REGAN Secretary LINDA CULPEPPER Director Thomas Borden 1990 Landover Drive Clemmons, NC 27012 NORTH CAROLINA Environmental Quality December 16, 2019 Subject: General Wastewater Permit Inspection 1990 Landover Drive Certificate of Coverage # NCG550096 Forsyth County Dear Mr. Borden: On November 21, 2019, Gary Hudson of this office performed a Compliance Evaluation Inspection on the wastewater treatment system at 1990 Landover Drive in Clemmons, NC. Observations indicated that the subsurface sand filter was operating properly. Although the discharge pipe was unable to be located, there was no evidence of a discharge, as the creek bed was dry during the inspection. Please note some of the activities that must be conducted and documented, in addition to the laboratory analyses required if the system discharges: Septic tanks shall be inspected at least yearly to determine if solids need to be removed and pumped out every five years of when the solids level is found to be more than 1/3 of the liquid depth in any compartment. • The tablet chlorinator shall be inspected weekly to ensure there is an adequate supply of tablets for continuous operation. Be sure to order more tablets and replace them often enough to ensure continuous disinfection. If you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact Gary Hudson at (336) 776-9694.
