Subject: Waiver of Monthly Reporting Requirement
Wanchese Marine Industrial Park
NPDES Permit NC0041386
Dare County
Dear Mr.Peele:
As stated by 15A NCAC 02B .0506(a)(1)(E),permittees must continue to submit monthly discharge
monitoring reports(DMRs)to the Division,even when there is no discharge from the facility during the
reporting period. The Director may waive this requirement during extended periods of no discharge.
I have reviewed your correspondence stating that the wastewater treatment system at the subject facility is
not yet complete, and may not discharge for some time. You indicated there will be no discharge until the
wastewater system is"completed and certified".
After reviewing your letter and considering the recommendation of the staff of the Washington Regional
Office, I have agreed to waive the requirement to submit monthly DMRs for the subject facility, effective
April 1, 2018. The DMRs up through March 2018 should be submitted as usual.
Please be aware that should any discharge occur,the discharge must be monitored as per the terms of the
NPDES permit. Notify the Washington Regional Office of any pertinent developments that arise regarding
wastewater treatment at this facility, especially if remediation activities resume and the system is
reactivated.
Please also be advised that while requirements for operator visitation, monitoring and reporting are being
waived during the period of no discharge,the permittee is still required to pay the Annual Administering
and Compliance Monitoring Fee that is associated with this and all NPDES permits. Unpaid invoices for the
past two years are enclosed;please pay them as soon as possible.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions,please contact Charles Weaver at
919-807-6391, or via email [[e-mail]].
