Weaver, Charles From: Carter, Jenifer Sent: Friday, February 18, 2011 8:15 AM To: Weaver, Charles Subject: RE: NC0070033 - request to modify permit. I don't see a problem with it. The compliance record over the last 5 plus years has been great. You could compromise and go with twice weekly since they have to do that for other at least one other parameter, if I recall without looking at the file. The aging ORC wants to retire and is finding it difficult to find someone to care for such a simple system requiring daily visits, just for temperature at that. I say reduce it to once or twice weekly. Jenifer Before printing this email. please consider your budget and the environment.

I didn't have copies of the older permits like I did for the other facility (same ORC). I'll have to poke him the ribs for trying to pull one over on me. Brat! He is in his 80's, and the owner is close to it too... I doubt they'll care enough to request a modification. Thanks anyway.

From: Weaver, Charles Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2011 8:04 PM To: Carter, Jenifer Subject: RE: Quail Run Jenifer — Quail Run has been required to do Dail' effluent temperature monitoring since the 1999 permit. The requirement appears in the 1999, 2004 and 2009 permits. They can request a mod to have it removed.... ("HIV From: Carter, Jenifer Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2011 2:30 PM To: Weaver, Charles Subject: Quail Run Charles, I was noticing on Quail Run's permit (NC0070033) that Temperature monitoring went from weekly to daily during the last permit renewal. I didn't notice it since it was not mentioned as a change in the draft letter. Could it be a mistake? It seems a little odd to require daily temp readings for a sandfilter system. There are no other daily monitoring requirements. i
