Dear Benjamin Hartman:

Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Ready Mixed Concrete Co — Rural Hill Plant 73
Certificate of Coverage: NCG 140169
Forsyth County
On December 20, 2022, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to
rescind your coverage under NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG 140000. In accordance with your request
and a site visit from the Winston-Salem Regional Office, Certificate of Coverage NCG 140169 is
rescinded effective immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater, or discharging specific types of stormwater to
waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit is against federal and state laws and
could result in fines. If something changes and your facility would again require stormwater or
wastewater discharge permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. We would be happy to
assist you in assuring the proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you would be performing a public service if you inform the
new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage. If you have questions
about this matter, please contact Brittany Cook at [phone], or the Stormwater staff in our
Winston-Salem Regional Office at [phone].
Sincerely,
5� �
