Re: Public Hearing Request for SOC for NPDES Permit#0004308
Dear Mr. Denard,
I are contacting you to respectfully request a public hearing on Badin Business Park LLC's(BBP) request
for a Special Order by Consent from the NC Environmental Management Commission (EMC SOC WQ
S19-009) for its facility that discharges groundwater, stormwater and fire protection water into Little
Mountain Creek and Badin Lake. The public has a right to know how the design and construction of an
upgraded stormwater piping system will help BBP attain compliance with the final effluent limitations in
BBP's NPDES Permit NC0004308. It important that the public has an opportunity to comment on the
proposed SOC as it has the potential to impact the water quality in Badin Lake and Little Mountain Creek
for generations to come.
As you are aware, there are more than 40 documented solid waste disposal units in and around BBP
containing hazardous waste this is leaching into the groundwater.As noted in Item 1.a of the proposed
SOC, "Badin Park is unable to consistently comply with the final effluent limits for Total Fluoride and
Total Cyanide as set forth in NPDES permit NC0004308 for Outfall 005." It now appears that simply
diverting this discharge to a "mixing zone," in Badin Lake, where that effluent would be measured,
would solve the problem, or simply put"dilution being the solution to pollution."
As a result of these uncertainties and the potential ongoing impact on the water quality of Little
Mountain Creek and Badin Lake,which is already under a PCB advisory for fish consumption,the NC
Department of Environmental Quality should hold a public hearing on BBP's request for another SOC,
which will further delay meaningful efforts to improve water quality and remove the source of pollution
from this watershed.
