traditional storm water management practices that divert, infiltrate, reuse, or
otherwise manage. storm water runoff so as to -reduce the discharge of pollutants
do not appear to be reasonable and appropriate for the facility at this time.

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits:
• NCO088081
NC0001504117
2. General Observations:
• This is a new permit application for an existing facility.
• Materials stored outside include wooden pallets and storage trailers. FRO may want to see if this site
could qualify for No Exposure.
• There was a spinning lubricant release discovered in February 2007 adjacent to SDO-4. All liquid was
vacuumed out via a vac -truck. In April 2007, soil was excavated and landfilled. Sample was taken to
confirm there was no remaining material that posed a risk.
3. Impairment: The stream that this facility discharges to (Buffalo Creek) is not listed. However, it should be
noted that approximately 3 miles downstream, Buffalo Creek converges with a segment of the Pee -Dee River
that was listed on the 2008 draft 303(d) list for turbidity violations. This segment of the Pee -Dee River was just
removed in 2008 from the list for previous Low DO violations.
4. Threatened and Endangered: No T&E aquatic species. The Red -Cockaded Woodpecker (bird) is an endangered
species listed in the general area.
5. Analytical Monitoring Notes: One storm was sampled at 5 outfalls (SDO-1 through SDO-5). Parameters include
Oil & Grease, TSS, BOD, TKN, P, and COD. Majority of results are well below current benchmarks. TSS at
SDO-2 was over 3x the current benchmark. See table 1 in the attached application package. EPA's 2008
MSGP has monitoring for total Zinc, but Zinc is not used anywhere in the process.
6. Qualitative Monitoring_ Notes: None submitted.
Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Adding TSS, pH, COD to the analytical monitoring requirements. TSS added based on high value at SDO-2.
COD added based on one value of 79 mg/L, and because they had a release/spill.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow"within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier I and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
4. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part 11 Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
5. The permince is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
Page 3 of 5

NCS000528
Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi=annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part.II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The Permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as
the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this general permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
l . Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the
potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of
stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the.following:
(a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle. map or appropriately drafted
equivalent map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation
routes and surface waters, the name,of the receiving water(s) to which the
stormwater outfall(s) discharges, or,if the discharge is to a municipal separate
storm sewer system, the namefofth�e municipality and the ultimate receiving
waters, and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. The
general location'map.,(onalternatively the site map) shall identify whether each
receiving water is impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired waters) or is
located in a watersh—edfor jwhieh a TMDL has been established, and what the
parameter(s) of concern are.
North Carolina's 303(d) List can be found here:

controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be
secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates
in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam,
outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the
accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to
be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a

3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (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 Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC) may be a component of the SPRP,
but may not be sufficient to completely address the storrnwater 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. Apreventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program shall'be developed. The program shall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfall`s, all on -site and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas- (including material storage areas,
material handling areas, disposal areas, proees`s.areas,,loading and unloading areas, and
haul roads), all drainage features and struct es and'existing structural BMPs. The
program shall establish schedules of.inspectionsmaintenance, and housekeeping
activities of stormwater control systems,/as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present•a pdteritial for-stormwater exposure or stormwater pollution.
Inspection of material han'dling,arreas 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. /( ' A,�
5. 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
and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations
that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team)
responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their annual training
shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific
position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and
revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented
and position assignments provided.
7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan 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. 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 re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence
of non-stormwater discharges. Each annual update shall include a re-evaluation of the
Part I I Page 3 of 10

SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. All
analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required
monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of
the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO).
A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall
and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1
inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no
precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge,
and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the
next 10 hours. ,1\//f

Premiere Fibers - Ansonville
Anson County
Dear Mr. Fulton:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft
very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains.
The draft permit contains the following significant items for this facility:
Analytical monitoring chanzes:
1. Analytical monitoring parameters have been added to this permit. They include TSS, COD, and pI-I.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in
Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge
occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow"
within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be takers a
minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark
values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record
keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (I3MPs) ina tiered program. If the
sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at
any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which recluire a facility inspection within
twc;weeks and implementation of a,mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit,
the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific
parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the
Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute
monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark
value for two consecutive samples.
4. You are required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of
representative outfall status.
5. You are responsible for all monitoring until tie renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been. removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall
parameter is in this permit; itowt ver.1
7. Vehicle maintenance monitorinf; lw: ; bean revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical
and qualitative monitoring: 'E h.i:, requirement appears in all Individual Stormwater permits, however iothCaroti,ia

only applies to facilities that do vehicle maintenance. If the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the
permitted timeframe then the requirements shall apply.
Other permit changes:,
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants
in each outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of
significant spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have
been inspected to ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is
provided in Part II Section A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
More details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II
Section A. The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that
the outfaIIs do not contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part It Section A.
5. , Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial
inaterials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR §'122.26(g), the
facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPI)ES stormwater discharge permit
requirements. Additional information is provided in Part I Section A.
Please submit : ny comments to me no later than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft.
Comments should be sent to the address Iisted at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are
received from the �,ublic or from you, this permit will likely be issued in about two months.
If you have any questioi.s or comments concerning this draft permit, contact me at [phone] or

Permit No. NCS000528
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in 4'
accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section
B, Paragraph 5: - The permittee shall re -certify annually that the stormwater
outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges.
2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate, the follow' ing:
(a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical `and'.econo11 mic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practtces,to-ehininate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater Wherever practical, the permittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material; handling operations, and
,,
manufacturing or fueling operations. , n,areas,where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater managemenfipl n shall document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Contai►irnent�Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk sto,r`age of4li."quid materials; storage in any amount of Section
313 of Title III of the•Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
water priority chemicals;I46d storage in any amount of hazardous; substances, in
order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table
or summary ofr'all,such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary
containment area's shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are
connected directly to stormwater conve'yance.systems,•the connection shall be
controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be
secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates
in the containment area shall be at a minimum -visually observed for color, foam,
outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the
accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to
be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural .and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential,for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater. discharges and data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a

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 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 shall list
all stormwater control systems, storm' water discharge outfall's, all, on -site and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity area's (including material storage areas,
material handling areas, disposal areas, proce`s"s are as,,loading and unloading areas, and
haul roads), all drainage features and structures and'existing structural,BMPs. The
. ,� .
program shall establish schedules ofinspections, maintenance, and housekeeping
activities of stormwater control systenns, a$_wel1 as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present Fa potential fbvstormwater exposure or stormwater pollution.
Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall
be incorporated into the program-Jimely compliance with the established schedules for
inspections, maintenanc'; and housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP.
5. 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
and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations

31. Total Flow
The flow corresponding to the time period over which the entire storm event occurs. Total flow shall be
either; (a) measured continuously, (b) calculated based or the amount of area draining to the outfall, the
amount of built -upon (impervious) area, and the total amount of rainfall, or (c) estimated by the
measurement of flow at 20 minute intervals during the rainfall event.
32. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
A TMDL is a calculation of the maximum amount of a pol lutant that a waterbody can receive and still meet
water quality standards, and an allocation of that amount to the pollutant's sources. A TMDL is a detailed
water -quality assessment that provides the scientific foundation for an implementation plan. The
implementation plan outlines the steps necessary to reduce pollutant loads in a certain body of water to
restore and maintain water quality standards in all seasons. TherClea i Water Act, Section 303, establishes
the water quality standards and TMDL programs. Wr`

Central Office Review Summary: ,
1. Owner's Other Permits:
• NCO088081
• NC0001504117
2. General Observations:
• This is a new permit application for an existing facility.
• Materials stored outside include wooden pallets and storage trailers. FRO may want to see if this site
could qualify for No Exposure.
• There was a spinning lubricant release discovered in February 2007 adjacent to SDO-4. All liquid was
vacuumed out via a vac -truck. In April 2007, soil was excavated and landfilled. Sample was taken to
confirm there was no remaining material that posed a risk.
3. Impairment: The stream that this facility discharges to (Buffalo Creek) is not listed. However, it should be
noted that approximately 3 miles downstream, Buffalo Creek converges with a segment of the Pee -Dee River
that was listed on the 2008 draft 303(d) list for turbidity violations., This segment of the Pee -Dee River was just
removed in 2008 from the list for previous Low DO violations.
4. Threatened and Endangered: No T&E aquatic species. The Red -Cockaded Woodpecker (bird) is an endangered
species listed in the general area.
5. Analytical Monitoring Notes: One storm was sampled at 5 outfalls (SDO-1 through SDO-5). Parameters include
Oil & Grease, TSS, BOD, TKN, P, and COD. Majority of results are well below current benchmarks. TSS at
SDO-2 was over 3x the current benchmark. See table 1 in the attached application package. EPA's 2008
MSGP has monitoring for total Zinc, but Zinc is not used anywhere in the process.
6. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: None submitted.
Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Adding TSS, pH, COD to the analytical monitoring requirements. TSS added based on high value at SDO-2.
COD added based on one value of 79 mg/L, and because they had a release/spill.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
3. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a
benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfali then the facility shall .
follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a
mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the
benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall
two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of
the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall
where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples.
4. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
5. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)

7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi=annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three. years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A. More ti
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part lI Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.
