This project will connect Fletcher Academy and Park Ridge Hospital to public sewer and allow them to eliminate their lagoon discharge system. The project will also allow for the abandonment of two sewer pump stations. The County has been working with property owners along the route to secure easements for the construction. They have secured some of the sewer easement with others still in negotiation. The County has committed to use eminent domain to secure the easements if necessary. Thank you, and should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at 828 694-6560. Sincerely, L. Marcus A.

Version: May 2017 Page 3 Jurisdictional Determination Request F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One) ❑✓ I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminary JD for the property identified herein. A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property. PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is "preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do not expire. I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein. An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years (subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05- 02). F] I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information to inform my decision. G. ALL REQUESTS Map of Property or Project Area.

Please include a justification in the label regarding why the feature is non jurisdictional (i.e. "Isolated", "No Significant Nexus", or "Upland Feature"). Please include the acreage or linear length of these features as appropriate. For Preliminary Jurisdictional Determinations: ■ Wetland and non -wetland features should not be identified as Jurisdictional, 404, Waters of the United States, or anything that implies jurisdiction.

Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.

KING STREET HENDERSONVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA 28792 April 2017 Fletcher Academy Necessity Narrative Introduction: Fletcher Academy Incorporated (FAI) operates and maintains a wastewater treatment facility in northern Henderson County that operates under permit number (NC 0036641). The treatment facility is an aerated lagoon system with chlorination and dechlorination systems at the discharge location. Over the past several years, Fletcher Academy has had difficulty meeting the permitted discharge limits. Specifically, the facility has received notices of violation and assessments for civil penalties for failure to meet BOD and NH3 discharge limits. These violations have occurred despite the best efforts of FAI to operation the facility as efficiently as possible. Some of these efforts have included the removal of the Fletcher Academy laundry, installation of a dechlorination system on the influent side of the lagoon, removal of sludge from the lagoon and numerous other activities recommended through NCDEQ technical assistance visits. The conclusion is that the lagoon facility simply not able to meet the discharge limits due to dated technology. In 2015, FAI began the process of investigating alternatives for wastewater treatment and disposal. Over the course of several months, it was determined that the best long term solution was to abandon the lagoon and connect to the Cane Creek Water and Sewer District sewer system located approximately 2 miles away. FAI and Cane Creek/Henderson County recently executed an agreement for the extension of the Cane Creek sewer system to the FAI property. A copy of that agreement is attached with this document. The connection to the Cane Creek system will eliminate the discharge from the FAI lagoon and will allow for the abandonment and decommissioning of the facility. The Cane Creek sewer collection system connects to the Metropolitan Sewer District of Buncombe County system for final treatment and discharge at the treatment facility in Woodfin. Necessity: Based on the efforts of FAI to operate the treatment facility as efficiently as possible, it is realistic to believe that future violations of the permit limits of BOD and NH3 will continue to occur. Since the existing process utilizes a lagoon and floating aerators for treatment, there are limited options to optimize the treatment process. In the past FAI has re -circulated effluent from pre -chlorination back to cell #I in the lagoon. This has helped to reduce BOD levels in the effluent. Fletcher Academy has undertaken the following efforts to improve the operation of the facility: Fletcher Academy Necessity Narrative Page 1 -Elimination of the laundry on the Fletcher Academy campus thereby reducing flow to the treatment facility by approximately 10,000 — 15,000 GPD and eliminating the possibility of toxic discharges to the sewer system. This was completed on July I, 2015. -A dechlorination tablet feeder system was installed at the influent phase of the sewer system before discharge to the lagoon. This was installed in June 2014. - Monitoring in the lagoon of COD/BOD began in June, 2009 to allow for an adjustment of effluent discharge levels facilitating improved BOD discharge levels. - Elimination of possible toxic chemical discharges from the Aquatics facility at the Lelia Patterson Center by preventing accidental discharges from entering the floor drains and ultimately into the sanitary sewer system. -Continued education and outreach with Park Ridge Health and all sewer users for the elimination of any toxic substances discharged to the sewer system (ongoing). -Various repairs to the sewer collection system to help improve the quality of the influent wastewater to the treatment plant. Many of these repairs included discontinuing obsolete terracotta piping that was subject to infiltration and stagnate conditions as a result of age and poor manhole construction. -During the past several years FAI staff has met with Fred Sommers of the NCRWA as well as Don Price with DWQ and held Technical Assistance visits (TAs) TA with the Morrisville Regional Office. As result of their recommendations FAI has installed a 2000 gallon aerated holding tank at the laundry, installed an additional 15 HP floating aerator in cell # I, replaced all three floating curtains between cells I and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, and dredged excessive sludge from cells 3 and 4 several times. Virtually all recommendations from past TA's have been completed. Selected Alternative for Wastewater Treatment and Disposal: As noted earlier, FAI has entered into an agreement with Henderson County and the Cane Creek Water and Sewer District to extend the public sewer system to the FAI site. The sewer system will be extended approximately two miles to the site and when completed will connect to the FAI sewer collection system upstream of the existing lagoon. At that time, all wastewater from FAI (and associated facilities) will be collected through the public sewer system and transported to the MSD of Buncombe County WWTP for treatment and disposal. Based on the agreement, FAI will contribute to the cost of the extension of the Cane Creek sewer collection system. The extension is currently scheduled to be designed, permitted, constructed and placed into operation on or before December 31, 2019. At that time, FAI will cease to discharge new wastewater to the lagoon treatment system. Fletcher Academy Necessity Narrative Page 2 Once the new collection system is operational and FAI is no longer discharging to the lagoon, FAI will begin the process of the lagoon closure. FAI will follow the NCDEQ Guidelines for the Closure of Permitted Wastewater- Ponds and Lagoons. Prior to connection to the Cane Creek Sewer System, FAI will sample the lagoon wastewater in accordance with the permit conditions. FAI will work with NCDEQ and the Cane Creek Water and Sewer District to dewater the lagoon by discharging to the new sewer system or through a pump and haul permit issued by DEQ. Once dewatered, FAI will sample the remaining sludge per DEQ protocol. Following testing, FAI will work with DEQ to dispose of the sludge by either leaving in place or by land application. FAI will work with the Asheville Regional Office during lagoon closure process. The schedule for the final closure will be established during the sampling and testing process listed above. Certification: As noted above, the FAI treatment system is operating as efficiently as possible under the guidance of James and James Environmental. FAI has incorporated and acted on all recommendations provided during NCDEQ technical assistance inspections and by various consultants. Based on this, it is our opinion that the FAI treatment system cannot be operated in a manner that would achieve compliance with the final permit limits. We believe the FAI treatment system could be expected to meet the following effluent limits if the system is operated at maximum efficiency: Recommended Effluent Limits as follows: TSS — Same Fecal Coliform — Same BOD — 75 mg/I NH3 — winter — 20 mg/I - Summer — 10 mg/l Or 20 mg/I all year Fletcher Academy Necessity Narrative Page 3
