Dear Mr. Mason:
A Compliance Evaluation Inspection performed at the Fletcher Quarry on June 16, 2022, by
personnel from this office verified that no industrial activity was taking place at the time of the
inspection. Your recent request to keep the NCG020167 permit, but to discontinue stormwater
monitoring is hereby approved based on the following conditions:
There shall be no industrial activities taking place, no stockpiles of raw materials (to
include chemical additives) stored on the site, or wastewater or stormwater industrial
discharges while the permittee is not monitoring.
No wastewater shall be generated and all wastewater treatment units, if any, shall be
cleaned and stabilized, and inactivated as to render them harmless to the environment
while the site is dormant.
Qualitative and analytical monitoring actions as described in Part III, Sections A, B, C,
D, and E do not have to be conducted — as long as the above conditions and all other
permit conditions and limitations are met, including:
o The annual permit fee must be paid. Failure to pay the annual permit fee will
be considered a violation of the subiect permit.
o The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) shall be kept updated to reflect
the status of the facility. Updates and conditions of the SPPP of note are:
The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually.
Training programs shall be developed, and training provided at least once a
year for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response and cleanup,
preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations that
have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff.
All aspects of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and
updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of
significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the

notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include written
recertification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence
of non-stormwater discharges. (Should non-stormwater discharges be
discovered the permittee shall contact this office as soon as possible but in no
case greater than 24 hours or the next business day).
Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur as part of the
Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a minimum on
a semi-annual schedule.
• This office must be notified in writing and all components of the stormwater
permit requiring updates made at least 30 days prior to commencing any
industrial activity on the site, even if they are temporary.
• A copy of this letter must be maintained with the facility permit and associated
plans and records for the life of the permit.
