Re: Ceased Operation as a Septage Management Firm
1sr Choice Septic NCS-01083
Dear Erin & Jonathon Watts,
The NC Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Section, received written confirmation from you
indicating that effective March 1, 2023 1st Choice Septic ceased operations as a septage
management firm. As of this date, your records have been removed from our active list of septage
management firms.
If at anytime you wish to continue operation as a Septage Management Firm, you will need to apply
for a new permit in accordance with the septage management rules prior to starting to operate.
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). No septage management firm shall commence or continue operation
that does not have a permit issued by the Department. The permit shall be issued only when the septage
management firm satisfies all the requirements of the rules adopted by the Commission. 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 in this matter, please feel free to contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Connie S. Wylie
Environmental Specialist II
