Dear Mr. Holcombe:

monitoring wells were not sampled for Total Phosphorus in the 2021 calendar year. This
is a violation of the subject permit. Moving forward be sure to sample all wells for
Total Phosphorus.
Please review the enclosed inspection report for additional comments and observations. If you
