2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. These samples shall be
representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
3/Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of
the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et.
seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is
not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day

consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Week
The period from Sunday through the following Saturday.
Calendar Quarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 mL in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval
between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite
samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period
of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with
the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow
measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the
preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at
the treatment system, or

(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a
constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may only be
used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following restrictions also apply:
➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters
➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent grab
samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period.

monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the
"daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also
"Composite Sample," above.)

to the minimum detection or lower reporting level of the procedure. If no approved methods are determined
capable of achieving minimum detection and reporting levels below permit discharge requirements, then the most
sensitive (method with the lowest possible detection and reporting level) approved method must be used.
Penalties for Tampering
The CWA provides that any person who falsifies, tampers with, or knowingly renders inaccurate, any monitoring
device or method required to be maintained under this permit shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not
more than $10,000 per violation, or by imprisonment for not more than two years per violation, or by both. If a
conviction of a person is for a violation committed after a first conviction of such person under this paragraph,
punishment is a fine of not more than $20,000 per day of violation, or by imprisonment of not more than 4 years,
or both [40 CFR 122.411.

Interference
Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which
causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the
Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in
compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H
.0903 (b)(14)]
Pass Through
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with
discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of
the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge
permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)]
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization.
This defmition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal
sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T
.0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government
organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges
to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW
treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of
POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)]
"Significant Industrial User" or "SIU"
An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(33)]:
1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary,
noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or
2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted
flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS
and ammonia; or
3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or
4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely
affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent
limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options;
5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and
conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a
Significant Industrial User (SIU); or
6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a
non -significant categorical Industrial User.
Section B. Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs)
Version 1110912011.1

ES Permit Standard Conditions
Page 15 of 18
All POTWs must provide adequate notice to the Director of the following [40 CFR 122.42(b)]:

2. Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced by an indirect discharger as
influent to that POTW at the time of issuance of the permit.
3. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality and quantity of effluent
introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact that may result from the change of the quantity or
quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW.
Section C. Municipal Control of Pollutants from Industrial Users.
1. Effluent limitations are listed in Part I of this permit. Other pollutants attributable to inputs from Industrial Users
discharging to the POTW may be present in the Permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information
becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent
limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality
standards.
2. Prohibited Discharges
a. The Permittee shall develop and enforce their Pretreatment Program to implement the prohibition against the
introduction of pollutants or discharges into the waste treatment system or waste collection system which

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. These samples shall
be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
3/Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of
the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et.
seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
B ass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which
is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Week
The period from Sunday through the following Saturday.
Calendar Quarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour
period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period
-with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling
point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and
Version 712009

NPDES Permit Standard
Page 2 of 18
totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method
may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following
restrictions also apply:
➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters
➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent
grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect
effluent grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-hour
sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean
concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all
grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the
permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations
prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that
requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events.
3 Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended;; 33 USC 1251, et. seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which
is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Quarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous:'a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24.hour
period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period
with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling
point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and
totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1 /24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary
less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart
during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method
requires prior approval by the Director.

intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the
system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor
the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar. day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean
concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all
grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.3)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling'shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the
permit. The Division expects that sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other
disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week
for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).
DWQ or "the Division"
The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
EMC
The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
Facility Closure
The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility, or the cessation of all activities that require coverage
under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded.
Geometric Mean
The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of
calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]'D shall be considered =1.
Grab Sample
Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be
collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream
samples).
Hazardous Substance
Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311. of the Clean Water Act.
Instantaneous flow measurement

Hi Charles,
I met with the operator, Keith Bond and did a sampling inspection at Waterford Place this week.
Everything looks good. Attached is that inspection report.
I talked to John Vanderschaaf, Chairman of the Utilities Committee for the POA, to verify everything.
Here's what I would change:
Permit: The actual location of the WWTP is off of Music Camp Road (not 10 Lakeview Court).
The 10 Lakeview Court address is the location of the clubhouse and where John gets the mail.
Supplement to permit cover page: see attachment
Continue to operate ... 0.023 MGD wastewater system with 70 individual septic tanks, influent lift
station with duplex pumps, dual alarms and
emergency generator; dosing tank with alternating siphons; dual surface sand filters, dosed
alternately; tablet chlorinator;1000 gallon chlorine
contact chamber; tablet dechlorinator; and effluent concrete step cascade.
Tracking Slip (BIMS): see attachment
The permitted flow is incorrectly listed as 46,000 gpd. It should be 23,000 gpd.
I discussed with John the implications of expanding the plant beyond 23,000 gpd. I told him that if that happened, the
existing sand filter system may NOT be able to meet the monthly average ammonia limits of 2.0 mg/I in the summer &
4.0 mg/1 in the winter.
I feel that everything else in the attached documents is accurate.
ARO recommends renewal of this permit.

discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report
(eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and submitted
electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter monitoring data and
submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state's eDMR application is
compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic Reporting Regulation (CROMERR), permittees will be
required to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state electronically using eDMR and will be required
to complete the eDMR submission by printing, signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the
computer -printed eDMR to the following address:
NC DENR / Division of Water Resources / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility being
physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband access, then a
temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted and discharge
monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, L 1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by
the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be submitted in
writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the facility would be
required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months
and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the
permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following web page:
http:t/portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/adinin/bog/ipu/edinr
Regardless of the submission method, the first DAM is due on the last day of the month following the
issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on.the last day of the month following the
commencement of discharge.

Dear Mr., Vanderschaaf:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection conducted
on January 24, 2013. The chlorine and the declorination tablet feed systems were in
good shape but the number of tablets did not seem to be adequate to last the duration
between operators visits. The operator must insure that the tablet feed systems are
stocked to sufficiently maintain the appropriate levels of chlorine and declorination at all
times. The inspector requests that the operator note in the logbook when tablets are
added to the system. No violations of permit requirements or applicable regulations were
observed during this visit.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and
comments. If you or your staff have any questions, please call me at 828-296-4500.

This was an unannounced inspection. The inspector was able to look over the site and review the -
operator's log book. The sand filter appeared to function well. There was some frozen water on the surface
of the sand filter, the result of low temperature the night before. The chlorine and the declorination tablet
feed systems were in good shape but the number of tablets did not seem to be adequate to last the duration
between operators visits. The operator must insure that the tablet feed systems are stocked to sufficiently
maintain the appropriate levels of chlorine and declorination at all times. The inspector requests that the

FACILITY DESCRIPTION:
Wastewater Treatment Plant:
The Waterford Place Property Owners Association WWTP is a class I facility and rated as a 0.023
MGD system with individual septic tanks; influent lift station with duplex pumps, dual alarms
and emergency generator; dosing tank with alternating siphons; dual surface sand filters, dosed
alternately; tablet chlorinator; 1000 gallon chlorine contact chamber; tablet dechlorinator; and
effluent concrete step cascade.
Expansion permit:
After receiving an Authorization to Construct, there is an expansion permit for flows above
0.023 MGD. That permit includes monthly average ammonia limits of 2.0 mg/I in the summer & 4.0
mg/I in the winter.
Collection System:
The collection system serves 62 homes and 15 condos (total of 77 residences) and a clubhouse.
There are 70 individual septic tanks. The influent lift station has duplex pumps with dual
alarms. There is an emergency generator, which self tests weekly on Fridays.
Sludge Management:
Removal of excess solids by a septage hauler from the 70 individual septic tanks is done on a 6
to 7 year cycle. The dosing tank is pumped when the sludge reaches a level of 4 inches.
PERMIT / INSPECTION / LOG:
A review of the files indicates that the last compliance evaluation inspection was conducted on
1-25-2007 by Wanda Frazier.
The permit expires on 9-30-2010. Your renewal request was received by the Division on 3-24-2010.
The daily operator log was present on -site and had good notation of daily events and field
testing data.
TREATMENT UNITS:
The sand filter beds were free of vegetation and looked good.
Sand filter bed # 1 (on the left):
Sand had been added to level out the filter bed, as a result of the scum layer being
periodically removed to improve even distribution and increase the treatment efficiency.
Page # 2

Permit: NCO055905
Inspection Date: 06/15/2010
Owner - Facility: Waterford Place WWTP
Inspection Type: Compliance Sampling
A new concrete wall was also constructed to support the distribution pipes and laterals.
The old wall had deteriorated and collapsed. This bed is in full sun and appears to be
operating very well, as no vegetation was present or any ponding observed.
Sand filter bed # 2 (on the right):
Over time, the scum contaminated sand layers have been periodically removed to increase
the treatment efficiency, however replacement sand has not been added back. This
replacement sand is needed to maintain even distribution of flow and improve treatment
efficiency.
In the past, a row of trees were planted between the WWTP, the row of pine trees and
the residences to provide an aesthetic buffer. Now that the non -pine trees are well
established, it is recommended that the pine trees be removed. These pine trees block
the wind and sun on this bed and cause the pine needles to be deposited onto the sand
filter bed. Removal of the trees would provide full sun onto this bed, increase air
circulation and prevent pine needles from accumulating on the bed and improve the
overall treatment efficiency.
EFFLUENT:
The effluent data was as follows:
Dissolved Oxygen = 7.17 mg/I Note: The effluent minimum DO limit is 6.0 mg/I.
pH = 6.8 units
Temperature = 22.0 degrees Celsius
Chlorine = <20 ug/I
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE / EFFLUENT / SUMMARY:
Mr. Keith Bond, ORC, assisted in the inspection and appears to be operating and maintaining the
facility very well.
The effluent was clear and appeared to be in compliance with permit limits.
Effluent samples were collected on the day of the inspection. If the sample results are
non -compliant, a separate letter will be sent.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE ANNUAL REPORT:
The System Performance Annual Reports have not been received by the Division.
Please submit the 2009 Annual Report as soon as possible.
Note: According to the Clean Water Act of 1999 (House Bill 1160), the legal requirement for submittal
of the System Performance Annual Report is as follows:
Page # 3

Permit: NCO055905
Inspection Date: 06/15/2010
Owner - Facility: Waterford Place WWTP
Inspection Type: Compliance Sampling
The owner or operator of any wastewater treatment works or wastewater collection systems that
treats or collects primarily domestic or municipal waste, must provide an Annual Report to its
users or customers and to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources that summarizes
the treatment work's and collection system's performance over a 12 month period.
The System Performance Annual Report is due no later than 60 days after the end of the reporting
period.
Report Format:
The following is provided as guidance to assist you in meeting this aspect of the new reporting
requirements. The law states the above mentioned report shall summarize the performance of the
treatment works or collection system and state the extent to which any terms of its permit,
federal laws, or any State laws, regulations or rules related to the protection of water quality
have been violated. In order to meet the spirit of this law, it is strongly suggested that, at
a minimum, the reports contain the following information:
I. General Information
• Name of regulated entity and county
• Responsible entity, person or contact with phone number or address
• Listing of applicable permit(s) — NPDES and Collection System permits, etc.
• Description of collection system and treatment system or process
II. Performance
• Description of overall 12-month performance, noting the applicable review period (year),
highlights and deficiencies.
• By month, list of the number and type of any violations of permit conditions, environmental
regulations or environmental laws, including (but not limited to):
Permit Limit Violations — list by month and type
Monitoring and Reporting Violations — i.e. NOVs and Civil Assessments
(Illegal) Bypass of treatment facilities*
Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs)* - Dates of SSOs*, Press Releases & Public Notices
(*For the purpose of the System Performance Annual Report, please condense
your Annual Report to include: the estimated total monthly volumes and
locations of events in which more than 1,000 gallons of waste reached surface
waters.)
Page # 4

Permit: NC0055905
Owner- Facility: Waterford Place WWTP
Inspection Date: 06/15/2010 Inspection Type: Compliance Sampling
• Description of any known environmental impact of violations
• Description of corrective measures taken to address violations or deficiencies
III. Notification
• Statement as to how users or customers have been provided access to the report.
IV. Certification
• Statement by a responsible official certifying the report is accurate and complete.
Note: It shall be left to the individual applicable entities to decide both how much detail above
minimum they wish to provide in the report and how they will provide the report to their users
or customers. This law was established to provide a mechanism for public oversight (and
hopefully, to instill public confidence). Those entities that fall under the scope of this part
of the law are encouraged to be forthcoming in their report and they should provide its readers
a contact where they may view more detailed information.
To satisfy the Departmental reporting requirement, three copies of the report should be
submitted to the following address:

Temperature = 8.0 degrees Celcius
Chlorine = 1.2 mg/I
pH = 6.5 units
Keith Bond, the contract operator, was on -site during the inspection.
The log book was present on -site and had good notation of daily events.
The effluent appeared to be clear, indicating compliance with permit limits.
This facility appears to be well operated and maintained.
The operator is doing an excellent job.
Plans to install a dechlorination unit are proceeding in order to meet the March 1, 2007 deadline. At that
time, a 28 ug/I total residual chlorine limit will go into effect.
