RE: Draft NPDES Permits
I only found 5 NPDES permits attached, and there were no forms attached for my signature. I will try and handle these
with an e-mail so you don't have to send the forms to me.
The system I reviewed are listed below.
Castaways Shores/Bridgeport WWTP - NCO056154

Killians Crossroads WWTP - NCO063355
Diamond Head WWTP - NCO074772
Alexander Island WWTP - NCO075205
We concur with the issuance of these permits provided the facilities are operated and maintained properly, the stated
effluent limits are met prior to discharge, and the discharge does not contravene the designated water quality
standards.

Hi Mr. Setzer,
Here are copies of 6 draft NPDES permits for facilities discharging in the Lake Norman area, along with associated cover
letters and the certifications for your review and signature. I apologize for the large number of files I've attached. We
had some problems with a server here in the Archdale building and I wasn't able to use a scanning function that would
allow me to consolidate some of the documents.
