As we discussed our facility will have difficulty meeting the proposed benchmark value for zinc (0.067 mg/L). Our historical analytical data shows that we have not been able to meet the proposed benchmark value in four (4) years. We plan to itrtplement some best management plans to reduce the zinc, but we don't have much hope that these measures will reduce the zinc to the proposed benchmark levels. The Monroe facility processes titanium -based alloys and nickel -based alloys. We feel that zinc is in this DRAFT permit only because it is a regulated constituent in EPA's Effluent Limit Guidelines (ELG) for titanium processors. However, as I explained, there is no zinc in any of our products, nor is zinc used in any of our processes. Attached are technical data sheets for our most common titanium alloys processed at the facility. This documentation provides proof that zinc is not an element found in our titanium products. We've done some research and found that the most common sources of zinc in industrial stormwater are from galvanized steel (roofing, siding, equipment, fencing, etc.), tire dust and oil. We plan to implement some BMPs to reduce the stormwater contribution of zinc from tire dust and oil, but we have not identified any reasonable control measures for galvanized steel. Because we literally have acres of galvanized metal, we are not confident that these BMPs will reduce our zinc below the proposed permit limit. Again, Allvac requests a re-evaluation of the zinc limit. if this can not be granted, then we will accept a condition of "monitoring only" for zinc, so that we can evaluate the effectiveness of the BMPs mentioned above. The Monroe facility is open to suggestions and requests the NC Division of Water Quality to provide any reasonable recommendations. Please feel free to contact me in the future.

Ed Stegall, Allvac Kyle Dunn, Allvac Tommy Long, Allvac X00, ATI Allvac ATI Titanium 6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo Alloy TECHNICAL DATA SHEET 21 Mar08 GENERAL ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy (UNS R54620) is a near -alpha high strength titanium alloy that shows a good combination of tensile strength, creep strength, and toughness. It shows long term stability at temperatures up to 800o F; (425' C). Silicon up to 0. I % is frequently added to improve the creep resistance of the alloy. ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy is produced by primary melting under vacuum (VAR), electron beam (EB) melting, or plasma arc cold hearth melting (PAM). Primary melting is followed by single or double vacuum arc remelting (VAR). Product forms include forging billet, forged or rolled bar, flat rolled products, extrusions, and wire. ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy is used in gas turbine engines for compressor blades, discs, and impellers. It also has applications in afterburner structures as well as for airframe skin applications. SPECIFICATIONS • AMS 4975 Bars and rings (Heat treated) • AMS 4976 - Forgings (Heat treated) • AMILT-9047G - Bar and billet (Heat treated) HEAT TREATMENT PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Melting Range: 2,890 3,1200 F (1,588 - 1,716' C) Density: 0.164 Ibs/cu. in. ; (4.54 gm/cc) Beta Transus Temperature: 18250 F (± 25o); (995' C (± 15*)) Specific Heat: 0.1 1 Btu/Ib.-°F (460 J/kg.) Stress relief annealing is done from 900 - 1,3000 F (482 - 704' C) followed by air cool or slow cool. For bars and forgings, material is solution treated from 1,650 - 1,7500 F (899 - 954' C) for I hour and air cool.This is followed by stabilization at 1,1000 F (593' C) for 8 hours and air cool. Small increases in tensile strength may be obtained by solution treating and aging, but this is at the expense of creep strength compared to the annealed and stabilized product. HARDNESS Typical hardness in the duplex annealed condition is 32- 36 HRC. FORGEABILITY/ FORMABILITY ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy is difficult to form at room temperature.Therefore,severe forming operations such as bending or stretching should be performed on annealed material up to 12000 F (649' C) without affecting mechanical properties. Initial forging breakdown may be done above the transus temperature for ease of forging; however, reductions of 50 to 75% are re- quired to obtain an equiaxed alpha structure. Beta forging is done to improve creep and fracture toughness. This is done by heavy beta reductions from 35 to 50 percent followed by reductions of 15 to 25%. Careful control of the entire forging process is required. MACHINABILITY ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy can be machined using practices for austenitic stainless steels using slow speeds, heavy feeds, rigid tuuling, and large amounts of non -chlorinated cutting fluid. WELDABILITY ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy is easily welded if proper precautions are taken to prevent oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen contamination. Fusion welding can be done in inert gas filled chambers or using inert gas shielding of the molten weld metal and the adjacent heated zones using a trailing shield. Spot, seam, and flash welding can be performed without resorting to protective atmospheres. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS ATI Ti-6AI-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy can be subject to hydrogen contamination during improper pickling and by oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen pickup during forging, heat treating, brazing, etc.This contamination results in a deterioration in ductility which adversely affects notch sensitivity and forming characteristics.

It has been classified as a "beta -rich" alpha -beta alloy. The alloy may be processed in the beta region, or in the alpha plus beta region. This Ti-17 alloy has higher tensile and creep strengths thanTi-6AI-4V. While its hardenability is similar to other beta alloys, ATI Ti- 17Alloy has a lower density and a higher modulus than most other beta titanium alloys. ATI Ti- 17Alloy is normally produced by plasma cold hearth melting (PAM),and is followed by vacuum arc relrleldllg (VAR). The alloy is normally supplied as forging billet, but it may also be supplied as forged or rolled bar. 51 rcirICATIONS - AMS 4995 —billet HEAT TREATMENT PHYSICAL PROPERTIFS Density: 0.168 Ibs/in'; (4.658 gms/cc) Beta transus: 1,635°F; (890oC) There are different solution heat treatments for alpha -beta and beta processed material. Alpha -beta processed material has a double solution treatment; the first treatment is at 1,500o to 1,575°F (815o to 860°C) for 4 hours followed by rapid air cooling. The higher temperatures are used when higher toughness is desired. The second solution treatment is done at 1,475°F (800°C) followed by a water quench. Fan air-cooling may be used for thinner sections; however, higher and more consistent properties may be obtained by water quenching. Beta processed material receives a single solution anneal at 1,475°F (800°C) for 4 hours. The recommended aging treatment for both alpha -beta and beta processed materials is 1,150' to 1,200oF (620' to 650°C) for 8 hours. HARDNESS Hardness for solution treated and aged material is approximately 39-40 HRH. CORROSION RESISTANCE There are no corrosion data available for this alloy; however, the alloy may be susceptible to stress corrosion attack because of its high chromium content. FORGEABILITY ATI Ti- 17Alloy has excellent forgeability and hot workability. Alpha -beta forging is performed in the 1,500' to 1,575' F range. Total reductions of 50 to 75 percent are recommended to achieve proper equiaxed structures. Beta forging is done in the 1650o to 17990 F range. A final reduction of 30 to 50 percent in a single step is recommended. ATI Ti 17 Alloy maybe forged by hot die or isothermal forging techniques to obtain forging geolnctr ies closer to net shape. FORMABILITY ATI Ti- 17Alloy can be cold worked and cold formed using techniques that are used for other austenitic stainless steels, although somewhat higher loads may be required. WELDABILITY It is recommended that more highly alloyed austenitic alloys be used in welds of ATI Ti-17 Alloy, in order to provide the best corro- sion resistance. Autogenous welds exhibit less corrosion than the base material due to segregation; however, the corrosion resistance can be improved by post -weld annealing. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS All lubricants and coolants, particularly those containing sulfur, should be removed prior to heat treating and welding. Data aretypical and should not be construed as maximum or minimum values for specification or for final design. Data on any particular TI-o 17 piece of material may vary from those shown herein.

It is a two phase a+p titanium alloy, with aluminum as the alpha stabilizer and vanadium as the beta stabilizer. This high -strength alloy can be used at cryogenic temperatures to about 800e F (427e C). ATI Ti-6AI-4V alloy is used in the annealed condition and in the solution treated and aged condition. Some applications include: com- pressor blades, discs, and rings for jet engines; airframe and space capsule components; pressure vessels; rocket engine cases; helicopter rotor hubs; fasteners; critical forgings requiring high strength -to -weight ratios. This alloy is produced by primary melting using vacuum arc (VAR), electron beam (EB), or plasma arc hearth melting (PAM). Remelting is achieved by one or two vacuum arc steps.

Larger sections sizes and/or a quench delay may cause properties to be lower than the optimum values. HARDNESS Typical hardness in the annealed condition is Rockwell C 30-34, and about Rockwell C 35-39 in the solution and aged condition FORMABILITY/ FORMABILITY ATI Ti-6AI-4V alloy is finish -forged from 1,750e F; (954° C) with a finishing temperature of 1,450e F; (788e C). Minimum reductions of 35% are recommended to obtain optimum properties. ATI Ti-0I-4V alloy is difficult to form at room temperature even in the annealed condition. Therefore severe forming operations such as bending or stretching are performed on annealed material A leiripeial.ures up to 1,200" F; (649° C) without affecting mechanical properties. Hot sizing or shaping can be done by creep forming in the 1,000 - 1,200' F; (538 - 649° C) range. MACHINARILITY ATI Ti-6AI-4V alloy can be machined using practices for austenitic stainless steels with slow speeds, heavy feeds, rigid tooling, and large amounts of non -chlorinated cutting fluid. WELDABILITY ATI Ti-6AI-4V alloy is easily welded in the annealed condition, or in the solution and partially aged condition, with aging being complet- ed during the post weld heat treatment. Precautions must be taken to prevent oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen contamination. Fusion welding can be done in inert gas filled chambers, or using inert gas welding of the molten metal and the adjacent heated zones using a trailing shield. Spot, seam, and flash welding can be performed without resorting to protective atmospheres. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS ATI Ti-6AI-4V alloy can be subjected to hydrogen contamination during improper pickling and by oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon pickup during forging, heat treating, brazing, etc. This contamination could result in a deterioration in ductility which would adversely affect notch sensitivity and forming characteristics.

Section B: Analytical Monitoring Requirements states the following: "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)." Table 1. — Analytical Monitoring Requirements provides "SDO" as the Sample Location with a footnote stating to collect samples at each SDO unless representative outfall status has been granted. Based on our proposal and a subsequent site visit by NC DENR, approval was granted to Allvac to consider SDO # 2 as our representative outfall for the facility. Allvac requests clarity to continue to sample only SDO #2 for the duration of the new permit. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or require any additional information.

Upon review of Table 3- Benchmark Values for Analytical Monitoring, compared to previous facility stormwater monitoring results, we feel we will have significant problems meeting the benchmark value for BOD, COD, TSS, Nickel, and Zinc on a consistent basis. Below is a snapshot of our recent monitoring data for these characteristics: Characteristic (mg/L) 2008 2008 2007 2007 2006 2005 2004 BOD 13.1 18.4 120.6 16.8 66 29 70 COD 34 53 555 258 120 85 400 TSS 140 18 33.7 62.7 120 71 540 Nickel 0.117 0.182 1.19 1.21 0.41 0.11 4 Zinc 1 0.339 1 0.368 10.51 1 0.263 1 0.4 1 0.21 1 1.2 *Benchmark exceedances indicated in bold. We plan to make improvements that should reduce our TSS and Nickel results. We should also be able to improve our BOD and COD results, but frankly we have not been able to identify the source of spikes in our historical data. The benchmark value for Zinc is of particular concern. Allvac does not use Zinc in our processes, and it is not contained in our products. IIowever, we do have acres of galvanized metal roofing and siding, and we believe that to be the source of our Zinc results. Therefore, we are not aware of any ieasonable measures that we can take to reduce our Zinc results. Allvac requests a re-evaluation of the benchmark values for BOD, COD, TSS, Nickel, and Zinc for the ATI Allvac — Monroe 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 changes from.this facility's current permit: Analytical monitoring changes: 1. Analytical monitoring parameters, BOD, COD, TSS, Cadmium, Lead, Nickel and Zinc, have been maintained in the permit. Oil & Grease and ChromiurA have been added to the permit based on the parameters being potential pollutants at the site. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.. 3. 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. 4. 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 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. 5. 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. 6. You are responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5.

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 Lo u,uliibute to cu►►ta►nivation of slormwater 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 name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters, and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. The general location map (or alternatively 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 watershed for which a TMDL has been established, and what the parameter(s) of concern are. North Carolina's 303(d) List can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/General_303d.htm#Downloads North Carolina TMDL documents can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/TMDL list.htm#Final TMDLs. (b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. A narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the slortnwater discharge from each oulfall. (c) A site map drawn to scale (including a distance legend) showing: the site property boundary, the stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), site topography, all drainage features and structures, drainage areas for each outfall, direction of flow in each drainage area, industrial activities occurring in each drainage area, buildings, existing BMPs, and impervious surfaces. The site map must indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the three (3) previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. Part II Page 3 of 10 Pennit No. NCS000330 (e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in 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 following: (a) feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic teasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate 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. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulls storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating storinwater runoff. A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance 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 written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually. Part II Page 4 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 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 stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP. Preventative Maintenance and (mod Housokeoping Program A,provontativo maintenance and good housekeeping program shall be developed. The program shall list all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activityareas,,(including material storage areas, material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas,: loading and unloading areas, 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.

Part II Page 6 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 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.

Tier Two If: During the term of this permit, the first valid 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 permittee shall: 1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters 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 the benchmark range, for all parameters at that outfall. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow." 4. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Part II Page 9 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 During the term of this permit, if the valid sampling results required for the permit monitoring periods exceed the benchmark value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on more than four occasions, the permittee shall notify the DWQ Regional Office Supervisor in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth analytical results. DWQ may, but is not limited to: • require that the permittee increase or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; • require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures; or • require that the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for the No Exposure Exclusion. This site discharges to impaired waters experiencing problems with biological integrity. If a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is approved for'this segment of Richardson Creek, the permittee may be required to monitor for the pollutant(s) of concern in the future and submit results to the Division of Water Quality. The Division will consider the monitoring results in determining whether additional BMPs are needed to control the pollutant(s) of concern to the maximum extent practicable. If additional BMPs are needed to achieve the required level of control, the permittee will be required to (1) develop a strategy for implementing appropriate BMPs, and (2) submit a timetable for incorporation of those BMPs into the permitted Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Part II Page 10 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified in Table 4, during the analytical monitoring event. [If analytical monitoring is not required, the permittee still must conduct semi- annual qualitative monitoring.] Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. 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. `fable 4.

The certification statement will be signed in 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 following: (a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate 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. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance 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 written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually. Part II Page 4 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 effectiveness of the BMPs listed in the BMP Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 5) to the Director that the changes have been made. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Idousekeeping Program at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year (January to June), and once during the second half (July to December), with at least Fro days separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually). These facility inspections; are different from, and in addition to, the stormwatcr discharge chatactetistic monitoring required in Part II B and C of this permit. Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Plan. Implementation of the Plan shall include documentation of all monitoring, measurements, inspections, maintenance activities, and training provided to employees,including the log of the sampling data and of actions taken to implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities.

The permittee shall report the analytical results from the first sample with valid results within the monitoring period. The permittee shall compare monitoring results to the benchmark values in Table 3. The benchmark values in Table 3 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). Exceedences 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 and Tier Two. Part II Page 8 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 Tier One If: The first valid sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall; Then: The permittee shall: l . Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling results. 2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedence. 3. Identify potential, and select the specific: source controls, operational controls, or physical improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, or to bring concentrations to within the benchmark range. ,1 litil)loincut the+ selected actions within two months of (Ile inspection. 5 Record each instance of a Tier One response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. 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. Tier Two If. During the term of this permit, the first valid 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 permittee shall: 1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters 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 the benchmark range, for all parameters at that outfall. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow." 4. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Part II Page 10 of 10 Permit No. NCS000330 SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified in Table 4, during the analytical monitoring event. [If analytical monitoring is not required, the permittee still must conduct semi- annual qualitative monitoring.] Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. 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. Table 4.

Klimek, P.E., Director February 14, 2003 Mr. Kyle Dunn Teledyne Allvac P O Box 5030 Monroe, North Carolina 28110 D E N Imr, I NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES Subject: Permit No. NCS000330 Molicuie Platil Union County Dear Mr. Dunn: In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater permit NCS000330, the Division of Water Quality (Division) is forwarding herewith the subject state - NPDES permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection agency dated December 6, 1983. Please note that the Division has revised the analytical monitoring strategy for individual stormwater permits. Based on a review of the permit monitoring data received to date, the analytical monitoring measurement frequencies have been changed and cut-off concentrations have been removed. These changes will be implemented for all second term individual stormwater permits with analytical monitoring requirements. For those permits with analytical monitoring requirements, Part II - Monitoring, Controls, and Limitations for Permitted Discharges has been modified to reflect the change in monitoring strategy. The qualitative monitoring strategy remains the same as the first term of the permit. Please note that the semi-annual qualitative monitoring is a requirement of the permit. Failure to complete the monitoring as required is a violation of the permit and any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of the Clean Water Act.

This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following items: 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 (USES 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 name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters; and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. (b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. (c) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations, existing BMPs and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. (e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3. 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 following: Part II Page 1 of 6 Permit No. NCS000330 (a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate 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. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals,, or storage of hazardous substances to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment. devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be secured 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 narrative description shall be provided of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of stormwater discharges. 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 team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified. 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, a SPCC plan 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 program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Part II Page 2 of 6 Permit No. NCS000330 5. Employee Training.

Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified. 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. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention flan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes have been made. 8. Facility Inspection Program. Facilities are required to inspect all stormwater systems on at least a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September -November) and once in the spring (April - June). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s) making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring as required in Part II of this permit shall be performed in addition to facility inspections. 9. Implementation. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements, inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the log of the sampling data and of activities taken to itnplernent BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities.

If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass. Individual Stormwater Page Al2 (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice within 24 hours of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part II, E. 5. of this permit. (24- hour notice). d. Prohibition of Bypass Bypass is prohibited and the Director may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass, unless: (1) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (2) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary control facilities, retention of stormwater or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime or dry weather. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup controls should have been iuslalled in die exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (3) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. The Director may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse effects, if the Director determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. of this section. 4. Upsets a. Definition "Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment or control facilities, inadequate treatment or control facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. b . Effect of an Upset. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review. c. Conditions Necessary for a Demonstration of Upset A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that: (1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset; Individual Stormwater Page A13 (2) The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; and (3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part H, E. 5. (b) (B) of this permit. (4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part 11, A. 2. of this permit. d.

To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find an individual permit renewal application form, supplemental information request, and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan certification. Filing the application form along with the requested supplimental information will constitute your application for renewal of your peiinit. The application foiin must be completed and returned along with all requested infoiination by July 21, 2000 in order to constitute a timely renewal filing. Recent legislation modified the fee structure for DWQ permits. Renewal fees have been eliminated and annual fees have been changed.

Failure to request renewal by July 21, 2000 may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
