A review of the Division of Water Resources (DWR) database which tracks the monthly submittal of Discharge
Monitoring Reports (DMRs) revealed that the November 2022 Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) was not filed
with the Division within the thirty (30) calendar days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is
made [per 15A NCAC 02B .0506].
Additionally, this letter provides notice that this office will endorse Notice of Violation hereafter beginning in
December 2022 with the possibility to assess civil penalties if future reports are not received within the
required time frame during the next twelve (12) reporting months. The Division must take these steps
because timely submittal of discharge monitoring reports is essential to the efficient operation of our water quality
programs.
If you should need any assistance or would like to discuss this non-compliance situation, please contact Tricia
Lowery of the Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9691.
Sincerely,
