Dear Mr. Monsov:
December 11 , 2015
Subject: No Exposure Exclusion NCGNE1102
Orbit Energy Charlotte LLC
600 Johnson Road, Charlotte, NC 28202
Mecklenburg County
The Division has reviewed your November 30, 2015, No Exposure Certification requesting exclusion
from NPDES storm water permitting at the subject facility. Based on your signed certification of no
exposure the Division is granting conditional exclusion from permitting as provided for under 40 CFR
122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your No Exposure Certification, Orbit Energy Charlotte LLC is
obligated to maintain no exposure conditions at this facility. If conditions change such that the facility no
longer qualifies for the no exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit
coverage for any stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an
unpermitted discharge. By copy of this letter I am requesting that our Mooresville Regional Office
schedule an inspection of your site to corroborate your certification of no exposure conditions.
Orbit Energy Charlotte LLC must recertify the no exposure status annually using the included form. Any
"yes'' answer on the form would typically require that you obtain NPDES permit coverage for storm water
· discharge from the facility. Unless specifically requested by the Division, you are not required to submit
the annual self-recertification form, but you must keep each annual completed form on site. Please note
that this conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain
environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Zahid Khan, DEMLR Regional
Engineer in the Mooresville Regional Office at [phone], or me at(919) 807-6376.
Sincerely,
A,;~
