104.31 Enforcement Costs
832.31 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.I (b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property
resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not inchecle waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties.
Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing. and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this
notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for
Remission Request."
Both forms should be submitted to the following address:
Wastewater Branch
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Option 3: File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings:

hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You must file the petition with

Mr. Vinson,
SCANNED
aptll_&
Received via email: March 30, 2023
Thank you for allowing the opportunity to respond to this Notice of Violation issued March 14, 2023, and received on
March 20, 2023, for the Total Suspended Solids violations and the Turbidity Daily maximum exceedance that occurred
during the January 2023 monitoring period.
We want to mention that the system was attended and correctly managed for the period corresponding to January 2023, and
regarding to the Violations enlisted in the corresponding document, at the beginning we determined that the cause of the
high readings were result of an incorrect sampling procedure during the Back wash, so even when the facility have
performed in compliance for several months prior these period, the personnel were trained again and supervised to ensure
the correct sample pulling, however after an exhaustive study of the performance of the system, it seems that the facility
has been affected by an external factor that has increased the value of the TSS during the first half of the month.
On January 3, the TSS sample pulled resulted in 158 mg/L resulting in the Daily maximum exceedance and contribute to
the Monthly average exceedance. Is necessary to mention that the second sample pulled on January 19, 2023 was compliant
and with a value of 19.5 mg/L.
Regarding the Turbidity Daily Maximum exceedance violation, it is considered to be result of the external factor that is
disturbing the normal development of the system, this issue is being included as part of the investigation that will help
identify the root of the anomaly in the system.
• We have contacted the Lab and requested the notification of this kind of incidents as soon the sample has been
analyzed in order to pull the sample as soon as possible to monitor and determine if the issues has to be with the
performance of the facility, or if it was an incorrect value.
• An investigation is being performed to determine the possible cause of the increase on the first half of the month.
We appreciate the effort that your office applies to keep track of all the incidents and reports for this system. The Town of
Bailey WWTF has taken these issues into account to prevent future non-compliance events. It is always our goal to remain
in compliance with regulations set forth by the Division of Water Resources. It is our request that our cooperation and action
in these matters be taken into account by the Division when proceeding with enforcement.
