TOYA-I reviewed the above permits and had no questions on
Thomasville Furn. but on Spring Creek shouldn't we add the
condition on the limits page that monitoring is only required if
chlorine is used for backup disinfection. It was unclear if you
wanted to put the residual chlorine limit on the limits page also.
Please advise if you have any questions about these comments.

SFD/64 Lumber Plant
Renewal of NPDES Permit # NC 0023604
Dear Mrs. Stephens:

DENR
- ATER POINT SOURCE' FRAANCH
I am requesting that the North Carolina. Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ) renew the
NPDES permit NC0023604 issued to Thomasville Furniture Industries, Inc., SFD/ 64
Lumber Plant. There have been no changes to the facility since the permit was issued on
April 26, 1999. The appropriate renewal forms are enclosed in this letter.
SFD/64 Lumber Plant does not have a formal sludge management plan. When the waste
solids build up at the wastewater treatment plant, approximately every two to three years,
Neal's Septic Tank Pumping Service is called upon to pump off the solid waste. Mr.
Neal Fayne, Owner and Operator of this service, properly disposes of the solid waste by
taking it to the City of High Point Waste Treatment Plant.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this permit renewal, please feel free to
contact Rochelle Chisom, Manager of Environmental Affairs at [phone] or via e-
mail at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
