Dear Mr. Whitfield,

As you are aware, your NPDES wastewater permit (NC0006254) contains groundwater monitoring
requirements that are reported to our Information Processing Unit in Raleigh. The Asheville Regional
Office is requesting that a separate electronic copy (preferred) or hard copy of the monitoring report be
sent to the regional office for the foreseeable future. The monitoring report should be sent on or before
that last working day of the month following the sampling month.

The monitoring report should include the GW-59 form, GW-59A form, laboratory analytical report, and
any available field data (i.e., temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH, oxidation reduction
potential, water level, and turbidity). The monitoring report can be sent C/O Brett Laverty to
[e-mail] or 2090 U.S. Highway 70 Swannanoa, NC 28778.

I appreciate your assistance on this matter. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. I
can be reached at [phone] or by email.

Sincerely,

Brett Laverty
