Dear Mr. Gagne:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) has reviewed your submittal of the
No Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater Permitting form. Based on your
submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility as well as
observations made during site visits conducted by Mooresville Regional Office staff on May 26,
2021 of inspection, the Division is granting your conditional exclusion from permitting as provided
for under 40 CFR 122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your No Exposure Certification, you are obligated to maintain
no exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer
qualify for the No Exposure Certification, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit
coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as
an un-permitted discharge. You must self re -certify annually using the enclosed form, or obtain
NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from your facility. The annual self re-
certification does not need to be submitted to DEMLR unless requested.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to
obtain environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or
ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Mr. Chandler at (704) 663-
1699.
Sincerely,
EDocuSigned by:
