The assistance and cooperation of Mr. Paul Smith, Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC), were greatly appreciated. Inspection findings are summarized below and an inspection report is attached for your records. The facility is located at the south end of Lori Road, on the northwest corner of US Highway 29 and Narrow Gauge Road (State Road 2252) in Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. The treated wastewater is discharged from the WWTP to an unnamed tributary to Lick Fork Creek, which is currently classified as Class C waters in the Roanoke River Basin. Site Review The facility was clean and well -secured. The treatment system was inspected and found to be operational. No discrepancies from the permit were noted. The outfall was also inspected and discharge was clear and free of solids and foam. Access to the discharge point was well -maintained. The facility uses ultraviolet (UV) light for disinfection. The UV system was operational at the time of inspection and replacement bulbs and parts were available in case of malfunction. During previous inspections, the UV system was inoperable and no spare parts were available. The improvement of the UV system and spare parts inventory is appreciated. Documentation Review Ms. Taylor -Smith evaluated laboratory data during the inspection. Comparison of lab reports and field monitoring data with discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) showed no concerns or errors. Chain of custody records were available and complete.

The assistance and cooperation of Mr. Paul Smith was greatly appreciated. Inspection findings are summarized below. The WWTP is located at the south end of Lori Road, on the northwest corner of US Highway 29 and Narrow Gauge Road, In Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. The plant discharges wastewater into an unnamed tributary to Lick Fork Creek, which is currently classified as class C, Trout waters in the Roanoke River basin. Site Review The facility was clean and well secured. The treatment system was inspected and found to be operational. No discrepancies from the permit were noted. The outfall was also inspected and there was no discharge at the time of inspection. The discharge point appeared free of pollutant indicators and was in very good condition. Access to the discharge point was well maintained. The facility utilizes an ultraviolet (UV) light system for disinfection. At the time of the inspection the UV system was not operational. Mr. Smith explained that this was due to the outer glass tubing freezing and breaking. You should consider keeping a spare housing on hand along with the bulbs and other replacement parts currently available to ensure the continued functionality of the UV system.

Items that needed corrective action: 3. The grass will be cut and kept to a minimum. The corrosion will be inspected to determine the best way to treat. 4. We are currently seeking to replace the UV light. The system that is used is no longer manufactured and we are aggressively trying to find a replacement bulb for the system. Until we find replacement bulbs we will continue to use chlorine and dechlor for disinfection to comply with the effluent parameters. 5. A replacement blower has been purchased and is on site at the wastewater plant. 6. We will have someone to inspect the generator and replace the propane tank that was stolen. 7. A log book has been started to document the operation and maintenance of the facility as of February 1 st. 9. During the next permit renewal cycle we will change the permit application to include the UV system and the clarifier designation. 10. The 2008 Annual Compliance Report has been completed and submitted to the Division of Water Quality. 11. A new designation form for ORC and backup ORC will be completed and mailed to the Division of Water Quality to include the current ORC Paul Smith and a designated Backup ORC. I will complete a form for the ORC and find a person to fill the backup ORC position in a timely manner as to comply with the requirements of the permit.

Curl, Owner Curl Modular Homes 707 North English Street Greensboro, NC 27405 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection NPDES Permit P49989334@6:- ,l,1C6)C-'7'7/.3sS Hidden Valley Wastewater Treatment Plant Curl Modular Homes Rockingham County Dear Mr. Curl: Dee Freeman Secretary 1. Mr. Ron Boone of the Winston-Salem Regional Office (WSRO) of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ or Division) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the Hidden Valley wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) on 12 January 2009. The assistance and cooperation during the inspection, of Mr. Paul Smith, Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC), was greatly appreciated. Inspection findings are summarized below and an inspection report is attached for your records. 2. The facility is located at the south end of Lori Road, on the northwest corner of US Highway 29 and Narrow Gauge Road (State Road 2552), in Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. The treated wastewater is discharged from the WWTP to an unnamed tributary to Lick Fork Creek, which is currently classified as Class C waters in the Roanoke River basin. SITE REVIEW 3. The facility was clean and well secured. The plant itself, as well as the grounds, could use a bit of maintenance. The grass was long and needed to be cut. The plant itself has small areas that are beginning to exhibit some corrosion. This should be stopped before it gets out of control. The treatment system was examined and found to be operational. No discrepancies were noted. The outfall was also visited; there was no discharge at the time of the inspection but the receiving water was free of pollutant indicators and appeared to be in pristine condition. 4. The facility uses ultraviolet (UV) light for disinfection. The UV was inoperable during the inspection and Mr. Smith was using chlorine and dechlorination tablets in its place. You 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 �gtura��� An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer Mr. Fred D. Curl, Owner Curl Modular Homes Hidden Valley WWTP NPDES Permit NCO077135 Page2 of 3 should keep spare UV bulbs on hand at all times to prevent the need to use chlorine and dechlorination tablets. 5. One of the two blowers was also down during the inspection. Obviously, this unit should also be repaired as soon as possible. This was also noted in the November 2006 inspection. 6. There is a generator on site but according to Mr. Smith it has not been operated for many years. It is unknown whether the generator can operate. It appears to be large enough to be able to fully operate the plant should it lose power. You should strongly consider getting the generator running again. This will help keep the plant compliant in the event of an extended power outage. DOCUMENTATION REVIEW 7. Mr. Smith's operator visitation records were reviewed and found to be complete and current. However, he did not have an operation/maintenance log. Mr. Smith needs to begin keeping an operation/maintenance log in which he annotates all operation and maintenance of the facility. Please note that this is his responsibility as the ORC, however, you are ultimately responsible for all such records. Should the operation of the facility change to another operator at any time in the future, you must retain all operation and maintenance records: 8. Discharge monitoring reports (DMR) were reviewed and compared with laboratory reports. No mistakes or transcription errors were noted. Pace Analytical Laboratories performs non -field tests and Mr. Smith performs all other field lab tests. All lab data, including chains of custody, was complete and current. 9. A complete copy of the permit was available on site.

Curl Curl's Rentals 707 North English Street Greensboro, North Carolina 27405 Dear Mr. Curl: Michael F. Easley, Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources February 6, 2008 SUBJECT: WQCSD0222 Collection System Inspection Hidden Valley Estates Rockingham County Coleen H. Sullins, Director Division of Water Quality An inspection of your collection system was conducted on December 19, 2007 by David Russell of this office. An earlier informational letter was sent to your address that detailed the requirements for collection systems that are deemed to be permitted. I would like to remind you that these requirements for sewer collection systems were first established in 15 NCAC .02H .0200 in March 2000 and are now found in 15 NCAC 2T .0403. 1. O & M Plan- The operation and maintenance plan should list the preventative maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory, and include a Spill Response Action Plan (listed on page 4 of the inspection). Testing frequency for any emergency equipment should also be included in this plan. 2. Collection System Map -A map of the collection system must be available and maintained with any additions to the system. The map should indicate the line size, pipe material, flow direction, approximate age of the sewer, and number of active service taps. 3. Right -of Way- The sewer line right-of-ways should be maintained to allow access to the sewer lines for inspection and repair. The dates of the work performed can be noted on the map or a log could be used for documentation. (See example form) 4. Observation- A general observation of the entire system must be conducted every year and a log (or map) should be maintained to document these observations. Where there are areas that are visible to the general public, right of way maintenance has been conducted or where sewer cleaning has occurred, the "observation" requirement has essentially been met for that section of line. The lines that are not normally seen by the public or maintenance crews are of main concern for this "observation " requirement. (See example form) 5. Grease education- Privately owned collection systems must distribute grease education materials to the users of the system twice per year. (Attached is an example of the type bilingual document that has been used by others). If sewer overflows are caused by grease, these documents shall be distributed more often. 6. Overflows- Any sewer overflows or bypasses that reach surface waters or exceed 1000 gallons (on the ground) must be reported within 24 hours to the Division. (Reporting after hours or on weekends and holidays should be to the Division of Emergency Management at 1-800-858-0368 or 1-919-733-3300). A follow-up 5-day report is also required which verifies the cause of the spill and any actions taken to diminish the impacts and to prevent a recurrence. A press release to all electronic and print news media outlets that provide general coverage in the county where the discharge occurred is required within 48-hours of first knowledge of the spill for all discharges of at least 1000 gallons to surface waters. If there is a spill of at least 15,000 gallons to surface waters oe NCarolina J1 dAmally North Carolina Division of Water Quality 585 Waughtown Street Phone (336) 771-5000 Customer Service Winston-Salem Regional Office Winston-Salem, NC 27107 Fax (336) 771-4630 1-877-623-6748 Internet: a,ww.ncwaterquality.org An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer — 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper a public notice must also be issued in a newspaper having general circulation in the County where the spill occurred and in the County immediately downstream. Contact this office if you need any forms or further information on this topic. Records of the spills that are less than 1000 gallons and do not reach surface waters should also be maintained as this information can be utilized to identify obstructions to the lines or excessive infiltration / inflow (1/1). Comply with this immediately for any overflows or bypasses. 7. Documentation- Maintain all documentation for at least 3 years. 8. Prevent Discharges- Maintain and operate the system, "at all times to prevent discharge to land or surface waters, and to prevent any contravention of groundwater standards or surface water standards". It is recommended that older sewer systems and systems that have experienced repeated overflows have at least 10% of the system cleaned each year. Smaller systems not experiencing overflows, should clean half of the system every five years or 1/3 every three years and a record of this information should be maintained for review. You may wish to check the website on collection systems at: <http://h2o.enr.state.nc.uslperesICollection%20SystemsICollectionSystemsHome.html> Your system was found to be in compliance with the regulations for collection systems. Should you have any other questions concerning this correspondence or the requirements relating to collection systems, please contact Steve Mauney at 336-771-4969. Sincerely, Steve W.
