This permit shall be effective from April 1, 2017 until March 31, 2022, shall void Permit No. WQ0002052
issued November 28, 2016, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations:
I. SCHEDULES
I . No later than six months prior to the expiration of this permit, the Permittee shall request renewal of
this permit on official Division forms. Upon receipt of the request, the Division will review the
adequacy of the facilities described therein, and if warranted, will renew the permit for such period of

review boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0106. [15A NCAC 02L
.0 106, 02L .0108]
8. The Permittee shall apply for a permit modification to establish a new compliance boundary prior to
