Dear Ms. McKenzie:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) has reviewed your submittal of the No
Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater Permitting. Based on your submittal and
signed certification of no exposure conditions at the above referenced facility as well as observations made
during a site visit conducted by Mike Lawyer, Environmental Program Consultant with the Fayetteville
Regional Office on June 5, 2020, the Division is granting your conditional exclusion from permitting as
provided for under 40 CFR 122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your No Exposure Certification, you are obligated to maintain no
exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for the
No Exposure Certification, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your
stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted
discharge. You must self -re -certify annually that the No Exposure conditions are being met by completing the
Annual Self Re -Certification Form, which can be found at https://deg.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-
land-resources/npdes-no-exposure. The completed form does not need to be submitted, but shall be kept
onsite and made available upon request.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain
environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mike Lawyer at [phone] or
[e-mail].
