Dear Mr. Scalzo:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on July 31, 2017, we are
forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage (COC) to discharge under the subject state —
NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General
Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the US
Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except upon approval of the
Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources. The Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land
Resources may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by
the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act, or any other
federal or local government permit that may be required.
Please note that the attached permit expires on October 31, 2017. We will be extending the master
general permit for at least an additional year due to permitting backlogs. Your COC will be
automatically renewed with that extension. In the interim you must abide by the terms of the expiring
permit.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Julie Ventaloro at telephone number
