This is a 100% domestic minor facility. Outfall was relocated to main stem of Forbush
Creek in 1990 to gain more assimilative capacity. Effluent flow currently averages
0.006-0.008 MGD for 1996-1997 period.
DMR Data. In calendar year 1997, facility generally met permit limits. Violations
notice or BOD (1 Monthly Avg, 2 Daily Max); and Fecal Coliform (3 Daily Max).
There is no NH3 limit, and concentrations generally ranged from 1-10 mg/l. There were
no violations for TRC; however, permittee should report nondetects as less than
detection limit, rather than "0". Instantaneous flow data ranged from 0.007-0.008
MGD, with no flow during school closure period.
Page 1
Version: October20, 1998

WLA/Receiving Stream Data. The last WLA conducted January 1990 for 0.015 MGD
ischarge recommended secondary limits (30 mg/1) for BOD/TSS; with no limit for
NH3 or DO. Updated toxicant analysis confirms no need for NH3 limit. There is no
instream data collection requirement for this facility. Forbush Creek is not listed in the
1998 303(d) list. Forbush Creek, a trib to Yadkin River, was assigned a Good -Fair
bioclassification using macroinvertebrate data (May 1998 Yadkin-PeeDeeBasin Plan);
overall use support for monitored segment is Support Threatened due to sediment from
nonpoint sources. There are no impaired waters in the 030702 subbasin.
Staff Report. Last staff report in file was prepared January 1990.
Miscellaneous. NPDES Policy is to add requirement for continuous flow monitoring for
effluent flow >10,000 gpd. Permitted flow is 15,000 gpd; however, actual flow is
7,000-8,000 gpd with little variability. Therefore, recommend holding off on
continuous flow requirement with reevaluation during next permit round.

Mr. Charles H. Weaver, Jr.
NCDENR/DWQ/NPDES
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535
Mr. Weaver:
Yadkin County Board of Education is formally requesting a renewal
of the permits for Forbush Bigh School (NC0071773VI and Courtney
Elementary School (NC0029599).
The enclosed application has been completed. A check is enclosed
for both facilities. Our facilities are pumped yearly by Lentz
Septic Tank Service NCS#00147. This includes any unwanted
septage as well as sludge generated by our facilities. I would
like to request that influent sampling be waived. It is my
understanding that this is used primarily for industry. It seems
to be an unnecessary expense for our school systems.
Sincerely,
Dr. Barbara R. Todd
