Dear Mr. Tillman:
Alan W. Klimek P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
This letter is to notify you that staff of the Washington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality
conducted a compliance inspection at the stonnwater treatment facilities serving Hatteras Island Plaza on March 1,
2007. A copy of the inspection report is included for your review. Please note the concerns indicated under the
comments section of the report. This inspection was conducted in connection with your request for renewal of permit
SW7970115. This inspection revealed that the permitted wet detention pond has not been satisfactorily maintained
which is a violation of permit SW7970115.
Specifically, the inspection revealed that there is excessive large stemmed growth and vegetation around the
pond. Part II 2., 3., and 4 of permit SW7970115 issued April 10, 1997 addresses the operation and maintenance
requirements for the wet detention ponds. These conditions require that the facilities be properly maintained and
operated at all times and that records of the maintenance activities must be kept and made available upon request.
Please submit a proposed list of maintenance activities and schedule within 30 days of receipt of this letter for
cleaning and returning the wet detention ponds to their original design. All work should be completed no later than
May 31, 2007. Please be advised that any violation of the conditions contained in permit SW7970115 may subject
you to appropriate enforcement actions in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A which
provides that a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) per violation may be assessed
against a person who fails to comply with permit conditions.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions regarding this matter please call Samir
Dumpor or me at [phone].
