DIVISION OF WATER RESOURCES - CIVIL PENALTY ASSESSMENT
Violator: Town of Conway
Facility Name: Town of Conwav WWTF
Permit Number: WO0001284
County: Northamuton
Case Number: PC-2024-0019
ASSESSMENT FACTORS
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private
property resulting from the violation;
The degree and extent of harm has not been quantified. Without required monthly reporting, the facility is unable to
determine if the amount of effluent and concentration of nutrients (i.e. ammonia) in wastewater can lead to the degradation
of groundwater.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation; Because of the lack of reporting, the duration and gravity of the violation is
undetermined.
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality; Because of the lack of reporting, we cannot
assess the potential impact on groundwater or surface water quality.
4) The cost of rectifying the damage; The cost of rectifying the damage is not documented.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance; It is not believed that any money was saved by these violations. Any
money saved by noncompliance is de minimis.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally; There is no evidence that the violations were committed
willfully or intentionally.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
There have been no penalty assessments issued in the past 12 months to the permittee for violations occurring at Town of
Conway WWTF.
8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures. $122.39

The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed against Town of Conway pursuant to NCGS.

required by G.S. 143-215.1(a).
Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by
the Secretary of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division of Water
Resources, I, Michael Hall, Regional Supervisor, Raleigh Regional Office hereby make the following civil
penalty assessment against Town of Conway:
$500.00 For violation of NCGS 143-215.65 and NPDES Permit 8-2023, for failing to submit the
Discharge Monitoring Report for WQ0001284.
$122.39 Enforcement Costs
$622.39 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to
private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing

Docusign Envelope ID: EA8C8C4D-A2C6-446A-A24F-65245625603A
Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include
waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or
new violation(s). Please submit payment to the attention of:
Water Quality Permitting Section
NC DEQ/Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed
justification for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as
they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission
is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the
factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request
forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of
your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in
dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below. In determining
whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in
writing. The Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his
decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case
status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental
Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that
the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the original remission request considered
by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in
support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil
Penalties, Waiver of Riaht to an Administrative Hearina, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30)
days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and
submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request."
Both forms should be submitted to the following address:

administrative hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You
