Dear Mr. Keyes:

Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Permit Number: NCG210052
Burke County
On July 23, 2018, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your
request to rescind your NPDES Stormwater Permit Number NCG210052. On August 6,
2018 our office denied your request for rescission due to disturbed areas on your site. In
a subsequent inspection on October 9, 2018 our Asheville Regional Office verified the
stabilization of your site. In accordance with your request, Stormwater Permit Number
NCG210052 is rescinded effective immediately.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 will be happy to assist you in assuring the
proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you
would inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit
coverage.
