Dear Mr. Biggs:
The Division of Water Quality received the Town's request, dated April 27, 2004, to
construct an in-plant non-potable water system using treated wastewater effluent. Authorization
is hereby granted for the proposed system and any additional appurtenances associated with the
system. The existing potable water system shall be fully segregated from the proposed non-
potable water system.
Should the Town of Clayton wish to use the non-potable water system for on-site lawn
irrigation, the Town should contact this office for approval (along with the Division's Raleigh
Regional Office).
Language regarding the nonpotable water system will be incorporated in the NPDES permit
during the next renewal cycle (during 2008).
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Ms. Susan A.
Wilson, P.E., telephone number [phone], extension 510.
Sincerely,

Re: Non-Potable Water System
Little Creek Water Reclamation Facility
Town of Clayton, Johnston County
NUDES No. NCO025453
Dear Mr. Goodrich:
The Town.of Clayton desires to construct an in-plant non-potable water(NPW) system
for plant water use at the Little Creek Water Reclamation Facility. The project consists
of segregating potable and non-potable uses such that potable water is only used at the
existing control building, hand wash sinks, and emergency eyewash/shower locations.
Non.-potable water will be used for all other plant water needs such as influent bar screen
spray wash, clarifier surface spray, chemical solution make-up, sludge thickener spray
wash, process unit wash down, etc. We do not intend to utilize NPW for lawn irrigation
at this time. This project,will provide significant benefit to the Town of Clayton in the
fonn of reduced operating cost and conservation of potable water resource.
The NPW system components shall consist of a new skid-mounted packaged booster
pump station., fiberglass reinforced plastic building with concrete foundation,piping
modifications to the existing plant potable water system to fully segregate potable from
proposed non-potable sources as described above, site work, electrical and all associated
appurtertances. We understand from Susan Wilson of your office that a minor
modification to our current NPDF.S permit may be sufficient to cover the proposed NPW
system improvements.
