Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG020548
Anson County
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request to rescind your
coverage under Certificate of Coverage Number NCG020548. In accordance with your request,
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG020548 is rescinded effective immediately.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 will be happy to assist you in assuring the proper permit coverage.
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 us at 919-707-9200, or the Stormwater
staff in our Fayetteville Regional Office, [phone].
