Dear Dr. Chernikov:
I am writing to notify the Division of Water Resources of NC Department of Environmental Quality that
the sale transaction of the Canton Mill site to TBD Utilities LLC has been delayed. Accordingly, we ask
that NCDEQ does not transfer NPDES permit NC 0000272 at this time but have it remain in the name of
Blue Ridge Paper Products LLC ("Blue Ridge"). Blue Ridge will continue to operate the Waste Water
Treatment Plant ("WWTP") in accordance with permit requirements until the earliest of the completion of
the sales transaction to TBD Utilities LLC or March 2025.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach me at email or telephone number below. Let me end
by saying that I hope you and your family are safe and reasonably well during this very difficult time in
Western North Carolina.
Best regards,
Sandy Cobden
