On December 18, 2014 I called Mr. Enos and was left a message with the receptionist. I was told that the best

way to contact him would be via email. Please see attached email correspondence

( senos@selectenergyservices.com ).

On January 15 th 

### , B illey Goble called me and asked a few follow up questions. I gave him some background

information on what we use the data for and he said their facility is working on preparing a memo and will add

in 2014 data. They have a salt storage pa d and have made changes to decrease the runoff which he will discuss

in the memo. Mr. Goble said he could be reached on his cell at 724

- 531

- 5028.

I called Mr. Goble on 1/23 and left a message. I followed up with an email on 1/26.

On January 27 th 

### , I received a call from Diane Perkins with Cirrus Associates. She is a consultant for SES Assets

LLC. She stated that the facility is a sand and gravel hauling facility with large salt piles on site. The facility

was originally owned by Lambert Trucking w ho never sampled their wastewater. The company only put berms

in place around the salt piles. In 2010 SES Assets bought the site and acquired all the environmental issues

brought on by mishandling of the site by Lambert Trucking. SES Assets is a holding c ompany and SES

Services is a subsidiary which runs the site. Recently, SES Services has changed to Affirm Oil Fill Services.

The NPDES permit is held by SES Assets LLC. Billey Goble works for SES Services.

The facility has done a lot of remediation over the past 5 years to reduce the stormwater runoff from the large

salt piles. These activities are described in the memo sent from Mr. Goble on 1/19/15. Outfall 001 is not in the

salt storage area but Outfall 002 and 003 are in the salt storage area. The alu minum and chloride discharges are

a result of the large salt piles. Ms. Perkins stated that the 2013 aluminum and chloride DMR data is most likely

correct. The salt has been stored on site since the 1970s and in 2010 when SES Assets purchased the site it w as well contaminated. SES Services/Affirm Oil Fill Services doesn’t actually own the salt; it is unloaded at their

site and sold to WV DOT to use on roads in the winter. Because of the large amount of contamination, the

facility is selling their remaining salt piles and do not plan to continue storing salt on site anymore. Ms. Perkins

also stated that sampling was done of the Ohio River since 2010 and they did not find any impacts on the river

from the stormwater runoff on the site. I sent a summary email to Ms. Perkins with the information we are

requesting, she is planning to check with her client on confirming the DMR data.

The CWA requires EPA to annually review and, if appropriate, revise its water pollution control technology

- based

regulations, called "effluent limitations guidelines" or "effluent guidelines," that limit the discharge of pollutants to wat ers

of t he U.S. from various categories of industrial facilities. EPA is currently conducting its 2015 annual review of existing

effluent guidelines and potential industrial guidelines which may need to be included (see

http://www.epa.gov/guide/304m/ for further information). EPA will discuss this review and the results in its 2015 Effluent

Guidelines Program Plan scheduled for publication in the Federal Register sometime in 2015 or 2016. As part of the 2015

annual rev iew, EPA is evaluating the data in discharge monitoring reports from 2013 and needs further information to

complete the review.
