It has come to the Division of Water Resources' attention that the subject wastewater irrigation
facility has changed ownership. The Buncombe County Register of Deeds indicates that Mountain and Sea
Getaways Inc. purchased the subject property (Parcel No. 9734-01-2173-00000) from NC Asset MGNT,
LLC on December 18, 2020 (Deed Book: 5995 / Page: 1670).
The wastewater irrigation system associated with this property are covered under an individual
State -issued non -discharge permit (Permit No. WQ0033804). Accordingly, please complete and submit
the attached Non -Discharge Permit Ownership/Name Change application (Form: NDPONC). This form
has been prefilled for your convenience.
Once the application is received, Asheville Regional Office staff will conduct a site visit and
provide an overview of the non -discharge system. Upon completion of the site visit and review of the
application, a new non -discharge permit will be issued for a length of up to eight years. There is a $810
annual fee associated with this permit, which is not due at this time.
Please complete and submit the Change of Ownership application within 30 days of receiving
this notification. Failure to provide this application shall result in a Notice of Deficiency for operating
the subject facilities without a valid permit, which is a violation of G.S. 143-215.1, and may subject
you to a Notice of Violation and appropriate enforcement actions pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A-6C.
