Dear Ms. Stephens, ,
This letter requests renewal of the the permit #0037737 issued to Nantahala
Village. There have been no changes at the facility since our last permit. The facility
produces no solids, and therefor we do not have a sludge management plan.
Please accept my apologies for the late date on this renewal application. In the
crush of seasonal business, I overlooked the early submission date.
