' COUNTY OF.CAMDEN, NORTH CAROLINA
WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN
INTRODUCTION
' A portion of the Pasquotank River watershed is located in the County of
Camden, North Carolina. There are no water supply intakes in the portion of the
' watershed located in Camden Count and only a small portion y y p of the critical area
of this watershed is in the County. The watershed is classified as a WS-IV
Watershed by the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural
Resources (DEHNR), Division of Environmental Management (DEM).
The Pasquotank River watershed is a supply source for the City of Elizabeth
' City. However, the intake from the Pasquotank River for Elizabeth City's water
supply is not used except in emergency situations and thus has been used
' infrequently in the past several years.
'In addition to th
is plan, Camden County has adopted, and will implement,
' the Camden County North Carolina Water Supply Watershed Protection Ordinance.
Further, it has caused a map to be created showing the boundaries of the
watershed. See EXHIBIT 1. The Ordinance and map will be used to minimize non -
source pollution from run-off through density and buffer requirements and are
designed to work in concert with existing County regulations such as zoning and
subdivision design standards.
11
Hazardous and toxic chemical spills, particularly if they occur within the
watershed boundary, pose a significant environmental threat. Camden County
officials are cognizant of this threat given that the County -is crossed by
transportation routes that facilitate the movement of hazardous and toxic
chemicals in and through the jurisdiction.
The State of North Carolina requires this management plan contain an
inventory of the names and addresses of industries located within the Pasquotank
River watershed as it occurs in Camden County, that report the use, storage, or
manufacture hazardous materials. Also, the general spill containment procedures
to be used by the County in the event of a spill through its emergency management
authority must be addressed.
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INVENTORY
Land use patterns in Camden County reflect the rural nature of the
locality. Over 90% of the land area remains wooded or is used in agriculture.
Industrial development is minimal. However, there are several commercial
establishments that sell gasoline and other fuels located within the watershed
area in the County. See EXHIBIT 2. The South Mills Water Association operates
a water purification and distribution system.serving parts of both Camden County
and Pasquotank County and the South Mills community.
Discussions with the Emergency Management Coordinator serving Camden
County, the City of Elizabeth City, and Pasquotank County, reveal that there are
no reported inventories of hazardous chemicals within the watershed area located
in Camden County. The Coordinator stated that the responsibility for completing
- 2 -
' and filing hazardous chemical reports with the local fire departments and local
emergency management agency falls upon the individual businesses, industries, and
' agencies using, storing, or manufacturing hazardous or toxic chemicals. The
' North Carolina Division of Emergency Management supplied a Tier Two Emergency and
Hazardous Chemical Inventory sheet which describes a fuel storage location in the
watershed area at a Carolina Telephone and Telegraph Company Central Office
Building on Old U.S. Highway 17 North. See EXHIBIT 3.
GENERAL SPILL CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES
Response to hazardous or toxic chemical spills occurs when a report is made
' to the Central Communications Center serving Camden County, Pasquotank County,
and the City of Elizabeth City. The effected fire department will be dispatched
' to the scene of the incident. The Emergency Management Coordinator is notified
of the incident being reported and engages emergency response personnel as
needed. Spills posing a threat to the Pasquotank River may necessitate the
' notification of United States Coast Guard and the United States Army Corps of
Engineers. The City of Elizabeth City's water plant is not immediately notified
' since the City's water intake into the Pasquotank River is used in emergency
situations, as previously discussed. The Elizabeth City Fire Department employs
trained personnel, certified in hazardous materials handling, and must therefore
be relied upon to respond to certain spill situations. The City's personnel are
available through a Mutual Aid Firefighting/Emergency Incident Agreement
' involving fire departments serving Camden County within the watershed area. See
' EXHIBIT 4. State personnel can be called upon as well. Procedures, such as
those set forth in the "Basic Plan Appendix 8 Hazardous Material," should be
followed in the event of an incident. See EXHIBIT 5. These, or similar
procedures, should be approved by the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC)
' and the County.
SUMMARY
' Camden County will continue to rely on existing agreements and general
procedures as discussed herein to effectively handle hazardous or toxic chemical
' spills and facilitate containment. The County's fire departments, working in
concert with those of neighboring localities, state and federal agencies, and the
public, will implement this plan.

BASIC PLAN
APPENDIX 8
HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
EXHIBIT 5
I. PURPOSE
This appendix provides additional information to the basic
plan for response to hazardous material emergencies and to
meet the jurisdiction's responsibilities pursuant to the
Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act of 1-986
(Title III), Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Fct
of 1986 (SARA).
II. SITUATION AND ASSUMPTIONS
rA.
Situation
1.
The specific facilities involved with Hazardous
'
Materials subject to the emergency planning
requirements of Section 302 of the Super-6fund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (Sc�A,
'
Title III) are listed in the facility information
notebook on file in the Central Communication
Center.
2.
The threat of a major disaster involving hazardous
materials has escalated due. -to the increase in
everyday use and transportation of -chemicals by
'
the various segments of our population.
3.
The results of a hazardous material incident could
'
include the death or serious injury of persons
exposed to the material, the spread of
contaminants in varying degree throughout the
'
County, and the destruction of property from
fire, explosion, and exposure.
'
4.
Evacuation, a protective measure, could isolate
evacuees from their.homes for an indefinite
period of time.,
r5.
victims of a hazardous material incidents may
require unique or special medical care not
typically required in other types of emergencies.
6.
The release: of hazardous materials may have short
and/or long term health and environmental effects
'
depending upon the chemical composition of the
substance.
'
7.
A hazardous material incident may affect several
.
hundreds of people within the jurisdiction
without warning.
Revised September 30,1991
BP-8-1
8. A hazardous material incident may require the public
to shelter -in -place or to evacuate depend"ing'upon
conditions at the time of the emergency.
'
B. Assumptions
This plan can be effective if the following assump-
tions prove true:
1. Most, but not all, people affected by a hazardcus
material incident' will follow instructions and
shelter -in -place or relocate to designated
shelters.
'
2. Public notification/warning and evacuation, if
required, will be in accordance with the
procedures described in the Notification and
'
Warning Annex (Annex C) and the Evacuation and
Transportation Annex (Annex I) of this plan.
'
3.
The local jurisdiction must respond to the incident
in the initial phase without assistance from
outside the jurisdiction. It is assumed that
'
emergency response agencies will take appropriate
actions to prevent or minimize the spread of the
material, provide early first aid as necessary,
and manage the incident scene with emphasis
'
toward safety of the public and responding
personnel.
'
4.
Planning and training prior to an incident will
significantly reduce the risk to personnel.
'
5.
The hazardous material involved in an incident can
be identified within a reasonable period of time
by the owner of the facility or the vehicle, by
the shipping documents, 'by the properties of the
1
material itself, or by information provided
pursuant to SARA, Title III or the. N. C. Right -to
'
Know Act.
6.
A facility involved in a hazardous material incident
will provide all information required by SARA,
'
Title III, Section 304 on a timely basis,
including a written report.
7.
Emergency response personnel are knowledgeable in
the use of available resources.
'
8.
The U. S. DOT Emergency Response Guidebook, alone or
in combination with other information sources, is
used as a guide for initial protective action at
incidents involving hazardous materials; this
'
guidebook is intended primarily for internal size -
up of transportation accidents.
Revised September 30,1991
BP. 8.2
CONCEPT OF OPERATION
III.
A.
There are tNo types of incidents involving hazardous
'
materials; (1) incidents at fixed facilities and (2)
transportation incident.
'
B.
The level of response required for an incident is
determined by:
'
1. the quantity and the toxic effects of the material
involved in the release;
'
2. the population and/or property threatened;
3. the type and availability of protective equipment
'
required for the released material, and;
4. the probable consequences should no immediate action
be taken.
incident,
C.
Depending upon the threat posed by the
protective measures initiated for the safety of the
public could include in -place shelter, evacuation, and
isolation of the contaminated environment.
D.
Incidents are classified according to level of risk
according to the Incident Commander's assessment.
Level I (Potential Emergency Condition) is an incident
'
which can be controlled by the first response agencies,
does not require evacuation of other than the involved
structure or immediate outdoor area, and does not
indicate major environmental damage will occur.
Level' II (Limited Emergency Condition) is an incident
that involves a critical hazard with a potential threat
to life or property, requires a limited evacuation of
the surrounding area, or suggests that major environ-
mental damage could occur. Initial response to the
incident can be adequately handled by the jurisdic-
tion's personnel and resources.
'
Level III (Full Emergency Condition) is an incident
an
involving a severe hazard or large area, poses
extreme threat to life and property, and will probably
require a large-scale evacuation. Level III includes
or.
an incident requiring the combined expertise
resources of local, state, federal and/or private
'
agencies/organizations.
E.
Response procedures for each level of incident will be
according to local policies and procedures in compli-
ante with worker safety standards.
Revised Sectember 30,190-1
'
F. This plan recognizes that a hazardous material incident
can change with time, and necessitate escalating the
response to a higher level, or down -grading the respon-
se'* to lower levels as the situation is controlled.
G. When responding to an incident where hazardous
materials are known to be stored, the responders will
assume the involvement of the most toxic substance at
that location unless otherwise informed.
'
H. A Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) has been
established at the jurisdiction level to identify the
magnitude of the local hazard, assess the vulnerability
of the community to that hazard, and provide planning
guidance for emergency response. Representation on the
LEPC is prescribed by the policy of the North Carolina
'
Emergency Response Commission, and those. agencies or
groups/facilities that have an interest in hazardous
materials may have a representative on the committee. A
point of contact (Facility Emergency Coordinator) will
'
be identified at each covered facility under SA_A,
Title III, Section 302. This Facility Emergency
'
Coordinator will provide the necessary emergency
response information on the facility to the planning
committee.
I. Notification of a release
of a hazardous chemical may be provided by any one who
recognizes that a release• has occurred. The telephone
will be the primary means of alerting for any hazardous
'
material incident, however, other methods including
fire and other alarm systems may be•used for initial
notification if accepted by the LEPC. (See Attachment
'
3 for recommended procedure.)
J. Warning and notification .of. the public, including
'
warning and notification to special populations such as
the hearing impaired, will be accomplished in accord-
ance with the Notification and Warning Annex (Annex C)
'
of this plan. Procedures for warning that have been
developed for the hazard* zones surrounding identified
fixed facilities supersede the provisions of Annex C.
I. As necessary, emergency vehicles with effective sound
devices (sirens and/or public address systems) may be
used as a public alerting system. If a fixed notifica-
'
tion system is in place around the facility or emer-
gency area the vehicles may be used as a backup system.
The vehicles will be dispatched within the evacuation
'
area and will stop at each quarter (1/4) mile in
populated areas and at each house or group of houses
that are more than 1/4 mile apart. The emergency
'
vehicle will notify the public of the situation and/or
recommend protective action. To ensure receipt of the
Revised September 30,1991
BP.8.4
' initial warning by all members of the community,,each
route should be run twice if possible. The second run,
or.backrun, will be to confirm alert and notification.
' Backruns need only stop at houses that are dark at
night or where it is apparent that people are not com-
plying with instructions. If necessary, door-to-dcor
alerting will be accomplished during the second run.
' IV. ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES

GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN
FOR WATER AND SEWER
CAMDEN COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
The preparation of this report was financed in part through a grant provided by
the North Carolina Coastal Management Program, through funds provided by
the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amended, which is
administered by the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resources Management,
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
I. INTRODUCTION
Camden County is located in the northeastern part of North Carolina. The County
contains a total land area of 240.5 square miles. Camden County is bounded by Virginia
on the north, Pasquotank and Gates Counties on the west, and Currituck County on the
east. The North River bounds the County to the east, the Pasquotank River to the west,
and the Albemarle Sound to the south. Elevations range from near sea level to 24 feet
above sea level at the western edge of the Great Dismal Swamp. The Dismal Swamp
comprises a major portion of the northern portion of the County while the Great Swamp
occupies the south and east portions of the County.
Ground water is the only source of usable water in Camden County. The depth to
brackish water is normally more than 100 feet in the northern half of the County and less
than 100 feet in the southern half. Limited quantities of fresh water are located in the
surficial aquifers only. The water in these aquifers ranges from soft to very hard and
generally contains excessive amounts of iron.
Soils in Camden County are generally productive farmlands. The major crops include
corn, soybeans, potatoes, cabbage, and small grain. The soils range from very poorly
drained to well drained nearly level locations. Generally, the soils in Camden County
that are well suited to crops are well suited to urban uses.
In previous years, the Growth Management Plan for rural areas such as Camden County
has been farming. The prices of crops have dictated growth in these rural farming
communities. Today, the prices of crops are very low and the farming industry is
declining. Camden County is no exception to this rule.
' Camden County is experiencing a large amount of residential growth, particularly in its
northern areas. Unlike farming, residential growth will require adequate water and sewer
facilities. It is Camden County's intention to allow the availability of water and sewer
' facilities to control growth. This report will provide a planning document to outline
water and sewer resources available to provide a planned growth for Camden County.
The preparation of this report was financed in part through a grant provided by the North
Carolina Coastal Management Program, through funds provided by the Coastal Zone
Management Act of 1972, as amended, which is administered by the Office of Ocean and
Coastal Resources Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
C
1 II. EXISTING FACILITIES
The northern and southern portions of the County presently have separate rural
' water systems. The northern portion of the County is served by the South Mills Water
Association (SMWA) and the southern portion of the County is served by the South
Camden Water and Sewer District (SCW&SD). The County does not contain any
' community sewer systems. The following sections provide an overview of the existing
water facilities in the County.
I A. SMWA
' The SMWA system was constructed in the mid 1960's. The system
started with approximately 85 users with a 100 gallon per minute (gpm) well and
treatment consisting of aeration with the addition of chlorine. In the mid 1970's, the
' system was expanded to approximately 400 users with approximately 180 of the users
located in the Morgan's Corner area of Pasquotank County. Today, the system has
approximately 1,500 customers with approximately one half in Camden County and one
' half in Pasquotank County. The service area of the SMWA within Camden County is the
South Mills Township which comprises the northern half of the County.
' SMWA has a history of problems with its water resource. Water is obtained from wells
located in the surficial aquifer of less than 100 feet in depth. These wells are low
yielding and high in iron and hardness. The first well was installed in 1963 and produced
' approximately 100 gpm and lasted nine years. The second well produced 60 gpm and
lasted 10 years. Around 1976, twelve wells were installed. All but one of these wells
had to be replaced. Until 1999, SMWA had nine wells which produced a combined total
' of 250 gpm. Another well was abandoned that year. Wells have been abandoned
primarily due to the low yield and iron deposits causing well screens to fail. In 1999,
SMWA expanded its production and treatment facilities. Eight new wells were added.
' The highest producing well was approximately 50 gpm. Total production of the 16 wells
is 500 gpm.
' Up to 1999, water was treated with a 300 gpm pressure filtration and ion exchange
softening plant. The treatment facility was expanded to a 600 gpm system with an
additional pressure filtration and ion exchange softening train. The system has 75,000
' gallon and 100,000 gallon elevated storage tanks and a 100,000 gallon ground storage
tank.
' Availability of an adequate water source is a growth restricting factor for the water
system. The SMWA is in constant search of additional wells to meet the demand as well
as funds necessary to construct the wells. The surficial aquifer cannot yield adequate
' producing wells. Underlying water bearing stratas produce water which is too high in
chlorides for conventional treatment and consumption.
B. SCW&SD
' The SCW&SD was formed in the early 1990's with Phase I of the system
complete in the mid 1990's. The system contains approximately 70 miles of 2" — 10"
water mains and a 250,000 gallon elevated water storage tank. Potable water is supplied
through bulk water purchase from Elizabeth City. The system has approximately 600
users.
' A funding application was made to USDA -Rural Development for additional water main
extensions in the system consisting of a distribution system to serve the central portion of
the County. USDA -Rural Development refused to fund the project unless Elizabeth City
' lowered its water purchase rate of $3.20 per 1,000 gallons or an alternative source of
water was found. Due to eligibility of only 45% grant from USDA -Rural Development, a
water treatment facility was not feasible with only 600 users and Elizabeth City would
' not commit to lowering its rates. The fund application for the distribution system
expansion was withdrawn in 1998.
' In May of 1999, Camden County went to arbitration with Elizabeth City to get the rates
lowered. In September of 1999 this arbitration forced Elizabeth City to lower the rates to
$2.47 per 1,000 gallons; however, it is speculated that the water rates will go back to
' $3.20 per 1,000 gallons or higher in the very near future.
k
III. ALTERNATIVES AVAILABLE
' A. Water
The purpose of this section is to analyze various sources of water available
' for Camden County as well as feasible service areas and distribution systems.
1. Water Resources Available
' a. Bulk Water Purchase
iThere are three water systems surrounding Camden
County: Elizabeth City, Currituck County, and Pasquotank County water systems. As
previously discussed, SCW&SD presently purchases all its potable water from Elizabeth
' City. The District has a purchase contract for up to 4.5 million gallons per month. The
District purchased water at a rate of $3.20 per 1,000 gallons. A recent arbitration got the
' rate lowered to $2.47 per 1,000 gallons; however, the rate is expected to be raised in the
very near future. Due to the high rates and limited availability of water, it is not
recommended that SCW&SD utilize bulk water purchase from Elizabeth City as a long-
term water source. It is also pointed out that USDA -Rural Development will not fund
any more water projects in Camden County until another source of water is found or
Elizabeth City substantially lowers its water rates.
' Pasquotank County is in a similar situation as Camden County and has a limited supply
of water. Pasquotank County has its own water source but also purchases water from
' Elizabeth City. Approximately 700 users in the northern portion of Pasquotank County
are served by the SMWA. Utilization of bulk water purchase from Pasquotank County is
not an adequate long-term water source for Camden County.
' Currituck County has its own water source which also has a limited capacity. Due to its
limited capacity and the construction cost of a water main interconnection, bulk water
' purchase from Currituck County is not a feasible long-term water source.
b. Surface Water
' Camden County is surrounded by surface water on three
sides including the Pasquotank River, the North River, and the Albemarle Sound.
Surface water as a potable water source is not a feasible alternative due to factors such as
fluctuations in chloride concentrations, high levels of organic matter, color, and algae
' blooms. For this reason, there are no surface water facilities located in northeastern
North Carolina.
' C. Ground Water
Six major aquifers are identified in Camden County. They
' include the surficial, Yorktown, Castle Hayne, Beaufort, Upper and Lower Cape Fear
aquifers. The Division of Water Resources has mapped these aquifers and performed
studies of the hydrogeologic framework for the groundwater in the area. Potable
' groundwater supplies in the region are primarily found in the Surficial and Yorktown
aquifers. Each aquifer has been mapped by the State and is described in detail in terms of
regional elevation, thickness, and lateral distribution hydraulic properties in relationship
' to strateographic units, groundwater flow, and chloride distribution. The approximate
positions of 250, 500, and 10,000 parts per million (ppm) chloride interfaces have been
plotted for each aquifer, identifying where potable water supplies may be found, and
' where reverse osmosis treatment would be necessary in order to produce potable water.
Declining water levels are documented throughout the region. SMWA is one of the few
' remaining entities utilizing the surficial aquifer for a water source. The wells are very
low producing and SMWA is in constant search for new well sites and funds. As
referenced in the Hydrogeologic Framework and Groundwater Resources of the North
' Albemarle Region, North Carolina, May 1998, prepared by the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Resources, it is
the recommendation that future water supplies to be located in the Yorktown and Castle
' Hayne aquifers. The location of an ample supply of fresh water is very doubtful and hit
or miss at best. The State maximum contaminant level for chlorides is 250 ppm. It is
anticipated that where an ample supply of water can be found, the chlorides will be above
250 ppm. As with Elizabeth City, Pasquotank County, and Currituck County, it is the
recommendation of Camden County to pursue a reverse osmosis treatment facility.
SMWA utilizes wells to draw from the surficial aquifer in the northern portion of the
County. These wells are less than 100 feet deep. Although they are high in iron and
hardness, chloride levels are within acceptable limits. However, these wells are very low
' yielding wells, typically less than 50 gpm. As the northern portion of the County
continues to grow, it will become increasingly difficult to find an ample supply of water
from the surficial aquifer. Waters higher in chlorides from the lower aquifers can be
' treated by reverse osmosis; however, the location of the discharge for the concentrate is
difficult in this region.
C
The Garrington Island region in southeastern Camden County contains a water system
serving a small trailer park and motel. The well for the water system produces water that
does not require treatment other than disinfection to meet State standards for water
quality. This well has been pumped at a rate of 600 gpm for 24 hours by the Division of
Water Resources with only approximately 60-foot drawdown. Although the well has a
high yield potential, it is uncertain the effects of long term high pumping rates on
potential upconing of high chloride water from the lower aquifers. It may be possible to
pump a well field at a lower rate for the use of a supplemental water source.
2. Distribution
' A majority of the feasible areas to provide water service to is
presently served with the exception of the central portion of the County which is the
northern portion of Courthouse Township. Studies have been performed which
' recommend the layout and sizing of distribution mains to serve the rural residences in this
remaining unserved portion of the County. Studies have also been performed on the need
for a large diameter transmission main from the central portion to the northern portion of
I
the County and the U.S. Highway 158 area. These systems will be presented in detail in
following sections.
B. Sewer
' Due to the expense of sewer systems, only the most populous regions of
Camden County can be considered for a community sewer system. This section will
review the types of collection and treatment facilities applicable to Camden County.
1. Collection Systems
I
Design data for pressure, gravity, and a combination of the two is
presented in this section.
a. Gravity Sewer Systems
Gravity sewer layout and sizing is based on State's
minimum sizing of 8" diameter PVC pipe at a minimum grade of 0.40% with manholes at
maximum spacing of 400 feet. Topographical conditions of the County present the most
difficulty in the gravity sewer system layout.
At a grade of 0.40%, the depth of the gravity sewer pipe will increase 4' vertically for
every 1,000' horizontally. Minimum depth is 3' of cover over the pipe. It is undesirable
C
and costly to install the gravity sewer main at a depth greater than 12' due to the high
water tables in Camden County. Therefore, for every 2,500' of gravity sewer main, a
pump station is required to lift the sewer up to the next section of gravity sewer mains.
b. Small Diameter Gravity (SDG) Sewer Systems
Small diameter gravity sewer collection systems consist of
the installation of 6" PVC sewer mains installed at a minimum 0.10% grade with a
cleanout every 400 feet maximum. Although the material cost is less, installation cost of
the 6" SDG system is approximately equal to the 8" gravity sewer system of equal
depths. This is due primarily to the complexity and required accuracy of installation.
Some savings are obtained due to the more shallow cuts required. This system has not
acquired the popularity in North Carolina as it has in some states such as South Carolina.
' The major problem with the SDG system is its reliability. The system is designed to
handle effluent only. Septic tanks are required at each residence. However, solids and
grease still tend to accumulate in the mains causing flow stoppage. Septic tanks must be
' pumped out at least once a year. Cleanouts are installed along the main in which
equipment with jetting and vacuum capabilities is required for maintenance. On this
basis, this system is not analyzed any further.
' C. Pressure Sewer Collection System
In a pressure sewer system, sewage is pumped through
small diameter pipes buried in shallow trenches which follow the land contour. It can be
described as a potable water system in reverse. The system consists of a pump package
' system, service lines and force mains, and the discharge treatment point.
A pump station is installed at each residence or can be shared by two residences. There
' are two primary types of pumps used: the grinder pump and effluent pump. In the
grinder pump station, the solids are ground into slurry and pumped to the discharge point.
An effluent pump is used in the STEP (septic tank effluent pump) system in which the
' pump is installed in the liquids end of the septic tank. The settleable solids and most of
the grease accumulation remain in the septic tank.
' Service lines from the pump basin to the street are usually 1'/4" Schedule 40 PVC. Force
mains are usually SDR 21 PVC pipe in sizes from 2"- 6". Sewage is pumped through the
force mains to a discharge point consisting of the treatment facility or a gravity manhole.
' Pressure manysewers stems offeradvantages and disadvantages as compared to gravity
Y
systems. The obvious advantage of pressure sewer systems is the ease of installation.
1�
u
' Typically, the largest line needed would be 6" in diameter. Pipe alignment can follow
that of the road shoulder, narrow and shallow trenches, minimum equipment and labor,
road and bridge crossings, elimination of large pump stations and manholes, and no
' infiltration or inflow are all advantages of the pressure sewer systems. Disadvantages
consist of mechanical equipment, power outages, power costs, operating problems,
' easements, and unfamiliarity with pressure sewers.
The residential pump station can be viewed as another home appliance and subject to the
' same ongoing service requirements as a home furnace, refrigerator, hot water heater, etc.
The national average for power outages is two hours. The homeowner should refrain
from washing clothes and taking showers during this period. When power is restored, all
pumps will attempt to come on creating a high head, low flow condition. The pumps are
' equipped with thermal overload protection or designed to remain in operation for some
time at no flow. Pumps nearest to the discharge point will empty first and systematically
' shut off until the system farthest from the discharge point is empty.
After installation, the pump station will be buried flush with the ground and difficult to
' notice from the road. Control panels can be located on the side of the house in an
inconspicuous location. The residents will have to grant permission to the County to
have access to the pump station.
' 2. Treatment Facilities
Treatment facilities available for Camden County consist of
surface water discharges and land application. This section will give a brief description
of each.
' a. Surface Water Discharge
' It may be possible to discharge treated wastewater into the
Pasquotank River or the North River. It will be very difficult to obtain a discharge permit
into the Albemarle Sound. It is pointed out that all discharges have been banned from the
' Currituck Sound. In order to meet the discharge limits stipulated by the Division of
Environmental Management, a mechanical treatment facility will be required such as
' extended aeration and tertiary treatment. Utilization of constructed wetlands for these
surface water discharges is possible. A constructed wetlands facility would consist of
pretreatment, typically through a mechanical plant, filtration through the constructed
' wetlands, and then discharge through a swamp or drainage way to the river.
u
n
' b. Land Application
' Pretreatment is required prior to land application. For
small communities, lagoons are usually the most practical form of pretreatment and
storage. They are relatively easy to operate and require minimal maintenance. Lagoons
' offer consistency, ease of operation and maintenance, and low cost. The lagoons can also
be used to provide the required 30-90 days of storage for wet periods when wastewater
cannot be applied to the fields.
' Land application methods consist of subsurface and surface application methods.
Subsurface application is generally more expensive than surface for community sewer
' systems. Subsurface application would consist of constructed trenches with gravel and
perforated drain line. A typical system would consist of numerous subfields with several
miles of drain line for a small community.
' Sufficient land area of suitable soils must be available for land application. In addition, a
buffer zone is required for this land application which requires minimum setbacks of 150
' feet from any property line, 400 feet from any residence, and 100 feet from surface
waters. The spray field would consist of a permanent irrigation system with the
distribution mains installed below grade or a system with movable spray guns such as a
' hose -drag -traveler that can be connected to hydrants located throughout the field. The
land may be leased or owned by the wastewater system. A typical system would grow
easily maintained vegetation such as grasses or trees. The system could also lease land
' from a farmer for growing crops such as soybeans, wheat, or corn but not crops that could
be consumed raw such as cabbage.

' IV. PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
' A. Water
1. SCW&SD Distribution System Expansion
' Camden County is made up of the SCW&SD and the SMWA. The
SCW&SD is comprised of Shiloh Township and a portion of Courthouse Township. The
' SMWA service area is within the South Mills Township.
In 1997, the SMWA acquired USDA -Rural Development loan/grant funds to complete
' extension of water mains into the remaining feasible areas of its service area. This
section will concentrate its distribution growth areas in the SCW&SD areas.
' a. Population Growth
The population growth within Shiloh and Courthouse
' townships has been primarily due to growth and development in the Elizabeth City area.
In addition, there is some indication of retirees locating in Camden County, particularly
the lower end of the County, and along the Pasquotank River.
b. Population Projection
IThe past growth trend, based upon census data, indicates
there has been very little increase in permanent population in Camden County over the
' past twenty years; however, water demands will be reflected by this increase, as well as
increase business development and seasonal or second homes. Water demand will be
based upon all of these users, not just permanent residents. Table 1 illustrates population
' projections for the County and SCW&SD. Table 2 illustrates the water usage per
customer based on 1998 data.

' C. Water Demand Projections for Distribution Sizing
' Average day water requirements for the District were
determined based on water consumption for the District in 1998. Based on monthly
consumption and the number of metered connections, average demand was 3,450 gallons
' per month per connection, or 115 gallons per day. Table 2 summarized the water
consumption for 1998.
' Water requirement is based upon 85-90% of potential users through 2010. Assuming
approximately 2.8 people per household, water requirements for residential consumption
is based on 1,380 users in the year 2000 and 1,540 users in the year 2010. Based on
' average monthly usage presented in Table 2 of 3,450 gallons per month per user, average
day residential usage is approximately 160,000 gallons per day for year 2000 and
177,000 gallons per day for year 2010. Approximately 50,000 gallons per day is added
' for commercial usage in 2000 and 75,000 gallons per day is added for 2010. The initial
average day demand projection for the enlarged District is approximately 210,000 gallons
with the average day demand increasing to approximately 280,000 gallons by the year
2010.
d. Water Distribution System
' The water distribution system for the SCW&SD has been
analyzed through computer modeling in previous studies. The system modeling was
' performed by hydraulic analysis, which is an analytical method of predicting the system
gradient (pressure) based on a given flow condition.
' Three basic distribution system analyses were modeled based on the projection of the
demand: (1) the system capacity to supply the maximum day demand; (2) the system
capacity to maintain a sufficient pressure range during a maximum hour demand period;
' (3) the system capacity to replenish storage following a maximum hour demand period.
If the model showed insufficient pressure, high velocity in pipes, or a large amount of
head loss, then the model was modified until satisfactory results were obtained. Water
' distribution systems storage is provided to supplement the peak demand periods and
provide emergency storage.
' The lines were sized to provide a minimum pressure at the service meter, during the peak
hour, of 30 pounds per square inch. As a general rule, a distribution system should have
the storage capacity for an average day demand. The existing tank is sized for 250,000
gallons. This is less than the projected average day usage in 2010; therefore, a new
300,000 gallon tank is recommended to be constructed to provide adequate storage
13
' capacity. Although the total storage is more than one day's average demand, the
additional tank will help supplement the SMWA system as discussed later in the report.
' As previously discussed, the remaining unserved areas are located in the central portion
of the County. The area was surveyed for locations of roads with an adequate number of
' houses to provide water main extensions. Figure 1 illustrates the location of roads with
adequate house counts to justify water main extensions. This project would consist of
approximately 158,000' of 6-inch water mains and 10,000' of 12-inch water mains. As
' discussed later in the report, a water production facility is proposed just south of the
Camden Village which can supply water to the SCW&SD as wells as supplement the
SMWA system. Therefore, this project will also consist of the construction of a new 16-
' inch water transmission main for the proposed water treatment facility to Camden Village
and a 14-inch water transmission main to the Burnt Mills area or the service area
boundary of SMWA. A 300,000 gallon elevated water storage tank is needed in the
' Burnt Mills area to provide pressure and storage for the northern service area of the
SCW&SD and supply pressure and flow for water to the SMWA. Figure 2 illustrates the
location of the needed transmission mains and water tank.
e. Estimated Project Costs
' The estimated project costs for the water distribution
system improvements to the central portion of the County are summarized in Table 3.
The probable costs do not include inflation factors to predict future prices at the time of
' actual construction. The total estimated cost is $3,591,021.

2. Transmission Main to Serve South Mills Area
a. Introduction
A source of potable water is a major limiting factor to the
growth of northern Camden County. SMWA presently obtains its water from sixteen
wells located in the surficial aquifer which produce very low -yielding wells. The wells
' are continually running dry causing the SMWA to be in constant search of new well sites
and funding for new wells.
' Due to high water rates and a limited quantity from Elizabeth City, the need has been
discussed for Camden County to construct a reverse osmosis water treatment facility to
serve SCW&SD and SMWA. In addition, SCW&SD should install additional
distribution mains to its rural water system and a 14-inch water transmission main to the
service area boundary between SCW&SD and SMWA.
' The purpose of this section is to present the need and requirements to extend the
transmission water main from the SCW&SD into the SMWA service area. The SMWA
service area is the fastest growing portion of the County and is unable to meet its potable
' water needs. Additional water can be supplied from the proposed Camden County water
treatment facility. This project will consist of approximately 72,500 feet of 12-inch water
transmission main; a 300,000 gallon elevated water storage tank, booster pump station,
' and master meter vault.
b. Water Demand Projections
' Population projections for Camden County have been
presented in previous sections for SCW&SD and for Camden County. Camden County is
' becoming inundated with requests to build subdivisions. Developers are being put on
hold until water supply issues can be resolved. Population growth for Camden County
from 1970 to 1990 was 11 %, but this is expected to significantly change due to the influx
' of people from the Virginia area. -Growth from 1999 to 2019 is expected to be as high as
2% per year in the SMWA service area.
The Camden County water treatment facility will be sized to serve a present day potential
of 1,500 users in SCW&SD or 300,000 gallons per day (gpd). The initial plant size will
' be 500 gpm or 720,000 gpd. For treatment plant sizing purposes, the 20-year projection
of water demands for SCW&SD is anticipated at 420,000 gallons per day for an average
day demand and 700,000 gpd for a peak day demand. The water treatment facility is
' expandable to 1,000 gpm or 1,440,000 gpd. Plant surplus will be for the SMWA.

18
I
C
n
SMWA has a present daily demand of 220,000 gpd. A 40% increase to the year 2019
will be a demand of 308,000 gpd. SMWA has recently received requests from five
developers for water service to a total of a potential of 2,720 lots not including
commercial and a potential school. Present average residential demand is 147 gpd. This
equates to a present day residential demand of 619,840 gpd and a year 2019 average day
demand of 707,840 gpd. Applying the same peaking factor as SCW&SD puts the 2019
peak day demand at 1,175,000 gpd.
The year 2019 peak day demand for all of Camden County will be 1,875,000 gpd. Total
water treatment facility capacity for the County will be at 2,304,000 gpd. However, well
capacity will be at 1,805,760 gpd. SMWA will need to find at least three more wells at
approximately 35 gpm to meet the water demand projections presented.
C. Proposed Transmission System to SMWA
The Camden County water treatment facility will have the
capacity to supply 740,000 gpd to SMWA at build -out. A 14-inch water main is needed
to supply water to the northern boundary of the SCW&SD. A 300,000 gallon elevated
water storage tank will be built by SCW&SD at the end of the 14-inch water main.
The proposed project will provide a water transmission main along N.C. Highway 343
and U.S. Highway 17 to supplement the SMWA water production facility with water
purchased from the Camden County water treatment facility. The present SMWA water
production and treatment facilities cannot supply all the present development demands
plus anticipated growth projections. Continuation of well drilling in the surficial aquifer
is not a long-term solution.
The proposed project will install a master meter vault at the southern boundary of the
SMWA service area. A water transmission main will be installed along N.C. Highway
343 and U.S. Highway 17 to the Virginia border to provide needed water to the area of
highest development. At a potential flow of 740,000 gpd, a 12-inch water main is needed
to prevent excessive head loss (i.e. 40 feet of head loss with a 12-inch water main versus
over 120 feet of head loss to a 10-inch water main with a water tank providing only
approximately 150 feet of head capability). The water transmission main will be used to
fill a proposed 300,000 gallon elevated water tank just north of South Mills. An
intermediate booster pump station will be needed to fill the tank. Figure 3 shows a layout
map of the proposed transmission facilities. The proposed project is estimated at
$2,993,387. Table 4 provides a detailed cost analysis.

3. Proposed Water Treatment Facility
a. Introduction
' An alternate water source is needed for Camden County.
Wholesale water purchase rates from Elizabeth City are very high and are contractually
limiting on the amount of water available.
' SCW&SD cannot expand its water system without an alternate water source. Declining
water table levels and poor water quality as well as rapid population increases create a
I
need for the extended water system.
SMWA obtains its water from the surficial aquifer and utilizes conventional treatment
' methods. An adequate supply of water cannot be found in the surficial aquifer to meet
the needs of the SMWA. The Association is faced with the issue of finding an alternate
water source to meet the needs of this population growth.
' The Division of Water Resources has documented declining groundwater levels in the
Albemarle area and southeastern Virginia. Southeastern Virginia's withdrawal of
' groundwater has increased dramatically. Much of the declining water levels is due to
withdrawals by Union Camp Corporation located in Franklin, Virginia. It has been
documented that groundwater levels in the region have lowered as much as two feet per
' year.
b. Demand
' Camden County would serve as the sole source of water
supply for the SCW&SD and supplement the water supply for the SMWA. The
SCW&SD presently has a contract with Elizabeth City which can be terminated when
' Camden County completes the new water treatment facilities. The initial phase of a _
water distribution system serving SCW&SD is under operation and plans have been made
to construct an additional phase which will complete the District's system. A detailed
analysis of the water demands for the SCW&SD was presented in the previous sections.
' Assume the statewide average demand at 5,000 gallons/month/user based on 1,500 users
for the District is 250,000 gallons per day. For water supply planning purposes, 300,000
gallons/day is used for the 1,500 connections or 6,000 gallons per month each. The
' population is anticipated to continue its current growth rate. In the twenty-year period
1
22
L
' between 1970 and 1990, the County experienced about 11% increase in population.
There is considerable building of new homes and subdivisions throughout the County. It
is reasonable to assume the growth between 1999 and 2019 will be approximately 2% per
' year for a 40% increase. The water requirements will then be approximately 420,000
gallons for an average day or 700,000 gallons for a peak day.
tThe water demand of SMWA is nearing 300,000 gallons per day. The water treatment
plant facilities have been recently upgraded to 600,000 gallons per day. It is expected
' that SMWA will reach its capacity in the next ten years.
C. Supply
IThe Division of Water Resources has performed
groundwater studies in the Camden County area as well as the northeast portion of the
' State. In May of 1998, a hydrogeological framework and groundwater resource
evaluation was performed by the Division of Water Resources. Knowledge of the
SMWA water supply was also used in evaluation of wells for the County.
Figures 4, 5, and 6 illustrate a hydrogeologic cross sectional map of Camden County. Of
interest in this map are the depths of the aquifers as well as the chloride isochlor lines. It
' can be seen that chloride levels are above 250 ppm found in the groundwater at depths
greater than 100 feet. Basically, the surficial aquifer is the only fresh water available.
However, this will not provide productive wells. Water supply from this project will be
' most likely from the Yorktown aquifer. The Yorktown aquifer in this region extends to
approximately 300 feet. Chlorides can be in the range of 1,000-3,500 ppm. A reverse
osmosis water treatment facility will be required to treat this water.
The best water in the County is located in the very northwest corner of the County and in
the Castle Hayne aquifer. Although reverse osmosis treatment will still be required, the
' chloride levels are lower in this region. The dilemma is with the required discharge for
RO concentrate. The discharge waters for the RO concentrate will need to be brackish to
nearly match the RO concentrate and not affect aquatic life. The discharge will need to
' be south of Camden Village in the Pasquotank River.
The wells will have to produce 1,428 gpm for a twelve-hour operation period. Three
' wells are anticipated to meet this demand. The plant is projected for 500 gpm with a 70%
recovery.

d. Treatment Facility
' Based on the water quality in the area, a membrane (i.e.,
reverse osmosis) treatment process is required to adequately and efficiently treat the
' water.
The plant should be designed for 1,500 connections at 6,000 gallons/month from the
' District or approximately 300,000 gallons/day. It is anticipated that 100,000 gallons/day
will be immediately sold to SMWA. A 1.5 peak factor will put plant capacity at 600,000
gallons/day. Therefore, the plant will be set up for a 500 gpm flow or approximately
1 700,000 gallons/day. Growth for the next twenty years is expected at 2% per year for a
40% increase or up to 980,000 gallons/day within the next twenty years. This does not
include any industrial prospects for the County. The plant will be set up to be expandable
' in the future to 1,000 gallons/minute or approximately 1.4 mgd.
The plant will be located in a central portion of the County where a discharge location is
' easily accessible. Through discussions with State regulatory agencies, it is anticipated
that the discharge will need to be on the Pasquotank River south of U.S. Highway 158.
The County is in the process of acquiring land on Chantilly Road just south of Camden.
' The RO equipment will be housed in an engineered metal building or block building of
simple design. It is anticipated the building will need to be approximately 3,000 square
' feet. The building would include a sectioned off area for a lab as well as an office for the
operator and a SCADA system.
' Raw water from the wells will be fed through cartridge filters for pretreatment and then
through the RO membranes for the final treatment. Chemical feed will consist of sulfuric
acid for pH adjustment, anti-scalant to prevent membrane fouling, and chlorine
disinfectant. High pressure pumps will be used to force water through the membranes at
pressures ranging from 200-300 psi.
' Based on water quality, it is anticipated the recovery rate for the water plant will be
approximately 70%. Thirty percent of the water will be concentrate discharged into the
Pasquotank River. It is anticipated that a 6-inch water main will be utilized to extend to
' the Pasquotank River at the end of Chantilly Road. The Pasquotank River in this area is
shallow along the edge so it is anticipated a short section of pipe will be directional bored
into waters approximately 3-4 feet deep. This area also is attractive in that there are not a
' lot of wetlands along the edge of the river to create additional environmental issues. A
full environmental assessment will not have to be prepared in that a discharge will be less
than 500,000 gallons/day. At 1,000 gpm plant capacity, it is anticipated that the total

' discharge will be 430,000 gallons/day at buildout. A draft discharge permit has been
received for the water treatment facility and is attached in Appendix A.
u
e. Pumping and Storage
' A 500,000-gallon ground storage tank will be constructed
at the plant site. Finished water from the RO plant will be pumped into the ground
storage tank. Finished water pumps located in the treatment building can draw from the
' ground storage tank to pump into the system and maintain water levels in the remote
elevated storage tanks.
' The SCW&SD has a 250,000 gallon elevated water storage tank that was constructed in
the initial phase. The proposed expansion of the SCW&SD will also consist of an
elevated storage tank which will serve the northern area of the District as well as provide
a buffer tank for withdrawal by SMWA.
f. Cost Estimates
Total construction cost for the project is estimated at
$2,930,000. This cost includes the water source, water production facilities, and the
discharge. Tables 5 and 6 provide a breakdown for the construction cost and a summary
of total project cost including engineering, inspection, and contingencies. Also attached
is Figure 7 which illustrates a layout of the plant site.
' One hundred thousand dollars in equipment has been added which includes a utility bed
vehicle with tools, lab equipment, computers, and spare equipment in the plant. The total
' project cost is estimated at $3,922,493.
The annual operating budget for the SCW&SD and rates are estimated in Table 7.
Expenses are based on a USDA -Rural Development loan/grant with 45% grant versus 0%
grant.

' however, the quality is very good and does not require treatment other than disinfection.
Appendix B contains water quality data available for the well. The Division of Water
' Resources installed a larger pump in this well and pumped it at approximately 600 gpm
for 24 hours with no change in quality and very little drawdown.
' It is possible to install wells for the County in the vicinity of the existing well. These
wells should be used only as a supplement to the Elizabeth City purchased water if
funding for a permanent RO water treatment facility is not possible. Although the wells
' do not require treatment, there is a likely possibility of salt water intrusion from the lower
aquifers if the wells are pumped hard for an extended period of time.
' It is recommended that two wells be installed with approximately 1,500' of separation. A
new 8-inch water main would be needed along SRI 114 to connect to the existing 8-inch
water main on N.C. Highway 343 and fill the existing water tank. As an example — two
' wells running 12 hours per day at 300 gpm could supply 1,500 Camden County
residences at 3,450 gallons per month with a 2.5 peak factor. Test wells are needed to
confirm flow, drawdown, specific capacity and quality.
Table 8 presents a cost estimate for two wells and an 8-inch water main to the existing fl-
inch water main along N.C. Highway 343. Figure 8 illustrates the system layout.
' B. Sewer
Three areas of Camden County are potentially feasible to serve with a
community sewer system. These areas are the Camden Village community and the U.S.
Highway 158 commercial industrial/business area, the Camden Point community area,
' and the South Mills Village community area. The following will present the potential
community sewer system for each area.
' 1. Camden Village Sewer System
' a. Service Area
The Camden Village area is in the central portion of the
' County and includes two major highway corridors: U.S. Highway 158 and N.C.
Highway 343. The corridors bisect the Camden community and their traffic flows offer
ideal commercial and industrial sites if sewer is available. However, without a central
' sewer system, commercial growth cannot occur. The soils in this area have very limited
capacity and will not support septic systems larger than a residential or possibly a very
small business. Prospective businesses such as motels, grocery stores, or restaurants
' cannot locate here because of the lack of sewer facilities. The planning area also includes

the Camden Industrial Park. Plans for this industrial park were developed in 1997 for a
16-parcel site with an average of approximately nine acres per parcel. The County also
' wishes to serve the park with sewer. For many years, the County has encouraged and
promoted commercialization and industry through the U.S. Highway 158 area to create
jobs and to balance the public service cost of residential growth (i.e., schools). Finally,
' this system will serve two schools and potentially a third school.
The project has a potential to serve approximately 450 residential users plus
approximately 30 businesses along the U.S. Highway 158 corridor. In addition to the
potential for future business/commercial development along U.S. Highway 158 and the
Camden County Industrial Park, a preliminary analysis of an expanded service area and
' its feasibility for sewer has been performed. The analysis investigated the service area,
construction costs, potential funding sources, and associated expenditures and revenues.
It is potentially feasible to construct a $4.8 million sewer system with user revenue and
' funding from USDA -Rural Development, Department of Commerce, Rural Center, and
local matches. Figure 9 indicates the potential service area for the Camden Village
Sewer System.
' b. System Description
' The project can be broken into three systems according to
funding availability. The first section is the Camden Village commercial and residential
areas. Figures 10 and 11 illustrate the areas of sewer service to Camden Village
' commercial and residential areas. The system is laid out with a central sewer collection
system with individual grinder pump stations at each residence and force mains along
highway right-of-way. Sewer mains along U.S. Highway 158 will be gravity sewer main
' collection systems. The system contains approximately 57,000 feet of 2-inch through 8-
inch force main, a large collection pump station, 297 connections, and a 400,000 gallon
per day wastewater treatment facility. The wastewater treatment plant should be located
' on Chantilly Road and utilize the same discharge into the Pasquotank River with the RO
water treatment plant. Total project cost is $3,267,000. Potential funding sources are
$2,567,000 from USDA -Rural Development, $200,000 from the Rural Center, and
' $500,000 from Camden County. Tables 9 and 10 contain a summary of costs and
potential funding sources.
! The second service area consists of the U.S. Highway 158 and N.C. Highway 343 area
serving the Camden County schools and the County government complex. The service
area is illustrated in Figure 12. The system contains approximately 5,000 feet of 6-inch
and 8-inch force main, 5,000 feet of 8-inch gravity main, and two large collection pump
station. Total project cost is $511,200 with potential funding of $450,000 from Camden

capital outlay. Tables 11 and 12 contain a summary of costs and potential funding
sources.
The last service area is the Camden Industrial Park and extensions along U.S. Highway
158 and is illustrated in Figure 13. This system would provide gravity sewer along U.S.
Highway 158 and within the Camden Industrial Park. A series of pump stations and
force mains would convey sewer from one gravity section to the next and eventually tie
in to the wastewater treatment facility. The system consists of approximately 13,500 feet
of 6-inch force main, 12,000 feet of gravity sewer, three large collection pump stations,
and a potential of 94 connections. Total project cost is approximately $1,018,800.
Potential funding may be from the Department of Commerce in the amount of $1 million.
Tables 13 and 14 contain a summary of costs and potential funding sources.
C. Budget Analysis
Anticipated operating cost and user cost were investigated
for the Camden Village sewer system assuming funding sources previously discussed and
various grant amounts from USDA -Rural Development. The system was analyzed based
on 80% participation and 100% participation. Projected sewer rates are illustrated in
Tables 15, 16, and 17.
2. Camden Point Sewer System
The residents in this project area have septic tank sewer systems
that offer little protection from pollution. Due to the low elevation of the Camden Point
area and the poor soils, several of the septic systems in the area are failing or in imminent
danger of failing. To improve the quality of life in Camden Point and to provide facilities
to protect the environment, the Camden Point area has received funding to develop a
public sewer system. This section will summarize the proposed project.

a. Project Planning Area
' The project area generally consists of the Camden Point
P J g Y
area along the shores of the Albemarle Sound. Camden Point is located in the south end
' of Camden County, bounded to the North by Broad Creek and the North River, to South
by the Albemarle Sound and to the West by SR1100. Figures 14 and 15 show the
location of the project planning area. The project area is primarily wetlands, forest, water
' and vacant land with residential areas located along the Albemarle Sound.
' b. Environmental Resources
Land use in the project area consists of residential
' properties and open, undisturbed woodlands and marshes. The developed areas are
located along the southern side of Camden Point on the Albemarle Sound. Homes are
constructed of unclassified fill material and are clustered around small canals constructed
' during early phases of development. Currently, no additional homes can be constructed
because permits for septic systems cannot be obtained due to the unfavorable soil
conditions. The entire project area lies within the 100-year flood plain. There are no
' major stream crossings within the project area. However, the lots in the western most
developed area are bisected by a canal. Each lot has a small bridge across the canal.
Crossing these canals will require CAMA and Army Corps of Engineers permits. There
are no significant historical resources, endangered species, or critical habitats in the
Camden Point area.
I
C. Growth Areas and Population Trends
Growth within the Camden Point area has not occurred
' since the early 1970's due to the inability to obtain septic system permits. House counts
performed in July of 1999 showed 53 homes in the area. A Rural Center Grant was
received to serve the existing residents only and to eliminate an imminent health problem
' and environmental impact. Additional growth in Camden Point will occur only if the
sewage facilities are upgraded to handle additional future connections.
' There is a potential of approximately 250 developable lots in Camden Point. Although
most of the lots are primarily wetlands, conversations with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and Division of Coastal Management indicate the lots could support single
' family residences through Nationwide 18 Permits (less than 0.1 acre of fill in wetlands)
and maintaining 75' separation between construction and surface waters.

d. Topography and Geology
Located in the Coastal Plains physiographic province,
Camden Point's topography is nearly level. Elevations vary from 5 feet MSL to a low of
0.5 feet MSL.
e. Soils
Soils in Camden Point consist primarily of Dorovan muck.
This phase of the Dorovan series consists of land with 0 to 1 percent slopes, is frequently
flooded and very poorly drained. Developed areas along the Albemarle Sound are
Dorovan Muck overlaid with Udorthents loam, which is unclassified material consisting
of dredge material created when the canals were dug. Along the northern coast of
Camden Point, areas of Hobonny muck are present, primarily along the edges of Broad
Creek, Little Broad Creek, and the north side of North River Point. This soil is nearly
level, very poorly drained and consists at the surface of highly. decomposed organic
material. West of Camden Point, along SR 1100, are small areas of Altavista sandy loam
which is a fine sandy loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes and is moderately well drained, and
Bojac loamy sand, which is nearly level and gently sloping well drained soils located on
ridges. Both of these soils are cultivated or are natural woodlands.
f. Existing Facilities
The residences in Camden Point are built on small lots with
originally shallow wells and septic tank systems. The shallow wells offered little
protection from pollution. In 1995, a community water system was completed and
funded by USDA -Rural Development serving the SCW&SD. This system is presently
operating and paying for itself. However, due to high water table problems, many of the
septic tank sewer systems in the community are failing, creating a continuing health
hazard. Conversations with the Pasquotank, Currituck, Chowan, Camden (PCCC)
Regional Health District have indicated a steady rise in the number of failing septic tank
systems in the community.
' g. Alternatives Considered
This section will discuss the different types of wastewater
' collection and treatment facilities and their advantages and disadvantages. Site selection
for the treatment facilities is also discussed.
55
' The proposed facilities for Camden Point consists of abandonment of the existing septic
tank systems and the installation of a sewage collection system and sewage treatment
facility. The collection and treatment facility will serve all existing residents that are in
Camden Point.
' Several types of collection systems are evaluated which include gravity sewer mains,
small diameter gravity (SDG) sewer system, and pressure sewer.
' Installation of the collection system will occur within the existing NC Department of
Transportation rights -of -way and private roads in Camden Point. Standard encroachment
agreement forms will be prepared for work within the NCDOT rights -of -way. Sewer
' mains to residents up private roads will follow the existing water main easement.
Due to severe limitations related to location of treatment facilities, soil conditions,
' flooding potential and to the relatively long distance between residential areas,
construction of gravity sewers was eliminated from further consideration. The collection
system presented as most feasible consists of residential grinder pumps that pump to
' common force mains located along the roadside in Camden Point. The effluent will be
pumped to a new treatment facility.
' Several sewage treatment facilities are presented for this project. Due to the proximity of
Albemarle Sound in relationship to Camden Point, surface water discharge is evaluated.
Types of surface water discharge systems considered are lagoons, oxidation ditches,
' mechanical plant, and constructed wetlands systems. Types of land application systems
considered are lagoon systems with subsurface disposal and lagoon systems with spray
irrigation systems onto agricultural crops or forested areas.
' Surface water discharge facilities would be ideally located in the center of Camden Point;
however, discharge into the Albemarle Sound will be difficult to permit. Soil type is not
a major consideration for the site location of a mechanical sewage treatment plant, except
for foundation support for the facility. This type system would require approximately
one acre of land. Lagoon systems would require approximately three acres of land near
' the sound. However, soils on Camden Point are unsuitable for lagoon construction due to
wetness and seepage problems. Special construction measures such as a liner would be
required for lagoons in this area. A mechanical treatment plant would be best located at
' the end of Texas Road with a discharge into the mouth of the Pasquotank River.
Site selection for land application systems would depend on soil conditions. Preliminary
' site selection for spray fields or subsurface disposal can be evaluated based on soil
suitability for septic tank absorption fields and lagoon systems. The most suitable soils
within a feasibly distance of Camden Point consists of Bojac loamy sand located on
56
cultivated fields on the west side of Texas Road (SRI100). For these type systems,
approximately 1 %Z acres of land would be required for the lagoons and twenty acres for
' the spray field to serve 53 hours. Location of spray fields selection is based on the
availability of forested areas or agricultural areas. Local farmer participation is also
considered.
' h. Selected Alternatives
' Collection System
The Camden Point system was designed using grinder
' pumps. Grinder pumps come in one size for this system, which is 2 HP. For a system
with 53 pump stations, research has indicated the maximum daily number of pumps
operating simultaneously is nine. For the force main design, each run of force main was
' sized based on the maximum number of pumps that can be expected to run
simultaneously. The grinder pump station typically comes assembled in a 4' diameter
fiberglass basin. The STEP system was not considered further as new septic tanks would
' be required at each residence because the existing tanks will not meet current codes.
On -off control of the pump stations is accomplished through a float system and control
' panel. The control panel will contain an on -off switch, audible horn and alarm light. In
the case of a pump malfunction, the alarm will signal the homeowner to call the
maintenance department for repairs.
' The homeowner can supply power supply for the pump. In some instances, negotiations
have been held with the local Power Company to supply a service pole at each
' installation and charge the customer a base rate similar to that of a yard light. In the other
situation, the control panel and pump can be wired to the homeowner's home circuit. The
system can be operated from a 120-volt power supply.
' Design flow of the system is based on 269 gallon per day per user. Pump station cycle
time is based on pumping rate and basin size. The force mains are designed to maintain a
' minimum 2-feet/second minimum velocity based on the number of pumps operating
simultaneously. This information is obtained from pump curves and research data from
pump manufacturers. For this type of system, the force mains are designed based on the
' number of pumps running simultaneously at 20 gpm each.

Treatment Facilities
General
Treatment facilities for Camden Point were analyzed using
lagoon systems, spray irrigation, subsurface land application, mechanical treatment
facilities with surface water discharge, oxidation ditches, and wetlands. Each of these
alternatives is discussed in the following sections. Sizing of the facilities is based on 269
gallons per day per residence, or a total of 15,000 gallons per day.
A mechanical treatment facility would consist of a 0.015-MGD package type treatment
facility using extended aeration and tertiary treatment. Primary treatment would consist
'. of an equalization chamber, aeration chamber, a clarifier and sludge holding chamber.
Basic designs consist of a donut configuration with the extended aeration tank and
digestor around the parameter and the clarifier in the center. Tertiary treatment would
consist of duplex filter beds, clearwell, and wastewater chamber. Disinfection would
consist of chlorination/dechlorination.
A mechanical plant and constructed wetlands were considered options for treatment to
surface discharge. It may be possible to locate a constructed wetlands facility on
' agricultural land which was converted from wetlands prior to the 1976 Clean Water
Management Act. The discharge could be through a natural wetland drainage way to the
Pasquotank River.
Land Application
' Pretreatment will be required prior to land application. In
small communities, lagoons are usually the most practical forms of preapplication
treatment and storage. They are relatively easy to operate, require minimal maintenance,
' are less expensive than many other types of treatment, and eliminate the need for separate
facilities. Lagoon systems offer consistency, reliability, flexibility, ease of operation and
maintenance, and low cost. Generally, lagoons are constructed with one to three cells.
Typical applications are with two cells and will be utilized in the design analysis of this
report. The first cell is designed as a facultative cell with a BOD loading of about 100-
pounds/acre day. The water level in this cell is usually constant and can be controlled
' with an adjustable overflow weir. The final cell can be used for storage and flow
equalization.
' Typical BOD5 for medium strength wastewater is 220 mg/1. Using the flow rate of 0.015
MGD, BOD strength of 220 mg/l, and a BOD loading rate for the lagoon of 100
pounds/acre day, the required size of the lagoon system is 0.275 acres. Additional
1
58
' storage is required for periods when the spray fields cannot be applied to. For this system
30 days storage is provided. Utilizing a 0.275-acre lagoon with a maximum depth of 9.5'
' would provide 30 days of storage.
Land application methods were analyzed using subsurface and surface application
' methods. It was quickly realized that subsurface application using nitrification fields was
not feasible due to the length of drain tiles required. With an average loading rate of 0.3
gallons/day/square foot, a total of approximately 16,600 linear feet of 4" drain tile would
be required at an estimated construction cost for the nitrification field alone of $830,000.
Spray irrigation systems were next analyzed.
' The first step in designing the land treatment portion of the system is to select a hydraulic
loading rate. The most suitable sites for land application treatment are in the areas of
Bojac loamy sand. This soil has a permeability range from 6" to 20" per hour. Whenever
' a range of the permeability rate is given, the lower end of the range should be used for
primary effluent, the mid -zone for pond effluent, and the upper portion of the range for
secondary effluent.
-, Site selection for the spray irrigation system is based on the Bojac series soils. The mid -
zone permeability rate for the Bojac loamy sand series soils is 4"/hour. This is equal to a
' hydraulic loading rate of 9 cm/week or 3.5"/week. However, past experience and
conversations with specialists have dictated that the maximum loading rate that should be
used in this area is 0.5"/week, requiring 9.15 wetted acres for 53 hours. Including a 150'
' buffer zone around the fields, a total of 20 acres is necessary. The sizing of the spray
application facilities includes capacity for rainfall that will collect in the lagoons and a 1-
day rest period between applications to each field.
' Figure 16 illustrates the site location plan based on the Bojac Soil series. Grasses are the
primary crops that can be grown on wastewater spray fields; however, the land may be
I
leased from a farmer to grow crops which are not consumed raw.
Tables 18-21 illustrate cost summaries and projected rates based on 53 users and a Rural
' Center grant in which Camden County will have to finance 10% of the project cost with
loan money.

i. Recommended System
Based on the above discussions it is recommended that a
pressure sewage collection system using residential grinder pumps be installed with
sewage being pumped to a new sewage lagoon and land application system for treatment.
The pressure sewage collection system is chosen based on the low initial capital cost and
ease of installation. A land application system was chosen for treatment based on its
competitive construction costs with the other treatment facilities, low operation and
maintenance costs, simplicity of operation and no -discharge to surface waters.
' A site evaluation has been performed by Dr. Bob Rubin of N.C. State University of the
bojac soils ridge along Texas Road. It was determined there is a suitable area of soils
approximately 300' wide by 2,500' long for a spray field. Based on the previously
discussed hydraulic loading rates, this system will support up to a maximum of 75
residences. Therefore, any growth will be limited with this system.
' A consideration of Camden County is to upsize the system to allow a certain amount of
future growth. However, this growth must also be controlled due to its environmental
impacts to the area. Due to wetland restrictions, it may be feasible to establish a sewer
service area consisting of the existing platted lots on the south side of Sailboat Road.
Lots on the north side of Sailboat Road are separated from high ground by a large
drainage canal and therefore are not buildable due to wetland restrictions. Therefore, the
' potential buildout of the sewer service area is 250 residences. Further investigations
should be conducted with regulatory agencies regarding other potential treatment
facilities such as mechanical plants with surface water discharges or constructed
' wetlands.
2. South Mills Sewer System
' This system would potentially provide service to 600-700 homes
and businesses and anticipated new businesses in the South Mills Village. The sewer
' system would allow for commercial redevelopment in the historic canal village. The
collection system would consist of a mix of gravity and pressure sewer collection systems
located in the most populated areas of the Village. The treatment facility could be
located near the existing water plant and discharged onto the Pasquotank River.
Anticipated cost for the system is approximately $4 million. Funding could be through a
mixture of USDA -Rural Development, Community Development Block Grant, Rural
' Economic Development Center, and local funds. More detailed analysis is required to
determine the system layout and expected revenues and expenditures.

V. CONCLUSIONS
It was the intention of this study to present a growth management plan through the
development of feasible water and sewer facilities.
It is feasible to serve a major portion of the County with a rural water distribution system
and construction of a water treatment facility. Key notes of the water system would be a
' large diameter trunk main along U.S. Highway 158 to serve the commercial/business
development and a potential industrial park at Belcross. A large diameter trunk main is
also needed along N.C. Highway 343 north of Camden Village and U.S. Highway 17 to
Virginia to support the large potential of residential development in the northern portion
of the County.
'
Only a few areas in the County are feasible and have the need for a central sewer system.
Most areas of the County can support continued growth with on -site septic tank systems.
The Camden Village area and the U.S. Highway 158 corridor are restricted from growth
and development due to unsuitable soils for septic tank systems. Installation of a central
sewer in this area will allow desired business and commercial growth. The installation of
a central sewer system in this area will allow desired business and commercial growth.
The installation of a central sewer system in the Camden Point area is needed to eliminate
an environmental health hazard due to failing sewer systems of the existing residences as
well as to allow a controlled growth. Finally, South Mills Village has the population
'
density to support a central sewer system if so desired.

Camden County, North Carolina
HUA No.: CM9901— Permits
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
'
We have received a copy of the Draft NPDES Permit for the proposed Camden County
reverse osmosis water treatment facility. We would like to offer the following comments
'
in regards to the permit.
Three of the limits for metals are below the detection limits of laboratories with which we
'
are familiar. These metals are listed as follows:
Metals Draft Limits (ppb) Lowest Detection Limit (ppb)
Beryllium 0.117 1.0
'
Cyanide 1.0 5.0
Mercury 0.025 0.2
We would appreciate your assistance in this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact
myself at any time with comments or questions.
