Return #1328
Onslow County
We received your application for an NPDES discharge permit on October 6, 2020.On February 9,
2022, Brian Lambe with the Wilmington Regional Office conducted a site visit to determine the
eligibility of this facility for coverage under Stormwater General Permit NCG140000.
The inspection notes that the concrete plant has been discharging untreated wastewater and
stormwater from a consistent overflow of the recycle systems. Additional wastewater has been
discharging from the stockpile wet piles, with both discharges ending in the master stormwater
pond. These wastewater discharges to the stormwater pond are not allowed and are in conflict with
State Stormwater Permit SW8121203 in place for that stormwater treatment device. A previous
inspection conducted September 25, 2019 ended with a recommendation to establish a pre-
treatment system. The application submitted is not representative of the ongoing activities at this
facility and does not include any pre-treatment to address concerns raised by the inspection. An
updated application must be submitted for coverage under NCG140000 in order to authorize
stormwater and wastewater discharges associated with industrial activities at this facility.
With this letter, your application is being returned to you. Please be advised that if the State
determines that discharges from this site contribute to a water quality standard violation or are a
significant contributor of pollutants to waters of the U.S., the Department of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) is authorized to require a discharge permit.
The return of this application does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which
may be required by the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources, or permits required by the
Division of Water Resources, Coastal Area Management Act, or any other federal or local
government permit or approval that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Brittany Carson at (919) 707-3648
or by email at brittany.carson(@ncdenr.gov.
