Dear David McKeown:

Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Cleveland County Plant
Certificate of Coverage: NCG070140
Cleveland County
On November 15, 2022, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to
rescind your coverage under NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG070000. In accordance with your request
and a site visit from the Mooresville Regional Office, Certificate of Coverage NCG070140 is rescinded
effective immediately. This site is now covered under General Permit NCG200000 for Carolina Metals
Group — Grover Site, COC number NCG200544.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater, or discharging specific types of stormwater to
waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit is against federal and state laws and
could result in fines. If something changes and your facility would again require stormwater or
wastewater discharge permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. We would be happy to
assist you in assuring the proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you would be performing a public service if you inform the
new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage. If you have questions
about this matter, please contact Brittany Cook at [phone], or the Stormwater staff in our
Mooresville Regional Office at [phone].
Sincerely,
for Douglas R. Ansel
