SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Nantahala Village WWTP
Permit No. NC0037737
Swain County

Dear Ms. Morris:

On November 9, 2017, I conducted a Compliance Evaluation Inspection of the Nantahala Village WWTP.
Based on records reviewed, on-site review of system components and interviews with staff, the facility
was determined to be in compliance with permit NC0037737.

The following item was noted during the inspection:

 The ORC should locate the discharge pipe location using a dye trace and mark the location for
future reference.

The assistance of Mr. Mark Bentley (ORC) and Mr. Daniel Dutton during the inspection was greatly
appreciated. If there are questions or additional information is needed regarding system operation,
maintenance, or permit questions, please feel free to contact me at 828 -296-4500.

Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments.
Sincerely,

Tim Heim, P.E.
Environmental Engineer

A. (2.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING - DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and program
reports. The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted and became effective on December
21, 2015.

NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this
permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):

• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports

1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)]
The permittee shall report discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR’s Electronic
Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application.

Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter
monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state’s
eDMR application is compliant with EPA’s Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Regulation
(CROMERR), permittees will be required to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state
electronically using eDMR and will be required to complete the eDMR submission by printing,
signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the computer printed eDMR to the
following address:

NC DEQ / Division of Water Resources / Water Quality Permitting Section
ATTENTION: Central Files
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility
being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband
access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted
and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or
alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the
mailing address above. See “How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting” section below.

Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due on the last day of the month following
the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the
commencement of discharge.

Permit NC0037737
Page 5 of 6

Starting on December 21, 2020, the permittee must electronically report the following compliance
monitoring data and reports, when applicable:

• Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
• Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
• Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.

The permittee may seek an electronic reporting waiver from the Division (see “How to Request a
Waiver from Electronic Reporting” section below).

2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(l)(9), the permittee must identify the initial recipient at the time
of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the EPA’s website resources to identify the
initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES-regulated facilities means the entity
(EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES program) that is the designated entity
for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic reporting tool for
each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions on how to access and use the
appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as well. Information on EPA’s NPDES
Electronic Reporting Rule is found at: http://www2.epa.gov/compliance/final-national-pollutant-
discharge-elimination-system-npdes-electronic-reporting-rule.
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the “Reporting Requirements” section above.
How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To obtain an
electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic reporting waiver request to
the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting waivers must be submitted in writing to
the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the facility would be
required under this permit to begin submitting monitoring data and reports. The duration of a
temporary waiver shall not exceed 5 years and shall thereupon expire. At such time, monitoring data
and reports shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re-applies for and is
granted a new temporary electronic reporting waiver by the Division. Approved electronic reporting
waivers are not transferrable. Only permittees with an approved reporting waiver request may
submit monitoring data and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the approved
reporting waiver request is effective.

Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver are found on
the following web page: http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr

Permit NC0037737
Page 6 of 6

3. Signatory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and Supersedes Section B. (11.) (d)]
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described in Part II,
Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II,
Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be delegated signatory authority for eDMR
reporting purposes.

For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an eDMR user
account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more information on North
Carolina’s eDMR system, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit
the following web page:

http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr

Certification. Any person submitting an electronic DMR using the state’s eDMR system shall make
the following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER STATEMENTS OF CERTIFICATION
WILL BE ACCEPTED:
"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared under my
direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualified personnel
properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or
persons who manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for gathering the information,
the information submitted is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate, and complete. I
am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting false information, including the
possibility of fines and imprisonment for knowing violations."
4. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.)]
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including eDMR
submissions. These records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at least 3 years from the
date of the report. This period may be extended by request of the Director at any time [40 CFR
122.41].

Dear Permittee:

This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in the amount of $372.39 ($250.00 civil penalty +
$122.39 enforcement costs) against Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village.

This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been conducted of the Discharge Monitoring Report
(DMR) submitted by Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village for the month of December 2016. This review has
shown the subject facility to be in violation of the discharge limitations and/or monitoring requirements found in NPDES
WW Permit No. NC0037737. The violations, which occurred in December 2016, are summarized in Attachment A to this
letter.

Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village violated the
terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES WW Permit No. NC0037737 and G.S. 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner and
extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the maximums established by G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty
may be assessed against any person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S.
143-215.1(a).

Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary
of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division of Water Resources, I, G. Landon Davidson,
P.G., Regional Supervisor, Asheville Regional Office hereby make the following civil penalty assessment against Roumelco
Properties DBA Nantahala Village:

$250.00 1 of the 1 violations of 143-215.1(a)(6) and Permit No.NC0037737, by discharging waste water into
the waters of the State in violation of the Permit Monthly Average for NH3-N - Conc.

$250.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY
$122.39 Enforcement Costs
$372.39 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE

Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:

(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:

(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing

Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:

Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:

Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

DocuSign Envelope ID: 1517D818-8E8F-4A0D-9BD6-79F080D2A8E6

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:

Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:

(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.

Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission’s Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.

In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed “Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts” form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed “Justification for
Remission Request.”

Both forms should be submitted to the following address:

Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

DocuSign Envelope ID: 1517D818-8E8F-4A0D-9BD6-79F080D2A8E6

Option 3: File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings:

If you wish to contest any statement in the attached assessment document you must file a petition for an administrative
hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You must file the petition with

Dear Permittee:

This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in the amount of $1,468.68 ($1,350.00 civil penalty
+ $118.68 enforcement costs) against Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village.

This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been conducted of the Discharge Monitoring Report
(DMR) submitted by Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village for the month of May 2017. This review has shown the
subject facility to be in violation of the discharge limitations and/or monitoring requirements found in NPDES WW Permit
No. NC0037737. The violations, which occurred in May 2017, are summarized in Attachment A to this letter.

Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village violated the
terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES WW Permit No. NC0037737 and G.S. 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner and
extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the maximums established by G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty
may be assessed against any person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S.
143-215.1(a).

Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary
of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division of Water Resources, I, G. Landon Davidson,
P.G., Regional Supervisor, Asheville Regional Office hereby make the following civil penalty assessment against Roumelco
Properties DBA Nantahala Village:

State of North Carolina | Environmental Quality | Water Resources
2090 U.S. 70 Highway, Swannanoa, NC 28778
828-296-4500

$600.00 for 3 of the 3 failures to properly monitor CHLORINE in violation of Permit No. NC0037737.

$750.00 for 3 of the 3 failures to properly monitor TEMP-C in violation of Permit No. NC0037737.

$1,350.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY
$118.68 Enforcement Costs
$1,468.68 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE

Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:

(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:

(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing

Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:

Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:

Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:

Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:

(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.

Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission’s Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.

In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed “Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts” form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed “Justification for
Remission Request.”

Both forms should be submitted to the following address:

Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 3: File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings:

If you wish to contest any statement in the attached assessment document you must file a petition for an administrative
hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You must file the petition with
the Office of Administrative Hearings within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. A petition is considered filed
when it is received in the Office of Administrative Hearings during normal office hours. The Office of Administrative

Facility information
NPDES permit #: NC0037737 Swain County
Facility name: Nantahala Village Inc. WWTP -
WWTP class: I STSF (*facility was wrongly classified on
8-17-2001 as: I Physical Chemical)
WWTP type: 0.0078 MGD WWTP with: gray water flow from multiple septic
tanks; three 3000 gallon storage septic tanks; a 2300 gallon dosing
tank with automatic siphon and counter (2300 gallons per dump);
4-inch pvc manifold header; three surface sandfilter beds with nine
2-inch pvc perforated dosing laterals (for initial dose) per bed (1225 sq
ft ea); 4-inch pvc filter collection line; a collection pump tank (with
grating and tarp cover to keep out sun, grass and tree litter); two
submersible 5 HP recirculation pumps; vertical gate valve; below
ground vault with metal hatch housing 3 recirculation valves (SV1, SV2,
SV3), a 4-inch drain valve (SV4) and pvc pipes to the recirculation
laterals and microspray nozzles on %-inch dia. pvc risers (recirculates
2300 gallon batch through microspray nozzles for 4 cycles, spraying
each of the beds separately; recirc. ratio is typically — 70-80%) with
laterals sloped to manifold; tablet chlorinator; chlorine contact
chamber; tablet dechlorinator; and 4-inch pvc effluent discharge line.
Recirculation sequence: The sequence starts when the dosing tank
automatic siphon discharges liquid to the sand filters resulting in a
high level in the recirculation tank, as detected by a float switch (LSH).
Timer #1 starts on a 30 minutes "on" cycle and opens sand filter bed #1
recirculation valve (SV1). At the end of the 30 minute cycle, timer #1
closes SV1 and timer #2 starts a 30 minutes "on" cycle and opens sand
filter bed #2 recirculation valve (SV2). At the end of the 30 minute
cycle, timer #2 closes SV2 and timer #3 starts a 30 minutes "on" cycle
and opens sand filter bed #3 recirculation valve (SV3). The cycles are
repeated until the level in the recirculation tank decreases to the
actuation point of float switch LSL. At that point, the pumps stop and
will not restart until the level increases to float LSH. (McGill Asso. 1996)
Freeze Protection: Only periods where the ambient temperatures are below
40° F, valve PV8 is not energized (opened) to permit spray nozzles to
drain. Otherwise, the valve will remain energized and closed. During
power failure, PV8 will not be energized, and therefore, open.
Collection System: Nantahala Village consists of (5 sewer connections):
Private homes; cottages; condos; pool; recreational hall; day spa;
Granny's (winter) cottage (#34); 3 Historic cottages (#35-37) —
all with conventional septic tanks &z nitrification fields — not on
sewer system;
C6?ev,,s

Lodge, Registration / Administrative Office & Restaurant — with grease
trap and two septic tanks - gray water discharge to sewer system;
4 cabins (#14-17) — with 1 septic tank — gray water discharge to sewer
system;
4 cottages (# 41-44) - with 1 septic tank — gray water discharge to
sewer system; and
6 cabins (#48-53) - with 2 septic tanks — gray water discharge to sewer
system.

Directions: From the ARO, travel 27.3 miles on 1-40 West to Exit 27: Hwy
19 / US Hwy 23 / US Hwy 74 W. Merge onto US Hwy 74 West.
Travel 48.2 miles toward Bryson City. At the Hwy 74 / 23
split, stay left on US Hwy 74 West. The Nantahala Village
will be the first business on the right. Go just beyond that to
the Village Cove Community and turn right onto Village
Pond Road. Follow that gravel road (bearing left) to the
WWTP located in a field on the right.
Note: * ARO has a classification letter, dated 8-17-2001, in the
facility file classifying this facility as a Class I Physical
Chemical facility.
*On June 18, 2009, 1 requested Jerry Rimmer to reclassify
this facility as a Class I STSF (rather than a Class I Physical
Chemical). Wanda Frazier
As of 7-13-2010, BIMS has it listed as Class II WW. The
facility was originally classified on 7-30-82 and modified on
6-27-2007 by Laurie Singleton. There is nothing about this in
the facility file .
The permit has 2/month samples and daily temperature,
indicating a class I facility.
On 7-15-10, 1 sent the facility cover page info and
engineering specs to the TAC Unit, requesting that they
(Jerry Rimmer & James Pugh) check on the classification.
Also, after talking to Don Price, the owner sent in an ORC
change form when the ORC changed and. The ARO does
not have a copy of that form either. Wanda Frazier

NPDES Permit Standard Conditions
Page 1 of 16
PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten.calendar days between sampling events.
3 Week
Samples are -collected three times per week on three separate calendar days.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
B ass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which
is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day - .
The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Quarter
One of the 'following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through .September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of 'aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples, etc) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, •continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour
period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period
with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling
point Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and
totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) 'Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vaty
less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutesapart
during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less .than 100 milliliters. Use of this method
requires prior approval by the Director.
Version 8/1/2006

NPDES Permit Standard Conditions
Page 2 of 16
In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more .than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems
having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at
intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the
system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor
the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean
concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all
grab samples collected during that period (40 CFR 122.2)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" for conventional and other non -toxicant parameters. NOTE: Permittees may not
submit a "daily average" calculation [for determining compliance with permit limits] for toxicants. See the relevant

This letter is in response to the October 23,-2017 Notice of Violation received `by'Nantahala Village
WWTP'. The unexpected high ammonia result of 20.8 mg/L on July 25, 2017 prevented us from •being
able to take subsequent samples to get the monthly average down. Immediatesteps were taken to
correct,this problem after the sample had been run at the laboratory on July 27, 2017. We believe that
a combination of things.led to the high ammonia, including the high volume of occupants at the resort at
that time as well as the high temperatures..
The following steps have since lbeen,'implemented to ensure.that we stay- Within our monthly permit
limitations:
• The grey water tanks, •clarifier andall grease traps were pumped following the July 25 sample.
• A quarterly maintenance schedule of cleaning all grease traps at the resort has been
implemented, as well as periodic monitoring of ammonia levels in the grey water tanks.
• The sand filter is being treated,weekly with sodium bicarbonate to aid in ammonia. removal.
• The Nantahala Village staff has' removed all ammonia cleaners used in routine cle'aning•.of the
resort.
It is the desire of the Nantahala Village ,Staff and myself to work'together to make ensure that no more
violations of this nature occur through preventive maintenance and additional monitoring. Since
implementing the above strategies form ammonia control, these are the results fromsubsequent
testing since the July 25 sample:
• 8/8%17
NH3-N = 4.0 mg/L
8/17/17
NH3-N'= 5.9 mg/L
• 9/5/17
NH3-N = 0.1 mg/L
-• 9/19/17
NH3-N = < 0.1 mg/L
+ 10/3/17
NH3-N = <0.1.mg/L

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions.
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between'sampling events. These samples shall be
representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
3/Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of
the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et.
seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during_ the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is
not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The.period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Week
The period from Sunday through the following Saturday..
Calendar Quarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 mL in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval
between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite
samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period
of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant-volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with
the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow
measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the
preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at
the treatment system, or
Version 1110912011

gPDES Permit Standard Conditions,
Page 2 of 18
(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a
constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may only be
used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following restrictions also apply:
➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters
➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent grab
samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart'during any 24-hour period.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect effluent
grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-hour sampling
period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the
"daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also
"Composite Sample," above.)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the
permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations
prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that
requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).
DWQ or "the Division"
The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
Effluent
Wastewater discharged following all treatment processes from a water pollution control facility or other point source
whether treated or untreated.
EMC
The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
EPA
The United States Environmental Protection Agency
Facility Closure
Cessation of all activities that require coverage under this NPDES permit. Completion of facility closure will allow this
permit to be rescinded.
Geometric Mean
The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of
calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]") shall be considered =1.
Grab Sample
Individual samples of at least 100 mL collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be
collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream
samples).
Version 1110912011

DES Permit Standard Conditions

Hazardous Substance
Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the CWA.
Instantaneous flow measurement
The flow measured during the minimum time required for the flow measuring device or method to produce a result in
that instance. To the extent practical, instantaneous flow measurements coincide with the collection of any grab
samples required for the same sampling period so that together the samples and flow are representative of the discharge
during that sampling period.
Monthly Average (concentration limit)
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal
coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
Quarterly Average (concentration limit)
The arithmetic mean of all samples taken over a calendar quarter.
Severe property damage
Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or
substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a
bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production.

PART IV
SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR MUNICIPAL FACILITIES
Section A. Definitions
In addition to the definitions in Part H of this permit, the following definitions apply to municipal facilities:
Indirect Discharge or Industrial User
Any non -domestic source that discharges wastewater containing pollutants into a POTW regulated under section
307(b), (c) or (d) of the CWA. [40 CFR 403.3 (i) and 0) and 15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(11)]
Interference
Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which
causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the
Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in
compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(14)]
Pass Through
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with
discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of
the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge
permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)]
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization.
This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal
sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T
.0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government
organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges
to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW
treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of
POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)]
"Significant Industrial User" or "SIU"
An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(33)]:
1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary,
noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or
2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted
flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS
and ammonia; or
3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or
4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely
affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent
limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options;
5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and
conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a
Significant Industrial User (SIU); or
6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a
non -significant categorical Industrial User.
Section B. Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs)
Version 1110912011

_ —DES Permit Standard Conditions
Page 15 of 18
All POTWs must provide adequate notice to the Director of the following [40 CFR 122.42(b)]:
1. Any new introduction of pollutants into the POTW from an indirect discharger, regardless of the means of
transport, which would be subject to section 301 or 306 of CWA if it were directly discharging those pollutants;
and
2. Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced by an indirect discharger as
influent to that POTW at the time of issuance of the permit.
3. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality and quantity of effluent
introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact that may result from the change of the quantity or
quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW.
Section C. Municipal Control of Pollutants from Industrial Users.
1. Effluent limitations are listed in Part I of this permit. Other pollutants attributable to inputs from Industrial Users
discharging to the POTW may be present in the Permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information
becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent
limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality
standards.
2. Prohibited Discharges
a. The Permittee shall develop and enforce their Pretreatment Program to implement the prohibition against the
introduction of pollutants or discharges into the waste treatment system or waste collection system which
cause or contribute to Pass Through or Interference as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0900 and 40 CFR 403. [40
CFR 403.5(a)(1)]

wastestreams with a closed cup flashpoint of less than 140 degrees Fahrenheit or 60 degrees Centigrade
using the test methods specified in 40 CFR 261.21;
(2) Pollutants which cause corrosive structural damage to the POTW, but in no case discharges with pH lower
than 5.0, unless the works is specifically designed to accommodate such discharges;
(3) Solid or viscous pollutants in amounts which cause obstruction to the flow in the POTW resulting in
Interference;
(4) Any pollutant, including oxygen demanding pollutants (BOD, etc.) released in a Discharge at a flow rate
and/or pollutant concentration which will cause Interference with the POTW;
(5) Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the POTW resulting in Interference, but in no
case heat in such quantities that the temperature at the POTW Treatment Plant exceeds 40°C (104°F)
unless the Division, upon request of the POTW, approves alternate temperature limits;
(6) Petroleum oil, non -biodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral oil origin in amounts that will cause
Interference or Pass Through;
(7) Pollutants which result in the presence of toxic gases, vapors, or fumes within the POTW in a quantity that
may cause acute worker health and safety problems; or
(8) Any trucked or hauled pollutants, except at discharge points designated by the POTW.
c. The Permittee shall investigate the source of all discharges into the POTW, including slug loads and other
unusual discharges, which have the potential to adversely impact the Permittee's Pretreatment Program and/or
the operation of the POTW.
The Permittee shall report such discharges into the POTW to the Director or the appropriate Regional Office.
Any information shall be provided orally within 24 hours from the time the Permittee became aware of the
circumstances. A written submission shall also be provided within 5 days of the time the Permittee becomes
aware of the circumstances. The written submission shall contain a description of the discharge; the
investigation into possible sources; the period of the discharge, including exact dates and times; if the
discharge has not ceased, the anticipated time it is expected to continue; and steps taken or planned to reduce,

Dear Mr. Harper:
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in the amount of $317.00
($250.00 civil penalty + $67.00 enforcement costs) against Nantahala Mountain Village Inc.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been conducted of the discharge
monitoring report (DMR) submitted by Nantahala Mountain Village Inc. for the month of October
2010. This review has shown the subject facility to be in violation of the discharge limitations
and/or monitoring requirements found in NPDES Permit NC0037737. The violations which
occurred in October 2010 are summarized in Attachment A to this letter.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Nantahala Mountain Village Inc.
violated the terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES Permit NCO037737 and G.S. 143-
215.1(a)(6) in the manner and extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the maximums
established by G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty may be assessed against any person who
violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1(a).
Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority
provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the
Director of the Division of Water Quality, I, Roger C. Edwards, Division of Water Quality
Regional Supervisor for the Asheville Region, hereby make the following civil penalty assessment

$67.00 Enforcement Costs
$317.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into
account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 14313-
282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or
to private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the
attention of:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification
for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s)
occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty
assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative
hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative
hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please
prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In
determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be

considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b)
was wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from
the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission
of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form
within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Quality also requests that
you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should
be submitted to the following address:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
N.
3. File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative
Hearings:
If you wish to contest any statement in the attached assessment document you must file a petition
for an administrative hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative
Hearings. You must file the petition with the Office of Administrative Hearings within thirty (30)
days of receipt of this notice. A petition is considered filed when it is received in the Office of
Administrative Hearings during normal office hours. The Office of Administrative Hearings
accepts filings Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., except for
official state holidays. The petition may be filed by facsimile (fax) or electronic mail by an
attached file (with restrictions) - provided the signed original, one (1) copy and a filing fee (if a
filing fee is required by NCGS § 15013-23.2) is received in the Office of Administrative Hearings
within seven (7) business days following the faxed or electronic transmission. You should contact
the Office of Administrative Hearings with all questions regarding the filing fee and/or the details
of the filing process. The mailing address and telephone and fax numbers for the Office of

Mary Penny Thompson, General Counsel
DENR

Raleigh, NC 27699-1601
Failure to exercise one of the options above within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, as
evidenced by an internal date/time received stamp (not a postmark), will result in this matter being
referred to the Attorney General's Office for collection of the penalty through a civil action.
Please be advised that additional penalties may be assessed for violations that occur after the
review period of this assessment. If you have any questions, please contact Janet Cantwell of
the Water Quality staff of the Asheville Regional Office at 828-296-4500.

County: Swain
Case Number: LV-2011-0089
ASSESSMENT FACTORS
As required by G.S. 143-214.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I considered the factors
set out in G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to
private property resulting from the violation;
All effluent violations may be detrimental to the receiving stream but may not be
immediately quantified.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
One Monthly Average Ammonia Nitrogen exceeded the permit limit by 63.64 %.
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
All effluent violations may be detrimental to the receiving stream but may not be
immediately quantified.
4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
The cost is unknown.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
The amount of money saved would include the cost of more sampling and more
chemicals.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
It does not appear to be either.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which
the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
There has been one civil penalty enforcement in the twelve months prior to this
violation.
8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
$67.00.

FACILITY DESCRIPTION:
m1�11�W1�
The Nantahala Village Inc. VVVVTP is a 0.0078 MGD VVVVTP with: gray water flow from multiple septic
tanks; three 3000 gallon storage septic tanks; a 2300 gallon dosing tank with automatic siphon
and counter (2300 gallons per dump); 4-inch pvc manifold header; three surface sandfilter beds
with nine 2-inch pvc perforated dosing laterals (for initial dose) per bed (1225 sq ft ea);
4-inch pvc filter collection line; a collection pump tank (with grating and tarp cover to keep
out sun, grass and tree litter); two submersible 5 HP recirculation pumps; vertical gate valve;
below ground vault with metal hatch housing 3 recirculation valves (SV1, SV2, SV3), a 4-inch
drain valve (SV4) and pvc pipes to the recirculation laterals and microspray nozzles on 1/2-inch
dia. pvc risers (recirculates 2300 gallon batch through microspray nozzles for 4 cycles, _
spraying each of the beds separately; recirc. ratio is typically — 70-80%) with laterals sloped
to manifold; tablet chlorinator; chlorine contact chamber; tablet dechlorinator; and 4-inch pvc
effluent discharge line.
Recirculation sequence: The sequence starts when the dosing tank automatic siphon discharges liquid to
the sand filters resulting in a high level in the recirculation tank, as detected by a float
switch (LSH). Timer #1 starts on a 30 minutes "on" cycle and opens sand filter bed #1
recirculation valve (SV1). At the end of the 30 minute cycle, timer #1 closes SV1 and timer #2
starts a 30 minutes "on" cycle and opens sand filter bed #2 recirculation valve (SV2). At the
end of the 30 minute cycle, timer #2 closes SV2 and timer #3 starts a 30 minutes "on" cycle and
opens sand filter bed #3 recirculation valve (SV3). The cycles are repeated until the level in
the recirculation tank decreases to the actuation point of float switch LSL. At that point, the
pumps stop and will not restart until the level increases to float LSH. (McGill Asso. 1996)
Freeze Protection: Only periods where the ambient temperatures are below 40° F, valve PV8 is not
energized (opened) to permit spray nozzles to drain. Otherwise, the valve will remain energized
and closed. During power failure, PV8 will not be energized, and therefore, open.
Collection System: Nantahala Village consists of 5 sewer connections, as well as, the following:
Private homes; cottages; condos; pool; recreational hall; day spa; Granny's (winter) cottage
(#34); 3 Historic cottages (#35-37) — all with conventional septic tanks & nitrification
fields — not on sewer system;
Lodge, Registration / Administrative Office & Restaurant — with grease trap and two septic tanks
- gray water discharge to sewer system;
4 cabins (#14-17) — with 1 septic tank — gray water discharge to sewer system;
4 cottages (# 41-44) - with 1 septic tank — gray water discharge to sewer system; and
6 cabins (#48-53) - with 2 septic tanks — gray water discharge to sewer system.

Permit: NCO037737
Inspection Date: 07/13/2010
Owner - Facility: Nantahala Village
Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation
PERMIT / INSPECTION / LOG:
A review of the files indicates that the last compliance evaluation inspection was conducted on
6-11-2008 by Janet Cantwell.
The permit expires on 10-31-2012. Please request a permit renewal 6 months prior to expiration.
A renewal notice will be mailed as a reminder.
The daily operator log was present on -site and had good notation of daily field testing data,
temperatures and events.
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE:
The resort's restaurant had recently been inspected by the Swain County Health Department and
triggered a review of the WWTP. The inspectors observed problems at the WWTP and contacted DWQ.
Ms. Linda White, Director of the Swain County Health Department, Mr. Charles Regan and Mr.
Brent Jones, Sanitarians, were onsite during part of the inspection to discuss concerns
regarding the proper operation and maintenance of this system.
Recent rewiring of the electrical circuit board that controls the two recirculation pumps, had
taken place, as a result of those pumps having to be rewound every 1 to 1.5 years.
During this repair, the recirculation flow was distributed to the sand filter beds using a
manual pump, causing some ponding. Grass had overgrown areas of the sand filter beds.
Observations made and photos taken during the DWQ inspection indicated that the following issues
had been corrected.
The rewiring of the electrical circuit board, that controls the recirculation pumps,
restored proper flow distribution and operation of the microspray nozzles.
The surface of the sand filter beds had been thoroughly cleared of vegetation and
scum layer.
The sand had been raked and releveled.
The 2-inch perforated pvc initial dose laterals and low pressure recirculation laterals
had been releveled, straightened and staked.
The septic tanks had been pumped, as requested by the Swain County Health Department.
The owner was reminded of the importance of maintaining the sand in the sand filter bed,
by keeping the flows evenly distributed; keeping the sand free of vegetation, scum
layer, ponding; and periodically raking/releveling the sand.

Permit: NCO037737
Inspection Date: 07/13/2010
EFFLUENT:
Owner - Facility: Nantahala Village
Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation
As a result of pumping the series of septic tanks, there was no flow coming into or leaving the
plant during the time of this inspection.
At the inspector's request, Ms. Elizabeth Wike, of Environmental Inc. (certified laboratory,
field testing and contract operations firm), pulled a grab sample from the dechlorination basin
and performed the following field tests.
Dissolved Oxygen = 5.8 mg/I
pH = 6.8 units
Temperature = 27.1 degrees Celsius
Chlorine = 33 ug/I
The effluent was very clear, as evidenced by seeing through to the bottom of the chlorine
contact chamber. The appearance of the effluent indicated compliance with permit limits.
SUMMARY:
Mr. Chase Harper, Vice -President and Mr. Mike Awtrey, ORC, assisted in the inspection.
Environmental Inc., contract operations firm, is the back-up ORC.
The facility now appears to be operating well.

Hi Jerry,
ARO has a classification letter, dated 8-17-2001, in the facility file classifying this facility as a Class I Physical Chemical
facility.
On June 18, 2009, 1 sent a request to you (TAC Unit) to correct the reclassification of this facility from a Class I Physical
Chemical to a Class I STSF (biological).
BIMS has it listed as Class II WW (see attached). The facility was originally classified on 7-30-82 and modified on 6-27-
2007 by Laurie Singleton. There is nothing about this in the facility file .
The permit has 2/mo samples and daily temperature, indicating a class I facility.
I can't find anything in writing from you regarding my request or reclassification.
Attached is the facility information and specs.
Also, the owner sent in an ORC change form when the ORC changed and after talking to Don Price.
I can't find a copy of that form either.
Would you check on this and let me know what you find out.
If you should have any questions, or need more info, please let me know.
Thanks,
Wanda

This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against the Nantahala Mountain Village WWTP in the amount of
$1100.00 ($1000.00 civil penalty + $100.00 in enforcement costs). This civil penalty assessment is for failing to submit the Nov®
2009 DMR as required by NPDES Permit NCO037737 and G.S. 143-215.65.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: the June 2009 discharge monitoring report (DMR) was not filed with the
Division of Water Quality within the thirty (30) day reporting period in accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements
contained in your NPDES permit. A Notice of Violation (NOV-2009-LR-0049) was sent to'you for failure to submit the June 2009 DMR
no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the reporting period. The certified mail receipt was received and signed for on September
4, 2009.. Within said Notice, you were informed that future reports not received within the required timeframe would result in a
recommendation for assessment of civil penalties.
The July 2009 DMR was not been filed with the .Division of Water Quality within the thirty (30) day reporting period in
accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements contained in your NPDES permit. A enforcement action (LR-2009-0011)
and Civil Assessment penalty in the amount of $600.00 was sent to you for failure to submit the July 2009 DMR no later than the
thirtieth (30th) day following the reporting period. The certified mail receipt was received and signed for on October 9, 2009. Within said
Notice, you were informed that future reports not received within the required timeframe would result in a recommendation for

Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that the Nantahala Mountain Village WWTP violated or failed to act in
accordance with the requirements of NPDES Permit.NCO037737 and G.S. 143-215.65. A civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per

A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and
is not the proper procedure for contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment letter.

by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in
dispute. You must execute and return to this office the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement,
which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the
detriment of the petitioner;

writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your evidence and
inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details

WATER QUALITY SECTION
?' ASHEVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against the Nantahala Mountain Village WWTP in the amount of
$600.00 ($500.00 civil penalty + $100.00 in enforcement costs).
This assessment is based upon the following facts: the June 2009 discharge monitoring report (DMR) was not filed with the
Division of Water Quality within the thirty (30) day reporting period in accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements
contained in your NPDES permit. A Notice of Violation (NOV-2009-LR-0049) was sent to you for failure to submit the June 2009 DMR
no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the reporting period. The certified mail receipt was received and signed for on September
4, 2009. Within said Notice, you were informed that future reports not received within the required timeframe would result in a
recommendation for assessment of civil penalties. The July 2009 DMR has not been filed with the Division of Water Quality within the
thirty (30) day reporting period in accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements contained in your NPDES permit.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that the Nantahala Mountain Village WWTP violated or failed to act in
accordance with the requirements of NPDES Permit NCO037737 and G.S. 143-215.65. A civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per
violation may be assessed against a person who fails to file, submit, or make available any documents, data, or reports required by
G.S. 143-215.65. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a) (9) and G.S. 143-
282.1(b) (8).
Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the Secretary
of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Quality, I hereby make the following
civil penalty assessment against the Nantahala Mountain Village WWTP:
$ $500.00 for failing to submit the July 2009 DMR as required by NPDES Permit NCO037737 and G.S.
143-215.65.
$ $100.00 Investigation Costs

Pursuant to ,G.S. 143-215.6A(c), i ermining the amount of the penalty, I have tal ito account the Findings of Facts and
Conclusions of Law and have considered ea,,, , and every specific factor set out in G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to public health, or to private property resulting from the
violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on the ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental Management
Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (do not
include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new
violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:
Point Source Branch
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
C17N
Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such request.
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and
is not the proper procedure for contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment letter.
Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied
by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in
dispute. You must execute and return to this office the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement,
which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the
detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please submit this information to the attention of:
Point Source Branch
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
Please note that all information presented in support of a request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Quality will review the information during a bimonthly enforcement conference and
inform you of his decision in the matter of the remission request. His response will provide details regarding case
status, directions for payment and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management
Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions. Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider
information that was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director and therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for remission.

Based on a review of the last 12 months of Discharge Monitoring Reports (see the
self -monitoring data summary), it appears that this facility has the capacity to accept
additional flow.
The current permit limit for flow is 8,000 gallons per day. The highest monthly average
flow value during the past 12-months has been approximately 4,000 gallons per day.
If I may be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me directly at 828-296-

The facility needs to have some general maintainance improvements as follows:
1)the block wall around the sand filter needs to be patched and capped/sealed on the top.
2)the distribution lines need to be checked for equal flow distribution and leveled where necessary.
3)at the time of this inspection, it appeared that the sand had not been raked in a while. the filter should be
raked a least weekly to removed debris and algae growth and to keep the surface level to prevent ponding.
The recirculation pumps were working properly. The effluent appeared to be of good quality. Another
inspection will be scheduled in the future in order to collect samples.

Based upon the above facts, I -conclude as a matter of law that Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village violated the

may be assessed against any person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S.

Based upon the above findings of fact,and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary
of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division -of Water Resources, I, G. Landon Davidson,
P.G., Regional Supervisor; Asheville Regional Office hereby make the following civil penalty assessment against Roumelco
Properties DBA Nantahala Village:
State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Water Resources
2090 U.S. 70 Highway, Swannanoa, NC 28778
828-296-4500

$250.00 1 of the 1 violations of 143-215.1(a)(6) and Permit No.N00037737, by discharging wastewater into
the waters of the State in violation of the Permit Monthly Average for NH3-N - Conc.
$250.00 TOTAL CWM PENALTY
$116.62 Enforcement Costs.
$366.62 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment'of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
. = Payh ent::should be -made dir®ctly to the, order of the Department Of.Enviromuental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of.
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
,Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
i

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please -prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted,. and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions..
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty Q 0) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for
Remission Request."

JUSTIFICATION FOR REMISSION REQUEST
Case Number: LV-2017-0104 County: Swain
Assessed Party: Roumeleo Properties DBA Nantahala Village
Permit No.: NC0037737 Amount Assessed: $366.62
Please use this form when requesting remission of this civil penalty. You must also complete the "Request For Remission,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form to request remission of this civil penalty.
You should attach any documents that you believe support your request and are necessary for the Director to consider in
evaluating your request for remission. Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five
factors listed below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting
remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual
statements contained in the civil penalty assessment document. Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 143B-282.1(c), remission of a civil
penalty may be granted only when one or more of the following five factors apply. Please check each factor that you
believe applies to your case and provide a detailed explanation, including copies of supporting documents, as to why the
factor applies (attach additional pages as needed).
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in N.C.G.S. 14313-282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the
detriment of the petitioner (the assessment factors are listed in the civil penalty assessment document);
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation (i.e., explain the
steps that you took to correct the violation and prevent future occurrences);
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident (i. e., explain why the violation was unavoidable or
something you could not prevent or prepare for);
(d) the violator had not been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions (i.e., explain
how payment of the civil penalty will prevent you from performing the activities necessary to achieve
compliance).

Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Roumelco Properties DBA Nantahala Village violated the

Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary
of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division of Water Resources, I, G. Landon Davidson,
P.G., Regional Supervisor, Asheville Regional Office hereby make the following civil penalty assessment against Roumelco
Properties DBA Nantahala Village:

$250.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY
$116.62 Enforcement Costs
$366.62 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of.
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 2:. Suhmit.a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-2 82. 1 (b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request .remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for
Remission Request."
Both forms should be submitted to the following address:
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources

Dear Ms. Cantwell,
Per the Notice of Violation for Nantahala Village WWTP; the monthly average
exceedance of the Nitrogen, Ammonia Total on 06/30/16 & 07/31/16 was due to the
effluent recirculation pumps not being operable and currently the operator has no way to
treat the Nitrogen, Ammonia Total because the pumps remain inoperable. The owner has
been notified of the condition of the pumps.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.

$116.62 Enforcement Costs
$366.62 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of.
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors .listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you '
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for farther appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's. Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties,
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (0) dgys of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for
Remission Request."
