Dear Permittee:
The Division of Environmental Management has recently evaluated all existing individual permits for potential
coverage under general permits currently issued by the Division. 15A N.C.A.C.2H.0127 allows the Division to
evaluate groups of permits having similar discharge activities for coverage under general permits and issue
coverage where the Division finds control of the discharges more appropriate in this manner.The Division has
determined that the subject discharge qualifies for such coverage. Therefore,—the Division is hereby issuing the
subject Certificate of Coverage under the state-NPDES general permit no.NCG550000 which shall void NPDES
Permit NC0065471. This Certificate of Coverage is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina and the
US Environmental Protection Agency Memorandum of Agreement dated December 6,1983 and as subsequently
amended.
If any parts,measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are unacceptable to
you,you have the right to submit an individual pernut application,associated processing fee and letter requesting
coverage under an individual permit. Unless such demand is made,this decision shall be final and binding. Please

Dear Permittee:
You are receiving this notice because you currently own a property covered under the subject
General Permit for the discharge of domestic wastewater. NOG550000 will expire on July 31,2007.
Federal (40 CFR 122.41) and North Carolina(15A NCAC 2H.0105(e))regulations require
that permit renewal applications be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit.
To satisfy this requirement, the Division must receive a renewal request postmarked no later than
February 1, 2007.
The Certificate of Coverage (CoC) specific to your property was last issued on August 1,2002.
The Division needs information from you to determine if coverage under NCG550000 is still
necessary.
➢ If your property still has a wastewater system like the ones described in the enclosed
Technical Bulletin, you must renew the subject CoC. Complete the enclosed form and
submit it to the address on the form.
➢ If you are not sure what type of system your property has, contact Keith Haynes in the
NC DENR Asheville Regional Office at. That person [or other staff members] can help
you determine if you should renew your CoC.
➢ If you know that your property no longer discharges wastewater, contact me at the
address or phone number listed below to request rescission of the CoC.
➢ This information request does not pertain to the Annual Fee of$50.00 billed
separately by the Division's Budeet Office. No money is required for this
procedure. The Annual Fee is like the fee you annually pay the DMV for the sticker on
your vehicle's license plate. Renewal of your CoC is like the renewal of your Driver's
License tea. every five years].
➢ If you have already mailed a renewal request, you may disregard this notice.

The following information is included with your permit package:

Subject: Certified Operator Requirements
Single Family Treatment Systems
NPDES Permit No.NCG550389
Macon County
Dear Mr.Bames:
During February of this year, public hearings were held on proposed changes to modify the
operator certification rules. The proposed rules included a requirement that single-family
discharge systems would be classified wastewater treatment facilities, which would require
an annual inspection by a certified operator. The intent of the rule was to insure that the
systems are being properly operated and maintained.
During the public comment period, a significant amount of comments, statements and
additional information was submitted. As a result, the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission amended the proposed rules. The rule, as adopted and
effective July 1,. 1993, now requires single-family discharging systems to be classified
only if they are permitted after July 1, 1993 or if upon inspection by the Division of
Environmental Management (DEM) it is found that the system is not being adequately
operated and maintained. Systems can be inspected by DEM during routine compliance
inspections, permit renewals, or complaint investigations. Once a system is classified, it
will be required to have at a minimum, an annual inspection by a certified operator.
It is important to remember that the NPDES permit is part of a Federal program
administered by the State of North Carolina and that violations of the permit are enforceable
by Federal and State laws. Although your system will not be required to have a certified
operator at this time,proper operation and maintenance is needed for the system to function
satisfactorily. In as much as each system must be individually designed and sited, special
maintenance requirements may apply to a specific installation. The attached maintenance
schedule should however be,applicable to most systems. The frequencies suggested are
considered to be The minimum necessary. More frequent attention may be needed for a
specific system and may be required by conditions of the permit.

Page 2 In addition to being required by your permit,proper maintenance of your treatment system
is extremely important to the long term serviceability of your wastewater treatment system.
If proper maintenance is not given to the system, it will fail and will result in major
expenses for repairs.
We would strongly encourage you to take the necessary action to insure that your system is
operating properly. If we can be of any assistance to you or if you have any questions or
comments, please call Dwight Lancaster of our staff at(919)733-0026.

Dear Mr. Barnes:
In regard to our .phone conversations on May 8, 1992 I 'm sending
the renewal applications. . I 've filled out the applications to assist
you. Because your system does not have a chlorination unit, your able
to mark no for number 10 instead of yes as I had briefly explained.
Keep a copy on file for yourself so you can refer back to it when your
next renewal comes due in 1997. Send all three applications and the

Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NCO065471
MACON COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 2/07/91 expires on 9/30/92. North Carolina
General Statute (NCGS) 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application for permit renewal
be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration date. As of the date of this
letter, the Division of Environmental Management had not received an application for
renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the
permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be
allowed to expire. A renewal request must be submitted no later than 180 days prior
to the permit's expiration date. Operation of the waste treatment works or
continuation of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of
NCGS 143-215. 1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request renewal at least
180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil assessment of at least $300.00;
larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application, shall consist of a letter requesting permit renewal along
with the appropriate completed and signed application form (copy attached), submitted
in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code (15
NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a). Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a priority pollutant
analysis in accordance with Part 122.21. A processing fee must be submitted with the
application. In addition to penalties referenced above, a permit renewal request
received after the expiration date will be considered as a new application and will
require the higher application fee.

Attached is a copy of the fee schedule from 15 NCAC 2B.0105(b). The application
processing fee is based on the design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate,
listed in the first five categories of facilities. Presently, no facility is allowed
to submit a fee for the general permits listed in the schedule since the Environmental
Protection Agency has not approved the State of North Carolina's general permit. If
the facility covered by this permit contains some type of treatment works, a narrative
description of the sludge management plan must be submitted with the application for
renewal.
The Environmental Management Commission adopted revised rules on October 1, 1990
(attached), requiring the payment of an annual fee for most permitted facilities. You
will be billed separately for that fee (if applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application, and appropriate
fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as DEHNR.
If there are questions or a need for additional information regarding the permit
renewal procedure, please contact me at telephone number (919) 733-5083.

Dear Mr. Barnes:
A Compliance Evaluation Inspection was conducted September 17,
1991, of the septic tank/subsurface sandfilter trench serving your
residence. Since the facility grounds and the receiving stream
indicated no problems, the wastewater treatment facility appears to be
operating properly, and is, therefore, considered to be in compliance
with its NPDES Permit.
If, in the future, the residence is sold, please inform the new
owners that they will need to apply for a new permit as NPDES Permits
are not transferable.
If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact me

Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NCO065471
MACON COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
Our files indicate that the subject permit issued on 2/13/86 expires on
1/31/91. GS 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application for renewal must be filed 180
days prior to the expiration date. We have not received an application for renewal
from you as of this date.
A renewal application shall consist of a letter requesting renewal along with the
appropriate completed and signed application form, submitted in triplicate, referenced
in Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H .0105(a) .
Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the Code of Federal -
Regulations, Part 122 (40 CPR Part 122), shall submit a priority pollutant analysis
that is performed in accordance with 40 CFR Part 122.21. A processing fee must be
submitted with the application. Please find attached a copy of the 15 NCAC 2B.0105(b)
regulations. The processing fee for your facility is based on the design or permitted
flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the first five categories of facilities. No
facility is allowed to submit a fee for the general permits listed in the fee schedule
at this time since EPA has not approved our general permit. If the facility covered
by this permit contains some type of treatment works, a narrative description of the
sludge management plan that is in effect at the facility must be submitted with the
application for renewal.
The Environmental Management Commission adopted rules on August 1, 1988,
requiring the payment of an annual fee for most permitted facilities (see attached 15
NCAC 2H .0105(b) regulations). You will be billed separately for that fee (if
applicable), after your permit is approved.
Please be advised that this permit must not be allowed to expire. If the renewal
request is not received within 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date as
required by 15 NCAC 2H .0106, you will be assessed an automatic civil penalty. This
civil penalty by North Carolina General Statute may be as much as $10,000 per day. If
a-permit renewal request is not received 180 days before permit expiration, a civil
penalty of at least $300 will be assessed. Larger penalties may be assessed depending

on how late the request is made. In addition, any permit renewal request received
after the permits expiration date will be considered as a new application and will be
required to pay the higher permit application fee.
The letter requesting renewal, along with a completed NPDES Permit application
and appropriate standard fee, should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 27687
Raleigh, North Carolina 27611.-7687
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources (DEHNR) .
