Dear Mayor Lewis:
The Division is concerned about missing monthly Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) for the subject
facility. Our records show that you have not submitted a DMR for December 2017 [see table below]. Our files
reflect the following record -
DMR Due Received Date Days Late

Failure to submit a timely DMR can subject you to civil penalty assessments not to exceed $25,000 per
violation. In accord with the NPDES Program, DMRs are due no later than the last day of the month following
the month of reporting, i.e., a June DMR is due no later than July 31 [Part H, Condition D (2), 15A NCAC
213.506 (a)] If you have documents proving that this record is in error, please forward them to us. Otherwise,
please submit by March 3, 2018, all DMRs listed in the table above as "Not Received "
Please also note that the Town of Macclesfield now enters a probationary period wherein a repeat violation for
late reporting within the coming calendar year March 2018 — February 2019, may prompt this office to
assess civil penalties.
If you have questions, please email the Compliance and Expedited Permitting Unit, attention Breanna Young
[bnanna [e-mail]], or call her direct line [phone].
Resp ctfully, y
