Easley, Governor April 17, 2008 Mr. Brad Joyner Town of Forest City P.O. Box 728 Forest City, N.C. 28043-0728 William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary Coleen H. Sullins, Director Subject: Waiver of Monthly Reporting Requirement Forest City WTP NPDES Permit NCO074306 Rutherford County Dear Mr. Joyner: The Division has reviewed your letter of April 10, 2008, which states the subject facility is not producing any wastewater discharge. You indicated that your town wishes to retain the permit in case future discharges are necessary. 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 May 1, 2008. The DMRs up through (and including) April 2008 should be submitted as usual. Be advised that if and when any wastewater discharge resumes, 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, your company 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 this permit, contact Charles H. Weaver, Jr. at 919 733-5083, extension 511. Sincerely, '� st o+-ary` oleen H.

MY fault. I don't understand why submitting a NO FLOW on a DMR is a problem, but if it is the waiver to suspend the monitoring is OK. Is this the same as placing the permit on the inactive list in that they still pay the annual fee and keep the permit just in case a discharge is needed in the future? They need to decide if they want to place the permit on inactive or request recession. Totally their decision. I think they should keep the permit in case a discharge is necessary in the future. Please totally disregard my previous e-mail for NC 0087084. Thanks, R. Edwards Charles Weaver wrote: Roger Edwards wrote: If this is Town of Forest City-Riverstone WWTP-NC 0087084. I suggest they be placed on the inactive list for NPDES facilities, no DMR submittal required. The request I got is for Forest City's WTP (NC0074306). Can I suspend that monitoring? Your second question is a good one for the Town. It depends on if they want to pay the annual fee or go through the permitting process again. I'll have Bob Guerra ask them about NC0087084.
