1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

2. Submit a written request for remission 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
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 inust be
accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a
stipulation 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 G.S. 143B-
282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing enviromnental 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 Quality will
review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your

remission request. The 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 (Committee). Please be advised that the Con:imittee 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.

Town of McAdenville
Gaston County
Dear Mr. McCombs:
A review has been conducted of the Town of McAdenville's self reported Sanitary Sewer
Overflows (SSOs) 5-Day Report(s) for May 2011. This review has shown McAdenville to be in
violation of the requirements found in Collection System Permit WQCSD0038 and/or
G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1). The violations that occurred during May 2011 are summarized in
Attachment A.
Remedial and corrective actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to prevent
further SSOs. As of December 1, 2007, any reportable SSO may be issued a Notice of Violation
(NOV) and some may be assessed a civil penalty. Civil penalties will be issued for SSOs based
on volume, volume reaching surface waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish
kills, and recreational area closures. Other factors considered in determining the amount of the
civil penalty are the violator's history of spills, the cost of rectifying the damage, whether the
spill was intentional, and whether money was saved by non-compliance.

Be advised that G.S. 143-215.6A provides for a civil penalty assessment of not more than
twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), or twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) per day when the
violation is of a continuing nature, against any person who is required but fails to apply for or to
secure a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1. Penalties may also be assessed for any damage to the
surface waters of the State that may result from the unpeinntted discharge.
The SSOs noted in Attachment A under violation action as "Proceed to Enforcement" are
the overflows that the regional office has determined, after review of the CS-SSO 5-day report,
that may result in a civil penalty assessment. You have 20 days from receiving this Notice of
Violation letter to provide any additional justification for the identified SSOs as to why
these spills do not meet the criteria listed in this letter for civil penalty assessment.
If you have any questions regarding this policy please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Lon
Snider or myself at 704-663-1699.

Dear Collection System Permittee:
Coleen H. Sullins, Director
Division of Water Quality
This letter is to inform you of the Division of Water Quality's new policy concerning sewer collection
issues. In the attached Press Release you will note the use of the word "will" in regards to issuing
Notices of Violation (NOVs) for Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs). The intent of that statement was to
make sanitary sewer system owners and operators aware that each SSO will be evaluated on a case -by -
case basis to determine if a NOV. is warranted. The statement was not intended to indicate that in all
cases an NOV will be issued without a review of case specific factors.
You may have also noted a second statement using the word "will" regarding the issuance of civil
penalties. Civil penalties are only issued based on case -specific factors that include, but are not limited
to the following: volume, volume reaching surface waters, duration, gravity, impacts to public health,
fish kills or recreational area closures. Again, the statement is not intended to indicate that in all cases a
civil penalty assessment will be issued without review of case specific factors.
In addition, the Division is requiring a Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension Permit
Applications Form (FTSE-10/07). A revised form is enclosed. Effective January 15, 2008, this form
must be completed by the owner of the receiving WWTP and submitted with all applications for sewer
line extensions. Additional forms may be required if entities other than the owner of the WWTP own
pump stations along the route of the proposed wastewater flow. These entities would certify and submit
the additional forms. Applications received after the implementation date that fail to include this
information will be returned immediately as incomplete.
Section I, (d) of the FTSE-10/07 requires an estimate of the obligated flow not yet tributary to the
WWTP. Reviewing flow allocations made over the last two. years, WWTP owners must reconcile their
flow records, to the best of their ability, so it is known how much flow has been obligated, but not yet
made tributary to the WWTP. Submit FTSE-10/07 to the Mooresville Regional Office with Section I,
(a) — (e) completed by January 15, 2008. Please note that items (a) — (h) in Section I, will be completed
for future sewer extension applications.

Please note that Section II will also be completed for each future sewer extension application. In most
cases, the owner of the WWTP will be the owner of the pump stations and only one form will be
required. In situations where the owner of the WWTP does not own all of the pump stations, additional
forms must be completed.

holidays) by telephone within 24 hours of first knowledge of the bypass. A
wastewater bypass in any amount which reaches surface waters or a bypass to
the land greater than 1,000 gallons must be reported.
s...u'' 2.
Sampling of the impacted stream(s) consisting of dissolved oxygen, pH, and
conductivity must be conducted upstream, at the point of entry to the
stream, and downstream of the bypass when the spill reaches surface waters.
