Dear Mr.High:
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 dated June 1, 2018,which states that the subject facility has not
discharged any wastewater since January 19, 2018.You indicated the facility will not discharge again for an
extended period.
After reviewing your letter and considering the recommendation of the staff of the Mooresville Regional
Office, I have agreed to waive the requirement to submit monthly DMRs for the subject facility, effective
May 1,2018. The DMRs up through April 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 Mooresville 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.
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]].
