The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources has reviewed your submittal of the No -

submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, and the
inspection dated January 3, 2019, this Division is granting your conditional exclusion from
Permitting as provided for under 40 CFR 122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North
Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your no -exposure certification; you are obligated to
maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. if conditions change such that your facility can
no longer Qualify for a No -Exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES
permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to
enforcement as an unpermitted discharge.
You must self re -certify your No -Exposure status annually and the form can be downloaded by
visiting the following web page for the 'Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
Stormwater Program:
http://portal. ncdenr.org, webllr/npdes-stormwater
The annual self re -certification does not need to be submitted to DEMI..R unless requested. A
copy should be maintained in your file.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to
obtain environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations
or ordinances.
