NOTICE OF COMPLIANCE
Village of Clemmons
NPDES MS4 Permit No. NCS000410
Forsyth County
Dear Mr. Buffkin:
On July 15, 2019, staff from the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ)
conducted a compliance audit of the Village of Clemmons National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit. For your reference, a copy of
the MS4 Program Audit Report issued by DEQ is enclosed with this notice.
The audit identified minor deficiencies with the specific components of the MS4 permit that were
reviewed. The City should self -evaluate the permit components that were not reviewed by DEQ for
compliance: Section E: Construction Site Runoff Controls; Section F: Post -Construction Site Runoff
Controls; Section H: Total Maximum Daily Loads. The MS4 Phase II Audit Template on the DEQ
stormwater web site can be used for this purpose.
In accordance with Part VI of the permit and DEQ policy, a new 5-year MS4 permit will be issued in
response to the audit. As such, the Village of Clemmons is required to complete the following actions:
(1) Respond in writing within thirty (3 0) calendar days from the date of receipt of this notice to
acknowledge these requirements and the intent to comply.
(2) Develop a Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) which details specific actions, measurable
goals, and implementation timelines for the stormwater management program over the new 5-
year permit term. The SWMP must be documented utilizing the DEQ Phase II MS4 SWMP
Template. The Village of Clemmons shall submit the SWMP to DEQ for review and comment
within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days from the date of receipt of this letter.
(3) Submit an NPDES MS4 permit application within thirty (30) days of receiving written DEQ
concurrence that the submitted SWMP documents a compliant stormwater management
program. A new 5-year NPDES MS4 permit will be public noticed along with the submitted
SWMP.
