Stacy,
When industrial activities have ceased and materials or potential legacy contaminants have been removed, the company
can request rescission of this stormwater permit. Please see the rescission request form on our website and mail a
signed hard copy to our office. Other documentation is not required because the Regional Office will schedule a site
visit to confirm conditions no longer require permit coverage.
Regards,

I messed up below. Q
This was meant to say that the WASTEWATER outfalls would be capped once we stopped all wastewater discharge to
City.

Subject: Rohm and Haas Chemicals LLC - Charlotte Site - NPDES Permit NCS000386
As you may be aware, the Rohm and Haas Chemicals site in Charlotte has ceased manufacturing operations. This site is
covered under NPDES Permit NCS000386. At this time, decommissioning activities are continuing. Plans are to sell the
site or demolish the site if a buyer is not found. There are no plans at this time to pursue a transfer of the existing
permit. Of course, NC DEQ would be notified per permit conditions should this situation change.
Of course, permit compliance is being maintained during decommission activities. The question is what activities and
documentation are necessary to request final closure of the permit? At this time, there are plans to cap the stormwater
outfall(s) when appropriate based on site activities.
Any input you can provide on the path forward is much appreciated. If it is easier to talk, please don't hesitate to give
me a call a the number below.
Thanks!
