RE: Renewal of the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association's Memorandum of Agreement
NPDES Permit Notification for Instream Monitoring
NC0043176 Dunn WWTP
Harnett County
Dear Mr. Autry:
For the past ten years, the members of the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association (MCFRBA) have
broadened understanding of the watershed through water quality monitoring. The Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) greatly appreciates the association's continued support of the monitoring and the time and expertise
contributed by its members.
By this letter the DWQ confirms the waiving of instream monitoring requirements within your individual NPDES
permit in exchange for the MCFRBA's monitoring of the watershed as specified within the renewed
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) effective July 1, 2008. The agreement identifies the stations,; parameters,
and frequency of monitoring required of the association in order to maintain the instream monitoring waivers for
your individual permits. Effluent monitoring requirements are not affected. Should your membership in the
association be terminated, you must notify DWQ immediately and the instream monitoring requirements in your
permit will be reinstated.
All other terms and conditions in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. These modifications are
issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency.
If you have any questions regarding this letter or the coalition, please contact Jennie Atkins at [phone] or
at [e-mail].
Sincerely,
v e
