Dear Mr. Snider:
I am responding to the Certified Mail Notice dated November 3, 2020, that we received on November 12,
2020, with regards to the "Notice of Violation & Intent to Issue Civil Penalty" for Tracking # NOV-2020-
DV-0489. With regards to the ten (10) business days' response that is required upon receipt of this
notice, we are submitting this written request to provide explanation of the noncompliance issues noted.
As for the incident cited as Incident Number 202002308 (at Industrial PS, 300 Business Park Dr. on
August 6, 2020), a Notice of Intent (NOI) was provided as the DWR Action.
As for the incidents cited as Incident Numbers 202002355 (at Crater Park, 310 Standard St. on August 15,
2020) and 202002356 (at Regional Pump Station, Hwy 268 E on August 15, 2020), a Notice of Violation
(NOV) was issued. This incident was due to inflow and infiltration, and severe natural conditions.
As for the incidents cited as Incident Numbers 202002460 (at 131 N. Bridge St. on August 21, 2020),
202002461(at Elkin Creek Line MH990 on August 21, 2020) and 202002462 (at Elkin Creek Line
MH993 on August 21, 2020) a Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued. These incidents were due to
inflow and infiltration, and severe natural conditions.
As for the incident cited as Incident Number 202002459(at Regional PS, Hwy 268 E on August 21, 2020)
a Notice of Intent (NOI) was provided as the DWR Action.
For this incident, please review the following information to explain what happened during the time of
this occurrence as well as corrective action that has been implemented to correct for this sanitary sewer
overflow:
1) Around 5:00 AM on August 21, 2020, YVSA Staff received notice of "High -Level" alarm at the
Regional Pump Station from the SCADA system within the Collection System.
2) Upon receipt of these alarms, staff responded immediately by heading out to monitor the
situation.
3) Later in the morning while making rounds during the rain event, Staff noticed spilling at manhole
#980.
4) Please note that during this time there was approximately 2.5 to 3 inches of rain during a small-
time frame. The rain was so excessive that the Big Elkin Creek came out of its banks, and it was
during this time there was also excessive groundwater contributing to increased inflow and
infiltration.
5) As for this entire week and previous week (*** please see the enclosed flow charts from the
W WTP from August 19, 2020 through August 23, 2020), we can see the flow was elevated due to
the excessive amount of rain the prior weeks. Therefore when the 2.5 to 3 inches of rain came,
this inflow caused excessive flow to the Regional PS area, therefore; this lead to the SSO at
Manhole # 980 behind the Regional PS.
6) Staff noticed the spill started approximately around 9:00 AM and continued until around 12:00
PM at manhole #980 (behind Regional PS).
7) The volume of this SSO reported to NCDEQ was 15,000 gallons that discharged into the Yadkin
River. Total Volume of the spill was 15,000 gallons.
8) ***Please be advised that the YVSA Board and staff would like to stress that this SSO was
definitely inadvertent (or involuntary). It is the intent of the YVSA staff to continue in a
multifaceted manner to address all sanitary sewer overflows and work towards preventing such
incidents in the future with regards to the Collections System.
I have attached a Cost Analysis sheet of including the emergency response time by staff as well as the
cost for publication into the local newspaper. [See `Cost Analysis for 8/6/2020, 8/15/2020, and 8/21/2020
SSOs.] The total amount spent for regular pay, and publication affidavit was $1,207.09.]
***I have also attached the flow charts for the W WTP from Tuesday, August 4" thru Saturday, August
81, Thursday, August 131^ thru Monday, August 171, and Wednesday, August 191 thru Sunday, August
23rd. Our permitted flow for the W WTP is 1.8 MGD. Our normal flow is around 700,000 gallons per
day. Flow for 8/4/2020 was 0.818 MGD; by 8/5/2020, the flow had increased to 1.486 MGD, and by '
8/6/2020 was 1.796MGD. As for 8/7/2020, the flow had dropped to 1.265 MGD and by 8/8/2020 the
flow was down to 1.048 MGD. The flows from 8/4/2020 through 8/8/2020, there was 6,410,000 gallons
(with an average of 1,280,000 gallons) that flowed to the W WTP (please see enclosed receipt tape with
flow charts).
Flow for 8/13/2020 was 1.588 MGD; by 8/14/2020, the flow had increased to 2.332 MGD, and by
8/15/2020 was 2.811 MGD. As for 8/16/2020, the flow had dropped to 1.514 MGD and by 8/17/2020 the
flow was down to 1.166 MGD. The flows from 8/14/2020 through 8/17/2020, there was 9,410,000
gallons (with an average of 1,880,000 gallons) that flowed to the WWTP (please see enclosed receipt tape
with flowcharts). I also attached a copy of the press release showing publication of the SSO, which was
published at a rate of $89.40.
Flow for 8/19/2020 was 0.969 MGD; by 8/20/2020, the flow had increased to 1.160 MGD, and by
8/21/2020 was 2.825 MGD. As for 8/22/2020, the flow had dropped to 1.313 MGD and by 8/23/2020 the
flow was down to 1.061 MGD. The flows from 8/19/2020 through 8/23/2020, there was 5,580,000
gallons (with an average of 1,470,000 gallons) that flowed to the W WTP (please see enclosed receipt tape
with flowcharts). I also attached a copy of the press release showing publication of the SSO, which was
published at a rate of $310.20.
For your convenience, we have also supplied you with an updated `YADKIN VALLEY SEWER
AUTHORITY PROJECT FUNDING SUMMARY' (from the` time of YVSA's inception and
updated as. of November 10, 2020). Please note that the total cost for all projects total $19,265,617.
[Furthermore, through the due diligence of staff and our engineering firm, we have been able to
successfully obtain $10,739,930 of this total amount in GRANT monies! The remaining amount
total for local matches and/or 0% loans is $8,525,687.1 Anyway§, this total funding amount of
$19,265,617 has come around since the YVSA started operations on July 1, 2010. These projects
included past projects as well as more upcoming and `in process' projects such as these:
a. SW Elkin Collection System Improvements - $1,316,189 (COMPLETE);
b. Collection System Rehabilitation Project Phase II (Pump Stations) - $1,408,955
(COMPLETE);

installation along with a new laboratory building;
g. 2017 Collection System Rehabilitation (RFQs Request for Qualifications received by
Engineering firm) - $2,688,489 (99% complete);
h. 2017 WWTP Improvements (RFQs received by Engineering firm) - $1,321,322 (99%
complete);
i. North Bridge Street Sewer Repairs - $244,783 (COMPLETE) — this included multiple

o. 2020 Collection System Rehabilitation — Part I (ASADRA, 0% int.) - $683,400. (0%
complete)
p. Streambank Mitigation — FEMA- $365,000. (0% complete)
q. Please note that this Summary does not include the grant and loan amount obtained to
create the YVSA through the Regionalization Project. These amounts total another
$6,275,000, for which $4,000,000 was grant and the remaining amount was from two (2)
loans - $1,000,000 at 2.55% interest and $1,275,000 at 2.95% interest. [Refer to the
`YVSA ANALYSIS OF FY 2020 - 2021 DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS' enclosed
attachment that provides the current balances for these two (2) loans entitled `Waste
Treatment Improvements (1)' and Waste Treatment Improvements (2)'.]
Now, the YVSA would like to provide that we are continuously improving our Collections System (as
well as upgrading our W WTP). I have also attached our most recent `Capital Improvement Plan — CIP'
(revised and updated this past March 10, 2020). Please note that there is a little over $15 million dollars
still needed for future rehabilitation, pump station.upgrades, etc. still needed. We will continuously strive
to obtain grant and/or low interest loan funding to complete the items needed on this CIP.
Additionally, the following should be noted:
1. YVSA reports every SSO in accordance with its collection system permit.
2. YVSA has spent or has committed to spending over $17 million on capital projects to improve
the entire wastewater system.
3. YVSA has planned for an additional $11 million for near future capital projects (on the current
CIP).
4. Most of the pump stations have been rehabilitated, upgraded, or eliminated such that SSO's due
to equipment failures are now rare.
5. SSO's are now mainly attributable to 1/I. Much of the focus of current projects is on I/I reduction.
6. Efforts are still underway, to find the sources of I/I, such as the current High Priority Areas AIA
project.
7. Due to the size of the task of identifying and addressing sources of VI, YVSA needs as much time
as the State can give it to accomplish this goal.
8.Current projects scheduled to be completed by end of 2021.
Now, please note that the YVSA Board and staff are very aware that the incidents noted above are a
serious infraction of our Collection System NPDES Permit No. WQCS00376. However, please be
advised that the YVSA Board and Staff would like to stress that these SSOs were definitely inadvertent
(or involuntary). It is the intent of the YVSA Staff to minimize such occurrences from happening;
however, there are some severe natural events (conditions) that are beyond our control.
We would also like to mention that the YVSA staff is working attentively to address any and all
corrective actions to prevent future SSOs in the Collections System as noted above. Please feel free to
contact Ms. Nicole Johnston (Executive, Director of the YVSA) at 336-835-9819 if you need further
information.
Thank you for your assistance with this `NOV & Intent to Issue Civil Penalty' for the incidents cited
above. We look forward to hearing your response soon.
Sincerely,

Sanitary Sewer Overflows - August 2020
Collection System Permit No. WQCS00376
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority WWTP
.Surry County
Dear Permittee:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report/s submitted by
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority. The Division's Winston-Salem Regional Office concludes that the Yadkin Valley
Sewer Authority violated Permit Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00376 by failing to effectively manage,
maintain, and operate their collection system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or
surface waters and the SSO constituted making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S.
143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is required by G.S. 143-215.1.
The Winston-Salem Regional Office is providing the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority an opportunity to provide
evidence and justification as to why the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority should not be assessed a civil penalty for
the violation(s) that are summarized below:

This Notice of Violation / Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/NOI) is being issued for the noted violation. Pursuant
to G.S. 143-215.6A, a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) may be assessed
against any person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of any
permit issued pursuant to G.S. 143-215.1.
This office requests that you respond to this Notice, in writing, within 10 business days of its
receipt. In your response, you should address the causes of non-compliance, remedial actions, and all other
actions taken to prevent the recurrence of similar situations. The response to this correspondence will be
considered in this process. Enforcement decisions will also be based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface
waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills or recreational area closures. Other factors
considered in determining the amount of the civil penalty are the violator's history of non-compliance, the cost of
rectifying the damage, whether the spill was intentional and whether money was saved by non-compliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ron Boone with the Water Quality Section in the
Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9800 or via email at ron.boone@ncdenr.gov.

Sanitary Sewer Overflows - August 2020
Collection System Permit No. WQCS00376
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority WWTP
Surry County
Dear Permittee:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report/s submitted by
Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority. The Division's Winston-Salem Regional Office concludes that the Yadkin Valley
Sewer Authority violated Permit Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00376 by failing to effectively manage,
maintain, and operate their collection system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or ,
surface waters and the SSO constituted making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. j
143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is required by G.S. 143-215.1.
The Winston-Salem Regional Office is providing the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority an opportunity to provide
evidence and justification as to why the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority should not be assessed a civil penalty for
the violation(s) that are summarized below:

This Notice of Violation / Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/NOI) is being issued for the noted violation. Pursuant
to G.S. 143-215.6A, a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) may be assessed
against any person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of any
permit issued pursuant to G.S. 143-215.1.
This office requests that you respond to this Notice, in writing, within 10 business days of its
receipt. In your response, you should address the causes of non-compliance, remedial actions, and all other
actions taken to prevent the recurrence of similar situations. The response to this correspondence will be
considered in this process. Enforcement decisions will also be based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface
waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills or recreational area closures. Other factors
considered in determining the amount of the civil penalty are the violator's history of non-compliance, the cost of
rectifying the damage, whether the spill was intentional and whether money was saved by non-compliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ron Boone with the Water Quality Section in the
Winston-Salem Regional Office at 336-776-9800 or via email at ron.boone@ncdenr.gov.
Sincerely,
Coeasia� W.
