Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Wyeth Collection System
Permit WQCSDO148
Lee County
Dear Mr. Mulcahy,
On Thursday, February 20, 2020. Zach Thomas of the Raleigh Regional Office of the Division of
Water Resources conducted a compliance evaluation inspection of the collection system for the
Wyeth facility. The purpose of this inspection was to ensure compliance with the subject permit.
During the inspection, the presence and cooperation of Chuck Powell, EFIS Manager, Connor
Jarvis, El -IS Associate, and other staff was helpful and appreciated.
This compliance evaluation inspection consisted of the followine:
• Review of the 15A NCAC 02T .0403 permit requirements;
• Review of the owner'facility information;
• Review of records;
• On -site inspection of the collection system and lift station Units
Findings during the inspection and file review were as follo►vs:
I. The collection system consists of manholes, one high priority line, and six (6) lift stations, All
wastewater is received by the City of Sanford Collection System (WQC"S00047) and is treated at the
City of Sanford WWTP (NC0024147),
Two sanitary sewer overflow incidents have occurred since the last inspection (2I15'2018).
Correspondence for these will handled separately from this inspection report.
3. A map of the system is kept with facility staff and includes the locations of pipes, manholes, grease
traps, and lift stations. All records are kept in a digital, internal system referred to as CAMS.
Maintenance, inspection, and system records are compliant and are reviewed by facility staff. The
system assists with operation and maintenance by sending reminders and helping with scheduling.

4. The facility has a grease control and prevention program where an email is sent to kitchen staff every
January and July reminding staff of proper grease control and to clieck and pump grease traps. Traps
are typically pumped every 90 days and were last pumped on 1/3 1 i2020 by Donathan Septic Service.
5. The lift stations are monitored by a SCADA type system (Delta V) that relays to the main building
automation system. The stations have redundancy for alarms to ensure that staff is notified if any
issues arise (high water, etc.). All six (6) stations were inspected and the wet «ells appeared in good
condition. The float alarms were operational at all stations except for Buildings 104 & 107; staff
indicated they would fix the floats immediately. The lift stations are connected to permanent
generators that are used around the facility with the exception of the pl-1 building 104 station. There
is no connection to a generator, but the station has the ability to allow overflow,`flow to be diverted to
other areas of the system if an issue occurs. Staff anticipates connecting this station to a backup
generator in the near future. Please not j, this office wheit the floats have been repaired
6. There is one (1) high priority line for this system. It appeared in good condition and is checked
weekly. The entire system is observed and inspected once per year.
Please address the conditions outlined in number(s) 5 of this letter and notify the inspector
at the contact information below within 30 days of receipt of this letter. If you have
questions or comments about the inspection, this report or the requirements to take corrective
action (if applicable), please contact:
