April 2022--NPDES Permit NC0042528-Page 1

Section 1. Facility Overview:
This facility is a minor facility (flow< 1 MGD) discharging 100% domestic wastewater with a design
capacity of 0.036 MGD. This WWTP utilizes the following treatment components:
• Influent pumps
• Bar screen
• Equalization Basin
• Dual aeration basins (mechanical air)
• Settling basins
• Aerobic Digester
• Chlorine disinfection equipment with dechlorination
• UV disinfection
After receiving an Authorization to Construct(ATC)permit from the Division, the owner can construct
and operate additional facilities needed to meet the 0.05 MGD flow.
NH3 limits for phase 0.036 MGD and phase 0.05 MGD are based on the QUAL2E model from the 1996
renewal (see attached 1996 wasteload allocation). A QUAL2E modeling analysis was completed for the
Haw River from Rocky Fork Creek to Saxapahaw Dam, but does not include this discharge which is
below the dam. Therefore, the limits were kept at existing loading and no lower than other dischargers in
the area.
Section 2. Compliance History (January 2017—February 2022):
• One NOD for TSS limit violation in September 2018.
• Two NODs for BODS limit violation in September 2018 and October 2018.
• One NOV for TSS limit violation in July 2021.
Section 3. Changes from previous permit to draft:
• Added facility grade in A. (1), A. (2), and A. (3)
• Updated eDMR footnote in A. (1), A. (2), A. (3) and language in A. (5)
• Updated nutrient reopener condition in A. (4)
Section 4. Comments received on draft permit:
• No comment received on draft permit.
Section 5. Changes from draft to final:
• No change to final permit.

Wasteload Allocation Summary
(approach taken, correspondence with region, EPA, etc.)
This Fact Sheet includes recommended limits for the proposed expansion of this facility. A
QUAL2E modeling analysis was completed for the Haw River from Rocky Fork Creek to
Saxapahaw Dam, but does not include this discharge which is located below the dam. The
model has not completed for this portion of the Haw River. Therefore, this expansion will be
recommended with limits kept at existing loading and no lower than other dischargers in the
area, (i.e. Graham and Burlington -East). Note that for 0.050 mgd, facility can chose between
12 mg/1 BOD5 and 4 mg/1 NH3-N OR 9 mg/J BOD; and 6 mg/1 NI1-N (summer limits).
Due to the water quality limits recommended, instream monitoring is also recom}entied ipi f

Request Region input as to whether a fecal coliform and hence residual chlorine limit(s) are
needed. According to dilution, these would not be limited, but it is highly unusual
to have limits more stringent that Secondary with no fecal coliform limit.
*** Request Region input as to whether an Oil & Grease limit would be appropriate as meal
preparation will take place at this new facility.
Parameter(s) affected: Limits Changes Due To:
BOD5 , NH3N, and dissolved oxygen reflect limits for oxygen consuming wastes in area
Parameter(s) are water quality limited. For some parameters, the available load capacity of the
immediate receiving water will be consumed. This may affect future water quality based effluent
limitations for additional dischargers within this portion of the watershed.
OR
No parameters are water quality limited, but this discharge may affect future allocations.

Dear Mr. Jordon:
After reviewing your proposed permit limits it is believed
that the present wastewater treatment plant will be unable to meet
the limits. You will need to have an engineer to evaluate the
system for adequacey. Once this is done and we receive a copy of
the report we will then be able to issue the permit. Below, for
your engineer's use, are the proposed limits:

1990: Reissued noting no fecal limit necessary and new requirement for total phosphorus monitoring.
Factory is shut down and is currently discharging A/C condensate. The Jordan Family has purchased the property and is planning to
convert it into apartments and condos.
Basin Plan
Doesn't outline any specific recommendations - the model that exists, ends just upstream of this discharge at the Saxapahaw dam.
Table 6.3 (pp 6-11 and 6-12) indicates a modeling study is necessary for expansions - I don't know how relevant this will be for such a
small discharge to this waterbody....
An Alternatives Analysis is required previous to an expansion. Dave Goodrich has pointed out that one was done previous to this
request, (1 didn't find notes in the file referring to this). The only alternative to date for this facility would be connection to
Burlington - South, NC0023876. Susan Robson contacted the Region and they determined that connection to that facility would be
too far and pose too high an economic prohibition.
Jason Doll has modeled a proposed discharge for a Chatham County Regional plant. We looked into recommending connection to this
facility when available, but it was also too far away to be economically feasible.
DMRs
Facility not submitting flows for 1995.
Flows previous to this are well below permitted capacity and most probably are that of the Dixie Yarn facility.
Values for conventional parameters, (including nutrients) are very low.
No Increased Loading for Expansions w/ a cap at 12 / 4 to keep consistent with upstream discharges
[ Burlinton-East (12 mgd) and Graham (3.5 mgd) which are upstream discharges, (above Saxapahaw dam) each have limits of

MEMORANDUM

Rapid Assessment Group
From: Susan 5(2,
Subject: NC0042528 B. Everett Jordan Family LLC
I spoke with Dave Goodrich and Jim Johnston (WSO) regarding an
alternatives analysis for this facility. Dave said that the facility should have
already done an analysis when the permittee first applied for a permit. Since
this facility is not discharging into a "zero flow" stream, the only analysis to
be considered at this point was connection to a POTW. Jim indicated that no
alternatives are available, which includes connection. Therefore, I have
decided not to ask for a formal alternatives analysis from the permittee.

1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)1
Effective December 21, 2016, the permittee shall report 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 DEQ / Division of Water Resources / Water Quality Permitting Section
ATTENTION: Central Files
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 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, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by
the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address
above. See "How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR 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.
Starting on December 21, 2020, the permittee must electronically report the
following compliance monitoring data and reports, when applicable:

Permit NC0042528
• Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
• Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
• Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.
The permittee may seek an electronic reporting waiver from the Division (see "How to
Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below).
2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1)(9), the permittee must identify the initial
recipient at the time of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the
EPA's website resources to identify the initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES-regulated facilities
means the entity (EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES
program) that is the designated entity for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40
CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic
reporting tool for each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions
on how to access and use the appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as
well. Information on EPA's NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule is found at:
http://www2.epa.gov/compliance/final-national-pollutant-discharge-elimination-
system-npdes-electronic-reporting-rule.
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting
Requirements" section above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division.
To obtain an electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic
reporting waiver request to the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting
waivers 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 submitting monitoring data and reports. The duration of a temporary waiver
shall not exceed 5 years and shall thereupon expire. At such time, monitoring data
and reports shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re-
applies for and is granted a new temporary electronic reporting waiver by the
Division. Approved electronic reporting waivers are not transferrable. Only
permittees with an approved reporting waiver request may submit monitoring data
and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the approved reporting waiver
request is effective.
Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver
are found on the following web page:
http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr

Certification. Any person submitting an electronic DMR using the state's eDMR
system shall make the following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER
STATEMENTS OF CERTIFICATION WILL BE ACCEPTED:
"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared
under my direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that
qualified personnel properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on
my inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or those persons directly
responsible for gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of
my knowledge and belief, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are
significant penalties for submitting false information, including the possibility of fines
and imprisonment for knowing violations."
5. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.)1
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including
eDMR submissions. These records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at
least 3 years from the date of the report. This period may be extended by request of
the Director at any time [40 CFR 122.41].
