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, T am requesting our Raleigh 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. ;Jx
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 71,11 `1 r
system and/or malting a discharge to the surface waters without a valid permit. •• - .,
If you have any questions, please contact Tim Donnelly at the Raleigh Regional
