OBSERVED VIOLATIONS:
15A NCAC 13B .0837(a) No person shall establish or allow to be established upon any real property owned, operated,
leased, or controlled by that person, a septage detention or treatment facility, unless a permit has been obtained from the
Division or the facility is operating in accordance with a NPDES permit issued by the NC Division of Water Resources.
Inspected a blue frac tank on site (with hoses connected) that is being used for the transfer and detention of septage.
Observed waste inside this tank. This frac tank is not permitted by the Division as a septage detention or treatment
facility. Instructed the operator by phone at the time of this visit to empty this tank of all waste. This frac tank is not
in compliance as a permitted vehicle as there is no lettering and currently no vehicle available to pull this frac tank on the
road. The Solid Waste Section has not determined that this frac tank can be approved as a permitted vehicle in the future.
The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance
with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an
administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit,
or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to
enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility or a solid waste collection service and any
such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. 15A NCAC 13B .0835(f) Vehicles used in the transportation of septage, that are listed on an approved septage
management firm permit application, may remain loaded or partially loaded on land owned by the septage
management firm for up to seven days without obtaining a permit for a detention or treatment facility.
Permitted vehicles covered under this firm permit and parked at this location on Knox Lane may not be loaded
or partially loaded because this property is not owned by Jeff Kerr/Marlin (this property is leased).
2. During the time of this visit there was a white tanker (with an attached hose) located near the blue frac tank. It
appears that this tanker is listed on the firm application. However this white tanker may not be used for the
detention of septage at this location per Rule .0835(f) noted above – as this property is not owned by Jeff
Kerr/Marlin. Also noted that this tanker did not display any lettering and unsure at this time of a vehicle
available to pull this tanker.
3. There are four additional blue frac tanks located along the back of the lot, but they do not appear to be in use.
These frac tanks shall not be used for septage detention as they are not permitted as a septage detention
facility. Also at this time it has not been determined by the Solid Waste Section that they can be permitted in
the future as firm vehicles for the transportation of septage.
4. General Statute 130A-291.1(h1) The annual permit application shall identify the pumper trucks to be used by
the septage management firm. A permitted septage management firm shall notify the Department within 10
days of placing a pumper truck in service that was not previously included in a permit issued to the firm and
shall make the pumper truck available for inspection by the Department. A septage management firm is not
prohibited from the use of a pumper vehicle that meets the requirements of the rules adopted by the
Commission prior to inspection by the Department.

5. Noted a new pump truck on site which is not in use yet and is not yet lettered. When this vehicle is brought into
compliance with all rule requirements (such as lettering) notify this office within 10 days of placing this
pumper truck in service so that an inspection may be scheduled as per G.S. 130A-291.1(h1) noted above.
