Section D: Summary of Findings/Comments (Attach additional sheets if necessary)
1. According to the DMR reports reviewed for the period March 1994 through February 1995, the plant's effluent was in
compliance with the NPDES Permits Limits for both pipes .001 and .002. There were some weekly/daily violations for
suspended solids and too infrequent reporting for which "NOV's" were issued.
2. The effluent flow meter was checked/calibrated on October 13, 1994 by Fischer and Porter Co.
3. Heritage Laboratory of Charlotte does all of the Permit required analytical work.
4. Upon inspection of the clarifiers overflow weirs, and the facility's effluent, there was no foam or floating objects. Also,
the effluent stream was almost lucid with a low level of suspended solids.
5. A discussion was held with the "ORC" and "Back -Up" operators regarding proper methods and locations of "upstream
downstream sampling. Also, both permits were reviewed concerning limitations, sampling frequencies, type of and
of sampling in order to facilitate a clear understanding by the operators of the provisions of the NPDES PA mit'%

Dear Mr. Howard,
During the week of November 21, 1994, both BOD -5 and TSS for
Outfall 001 were tested once versus 3/week as required by the
referenced NPDES permit. During that same week, the Outfall 002
weekly Fluoride analysis was not performed.
This noncompliant monitoring was due to our contract laboratory
closing Thursday and Friday of that week for Thanksgiving. Our n
sample collection days are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. 1 Wei
were not aware of the laboratory's holiday schedule until itj'was-<
too late to submit the Wednesday and Thursday samples. n
To prevent recurrence of these noncompliances, we have worked
closely with our laboratory to ensure that three daily samples 21
are analyzed during the weeks affected by Christmas and New
Year's. We are also considering changing to a laboratory whose
work schedule does not interfere with our analytical
requirements.
If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please
feel free to contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Michael E. Johnson
