Sanitary Sewer Overflow —309 Farmer Rd. Behind 240 Spring Garden St. Winstcr-'
Regior. ;
Dear Mr. Lon Snider:
On March 16th, 2021 the City of Asheboro Water and Sewer Maintenance department got a call
about grey water in the creek. Our departments investigator responded to the call right away and found
the location of the problem. Sewer was surfacing from underground between manhole #2738 and
manhole #2742. He called a crew in to fix the problem.
The crew arrived and jetted the line for a total of 190 feet. The crew excavated down on the
sewer main to find that a joint of pipe was leaking from around the bell. They installed a bell joint clamp
to pull the pipe together and hold it for a permanent fix. We ran 2 hydrants for 12 hours to flush the
creek. We spread lime in the area that the sewer came in contact with the ground.
The City of Asheboro requests that NCDENR refrain from taking any enforcement action for this
incident. We acted immediately to stop the overflow and repair the pipe. There was no environmental
impact. Thank you for your time in this matter. If you have any questions please call me at 336-626-
1234 ext. 2205.
Sincerely,
Shannon White
Water/Sewer Maintenance Superintendent
