Subj ect: Attachment A Certification
Permit No. WQ0002004
Bass Farms, Inc, — Bass Farms Sausage
Wastewater Irrigation System
Nash County
Dear Mr. Bass:
It has come to our attention that the effluent sampling required under the subject permit is in need
of revision. To address this situation, we are forwarding herewith a modified Attachment A, certified
December 3, 2010, to Bass Farms, Inc. for the subject wastewater surface irrigation system.
On August 5, 2009, Session Law 2009-406, entitled "An Act to Extend Certain Government
Approvals Affecting the Development of Real Property Within the State," was enacted by the General
Assembly and signed into law. The Act, known as the Permit Extension Act of 2009, extends the
expiration date of certain government approvals and permits. On August 2, 2010, this Act was extended
an additional year. The subject permit falls within the scope of this Act and is therefore being
extended to October 31, 2013.
This certification is being issued to standardize the sampling schedule to three times a year
(March, July, and October), and to remove Fecal Coliform (Parameter Code 31616) and Total Nitrate
Nitrogen (Parameter Code 00620).
Please replace the existing Attachment A of Permit No. WQ0002004 that was previously
certified on June 9, 2010, with this modified Attachment A. It is the Permittee's responsibility to
ensure that a complete permit is created by inserting this modified Attachment A into Permit No.
WQ0002004, issued on June 9, 2010
This modified Attachment A shall be effective from the date of certification; shall void
Attachment A of Permit No. WQ0002004 that was previously (most recently) certified on June 9, 2010;
and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein and well as those specified in the
above -referenced permit. As always, remember to take the time to review this modified Attachment A
thoroughly, as some of the conditions contained therein may have been changed since the last
certification. Note that this modified Attachment A is hereby incorporated by reference into Permit No.
WQ0002004, issued on June 9, 2010.
