Pretreatment Review of Industrial User Permits —Additional Information Required;
Town of Rose Hill (NC0037508); Duplin County
Mr. Daniel Smith, Director Division of Water Resources
This letter is provided in response to the above additional information request issued on
September 17, 2020 addressed to Public Utilities Director, Mr. Ivey Knowles. In the future on all
Pretreatment Correspondence, list the Town Administrator as the main addressee, copying other
local officials.
The Town's previous consultant worked on review of the Pretreatment Permit Applications and
drafting of the Industrial User Permits (IUP) in 2019. These permits were initially submitted to
the NCDEQ Pretreatment Unit in 2019. However, the submittal package was not complete and
an additional information request from NCDEQ was issued.
As explained in previous October 8, 2020 letter, the Town has changed consultants and
management during this time. For this reason, miscommunication and non-application of correct
procedures has resulted.
It is believed that these permits were sent to the industries when they were initially signed
in 2019, however documentation of that transmittal could not be located in the files. Mr. Wheeler
also checked with the industries directly and they could not locate documentation showing a
transmittal at that time.
The permits have been transferred to the industries by certified letter as provided in the
August 19, 2020 submittal.

We understand the correct process for renewal and issuance of IUPs as outlined in the
letter and will ensure that this process is fully followed during the next renewal of the permits.
I hope this information adequately addresses the September 17. 2020 request. Please let
us know if further clarification or action is necessary for acceptance of the issued IUPs.
Respectfully,
