NPDES Stormwater General Permit NCG020000
Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC
Elliott Sand & Gravel, Certificate of Coverage NCG020178
Harnett County
Dear Mr. Garvey:
On September 9, 2020, a site inspection was conducted for the Elliott Sand & Gravel facility located off NC Highway 217 in
Harnett County, North Carolina. A copy of the Compliance Inspection Report is enclosed for your review. Your time and
assistance provided during the inspection is greatly appreciated. The site visit and file review revealed that the subject
facility is covered by NPDES Stormwater General Permit NCG020000 under Certificate of Coverage NCG020178. Permit
coverage authorizes the discharge of stormwater, mine dewatering wastewater and/or process wastewater from the facility
to receiving waters designated as an unnamed tributary to the Cape Fear River, a Class WS-IV waterbody in the Cape Fear
River Basin.
As a result of the inspection, the facility was found to be compliant with the conditions of the NCG020000 permit. Please
refer to the enclosed Compliance Inspection Report for additional comments and observations made during the inspection.
Please be advised that violations of the NPDES Stormwater General Permit are subject to a civil penalty
assessment of up to $26,000 per day for each violation. If you or your staff have any questions, comments, or needs
assistance with understanding any aspect of your permit, please contact me at (910) 433-3394 or via e-mail at

Sincerely,
