Subject: Final Approval of Pretreatment Program
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority
NPDES Permit Number: NC0020567
Surry County
Dear Ms. Johnston:
The Division of Water Quality has received the January 18, 2013 request for approval of
a Pretreatment Program. The Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority has successfully completed the
required activities established by the Division's Pretreatment, Emergency Response and
Collection Systems (PERCS) Unit for the development of a Division of Water Quality approved
Pretreatment Program. With consideration of the successful completion of the required activities
and the public comments received on the delegation request, the Pretreatment Program for the
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority is approved as of March 7, 2013.
Your NPDES permit contains pretreatment program requirements in Part IV (Special
Conditions for Municipal Facilities) under Section D (Pretreatment Programs) that are an
important and enforceable part of your Delegated Pretreatment Program.
The Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority's Pretreatment Program is considered to be a
Modified Pretreatment Program. Modified Pretreatment Programs must send in a Pretreatment
Annual Report (PAR) or call to schedule a meeting with the Division's Pretreatment Staff by
March 1st of every year. The compliance status for each industrial user must be judged for each
six-month period (January 1 — June 30 and July 1— December 31), and appropriate enforcement
actions initiated in accordance with the Enforcement Response Plan approved by the Division.
