Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Forest Hills Mobile Homes WTP
NPDES Permit No. NCO080195.
Mecklenburg County
Enclosed is a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection for the inspection conducted at
the. subject facility on November 1,2016, by Ori Tuvia. Kenneth De'aver's cooperation during the site
visit was much appreciated. Please advise the staff involved with this NPDES Permit by forwarding a
copy of the enclosed report.
Since the previous inspection, the facility had greatly improved and had begun to perform
representative sampling as required by the permit.
However, there was still been no payment received by the Division for the annual .permit fees
for the years of 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, nor payments for Civil Penalty Violations due to late DMR
submission. Attached are invoices for 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 as well as Civil Penalty Assessment
1-11-2015-0005 and LR -2015-0006.
The report should be self-explanatory; however, should you have any questions concerning
this report, please do not hesitate to contact Ori Tuvia at (704) 235-2190, or at
ori.tuvia@ncdenr.eov.
