In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of

be required by the Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater

equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the wastewater treatment facilities by

The Permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type and

Permit.

You are reminded that it is mandatory for the project to be constructed in accordance
with the North Carolina Sedimentation Pollution Control Act, and when applicable, the North
Carolina Dam Safety Act. In addition, the specifications must clearly state what the contractor’s
responsibilities shall be in complying with these Acts.

Prior to entering into any contract(s) for construction, the recipient must have obtained all
applicable permits from the State.

The issuance of this ATC does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and
