Dear Permittee:
The facility listed above is covered under NPDES permit NCG510000 for discharge of remediated
groundwater. NCG510000 expires on September 30, 2006. Federal(40 CFR 122.41)and North Carolina(15A
NCAC 2H.0105(e))regulations require that permit renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior
to expiration of the current permit. If you have already mailed your renewal request, you may
disregard this notice.
To satisfy this requirement,the Division must receive your renewal request postmarked no later than
April 3,2006. Failure to request renewal by this date may result in a civil assessment of at least$500.00.
Larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
If any discharge from the remediation system will occur after September 30, 2006, your CoC must be
renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-
215.1;unpermitted discharges of wastewater may be assessed civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If you have halted remediation activity due to lack of trust fund money, but your site ranking from the
Aquifer Protection Section requires future remediation&discharge,your CoC must be renewed.
If all discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this CoC [or if you have other
questions], contact me at the telephone number or e-mail address listed below.
Sincerely,
vN✓V V
