Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Valdese Warehouse LLC
Certificate of Coverage: NCG170098
Burke County
Dear Mr. Stacy:
On June 3, 2019, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to rescind
your coverage under NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG170098. After inspection of the facility on June 4,
2019 and in accordance with your request, Certificate of Coverage NCG170098 is rescinded effective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 the Stormwater staff in our Asheville Regional
Office at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
for S. Daniel Smith
Interim Director
