SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Tracking Number: NOV-2020-PC-0279
Unauthorized Bypass
Permit No. NCO060534
County: Transylvania
Dear Mr. Fatland:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Bypass 5-Day Report submitted on February 27, 2019. The
Division's Asheville Regional Office (ARO) concludes that the City of Brevard violated Permit Condition Part
II.C.4.c.1: Bypass from the treatment facility is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement
action against a Permittee for bypass.
Specific incident cited in the violation includes the following:
An approximately 1,000-gallon unauthorized bypass downstream of the Rotating Biological
Contactors on February 22, 2019 to The French Broad River due to heavy rain and the pumping
capacity of a newly installed pump station.
This Notice of Violation (NOV) is being issued for the noted violation of North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-
215.1 and the facility's NPDES Permit. Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct the
above noncompliance and to prevent future noncompliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Tim Heim with the Water Quality Section of the
Asheville Regional Office at [phone] or via email at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
DocuSigned by:
