Dear Mr. Meadows:
Town Manager
Subject: Notice of Violation and Intent to Assess Stipulated Penalties
Tracking Number: NOV-2024-SP-0012
Special Order by Consent: WQ S22-003
Siler City Collection System
Permit Number: WQCS00056
Chatham County
The subject Special Order by Consent WQ S22-003 (SOC) contains terms and conditions agreed to by the Town of
Siler City (permittee) and the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission that were established to
promote the subject facility's expedited return to consistent compliance with applicable environmental laws, rules
and/or permit conditions. The SOC includes an enforceable compliance schedule and provision for the assessment
of stipulated penalties when SOC terms and conditions are not met.
Section 2 (a) of the SOC requires the permittee to have completed the following scheduled activity by June 30,
2024: Complete Main Interceptor Project. According to the Quarterly SOC Progress Report received from
the permittee on July 30, 2024, the Main Interceptor Project was not completed by the due date of
June 30, 2024, therefore the permittee is in violation of Section 2 (a) of SOC WQ S22-003.
Section 5 (c) of the SOC stipulates the following penalties for failure to complete a scheduled activity by the assigned
due date: $1,000 per day for the first seven (7) calendar days and $2,000 per day thereafter.
If you have information that will prove to the Division of Water Resources (DWR) that any or all the criteria set
forth in Section 2 (a) were met by the due date of June 30, 2024, this information must be submitted in writing to
the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) within ten (10) days after your receipt of this notice. In the absence of evidence
justifying the application of the provisions within the SOC, DWR may proceed with assessment of stipulated
penalties as provided for in Section 5 (c) of the SOC.
