Representative Outfall Status Request

Dear Mr. Meguiar:
ROY COOPER
Governor
MICHAEL S. REGAN
Secretary
WILLIAM E. VINSON, JR.
Interim Director
The Asheville Regional Office staff have reviewed your request dated March 16, 2018, for a
determination that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) OS5 be granted representative outfall status for
stormwater outfalls OS1, OS2, OS3, OS4. Based on the information and maps provided and a site
inspection on February 20, 2018, we are approving this request. In accordance with 40 CFR
§122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample outfall number OS5 as a representative outfall. This
approval is effective with the next sampling event. We also want to remind you that the permit still
requires Qualitative Monitoring be performed at all SDOs, regardless of representative status.
Please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedances as directed in the
tiered response provisions of your permit must address all drainage areas represented by OS5, where
appropriate.
Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit to document that
representative outfall status has been approved. If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes,
storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval, representative
outfall status may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all SDOs, or reapply to this
office for representative outfall status based on updated information. If you have any questions or
comments concerning this letter, please contact Shawna Riddle or me at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
tanley E. Aiken GA
