Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NC0023191

Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject
permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is
issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the
Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
This final permit includes no major changes from the draft permit sent to you on
February 12, 2014.
➢ NOTE: Proposed Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge
monitoring reports (DMRs). Accordingly, NC DENR has established an electronic data -
submission system. Permittees must begin using the system no later than 270 days
following the effective date of permit renewals. In your case, that deadline is March 1,
2015.
Please note that Third Creek is listed as an impaired waterbody on the North Carolina
303(d) Impaired Waters List. Addressing impaired waters is a high priority with the Division;
instream data will continue to be evaluated. If there is noncompliance with your permit effluent
limits and stream impairment can be attributed to your facility, then mitigative measures may be
required.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit
are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request
within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a
written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed

A. (3) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports
(DMRs) and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then
permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The Division anticipates that these regulations will be adopted and is beginning implementation.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this
permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (6.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting (Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (6.) (a)l
Beginning no later than March 1.2015, the permittee shall begin reporting 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 DENR / Division of Water Resources / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 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.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements 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 using eDMR. Temporary
waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months and shall thereupon expire. At such time,
DMRs shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re -applies for and
is granted a new temporary waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic
reporting requirements is found on the following web page:
4of5
Permit NC0023191
http://Portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/admin/bog/ipu/edmr
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.
2. Si=+natory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and supersedes Section
B. (11.) (d)l
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described in
Part II, Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described
in Part II, Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be delegated signatory
authority for eDMR reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an eDMR
user account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more information on
North Carolina's eDMR system, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account,
please visit the following web page:
htti)://Dortal.nedenr.org/web/wq/admin[bog/ipu/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."
3. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.)l
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].

Description of the sludge management plan for
Seven Cedars Mobile Home Park Waste Water Treatment Plant.
A settlebility test is conducted. When the settlebility reaches 45-50% the wasting sludge
process begins by decreasing the sludge return flow to the aeration basin. This allows the
sludge to build in the settling tank. After approximately 10 to 12 hours we close the
sludge return to the aeration basin and open the valve to the sludge holding tank. The
sludge is then pumped out of the settling tank and into the sludge holding tanks where
further settling occurs. The clear water which accumulates after further settling is then
pumped back into the aeration basin. When the sludge holding tanks are full L & L
Environmental Service removes the sludge from the facility.
