Dear Mr. Jones
On June 7, 2019 Kelli Park, of this office, met with you and performed a Compliance
Evaluation Inspection of the wastewater treatment system located at the above address.
The State requires the Division of Water Resources to inspect these types of systems at
least once every five years. The violations found•from the inspection outlined below:
1) The chlorine you are using is pool grade. Via the permit wastewater grade chlorine
must be added to the system for proper disinfection. Information was shared with
you during the inspection about the appropriate tablets to use. Please begin using
the correct chlorine as soon as possible.
2) The effluent has not been consistently tested by a laboratory. Water samples from
the effluent are required to be analyzed at least once a year by a certified
laboratory. These records are required to be maintained and should be shared with
NCDEQ upon request. A copy of the permit monitoring requirements and the
certified laboratories to do the analysis were given to you at the time of inspection
for reference of what should be monitored when you notice any discharge coming
out of the pipe during the year.
Failure to properly operate and maintain the system can result in expensive repair costs
as well as failure of the system to properly treat the wastewater. If you have any questions
regarding maintenance, operations, the permit, or this inspection do not hesitate to call
us.
Please keep this letter with your records for the system along with copies of invoices from
the Division for the annual permit fee, the Certificate of Coverage, records of septic tank
pumping, maintenance and repair records, etc.
