Re: Notice of Violation and Intent to Assess Civil Penalty

Dear Mr. Vinson:
NC Dept of Environmental Quality
JAN - 5 20
Raleigh Regional Office
Thank you for allowing us until December 30, 2020 to complete additional investigation and provide this
response. We offer the following response to the above -referenced Notice of Violation and Intent to Assess
Civil Penalty, which was issued for a singular failure to monitor for Solids, Total Suspended -Concentration
in September 2020.
A ua's Response:
Waterfall Plantation requires two TSS samples monthly. The first sample was collected on September
8, 2020. Per the Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC) an Aqua employee - the second sample was
taken on September 23, 2020 at 9:4lam. Upon in-depth investigation we determined the ORC did not
deliver the sample to the sample delivery point. ']'he ORC has amended the September 2020 DMR,
and a copy is attached. Aqua continues to review the ORC's conduct and is assessing the extent of its
internal action.
If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone].
