Mayor Phifer:
On May 2, 2023, the Division issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) against Cleveland
Wastewater Treatment Plant. The NOV was based upon a violation of reporting
requirement by failing to submit a stream monitoring report for the month of February
2023. Subsequent to your receipt of the NOV, Mr. John Ritchie (ORC) of the Cleveland

Pee -Dee River Basin Association (YPDRBA).
Since Mr. Ritchie provided information showing The Town of Cleveland's membership in
the YPDRBA. The Notice of Violation (NOV-2023-MV-0072) for February 2023 DMR for
Cleveland WWTP (NC0049867) is withdrawn and the cited violation record of this
violation will be removed from our files.
