Therefore, in accordance with your request, NPDES General Permit No. NCG060128 rescinded, effective immediately. Please be advised that this permit rescission is based wholly upon your statement that the activities which would require general permit coverage at the site have ceased or been eliminated. Division staff has not visited the site to obtain independent verification. If in the future you wish to again discharge wastewater to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES Permit. Operating a facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the state without a valid NPDES Permit will subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. Enforcement action will be certain for person that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit. If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage. You have questions about this matter, please contact Marcia Lieber at (919) 733-5083, 530 or the Water Quality staff in our Winston-Salem at (336) 771-4600. Sincerely, Alan W.

Types and quantities of industrial wastewater: The discharge consists solely of the condensation water from a refrigeration -dehumidification unit installed in the Preparation -Warehouse building.

The amount of discharge (less than 10 gpd, according to Mr. Byers) generated from this facility is negligible. This is due to the fact that the Company no longer discharges cooling water from its compressor. The heat generated from the compressor is dissipated with the aid of an auxilliary fan. It is recommended that the Permit be renewed.
