This letter is in response to the Notice of Violation for Cadmium for the month of November. On 11/4/2019 we
were in violation of our permit for Cadmium. Sample results was 3.0 ug/I. Our permitted limit is 2.1 ug/I. The
violation was found to be the result of mechanical issues with our Polymer feed pump that we use to remove
Cadmium from out process. Had to order replacement parts and tubing. Pump was back online within 2 days of
problem occurring.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Town of Siler City
