Dear Ms. Woodard:
The Division has reviewed your application for a No Exposure Certification for Exclusion (NEC) for
the subject facility. Based on the information provided and a site visit conducted on November 21,
2019, the NEC has been approved.
Please note that you are obligated to maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. If condition:
change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a NE, you are obligated to immediately
obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes
subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your NE does not expire. In order to help
assure that your facility stays in compliance with all of the conditions in the Certification, you must
self -recertify your facility at least annually. Please see the attachment for information on self -
recertification.
Your 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 Isaiah Reed at (828) 296-
4500.
Sincerely,
. Danie Smi
