Dear Mr. Deaver:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit.
Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to

subsequently amended).
This final permit includes no changes from the draft permit sent to you on November 9, 2005. Please be
aware of the following changes found in this permit that are not contained in the current permit:
• Monitoring requirements and effluent limits for fecal coliform have been added to the permit. These
limits will become effective on August 1, 2007 (18 months following the effective date of the permit).
• A Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) daily maximum limit has been added; however the limit will
not become effective until August 1, 2007 (18-months following the effective date of the

If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable
to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days
following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to
Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative

Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may

Local governmental permit that may be required.
