Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Single Family Wastewater Treatment System
Permit No. NCG550708
Person County
Dear Nls. Willis:
On November 5, 2020 vlitch Hayes from the Raleigh Regional Office visited your single-family
residence (SFR) wastewater treatment system to evaluate compliance with file above permit to
discharge wastewater. The checked boxes below show what conditions were noted at your facility:
❑ In compliance: You are reminded to regularly maintain the chlorine disinfection and
dechlorination systems, have the effluent sampled once a year, and have the septic tank
pumped out every 3 to 5 years, Your good record of operation and meeting the permit
requirements is highly commended.
❑ Your home is improperly plumbed: Some of the wastewater discharges are going
directly to the environment without first passing tllrou�4I1 the treatment system. This must
be corrected immediately. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 days of receipt
of this letter_ttat_s.tates your Plan for correctina, this deficiency- The work is to be
completed within the next 3 months.
❑ Disinfection: Your system is Iacking disinfection, either chlorine tablets or a UV light
system. New rules put into place on August I, 2007 require all SFR systems to have a
means of disinfection (and dechlorination when chlorine tablets are used to disinfect, if the
system Nvas installed since that date). Since your system had no disinfection, the
installation is to include a chlorine tablet dispenser, a contact chamber capable of providing
a minimum 30-minute contact time, and another tablet dispenser that will hold
dechlorination tablets. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 calendar days of
receipt of this letter that states your plail for correcting, this deficient .
® Treatment tablets missing or are it rong kind: You are responsible for always having
chlorine tablets and dechlorination tablets (if a required part of your system) in place. They
must be the kind for wastewater treatment and not for swimming pools.
❑ Dechlorination: Your system was installed after August 1, 2007, so must have a means
of dechlorination located downstream of the chlorinator and its contact chamber. See
Disinfection paragraph above. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 calendar
days of receipt of this letter stating your plan for correcting this deficiency.
® Pumping the septic tank— The septic tank should be pumped out every 3 to 5 years. A
pumping company can check the status periodically and determine when pumping is
required.
M Failure to analyze the effluent: The effluent that is discharged from your system must
be analyzed once each year. See Part [(A) of your pennit about his requirement. A list of
NC certified laboratories that provide this service was left at your residence during the
inspection. Make arrangements for sampling to be carried out within the next 3 months.
and submit results to this office within 3 weeks after the sampling has been done.
[I Locations of treatment units are unknoNNn: Determine this and report to this office
within 30 days of receipt of this letter with a sketch or map.
❑ Other:
If you have questions or comments about this inspection or the requirements to take corrective
action, please contact Nlitch 1-iayes at 919-791-4200. Licensed plumbers should be used to make
plumbing changes within your ]ionic. Contractors for installing disinfection or other equipment
may be found in the Yellow Pages under Environmental Consultants.
