Sanitary Sewer Overflows - December 2020
Collection System Permit No. WQCSD0727
Iredell County Solid Waste
Iredell County
Dear Mr. Lambert:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report/s submitted by
Iredell County Solid Waste. The Division's Mooresville Regional Office concludes that the Iredell County Solid Waste
violated Permit Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCSD0727 by failing to effectively manage, maintain, and operate
their collection system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or surface waters and the
SSO constituted making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit
is required by G.S. 143-215.1.
The Mooresville Regional Office is providing the Iredell County Solid Waste an opportunity to provide evidence and
justification as to why the Iredell County Solid Waste should not be assessed a civil penalty for the violation(s)
that are summarized below:

This Notice of Violation / Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/NOI) is being issued for the noted violation. Pursuant
to G.S. 143-215.6A, a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) may be assessed
against any person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of any
permit issued pursuant to G.S. 143-215.1.
This office requests that you respond to this Notice, in writing, within 10 business days of its
receipt. In your response, you should address the causes of non-compliance, remedial actions, and all other
actions taken to prevent the recurrence of similar situations. The response to this correspondence will be
considered in this process. Enforcement decisions will also be based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface
waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills or recreational area closures. Other factors
considered in determining the amount of the civil penalty are the violator's history of non-compliance, the cost of
rectifying the damage, whether the spill was intentional and whether money was saved by non-compliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Michael Mellinger or me with the Water Quality Section
