Box 1834 Statesville, NC 28687 Dear Mr. Steele: Donald R. van der Vaart Secretary January 7, 2015 Subject: Relief from Monthly Monitoring Stormwater Permit # NCG030255 J.C. Steele & Sons Iredell County Statesville, NC We are in receipt of your December 16, 2014 letter documenting best management practices implemented at the Statesville facility and requesting relief from monthly monitoring. Based on the information provided and. a site inspection conducted September 19, 2014 the facility is in compliance with the tiered response actions and other conditions of the NCG030000 General Permit. Therefore, the Division is granting regulatory relief from the Tier responses. Upon receipt of this letter, the subject facility may resume the permit specified semi-annual analytical monitoring for the remainder of the current permit term which expires on October 31, 2017. This decision applies only to the copper and zinc benchmarks. A benchmark exceedance of any other parameter listed in your permit will trigger the tiered response actions as described in the general permit. You must notify this office, in writing, within five business days if you become aware of any significant source of copper or zinc at your facility that has the potential to be exposed to stormwater. The relief granted in this letter is contingent upon the current industrial practices at J.C. Steele & Sons. If industrial practices change and copper or zinc does become a significant stormwater exposure risk or significant zinc or copper values have been recorded during regular sampling events, then this office reserves the right to withdraw this decision and reinstate the permit specified tiered response or other actions that may be warranted by the new set of circumstances.

Iredell County Dear Mr. Beaver: The Mooresville Regional Office staff have reviewed your request dated April 25, 2012 for a determination that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) 1 and 3 be granted representative outfall status for stormwater outfalls 2 and 3a. Based on the information and maps provided and site visit performed by Ms. Donna Hood of this Office on 01/09/2013, we are approving this request. In accordance with 40 CFR §122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample outfall number 1 as a representative outfall for outfall 2 and sample outfall 3, representative of outfall 3a. This approval is effective with the next sampling event. We also want to remind you that the permit still requires Qualitative Monitoring be performed at all SDOs regardless of representative status. Please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedences as directed in the tiered response provisions of your permit must address all drainage areas represented by SDOs 1 and 3, where appropriate.

Steele submitted for Representative Outfall Status (ROS) on April 25, 2012. The facility requested ROS for Outfalls 3a and 2, to be represented by Outfall 3 and Outfall 1, respectively. A site review confirmed the requested ROS outfalls are representative of the stormwater discharge associated with outfalls 3a and 2. Additionally, there are serious safety concerns with Outfall 2, as it discharges to an active railroad spur line. For the safety of employees, qualitative observation at this outfall should not be taken from the railroad tracks but observed from the concrete lot, behind the fence. The ROS request is approved as requested. Permit and Outfalls # is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? # Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? # If the facility has representative outfall status, is it properly documented by the Division? # Has the facility evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges?

MUL$ERRY TOLL FREE 71VISON AND QUALITY SECTION -.rnC1VCr1 DEC 22 2014 IJtrw, i Mum i' Ur r rvir"MEN PA WzWAL FEBOLKS Please find enclosed the Stormwater Discharge Outfall Monitoring Report for permit number NCGO30255 for the J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc., facility in Statesville. Previous testing for outfails #1 and #3 resulted in Tier Two monthly sampling. The results from this stormwater event will again put outfall #3 above the benchmark for copper and per the November results, zinc is also above the benchmark thus triggering Tier Three actions. The November results also put copper at the Tier Three level for the first time at outfall #1. As stated in our last letter dated August 25, 2014; J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. operates metal finishing processes at our location. The facility instituted Tier One and Tier Two actions as a result of previous benchmark exceedances. J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. has implemented the following best management practices in an effort to reduce the metals discharged to the stormwater. • Implemented a stronger good housekeeping program including more frequent sweeping. • Changed several of our dust collector stacks from horizontal to vertical discharge and extended the height of the stacks. • Replaced broken asphalt and concrete so these areas can be better swept. • Had consultants on site to review and comment on our stormwater issues. • Cleaned around storm drains and installed filter barrier material in some areas. Installed curbs around stormwater drains to help settle the solids. • Curbing was installed at outfall #5 to redirect the water flow to a pit filled with rip -rap in an effort to slow down the water flow and help settle solids before reaching the outfall. This has resulted in No -Flows for each rain event. • After speaking with Mr. Michael Parker (NCDENR) the flow at outfall #4 was redirected to outfall #6. This was accomplished by installing a trench to redirect the water flow through a ditch filled with rip -rap material and then through a grassy area before reaching outfall #G. • Before reaching Tier Three status a roof was installed over a dumpster and wash area. Also a trench was installed to redirect water flow to a ditch filled with rip -rap material in an effort to slow down water flow and help settle solids. The costs just for these two installations were over $42,000. • So far J. C. Steele has spent an additional $57,000 on the other improvements listed above. • J. C. Steele has also collected rain samples from the machine shop roof in May 2014. These samples were collected in the outfall #3 area before the water hit the ground. The copper level was 0.026 and the zinc level was 0.41 both of which exceed the benchmarks set forth in our permit. After sending you notification back in August of this year, James Moore and Samar Bou- Ghazale came by to see our site. During their visit Mr. Bou-Ghazale suggested we add mulch to a holding pit at outfall #1 to try and capture the copper and zinc in our stormwater. This project has been completed per his request. Mr. Moore suggested we move a hopper containing metal chips/shavings from our machine shop operation to a covered area and to contain the leaks coming from the hopper. This project too has been completed. Our permit requires notification to the Raleigh Office in writing when Ter Three status is reached. -This notification was forward to the Raleigh Office along with a statement telling of , riot ication. You will find a summaryof the lab analysis for outfall #1 and outfall #3 for the 1;rn h of November. Having put in place all the best management practices shown above; J. C. Steele would like to again request a reduction in monitoring requirements. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Mark Beaver, of J. C.

I have been looking at ways to deal with the dumpster but will need to check with the Shop Manager next week when he returns from vacation.

C. Steele & Sons, Inc., facility in Statesville. Previous testing for outfalls #3, #5 and #6 resulted in Tier Two monthly sampling which is the reason for this report. The results from this stormwater event will put outfall #3 above the benchmark for copper thus triggering Tier Three actions. J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. operates metal finishing processes at our location. The facility instituted Tier One and Tier Two actions as a result of previous benchmark exceedances. J. C. Steele & Sons, Inc. has implemented the following best management practices in an effort to reduce the metals discharged to the stormwater. • Implemented a stronger good housekeeping program including more frequent sweeping. • Changed several of our dust collector stacks from horizontal to vertical discharge and extended the height of the stacks. • Replaced broken asphalt and concrete so these areas can be better swept. • Had consultants on site to review and comment on our stormwater issues. • Cleaned around storm drains and installed filter barrier material in some areas. • Installed curbs around stormwater drains to help settle the solids. • Curbing was installed at outfall #5 to redirect the water flow to a pit filled with rip -rap in an effort to slow down the water flow and help settle solids before reaching the outfall. This has resulted in No -Flows for each rain event. • After speaking with Mr. Michael Parker (NCDENR) the flow at outfall #4 was redirected to outfall #6. This was accomplished by installing a trench to redirect the water flow through a ditch filled with rip -rap material and then through a grassy area before reaching outfall N. • Before reaching Tier Three status a roof was installed over a dumpster and wash area. Also a trench was installed to redirect water flow to a ditch filled with rip -rap material in an effort to slow down water flow and help settle solids. The costs just for these two installations were over $42,000. • So far J. C. Steele has spent an additional $57,000 on the other improvements listed above. • J. C. Steele has also collected rain samples from the machine shop roof in May 2014. These samples were collected in the outfall #3 area before the water hit the ground. The copper level was 0.026 and the zinc level was 0.41 both of which exceed the benchmarks set forth in our permit. Our permit requires notification to the DWQ Regional Office Supervisor in writing when Tier Three status is reached. Mark Beaver with J. C. Steele has contacted Donna Hood with NCDENR in Mooresville by phone and Zahid Khad with NCDENR in Mooresville by letter. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Mark Beaver, of J. C.

The intent is to " keep stormwater from flowing in this area. Cost: $29,662 5/27/2013 Outfall #3 at Machine Shop • A concrete trench was installed across the driveway at the ramp leading up to the back of the machine shop. The water from the trench flows into a ditch filled with rocks and then onto a concrete pad before flowing into outfall #3. The intent was to direct the water flow in this area to the rock filled ditch to help settle any solids in the water. • Cost: $13,134 6/28/2013 Outfall #1 Driveway at Hut • Replaced the broken concrete with new concrete. We can now sweep this area better and get up more of the dirt and bits of metal that used to get caught in the storm water flow. The old concrete area was broken up so bad that you couldn't sweep this area very well. All the material in this area would wash to outfall #1. * Cost: $9,054 9/16/2013 Outfall #1 at Machine Shop • A pit filled with rock was installed prior to the water flow reaching outfall #1. The intent is to have some of the water soak into the ground and to help the solids settle before the water reaches outfall #1. During light rains the water flow never reaches outfall #1. • Cost: $5,833 { a RAIN GAUGE OBSERVATION LOG SHEET Month: January Year: 2014 =Rain ObservationTrimeg Amount inches Observer's Name Remarks (severe weather, plant closed, etc.) Sample Y N 1 PLANT CLOSED - HOLIDAY N 2 7:00am(Fri.Jan. 3) 0.57 Mark Beaver Started around 11:45 am as light rain [RAIN SAMPLE] Y 4_ 5 17:00 am IMon.

Iredell County Dear Mr. Beaver: The Mooresville Regional Office staff have reviewed your request dated April 25, 2012 for a determination that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO)1 and 3 be granted representative outfall status for stormwater outfalls 2 and 3a. Based on the information and reaps provided and site visit performed by Ms. Donna Hood of this Office on 01/09/2013, we are approving this request. In accordance with 40 CFR §122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample outfall number 1 as a representative outfall for outfall 2 and sample outfall 3, representative of outfall 3a. This approval is effective with the next sampling event. We also want to remind you that the permit still requires Qualitative Monitoring be performed at alll SDOs regardless of representative status. PIease remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedences as directed in the tiered response provisions of your permit must address all drainage areas represented by SDOs 1 and 3, where appropriate.

Steele submitted for Representative Outfall Status (ROS) on April 25, 2012. The facility requested ROS for Outfalls 3a and 2, to be represented by Outfall 3 and Outfall 1, respectively. A site review confirmed the requested ROS outfalls are representative of the stormwater discharge associated with outfalls 3a and 2. Additionally, there are serious safety concerns with Outfall 2, as it discharges to an active railroad spur line. For the. safety of employees, qualitative observation at this outfall should not be taken from the railroad tracks but observed from the concrete lot, behind the fence. The ROS request is approved as requested. Permit and Outfalls # Is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? # Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? # If the facility has representative outfall status, is it properly documented by the Division? # Has the facility evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges?

Governor Director December 4, 2012 David Steele J C Steele And Sons Inc PO Box 1834 Statesville, NC 28687 Dee Freeman Secretary Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal J C Steele And Sons Incorporated COC Number NCG030255 Iredell County Dear Permittee: In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG03D000 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued General Permit. This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). The following information is included with your permit package: • A new Certificate of Coverage (COC) • A copy of General Permit NCG030000 • A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit • Two copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form • Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations for discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six (6) months from the time of receipt of the permit to update your current SPPP to reflect all new permit requirements. The first sample period of your permit begins January 1, 2013. Your facility must sample a "measureable storm event" beginning during the periods beginning January 1 and July 1 of every year (or, if applicable, report "No Flow," as outlined in Part III, Section E). Also, please note that Tier 3 Actions in Part II of your permit are triggered by benchmark exceedances on four occasions beginning on the effective date of this permit and do not count prior exceedances. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last COC was issued are noted either in the Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice (http:Llportal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/current- notices), or in the Response to Comments / Summary of Changes and Technical Bulletin documents that are posted on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website with the new General Permit. Please visit http://Portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/wslsu/npdessw (click on 'General Permits' tab) to review that information for your specific General Permit carefully. 1617 Mail Service Center, Ralegh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

Additional conditions for specific industry sectors have been added to the SPPP requirements in some cases. • Sections 8, C. Failure to perform analytical stormwater monitoring may result in the Division requiring that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme. • Sections 8, C: A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/I for HQW, ORW, PNA and Tr Waters applies to these more sensitive waters. • Sections 8, C. The monitoring parameter Oil & Grease (O&G) has been replaced by the parameter Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) for vehicle maintenance areas, and in some cases, other analytical monitoring requirements. • Sections 8, C, D: Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be recorded in the SPPP, or in separate on -site records if your General Permit does not require an SPPP. Adverse weather is defined in the "Definitions" section of the permit. • Sections 8, C. The term "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm Event." A measurable storm event is defined in the permit. • Section D: If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative monitoring, DWQ may require the permittee to perform corrective action. Please review Parts ill and IV to understand the Standard Conditions of your new NPDES General Permit, including Compliance and Liability, Reporting, Monitoring and Records requirements; Operation and Maintenance obligations; and Definitions. Please note that all samples analyzed in accordance with the terms of this permit must be submitted to the Division on Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms available on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website above. DMR forms must be delivered to the Division no later than 30 days from the date the facility receives the sampling results from the laboratory. Also note that existing permittees do not need to submit a renewal request prior to expiration unless directed by the Division. Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. If you have any questions regarding this permit package, please contact the Division's Stormwater Permitting Unit at (919) 807-6300.

The facility operates under NPDES General Permit NCG030255. During a recent site inspection, the facility has discovered a new outfall at the site. A stormwater drain which was previously thought to have been tied into an existing outfall is located near a northwestern wall at the Machine Shop. The stormwater drain is piped underneath the building and discharges to the storm drainage system located along Mulberry Street The facility has designated the new outfall as Outfall 3a. Since manufacturing operations in Drainage Area 3a are similar to operations in Drainage Area 3, we request Representative Outfall Status (ROS) for Outfall 3a. Stormwater exposure in Drainage Area 3a includes scrap equipment, cast parts, a drum crusher, painted metal parts and a dust collection system. In addition, we request Representative Outfall Status for Outfall 2. Drainage Area 2 consists mainly of roof drain discharge. Stormwater exposure in this drainage area includes cast parts and painted metal parts. Since stormwater exposure in the area associated with Outfall 1 is similar to Outfall 2, we request ROS for Outfall 2. Please find attached a Representative Outfall Status Request Form (Attachment A), two copies of the Site Plan (Attachment B), and Analytical Monitoring results (Attachment Q. J.C. Steele understands that Representative Outfall Status does not eliminate the qualitative monitoring or inspection requirement for each outfall.
