Re: Notice of Violation —Town of Fletcher (MS4 Permit# NCS000424)
Dear Mr. Reed:
COUNCIL MEMBERS;
SHEILA FRANKLIN
PRESTON BLAKELY
ROBERT DAVY
EDDIE HENDERSON
This letter is to follow up on NCDEQ's audit of the Town of Fletcher on July 16, 2020, and subsequent
receipt of the official Notice of Violation that we received on July 20, 2020.
This letter is to acknowledge receipt of the Notice and to state the Town's intention to bring the
program into compliance.
I will be communicating with our Town Manager (copied) and with the Fletcher Town Council regarding
this matter, and we should have no problem submitting the required Council resolution (hopefully
following our August 10 Council meeting, but certainly no later than the September 14 meeting should
they require additional discussion).
Additionally, we are poised to immediately commence work with our consulting engineering firm, McGill
Associates, on the drafting of the required Stormwater Master Plan (SWMP).
Should you have additional comments or questions, please contact me at either [phone] OR
email at [e-mail]. Thank you very much for your assistance the other day.
Sincerely,
Eric Rufa, Planning Director
Town of Fletcher
