Subject: NCG210432 IFCO Systems, N.A. NOI Charlotte
Zahid Khan, Mooresville Regional Office:
Please review the attached NOI application with the objective of responding to me with a recommendation to issue the
permit. I recognize that you may not visit each new permittee during this NOI review, but it affords you the opportunity
to log the permit into your regional database and add the facility to a future monitoring and compliance visit
schedule. Therefore, your recommendation now to issue the permit serves as your acknowledgement that (1) the
facility is located in your region, (2) that there are no current complaints outstanding about the facility that have not
been dealt with, and (3) that the facility may ultimately be inspected by the regional staff. I've also attached a scanned
copy of the NOI and a location map for your review.
COC # Facility Location 11 City/County
NCG210432 IFCO Systems, N.A. 5808 Long Creek Park Drive Charlotte/Mecklenburg
If you need any more info, give me a call. If you could send me a recommendation to issue the permit by 07/24/2014,
I'd appreciate it, so I can issue their COC. I cannot issue the permit until the respective regional office reviews and
comments back to me with a recommendation to issue the permit.
Thanks.
