Charles,
Might want to make a note for this one on any lists you keep. They have yet to remove residuals from the
WWTP. As soon as the region confirms removal, they can have the permit rescinded.
Thanks,
Derek

Mr. Mahoney:
On August 11, 2021 @ 2:06 pm a site inspection was conducted for closure of wastewater treatment unit at Athena
Cedar Park, Permit NC0034711. At time of inspection the subject treatment unit was full of solids that had not been
pumped out for finial inspection. Please be advised that in accordance with your NPDES Permit Part III, Section D,
Facility Closure Requirements, "The Permittee must notify the Division at least 90 days prior to the closure of any
wastewater treatment system covered by this permit. The Division may require specific measures during deactivation of
the system to prevent adverse impacts to waters of the State. This permit cannot be rescinded while any activities
requiring this permit continue at the permitted facility."
It is therefore required that all wastewater, bio-solids, sludge, waste residual, and debris be removed from the
treatment unit and a time re -scheduled for a closure inspection.
Please note that your NPDES Permit cannot be rescinded at this time with the treatment unit containing waste. If you
should have any questions in regard to this closure please contact me.
Thankyou
