Dear Mr. Howell:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) 5-Day Report submitted by City
of Shelby. This review has shown the City of Shelby to be in violation of the requirements found in the subject

Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct the above noncompliance. Please note

starting December 1, 2007. Enforcement decisions are based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface waters,
