Dear Don Nuss:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources(DEMLR)has reviewed your submittal of the No
Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater Permitting form, received on August 22,
2022. The Division is unable to concur with your certification of no exposure.
Based on an inspection of your facility on September 13, 2022, Raleigh Regional Office staff found that
roll-off dumpsters were not covered at the time of inspection. The Division cannot grant your requested
exemption from permit coverage when industrial activities or materials are exposed or have the potential
to be exposed. Please either fix the mentioned issues and reapply or apply for coverage under a General
Permit. Information can be found at deq.nc.gov/SW-industrial.
If you have any questions or need further information,please contact Brittany Cook at(919) 707-
3648 or email at Brittany.cookOncdencgov
Sincerely,
for Doug R.Ansel, Interim Director
Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
