This letter serves to notify you of the reporting requirements. Please be advised that

To assure that the report is received by the required deadline, this office suggests the
submittal of an electronic copy, followed by a hard copy, to meet the compliance deadline. I
appreciate your help in keeping the air in eastern North Carolina as clean as possible. If you
have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, feel free to contact Mr. Robert Bright or
me at(252) 946-6481.
