Dear Permittee:
NORTH CAROLINA

December 1, 2022
Subject: NPDES Permit NC0062961
Technical Correction
Tynecastle WWTP
Avery County
The Division recently issued the permit renewal for the subject facility. After the final
permit was signed, an error was noted in the permit. The dissolved oxygen daily minimum limit
was erroneously removed. This modification restores the correct dissolved oxygen limit. The
corrected pages are attached. Remove the erroneous pages from the permit and insert the
replacement pages in their place.
This permit modification is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General
Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). Insert
the attached pages into your permit and discard the old pages.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this
modification are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written
request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of
a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed
with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina
27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
This permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may
require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the
legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by any other Federal, State, or
Local governmental regulation. If you have any questions concerning these changes, please
contact Charles H. Weaver [charles.weaver@ncdenr.gov].
