(DEQ) conducted a compliance audit of the City of Greenville (City) National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4)

by DEQ is enclosed with this notice.
The City should self -evaluate the permit components that were not reviewed by DEQ for
compliance: Part II Section B: Public Education and Outreach; Section C, Public Involvement
and Participation; and Section E: Construction Site Runoff Controls. The MS4 Phase II Audit
Template on the DEQ stormwater web site can be used for this purpose.
In accordance with Part VI of the permit and DEQ policy, a new 5-year MS4 permit will be
issued in response to the audit. As such, the City is required to complete the following actions:
(1) Respond in writing within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of this
notice to acknowledge these requirements and the intent to comply.
(2) Develop a Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) which details specific actions,
measurable goals, and implementation timelines for the stormwater management
program over the new 5-year permit term. The SWMP must be documented utilizing the
DEQ Phase II MS4 SWMP Template. The City shall submit the SWMP to DEQ for
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources

review and comment within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days from the date of
receipt of this letter.
(3) Submit an NPDES MS4 permit application within thirty (30) days of receiving written
DEQ concurrence that the submitted SWMP documents a compliant stormwater
management program. A new 5-year NPDES MS4 permit will be public noticed along
with the submitted SWMP.
(4) Respond to public comments on the Draft SWMP and submit a Final SWMP for DEQ
approval and final permit issuance. The final DEQ-approved SWMP shall become an
enforceable component of the NPDES MS4 permit.
Required documentation shall be submitted via e-mail to [e-mail], or to:
