Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct the above noncompliance. Please note
that the Division of Water Resources (DWR) began assessing civil penalties for severe and/or repeat SSOs
starting December 1, 2007. Enforcement decisions are based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface waters,
duration, gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills and other factors.
If you should have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ron Boone with the Water Quality Section
in the Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9800 or via email at ron.boone(ancdenr.gov.
