Subject: Pretreatment Review of Industrial Waste Survey
Program: City of Whiteville (NPDES Permit No: NC0021920)
Columbus County
Dear Mr. Rich:
The Pretreatment, Emergency Response, and Collection Systems (PERCS) Unit of the Division of Water
Resources has reviewed the Industrial Waste Survey (IWS) for the City of Whiteville. This IWS was initially
received by the Division on April 30, 2019.
The review indicates that overall the IWS is adequate and meets the minimum requirements of 40 CFR
403.8 (f)(2). Proper completion of an Industrial Waste Survey is also required by Section IV (C) of your
NPDES permit. Please refer to the Comprehensive Guidance for North Carolina Pretreatment Programs
(Comprehensive Guide) for additional information and examples.
Please remember it is the responsibility of the POTW to continue efforts to ensure that any Significant
Industrial Users (SIUs), as defined by NCAC 15A 2H .0903(b)(9) (A) through (D), are identified and
subsequently added to the City's pretreatment program. This includes evaluation of new IUs before they
commence discharge and evaluation of existing IUs determined to be not SIUs that make changes to their
process.
Next IWS Due Date: The IWS was conducted in 2019. Your next updated IWS is due on January 31, 2024,
unless conditions at the POTW change significantly and thus warrant an earlier submittal.
Thank you for your continued cooperation with the Pretreatment Program. If you have any questions or
comments, please contact me at [phone] [email: [e-mail]] or Deborah Gore,
Unit Supervisor at [phone] [email: Debora [e-mail]].
Sincerely,
DocuSigned by:
