If you wish to provide additional information regarding the noted violation, request technical assistance, or
discuss overall compliance please respond in writing within ten (10) business day after receipt of this Notice. A
review of your response will be considered along with any information provided on the submitted Monitoring

Remedial actions should have already been taken to correct this problem and prevent further occurrences in the

Consent.
Reminder: Pursuant to Permit Condition 6 in Section E, the Permittee is required to verbally notify the Regional
Office as soon as possible, not to exceed 24 hours, from first knowledge of any non-compliance at
the facility including limit violations, bypasses of, or failure of a treatment unit. A written report may

potential problems due to planned maintenance activities, taking units off-line, etc.
