RE: Application for Discharge System—Turning Point CDC
2495 US 1/158 Hwy N, Henderson,NC 27536
Dear Mr. Weaver,
Enclosed please find information supporting an application for a Certification of Coverage under
the General Discharge Permit. The application is for a wastewater system with a design flow of
765 gallons/day (domestic waste) for an existing daycare facility located in Henderson, North
Carolina. The proposed system will replace an existing un-permittable sub-surface system that
serves the property. The current system is located off of the property. The project is located in
Vance County, North Carolina. The site has been deemed unsuitable for ground absorption
sewage treatment systems by the Granville-Vance District Health Department due to unsuitable
soil characteristics, unsuitable wetness conditions, unsuitable soil depth, and insufficient space
for a primary and repair area.
This application is being submitted with the intent to have coverage under the NCG550000
General Discharge Permit.
The following information is included with this letter:
Notice of Intent(NCG550000). Attachment A.
$60 check payable to North Carolina DENR.
Letter from Granville-Vance District Health Department. Attachment B.
Letter requesting coverage under the General Discharge Permit. Attachment C.

The proposed discharge point is in an existing pond located on the adjacent property to the north
that discharges north into an existing tributary of Indian Creek. A drainage easement will be
required for the adjacent property to the north of the subject property as is included in
Attachment G. The discharge system will utilize the following components:
Septic Tank with Effluent Filter
- Recirculation Tank
AdvanTex®Treatment Pods(2 Pods)
UV Disinfection
- Discharge Pump and Pump Vault
Pumped Discharge Line
Discharge Point with Rip-Rap
Flow Path to"Blue Line"Water Feature
The proposed discharge point is in an existing pond located on the adjacent property to the north
that discharges north into an existing tributary of Indian Creek. A drainage easement will be
required for the adjacent property to the north of the subject property as is included in
Attachment G. The drainage easement and a map showing the path from the proposed discharge
point to the first "blue-line" feature, as shown on the Chatham County GIS data, can be seen in
Attachment G.
Notice of Intent
As part of the Notice of Intent, the feasibility of alternatives to discharging must be addressed.
The following alternatives are to be evaluated:
Connection to a regional or municipal sewer collection system
Letter from the local or county health department describing the suitability or
non-suitability of the site for all types of wastewater ground adsorption and
innovative non-discharge systems, as well as documenting the repair potential of
the failed system.
Investigate land application such as spray irrigation or drip irrigation.
Connection to a Regional or Municipal Sewer Collection System
Connection to a sewer collection system is not feasible for this facility. Mr. Andrew Perkinson,
City of Henderson Public Works Director, was contacted to determine if the property is within
the City's coverage area. As of the date of this submission, a response has not been received in
regard to the location of sewer in the vicinity of the property. The closest current sewer is
assumed to be at least 4,000 linear ft. from the property, and it is assumed that there are no
immediate plans for a sewer extension to the area at this time (Attachment H). For reference, if
an installation cost of $100/ft of installed sewer line was assumed, the cost to connect this
property to the sewer line would be approximately$400,000. Additional costs including the cost
of the pump station,potential "tap"or sewer capital fees, road repair costs, frontage fees and fees
for right of way permits would also be incurred by the owner.

Letter from the local or county health department describing the suitability or non-
suitability of the site for all types of wastewater ground adsorption and innovative non-
discharge systems. Document the repair potential of the failed system.
Mr. Chris Hedrick of the Granville-Vance District Health Department indicated that the site is
unsuitable for installation of a ground absorption septic system in a letter dated February 4,2022.
The denial indicated that a repair permit cannot be issued due to unsuitable soil characteristics,
unsuitable soil wetness conditions,unsuitable soil depth, and insufficient space (Attachment B).
Investigate Land Application such as spray irrigation or drip irrigation.
Per the soil evaluation by Chris McGee of Agri-Waste Technology, Inc. the site does not have
suitable soil characteristics to accommodate a non-discharge surface spray or drip wastewater
system.
7Q10 Flow Estimate
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) was contacted to determine the 7Q10 flow
estimate for the downstream tributary of the proposed wastewater discharge point. The proposed
discharge point is in an existing pond located on the adjacent property to the north that
discharges north into an existing tributary of Indian Creek. The analysis from USGS indicates
the 7Q10 discharge for the point in question is likely zero (Attachment F).
Engineering Alternatives Analysis
An Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) has been completed for this site and is
included as Attachment I. In my opinion, the completed EAA demonstrates that a
wastewater treatment system permitted under the NCG550000 General Discharge Permit
is the only feasible option for this site. We have exhausted all other options for this site
as follows:
a.) connection to a municipal or regional sewer collection system
- Not feasible due to costs.
b.) subsurface disposal
- No suitable soil for a subsurface absorption system.
- Not feasible due to costs.
c.) wastewater irrigation (drip and spray)
- Unsuitable soil and insufficient space for a non-discharge ground
absorption system.
- Not feasible due to costs.
d.) reclaimed-water systems
- No suitable soil for a reclaimed water system. No reasonable
ability to operate as a bulk distributor of reclaimed water.
e.) Any viable combination of the above
- There are no viable combinations of the above due to soil and cost
limitations.

Local Government Review Forms
As part of the EAA,Local Government Review Forms were sent to Vance County and the City
of Henderson. To date,the completed forms have not been received. A copy of the submittal is
included as Attachment J.

Re: Application for improvement permit for Turning Point CDC - property site
Health Department file map number 368883
Dear Chalis Henderson:
The Granville— Vance District Health Department, Environmental Health Division on February 2, 2022
evaluated the above referenced property at the site designated on the plat/site plan that accompanied
your improvement permit application. According to your application the site is to serve a a child care
facility with a design wastewater flow of 765 gallons per day. The evaluation was done in accordance
with the laws and rules governing wastewater systems in North Carolina General Statute 130A-333
including related statutes and Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code,
Rule .1900 and related rules.
Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code,
Rule .1940 through .1948, the evaluation indicated that the site is UNSUITABLE for a sanitary system
of sewage treatment and disposal. Therefore, we must deny your request for an improvement permit. A
copy of the site evaluation is enclosed. The site is unsuitable based on the following:
Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940)
X Unsuitable soil characteristics(structure or clay mineralogy) (Rule .1941)
X Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942)
X Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)
Presence of restrictive horizon (Rule .1944)
X Insufficient space for septic system and repair area(Rule .1945)
Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks(Rule .1950)
Other(Rule .1946)
These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, leading to the discharge of
untreated sewage on the ground surface, into surface waters, directly to ground water or inside your
structure.
The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, as well as use of modified,
innovative, or alternative systems. However, the Health Department has determined that none of the

above options will overcome the severe conditions on this site. A possible option might be a system
designed to dispose of sewage to another area of suitable soil or off-site to additional property.
For the reasons set out above, the property is currently classified UNSUITABLE, and no improvement
permit shall be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948(c).
Note that a site classified as UNSUITABLE may be classified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE if
written documentation is provided that meets the requirements of Rule .1948(d). A copy of this rule is
enclosed. You may hire a consultant to assist you if you wish to try to develop a plan under which your
site could be reclassified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE.
You have a right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal review by the soil
scientist or environmental health supervisor at the local health department. You may also request an
informal review by the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services regional soil scientist.
A request for informal review must be made in writing to the local health department.
You also have a right to a formal appeal of this decision. To pursue a formal appeal, you must Tile a
petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714. To get a copy of a petition form, you may write the Office of
Administrative Hearings or call the office at [phone] or download it from the OAH web site at
http://www.ncoah.com/f'orms.html. The petition for a contested case hearing must be filed in
accordance with the provision of North Carolina General Statutes 130A-24 and 150B-23 and all other
applicable provisions of Chapter 150B. N.C. General Statute 130A-335 (g) provides that your hearing
would be held in the county where your property is located.
Please note: If you wish to pursue a formal appeal, you must file the petition form with the Office of
Administrative Hearings WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS LETTER. The date of this
letter is February 4,2022. Meeting the 30 day deadline is critical to your formal appeal.
If you file a petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, you are
required by law (N.C. General Statute 150B-23) to serve a copy of your petition on the Office of
General Counsel, N.C. Department of Health and Human Services, 2001 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,
N.C. 27699-2001.
Do not serve the petition on your local health department. Sending a copy of your petition to the local
health department will not satisfy the legal requirement in N.C. General Statute 150E-23 that you send a
copy to the Office of General Counsel,N. C. Department of Health and Human Services.
You may call or write the local health department if you need any additional information or assistance.
Sincerely,

Soils & Site Evaluation Report — On-site Wastewater Systems
2495 US 1-158 Hwy,Henderson,NC 27537(Vance County)
PREPARED FOR: Chalis Henderson, Oasis of Hope Ministries
PREPARED BY: Christopher McGee, LSS, Senior Soil Scientist
Heath Clapp, Environmental Scientist
DATE: June 22, 2020
Agri-Waste Technology, Inc. (AWT)was contracted by Oasis of Hope Ministries to perform
a soil & site evaluation for an existing church facility located at 2495 US 1-158 Hwy in
Henderson,NC. The original use of the building/facility is unknown. Included in AWT's scope
of work was to locate, inspect, and size the existing system,through an evaluation of the
surrounding soils and specifications of the existing system. The existing church is served by a
conventional gravity septic system. The following report and attachments summarize the
findings of the evaluation performed by Gary Morehouse and Heath Clapp on June 2, 2020.
The site is approximately 3 acres. A copy of the existing plat for the site is included in
Attachment 1 to this rep
ort. Through the use of a locator camera, excavation, and probing the
existing tank and drainfield area was determined. A gravel drainfield trench is installed within
the grass field/yard area located north of the building, and extends off of the property. It is
suspected that the majority of the trench is located off the property. The location of any existing
repair area for the system is unknown and likely does not exist. AWT did not confirm the size of
the existing system (gallons per day),as the system ran off of the property, and could not be
tracked. No permitting history was located for the property. The inside dimensions of the septic
tank were measured to be 66"deep x 98" long x 43"wide,which equates to approximately a
1,200-gallon septic tank. The septic tank serving this system is beginning to collapse.
The remainder of the property was evaluated in order to determine the feasibility of
establishing a new onsite wastewater system for the building. There were multiple areas of
disturbed soil throughout the site, particularly two large concrete pads. Several areas of
construction activities were noted throughout the properties. In general, any areas that contain
structures or disturbed soils areas cannot be used for new septic systems.
The majority of the property is slightly sloping. A drainage (wet)area was on the property.
There is an open area to the east of the existing church, met with a stand of trees that has the

drainage feature within it. On the other side of the tree line is another open area. The majority
of these areas are disturbed and not suitable for an on-site wastewater system. The southern and
central portions of the property contain several unsuitable areas such as disturbed areas with
concrete pads overtop of them. All areas were thoroughly traversed by AWT. All items
requiring setbacks and which cannot be utilized were mapped during the evaluation.
Findings
Soils on the parcels are mapped Appling-Urban land complex, and Durham series in the Soil
Survey issued by the Natural Resources Conservation Service. This mix of soils can contain
both suitable and unsuitable features for conventional type septic systems. Variability of usable
soil depths can be expected with this complex of soils,with Appling-Urban land complex being
the most limiting. Since the natural conditions have been heavily disturbed,the old soil maps are
no longer relevant or accurate. Eight borings were advanced by AWT during the evaluation. No
borings were found to have suitable soil depths for any conventional or alternative subsurface
septic systems. Borings contained shallow soils with fill material in places. The primary
limiting factors were shallow depth to wetness conditions and disturbance/fill. There were no
usable soil areas found on the site for subsurface wastewater(septic) systems. Soil borings were
flagged in the field and their locations/depths are noted on the attached evaluation map.
Conclusions
Based on the site findings, there do not appear to be sufficient suitable soils for a subsurface
on-site wastewater(septic) system on the property. Remaining options may include, but cannot
be guaranteed as permittable at this time:
1) A"best professional judgement" system as a replacement/repair alternative,which can
only be permitted by the Granville-Vance Environmental Health Department.
2) A surface irrigation (non-discharge)wastewater system, which will likely require a large
amount of imported fill soil, permitted through the NC Department of Environmental
Quality
3) A surface discharge wastewater system, which will require an additional engineering
study,which is also permitted through the NC Department of Environmental Quality.
The current system serving the existing facility is non-compliant, as the drainfield extends off
of the property, and the septic tank is beginning to collapse. The Granville-Vance
Environmental Health Department should be contacted regarding this issue.
We appreciate the opportunity to assist you. Please contact us with any questions, concerns,
or comments upon review of this package.
Sincerely,
duitia/„.

Subject: USGS response to DWR USGS Low Flows request # 2022-203 (dated 2022/07/08) for
UT Indian Creek Vance County...RE: [EXTERNAL] Low-flow request approval
Ms. Davidson,
In response to your inquiry about the 7010 low-flow characteristic for an unnamed
tributary to Indian Creek adjacent Spring Valley Road (NC Secondary Road 1317) near
Henderson in central Vance County, the following information is provided:
A check of the low-flow files here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center
(Raleigh office) does not indicate a previous low-flow determination for the point of

interest, identified by the lat/long coordinates (36.35215, -78.38234) provided via
email dated 07/08/2022 from the DWR USGS Low Flows portal following your
request submission.
No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for the point of interest.
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow analysis,
estimates of low-flow characteristics at ungaged locations are determined by
assessing a range in the low-flow yields (expressed as flow per square mile drainage
area, or cfsm) at nearby sites where estimates have been determined.
A basin delineation completed using the online USGS StreamStats application for
North Carolina (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/) indicates the drainage area for the
point of interest (StreamStats adjusted coordinates 36.35215, -78.38234 NAD83) is
0.0392 sqmi, which confirms the drainage area submitted as part of the request
information.
For streams in Vance County, low-flow characteristics published by the USGS are
provided in the following reports:
(1) The first is a statewide report completed in the early 1990's. It is USGS Water-
Supply Paper 2403, "Low-flow characteristics of streams in North Carolina (Giese
and Mason, 1993). An online version of the report is available at
http://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/2403/report.pdf. The report provides the low-flow
characteristics (based on data through 1988) via regional relations and at-site values
for sites with drainage basins between 1 and 400 sqmi and not considered or known
to be affected by regulation and/or diversions.
(2) The second is a basin-wide report for the Roanoke River basin published in 1996.
It is USGS Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4154, "Low-flow characteristics
and profiles for selected streams in the Roanoke River Basin, North Carolina"
(Weaver, 1996). An online version of the report is available through
http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/publication/wri964154. The report provides the low-flow
characteristics (based on data through 1994) for continuous-record gaging stations
and partial-record sites within the Roanoke basin. The report also provides low-flow
discharge profiles (7Q10, 30Q2, winter 7Q10, and 7Q2) for the reaches of Dan River
and Roanoke River in North Carolina as well as selected tributaries within the basin.
(3) The third is a basin-wide report for the Neuse River basin published in 1998. It is
USGS Water-Resources Investigations Report 98-4135, "Low-flow characteristics and
discharge profiles for selected streams in the Neuse River basin, North Carolina"
(Weaver, 1998). The report is available online at

http://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1998/4135/report.pdf. This report provides low-flow
characteristics (based on data through 1996) for USGS continuous- and partial-record
sites in the Neuse River basin where sufficient data was available for analyses.
However; the report does not provide statistical relations for estimating low-flow
characteristics at ungaged locations.
(4) The fourth is a statewide report initially published in March 2015 but revised and
republished (as version 1.1) in March 2016. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report
2015-5001, "Low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for selected USGS
continuous-record streamgaging stations in North Carolina through 2012" (Weaver,
2016). The report is available online at http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5001/. The
report provides updated low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for 266
active (as of 2012 water year) and discontinued streamgages across the state where a
minimum of 10 climatic years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Low-flow characteristics estimated for point of interest:
Visual inspection of the stream location on a topographical map suggests a very small
basin area upstream from the point of interest. As noted above, the drainage area
for the basin upstream from the point of interest is little less than 0.04 sqmi.
On pages 18-20 of the Roanoke basin-wide low-flow report (second reference above)
is information about the Occurrence of Zero or Minimal 7Q10 Discharge that is likely
to occur for a stream within the major basin, contingent on the size of the upstream
drainage basin. The discussion on page 20 in this section indicates that some of the
soils between eastern Person County and western Warren County have high clay
content and thus may be a primary factor in occurrence of zero 7Q10 discharges in
the central part of the study area [Roanoke River basin]:
"Estimates of zero or minimal 7Q I O discharges occur in two general sections of the
study area. Zero or minimal 7Q10 discharges occur at numerous sites between
eastern Caswell and western Warren County (plate 1) and are primarily the result of
soils having low infiltration rates. Much of the water that comes in contact with the
soils in this area enters the streams as overland runoff and does not infiltrate into the
surficial aquifers for later release during drought conditions. In eastern Caswell
County and western Person County, many soils are identified as having poor drainage
(fig. 68 ). Correspondingly, many of the sites in the lower half of the Country Line
Creek Basin in Caswell County, as well as those in the upper reaches of Hyco Creek
Basin, have estimates of zero or minimal 7Q10 discharge. Soils in much of the area
between eastern Person County and western Warren County, while identified as
moderately well drained, consist of those in the B/C infiltration group ( table 3)
which include soils having high clay content."

There is somewhat limited streamflow records for streams in Vance County, However,
inspection of the Roanoke basin-wide low-flow report (#2 above-referenced)
indicates the presence of two (2) nearby selected USGS partial-record sites (2) and
continuous-record streamgages (0) in the general vicinity of the point of interest
where low-flow characteristics were published. The published 7010 discharges for
both of these two nearby partial-record sites with drainage areas 2 sqmi (Sta.
02079259) and 6 sqmi (Sta. 02079264) are estimated at zero flow.
Consideration of the above information results in a conclusion the 7Q10 discharge
for the point of interest is zero flow.
Please understand the information provided in this message is based on a
preliminary assessment and considered provisional, subject to revision pending
further analyses.
This low-flow response is provided via the DWR USGS Low Flows cooperative
agreement between the USGS and the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality,
Division of Water Resources.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.

Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) Guidance Document
North Carolina Division of Water Resources
STEP 1. Determine if the proposed discharge will be allowed
Non-municipal applicants.
Due to staff constraints, the NPDES Unit cannot prepare speculative limits for non-municipal applicants.
Thus,it is your responsibility to make your own determination as to whether the proposed discharge might be
allowed by the Division, by evaluating the water quality factors listed above. It is highly recommended that
you discuss the proposed discharge with the applicable DWR Regional Office and/or NPDES Unit staff,who
may be able to provide input on the likelihood of a new/expanding discharge. As a first step, you must
obtain streamflow estimates for the proposed discharge location to ensure that the receiving stream is not
subject to zero flow restrictions. Low flow data (specifically, drainage area, the summer and winter 7Q10,
average flow and 30Q2 flow statistics) can be obtained for a nominal fee from the U.S. Geological Survey in
Raleigh at 919-571-4000. The low flow data must be submitted with the EAA, and will be used by the permit
writer to develop permit limits. You must also verify that the proposed action (i.e., construction of a
wastewater treatment plant and its appurtenances) is consistent with local zoning and/or subdivision
ordinances. You will need to request the local governments) to complete a Local Government Review Form
(Attachment A),and include the signed and notarized form with your NPDES application package.
Response: The United States Geological Survey (USGS) was contacted to determine the 7Q10 flow estimate for the
downstream tributary of the proposed wastewater discharge point. The proposed discharge point is in an existing
pond located on the adjacent property to the north. This pond outlets to the north into an unnamed tributary to
Indian Creek. The analysis from USGS indicates the 7Q10 discharge for the point in question is likely zero
(Attachment F of application package). Because this is an existing treatment system with zero flow, the
discharge will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
All applicants.
If you conclude that the proposed discharge will pass the "allowable discharge"criteria, then begin the EAA
preparation by summarizing the following general information about the proposed project:
• Provide a description of the proposed project. If the project will be constructed in phases, provide a
schedule for constructing each additional phase,and provide the projected flow per phase (see STEP 2).
Response: A wastewater discharge system is to be constructed for an existing 765-gpd child daycare facility located in
Vance County, North Carolina. The proposed system will replace an un-permittable subsurface system that
currently serves the property. The proposed discharge point is in an existing pond located on the adjacent
property to the north,which leads to a tributary to Indian Creek. The proposed treatment system will utilize the
following components:
New Septic Tank with Effluent Filter
Recirculation Tank
AdvanTex Treatment Pods(2 Pods)
UV Disinfection
Discharge Pump with Pump Vault
Control Panel
Discharge Point with Rip Rap
Construction of the proposed system will occur in a single phase with an anticipated completion time of
approximately 2 weeks after the start of construction activity.

STEP 2. Provide reasonable projections for population and flow
Residential Population Projections.
Facilities requesting an NPDES discharge permit for new or expanding domestic wastewater discharges
must document the population to be served within the service area over a 20-year planning period. The NC
State Demographics unit provides population data for each county and municipality and can be accessed on
the Internet at http://www.demog.state.nc.us. If 20-year population projections for specific areas are not
available, a linear extrapolation of population trends from the past decade should be used. Any deviation
from a linear projection method must be clearly justified. If population projections include future
annexations, include a proposed annexation schedule as well as any annexation requirements that must be
met.
Response: Because the wastewater treatment system is designed for an existing daycare facility,the population to be served
will be limited by the space available within the existing facility. For the 20-year planning period,the system will
be designed for a flow of 765 gallons per day.
STEP 3. Evaluate technologically feasible alternatives
Alternative A. Connection to an Existing Wastewater Treatment System.
You must evaluate the feasibility of connecting to an existing wastewater treatment system served by a
municipality or other entity holding a valid NPDES or Non-Discharge Permit. All connection options
should include an evaluation of a gravity line and/or force main with pump station(s).
1. Existing Sewerage System:
(a) Identify whether there are existing sewer lines within a five-mile radius,or consider a greater
radius if cost effective for the project size.
Response: Connection to a sewer collection system is not feasible for this facility. Mr. Andrew Perkinson, City of
Henderson Public Works Director,was contacted to determine if the property is within the City's coverage area.
As of the date of this submission, a response has not been received in regards to the location of sewer in the
vicinity of the property. The closest current sewer is assumed to be at least 4,000 linear ft. from the property and
EAA Guidance Document Revision:April 2014
Page 2 of 8

it is assumed that there are no immediate plans for a sewer extension to the area at this time(Attachment H). For
reference,if an installation cost of$100/ft of installed sewer line was assumed,the cost to connect this property to
the sewer line would be approximately $400,000. Additional costs including the cost of the pump station,
potential"tap"or sewer capital fees,road repair costs, frontage fees and fees for right of way permits would also
be incurred by the homeowner.
(b) Provide a preliminary indication of flow acceptance from existing municipal or private
WWTPs under consideration for connection. If a municipal or private WWTP cannot accept
the wastewater, include a letter documenting such and consider this alternative
technologically infeasible.
Response: N/A No sewerage available
(c) If an existing sewerage system will accept the wastewater, evaluate the
piping/pumps/resources necessary to connect to the existing wastewater treatment plant.
Attach a topographic map or a site drawing showing the physical route of this alternative.
Conduct a Present Value Cost Analysis per STEP 4.
Response: N/A No sewerage available
2. Planned Sewerage System: Determine if a regional sewerage system within a five mile radius is
projected to be available within the next five years to receive waste from the project site. If
applicable, determine availability date and flow acceptance projection from appropriate
authority.
Response: As stated above, it is unknown if sewerage system currently exists within five miles of the property, but a
connection to this system is infeasible due to the cost.
Alternative B. Land Application.
Land application disposal alternatives include individual/community onsite subsurface systems, drip
irrigation,and spray irrigation.
1. Provide an estimate of the best case hydraulic loading rate based on County Soil Surveys or from
a soil evaluation performed by a soil scientist. Include calculations showing the hydraulic
loading rate and the total area of land needed for the land disposal system,including buffers.
Response: The Granville-Vance District Health Department indicated that the site is unsuitable for installation of a ground
absorption septic system in a letter dated February 4, 2022 (Attachment B of application package). The letter
indicated that a repair permit cannot be issued due to unsuitable soil characteristics, unsuitable soil wetness
conditions,unsuitable soil depth,and insufficient space.
Per the soil evaluation by Chris McGee of Agri-Waste Technology, Inc.the site does not have suitable soil to
accommodate a ground absorption or surface drip or surface spray wastewater system (Attachment E of
application package).
Regardless of the fact that a subsurface ground absorption can not be designed or permitted for this site, the
potential size of a subsurface system has been estimated. According to the county soil survey, the site is
classified as a Appling-Urban land complex and Durham series soil. For a subsurface system in this soil, a drip
system with pretreatment would be required. This soil would have a long-term acceptance rate(LTAR)ranging
from 0.05-0.2 gpd/sq.ft.,with a typical rate of 0.1 gpd/sq.ft. Subsurface systems also require the drainline to be
installed with the contour so that each drainline is at a constant elevation. This results in a "fanning" of the
drainline and requires additional space in order to install the required amount of drainline. The sizing calculation
is summarized in the table below:
EAA Guidance Document Revision:April 2014
Page 3 of 8

Subsurface Dripfield Design Alternative
Daily Flow 765 gpd
LTAR 0.1 gpd/sqft
Minimum Area Required (Nominal) 7,650 sqft =DailyFIow/LTAR
Estimation for Topographical Variation 2,550 sqft
Estimated Area Required (Actual) 10,200 sqft
Approximate Area Available 54,420 sqft
The current property's land available for the system is 54,420 sqft,due to setbacks and existing site conditions.
A schematic of this area is shown in Appendix A of the EAA. The land needed for a subsurface dripfield
design is a minimum of 7,650 sq.ft.,so there may be sufficient space for this type of system at the property but
there is not enough suitable soil for this type of system.
The potential size of a non-discharge surface application system has also been estimated. According to the
county soil survey, the site is classified as a Appling-Urban land complex soil. For a surface system in this
soil,the SFR loading rate group is likely restricted to a maximum annual loading of 19.5 in/year. The sizing
calculation for a non-discharge surface system is summarized in the table below:
Non-Discharge Surface Design Alternative
Daily Flow 765 gpd
Surface Loading Rate 19.5 in/year
Minimum Area Required(Nominal) 22,971 sqft
Approximate Area Available 54,420 sqft
The current property's land available for a surface drip or spray system is 54,420 sqft, due to setbacks and
existing site conditions. A schematic of this area is shown in Appendix A. The land needed for a non-
discharge application system is estimated at 22,971 sq. ft., so there may be sufficient space for this type of
system at the property but there is not enough suitable soil for this type of system. The potential waving of
property setbacks was taken into account when considering the available application area for both surface
systems.
2. Assess the availability of land. If insufficient land is available onsite, assume that the necessary
land can be purchased and estimate the land purchase cost based on local real estate prices.
Alternatively,provide documentation to demonstrate that insufficient land is available for sale in
the project area (include letters from adjacent property owners indicating no interest in selling
property).
Response: Because insufficient land is available onsite, offsite land was reviewed. The table below lists neighboring
properties and the value of the land as listed by the Vance County GIS website. The surrounding lots
contain single-family residences. The values listed in the table do not reflect the value of the single-family
residences. The soil types listed for these properties is Appling-Urban land complex. These sites will be
very restrictive for wastewater systems.

Parcel ID 0030 02003 (Southwest across road) 1.35 N 61,710
3. Provide a description of the wastewater treatment system and the non-discharge application
system. Include a site plan showing the proposed layout, the application area, any existing
structures,proposed structures, and other uses within the site.
Response: A typical subsurface drip system or a non-discharge surface spray or surface drip system with pretreatment
considers the following components:
- Septic Tank with Effluent Filter
-Recirculation Tank
-AdvanTex Treatment Technology
-Pump Tank for long term storage
- UV Disinfection
-Headworks Box
-Control Panel
-Disposal Field(drip or spray)
Note: The proposed discharge system does not consider the pump tank,headworks box or disposal field.
Site drawings of these alternative systems showing the available application area are included as Appendix A
of the EAA. Due to the size requirements of a drip or spray system and the limited available space,there is no
ability to consider any of these systems on this property.
4. Explain the proposed reuse plan if reclaimed water will be used by a third party.
Response: There is no reuse plan being considered either on-site or by a third party. The existing residential plumbing
infrastructure does not allow for reuse in the existing residence. It is not feasible to consider using reclaimed
water on the site or becoming a bulk distributor of reclaimed water. The table below summarizes the
amount of reclaimed water that could be beneficially used on site. As shown,there may be sufficient area to
utilize the daily flow of reclaimed water.
On-site Utilization of Reclaimed Water
Daily flow through system 765 gpd
Available Area to Irrigate 67,800 sqft *Veg.cover on property
Application Rate 0.5 in/week *Fescue Grass
Acceptable Volume to Irrigate 2825 ft3/week
= 3019 gpd
5. Conduct a Present Value Cost Analysis per STEP 4. For the reclaimed water system include the
potential revenue generated by selling the water.
Response: A Present Value Cost Analysis is included as Appendix B of the EAA. An analysis was performed for a
sub-surface drip system, a non-discharge surface application system, and a reclaimed water system. A
summary of the analysis is included in STEP 4.
EAA Guidance Document Revision:April 2014
Page 5 of 8

6. Provide all calculations, documentation and maps as necessary to support assumptions and
conclusions.
Response: Calculations performed to evaluate land application alternatives are shown above in Alternative B,Points 1
and 4.
7. Note:The design of land application systems must meet the treatment and design requirements
specified in 15A NCAC 2T.0500 or 15A NCAC 18A.1900.
Response: The treatment systems specified above in Step B would meet the treatment standards required by these rules
as they pertain to single family residences. However, because of the lack of available space and other
restrictions listed above,no land-based systems can be considered.
8. Note: Proposed discharges from groundwater remediation systems must evaluate the potential
for an infiltration gallery treatment alternative.
Response: N/A
Alternative C. Wastewater Reuse.
You must evaluate reusing all or a portion of the wastewater generated. Some municipalities are currently
reusing wastewater within the confines of their WWTP property for irrigation, toilet flushing, backwashing,
etc.,while other municipalities have established progressive reuse programs for residential irrigation. Reuse
applications might include golf course irrigation, crop irrigation (e.g., hardwood or pine plantation,
grasses), athletic field irrigation, landscape uses, and commercial/industrial uses. Some of these reuse
applications will be evaluated under Alternative B, Land Application. The design of reclaimed water
systems must meet the treatment and design requirements specified in 15A NCAC 2U.
Response: All reuse applications for this project scale were evaluated under Alternative B, Point 4. Wastewater reuse
was determined to be infeasible for this project.
Alternative D. Direct Discharge to Surface Waters.
1. No new or expanding (additional) discharge of oxygen-consuming waste will be allowed to
surface waters of North Carolina if both the summer 7Q10 and 30Q2 streamflows are estimated
to be zero,in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0206(d). Private applicants must contact the USGS
in Raleigh at 919-571-4000 and obtain (generally for a nominal fee), the receiving streamflow data
(s7Q10, 30Q2, annual average streamflow) at the proposed discharge location. This information
must be included in the EAA, and will be used to develop permit limits.
Response: Because this is an existing treatment facility with estimated zero flow at the discharge point and no
expansion in discharge proposed,the discharge will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
2. All direct discharge systems of oxygen-consuming wastes should be evaluated both with tertiary
filtration [BOD5= 5 mg/1, NH3-N= 1 mg/1] and without, and assuming a weekly sampling
regime.
Response: Tertiary filtration is not required under the general permit, as the general permit requirements (monthly
average) are BOD5 = 30 mg/I and Total Suspended Solids = 30 mg/1. However, based on actual sample
results from similar treatment systems(other facilities using the same technology)in many cases,a BOD5 of
5 mg/I and NH3-N of 1 mg/I can be met. While weekly sampling of the treated effluent would confirm the
treatment results on a regular basis, the additional cost associated with the collection and testing of the
effluent would not be feasible for the homeowner.
EAA Guidance Document Revision:April 2014
Page 6 of 8

3. Provide a description of the proposed wastewater treatment facilities, including a schematic
diagram of the major components and a site plan of the treatment facility with outfall line(s).
Response: Plans and schematic drawings can be found in Attachment K(of application package).
4. Provide documentationof ano the
e availability ofrequiredreements.land and/or easement agreements.
g
Response: The proposed discharge system will be located on land owned by the applicant. The easement agreement for
the discharge location has been included. See Attachment K (of application package) for the proposed
discharge system location.
5. Conduct a Present Value Cost Analysis per STEP 4.
Response: A Present Value Cost Analysis for the discharge system is included in Appendix B. A summary of the
analysis is included in STEP 4.
6. Note: All direct discharge treatment systems must comply with Reliability Requirements
specified in 15A NCAC 2H.0124.
Response: There is storage available in the system to hold some waste from the house until power is restored to the
system. If excessive amounts of wastewater are generated,the wastewater will back up in the house.
Alternative E. Combination of Alternatives.
You should evaluate the possibility of a combination of wastewater alternatives that would minimize or
eliminate a direct discharge alternative. For example, consider whether the facility can operate a land
application system during the dry season when streamfiows are at their lowest and provide less dilution, and
operate an NPDES discharge system during the wet season when soils may not be as amenable to land
application and the receiving stream provides its greatest dilution.
Response: A non-discharge alternative is not feasible due to the space and soil constraints listed in Alternative B. The
presence or absence of a seasonal high water table will not relieve the other constraints.
EAA Guidance Document Revision:April 2014
Page 7 of 8

STEP 4. Evaluate economic feasibility of alternatives
PVCA Summary Table.
The EAA must include a Summary Cost Table, which summarizes present worth costs developed for all
technologically feasible wastewater alternatives. The summary should include a breakdown of capital costs
and recurring costs. In some situations, the Division may require the applicant to refine cost estimates for
some alternatives, or possibly collect actual soil data to better characterize the land application alternative.
Ultimately, the final determination on cost effectiveness is made by the Division with consideration of
monetary costs as well as potential environmental impacts.
Response: The following table presents the cost analysis for several types of wastewater systems. Given the
information presented above,the only technologically feasible alternative is the Discharge System. The
"Install Cost"includes the estimated cost to design and install the specific type of system. The"Present
Value of Costs"is based on a discount factor of 1.2%.
