Oxford WWTP

Grade IV Biological WPCS
SIC Code 4952
Dear Mr. Thornton:
Division personnel found a typographical error regarding the Sign Date on the cover page of the
permit, referencing a date of February 25, 2020 which did not match the transmittal cover letter or
the DocuSign date of February 25, 2021. A minor technical correction has been issued to remedy
this error, and the permit Sign Date has been corrected to be February 25, 2021.
Additionally, the City of Oxford has noted and requested that the permit cover and supplement to
cover pages be revised to correctly reference the Permittee as "City of Oxford" instead of "Town
of Oxford."
This minor technical correction does not affect any other terms, conditions, or compliance actions
covered by the permit.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Nick Coco at [phone] or
via email at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
rii�ADocuSigned by:
