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 U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
The final permit includes one change from the draft permit sent to you on March 14, 2018. Our
Fayetteville Regional Office staff conducted an inspection at your facility on April 10, 2018. As a
result of this inspection regional staff recommended the addition of oil and grease monitoring for
your regular analytical monitoring efforts. This recommendation is due to the large capacity for #2
fuel oil storage at your facility and the potential for spills. Non -polar Oil and Grease has been added
to the routine monitoring for your facility.
Please note that analytical and qualitative monitoring is required in this 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. Reference Part 111, Section A, Item 2 "Duty to Comply", Item 9
"Penalties for Tampering" and Item 10 "Penalties for Falsification of Reports" of your permit for
further information,
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this modification are
unacceptable to you, then you have the right to file a petition for a contested case with the Office of
Administrative Hearings within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This petition must
conform to the requirements of Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes. Petitions must
be filed in a timely manner with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post Office Drawer 11666,

Permit No. KA00369
PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The SPPP shall be maintained on site unless exempted from this requirement by
the Division. The SPPP is public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, paragraph 3 of this permit. The SPPP shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
1. Site Overview. The Site Overview shall provide a description of the physical facility
and the potential pollutant sources that may be expected to contribute to
contamination of stormwater discharges. The Site Overview 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 waters to which the stormwater outfalls
discharge, 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 points of stormwater discharge associated with industrial
activity. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify
whether any receiving waters are impaired (on the state's 303 (d) list of impaired
waters) or if the site is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been
established, and what the parameters of concern are.
(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 that
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall.
(c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: 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 and
finished grade; all drainage features and structures; drainage area boundaries and
total contributing area for each outfall; direction of flow in each drainage area;
industrial activities occurring in each drainage area; buildings; stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs); and impervious surfaces. The site map must
indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious, and the site map
must include a graphic scale indication and north arrow.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants during the previous three (3) years
and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
Part li Page 1 of 11

Permit No. NCS000369
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The permittee shall re -certify annually 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 Ill, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Strategy. The Stormwater Management Strategy shall
contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which
control or minimize the stormwater exposure of significant materials, including
structural and nonstructural measures. The Stormwater Management Strategy, 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 rainfall and run-on flows. 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, this review shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater
run-on 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 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). 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 may be used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit. The Division may allow exceptions to secondary
containment requirements for mobile refuelers, as with the exemption provided by
amendments to federal SPCC regulations, as long as appropriate spill containment
and/or diversionary structures or equipment is used to prevent discharge to surface
waters. Exceptions do not apply to refuelers or other mobile tankage used primarily
as bulk liquid material storage in a fixed location in place of stationary containers.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
Part iI Page 2 of 11

Permit No. NCS000369
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on 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.
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 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 and implemented.
The program shall address all stormwater control systems (if applicable), stormwater
discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial
activity areas (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 where not already addressed under
another element of the SPPP. Inspection of material handling areas and regular
cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely
compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and
housekeeping shall be recorded and maintained in the SPPP.
5. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur
as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping 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 60 days
separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually).
These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater
discharge characteristic monitoring at the outfalls required in Part 11 B, C, and D of this
permit.
6. 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. The facility
Part it Page 3 of l l

Permit No. NCS000369
personnel responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their
annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
7. Responsible Party. The SPPP shall identify a specific position or positions responsible
for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision of the SPPP.
Responsibilities for all components of the SPPP shall be documented and position
assignments provided.
B. SPPP Amendment and Annual Update. The permittee shall amend the SPPP
whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, site drainage,
maintenance, or configuration of the physical features which may have a significant
effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of
the SPPP shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update
shall include:
(a) an updated list of signif cant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
(3) years, or the notation that no spills have occurred (element of the Site
Overview);
(b) a written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for
the presence of non-stormwater discharges (element of the Site Overview);
(c) a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the on -site stormwater
BMPs (BMP Summary element of the Stormwater Management Strategy).
(d) a review and comparison ofsample analytical data to benchmark values (if
applicable) over the past year, including a discussion about Tiered Response
status. The permittee shall use the Division's Annual Summary Data
Monitoring Report (DMR) form, available from the Stormwater Permitting
Program's website (See: httns:Iidea.nc.gavlabout/divisions/energy-mineral-iand-
resou rces/nodes-stormwater-individual).
The Director may notify the permittee when the SPPP 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 SPPP to meet minimum
requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with
Part I11, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes
have been made.
9. SPPP Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan and all appropriate BMPs consistent with the provisions of this permit,
in order to control contaminants entering surface waters via stormwater.
Implementation of the SPPP 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.
Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five (5) years and made
available to the Director or the Director's authorized representative immediately upon
request.
Part I I Page 4 of 11

Permit No. NCS000369
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 each
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.

Footnotes:
1 Measurement Frequency: Twice per year (unless other provisions of this permit prompt monthly
sampling) during a measureable storm event, until either another permit is issued for this facility or until
this permit is revoked or rescinded. 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 begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed. Drawing down the level of water in the onsite pond via
manual release in preparation for a large storm event such as a hurricane or in preparation for
maintenance is allowed in order to preserve pond integrity. In this case analytical sampling must be done
within the first 30 minutes of manual discharge.
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.
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 II Page 5 of 11

Permit No. NCS000369
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken within the monitoring period (see Part Ill, 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.

Footnotes:
1 Maintain semi-annual monitoring until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. The permittee must submit an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline (180 days before expiration) to be considered for renewed coverage
under the permit. The permittee must continue analytical monitoring throughout the permit
renewal process, even if a renewal permit is not issued until after expiration of this permit
2 if no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report
indicating "No Flow" or "No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period.
3 Monitoring periods remain consistent through the permit term and through the renewal process.
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.
;rr
TierOne
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:
1. 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 exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select the 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.
5. 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 (omitting periods with no discharge) are
above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge
ourraii;
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.
S. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the SPPP.
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations throughout the permit renewal process.
Tier Three
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 four occasions, the permittee shall notify the
DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 34 days of receipt of the fourth analytical results;
Then: The Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, 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 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
• 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
during required analytical monitoring events (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 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.

permit prompt monthly monitoring. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods. The permittee must
continue qualitative monitoring throughout the permit renewal process until a new permit is issued.
2 Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each stormwater discharge outfall
(SDO) regardless of representative outfall status.
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.
Part II Page 8 of 11

Permit No. NCSb00369i
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.
Qualitative Monitoring Response,
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
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.
SECTION D: SPECIAL CONDITIONS

Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due
to the facility being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the
households have broadband access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES
electronic reporting requirements may be granted and discharge monitoring data may
be submitted on paper DMR forms or alternative forms approved by the Director.
Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above. See "How to
Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due no later than 30 days from
the date the facility receives the sampling results from the laboratory.
2. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reportine
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To
obtain an electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic
reporting waiver request to the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting
waivers must be submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty
(60) days prior to the date the facility would be required under this permit to begin
submitting monitoring data and reports. The duration of a temporary waiver shall not
exceed 5 years and shall thereupon expire. At such time, monitoring data and reports
shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re -applies for and
is granted a new temporary electronic reporting waiver by the Division. Approved
electronic reporting waivers are not transferrable. Only permittees with an approved
reporting waiver request may submit monitoring data and reports on paper to the
Division for the period that the approved reporting waiver request is effective.

o TSS and pH are baseline parameters that should be maintained in the permit.
o Based on their site visit the FRO has recommended that oil and grease monitoring be added to the permit.
This is a result of the potential storage capacity for #2 fuel and past spills.
o Parameters in permit —TSS, Non -Polar Oil and Grease and pH
o Tier structure adjusted to have the three levels as in current permits.
o Parameter codes added to permit.
Discussions with facility contact (William "Ace" May) indicated that there have been no major changes at the facility.
Mr. May indicated all drainage to the onsite pond and that the pond only discharges with large storm event. I
reviewed monitoring reports and looked at NOAA precipitation data. This indicates that the pond does not hold the
25 yr storm and does discharge in smaller events. Mr. May agreed. Maintain the footnote language from the
previous permit associated with manual discharge from the pond. Resturctured this language a little from the
previous permit. Mr. May noted that City of Fayetteville MS4 staff regularly inspect the facility as part of their
permit efforts,
Facility drains to the Locks Creek 18-24 in the Cape Fear River Basin, a class C stream. 2014 Assessment Report
shows no impairment of concern for this facility in this area.
NC National Heritage review— Report shows no record of species of concern.
FRO — Draft permit and related information sent to the region for comment by email on 3/14/2018. Had also
previously talked with Mike Lawyer about the facility and about contacts. FRO conducted site visit on 4/10/2018
and submitted comments on 4/11/18. Okay with changes and the facility was in compliance. Region recommends
adding oil and grease monitoring due to storage on site and past spills. See inspection report in file.

RE: Butler/Warner Generation Plant; NCS000369
Dear Bradley Bennett:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information
about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
A query of the NCNHP database, based on the project area mapped with your request, indicates that there are
no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas
within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural
heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have
been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists.
In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may
update our records.
The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been
documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that
these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is
included for reference, Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius of the
project area, if any, are also included in this report.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project
review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions.
Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the
NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP
data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature
Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF) easement,
or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please

Subject: Draft NPDES Stormwater Permit
Permit No. NCS000369
Butler/Warner Generation Plant
Cumberland County
Dear Mr. May
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. Monitoring requirements in the draft permit have changed slightly. Monitoring is
required for TSS and pH. After review of monitoring data from the past 10 years the
results for Iron (Fe) have remained well below the previously established benchmark level.
The draft permit proposes to remove this parameter. Comments from our regional staff
or other information may result in maintaining iron if it is apparent that your activities in
some way have the potential to release this pollutant. Stormwater benchmarks remain in
the permit as before. Keep in mind that 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
State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Energy, Mineral and Land Resources

exceedances. The draft permit has modified the tiered response process for benchmark
exceedances consistent with other permits In our program. Please become familiar with
the tiered process as proper response under the tiers may be enforceable items under
your permit. Response to the tiered process may include review of onsite conditions,
installation of BMPs or requirements for more frequent monitoring.
4. Vehicle maintenance (Tables 4 & 5) monitoring parameters have been revised. Non -Polar
Oil & Grease [EPA Method 1664 (SGT-HEM)] replaces Oil & Grease/TPH. The benchmark
for Non -polar Oil & Grease using this method 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 the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the permit
cycle, the requirements shall apply. Also, pH monitoring is no longer required for
discharges only associated with vehicle maintenance activities.
5. Language has been added under Part 11 Section D to address potential responses to
qualitative monitoring issues.
6. A new section on Special Conditions has been added in Part II, Section E to comply with
federal regulations requiring electronic submittal of discharge monitoring reports. Our
electronic submittal process is not available for use at this time, but we will continue to
provide feedback on when this process will be available.
7. Civil and administrative penalty amounts have been updated to reflect current federal
law in Part III, Section A, 2(b) and (g).
Please review the draft permit and submit any comments to me no later than 30 days following
your receipt of the draft. Comments may be emailed to me at brad ley.ben [e-mail] or
mailed to my attention at NC DEMLR, Stormwater Permitting Program,1612 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC 27699-1612. With this notification the Division will solicit comment on this draft by
publishing a notice.in a local newspaper. Following the 30 day public comment period, the
Division will review comments and take appropriate action prior to issuance of the final permit.
If you have any questions, please email me or call me at [phone].

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
PART I INTRODUCTION
SECTION A: INDIVIDUAL PERMIT COVERAGE
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration,
the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activity.
Such discharges shall be controlled, limited and monitored as specified in this 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. Any owner or operator wishing to obtain a No
Exposure Exclusion must submit a No Exposure Certification Notice of Intent (N01) form to
the Division; must receive approval by the Division; must maintain no exposure conditions
unless authorized to discharge under a valid NPDES stormwater permit; and must recertify
the No Exposure Exclusion annually.
SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES
Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge
stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system that
has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this permit. All stormwater discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this
permit.
Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an
allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization, or
approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this permit shall not cause or contribute
to violations of Water Quality Standards.
This permit does not relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any
other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or
decree.

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The SPPP shall be maintained on site unless exempted from this requirement by
the Division. The SPPP is public information in accordance with Part ill, Standard
Conditions, Section E, paragraph 3 of this permit. The SPPP shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
1. Site Overview. The Site Overview shall provide a description of the physical facility
and the potential pollutant sources that may be expected to contribute to
contamination of stormwater discharges. The Site Overview 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 waters to which the stormwater outfalls
discharge, 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 points of stormwater discharge associated with industrial
activity. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify
whether any receiving waters are impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired
waters) or if the site is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been
established, and what the parameters of concern are.
(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 that
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall.
(c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: 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 and
finished grade; all drainage features and structures; drainage area boundaries and
total contributing area for each outfall; direction of flow in each drainage area;
industrial activities occurring in each drainage area; buildings; stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs); and impervious surfaces. The site map must
indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious, and the site map
must include a graphic scale indication and north arrow.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants during the previous three (3) years
and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
Part 11 Page 1 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The permittee shall re -certify annually 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 111, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Strategy. The Stormwater Management Strategy shall
contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which
control or minimize the stormwater exposure of significant materials, including
structural and nonstructural measures. The Stormwater Management Strategy, 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 rainfall and run-on flows. 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, this review shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater
run-on 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_sub- tances, 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 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). 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 may be used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit. The Division may allow exceptions to secondary
containment requirements for mobile refuelers, as with the exemption provided by
amendments to federal SPCC regulations, as long as appropriate spill containment
and/or diversionary structures or equipment is used to prevent discharge to surface
waters. Exceptions do not apply to refuelers or other mobile tankage used primarily
as bulk liquid material storage in a fixed location in place of stationary containers.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
Part 11 Page 2 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on 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.
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 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 and implemented.
The program shall address all stormwater control systems (if applicable), stormwater
discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial
activity areas (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 where not already addressed under
another element of the SPPP. Inspection of material handling areas and regular
cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely
compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and
housekeeping shall be recorded and maintained in the SPPP.
5. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur
as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping 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 60 days
separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually).
These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater
discharge characteristic monitoring at the outfalls required in Part 11 B, C, and D of this
permit.
6. 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. The facility
Part 11 Page 3 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
personnel responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their
annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
7. Responsible Party. The SPPP shall identify a specific position or positions responsible
for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision of the SPPP.
Responsibilities for all components of the SPPP shall be documented and position
assignments provided.
B. SPPP Amendment and Annual Update. The permittee shall amend the SPPP
whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, site drainage,
maintenance, or configuration of the physical features which may have a significant
effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of
the SPPP shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update
shall include:
(a) an updated list ofsignificant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
(3) years, or the notation that no spills have occurred (element of the Site
Overview);
(b) a written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for
the presence of non-stormwater discharges (element of the Site Overview);
(c) a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the on -site stormwater
BMPs (BMP Summary element of the Stormwater Management Strategy).
(d) a review and comparison of sample analytical data to benchmark values (if
applicable) over the past year, including a discussion about Tiered Response
status. The permittee shall use the Division's Annual Summary Data
Monitoring Report (DMR) form, available from the Stormwater Permitting
Program's website (See'Monitoring Forms' here:
http://deq.ne.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-land-i-e_sour_ces/energy
mineral-land-permits/stormwater-permits/�pdes-iBdustria�-sw).
The Director may notify the permittee when the SPPP 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 SPPP to meet minimum
requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with

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 each
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.

1 Measurement Frequency: Twice per year (unless other provisions of this permit prompt monthly
sampling) during a measureable storm event, until either another permit is issued for this facility or until
this permit is revoked or rescinded. 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 begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed. Drawing down the level of water in the onsite pond via
manual release in preparation for a large storm event such as a hurricane or in preparation for
maintenance is allowed in order to preserve pond integrity. In this case analytical sampling must be done
within the first 30 minutes of manual discharge.
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
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken within the monitoring period (see Part 111, Section E). However, for purposes
Part 11 Page 5 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
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.

1 Maintain semi-annual monitoring until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. The permittee must submit an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline (180 days before expiration) to be considered for renewed coverage
under the permit. The permittee must continue analytical monitoring throughout the permit
renewal process, even if a renewal permit is not issued until after expiration of this permit.
2 If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report
indicating "No Flow" or "No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period.
3 Monitoring periods remain consistent through the permit term and through the renewal process.

of the„lislEed,per�,ods,
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.
Part 11 Page 6 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAI-T
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:
1. 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 exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select the 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.
i. Tier Two .
if: The first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods (omitting periods with no
discharge) 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.
S. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the SPPP.
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations throughout the permit renewal process.
Tier Three
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 four occasions, the
permittee shall notify the DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth
analytical results;
Then: The Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, 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 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
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion;
9 require the pemittee to continue Tier Three obligations through the permit renewal process.

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.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfali (SDO) that discharges
stormwater runoff from area(s) where vehicle maintenance activities occur, unless representative outfall
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 gauge 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 II
Section B.
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table 5. The benchmark
values in Table 5 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). 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 response to a
tired program. See description of tiers and required response in Part 11 Section B.

SECTION D: 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
during required analytical monitoring events (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 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.

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
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.

• no objections to removal of Iron from their analytical monitoring requirements
• based on the amount/capacity of #2 fuel oil storage at the facility (five million gallons) and a few historical oil
spills, the addition of Non -Polar Oil & Grease to their analytical monitoring requirements might be warranted;
they do however have a robust spill prevention and response plan and visually check their ASTs and associated
piping as well as their large (5-acre) stormwater pond on a daily basis
• secondary containment for the fuel oil tanks is in the form of earthen/vegetated dikes without a liner
• as referenced in my inspection report, there have been no exceedances of benchmark values from 2013 to 2017
and the facility is very well operated and maintained
Please let me know if you need more detail on the comments above or any further information about the facility.

Subject: Permit Renewal Draft for Review and Site Inspection

Tim and Mike
Hey Guys! If you haven't heard yet (Mike we've talked so I know you've heard), I'm back working part time on individual
stormwater permit renewals. My schedule is generally Tuesday —Thursday but I modify it some based on how the
weather looks and what I'd rather be doing!
I'm asking for your comments on the attached draft individual NPDES Stormwater permit renewal for Butler/Warner
Generation Plant (Fayetteville PWC) — NCS000369.
Attached are the following documents for your review:
1. Draft permit NCS000369
2. Cover letter to permittee —outlines the major changes from the previous permit
3. NCS000369 Renewal application from permittee
4. Some supplemental monitoring data for the last few years since the application.
The last inspection of their facility that we did looks to have been in 2008. Fayetteville is doing regular inspections under
their MS4 program and I think Mike said they usually copy you on their reports. We are proposing to modify their
monitoring just slightly because the data over the last 10 years is coming in under the benchmarks (see cover letter for
info on the specific changes). We are maintaining some base parameters in the draft permit. I would appreciate your
feedback on this to see if you feel monitoring should be different in any way. I've also adjusted the draft a little with
regards to the footnote that addresses their manual release from their onsite detention pond.
I'm sending the draft permit to the permittee today or tomorrow by mail and the permit is going out to public notice the
first of next week. I would appreciate it if you could schedule a site visit and get me any comments you may have within
the next 30 days. Let me know if that is a problem.

Inspection Summary:
Inspection conducted to determine compliance with current/expired permit and as part of the permit renewal process. Met
with William "Ace" May, Power Plant Manager, and Terry Hayner, Operations Supervisor. Discussed aspects of the draft
permit including the significant changes regarding measurable storm events definition, removal of the Iron parameter from the
monitoring requirements, modified tiered response process for benchmark exceedancss, etc. Also discussed the annual
review and update requirements pertaining to the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan; listing of significant spills or notation
that none have occurred, re -certification that the stormwater outfall has been evaluated for the presence of any
non-stormwater discharges, effectiveness of BMPs, and comparison of analytical monitoring data to benchmark values.
Reviewed facility's current Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan as well as analytical and qualitative (visual) monitoring
records from 2013 through 2017. Monitoring records indicate no exceadences of benchmark values with a few records
indicating 'No Flow'. Facility primarily uses natural gas for power generation with #2 fuel oil as a backup source. Facility has
seven ASTs that can store up to five million gallons of fuel oil. An earthen dike is provided around each AST for secondary
containment. Drains at the fuel oil off-loading area are tied to an all/water separator. Facility has a robust spill prevention and
response plan and conducts mock exercises on a routine basis. Secondary containment is also provided around the
facility's acid and caustic tanks. Releases of accumulated stormwater from this containment structure flow into the facility's
sanitary sewer system. Observations were made of the facility's 5-acre stormwater retention pond, stormwater discharge
outfall and secondary containment structures. Facility appears to be very well operated and maintained.

Let me know if you need anything else.
• Have there been any substantial changes at the facility , either construction changes or process changes, that
could impact Stormwater runoff? No
• Could you provide an updated summary of your monitoring results since the renewal application (2013 — 2017).
Attach ed.spreads'heet.
Is the site plan from 2013 still accurate or is there a new one. ,Yes it kis accurate
• Can you provide us with the latitude / longitude location of all outfalls? We will need this as we move toward
federally required electronic reporting of monitoring data. (1 Outfall) 35°05'46.6" N 78°49'48.05"W

Thanks for responding Mr. May. Would there be a time next week when we can talk about the permit renewal? Since it
has been a while since your renewal application (2013) I'd like to get feedback from you on some things. For example:
• Have there been any substantial changes at the facility, either construction changes or process changes, that
could impact stormwater runoff?
• Could you provide an updated summary of your monitoring results since the renewal application (2013 - 2017).
+ Is the site plan from 2013 still accurate or is there a new one.
• Can you provide us with the latitude / longitude location of all outfalls? We will need this as we move toward
federally required electronic reporting of monitoring data.
• I'd also like to talk a little about the pond you have onsite. I have read through some things in the file, but I
think it would help to discuss this.
For next week I will most likely be available Monday -Wednesday if any of those days work for you.
Thanks

Best Management Practices
Bulk Fuel Tank Storage and Secondary Containment
All secondary containments are inspected and logged before releasing rainwater; also the
closure of the valves used for the release is logged. Debris are cleaned from secondary
containment areas where applicable.
Fuel Unloading Skid
The fuel unloading skid is equipped with secondary containment. The storm water drains for this
structure have been equipped with valves in the drain lines to prevent unauthorized discharges
of rainwater. These valves are opened only to drain excess rain water. This containment area is
treated as all other containment areas and is inspected before release and is logged as well,
including the closure of the valves.
Fuel Oil Tank Inventory
Fuel tank readings are taken and recorded on a daily basis. These levels are entered into a
database for tracking and trending purposes in order to prevent a potential leak from going
undetected.
Miscellaneous Tanks, Drums, Barrels and Stored Supplies
Miscellaneous tank, drums and barrels are stored in containment areas. Supplies are stored
near this area and potential areas where leaks might occur and near the point where the catch
basins empty into the storm water pond. A vinyl boom is installed across this narrow finger of
entrance point. Another boom is stored within two hundred feet of this location for quick
deployment if necessary. The boom that is permanently deployed is inspected and cleaned
once a year.
Log Rounds
Operators perform 8 log rounds a day inspecting plant equipment and looking for potential
problems with equipment, leak detection, and general housekeeping issues.

Significant Changes
No Changes
There have been no significant changes in the industrial activities at this permitted site.

NC Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
Review of Permit Renewal — NC5000369
Fayetteville Public Works Commission — Butler/Warner Generation Plant
SIC 4911— Electric Generation — Steam Electric — natural gas with t#2 fuel back up.
Monitoring —The facility has been monitoring for TSS, Total Recoverable Iron and pH. Previous permit did have tier
system (2 tiers).
o Data reviewed from 2008 through 2017, Results for iron were consistently below benchmark as were TSS
and pH. pH did have one value outside the upper range (9.41).
o Iron — Due to it's ubiquitous nature iron is being removed from most of our monitoring and is the water
quality standard is proposed for removal as well.
o TSS and pH are baseline parameters that should be maintained in the permit.
o Based on their site visit the FRO has recommended that oil and grease monitoring be added to the permit.
This is a result of the potential storage capacity for #i2 fuel and past spills.
o Parameters in permit —TSS, Non -Polar Oil and Grease and pH
o Tier structure adjusted to have the three levels as in current permits.
o Parameter codes added to permit.
Discussions with facility contact (William "Ace" May) indicated that there have been no major changes at the facility.
Mr. May indicated all drainage to the onsite pond and that the pond only discharges with large storm event. I
reviewed monitoring reports and looked at NOAA precipitation data. This indicates that the pond does not hold the
25 yr storm and does discharge in smaller events. Mr. May agreed. Maintain the footnote language from the
previous permit associated with manual discharge from the pond. Resturctured this language a little from the
previous permit. Mr. May noted that City of Fayetteville MS4 staff regularly inspect the facility as part of their
permit efforts.
Facility drains to the Locks Creek 18-24 in the Cape Fear River Basin, a class C stream. 2014 Assessment Report
shows no impairment of concern for this facility in this area.
NC National Heritage review — Report shows no record of species of concern.
FRO — Draft permit and related information sent to the region for comment by email on 3/14/2018. Had also
previously talked with Mike Lawyer about the facility and about contacts. FRO conducted site visit on 4/10/2018
and submitted comments on 4/11/18. Okay with changes and the facility was in compliance. Region recommends
adding oil and grease monitoring due to storage on site and past spills. See inspection report in file.

Bradley,
Conducted inspection at the Butler/Warner Generation Plant yesterday. A copy of my inspection report is attached for
your review and files. Facility is in compliance with the current/expired permit. Please see comments regarding draft
permit renewal below.
• no objections to removal of Iron from their analytical monitoring requirements
• based on the amount/capacity of #2 fuel oil storage at the facility (five million gallons) and a few historical oil
spills, the addition of Non -Polar Oil & Grease to their analytical monitoring requirements might be warranted;
they do however have a robust spill prevention and response plan and visually check their ASTs and associated
piping as well as their large (5-acre) stormwater pond on a daily basis
• secondary containment for the fuel oil tanks is in the form of earthen/vegetated dikes without a liner
• as referenced in my inspection report, there have been no exceedances of benchmark values from 2013 to 2017
and the facility is very well operated and maintained
Please let me know if you need more detail on the comments above or any further information about the facility.

Subject: Permit Renewal Draft for Review and Site Inspection

Tim and Mike
Hey Guys! If you haven't heard yet (Mike we've talked so I know you've heard), I'm back working part time on individual
stormwater permit renewals. My schedule is generally Tuesday — Thursday but I modify it some based on how the
weather looks and what I'd rather be doing!
I'm asking for your comments on the attached draft individual NPDES Stormwater permit renewal for Butler/Warner
Generation Plant (Fayetteville PWC) — NCS000369.
Attached are the following documents for your review:
1. Draft permit NCS000369
2. Cover letter to permittee — outlines the major changes from the previous permit
3. NCS000369 Renewal application from permittee
4. Some supplemental monitoring data for the last few years since the application.
The last inspection of their facility that we did looks to have been in 2008. Fayetteville is doing regular inspections under
their MS4'program and I think Mike said they usually copy you on their reports. We are proposing to modify their
monitoring just slightly because the data over the last 10 years is coming in under the benchmarks (see cover letter for
info on the specific changes). We are maintaining some base parameters in the draft permit. I would appreciate your
feedback on this to see if you feel monitoring should be different in any way. I've also adjusted the draft a little with
regards to the footnote that addresses their manual release from their onsite detention pond.
I'm sending the draft permit to the permittee today or tomorrow by mail and the permit is going out to public notice the
first of next week. I would appreciate it if you could schedule a site visit and get me any comments you may have within
the next 30 days. Let me know if that is a problem.

Inspection Summary:
Inspection conducted to determine compliance with current/expired permit and as part of the permit renewal process. Met
with William "Ace" May, Power Plant Manager, and Terry Hayner, Operations Supervisor. Discussed aspects of the draft
permit including the significant changes regarding measurable storm events definition, removal of the Iron parameter from the
monitoring requirements, modified tiered response process for benchmark exceedances, etc. Also discussed the annual
review and update requirements pertaining to the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan; listing of significant spills or notation
that none have occurred, re -certification that the stormwater outfall has been evaluated for the presence of any
non-stormwater discharges, effectiveness of BMPs, and comparison of analytical monitoring data to benchmark values.
Reviewed facility's current Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan as well as analytical and qualitative (visual) monitoring
records from 2013 through 2017. Monitoring records indicate no exceedances of benchmark values with a few records
indicating 'No Flow'. Facility primarily uses natural gas for power generation with #2 fuel oil as a backup source. Facility has
seven ASTs that can stare up to five million gallons of fuel oil. An earthen dike is provided around each AST for secondary
containment. Drains at the fuel oil off-loading area are tied to an oil/water separator. Facility has a robust spill prevention and
response plan and conducts mock exercises on a routine basis. Secondary containment is also provided around the
facility's acid and caustic tanks. Reieases of accumulated stormwater from this containment structure flow into the facility's
sanitary sewer system. Observations were made of the facility's 5-acre stormwater retention pond, stormwater discharge
outfall and secondary containment structures. Facility appears to be very well operated and maintained..

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
PART I INTRODUCTION
SECTION A: INDIVIDUAL PERMIT COVERAGE
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration,
the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activity.
Such discharges shall be controlled, limited and monitored as specified in this 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. Any owner or operator wishing to obtain a No
Exposure Exclusion must submit a No Exposure Certification Notice of Intent (N01) form to
the Division; must receive approval by the Division; must maintain no exposure conditions
unless authorized to discharge under a valid NPDES stormwater permit; and must recertify
the No Exposure Exclusion annually.
SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES
Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge
stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system that
has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this permit. All stormwater discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this
permit.
Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an
allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization, or
approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this permit shall not cause or contribute
to violations of Water Quality Standards.

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The SPPP shall be maintained on site unless exempted from this requirement by
the Division. The SPPP is public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, paragraph 3 of this permit. The SPPP shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
1. Site Overview. The Site Overview shall provide a description of the physical facility
and the potential pollutant sources that may be expected to contribute to
contamination of stormwater discharges. The Site Overview 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 waters to which the stormwater outfalls
discharge, 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 points of stormwater discharge associated with industrial
activity. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify
whether any receiving waters are impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired
waters) or if the site is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been
established, and what the parameters of concern are.
(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 that
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall.
(c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: 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 and
finished grade; all drainage features and structures; drainage area boundaries and
total contributing area for each outfall; direction of flow in each drainage area;
industrial activities occurring in each drainage area; buildings; stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs); and impervious surfaces. The site map must
indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious, and the site map
must include a graphic scale indication and north arrow.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants during the previous three (3) years
and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
Part Il Page 1 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The permittee shall re -certify annually 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 Ill, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Strategy. The Stormwater Management Strategy shall
contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which
control or minimize the stormwater exposure of significant materials, including
structural and nonstructural measures. The Stormwater Management. Strategy, 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 rainfall and run-on flows. 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, this review shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater
run-on away from areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage a r' ls; 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 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). 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 may be used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit. The Division may allow exceptions to secondary
containment requirements for mobile refuelers, as with the exemption provided by
amendments to federal SPCC regulations, as long as appropriate spill containment
and/or diversionary structures or equipment is used to prevent discharge to surface
waters. Exceptions do not apply to refuelers or other mobile tankage used primarily
as bulk liquid material storage in a fixed location in place of stationary containers.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
PartII Page 2 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on 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.
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 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 Goad 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 surface waters and wetlands, industrial
activity areas (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 where not already addressed under
another element of the SPPP. Inspection of material handling areas and regular
cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely
compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and
housekeeping shall be recorded and maintained in the SPPP.
S. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur
as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a
minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year Qanuary to
June), and once during the second half (July to December), with at least 60 days
separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually).
These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater
discharge characteristic monitoring at the outfalls required in Part II B, C, and D of this
permit.
6. 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. The facility
Part II Page 3 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
personnel responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their
annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
7. Responsible Party. The SPPP shall identify a specific position or positions responsible
for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision of the SPPP.
Responsibilities for all components of the SPPP shall be documented and position
assignments provided.
8. SPPP Amendment and Annual Update. The permittee shall amend the SPPP
whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, site drainage,
maintenance, or, configuration of the physical features which may have a significant
effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of
the SPPP shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update
shall include:
(a) an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
(3) years, or the notation that no spills have occurred (element of the Site
Overview);
(b) a written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated far
the presence of non-stormwater discharges (element of the Site Overview);
(c) a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the on -site stormwater
BMPs (BMP Summary element of the Stormwater Management Strategy).
(d) a review and comparison ofsample analytical data to benchmark values (if
applicable) over the past year, including a discussion about Tiered Response
status. The permittee shall use the Division's Annual Summary Data
Monitoring Report (DMR) form, available from the Stormwater Permitting
Program's website (See'Monitoring Forms' here;
httl2:.//deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy min-eral-1 nd-resources/energy
mine ral-land-permits /stormwater-permits/npdes-industrial-sw).
The Director may notify the permittee when the SPPP 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 SPPP 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,
9. SPPP Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan and all appropriate BMPs consistent with the provisions of this permit,
in order to control contaminants entering surface waters via stormwater.
Implementation of the SPPP 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.
Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five (5) years and made
available to the Director or the Director's authorized representative immediately upon
request.

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
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 each
stormwater discharge outfall (00). 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 rescinded. 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 begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed. Drawing down the level of water in the onsite pond via
manual release in preparation for a large storm event such as a hurricane or in preparation for
maintenance is allowed in order to preserve pond integrity. In this case analytical sampling must be done
within the first 30 minutes of manual discharge.
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
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken within the monitoring period (see Part 111, Section E). However, for purposes
Part ll Page 5 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
of benchmark comparison and Tiered response actions, the permittee shall use the
analytical results from the first $aMple with valid results within the monitoring period.

1 Maintain semi-annual monitoring until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. The permittee must submit an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline (180 days before expiration) to be considered for renewed coverage
under the permit. The permittee must continue analytical monitoring throughout the permit
renewal process, even if a renewal permit is not issued until after expiration of this permit.
2 If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report
indicating "No Flow' or "No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period.
3 Monitorine periods remain consistent through the hermit term and through the renewal process.
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.
Part II Page 6 of 12

Permit No. NCS000369 DRAFT
If: The first valid sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any
parameter at an outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. 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 exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select the 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.
5. 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.
If: The first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods (omitting periods with no
discharge) 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 Flom' 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 saii�pling parameters or frequency.
5. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the•SPPP.
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations throughout the permit renewal process.
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 four occasions, the
permittee shall notify the DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth
analvtical results:
Then: The Division may but is not limited to:
require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring and reporting frequency for
some or all of the parameters herein;
0 require sampling of additional or substitute parameters;
• 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
• 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: ON -SITE VEHICLE MAINTENANCE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Facilities that have any vehicle maintenance activity occurring on -site which uses more
than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month when averaged over the calendar year
shall perform analytical monitoring as specified below in Table 4. All analytical
monitoring shall be performed during a measureable storm event at all stormwater
discharge outfalls (SDOs) that discharge stormwater runofffrom vehicle maintenance areas,
and in accordance with the schedule presented in Table 2 (Section B).

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.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (00) that discharges
stormwater runoff from area(s) where vehicle maintenance activities occur, unless representative outfall
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 gauge 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 II
Section B.
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table S. The benchmark
values in Table 5 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). 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 response to a

SECTION D: 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.
� ti
Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of
representative outfall status. Qualitative monitoring shall be performed semi-annually
during required analytical monitoring events (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 discharging stormwater associated with industrial activity must he 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.

Footnotes:
1 Monitoring Frequency: Twice per year during a measureable storm event unless other provisions of this
permit prompt monthly monitoring. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods. The permittee must
continue qualitative monitoring throughout the permit renewal'process until a new permit is issued.
2 Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each stormwater discharge outfall
(SDO) regardless of representative outfall status.
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.
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
require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.
SECTION E: SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A (1.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF MONITORING REPORTS [G.S.143-215.1(b)]

Mr. Bennett,
I have answered the questions below in yellow. Also we are now listed as "Fayetteville Public Works
Commission". None of the discharges on the spreadsheet were manual.
Let me know if you need anything else.
• Have there been any substantial changes at the facility, either construction changes or process changes, that
could impact stormwater runoff? IVo.
• Could you provide an updated summary of your monitoring results since the renewal application (2013 — 2017).
;4ttachedrspreadslieet • Is the site plan from 2013 still accurate or is there a new one. Yyes t issaccurate
• Can you provide us with the latitude / longitude location of all outfalls? We will need this as we move toward
federally required electronic reporting of monitoring data. (1 Outfallj; k35°05'46 6 N ,78°4948 OS",W

Thanks for responding Mr. May. Would there be a time next week when we can talk about the permit renewal? Since it
has been a while since your renewal application (2013) I'd like to get feedback from you on some things. For example:
• Have there been any substantial changes at the facility, either construction changes or process changes, that
could impact stormwater runoff?
• Could you provide an updated summary of your monitoring results since the renewal application (2013 -- 2017).
• Is the site plan from 2013 still accurate or is there a new one.
• Can you provide us with the latitude / longitude location of all outfalls? We will need this as we move toward
federally required electronic reporting of monitoring data.
• I'd also like to talk a little about the pond you have onsite. I have read through some things in the file, but I
think it would help to discuss this.
For next week I will most likely be available Monday -Wednesday if any of those days work for you.
Thanks

RE: Butler/Warner Generation Plant; NCS000369
Dear Bradley Bennett:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information
about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
A query of the NCNHP database, based on the project area mapped with your request, indicates that there are
no records for rare species,- important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas
within t e proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural
heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have
been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists.
In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may
update our records.
The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been
documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that
these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is
included for reference. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius of the
project area, if any, are also included in this report.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project
review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions.
Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the
NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP
data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature
Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF) easement,
or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please
contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney. butleQ ncdcr. gay or 919.707.8603.

Best Management Practices
Bulk Fuel Tank Storage and Secondary Containment
All secondary containments are inspected and logged before releasing rainwater; also the
closure of the valves used for the release is logged. Debris are cleaned from secondary
containment areas where applicable.
Fuel unloading Skid
The fuel unloading skid is equipped with secondary containment. The storm water drains for this
structure have been equipped with valves in the drain lines to prevent unauthorized discharges
of rainwater. These valves are opened only to drain excess rain water. This containment area is
treated as all other containment areas and is inspected before release and is logged as well,
including the closure of the valves.
Fuel Oil Tank Inventory
Fuel tank readings are taken and recorded on a daily basis. These levels are entered into a
database for tracking and trending purposes in order to prevent a potential leak from going
undetected.
Miscellaneous Tanks, Drums, Barrels and Stored Supplies
Miscellaneous tank, drums and barrels are stored in containment areas. Supplies are stored
near this area and potential areas where leaks might occur and near the point where the catch
basins empty into the storm water pond. A vinyl boom is installed across this narrow finger of
entrance point. Another boom is stored within two hundred feet of this location for quick
deployment if necessary. The boom that is permanently deployed is inspected and cleaned
once a year.
Log Rounds
Operators perform 8 log rounds a day inspecting plant equipment and looking for potential
problems with equipment, leak detection, and general housekeeping issues.

FYI, I have talked to the applicant several times recently to tweak the wording in the
footnote of his analytical monitoring. (This is the one with the 25yr pond). We clarified
some things, and also made an allowance for maintenance. Here is the final permit text.

Reggie,
Table 1, footnote 2 now reads, "If the stormwater runoff is controlled
by a stormwater detention pond, a grab sample of the discharge from the
pond shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. If the
detention pond is designed to hold the 25-year storm, and the pond
discharges in response to a rain event then analytical sampling is
required semi-annually, per Table 1. If the pond does not discharge in
response to a rain event during a six-month period as specified in Table
2, then analytical sampling is not required for that six-month period.
Drawing down the level of water in the pond via a manual valve in
preparation for large storm event such as a hurricane or in preparation
for maintenance is allowed in order to preserve the integrity of the
pond's berm. In this case, analytical sampling must be done within the
first 30 minutes of manual discharge. Sampling does not have to occur
during a representative storm event. If discharges occur less frequently
than semi-annually, then this information must be documented and
submitted to the Division in place of the analytical monitoring."

Reggie,
I just want to clarify that this is not a daily sample. You would only have to sample when
you start to drawdown the 25yr pond. That should happen very infrequently (statistically,
only once every 25 years). Since you want to be able to discharge more frequently than this
because you are concerned that your berm will fail, I wrote the draft permit so that you have
to sample every time you discharge. I got your voicemail, but I have been in and out of the
office and haven't returned calls yet today. If this doesn't address your concern, please
let me know.

Kelly,
I have forwarded your latest E-mail to the folks in our Water
Resources Division. They are the ones who will be doing this sampling
and helping to set up the training for the sampling that is done in the
field. They are to get back to me later this week with a clear
commitment on how much of this can be done in house and how much we will
have to contract out, an estimate of the costs and complexity of these
monitoring requirements and an overall recommendation of whether we can
support the additional level of monitoring that your draft policy will
impose on us for discretionary releases.
In my initial conversation with them they expressed the concern
that this level of monitoring may be much more complicated than our
staff here at BWGP will be able to handle and the daily frequency will
be more of a commitment than they can support with their resources. I
will get back to you with a firm answer by the end of this week.
Thanks!

Subject: Re: NCS 000369
Reggie,
I talked this over with some people here. I think I have come up with a better approach.
The issue here seems to be that you are concerned that your berm will fail if there is a
big storm. The drawdown of the pond needs our permit, but as we have discussed, it doesn't
fit into our normal permitting framework. So, I think that the best way to handle this is
is to sample the effluent as you start to drawdown to look for the chemical parameters in
the permit. If your tests indicate that your effluent is above the benchmarks, then you
have to take corrective measures as defined in the permit. And, you can drawdown at your
discretion in preparation for large storm events such as hurricanes. But, here is the new
part. We will handle the concerns about disturbing the habitat of the stream by
referencing the appropriate water quality standard (which you are subject to regardless of
what the stormwater permit says). 15A NCAC 02B .0211, Fresh Surface Water Quality
Standards for Class C Waters, establishes the requirements for the Best Usage of Waters as
"Aquatic life propagation and maintenance of biological integrity (including fishing and
fish), wildlife, secondary recreation, agriculture and any other usage except for primary
recreation or as a source of water supply for drinking, culinary or food processing
purposes." violators of this standard are subject to fines up to $25,000
per day per violation. This issue has come up in wetland permitting before, and as a
result the Division has a draft guidance policy on how to drawdown your pond so that you
are not in violation of this standard (attached). I do not know when this policy will
become final, but it should provide you with some general guidance (or to a consultant if
you -
choose to go that route). I have also attached the new wording for the permit as well as
the cover letter referencing the Standard.
From a "big picture" perspective, the fact that you do not have confidence in your berm
concerns me. if your pond is designed to hold the 25yr storm, meaning that it has
available capacity to hold that much
water, then it should also be designed with an appropriately designed berm. That is beyond
my stormwater permitting authority, but this is standard engineering practice. That may be
something to consider in ensuring that you comply with .0211.
Please call if you have questions,

Well, that was actually what I was trying to prevent. From a public perception

then
if the effluent contains pollutants above a certain level then the permittee would have
to take further measures. Here, this is a very different situation. I need to
establish a mechanism to ensure that
you
Iaren't negatively impacting water quality. I suppose you could sample
every time you discharge to ensure that the pollutants settled out in the pond before
it was drawn down. However, I am also concerned about
the potential volume of water that we could be talking about here. We I
don't typically constrain the volume because stormwater flow is the result of a natural
process. However, in this instance we could artificially create a situation that would
degrade the habitat of the stream- I will talk with some others here about this.

preparation for a large storm event with my supervisor and several co-workers. I
have revised footnote 2 of Table 1 to read as follows:
"If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a stormwater detention
pond,
a grab sample of the discharge from the pond shall be collected
within

Ithe first 30 minutes of discharge. If the detention pond discharges I

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.
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:
a. Feasibility Study. A review of the techriical 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 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 (5) 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 the potential of pollutant sources to contribute
Part II Page 2 of l0

Permit No. NCS000369
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges.
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, an oil 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 maybe 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. '
Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and
preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in 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.
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 that has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. 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.
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. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall
occur at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year
(January through June) and once during the second half (July through December), with at
least 60-days separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently). 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. These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the
stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring required in Part II of this permit.
9. Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Plan. 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 actions taken to
implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance
activities. Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made
available to the Director or the Director's authorizedrepresentative immediately upon
request.
Part 1I Page 4 of 10

Permit No. NCS000369
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.

I Measurement Frequency: Twice per year during a representative storm event, for each year until either another
permit is issued for this facility or until this permit is revoked or rescinded. If at the end of this permitting cycle
the permittee has submitted the appropriate paperwork for a'renewal permit before the submittal deadline, the
permittee will be considered for a renewal application. The applicant must continue semi-annual monitoring
until the renewed permit is issued. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods through the end of this
permitting cycle.
If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a stormwater detention pond, a grab sample of the discharge from the
pond shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. If the detention pond is designed to hold the 25-
year storm, and the pond discharges in response to a rain event then analytical sampling is required semi-
annually, per Table 1. If the pond does not discharge in response to a rain event during a six-month period as
specified in Table 2, then analytical sampling is not required for that six-month period. Drawing down the level
of water in the pond via a manual valve in preparation for large storm event such as a hurricane or in
preparation for maintenance is allowed in order to preserve the integrity of the pond's berm. In this case,
analytical sampling must be done within the first 30 minutes of manual discharge. Sampling does not
have to occur during a representative storm event. If discharges occur less frequently than semi-annually,
then this information must be documented and submitted to the Division in place of the analytical
monitoring.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless representative
outfall status has been granted.
4 For each sampled representative storm event the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain gauge or
local rain gauge reading must be recorded.
Part II Page 5 of 10

Permit No. NCS000369
The permittee shall complete the minimum ten analytical samplings in accordance with the
schedule specified below in Table 2. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period 1 and

of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a
row (consecutive):
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Contact the DWQ Regional Office in the event of four benchmark exceedances.
2. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One.
3. 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.
4. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a
monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow."
5. Maintain a record of Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
During the term of this permit, if the sampling results exceed the benchmark value, or are outside
the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on more than four
occasions, DWQ may:
Require that the permittee increase or decrease the monitoring frequency for the
remainder of the permit;
Part II Page 7 of 10

Permit No. NCS000369
• 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.
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, and during the
analytical monitoring event. 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.

32, Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
A TMDL is a calculation of the maximum amount of a pollutant 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. The Clean Water Act, section 303, establishes
the water quality standards and TMDL programs.
33. Toxic Pollutant
Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act.
34. 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.
35, Vehicle Maintenance Activity
Vehicle rehabilitation, mechanical repairs, painting, fueling, lubrication, vehicle cleaning operations, or
airport deicing operations.
36. Visible Sedimentation
Solid particulate matter, both mineral and organic, that has been or is being transported by water, air,
gravity, or ice from its site of origin which can be seen with the unaided eye.
37. 25-year, 24 hour storm event
The maximum 24-hour precipitation event expected to be equaled or exceeded, on the average, once in 25
years.

Reggie,
I talked this over with some people here. I think I have come up with a better approach. The
issue here seems to be that you are concerned that your berm will fail if there is a big
storm. The drawdown of the pond needs our permit, but as we have discussed, it doesn't fit
into our normal permitting framework. So, I think that the best way to handle this is is to
sample the effluent as you start to drawdown to look for the chemical parameters in the
permit. If your tests indicate that your effluent is above the benchmarks, then you have to
take corrective measures as defined in the permit. And, you can drawdown at your discretion in
preparation for large storm events such as hurricanes. But, here is the new part. We will
handle the concerns about disturbing the habitat of the stream by referencing the appropriate
water quality standard (which you are subject to regardless of what the stormwater permit
says). 15A NCAC 02B .0211, Fresh Surface Water Quality Standards for Class C Waters,
establishes the requirements for the Best Usage of Waters as "Aquatic life propagation and
maintenance of biological integrity (including fishing and fish), wildlife, secondary
recreation, agriculture and any other usage except for primary recreation or as a source of
water supply for drinking, culinary or food processing purposes." Violators of this standard
are subject to fines up to $25,000 per day per violation. This issue has come up in wetland
permitting before, and as a result the Division has a draft guidance policy on how to drawdown
your pond so that you are not in violation of this standard (attached). I do not know when
this policy will become final, but it should provide you with some general guidance (or to a
consultant if you choose to go that route). I have also attached the new wording for the
permit as well as the cover letter referencing the Standard.
From a "big picture" perspective, the fact that you do not have confidence in your berm
concerns me. If your pond is designed to hold the 25yr storm, meaning that it has available
capacity to hold that much water, then it should also be designed with an appropriately
designed berm. That is beyond my stormwater permitting authority, but this is standard
engineering practice. That may be something to consider in ensuring that you comply with
.0211.
Please call if you have questions,
Kelly

Well, that was actually what I was trying to prevent. From a public perception
perspective, I would be permitting you to discharge whatever,
whenever. This is sort of unchartered territory for us because we typically permit
facilities to discharge and sample during storms, then if the effluent contains pollutants
above a certain level then the permittee would have to take further measures. Here, this
is a very different situation. I need to establish a mechanism to ensure that you
aren't negatively impacting water quality. I suppose you could sample every time you
discharge to ensure that the pollutants settled out in the pond before it was drawn down.
However, I am also concerned about the potential volume of water that we could be talking

Re: NCS 000369
about here. We don't typically constrain the volume because stormwater flow is the result
of a natural process. However, in this instance we could artificially create a situation
that would degrade the habitat of the stream. I will talk with some others here about
this.

Kelly,
I have been discussing our stormwater permit and the provision
you have proposed with some of the environmental folks here at PWC.
They have suggested that I investigate the testing and reporting
requirements associated with simply being able to lower the pond level
at my discretion. I had not previously considered this option, but
they
seemed to feel that not much additional monitoring would be required
beyond what is proposed in the latest draft. Is this a possibility? What
additional requirements would
possibly be imposed?

Reggie,
I discussed the issue regarding the need to drawdown your 25yr pond in
preparation for a large storm event with my supervisor and several cc -workers. I have
revised footnote 2 of Table 1 to read as follows:
"If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a stormwater detention
pond,
a grab sample of the discharge from the pond shall be collected within
Ithe first 30 minutes of discharge. If the detention pond discharges
only
Iin response to a storm event exceeding a ten year design storm, then
no
Ianalytical monitoring is required and only qualitative monitoring
shall
Ibe performed. Drawing down the level of water in the pond via a manual
valve in preparation for large storm event such as a hurricane is allowed in order to
preserve the integrity of the pond's berm. In this

Re: NCS 000369
case, analytical sampling must be done as specified in Table 1. This does not have to
occur during a representative storm event. The permittee must document the following
items, and submit this
information
to the Division along with the analytical sampling results: 1.) The drawdown date and
time, 2.) The date of the expected rainfall, 3.) The
expected number of inches of rainfall, 4.) The expected number of feet I
of water rise in the pond in response to the expected rainfall, 4.)
The
Ilevel of water in the pond before drawdown (in feet), 5.) The level of
water in the pond after drawdown fin feet). The pond must not be manually drawn down
more than the expected number of feet of water
rise
in the pond in response to the expected rainfall. If discharges occur less frequently
than semi-annually, then document this information and
submit it to the Division in place of the analytical monitoring."
This has not been done before, so I am open to ideas for improvement. Let me know what
you think.

Mike,
Actually I thought about this a little bit more, and I have started a dialog with the
permittee that I thought I would share with you in case this comes up after I leave. I am
concerned about the effect of the volume of water entering the receiving stream that would be
involved with draining this pond to make room for hurricane rain. I decided to put some
language in the draft trying to confine the drawdown volume to the amount of water expected
from the upcoming storm. The way I did it was somewhat awkward (measuring the pond level
before and after drawdown), and I told him that this was unchartered territory for us and that
I was open to other ideas. He then asked me what he would have to do to be able to just
drawdown at his discretion. I talked with Ken some more, and then also with Niki Maher in the
enforcement group about how to put legal muscle behind the volume concern. She suggested that
I use the Class C water quality standard which defines best usage of water as including
biological integrity and other volume -related parameters. People who violate this standard
are subject to $25K/day fines. And, he is subject to this regardless of what the stormwater
permit says. So, I will put in the cover letter that in addition to our permit, he has to
comply with that standard. The Division has a pond drawdown policy that tells people how to
drawdown appropriately. (And she said that would typically refer the permittee to a
consultant if he needs help implementing the pond policy.) I have revised his draft permit to
say that he has to sample during the first 30 minutes of discharge if he is using a manual
valve to empty the pond before a storm. And, he has to sample every time he discharges (not
just twice a year like most individual permits). This is an attempt to not make it convenient
to drawdown frequently (after all it is supposed to be a 25yr storm pond). The person who has
the drawdown policy is out this afternoon, but I will get it and send him this info on Monday
and cc you.

OK, well I think that T will require that they sample twice a year unless they don't
have two discharges, and then they would have to submit a letter that they didn't have a
discharge (or two discharges) to sample. I will also have to delete the language about
the representative storm event in the permit because they won't necessarily be drawing
down during that time. I could make them do that, but that would essentially require
someone to have to sample during a hurricane and that is an obvious safety concern.
Thanks,
Kelly
Mike Lawyer wrote:
T'm leaning toward option 1 where they would sample any and every time that they
might discharge, which would probably be on rare occasions when a tropical storm or
hurricane may pass through. With option 2, I wonder about them ceasing sampling after
a few occasions then a storm event occurs that may wash pollutants into the pond
followed by a severe weather event where they would open the manual valve. Although
unlikely, there may be instances where pollutants are washed into the pond, but do
not have enough time to settle prior to the manual release of water in the pond.
Also, what mechanism would prevent them from releasing water out of the pond after
they've met the multiple sampling events showing no exceedances? They might think
they have a green light to release water whenever they choose and without evaluating
its quality. Just my thoughts. Thanks for letting me provide input.

Mike,
Another question has come up about this facility in regard to whether or not they
1 of 3 6/27/2008 1:15 PM

Re: NCS 000369, Public Works of Fayetteville
need to sample if they manually drawdown a detention pond that contains all of
their runoff. Their stormwater flows to a single pond which has been designed to
hold the 25yr storm. Their are only two ways to get water out of the pond;
evaporation and a manual valve. The permittee wants to be able to manually
drawdown the pond if a big storm is coming because he is concerned about
preserving the integrity of the berm. The draft permit says that if the pond is
designed to hold the 10yr storm, then they don't have to sample. I continued this
language from their previous permit because I think that that pond is "big enough"
that the water won't discharge very often, even if the pond is partially full and
the available volume is less than the 25yr volume. The 25yr pond would certainly
discharge less frequently than a 10yr pond, as required by their previous permit.
But, we are generally starting to get away from letting people get out of sampling
if they install a big pond. We have taken that language out of 9 of the general
permits now, and it isn't typically put into the individual permits anymore
either.
So, what do you think about.sampling requirements for the effluent of this pond?
If he manually draws down, then it isn't necessarily during a representative
storm. And, it may be quite a while after the storm (days, weeks, months, or even
years). He would be testing for TSS, iron, and pH. The solids will settle, and I
think (as a result of a quick internet search) that the heavy metals would be
attached to the particles. I am not sure that effluent data would contain any
useful information. I talked this over with Bradley and Ken. We came up with two
options that I thought I would run by you. 1.) Make them sample the effluent
whenever they discharge, or 2.) Make them sample a few times (maybe 4 times?). If
they don't exceed any parameters, then they do not have to continue sampling.
What do you think?
Thanks,
KJ

As far as the permit renewal, I really don't have anything to offer. Certainly
no concerns about the facility. One of our staff members recently inspected the
facility for compliance with their stormwater permit and found no issues. I've
received the hard copy of your staff report and will sign it and give to

We have received an individual stormwater permit application from the Public
Works Commission of Fayetteville's Butler -Warner Power Plant. This is part
of our significant backlog of permits, and expired in 2005. This site
drains to a UT of Locks Creek (Class C), and is designed to contain the 25
year storm. Like the facility's previous permit this permit only requires
sampling if the 10-year storm isn't contained (essentially they don't
sample). This seems to be a fairly easy one. I have attached the
application, the staff report, and the draft permit. Do you have any
concerns about issuing this permit? If riot, I will send it to notice in 30
days. I will send you the staff report as a hard copy to sign and return.
Also, FYI, I am leaving the Central Office in about one month. My husband

l . Owner's Other Permits: N/A
2, General Observations: This site appears to be fairly benign and the plant manager is well versed in the stormwater
requirements. This site is designed to drain to a pond which discharges only in response to a 25-year event, and the
permit only required sampling if the 10-year event could not be contained. The cover letter of the application
indicates that they had planned.to do analytical sampling following the application period, and send in that
information. That information is not on file. At the time they were applying, they were in discussions with DWQ
and local officials to discuss a potential situation where they could choose to drawdown their pond before a potential
hurricane or other large storm in order to avoid erosion and failure of their earthen berm. The permittee chose not to
pursue that option, and samples were therefore not collected. The permittee would like to continue to have the
option of not sampling unless the ten-year storm can not be contained. I chose not to require sampling if the 25-year
storm (rather than the 10-year storm) could not be contained because the permittee did not appear interested in
discharging unless the water would cause berm failure. I think that this is a reasonable situation.

o Analytical monitoring was not required because the 10-year storm can be contained.
o EPA Sector Specific permit requires testing for total recoverable iron and TSS. Add these to the permit
requirements if the pond is changed not to be able to contain the I 0-year storm.
6. Oualitative Monitoring Notes:
o The plant manager regularly performs qualitative monitoring.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Added total recoverable iron, per EPA's General Specific permit.
2. Added total suspended solids, per EPA's General Specific permit.
3. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
8. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
9. 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:
I. 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.

Dear Mr. Wallace:
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. As in
the previous permit, this permit requires analytical monitoring only if the 10-year storm can not be
contained.
The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit:
Analytical monitoring changes:
1. The pH monitoring has been continued since the previous permit.
2. Additional analytical monitoring for total recoverable iron .and total suspended solids have been
added in order to be consistent with the requirements of EPA's Sector Specific stormwater
permit.
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
p-rogram. 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 H 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.
7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall
parameter is in this permit, however.)
8. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with

analytical And qualitative monitoring. This requirement appears in all Individual Stormwater
permits, however it 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 11 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.
Please submit any comments to me no later than May 30, 2008. 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.

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 II1, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit, The Plan shall include, at a
minimum, the following items:
1. Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the
potential pollutant sources that 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 name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving
waters; and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. The map
should 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:

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.
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:
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 stormwker. 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 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 (5) years.
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 the potential of pollutant sources to contribute
Part II Page 2 of 9

Permit No. NCS000369
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, an oil 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.
5.. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and
preventative maintenance activities for .all personnel involved in 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.
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 that has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. 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.
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.
Part II Page 3 of 9

Permit No. NCS000369
8. Facility Inspection Program. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall
occur at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year
(January through June) and once during the second half (July through December), with at
least 60-days separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently). 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. These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the
stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring required in Part II of this permit.
9. Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Plan. 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 actions taken to
implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance
activities. Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made
available to the Director or the Director's authorized.representative immediately upon
request.

Permit No. NCS000369
SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. Ail
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 Measurement Frequency: Twice per year during a representative storm event, for each year until either another
permit is issued for this facility or until this permit is revoked or rescinded. If at the end of this permitting cycle
the permittee has submitted the appropriate paperwork for a renewal permit before the submittal deadline, the
permittee will be considered for a renewal application. The applicant must continue semi-annual monitoring
until the renewed permit is issued. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods through the end of this
permitting cycle.
2 If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a stormwater detention pond, a grab sample of the discharge from the
pond shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. If the detention pond discharges only in
response to a storm event exceeding a ten year design storm, then no analytical monitoring is required and only

Peer review notes, draft NCS000369 Butler Warner Generation Plant, Fayetteville
KBP
4/7/08
Notes:
1. Looks good as is, staff report signature provided.
2. Note sampling exclusion for 10-yr pond, rather than 25-yr pond, contrary to SPU
general guidance - - permit writer's judgment to continue with 10-yr pond supported
by these very good circumstances.
3. Consider:
a. Draft permit: Add requirement to contact RO in event of four exceedences in
box following Tier 2?
b. Eventual transmittal letter:
i. Call permittee's attention to Site Plan drawing requirements to; show
drainage area (there's just one, apparently, but the boundaries of it
may still be shown); show and label emergency overflow outfall.
il. Emphasize need to send in "No Flow" reports semi-annually.

Kelly,
There have been no significant changes to our facility or our
operations since 2000. We have only one discharge point, or outfall as
you refer to it. It is an emergency overflow in the berm surrounding
our stormwater containment pond which is designed to only overflow in
response to a 25-year rainfall event. All stormwater flows to the pond
and only leaves the site through the emergency overflow. We do not
make routine releases from the pond. The water that drains to the pond
simply evaporates over time. We have had overflows from the pond during
and after hurricanes and long periods of major rainfall that come close
together.
Thanks!

Reggie,
Also, have there been any significant industrial changes at your
facility since your previous permit was issued in 2000 (for instance,
have you had any significant expansions). And, how many stormwater
outfalls do you have? (An outfall is a point where water leaves the
boundary of your property through a ditch or other conveyance.) Where
are they? I have a map of your facility that shows the stormwater
drains, but it does not show how the water leaves the property. Does it
flow to the pond and then offsite?
Thanks,

Kelly,
Because our stormwater pond is esigned to only discharge in
response to a ten-year rainfall event, footnote 2 states that no
analytical monitoring is required. I will provide you with copies of
the qualitative monitoring data sheets that I do periodically. I will
have to get: my office assistant to scan them in so that I can send them
to you. It may not be until Monday.

Reggie,
Your facility's stormwater permit, NCS000369, expired on 3/31/05, and
you submitted an application for renewal (copy attached). We are
working through a significant backlog of permit applications, and I am
now renewing your file. Your permit required analytical monitoring for
pH, and I see in the cover letter that this sampling was not conducted.
There is a note in the file that you had planned to sample the next four
rain events and submit that data. The same is true for your qualitative
data. We do not have this data on file. Would you email me this
information?
Thanks,

your permit. 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 permit. As stated above, the application form must be completed and returned along with all
requested information by October 1, 2004 in order for the permit to be renewed by March 31, 2005.
Failure to request renewal by October 1, 2004 may result in a civil assessment of at least $500.00. 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 $25,000 per day.

PAR_ T 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 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 (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.
(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
Part II Page 1 of 6

Permit No. NCS000369
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 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) BN4P 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
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall ,; ment schedules of
inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment
Part II Page 2 of 6

Permit No. NCS000369
and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of
these areas shall be incorporated into the program.
5. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and
preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in 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.
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 Plan 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 implement BNIPs associated with the
industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall
be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his

Subject: Stormwater Management Proposal
PWC Butler Warner Generation Plant
Fayetteville, Cumberland County
Our office has completed their review of the Stormwater Management Proposal submitted in
September 1992 and January 1995 for the PWC Butler Warner Generation Facility that was
constructed near Fayetteville.
Our review of the Stormwater Management Plan for this facility indicates that the facility will
not have any discharge of stormwater runoff to the surface waters of the State except during a
storm event in excess of the 25-year, 24-hour design storm. All stormwater from the activity and
future expansion of the plant drains Tito a stormwater detention pond. This pond is designed to
store the runoff from the 25-year storm, 18.4 acre-feet of volume. The pond will be drawn down
by irrigation of the grassed areas around the plant to maintain sufficient storage. All wastewater
from the plant, such as cooling tower blowdown and demineralizer regenerate, are discharged to
the sanitary sewer system. -
Systems which are do not have a direct discharge to surface waters of stormwater runoff except
as a result of rainfall events in excess of the 25-year, 24-hour storm are not required to obtain
NPDES stormwater permits by this Division. Such systems are considered to be non -discharging
stormwater systems. There are no permits required for non -discharging stormwater systems. It is
our conclusion that this facility is not required to have permits under G.S. 143-215.1(a) for
stormwater from this facility.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Mr. Bill Mills of my staff at
919-733-5083 ext. 548.
Sincerely,
Coleen lins, P.E.
