Point Blvd., #1901 Charlotte, NC 28273 Subject: Rescission of NPDES General Permit Permit Number NCG030298 York International Corporation Mecklenburg County Dear Mr. Bleacher: Reference is made to your recent request for rescission of the subject NPDES General Permit. On the returned annual fee invoice you state that the facility has been closed and therefore you no longer require coverage under the general permit. In accordance with your request, NPDES General Permit NCG030298 is rescinded, effective immediately. Please be advised that this permit rescission is based wholly upon your statement that the activities which would require general permit coverage at the site have ceased or been eliminated. Division staff has not visited the site to obtain independent verification. Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to waters of the State without a valid NPDES permit will subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. Enforcement action will be certain for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit. If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage. If you have questions about this matter, please contact Bob Sledge at (919) 733-5083, extension 547 or the Water Quality staff in our Mooresville Regional Office at (704) 663-1699. Sincere Alan W.

Easley, Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources December 27, 2001 Gregory J. Thorpe, Ph.D. Acting Director Division of Water Quality APR 1 G 2002 Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Renewal, .. YORK INTERNATIONAL CO RATION COC Number NCG030298 Mecklenburg County Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG030000. This permit expires on August 31, 2002. The Division staff is currently in the process of rewriting this permit and is scheduled to have the permit reissued by late summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit. In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find a General Permit Coverage Renewal Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by March 4, 2002 in order to assure continued coverage under the general permit. Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day. Please note that recent federal legislation has extended the "no exposure exclusion" to all operators of industrial facilities in any of the I 1 categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except construction activities). If you feel your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e- the facilty industrial materials and operations are not exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion. For additional information contact the Central Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater & General Permits Unit Web Site at http:/lh2o.enr.state.nc.ustsu/stormwater.htmI If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed Rescission Request Form.
