SSOs which occurred as a direct result of severe natural conditions in November, 2018, have been,given special
consideration. The Division has decided against taking enforcement action for some of these SSOs based on
several specific exceptional weather-related conditions surrounding each individual event.
Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct the above noncompliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ron Boone with the Water Quality Section in the
Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9800 or via email at ron.boone(ancdenr.gov.
