Questions or comments may be directed to me at jeffwnsPcenturylink.net or by phone at (336) 246-2165. Thank you for your assistance to the Town of Jefferson Water Resources as we continue to protect the waters of the New River Basin. Respectfully, iiirrt- Citi Tim Church, Water Resources Director Town of Jefferson encl: STMP jeffwns@centurylink.net Town of Jefferson WWTP Headworks Short Term Monitoring Plan A. Sampling Points(See Figure 1) 1 - Influent-prior to mixing with side streams-use regular composite sample collected for NPDES monitoring 2 - Effluent-after all treatment including chlorination-use regular composite sample collected for NPDES monitoring 3 - Activated Sludge Basin-collect a grab sample from each basin-combine these into one sample using a portion of each according to volume of WWTP flow 4 - Sludge to Disposal-sample sludge going to final disposal 5 - SIUs—locations described in IUPs 6 - Uncontrollable—collect composite samples at point in collection system that serves residential, commercial(including dentists and other medical), and any unpermitted non-SIUs. If more than one location is needed to ensure representative data, sampling will be rotated B. Pollutants of Concern(P.O.C.)

Flow at effluent(Pt. 2)and SIUs(Pt. 5)will be monitored during sampling events. Flow or volume of sludge to disposal(Pt. 4)can either be monitored or calculated. D. SIU Monitoring Significant Industrial User monitoring will be conducted per industrial user permit(IUP). Additionally,extra SIU sampling will be performed such that all SIUs are sampled for all LTMP (or STMP)POCs at least once per year. E. STMP Sampling Frequency(for Modified Programs) Sampling Point Year before HWA Other years • 1-Influent Quarterly on a Workday and per NPDES requirement 2—Effluent Quarterly on a Workday and per NPDES requirement 3 —Activated Sludge Basin Once 4- Sludge to Disposal Per Sludge Permit and 503 regulations 5 - SIU's Per SIU Permit And POC's once 6—Uncontrollable Quarterly F.

However, analysis of Aeration Basin and Sludge to Disposal samples often cannot meet these detection levels. In this case, analysis of these samples must obtain a detection level at least as stringent as the applicable inhibition criteria or sludge ceiling standard. ** All Aeration Basin and Sludge to Disposal samples will be grab.
