FACT SHEET FOR EXPEDITED PERMIT RENEWALS
This form must be completed by Permit Writers for all expedited permits which do not require
full Fact Sheets. Expedited permits are generally simple 100% domestics (e.g., schools, mobile
home parks, etc) that can be administratively renewed with minor changes, but can include
facilities with more complex issues (Special Conditions, 303(d) listed water, toxicity testing,
instream monitoring, compliance concerns).

• Updated outfall map

Comments from ARO on draft permit (via email 1/19/18 from Mikal Willmer):
• Address should be 505 Racking Cove Rd, Sylva NC
o DWR response: Based on the renewal application, the permittee listed the
address as 505 Raching Cove Road. The billing address in BIMS is also
505 Raching Cove Road. Based on the permit file, it looks like the
address has been switching been Raching Cove Road and Racking Cove
Road in previous permits and permit applications. If ARO is verifying
that the address is Racking Cove Road, and the application is incorrect, I
will update the permit accordingly.
■ ARO response (via email 1/19/18): I believe 505 Racking Cove
Rd is the correct address. It's what is listed on Morningstar
Assisted Living's website and it looks like other inspectors have
made hand-written corrections within the file.
• Should fecal monitoring be weekly instead of 2/month?
o DWR response: Based on the facility classification of WW -2, 15A
NCAC 02B .0508 states that fecal coliform monitoring should be weekly
if effluent limited or water quality limited. In the February 1998 permit
renewal, fecal coliform monitoring was changed from 2/month to weekly
per .0500 regulations. Upon receipt of the draft permit, the permittee
requested in February 1998 (the request was received after the final had
been issued; there appeared to have been a delay in when the permittee
received the draft) that monitoring be reverted to the previous permit
requirements based on their excellent analytical history and the constraints
to hand delivering fecal samples to the lab 60 miles away within a 5 hour
turnaround time. This request was granted by DWR and a modified
permit was issued in June 1998 with the fecal coliform monitoring
frequency changed back to 2/month. I will verify if monitoring should
remain 2/month or if it should be changed to weekly.
o DWR conclusion: Based on the previous monitoring relaxation granted in
1998, and the facility having no fecal violations between January 2013 and
January 2018, fecal monitoring will remain at 2/month.
