Mr. Lorenzo Carmon:
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater and General Permits Unit hereby acknowledges receipt of your form
SWU-266: Stormwater non -ownership 1 non -operation certification on December 9, 2002.
Please be advised that this certification is accepted based wholly upon your evaluation. Division staff has not visited
your facilities to obtain independent verification. Discharging stormwater from a small municipal separate storm
sewer system covered by this program to the waters of the state without a valid NPDES permit will subject the
responsible party to a civil penalty up to $25,000 a day.
The Division encourages you to continue to keep abreast of the permanent rulemaking process associated with the
NPDES Stormwater Discharge Program. The final North Carolina permanent rules as currently proposed would
rely on factors other than ownership and operation to determine which public bodies need to seek permit coverage.
It is possible that your jurisdictional area will be subject to stormwater permit coverage once the permanent rules are
finalized. The Environmental Management Commission approved taking draft permanent rule language to public
notice and public hearing at their February 13, 2003 meeting. The public hearings will be held during the month of
April and you are encouraged to continue participating in the process.
Note that this certification does not affect the legal requirement to obtain other permits which may be required by
the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management
Act, or any other Federal or Local government.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact Mr. Darren England at telephone number (919) 733-
5083, extension 545.

Subject: NPDES Phase Il Stormwater Program
Mr. Lorenzo Carmon :
In 1990 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (17PA) Phase I stormwater program was promulgated under the
Clean Water Act. Phase I relies on National PDllutant discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit coverage to
address stormwater runoff from: (1) "medium" and "large" municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) generally
serving populations of 100,000 or greater, (2) construction activity disturbing 5 acres of land or greater, and (3) ten
categories of industrial activity. The NPDES Stormwater Phase If Final Rule was promulgated in December 1999 and is
the next step in ETA's effort to preserve, protect, and improve the Nation's water resources frorn polluted storm water,
runoff. The Phase 11 program expands the Phase I program by requiring additional operators of MS4s in urbanized areas
and operators of small construction sites, through the use of NPDES permits, to implement programs and practices to
control slorinwaler runoff. Phase U is intended to further reduce adverse impacts to water quality and aquatic habitat by
instituting the use of controls on the unregulated sources of stormwater discharges that have the greatest likelihood of
causing continued environmental degradation.
The NPDES Stormwater Phase II Final Rule requires nationwide coverage of all operators of small MS4s that are
located within the boundaries of a Bureau of the Census defined "urbanized area" based on the latest decennial Census.
We are writing to you to remind you that Edgecombe County has been identified as being located within it census
designated urbanized area in both the 1990 and 2000 decennial census. As it regulated community, you arc required to
develop a stormwater management program and apply for stormwater permit coverage, if you own and operate a small
MS4 or fife tt certification that Edgecombe County does not own or operate a small MS4. The deadline for Submitting
your application package or non -ownership certification is March 10. 2003. Application and certification documents, a�
well as additional information on the NPDES stormwater program, are available for download at our web site. Our wet)
address is http://l12o.enr.state.nc.us/su/stormwiter.htni]. You may also contact us for hard copies of the documents. If
YOU have any questions about this letter, please feel free to contact me (919-733-5083. ext.525) or Darren England
