Autumn Forest WWTP
Guilford County
Dear Mr. Stephens:
Personnel in the NC DENR Winston-Salem Regional Office reviewed the subject permit and discovered a
typographical error on the Effluent Limits and Monitoring Requirements page. This modification corrects that page.
Specifically, footnote 3 now shows that compliance with the 2.0 mg/L quarterly average limit for total phosphorus
will be based on an average of weekly samples.
Please find enclosed the revised effluent page, which should be inserted into your permit. The old page may then
be discarded. All other terms and conditions contained in the original permits remain unchanged and in full effect.
This permit modification is issued under the requirements of North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and the
Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit modification 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 a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North
Carolina General Statutes, filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North
Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
If you have any questions concerning this permit modification, please contact Charles Weaver of the NPDES
Unit at (919) 733-5083, extension 511.

Permit question

Good Morning Charles!
I have a question about the permit for Autumn Forest (NC0022691) in
Guilford County. The permit has a monitoring requirement for total
phosphorus and the measurement frequency is weekly, but there is no
stipulation in the permit that states compliance is based on a
quarterly average of the weekly samples. I just wanted to make sure
this was correct or if that stipulation was accidentally left out of the
permit.
Thank you!
