Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit

Certificate of Coverage: NCGNE0831
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Nance.
On December 18, 2018, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to
rescind your coverage under NPDES Stormwater Permit NCGNE0831. In accordance with your request,
Certificate of Coverage NCGNE0831 is rescinded effective immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater, or discharging specific types of stormwater to
waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit is against federal and state laws and
could result in fines. If something changes and your facility would again require stormwater or
wastewater discharge permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. We would be happy to
assist you in assuring the proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you would be performing a public service if you inform the
new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Alaina Morman at 919-707-9236, or the
Stormwater staff in our Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9800
Sincerely,
0 A I
for S. Daniel Smith
