The assistance provided by you and Mr. Bob Stewart, the wastewater superintendent and operator in responsible charge (ORC) of the facility, was appreciated as it facilitated the inspection process. The inspection report is attached. The following observations were made: Triangle WWTP is permitted to discharge at a rate of 12.0 MGD and consist of: mechanical fine screens, mechanical grit removal, Parshall flume, three 5-stage biological nutrient removal (BNR) trains, four secondary clarifiers, five tertiary sand filters, post aeration ultraviolet disinfection, sludge lagoons, waste and return activated sludge pumping system, methanol, potassium hydroxide, and sodium hypochlorite storage and feed systems. The plant discharges to Northeast Creek, a Class WS-IV NSW water in the Cape Fear River basin. All primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment and post -treatment processes, especially the BNR system, were in good operational condition. One of the three BNR trains and two of the four clarifiers and was not in use because of low flow. The chemical feed systems for methanol, sodium aluminate, potassium hydroxide were all functioning well. 2. Sludge from the lagoon was removed recently. Construction of the sludge storage, dewatering, and loading facility was slightly behind schedule at the time of inspection. Once the construction is completed, the lagoon will serve as backup storage for wasted sludge. I Three standby power generators are tested under load monthly. The generators will be activated automatically when primary power is out. The generators have capacity to operate th�e0tire facility during nower outrage.

The facility discharges into the receiving waters designated as Northeast Creek, a stream classified as WS-IV, nutrient sensitive water (NSW) waters within the Cape Fear River Basin. 2. The Triangle WWTP is permitted to discharge at a rate of 12 MGD and consists of: mechanical fine screens, mechanical grit collection unit, influent pump station, parshall flume, three 5-stage BNR trains, four secondary clarifiers, five tertiary filters, UItraviolet disinfection, post aeration, sludge lagoons, waste and return activated sludge pumping system, and methanol, potassium hydroxide, and sodium hypochlorite storage and feed systems. 3. Chlorine, Dissolved Oxygen, pH, and Temperature are analyzed in-house. All other parameters are analyzed by Meritech Laboratories. 4, A file review of the plant records indicated that all records are being kept as required.

" The plant and laboratory was very clean and well maintained. No operational or maintenance issues were noted. Visitation and operations logs were reviewed and found to be complete and satisfactory. 6. A compliance evaluation inspection was also conducted of the facility's Stormwater Permit NCG110054 during the January 71h visit. All of the facility's stormwater outfalls were observed during the inspection. The facility has installed several berms at the Headworks to prevent overspray and excess washdown water from entering Outfall 005. This has complied with the feasible alternative practices in the SW Permit. In addition, the area downstream of Outfall 002 has become inundated due to beaver dams. This property is located on the periphery of the Army Corps of Engineers property. Contact Eric Alsmeyer with the Corps at 919-554-4884 regarding removal of the beavers. All outfalls were in excellent condition. 7. The stormwater pollution prevention plan (SP3) was reviewed. It contained all the required components and met all requirements. Qualitative and quantitative inspection records were available for review and found to be complete and acceptable. The overall conditions of the Durham County Triangle WWTP are compliant with Division standards.

As a result of the SWP3 compliance inspection there were several observations made that needed to be addressed within our Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Please note our response for each one of the observations made. "These were: • Observation #I: Documentation of any spill and corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts when they occur. Response: Section 4.2 of our Plan addressees this observation and is updated regularly. • Observation 42: The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan must be reviewed and updated annually. Response: Section 6.2 of our Plan addresses this observation, however, the word annually has been inserted into the language to further clarify our current practice of annual updates, see attachment # 1. • Observation #3: The plan must addresslincltide a feasibility study, whereby the possible elimination or reduction of exposure of pollutants to stormwater is assessed. Response: Roadway weep holes for stormwater collection system have had plugs placed within them. This will capture any small spill and can be opened after cleanup. • Observation 44: The plan must show employee signatures. Employee signature document that the employee has received training for spill response, cleanup procedures and preventive maintenance. Response: Section 5.3 of our Plan addressees this observation, however, at the time of this inspection the latest documentation was not copied into the Plan. The original training documents are kept in a separate file near the operations area of the administrative building. This oversight has been corrected and moving forward greater emphasis will be placed on keeping the documents in both places, see attachment #2. Should you have any questions, comments or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. S Frankie Olin }the United Watyt Project Manager, Triangle WWTP Attachments 1.

The objective of the evaluation is to assess the .overall effectiveness of this SWP3 and to modify and improve the SWP3, as appropriate. This annual evaluation is conducted by Triangle Wastewater Treatment Facility's SWP3 Team and typically occurs during the fourth quarter of each year. The evaluation includes the following elements: • Inspect storm water drainage areas for evidence of pollutants entering the drainage system; • Ensure the drainage area delineations remain accurate and the figures are updated, as necessary; • Assess whether improvements to BMPs or additional control measures are needed; and • Revise the list of significant materials, industrial activities and potential pollutant sources, as necessary. The Annual Site Compliance Inspection form contained in Appendix G will be used to record the findings of the evaluation. Completed inspection forms will be maintained in Appendix G of this SWP3. 6.2 PLAN REVISIONS Based on the findings of the Annual Site Compliance Evaluation, the SWP3 must be revised annually to reflect current conditions. Necessary facility changes will be implemented as soon as practical. Facility changes in design, construction, operations or maintenance that may impact the potential for storm water pollutants will also require the SWP3 to be amended. Once the SWP3 is revised, it must be signed by the Operations Manager. Section 1.3 Facility Certification will be re -certified with each SWP3 revision. This SWP3 is retained with the storm water records in the Triangle WWTP central files. �.°United Water United Water it$" Name of Training Coordinator: TRAINING DOCUMENTATION FORM Page 1 of 2 Phone Number: PIease complete the form in its entirety and forward to your local Human Resource Department.
