Badin Business Park LLC (P. O. Box 576, Badin, NC 28009) has requested Special Order by Consent EMC SOC WQ S18-010 for its Badin Business Park, a facility that discharges groundwater, stormwater, and fire protection water to Little Mountain Creek and Badin Lake (Yadkin River) in the Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin under the authority of NPDES Permit NC0004308 but is unable to consistently comply with effluent limits for total fluoride and total cyanide.

Badin Business Park LLC shall comply with NPDES permit limits with the exception of the interim effluent limitations identified in the Order. This Order will expire on Feb. 28, 2019.
