Dear Mr. Allen-
A review of the July 2014 self-monitoring report for the subject facility revealed a violation of the
following parameter at Outfall 001:
Date Parameter Reported Value Permit Limit

Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct any noted problems. The
Division of Water Resources may pursue enforcement actions for this and any additional violations. If
the violations are of a continuing nature, not related to operation and/or maintenance problems, and
you anticipate remedial construction activities, then you may wish to consider applying for a Special
Order by Consent (SOC).
If you have questions concerning this matter or to apply for a SOC, please do not hesitate to contact
Ms. Marcia Allocco or myself at [phone].
Sincerely,
Michael L. Parker, Regional Supervisor
