SITE REVIEWS
Inspection of all five plants revealed no discrepancies, concerns, or violations. It appears that Mr. Long and
his backup operator(s) are doing a very good job operating all five plants. The plants are all in good condition and
appear to be operating at peak efficiency. Mr. Long and his backups should be congratulated for doing an outstanding
job.
DOCUMENTATION REVIEWS
Additionally, there were no problems noted with Mr. Long's documentation for all five plants. Mr. Long had
all the required documentation and it meets all requirements.
There were no discrepancies noted in any of the five inspections. Please encourage Mr. Long and Mr.
Hinshaw to keep up the good work in ensuring the plants are properly operated and maintained and consistently
meeting all terms and conditions of the permits. Please note that in accordance with NO General Statute 143-215.6A,
permit violations are subject to civil penalty assessments not to exceed $25,000 per day, per violation.
If you have any questions regarding the inspections or this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr.
Boone or me at 336-776-9800. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
