Re: New Firm — Assignment of Permit Number (NCS#)
HBGB United NCS-01721
Dear Melvin:
We have received an Application for a Permit to Operate a Septage Management Firm and a permit
fee payment in the amount of $550.00. Also, we have record of your attendance at the New
Operator Class on November 1611 2023. However, your Application to Operate a Septage
Management Firm will not be processed until you have submitted at least 1 disposal
authorization and the vehicle(s) has been inspected for compliance with the rules and
approved by the Division. When the Permit to Operate a Septage Management Firm is issued, the
Firm Permit Number will be NCS-01721. Please note that this letter is not a permit.
Requirements for the pumper vehicle(s) can be found within 15A NCAC 13B .0835 of the Septage
Management Rules. As noted within Rule .0835 (b), the firm name, town name, phone number, and
permit number, NCS-01721, must be visible and permanently attached on both sides of the pumper
vehicle. Each letter must be 3 inches or greater in height. When the required lettering has been
completed, please contact Chester Cobb, Environmental Program Consultant in the Raleigh Central
Office at [phone] or email at [e-mail] to request a truck inspection.
This letter shall not be considered as a permit to operate a Septage Management Firm.
Please note that you may not legally operate a septage management firm in North Carolina
without a permit. General Statutes, GS 130A-291.1 (c) states in part "A septage management firm
that commences operation without first having obtained a permit shall cease to operate until the firm
obtains a permit under this section." You are hereby 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 Statute or Regulations. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at [phone].
