Subject.: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG 180117
Plant # 3
Catawba County
On August 25, 2014 the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to rescind
your coverage under Certificate of Coverage Number NCG 180117. In accordance with your request,
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG1801 17 is rescinded effective immediately.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.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact us at 919-707-9200, or the Stormwater staff in our
Mooresville Regional Office [phone].
Sincerely,

Zahid,
I was able to do a site visit for NCG180118 Southern Furniture Plant 2 on 9/11/14. I would recommend NOT approving
their request for permit rescission at this time. During the inspection it was noted there were three, single -walled Laquer
Thinner tanks that had significant rust, evidence of leaking and had not been professionally cleaned out (still contained
the Thinner). There was also a single -walled diesel fuel tank with no secondary containment on site which is still used to
fill up their fork lift. There was an old fork lift they still use as well as a back hoe with a blown motor still on the
site. Until these items are addressed, the facility needs to continue to follow all steps within their current permit.
Thank you,
