The permit is current and the annual fee has been paid. Streambanks were well vegetated and stable. The facility was actively dredging and discharging at the time of the inspection. A settling basin was being used to treat the wastewater prior to discharge. The effluent pipe appeared functional. Warning signs are reportedly present, but were not observed by inspector due to accessibility. Effluent flow from the discharge pipe must be estimated semi-annually and available for inspector review per the permit. Turbidity samples must be collected semi-annually upstream and downstream of the dredging operation and available for inspector review per the permit.
