Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under Stormwater General Permit
NCG020000 received March 16, 2012, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the
reissued Certificate of Coverage and stormwater General Permit. This permit is reissued pursuant to the
requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between
the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as
subsequently amended.)
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage
• A copy of the stormwater General Permit
• A copy of a Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Five copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form
• Five copies of the Annual Discharge Monitoring Report Form (if applicable)
• Five copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater only, and it specifies your obligations with
respect to stormwater discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review
the new permit to familiarize yourself with all changes in the reissued permit. Significant changes to the
General Permit are outlined in the attached Technical Bulletin.
Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ.
Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely by
direct rainfall and groundwater seepage for this type of mining operation. Any discharge of this
water (and any stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent limitations in this
permit.

Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent wetlands.
The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in Part III,
Section E of your permit. You must have an approved Operation and Monitoring Plan
before mine dewatering discharges occur at your facility. Discharging mine dewatering
wastewater without Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action. An Operation and
Monitoring Plan for your facility must be submitted to the Wilmington Regional Office within
60 days of your receipt of this permit. Contact Linda Willis at the Wilmington Regional Office
at [phone] for more information about the approval process.
This site will discharge to a receiving stream designated as High Quality Waters (HQW) and
a Primary Nursery Area (PNA). As a result, a more stringent TSS limit and a more stringent
volume for wastewater discharges applies.
Additionally, new coastal stormwater management rules (SESSION LAW 2008-211) were
implemented October 1, 2008. Due to these new rules you may be required to apply for an
additional Coastal State Stormwater Permit. Please contact Kelly Johnson in the Wilmington
Regional Office at 910- 796-7345 to determine if you will be required to submit an application
for this additional permit.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by
DENR, nor does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable
federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree.
If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact the DWQ Stormwater Permitting
Unit at 919-807-6300.
Sincerely,
for Charles Wakild, P.E.
