Dear Mr. Howard:
This letter is in reference to a Notice of Violation letter dated January 24, 1994,
which you received on February 28, 1994. You were informed in the previous letter that
your permit would be revoked in 60 days if the annual administering and compliance
monitoring fee of $450.00 was not received during than period. The 60 day period has
passed and we have not received your payment. Therefore, your Permit No. WQ0005251
was revoked effective April 28, 1994.
Reissuance of the subject permit will require payment of the past due annual
administering and compliance monitoring fee of $450.00, a permit application processing
fee of $400.00 and execution of the attached reissuance application form. If reissuance is
desired, this information must be received by this Division within 30 days of receiving this
notice.
The material should be mailed to:

If an application is received after the 30 Day period, a standard application form
must be used and the facility will be reviewed as a new proposed facility. Please be
advised that if the facility is reviewed as a new facility, we must incorporate all new
permitting criteria that is currently applicable and in some cases we may not be able to issue
a permit for the facility.
The material should be mailed to:
DEHNR-DEM-WQ-Permits and Engineering Unit

Your earlier request to rescind this permit prompted a January 11, 1994 letter from
Dianne Williams Wilburn requesting information on the current disposal method for
wastewater being generated on site. No response was received to that request.
Please be advised that operation of a wastewater treatment system without a valid
permit will subject the owner to a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day. If you wish to
operate this facility in the future, you must first apply for and receive a permit. By copy of
this letter, I am requesting our Wilmington Regional Office to confirm that operation has .
ceased at this facility. Appropriate enforcement actions will be initiated for facilities found
still to be in operation.
Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility for civil
penalty assessments for past or future violations for operation of a wastewater treatment
system and/or making a discharge to the surface waters with a valid permit.
If you have any questions, please contact Dave Adkins at the Wilmington Regional
Office at 919/395-3900 or me at 919/733-5083, ext, 232.
Sincerely,
Kent Wiggins, Supervisor
