A letter of request for Authorization to Construct was received April 24, 2007, by the

This authorization results in no increase in design or permitted capacity and is awarded

Installation of an odor control system for the influent headworks structure, consisting of
installing FRP covers over the headworks structure and an eight-foot diameter odor
scrubber system with a 200 cfm blower, and associated piping, in conformity with the
project plans, specifications, and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved
by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
This Authorization to Construct is issued in accordance with Part III, Paragraph A of
NPDES Permit No. NCO025453 issued October 5, 2006, and shall be subject to revocation
unless the wastewater treatment facilities are constructed in accordance with the conditions and
limitations specified in.Permit No. NC0025453.
The sludge generated from these treatment facilities must be disposed of in accordance
with G.S. 143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality.
In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of
nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may
be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater
treatment or disposal facilities.
