Comparison of Approved plans vs. As -Built:
Maintenance Problems:
Compared well.
a. The level of water in the pond after 5 days without rain still indicates that either the orifice
is not functioning, or the outlet ditch watel level is higher than originally estimated. This
will result in the pond never being able to drawdown, and having insufficient storage for
the first 1" of runoff. If the orifice has been regularly cleared out and the accumulated trash
removed, then the problem must be in the outlet ditch.

2. Perform routine maintenance on the pond. Unclog the small diameter orifice. The pond
level after 5 days without rain was approximately 2.0' above the design permanent pool
elevation. A large hole next to the outlet structure has opened up and is possibly allowing
water to escape the pond without treatment. Trash has accumulated on the trash rack and
may be blocking the flow of water over the grate during large storms.
The functioning of the orifice is of utmost importance in meeting water quality standards in this
pond. Per the Jertification, you must maintain the pond according to the agreement.
Failure to provide the "Plan of Action" or to correct the violations by the date designated in the
"Plan of Action", are considered violations of 15A NCAC 2H.1000, and may result in the initiation of
enforcement action which may include recommendations for the assessment of civil and criminal penalties,
pursuant to NCGS 143-215.6A.
By copy of this letter to the Attorney General's Office, I am requesting that they review this case
for possible enforcement action, including the assessment of penalties.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call either Ms. Linda Lewis or Mr. Dave
Adkins at [phone].
