Subject: Pretreatment Review of Industrial User Pretreatment Permit Drop
Program: City of Hickory
Wastewater Treatment Plant:Northeast WWTP
NPDES#: NC0020401, Catawba County
Dear Mr. Bowers:
The Municipal Unit of the Division of Water Resources has reviewed the Industrial User Pretreatment Permit
(IUP) drop request submitted by the City of Hickory for the following Significant Industrial User (SILT). The
Division received the submission on July 26t1i,2024. On August 8'the Division received a request to halt the drop
process,and a request to restart the process on September 5th,2024.
IUP# I SIU NAME
0008 1 Hickory Dyeing&Winding(Alba Hickory Yarns)
The review indicates the IUP has been dropped from the City of Hickory's Pretreatment Program and the
documentation meets the minimum requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0916 and 40 CFR 403.8(f)(1)(iii). The
allocation table,maintained in the Division's database,has been updated accordingly.
Within 180 days of the effective date of any reissued or modified NPDES permit the permittee would be required
to submit to the Division a written technical evaluation of the need to revise local limits (i.e., an updated IWS,or
documentation of why one is not needed). This action may include revising, updating, or adding to the list of
Significant Industrial Users(SIUs).Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0907(b)either the Division or the permittee may
initiate pretreatment program revisions.
Federal and State pretreatment regulations require the local delegated pretreatment program to effectively control
and document the discharge of wastewater from Significant/Categorical Industrial Users to the POTW. It is the
POTW's responsibility to ensure that these objectives are consistently met.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Octavio Henriquez at (919) 707-3662 [email:
