Dear Mr.Weaver: •% c

Under separate cover I have requested a renewal of a NPDES permit. This letter is to inform you of — -Li-
my opposition to the price tag of the renewal. If I recall correctly, the initial permit was $80.00. At the _
time of the first renewal it had risen to $120.00. Now the same renewal is $240.00. I think this
represents a jump in cost that is contrary to what the state agencies should be demonstrating to the
citizens of this state. My salary, for example, has not doubled in the past five years! I think this price
tag should be reevaluated.
•
Also, I wonder just what we receive for this "permit" ?? For example, I have three other of these
discharge pipes that discharge into a small creek in my yard. The smell from these pipes was very
offensive.At about the time of the last renewal, I asked that these be tested.The discharge pipes were
at this time completely out of the water, and buried in mud on the bank. Even the inspector said that
he would not want to live here, because he considered it a health hazard. That was because of the
oozing mud and mosquitoes. Anyway, later I was told that nothing could be done about this situation,
that it was all under the county's authority. My question then is, Why am I paying you for something
you evidently have no jurisdiction over??
I have taken it upon myself to dig these stinking pipes out of the mud bank and extend them out
into the creek to try to eliminate some of the smell. Since two of the properties that are dumping out
into the creek are rental properties, I don't think that any chlorination is taking place by way of adding
tablets to the filter system.
With all this, and then being told there was basically nothing I could do about the odor, or the
pipes unless I wanted to do it myself, I think you can understand why I am somewhat upset over what I
see as a totally inappropriate charge for this permit. I would appreciate hearing your comments on this.
Sincerely,
