Dear Mr. Horner:
A letter of request for an Authorization to Construct was received September 12, 1990 by

This Authorization to Construct is issued in accordance with Part III paragraph A of

Management.
In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of
nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be
required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater
treatment or disposal facilities.
The Winston-Salem Regional Office, phone no. 919/761-2351, shall be notified at least
forty-eight (48) hours in advance of operation of the installed facilities so that an in -place

A copy of the approved plans and specifications shall be maintained on file by the Permittee
for the life of the facility.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Authorization to Construct may
subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in
accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6.
The issuance of this Authorization to Construct does not preclude the Permittee from
