Sanitary Sewer Overflows - December 2019
Collection System Permit No. WQCS00054
Union County Collection System
Union County
Dear Mr. Watson:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report's submitted by
Union County. The Division's Mooresville Regional Office concludes that the Union County violated Permit Condition
I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00054 by failing to effectively manage, maintain, and operate their collection system so
that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or surface waters and the SSO constituted making an
outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is required by G.S.
143-215.1.
The Mooresville Regional Office is providing the Union County an opportunity to provide evidence and justification
as to why the Union County should not be assessed a civil penalty for the violation(s) that are summarized below:

This Notice of Violation / Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/NOI) is being issued for the noted violation. Pursuant
to G.S. 143-215,6A, a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars (525,000.00) may be assessed
against any person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of any
permit issued pursuant to G.S, 143-215,1,
This office requests that you respond to this Notice, in writing, within 10 business days of its
receipt. In your response, you should address the causes of non-compliance, remedial actions, and all other
actions taken to prevent the recurrence of similar situations. The response to this correspondence will be
considered in this process. Enforcement decisions will also be based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface
waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills or recreational area closures. Other factors
considered in determining the amount of the civil penalty are the violator's history of non-compliance, the cost of
rectifying the damage, whether the spill was intentional and whether money was saved by non-compliance.

Sanitary Sewer Overflows — December 2019
Collection System Permit — WQCS00054
Union County
Dear Mr, Basinger.
Union County has received the NOV referenced above for collection system overflows.
Explanations of the overflows were on the BIMS Overflow Reporting Forms submitted by Union
County Public Works (UCPW) to the NCDEQ, However, we have added a few additional facts
in the explanations below,
Incident # Date Location
201901892 12/13/2019 4015 Sardis Church Road
201901955 12/23/2019 4015 Sardis Church Road
Response:
The SSO listed in this section were due to I&I introduction during heavy rains and flash flooding The system
associated with this area was inundated with floodwaters and increased flows at CCWRF. The new CCWRF EQ
system was being utilized to attenuate peak flows experienced during storm events, however, during construction of
the new gravity system an existing 8-inch gravity main located on the north side of Sardis Church Road was thought
to be abandoned and as such was not reconnected to the new gravity system, This line is connected to a 12-inch line
on the south side of Sardis Church Road, however, without the parallel 8-inch line available to convey flow the
collection system experienced a severe hydraulic condition The 8-inch line has been connected to avoid this
restriction in the future. Plans are being developed with our CIP team to resolve to improve general hydraulics in this
area,
Union County Public Works has underwent a comprehensive Master Plan (Black & Veatch) and improvements
strategy in efforts to better identify areas of improvement within the Crooked Creek basir-r Efforts such as flow
monitoring studies (CDMSmith/Hydrostructures and Frazier Engineering) to identify areas of inflow and infiltration,
capacity assessments of the CCWRF and associated lift stations, lift station assessments to
identify aging infrastructure, among others,

As a result of these studies, UCPW has developed a GIP plan to address certain areas of concern.
A significant plant upgrade at the Crooked Creek WRF was completed including new headworks, a 3MG EQ
basin, and process improvements. Total cost is $7175M project also included a new 10.3 MGD influent PS,
new headworks containing new bar screens, compactor, and grit removal/dewatering, and relocation of
1200' of 18" gravity sewer.
• I&I flow studies have been conducted by CDMSmith (Hydrostructures) and Frazier Engineering. These
studies have narrowed the basin into concentrated sub -basins to target I&I reduction. The intended
approach is a find -fix method to utilize funding efficiently and consistently. The first initial 2017 target area is
southwest of CCWRF in the Indian Trail area south of Hwy 74, west to the Union/Mecklenburg county line.
Additional areas for I&l abatement are being evaluated.
Following the spill on 12/13/2020, a team was developed from our maintenance staff to optimize the amount flow into
the new EQ. By the efforts of staff we were able to adjust and refine total volume entering the EQ during high peak.
intensity situations. Further refnement is underway.

201901956 12/23/2019 2722 Waxhaw Marvin Road
Response:
The SSO listed in this section were due to I&I introduction during heavy rains and flash flooding. The sanitary sewer
overflow occurred at the Marvin School Pump Station, out of a sanitary sewer manhole. We suspect the inflow is a
result of a recent new development that is under construction, Further investigations are underway including smoke
testing the entire basin.

Response:
The SSO listed in this section were due to I&I introduction during heavy rains and flash flooding. The sanitary sewer
overflow occurred at the 21/25 Pump Station, out of a sanitary sewer manhole. This pump station is at 80% design for
replacement. Funding has been allocated for this project. I&I efforts are being designed including flow monitoring,
pipe lining, and manhole rehab.
UCPW also has an aggressive Capital Improvement Program throughout the next 5 years. The
projects include:
Crooked Creek Basin Improvements - $23,900,000
Suburban Estates PS and FM - $1,000,000.00
Waxhaw Interceptor—$5,400,000
WW PS Improvements - $3,500,000

UCPW's current CP projects are also ongoing with projects including'
Blythe Creek Sewer Improvements - $6,200,000
), Forest Park PS Replacement & Interceptor Improvements $3,345,000
Crooked Creek l&I Study & Remediation - $476,000
Union County Public Works continues to invest funds into SSES work, capital improvements,
maintenance and operations to improve the wastewater collection system. If further information
or details regarding the CCWRF Improvements, as well as, the CIP projects listed above are
required, please feel free to contact Greg Morgan, Superintendent/ORC, at 704-289-3288 or
