High-Rate Infiltration System
Carteret County
Dear Mr. Bunger,
In response to your permit renewal request received on June 24, 2024, and subsequent additional
information received on September 30, 2024, we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0002128 dated
October 11, 2024, to Pebble Beach Homeowners’ Association, Inc., for the continued operation of the
subject wastewater treatment and high-rate infiltration facilities.
This permit is effective from the date of issuance through October 31, 2030, shall replace Permit
No. WQ0002128 issued on January 30, 2018, and is subject to the conditions and limitations therein. The
Permittee shall submit a renewal application no later than May 4, 2030.
Please pay attention to the monitoring requirements listed in Attachments A, B, and C for they may
differ from the previous permit issuance. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and
maintaining the required operational information may result in future non-compliance.
The Division has removed the following permit conditions since the last permit issuance dated
January 30, 2018:
➢ Old Conditions I.1 and II.8 – The Division has removed these conditions because the General
Assembly repealed 15A NCAC 02H .0400 effective May 1, 2020.
➢ Old Condition II.3 – The Division has removed this condition because the Permittee has
constructed all proposed groundwater monitoring wells.
➢ Old Condition II.13 – The Division has removed this condition because the Permittee owns all
the infiltration sites.
