Mr. Weaver,
I am sending this email regarding.a conversation I had with Mr. Keith Platt about his individual
permit (NCG550190) on Monday January 29, 2007 at approximately 9am. During this conversation
Mr. Platt informed me that he had endured shoulder surgery on the week of January 22, 2007.
Because the surgery was more invasive than previously expected, he has not been able to gather
the necessary information for his permit renewal. He expects to talk with the septic tank
company today (1/31/2007) in an effort to obtain a receipt of his last septic tank pump event (to
submit with the permit renewal) . He has requested some leniency with regards to permit renewal
package submittal.due to his recent incapacitation. Thank you for you time.

Reference phne discussion today, 1/23/06
My permit allows me to install a sand filter system if my present septic tank gives me
problems.
Several years ago I was having problems with my septic tank.
I had my drainfield extended to the maximum amount that was available and had my
septic tank drained on regular basis.
Periodically with heavy rain, I would still have a problem.
However, I increased maintenance in emptying my septic system and it has not, knock on
wood, given me any trouble lately,
I do not have an operating sand filter system, but I intend to maintain my permit to
build one in the future, if necessary,
Where the house is located and the lay of the land, there is no way, that if we were
incorporated into the city of Gastonia, we would receive a sewage system anytime
soon. On top of that add the cost of buying into the system.
I hope that this clarifies our discussion of today and that it fulfills the necessary
requirements of the letter sent to me dated 1/5/2006.
I would appreciate ackowledgement of the receipt of this e-mail.
Thank you and have a good evening.

Dear Permittee:
The Division of Environmental Management has recently evaluated all existing individual permits for potential
coverage under general permits currently issued by the Division. 15A N.C.A.C. 2H.0127 allows the Division to
evaluate groups of permits having similar discharge activities for coverage under general permits and issue coverage
where the Division finds control of the discharges more appropriate in this manner.The Division has determined
that the subject discharge qualifies for such coverage. Therefore,the Division is hereby issuing the subject
Certificate of Coverage under the state-NPDES general permit no. NCG550000 which shall void NPDES Permit
NC0051497. This Certificate of Coverage is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina and the US
Environmental Protection Agency Memorandum of Agreement dated December 6,1983 and as subsequently amended.
If any parts,measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are unacceptable to
you,you have the right to submit an individual permit application,associated processing fee and letter requesting
coverage under an individual permit. Unless such demand is made,this decision shall be final and binding. Please
take notice this Certificate of Coverage is not transferable. Part II, E.4. addresses the requirements to be followed in
case of change of ownership or control of this discharge.
In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the
Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be required by this Division, such as the
construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities. Construction of any
wastewater treatment facilities will require issuance of an Authorization to Construct from this Division.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Certificate of Coverage and respective general permit may
subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C. Please note that the general permit does require
monitoring in accordance with federal law. The monitoring data is not required to be submitted to the Division
unless specifically requested,however, the permittee is required to maintain all records for a period of at least three
(3) years.

Certificate of Coverage No. NCG550190
The issuance of this Certificate of Coverage is an administrative action initiated by the Division of
Environmental Management and therefore,no fees are due at this time. In accordance with current rules,there
are no annual administrative and compliance monitoring fees for coverage under general permits. The only fee
you will be responsible for is a renewal fee at the time of renewal. The current permit expires July 31, 1997.
This coverage will remain valid through the duration of the attached general permit. The Division will be
responsible for the reissuance of the general permit and at such time,you will be notified of the procedures to
follow to continue coverage under the reissued permit. Unless you fail to follow the procedures for continued
coverage,you will continue to be permitted to discharge in accordance with the attached general permit.
The issuance of this Certificate of Coverage does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all
statutes,rules,regulations,or ordinances which may be required by the Division of Environmental Management
or permits required by the Division of Land Resources,the Coastal Area Management Act or any Federal or Local
other governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions or need additional information regarding this matter,please contact either the
Mooresville Regional Office,Water Quality Section at telephone number 704/ 663-1699,or a review engineer in
the NPDES Group in the Central Office at telephone number 919/733-5083.

Dear Mr. Platt:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0051497 was
issued on July 15, 1993 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of
this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and
the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it
is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular
importance is Page 4 .
Page 4 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s) . Your discharge(s) must not
exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed
"Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies,
sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your
discharge (or operation) , you must initiate the required
monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the
reporting forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not
received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail
to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting
form (DEM Form MR-1) , plus instructions for completing the form.
It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, and the
original and one copy be submitted as required.
The remaining Parts of the Permit set forth definitions,
general conditions and special conditions applicable to the
operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s) .
The conditions include special reporting requirements in the event
of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc.
Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater
treatment plant operator if you are operating wastewater treatment
facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment

facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or
discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment
facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of. an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil
penalty of up to $10, 000 per violation plus criminal penalties may
be assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that you
are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit,
you should contact this Office immediately. A Consent Order may be
necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed. Renewal
requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days
prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of
your Permit. This date is set forth on Page 1 of the Permit. Also
note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If you, as the
Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that
the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to
advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read the
Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville if
you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to
providing any assistance.

Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is
the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a
one-month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD) : The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24-hour average flow, averaged monthly.. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of indi-
vidual values.
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth
root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the
number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to
the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the indi-
vidual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean,
values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).

A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1. Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms
and conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant
identified in this permit more frequently than or at a level in
excess of that authorized shall constitute a violation of the
permit. Any anticipated facility expansions, production increases,
or process modifications which will result in new, different, or
increased discharges of pollutants must be reported by submission
of a new NPDES application or, if such changes will not violate the
effluent limitations specified in this permit, by notice to the DEM
of such changes. Following such notice, the permit may be modified
to specify and limit any pollutants not previously limited.
2. Facilities Operation
The permittee shall at all times maintain in good working order and
operate as efficiently as possible all treatment or control facili-
ties or systems installed or used by the permittee to achieve con-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.
3. Adverse Impact
The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any adverse
impact to navigable waters resulting from noncompliance with any
effluent limitations specified in this permit, including such accel-
erated or additional monitoring as necessary to determine the nature
and impact of the noncomplying discharge.
4. Bypassing
Any diversion from or bypass of facilities necessary to maintain com-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit is prohibited,
except (i) where unavoidable to prevent loss of life or severe
property damage, or (ii) where excessive storm drainage or runoff
would damage any facilities necessary for compliance with the
effluent limitations and prohibitions of this permit. The permittee
shall promptly notify the Water Quality Section of DEM in writing of
each such diversion or bypass.
5. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the
course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such material from
entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United
States.
PART I]
6. Power Failures
In order to maintain compliance with the effluent limitations and
prohibitions of this permit, the permittee shall either:
a. Provide an alternative power source sufficient to operate
the wastewater control facilities;
or, if such alternative power source is not in existence,
b. Halt, reduce, or otherwise control production and/or all dis-
charges from wastewater control facilities upon the reduction,
loss, or failure of the primary source of power to said waste-
water control facilities.
B. RESPONSIBILITIES
1. Right of Entry
The permittee shall allow the Director of the Division of Environ-
mental Management, the Regional Administrator, and/or their author-
ized representatives, upon the presentations of credentials:
a. To enter upon the permittee's premises where an effluent
source is located or in which any records are required to
be kept under the terms and conditions of this permit; and
b. At reasonable times to have access to and copy any records
required to be kept under the terms and conditions of this
permit; to inspect any monitoring equipment or monitoring
method required in this permit; and to sample any discharge
of pollutants.
2. Transfer of Ownership or Control
This permit is not transferable. In the event of any change in con-
trol or ownership of facilities from which the authorized discharge
emanates or is contemplated, the permittee shall notify the prospec-
tive owner or controller by letter of the existence of this permit
and of the need to obtain a permit in the name of the prospective
owner. A copy of the letter shall be forwarded to the Division of
Environmental Management.
3. Permit Modification
After notice and opportunity for a hearing pursuant to NCGS 143-215.1
(b) (2) and NCGS 143-215.1(e) respectively, this permit may be modi-
fied, suspended, or revoked in whole or in part during its term for
cause including, but not limited to, the following:
PART II
a. Violation of any terms or conditions of this permit;
b. Obtaining this permit by misrepresentation or failure to
disclose fully all relevant facts; or
c. A change in any condition that requires either a temporary
or permanent reduction or elimination of the authorized
discharge.
4. Civil and Criminal Liability
Except as provided in permit conditions on "Bypassing" (Part II .

Amended.
"DEM" used herein means the Division of Environmental Management of
the Department of Natural Resources and Community Development.
"EMC" used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management
Commission.
Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is
the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a
one-month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD) : The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24-hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of indi-
vidual values.
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth
root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the
number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to
the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the indi-
vidual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean,
values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1) .

PART II
A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1. Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms
and conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant
identified in this permit more frequently than or at a level in
excess of that authorized shall constitute a violation of the
permit. Any anticipated facility expansions, production increases,
or process modifications which will result in new, different, or
increased discharges of pollutants must be reported by submission
of a new NPDES application or, if such changes will not violate the
effluent limitations specified in this permit, by notice to the DEM
of such changes. Following such notice, the permit may be modified
to specify and limit any pollutants not previously limited.
2. Facilities Operation
The permittee shall at all times maintain in good working order and
operate as efficiently as possible all treatment or control facili-
ties or systems installed or used by the permittee to achieve com-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.
3. Adverse Impact
The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any adverse
impact to navigable waters resulting from noncompliance with any
effluent limitations specified in this permit, including such accel-
erated or additional monitoring as necessary to determine the nature
and impact of the noncomplying discharge.
4. Bypassing
Any diversion from or bypass of facilities necessary to maintain com-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit is prohibited,
except (i) where unavoidable to prevent loss of life or severe
property damage, or (ii) where excessive storm drainage or runoff
would damage any facilities necessary for compliance with the
effluent limitations and prohibitions of this permit. The permittee
shall promptly notify the Water Quality Section of DEM in writing of
each such diversion or bypass.
5. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the
course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such material from
entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United
States.
PART II
6. Power Failures

Gaston County, NC
Dear Mr. Platt:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0051497 was
issued on July 1, 1988 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of
this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and
the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so,
it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of
particular importance is Page M3 .
Page M3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s) . Your discharge( s) must not
exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed
"Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies,
sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your xb/
discharge (or operation) , you must initiate the required ur ���
monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the DMR ��►
forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not received
these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to
receive the form, please contact this Office as quickly as ��° Ay
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting • '
form (DEM Form MR-1) , plus instructions for completing the form. V
It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed,
otherwise the forms may be returned to you as incomplete.
Failure to properly complete the forms may also result in an
automatic $300.00 fine.
The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III) set
forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions
applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities
and/or discharge(s) . The conditions include special reporting

requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment
unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for
a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you are
operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in
operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type
of wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or
upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or
approved by this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215. 6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A
civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day per violation plus
criminal penalties may be assessed for such violations.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed.
Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than
180 days prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration
date of your Permit. This date is set forth on Page M-1 or I-i
of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not
transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this
Permit, then you should request that the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to
advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read
the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville
if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward
to providing any assistance.

3. Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one-
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.
M5
Part I
Permit No. NC
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the
Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal
to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva-
lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of
the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1 ).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
(1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
(2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
(3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.
4. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC
regulations published pursuant to N. C. G. S. 143-215.63 et seq, The
Water and Air Quality Reporting Act, and to regulations published pursuant
to Section 304(g) , 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,
As Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136.
5. Recording Results
For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of
this permit, the permittee shall record the following information:
a. The exact place, date, and time of sampling;
b. The dates the analyses were performed; and
c. The person(s) who performed the analyses.

6. Additional Monitoring by Permittee
If the permittee monitors any pollutant at the location(s) designated
herein more frequently than required by this permit, using approved
analytical methods as specified above, the results of such monitoring
shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the values required
in the Monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM No. MR 1 .0, 1 .1 , and 1.4)
Such increased frequency shall also be indicated. The DEM may require
more frequent monitoring or the monitoring of other pollutants not
required in this permit by written notification.
7. Records Retention
All records and information resulting from the monitoring activities
required by this Permit including all records of analyses performed and
calibration and maintenance of instrumentation and recordings from
continuous monitoring instrumentation shall be retained for a minimum of
three (3) years, or longer if requested by the Division of Environmental
Management or the Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency.

A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1 . Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms and
conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant identified
in this permit more frequently than or at a level in excess of that
authorized shall constitute a violation of the permit. Any anticipated
facility expansions, production increases, or process modifications which
will result in new, different, or increased discharges of pollutants must
be reported by submission of a new NPDES application or, if such changes
will not violate the effluent limitations specified in this permit, by
notice to the DEM of such changes. Following such notice, the permit

3. Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one-
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.
M5
Part I
Permit No. NC
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the
Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal
to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva-
lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of
the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1 ).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
(1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
(2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
(3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.

or as a source of water supply for drinking, culinary or food processing
purposes.
PART II - DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED TREATMENT WORKS
The applicant has an existing septic tank system that has failed due to the
proximity of groundwater to the surface. This existing system has been
repaired twice under direction of the Gaston County Health Department.
The applicant proposes to install an overflow at the end of the nitrification
lines. This overflow would direct excess water into a subsurface sand
filter. The sand filter should contain a minimum of 391 sq. ft. based on a
3 bedroom design flow of 450. gpd. Due to the low stream flow the sand
filter should be followed by effluent disinfection prior to discharge.
PART III - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recognized that discharges from single family dwellings may not be
environmentally sound. However, there does not appear to be any alternative
to the existing failure of the septic tank system.
It is recommended that a permit be issued as requested. The MRO staff has
requested a wasteload allocation for this proposed discharge.

QUALITY Gaston County
Dear Mr. Platt:ECTION
A letter of request for an Authorization to Construct Amendment was received
September 16, 1983, by the Division and final plans and specifications for the
subject project have been reviewed and found to be satisfactory. Authorization is
hereby granted for the construction of a 0.00075 MGD wastewater treatment facility
consisting of an existing 1500 gallon capacity septic tank, approximately 1,500
square feet of existing nitrification field, a new 1,000 gallon capacity septic
tank for the apartments, a new distribution box, 660 square feet of new subsurface
filter bed, a chlorine contact chamber with tablet chlorinator, a cascade aerator,
and associated piping, valving, and appurtenances to serve the Keith Platt residence
in Gaston County.
This Authorization to Construct is issued in accordance with Part III paragraph
C of NPDES, Permit No. NC0051497 issued September 30, 1982, shall be subject to
revocation unless ,the wastewater treatment facilities are constructed in accordance
with the conditions and limitations specified in Permit No. NC0051497 and shall
void the Authorization issued January 26, 1983, previously for this facility.
The sludge generated from these treatment facilities must be disposed of in
accordance with G.S. 143-215. 1 and in a manner approvable by the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management.
The Mooresville Regional Office, telephone number 704/663-1699 , shall be
notified at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of backfilling of the installed
subsurface filter system so that an in-place inspection can be made of said system
prior to backfilling. Such notification to the Regional Supervisor shall be made
during the normal office hours from 8:00 A.M. until 5:00 P.M. on Monday through
Friday, excluding State Holidays.

Dear Mr. Platt:
This letter is in follow-up to an inspection performed on
April 6, 1993 by Mr. G. T. Chen of this Office in conjunction
with your request for the subject Permit renewal .
The inspection revealed that your current residence is a
four-bedroom single family dwelling. However, an Authorization
to Construct Amendment issued to you on October 19 , 1983,
indicated that a 0 . 00075 MGD wastewater treatment facility,
inclusive of an existing septic tank/ground absorption system,
would be constructed for the apartments (see highlighted area of
enclosure) . The on-site inspection performed by Mr. Chen did not
reveal any apartments . Therefore, it is necessary for you to
clarify, by writing, whether the proposed facility is to serve
some apartments and/or a single family dwelling, or if the
apartments will be constructed in the future. Your prompt
response is necessary to facilitate the processing of the subject
renewal .

Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NC0051497
GASTON COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 7/01/88 expires on 6/30/93. North Carolina
General Statute (NCGS) 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application for permit renewal
be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration date. As of the date of this
letter, the Division of Environmental Management had not received an application for
renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the
permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be
allowed to expire. A renewal request must be submitted no later than 180 days prior
to the permit's expiration date. Operation of the waste treatment works or
continuation of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of
NCGS 143-215. 1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request renewal at least
180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00;
larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application shall consist of a letter requesting permit renewal along
with the appropriate completed and signed application form (copy attached), submitted
in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code (15
NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a). Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a priority pollutant
analysis in accordance with Part 122.21. A processing fee must be submitted with the
application. In addition to penalties referenced above, a permit renewal request
received after the expiration date will be considered as a new application and will
require the higher application fee.
Attached is a copy of the fee schedule from 15 NCAC 2B.0105(b). The application
processing fee is based on the design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate,
listed in the first five categories of facilities. Presently, no facility is allowed
to submit a fee for the general permits listed in the schedule since the Environmental
Protection Agency has not approved the State of North Carolina's general permit. If
the facility covered by this permit contains some type of treatment works, a narrative
description of the sludge management plan must be submitted with the application for
renewal.
The Environmental Management Commission adopted revised rules on October 1, 1990
(attached), requiring the payment of an annual fee for most permitted facilities. You
will be billed separately for that fee (if applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application, and appropriate
fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as DEHNR.
If there are questions or a need for additional information regarding the permit
renewal procedure, please contact me at telephone number (919) 733-5083.

FROM: Steve W. Tedder
SUBJECT: "Permits That Will Expire in Five to Seven Months"
Please find attached the list "Permits That Will Expire in Five to Seven Months"
containing facilities whose permits expire from five to eight months in the future.
Facilities that fail to renew their permit appear on this list a number of times
(starting at 8 months and continuing to 5 months) before they show up on the "List of
Expiring Permits" (at which time they can become an Renewal Violation (RV) case and are
assessed a penalty for not renewing their permit within 180 days of permit expiration). The
"List of Expiring Permits" (which is faxed to you about mid month - each month) contains
facilities that have moved inside of 150 days of permit expiration.
Please target those facilities that show up on the "Permits That Will Expire in Five
to Seven Months" list with an expiration date of less than 200 days. These facilities are
about 30 days away from showing up on the "List of Expiring Permits" as potential RV
cases. By the time they show up on the "List of Expiring Permits," they are already well
into their 180 day Permit Renewal limit. If a facility has made no effort to apply for
renewal by the 150th day, then they should receive an assessment. Any facility appearing
on either list as having a renewal date of less than 150 days should be treated as a potential
RV case.
Please insure that all modifications are made to the computer tracking system when
you become aware of any address, phone number or facility contact name changes. You
may make the changes yourselves or return the corrected lists to Robert Farmer and he will
make the changes.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and if there is a need for any additional
information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact Robert Farmer.

Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 7/01/88 expires on 6/30/93. North Carolina
General Statute (NCGS) 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application for permit renewal
be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration date. As of the date of this
letter, the Division of Environmental Management had not received an application for
renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the
permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be
allowed to expire. A renewal request must be submitted no later than 180 days prior
to the permit's expiration date. Operation of the waste treatment works or
continuation of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of
NCGS 143-215. 1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request renewal at least
180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00;
larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application shall consist of a letter requesting permit renewal along
with the appropriate completed and signed application form (copy attached), submitted
in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code (15
NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a). Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a priority pollutant
analysis in accordance with Part 122.21. A processing fee must be submitted with the
application. In addition to penalties referenced above, a permit renewal request
received after the expiration date will be considered as a new application and will
require the higher application fee.
Attached is a copy of the fee schedule from 15 NCAC 2B.0105(b). The application
processing fee is based on the design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate,
listed in the first five categories of facilities. Presently, no facility is allowed
to submit a fee for the general permits listed in the schedule since the Environmental
Protection Agency has not approved the State of North Carolina's general permit. If
the facility covered by this permit contains some type of treatment works, a narrative
description of the sludge management plan must be submitted with the application for
renewal.
The Environmental Management Commission adopted revised rules on October 1, 1990
(attached), requiring the payment of an annual fee for most permitted facilities. You
will be billed separately for that fee (if applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application, and appropriate
fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as DEHNR.

renewal procedure, please contact me at telephone number (919) 733-5083.
