Single -Family NPDES Wastewater Treatment System
2754 Lynchburg Rd. Westfield, NC 27409
Stokes County
Dear Mr. Gagliardo:
On March 4, 2020, staff of the North Carolina Division of Water Resources' Winston-Salem
Regional Office (DWR) performed a compliance inspection of the single-family NPDES
wastewater treatment system located at the subject property. This compliance inspection was
conducted by DWR staff person Mr. Justin Henderson. Currently, there was no residence present
on the property, thus no wastewater is being generated. The wastewater treatment system is
considered inactive at this time. This inspection reflects compliance with Permit No. NCG550588.
Please be aware that should a residence be constructed on the subject property in the future, and
the permitted facilities described in the subject permit become active, proper operation and
maintenance as specified in Permit Conditions Part I. C. (effluent monitoring requirements), and
Part I. D. (operation, maintenance, & records) shall be performed.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, you may contact Mr. Justin Henderson or me at
