re: NPDES Permit NCO078697

Dear Mrs. Stephens:
This is to request that the discharge permit for the subject facility be renewed. There has
been no change at this facility since the issuance of the last permit.
Enclosed is the completed application form signed by the owner.
The subject wastewater treatment plant has not yet been constructed and the existing
facility continues to discharge wastewater to the existing onsite ground absorption
system. Accordingly, the solids collect to the septic tank which is pumped by an
authorized septic tank pumper when necessary.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please call.
