Response to Audit — Town of Gibsonville
Dear Ms. Powell,
PHONE [phone]
The Town of Gibsonville received NC DEQ's Notice of Deficiency and MS4 Audit Report on November 24, 2021.
We were disappointed by the outcome of a Notice of Deficiency as the Town of Gibsonville is dedicated to
being good stewards of the environment. We have consulted with our Town Engineer and Stormwater
Manager, Josh Johnson, P.E. on the audit report and Mr. Johnson's summary is attached. As noted in Mr.
Johnson's letter, the Town of Gibsonville intends to comply with the Notice of Deficiency while also noting
discrepancies in the audit report.
As the Town works through these items, I have instructed Mr. Johnson, and other staff to work directly with
you and DEMLR staff to concentrate on improving the Town's stormwater program and if there are any
questions, please feel free to discuss directly with Josh or myself.
Sincerely,
r i r
Ben Baxley
Town Manager
