Fashion Printing, Inc.
Cabarrus County
Dear Mr. Simpson:
On August 5, 1-997, the Division of Water Quality received a NPDES Permit Application for the subject facility. As
per your faxed memorandum dated February 6, 2001, you are requesting to have your application be returned and that
the facility is no:longer discharging boiler blowdown water to surface waters of the state. Therefore, the Division of Water
Quality has discontinued the application process without further review or action.
If in the -future, you determine that you need to discharge wastewater, you must first appty for and receive a
Certificate of Coverage under General Permit NCG500000. Discharging without a valid NPDES Permit may subject the
discharger to a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day.
If there is a need for any additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Bradley
Bennett at [phone], ext. 525.
Sincerely,
G�

Page Three
PART IV - EVALUATiON AND RECOMMENDATiONS
The applicant requests issuance of an NPDES Permit to
discharge boiler blowdown from a textile printing operation.
The amount of discharge from this facility is extremely
small (estimated to be 10-15 gallons per month) and rarely
reaches the storm drain, which located at the rear of the
facility: Furthermore, it will be very difficult and expensive to
Pipe this waste stream to the municipal sewer line that serves
this facility. Company personnel have indicated, however, that it
is possible to collect this water in some type of container and
transport it to the municipal sewer connection on their property.
Such being the case, it is recommended that upon receipt of
documentation from the company that all wastewater generated by
the boiler blowdown will be discharged into the municipal sewer,
the Division will terminate any further action on the NPDES
Permit application and advise the company that a Permit will not
be necessary.
