continued operation of the subject wastewater treatment and non -conjunctive reclaimed water utilization
facilities. Please note the Permittee has been changed from the Town of Ocean Isle Beach to Brunswick
County.
On August 5, 2009, Session Law 2009-406, entitled "An Act to Extend Certain Government
Approvals Affecting the Development of Real Property Within the State," was enacted by the General
Assembly and signed into law. The Act, known as the Permit Extension Act of 2009, extends the
expiration date of certain government approvals and permits. In 2010, this Act was extended by an
additional year (S.L. 2010-177). Permit WQ0006085 falls within the scope of this Act and is therefore
being extended until August 31, 2018. Per your permit, a renewal application must still be submitted six
months in advance of the extended expiration date.
This permit skull be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2018, shall void Permit
No. WQ0006085 issued January 6, 2010, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as
specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring requirements listed in Attachments A
and B because they may differ from the previous permit issuance. Failure to establish an adequate system
for collecting and maintaining the required operational information shall result in future compliance
problems.
