Dear Mr. Thedford,
RECEIVED/NCDEWWR

Water Quality
Permitting Section
I was recently notified, by the company that operates our wastewater treatment plant, that the permit
for Blue Ridge School (NC0066958) was up for renewal. Can you please let me know how to have the
contact information updated to list myself as the Jackson County Public Schools contact? When I
received notification from our management contractor, I checked with everyone in our central office
and no one had seen any renewal paperwork. At the time of the last renewal, a former Assistant
Superintendent that is now deceased signed it. I have enclosed the renewal application and supporting
documents that were provided to me by our management contractor. To my knowledge, the only work
done to the plant has been routine maintenance and there have been no major changes with the
facility. Please accept my request for a renewal of NPDES Permit NC0066958.
Please let me know if any additional information is needed.
Sincerely,
Jason Watson
Director of Operations and Logistics
Jackson County Public Schools
