Thomas, PE 500 NC Hwy 268 W — Elkin, NC 28621 Phone: 336-835-9819 — www_ ysa,.oM — Fax: 336-835-9840 General Information: This is the fourth PAR submitted by the YVSA and there is only one IUP (PGW — Pittsburgh Glass Works) in the YVSA's pretreatment program, which began operation in early March 2013. An Authorization -to -Construct a pretreatment system was issued on April 24, 2014. The AT, STMP, HWA, SUO, ERP, IWS and permits are up to date. All dates on the Division's Pretreatment Program Info Database Sheet are correct. Site inspections of the PGW facility were completed by the YVSA staff on 6i20/18 and 9i 13I18. IU Information: PGW (Pittsburgh Glass Works, LLC) IUP renewal effective and expiration dates are 1/20; 19 and 316;-2I, respectively. The IUP was modified on 1/20/19 in which the annual average flow increased from 0.135 mgd to 0.150 mgd, and the expiration date changed from 3/6/20 to 3/6/21. During 2018, PGW was in Significant Noncompliance (SNC) for both 6-month periods. The SNC for the first 6-months resulted in the following notice of violation (NOV) and civil penalty being issued to PGW: Reporting Non- Monthly or Limit Further NOV Violation Reporting Compliance Average Parameter Criterion Action Civil Date Source Parameter Limit Violation Exceeded Required Date Type Penalty_ Jan -Apr Exceed grit n 2018 YVSA Solids 12 mg/L limit Yes Yes 10/29/18 SNC $50,000 For the 1 Oi29/18 NOV, the IUP monthly grit limit was exceeded from January through April 2018, a violation of Part 2 Section 8 of the IUP. The civil penalty was prompted due to consistently exceeding the grit limit (twice by a large margin) and not addressing in a timely manner. A press release for the SNC was issued on 10/3I1+18 (enclosed). Although several corrective actions have been implemented to correct the permit violation, for the second 6-month period the grit limit was exceeded in August, November, and December of 2018. An undetermined civil penalty will be accessed. The public notice for SNC will be published in the Elkin Tribune on Wednesday, March 6, 2019. Though PGW has constructed additional measures in 2018 to prevent continued occurrences of garnet residuals (see 2017 PAR), YVSA continues to monitor for garnet residuals. . Also enclosed are the PAR tables, 10:29 : 18 NOV, and the pretreatment program info database (which is not current). 500 NC Hwy 268 W -- Elkin, NC 28621 Phone: 336-835-9819 — www.wsa.org -- Fax: 336-835-9840 Chapter 9, PAR Guidance Pretreatment Performance Summary (PPS) 1.
