BOX 727 Yanceyville, NC 27379 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection Yanceyville WTP Permit No. NC0007323 Caswell County Dear Mr. Collie: On December 16, 2014, Jenifer Carter of the Winston-Salem Regional Office conducted an NPDES Wastewater Compliance Evaluation Inspection at the Town of Yanceyville's Water Treatment Plant. Brian Merritt, ORC, was present during the inspection. The inspection consisted of two parts: an on -site inspection of the treatment facility and a review of facility files and self -monitoring data. The following is a summary of findings during the inspection: A) Sludge levels in the settling ponds continue to better -maintained under Mr. Merritt. Although Mr. Merritt is able to stave off seepage from the dam of the larger lagoon by inspecting the dechlorinator tubes daily (to keep them from clogging), the Town needs to begin planning for repairing the concrete liner in order to properly maintain the treatment unit as required by the permit. B) Lab data corresponded correctly with data entered on the submitted Discharge Monitoring Reports. C) If not already done, please have an Annual Performance Report submitted to the Division, and provide a copy to users/customers of the Town's Water Treatment Plant, as required by Part II Section E-12 of your permit. Please refer to the enclosed report for more inspection details. The Division appreciates Mr. Merritt's efforts to maintain and operate the aging treatment system and hopes that the Town continues its good working relationship with him.

Skvarla, III Secretary On December 18, 2013, Ms. Jenifer Carter of the Winston-Salem Regional Office conducted a NPDES Wastewater Compliance Evaluation Inspection at the Town of Yanceyville's Water Treatment Plant. Brian Merritt, ORC, was present during the inspection. The inspection consisted of two parts: an on -site inspection of the treatment facility and a review of facility files and self -monitoring data. The following is a summary of findings during the inspection: A) Brian Merritt was hired as the ORC after the previous inspection. Since that time, he discovered that the first settling pond was being bypassed, and has since put it back into proper service. B) Sludge levels in the settling ponds are better maintained under Mr. Merritt, who said that sludge is due to be removed again in June or July of this year. Retaining walls around the lagoons are still in need of attention, but maintaining lower sludge levels has almost eliminated the permit limits violations that were a consistent problem in the past. C) Lab data corresponded correctly with data entered on the submitted Discharge Monitoring Reports. Overall record keeping is much improved. Mr. Merritt has made many improvements since the last inspection, including a vast improvement in record keeping, and returning the settling ponds to proper working condition. The Division greatly appreciates his efforts and hopes that the Town's good working relationship with him will continue.

Box 727 Yanceyville, NC 27379 Subject: Draft NPDES Permit NC0007323 Town of Yanceyville Water Treatment Plant Facility Class PC-1 Caswell County Dear Mr. Brigman: Dee Freeman Secretary Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit includes a number of changes in the monitoring requirements from those found in your current permit. These changes were made as part of the implementation of a modified NPDES strategy for wastewater discharges from conventional water treatment plants, which are being implemented throughout the state as permits are issued and/or renewed. A summary of these changes follows: • The monitoring requirement for Settleable Solids has been removed from the permit. • Monitoring for Turbidity has been changed from instream monitoring to monitoring of the effluent. • Monitoring requirements for Aluminum, Manganese, and Copper have been added based upon studies of discharges from conventional water treatment facilities. • Whole Effluent Toxicity monitoring has been added to the permit. Please note that while the result of the required test will be "pass" or "fail," at present this is a monitoring requirement only, with no associated compliance limit. • The monitoring frequency for most constituent parameters has been reduced to 2/month or quarterly. Quarterly monitoring should be performed to coincide with whole effluent toxicity testing. • A footnote has been added regarding the reporting and compliance determination of Total Residual Chlorine values. 1617 Mail Service Center, Ralegh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

Corey Basinger 585 Waughtown Street Winston Salem, NC 27107 Re: Town of Yanceyville WTP NC 0007323 {Notice of Deficiency-NOD-2012-MV-0016 issued May 17, 2012) Dear Mr. Basinger On behalf of the Town of Yanceyville, the Town and Envirolink, Inc. appreciates the opportunity to respond to the Notice of Deficiency issued on May 17, 2012 for failure to report a settable solids value on the January 2012 DMR for the week of 1/14/12. After investigating the above mentioned event by reviewing the plant logs and the laboratory chain of custody file, it has been concluded that that the Operator failed to collect a settable solid sample during the week ending 1/14/12. During the period of July 2011 through February 2012, Envirolink was using R&A Laboratories to analyze the compliance samples, including the settable solids parameter. Due to the issue surrounding this and other events at the wastewater treatment plant, Envirolink has changed its Operator in Responsible Charge and our method of analyzing settable solids. Since Envirolink is Field Certified for Settable Solids, the current ORC began analyzing the settable solids in house, March 1, 2012, to ensure proper monitoring and reporting per the NPDES Permit. Envirolink has also established Standard Operating Procedures to include a weekly compliance sampling schedule that will ensure the Operator is sampling the required parameters in accordance with the Permit. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the Notice of Deficiency. Please feel free to contact either Brian Merritt or myself with questions or additional details.

Box 727 Yanceyville, NC 27379 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection Yanceyville WTP Permit No. NC0007323 Caswell County Dear Mr. Brigman: Dee Freeman Secretary On January 25, 2012, Ms. Jenifer Carter of the Winston-Salem Regional Office conducted a NPDES Wastewater Compliance Evaluation Inspection at the Town of Yanceyville's Water Treatment Plant. Mr. Terry Klutz, ORC at the time, was present during the inspection. The inspection consisted of two parts: an on -site inspection of the treatment facility and a review of facility files and self -monitoring data. A review of the submitted self -monitoring data since the last inspection revealed several violations of Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and Settleable Solids (SS) limits during the July, August and September 2011. During the same period of time, there were several parameters that were not monitored at the frequency required. These violations have been addressed separately through the Division's monthly enforcement program. The following is a summary of findings during the inspection: A) EnviroLink took over operations of the plant in July 2011. Prior to that, R&A Labs had been paying plant staff to conduct field parameter tests. It appears that R&A did not provide proper oversight to ensure record keeping and maintenance of field equipment met permit requirements. It has been stated that R&A continued to pay staff to monitor just Settleable Solids at the time of the inspection. Mr. Klutz, of EnviroLink, also did not appear to have a good grasp on the record keeping, or lack thereof, during the inspection. It is my understanding that Mr. Klutz has been replaced since the inspection. This information has been shared with the Division Lab Certification Unit, which will handle any related compliance issues. B) As noted during at least the last five (5) inspections, the retaining walls around the two sludge lagoons are in need of repair. TSS and SS violations also suggest that sludge needs to be removed from the lagoons, as there was little remaining freeboard. If these items are not addressed before the next inspection, enforcement action for failure to maintain wastewater treatment facilities may be considered. C) Facility records were available for review with the exception of lab data/bench sheets to support pH data entered on the Discharge Monitoring Report for August 21, 2011. Lab data that was available corresponded correctly with data entered on the submitted Discharge Monitoring Reports. D) The permit expires on May 31, 2012. A renewal application has been submitted.

Matt Smith, Back -Up ORC, was present for the inspection. Neal McDuffie is the ORC. This type of inspection consists of two basic parts: an in -office review of facility files and self - monitoring data and an on -site inspection of the facility. This particular inspection evaluated . nine (9) areas, and observations from each area are addressed below: 1. Permit The permit became effective December 1, 2007 and will expire May 31, 2012. 2. Self -Monitoring Program A review of the monthly self -monitoring reports from January 2010 through December 2010 showed no limit violations. 3. Laboratory Research & Analytical Laboratories of Kernersville analyzes all samples for the facility except the following field samples: temperature, total residual chlorine, and pH. Documentation of thermometer verification was available during the inspection. R & A Labs last verified the thermometer on September 21, 2010. Meter calibration records are maintained according to the permit. The pH meter is calibrated everyday. 4. Flow Measurement Effluent flow is estimated based on filter backwash volumes. Approximately 40,000 gallons is discharged each day. This figure originated from the engineering specifications for the backwash system. 5. Sludge Handling & Disposal The Town of Yanceyville has a land application permit with DWQ Aquifer Protection Section for the removal of sludge from the plant's two lagoons. Synagro has not removed sludge from the lagoons since June 2008, but will likely re -visit the plant in the Spring of 2011. Please remember that records of sludge removal should be maintained at the facility.

Operations & Maintenance Town of Yanceyville performs all maintenance on the lagoons. However at the time of the inspection, both lagoons appeared as if very little maintenance has been performed since the last inspection. The lagoon furthest from the gate entrance had cattail growth and has very little freeboard remaining. In addition, the concrete retaining wall for this lagoon is crumbling in a state of disrepair. This observation has been made repeatedly in compliance evaluation inspection reports from our office. Please remember that these lagoons are part of the wastewater treatment process and should be maintained as necessary. 7. Facility Site Review The water treatment plant discharges decanted filter backwash water through a dual settlement lagoon system. Filters are washed approximately every other day during cooler months and every 3-4 days during the summer. A tablet dechlorination system was installed in 2009. Dechlorination tablets are added to the four -tube system approximately every 2 weeks. 8. Records/Reports The Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs), files, and lab data are maintained according to the permit. A copy of this data was available for review during the inspection. 9. Effluent/Receiving Waters The effluent is discharged into the lake below the settling basins. Ultimately, the discharge goes to Fullers Creek (WS-III, CA) in the Roanoke River Basin. The effluent appeared clear with no traceable solids. Please refer to the attached report for further details from the inspection.

Operations & Maintenance Town of Yanceyville performs all maintenance on the lagoons. Both lagoons appeared to have enough freeboard to last for several more months. It was noted that one lagoon had some cattail growth, which should be cleared out. In addition, the concrete retaining walls in both lagoons continue to fail and are in need of repair. This observation has been made repeatedly in compliance evaluation inspection reports from our office. It is important to maintain the integrity of the lagoons in order to keep all wastewater and sludge contained. These problems will ultimately need to be addressed. 7. Facility Site Review The water treatment plant discharges decanted filter backwash water through a dual settlement lagoon system. A tablet dechlorination system was installed in 2009. Dechlorination tablets are added to the four -tube system approximately every 2 weeks. Operators noted that the frequency of these tablets might need to increase in the colder winter months. 8. Records/Reports The organization of paperwork and records retention continues to be much improved at the plant since previous inspections. Please remember that the permit requires that you retain records of all monitoring information, including all calibration and facility maintenance records for a period of at least 3 years. Any records pertaining to sludge use and disposal shall be retained for a period of at least 5 years. 9. Effluent/Receiving Waters The effluent is discharged into the lake below the settling basins.

Sullins Governor Director May 15, 2009 David A. Parrish, Town Manager Town of Yanceyville PO Box 727 Yanceyville, NC 27379 Resources Dee Freeman Secretary Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection — NPDES Permit No. NC0007323 Yanceyville WTP — Caswell County Dear Mr. Parrish: Jenny Graznak of this office performed a Compliance Evaluation Inspection of the filter backwash wastewater at the Yanceyville WTP in Caswell County on May 13, 2009. Neal McDuffie, ORC, and Matt Smith, Back Up ORC, were present for the inspection. This type of inspection consists of two basic parts: an in -office review of facility files and self -monitoring data and an on -site inspection of the facility. This particular inspection evaluated nine (9) areas, and observations from each area are addressed below: 1. Permit The permit became effective December 1, 2007 and will expire May 31, 2012. This permit includes a new Fluoride monitoring requirement and a limit for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC). The new Fluoride requirement took effect on December 1, 2007. The new TRC limit is 17 microgramsAiter (0.017 milligrams/liter) and takes effect on June 1, 2009. 2. Self -Monitoring Program A review of the monthly self -monitoring reports from March 2008 through February 2009 showed no limit violations. 3. Laboratory Research & Analytical Laboratories of Kernersville analyzes all samples for the facility except the following field samples: temperature, total residual chlorine, and pH. R & A Labs last verified the thermometer on June 17, 2008. Documentation of thermometer verification was available during the inspection. Meter calibration records are maintained according to the permit. 4. Flow Measurement Effluent flow is estimated based on filter backwash volumes. Approximately 40,000 gallons is discharged each day. This figure originated from the engineering specifications for the backwash system. 5. Sludge Handling & Disposal The Town of Yanceyville has a land application permit with DWQ Aquifer Protection Section for the removal of sludge from the plant's two lagoons. Synagro removed sludge in June 2008. North Carolina Division of Water Quality, Winston-Salem Regional Office Location: 585 Waughtown St. Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27107 One Phone: 336-771-50001 FAX: 336-77146301 Customer Service: 1-877-623-6748 NorthCarolina Internet: www.ncwaterquality.org Natura!!rY An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer 1qN Records of sludge removal are maintained at the Town Hall. Please note that copies of sludge removal records should be maintained at the plant and made available to DWQ inspectors upon request. 6. Operations & Maintenance The lagoons at the plant look much better since sludge has been removed and the vegetation on the banks has been better maintained. However, it was noted that the grass clippings from mowing the banks ended up inside the lagoons. This will affect the quality of your effluent from the lagoons. Please see that the lawn maintenance staff is careful to avoid this from happening in the future. In addition, the concrete retaining walls in both lagoons continue to fail and are in need of repair. This observation has been made repeatedly in compliance evaluation inspection reports from our office. It is important to maintain the integrity of the lagoons in order to allow for appropriate settling and high quality effluent. These problems need to be addressed. 7. Facility Site Review The water treatment plant discharges decanted filter backwash water through a dual settlement lagoon system. A tablet dechlorination system was installed several months ago in preparation for the new Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) limit, which will become effective June 1, 2009. 8. Records/Reports The organization of paperwork and records retention continues to be much improved at the plant since previous inspections. Please remember that .the permit requires that you retain records of all monitoring information, including all calibration and facility maintenance records for a period of at least 3 years. Any records pertaining to sludge use and disposal shall be retained for a period of at least 5 years. 9. Effluent/Receiving Waters The effluent is discharged into the lake below the settling basins. Ultimately, the discharge goes to Fullers Creek (WS-III, CA) in the Roanoke River Basin. The effluent appeared clear with no traceable solids. Please refer to the attached report for further details from the inspection. If you have any questions concerning this report, please contact Ms. Graznak or me at (336) 771-4960.

Please provide a description of existing or substantially constructed wastewater treatment facilities: Two lagoons in series (100,000 gallons and 304,000 gallons respectfully). f. Please provide a description of the proposed wastewater treatment facilities: A new WTP is to be proposed in 1994 for approximately 1.0 MGD. A new lake (Farmer Lake) has already been constructed and Country Line Creek reclassified to WS-II. This new lake currently provides additional water directly into the old WS-II lake where both intake and discharge (near the spillway) occur. A new discharge location will be needed (if alternatives are not available) for the new WTP. The old water supply lake and creek should be reclassified (when the new discharge begins) to Class C waters. See attached map for potential site location of new facility and existing WTP. g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: Residual chlorine. a • h. Pretreatment Program (POTWs only) in development approved should be required XXX not needed 2. Residuals handling and utilization/disposal scheme: Sludge physically removed from lagoons as needed, dried and taken to landfill. a If residuals are being land applied, please specify DEM Permit No. NA ® present. Residuals Contractor Telephone No. b. Residuals stabilization: PSRP _ PFRP _ Other Unknown X C. Landfill: d. Other disposal/utilization scheme (Specify): 3.

Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grants Funds or are any public monies involved. (municipals only)? NA 2. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity) requests: 3. Important SOC, JOC or Compliance Schedule dates: Please indicate) L-7 4b 4. Alternative Analysis Evaluation: Has the facility evaluated all of the non -discharge options available? Please provide regional perspective for each option evaluated.*** Spray Irrigation: no Connection to Regional Sewer System: Subsurface: no Other disposal options: No other options to the WSRO other than pumping to the method is economically feasible. no appear to be reasonable Yanceyville WWTP if this ***While the new WTP is being designed, these alternatives should be reviewed and considered. If the old WTP were to remain active, its discharge could be pumped to the WWTP if economically feasible in order to eliminate this discharge point and NPDES Permit. 5. Other Special Items: PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS WSRO recommends the permit be issued based on the attached letter from Mr. Darrell Russell which states that alternatives are not options due to the proposed relocation of the Water Treatment Plant.
