POINT SOURCE BRANCH u
Today I received a call from Harry James with James and James
Environmental Services to inform me that an inspection had just
been completed at Henderson's Assisted Living by Mr. Roy Davis.
Mr. Davis at that time indicated the NPDES permit renewal had
not been received, to his knowledge, for Henderson's Assisted
Living. I informed Mr. James that Henderson's and Mountain
View's reports were completed and mailed via US Mail Service on
March 21, 2005.
Since the package was sent with the original and two copies as
requested for each facility I feel Mountain View's has not been
received either. Therefore, Mr. James stated I should FedEx
this package tomorrow morning to your attention. The noted
postmarked deadline was June 3, 2005. The f irst package was
sent regular mail- Mr. James advised me in the future to always
use certified mail or FedEx, this I plan to do.
If there are questions please do not hesitate to call me. I have
copied the copy of my package with two additional copies. I have
resigned the signature page- so you would have an original
signature. I also did a second signature page with only today's
date- I wasn't sure if the other would be acceptable. My number
is 910-848-0694. I am leaving to go to a conference meeting so
if there are further questions please feel free to contact Mr.
James at 828-697-0063, he has a copy of package also.
I am very appreciative of Mr. Roy Davis bringing this to our
attention; otherwise we would have been under the impression the
package was received- thanking Mr. Davis in advance.
Sincerely,
Cathy CWildrey
