Inspection Summary:
A compliance inspection was conducted on October 14, 2019, Sarah Toppen and David May with NC Division of Water
Resources met on -site with J.J. Chadwick. He was listed as the new ORC on August 1, 2019.
Below is a list of the significant issues that have been documented during the inspection:
- Numerous tears in the lagoon liner. (pictures are attached following the inspection report)
- The irrigation equipment at the spray fields need replacement/repair.
Please, let our office know how and when these issues will be rectified.
The ORC stated that everything is currently working at the facility but that more repairs are in the process (ex. repairing the
spray heads). Other items in need of repair/replacement is the gates at the main entrance of the lagoon and across the
street at the spray fields. Also, the liner of the lagoon has numerous tears.
There was a Ground water violation in March 2019 at MW-3. Total Nitrate Nitrogen was 14.6 mg/L but the limit is 10mg/L.
The fields across the street from the lagoon were observed with high grass and fields need to be maintained.
Make sure all logs (Maintenance logs and and inspection logs) are kept and maintained.
The facility is in noncompliance due to some of the repairs needed at the facility. Continue to work repairs and let us know if
you have any questions.

permit: WQ0007283 Owner - Facility: Town of Pollocksville
Inspection Date: 10/15/2019 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Comment: The fields are not irrigated on very often because the spray irrigation equipment is not in good
condition. The ORC stated that he is working on replacing the spray heads in Zone 2 site 2
currently. The spray fields behind the lagoon were turned on during inspection. There are some
numerous spray heads that need repair.
There is no gates that can be locked to restrict access to the lagoon or spray fields since the
hurricanes. Section M. number 9. of the current permit states that public access to the irrigation
sites and wastewater treatment facilities shall be prohibited.
MW-3 was tagged but not locked. ORC stated he was going to get a lock for the well and the
ORC stated he would add new stickers to identify the proper well number.
