This letter is in response to the Notice of Violation, Case No NOV-2021-DV-0139 concerning the spill that occurred on November 12th, 2020 at 3815 Tinsley Drive Guilford County, High Point, North Carolina. This above spill was due to widespread flooding across Guilford County caused by tropical storm Eta. During this event there was up to 5 inches of rain that fell within a 24-hour period. Most rivers and streams where flooded due to the heavy rain. This location is being reviewed by our engineering department to help with flooding and other issues to create a plan to prevent any future spills in this area. We do believe this was an occurrence was due to the amount of rain that fell in such a short period of time. The area was cleaned once the water receded and since the event we haven't had any issues.
