$5,000.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY
$36.57 Enforcement Costs
$5,036.57 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30) clays of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for
Remission Request."
Both forms should be submitted to the following address:
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
Option 3: File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings:
[f you wish to contest any statement in the attached assessment document you must file a petition for an administrative
hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You must file the petition with
the Office of Administrative Hearings within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. A petition is considered filed
when it is received in the Office of Administrative Hearings during normal office hours. The Office of Administrative
Hearings accepts filings Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m, and 5:00 p.m., except for official state

penalty may be granted only when one or more of the following five factors apply. Please check each factor that you

something you could not prevent or prepare for);

ASSESSMENT FACTORS
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private
property resulting from the violation;
Discharging effluent exceeding permit limits for ammonia nitrogen, BOD, TSS, TRC, and fecal coliform causes water
quality standard violations. Discharging effluent not meeting minimum DO and discharging below pH 6.0 is harmful to
water quality. Not monitoring for nitrate plus nitrite nitrogen, TRC, TKN, TN, pH, DO, total flow and TP increases risks tc
public health.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
Daily maximum permit limit for BOD was exceeded by 208% on 12.15.2021, and by 66% on 12.21.2021. Monthly BOD
limit was exceeded by 80%. Daily permit limit for TRC was exceeded for the following days: 12.13.2021, 12.14.2021,
12.24.2021, 12.25.2021, and 12.26.2021. Daily maximum permit limit for fecal coliform was exceeded by 37% on
12.08.2021, and by 505% on 12.15.2021. Daily maximum permit for ammonia nitrogen was exceeded by 78% on
12.15.2021, and by 89% on 12.21.2021. Monthly ammonia nitrogen was exceeded by 660%. Daily minimum DO was not
met on 12.07.2021. Daily maximum TSS limit was exceeded by 40% on 12.08.2021, and by 104% on 12.15.2021. Month!!
TSS limit was exceeded by 39%. TRC was not monitored for the week ending 12.11.2021. The following were not
monitored for the month: total flow, nitrite plus nitrate, TKN, TN — quantity and concentration, and TP. DO was not
monitored for the week ending 12.18.2021 and the week ending 12.25.2021.
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
Discharging effluent exceeding permit limits for ammonia nitrogen, BOD, TSS, TRC, and fecal coliform causes water
quality standard violations. Discharging effluent not meeting minimum DO and discharging below pH 6.0 is harmful to
water quality. Not monitoring for nitrate plus nitrite nitrogen, TRC, TKN, TN, pH, DO, total flow and TP increases risks tc
public health.
4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
The cost of rectifying the damage is not given.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
It is believed that no money was saved by the noncompliance.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
It does not appear that the violations were committed willfully or intentionally.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority;
There have been 12 enforcement cases within the past 12 months.
8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
