Proposed Changes
This is a permit renewal for an existing facility. The permit was first issued in 2005. Since that
time the permittee has received an Authorization to Construct but has not yet begun discharging.
Therefore the permit will be renewed with only one minor change, to remove settleable solids
monitoring. The TSS limit will remain in the permit.
Summary
The Town of Beach Mountain's Buckeye Lake water treatment plant is located in Watauga
County along Grassy Gap Creek Road near Buckeye Creek, which is classified as Class C; Tr
waters in the Watauga River Basin. This is an existing, high -rate water filtration plant.
Previously the backwash water from the plant was decanted in two alum sludge storage basins
and then subsequently pumped back to the head of the plant and mixed with raw water for
treatment. However public water supply regulations prohibit 100% recycle systems in water
treatment plants.
The WTP treats water from Buckeye Lake, a manmade impoundment with a storage volume of
approximately 50 million gallons. Process wastewater generated by the WTP includes the alum
sludge collected in the sedimentation basins. Filter backwash water also flows to the sludge
holding basins at a maximum rate of 1300 gpm. On average, each filter is backwashed once every
3 days. The total volume of wastewater from the sedimentation basins and filter backwash
averages approximately 20,000 GPD. Alum sludge is allowed to settle in the sludge holding
basins and the solids are periodically removed and disposed of offsite. Previously, decant from
the holding basins flowed to the decant pump station where it was pumped back to the head of
the treatment plant. Pumping back to the head of the plant occurred intermittently, as needed, at
a design rate of 100 gpm
