Jane, I would like to refer back to your email of July 6th where you explained that 'the only thing left' is confirmation of septic tank demolition before applying rot the rescission of the permit. I had the septic tank demolished as requested, submitted documentation, and now you are telling me I need to do something in addition. If you had conveyed that nformationr I would have asked Mr. Byrd (I am assuming that is who you meant by Mr. Currie?) to do it when he did the demolition work At this point, given that I know the septic tank demolition ;s not actually a legal requirement for rescission of permit, I am requesting that you provide me with the Durham County statutes/regulations on what is legally required for rescission of permit to be granted. Respectfully, Liz Dear On Wed, Ju:6, 2022 at 8:18 AM Bernard, Jane <jane.bernard(ncdenrggs> wrote Liz, The only thingielis confirmation from your plumber that states the status of the septic tank that was part of our NCG55 permit. Once we receive the proof of "demolition ' from a Iicenced installer you will need to request a rescission of the Sand Filter Permit. The request can be a simple letter that includes the Permit 8 and address. Please be sure to sign it and send it to me. You can email a copy or send the request at the address below. Once I receive it I will walk it through our process. Please feel free to contact me at the numbers below. If you choose not to rescind the permit then the Division expects all fees to be paid as required by permit. Invoices will be sent as a separate email.

This is a test that can be performed to verify the true sewer connection.
