Subject: Pretreatment Review of Industrial Waste Survey (IWS)
Program: Town of West Jefferson, Ashe County
NPDES Permit Number: NCO020451
Dear Mr. Patrick:
The Pretreatment, Emergency Response, and Collection Systems (PERCS) Unit of the Division of
Water Resources has reviewed the Industrial Waste Survey (IWS) for the Town of West Jefferson.
This IWS was received by the Division on March 25, 2019. Additional information was requested
and was received on July 9, 2019.
The review indicates that overall the IWS is adequate and meets the minimum requirements of
40 CFR 403.8 (f)(2). Proper completion of an Industrial Waste Survey is also required by Section
IV (C) of your NPDES permit. Please refer to the Comprehensive Guidance for North Carolina
Pretreatment Programs (Comprehensive Guide) for additional information and examples.
Please remember it is the responsibility of the POTW to continue efforts to ensure that any
Significant Industrial Users (SIUs), as defined by NCAC 15A 2H .0903(b)(9) (A) through (D), are
identified and subsequently added to the Town's pretreatment program. This includes
evaluation of new IUs before they commence discharge and evaluation of existing IUs
determined to be not SIUs that make changes to their process.
Next IWS Due Date: The IWS was conducted primarily in 2019. Your next updated IWS is due on
April 1, 2024, unless conditions at the POTW change significantly and thus warrant an earlier
submittal.
Thank you for your continued cooperation with the Pretreatment Program. If you have any
questions or comments, please contact me at [phone] [email: [e-mail]]
or Deborah Gore, Unit Supervisor at [phone] [email: Debora [e-mail]].
