Re: Notice of Violation and Intent to Assess Civil Penalty
Neuse River Village WWTP, Wake County
Permit No, NCO038784
NOV-2021-LV-0556
Dear Mr. Vinson:
Aqua North Carolina, Inc. (Aqua) offers the following response to the above -referenced Notice of
Violation, which was issued for Solids, Total Suspended - Concentration exceeding the daily maximum
and monthly average found in May 2021 Discharge Monitoring Report.
The wastewater treatment plant was operating well during this time period. However, in the post-
treatment pond, natural influences such as algae growth and temperature variances have caused this
elevated TSS excursion. Aqua will apply for a permit modification to have the polishing pond removed
from the permit.
If you have any
Robert Krueger
Area Manager
