Case No. LV -2015-0208
To Wastewater Branch:
Please find enclosed a check from the City of Charlotte in the amount of $596.97 that has been
assessed to Union Count Public Works (UCPW) for violations that occurred at the above
referenced facility.
Please note that this facility, while owned by UCPW, has been operated and maintained by
Charlotte Water per an inter -local agreement between to agencies as of June 1, 2014. Charlotte
Water is paying the civil penalty for this violation.
Earlier this year, UCPW and Charlotte Water submitted a joint letter asking for remission of the
NOV and any potential civil penalties.
While we are paying the civil penalty as directed and we are not choosing to ask for further
remission, we still affirm that the civil penalty may not be warranted due to the significant
changes and expenditures that have been made in the past year.
If you have any questions, or if you need further information please contact me at 704/497-8377
or by email at dkpadgettgcharlottenc.org
Sincerely,
Dawn K. Padgett
