Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal

COC Number NCG200422
Union County
Your facility was previously granted coverage under stormwater general permit NCG200000. This letter serves
as your notification that the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has reissued the general permit and that your
facility's coverage will continue under the conditions of the reissued general permit. Please review the new permit
to familiarize yourself with the changes in the reissued permit. This permit is reissued pursuant to the
requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state
of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently
amended.)
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage
• A copy of stormwater General Permit NCG200000
• A copy of a Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Five copies of the regular and annual summary Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Forms
• Five copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater only, and it specifies your obligations with respect to
stormwater discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to
familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit.
The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage are as follows:
• Semi-annual analytical monitoring with benchmarks replaces annual monitoring with cut-off concentrations
• Refinements and clarifications to the SPPP requirements; refer to Part II, Section A
• New analytical monitoring parameters including pH, Cu, Fe, Zn and O&G
• Tiered response requirements for benchmark exceedences based on analytical results, and direction to
notify the DWQ Regional Office in the event of four benchmark exceedances (Fe not included);
benchmarks are not limits
• Semi-annual qualitative monitoring during a representative storm event
• Semi-annual (instead of annual) vehicle maintenance analytical monitoring with benchmarks (if required)
• Requirement to use forms provided by the Division to record qualitative monitoring results
• Requirement to submit an annual monitoring summary to the DWQ Regional Office by March 1 of each
year

Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor
does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local
law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree.

Unit at [phone].
