On January 28, 2022, MRO staff performed a Compliance Evaluation Inspection for permit
NC0084662 at the Textron facility in Gastonia, N.C. The treatment system is as described in the
permit.
Laboratory analytical data were reviewed for the period of June 2021 through December 2021. The
facility continues to pass Chronic Toxicity testing.
The MRO would appreciate it if we could receive a copy of the 2021 Annual Report for the treatment
system as a part of the review process.

MRO Staff reviewed the O&M records from January 2021 through January 2022. The
records appear to be complete and in order.
The effluent flow meter for the system was calibrated just before MRO staff arrived for
the inspection. The calibration records were observed by MRO staff during the
Compliance Inspection.
The facility outfall has been relocated since the last site visit in 2018 due to erosion at
the old outfall. The new outfall location is within approximately 25 feet of the old outfall.
No foam, solids, color, or odor was observed at the outfall.
