This is the Annual Performance Report, 2018 edition for the Town of Jefferson Wastewater
Treatment Plant and its outlying sanitary sewer collection system, permits NC0021709 and
WQCS00220 respectively. Our mission statement for managing our water resources facilities is
expressed in three areas.
1. To surpass all North Carolina and US EPA Clean Water Standards
2. To operate in the most cost-conscious manner possible for our customers
3. To protect and enhance the public health of the New River Basin
COLLECTION SYSTEM PERFORMANCE is critical to our river basin. The Town of Jefferson
maintains about 18 miles of sanitary sewer mains, along with five pump stations. The system
experienced no sanitary sewer overflows in 2018. We ask all sewer system customers to take
steps to prevent cooking grease and oil from entering the system. Please find the attachment
regarding the proper disposal of FATS, OIL, &GREASE (FOG) in your home to prevent sanitary
sewer overflows in city mains.
WASTEWATER PLANT PERFORMANCE The average daily flow at the wastewater plant was
0.235 mgd, which is about 39%of the plant's permitted capacity. Jefferson's WWTP discharges
into Naked Creek which flows into a section of the New River that is designated by the State of
North Carolina as Outstanding Resource Waters. As a result, the Town's discharge permit
contains some of the strictest limits issued by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality.
The tables below compare average measurements to limits for each parameter.
April through October

For the month of June, 2018 effluent BOD averaged 5.6 mg/I with a limit of 5.0 mg/I. You may
direct questions regarding water and wastewater issues to Tim Church at [phone].
Thank you for your cooperation as we continue to protect and enhance the waters of the New
River Basin.
