Remedial actions, if not already implemented, should be taken to correct any noted problems. The Division of
Water Resources may pursue enforcement actions for this and any additional violations. If the violations are of a
continuing nature, not related to operation and/or maintenance problems, and you anticipate remedial
construction activities, then you may wish to consider applying for a Special Order by Consent (SOC).

Please note: NOV-2019-LV-0126 was retracted because the data originally submitted was incorrect and resulted in
a false limit violation.

If you have any questions concerning this matter or to apply for an SOC, please contact Beverly Price of the
Asheville Regional Office at 828-296-4500.
