NC0036251.
The sludge generated from these treatment facilities must be disposed of in accordance with G.S.

In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance

Upon completion of construction and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification

submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates the operator in responsible charge within
thirty days after the wastewater treatment facilities are 50% complete.
A copy of the approved plans and specifications shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the
life of the facility.
A leakage test shall be performed on the dosing tank to insure that any exfiltration occurs at a rate
which does not exceed twenty (20) gallons per twenty-four (24) hour per 1,000 gallons of tank capacity.
The engineer's certification will serve as proof of compliance with this condition.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Authorization to Construct may subject the
Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C.
The issuance of this Authorization to Construct does not preclude the Permittee from complying
