Since your last renewal however,DWR has issued General Permit NCG590000(NCG59) specifically to accommodate WTP greensand-type and conventional-type potable water-treatment systems,intending thereby to expedite future permit monitoring and renewal. Your application and reported data to date suggest that the subject WTP qualifies for coverage under General Permit NCG59.Under this permit's Certificate of Coverage(COC),your permit fee would reduce from$860 to$100 annually, and COC monitoring would generally be less stringent and specific to your processes. Please review the attached details of General Permit NCG59, and decide whether you prefer to rescind or renew NC0086690.Under the COC,the subject facility would comply with pages 5 and 6 of 26, Section B.(3.)Conventional WTP Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements—Discharging to Freshwater. To rescind your individual permit and switch to NCG59 Certificate of Coverage,AQUA must make written request to DWR. Like your current permit,NCG59 expires every five years.However,DWR renews it automatically without needing your input. To renew,you simply submit a short-form and fee and DWR sends you a renewed COC. To request the Division to proceed with switching from individual to general permit coverage,AQUA should respond in writing with something like: AQUA of North Carolina,Inc. (AQUA)has reviewed the Division of Water Resources' General Permit NCG5900000 for greensand-type and conventional-type water treatment plants, and AQUA hereby requests that treated discharge from Stansted Well #2 WTP be covered under this general permit.AQUA understands that upon issuing the General Permit Certificate of Coverage,the Division will rescind individual NPDES Permit NC0086690.
