Please be advised that T A Loving Company takes this NOD very seriously.
The following is documentation of our efforts to address and correct the deficiency on our B-5604 Perquimans County
project (NOD) and to review all DOT projects to confirm compliance with the NPDES requirements.
Upon receipt of the NOD notification, I forwarded the NOD notification to our direct supervisors assigned to this

effort to insure the NPDES forms for this project were in compliance.

his staff and Randy Midgett (This meeting was previously scheduled to discuss the recently awarded DA00333

staff and Randy Midgett that T A Loving Company accepted full responsibility of the NOD and informed them we
would meet on site with Terry Jackson at the conclusion of this meeting and review, not only what happened,
but also the proper documentation requirements of the NPDES forms.
4. On Monday August 20, 2018, I forwarded an email containing attachments for "NPDES Inspection Refresher
