Subject: Delegated Municipalities Checklist for Revised Non -Discharge Permit Applications
The Division of Environmental Management's Water Quality Section has revised the
Gravity Sewer Non -Discharge Permit Application Form. The form now incorporates the basic
information that the Division feels is necessary in order for the delegated municipalities to perform a
review on a gravity sewer project for the Division; therefore, the Division will no longer require that
the "Delegated Municipalities Gravity Sewer Design Checklist" be completed and submitted. We do,
however, require that the delegated municipality perform the same type of review as always required
and complete the bottom portion of this page and attach it as the last page of all gravity sewer
applications tha.—„'c being submitted as a delegated municipalities project. If you have any questions
on this matter, please contact Mr. Randy Jones at 919/733-5083.
