Subject: Waiver of Monthly Reporting Requirement

Dear Ms. James:
The Division has reviewed your request to suspend submission of monthly Discharge Monitoring Reports
(DMRs).
After considering the recommendations of the staff in the Asheville Regional Office, I have agreed to waive
the requirement to submit monthly DMRs for the subject facility, effective July 1, 2012. The DMRs up
through (and including) June 2012 should be submitted as usual.
Be advised that if and when any wastewater discharge occurs, the discharge must be monitored as per the
terms of the NPDES permit and other applicable rules or statutes. Please keep the Asheville Regional
Office apprised of any pertinent developments that arise regarding this facility, especially if the discharge
is re -activated.
While requirements for operator visitation, monitoring and reporting are being waived, the Permittee is
still required to pay the Annual Administering and Compliance Monitoring Fee that is associated with this
and all NPDES permits.
If you have any questions, or if you wish to request rescission of either permit, contact Charles H. Weaver
at 919 807-6391.
ince ely,
J
