SUBJECT: Pretreatment Annual Report Review and Notice of Deficiency
Tracking Number NOD-2018-PC-0192
Town of Jefferson
NPDES#NC0021709
Ashe County
Dear Mr. Church,
The Pretreatment staff of the Division of Water Resources at the Winston-Salem Regional Office has
reviewed the Pretreatment Annual Report(PAR) covering January through December 2017. Our review
indicates that the PAR is adequate and satisfies the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .908(b) and the
Comprehensive Guidance for North Carolina Pretreatment Programs.
However, during the initial PAR review it was noted that the Permittee did not correctly identify an
occurrence of Significant Noncompliance. Specifically, a Significant Industrial User was found to be in
Significant Noncompliance for Technical Review Criteria as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0903(34)(D);
however, the Permittee did not take action as specified in their Enforcement Response Plan. Please note
that Part IV, Section D.9 of the Permit requires that enforcement actions "be consistent with the
Enforcement Response Plan(ERP)approved by the Division."This discrepancy has resulted in this Notice
of Deficiency. Corrective actions were taken as noted in the revised PAR dated June 4, 2018. You are
encouraged to contact this office or the PERCS unit if you have questions regarding implementation of the
Pretreatment Program.
Thank you for your continued support of the Pretreatment Program. If you have any questions, please
contact me at [phone] or [e-mail]; or Vivien Zhong at [phone] or
[e-mail].
Sincerely,
Sherri V.Knight,P.E.,Regional Supervisor
