DANIEL SMITH Director Five Star Properties & Rentals LLC Attn: Michael Inscoe PO Box 601 Henderson, NC 27536 NORTH CAROLINA Environmental Quality October 14, 2019 Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal COC #NCG170190 Dear Permittee: For coverage under Stormwater General Permit for NCG170000, the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) is notifying you that your reissued Certificate of Coverage (COC) is available. This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended.) You must do three things: (1) You must access and print a copy of your new Certificate of Coverage (COC) via this website: https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-COC-Renewal (2) Also, you must obtain a copy of the new NCG170000 General Permit from our website here: https:Hdeq.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-land-resources/npdes-stormwater-gps. In addition to the full permit, the 2019 print package on the website includes revised monitoring forms. The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations with respect to discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six months from receipt of the permit to update your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) to reflect any new permit requirements. (3) In preparation for electronic DMR (eDMR) reporting, please enter your stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) locations here: https:Hdeq.nc. gov/about/stormwater-program/stormwater-outfall-collection North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources 512 North Salisbury Street 1 1612 Mail Service Center I Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1612 oegmmm ewimnIOMity 919.707.9200 How does the new General Permit affect Tier Status? The first sampling period in this General Permit began August 1, 2019. Tier 3 actions in Part IV of your permit are triggered by benchmark exceedances on four occasions beginning on the effective date of this permit and do not count prior exceedances. Likewise, Tier 2 actions are triggered by two consecutive benchmark exceedances beginning on the effective date of this permit and do not count prior exceedances. However, if your facility is already in Tier 2 (monitoring stormwater discharges monthly) or Tier 3, you must continue monthly monitoring until relieved through conditions of the permit or by DEMLR staff approval. When does electronic DMR reporting start? We are working toward on -boarding permittees with NPDES stormwater permits into the DEQ's eDMR system next year. Permittees will receive notification when our eDMR system is ready for registration to begin reporting monitoring data electronically. Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DEMLR. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), nor does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. If you have any questions regarding this renewal permit, please contact the DEMLR Stormwater Program at (919) 707-3640. Sincerely, for S. Daniel Smith Director, Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources cc: Stormwater Program permit file
