Jeff,
We have received the EPA application forms in our office. As I previously stated, due to the current backlog and staff
shortages, review of this permit renewal is not scheduled until 2024, however this schedule is subject to change. In the
interim, please continue to comply with all conditions and monitoring requirements in your current NPDES stormwater
permit. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,

Good morning Jeff,
I apologize for the delay in responding. Please see below for answers to your questions.
1. Table A Monitoring Parameters —A summary of facility monitoring results was provided with the original
04/01/2022 permit application package submission. October 2017 permit monitoring parameters include all
Table A parameters, except BOD5, total phosphorus, TKN and total nitrogen (as N). Is the facility required to
include monitoring results for Table A listed BODS, total phosphorus, TKN and total nitrogen (as N)? If yes, is a
waiver request acceptable to NCDEQ?
You are only required to provide monitoring data for parameters that were included in your permit. If BOD, TP, TKN, and
TN were not in your permit, then you do not need to provide data on the renewal application for these.
2. Grab and Flow -Weighted Composite Samples — Tables A, B & C require grab and flow -weighted composite
sampling data. All historical facility monitoring has been conducted via grab sampling. Is the facility required to
submit flow -weighted composite sampling results? If yes, is a waiver request acceptable to NCDEQ?
Grab sampling is appropriate. You do not need to submit flow -weighted composite samples unless your permit
specifically required that.
3. Representative Outfall Status — NCDEQ approved representative outfall status to facility Outfall 001 on
09/24/2019 (approval letter attached). Due to substantially identical outfalls, any required Form 2F sampling will
be conducted at Outfall 001 and subsequent analysis results will be submitted for Outfalls 001, 002 and 003.
Thank you for this notification. I will make sure to note this during my review.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,

Brianna —
Good day.
EPA Forms 1 and 2F are under development. Three questions related to Form 2F completion are presented below:
Table A Monitoring Parameters — A summary of facility monitoring results was provided with the original
04/01/2022 permit application package submission. October 2017 permit monitoring parameters include all
Table A parameters, except BOD5, total phosphorus, TKN and total nitrogen (as N). Is the facility required to
include monitoring results for Table A listed BOD5, total phosphorus, TKN and total nitrogen (as N)? If yes, is a
waiver request acceptable to NCDEQ?
Grab and Flow -Weighted Composite Samples — Tables A, B & C require grab and flow -weighted composite
sampling data. All historical facility monitoring has been conducted via grab sampling. Is the facility required to
submit flow -weighted composite sampling results? If yes, is a waiver request acceptable to NCDEQ?
Representative Outfall Status — NCDEQ approved representative outfall status to facility Outfall 001 on
09/24/2019 (approval letter attached). Due to substantially identical outfalls, any required Form 2F sampling will
be conducted at Outfall 001 and subsequent analysis results will be submitted for Outfalls 001, 002 and 003.

Good morning Jeff,
Thank you for providing this information after our call. Did you find these websites previously using an internet search?
The only thing I can think of as to why you saw an old application form and old 180-day language is that somehow an
inactive site (that is now archived/deleted) popped up in the search results. The active website has informed permittees
to use EPA Forms 1 and 2F since September 2021. 1 apologize for the confusion; however, we do require permittees to
now submit EPA Forms 1 and 2F.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thank you,

Good afternoon,
The Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) Stormwater Permitting Program
acknowledges receipt of your renewal application for coverage under NPDES Permit Number NCS000255.
Please note that the incorrect permit application form was submitted. In order to log the application as
received complete, please fill out and mail hard copies of EPA Form 1 and EPA Form 2F to our office.
In the interim, please continue to comply with all conditions and monitoring requirements in your current
NPDES stormwater permit. As long as you have submitted a complete renewal request package and maintain
compliance with those permit conditions, stormwater discharges from this facility are authorized by that permit
until the Division issues a renewal permit or notifies you of an alternative action. Please note that due to the
current backlog and staff shortages, review of this permit renewal is not scheduled until 2024, however this
schedule is subject to change. Please let me know if you have any questions in the interim.
