NORTH CAROLINA DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY
Revised August 1, 2008 1
Who Is Covered Under This Permit?
This permit covers discharges of treated domestic
wastewater from single family residences at flows not to
exceed 1000 gallons per day. Other types of facilities
discharging less than 1000 gallons per day of treated
domestic wastewatermay be covered under this permit
with the approval of the Division.
Changes in Reissued General Permit
The previous General Permit expired July 31, 2007. The
permit has been reissued for an additional five years. The
new permit contains the following significant changes
from the previous version:
• Dechlorination is now required for all facilities
installing' chlorination after, the effective date of the
final permit.
Risers will be required on all new septic tanks
making them easier to locate.
There were also changes made to the Notice of Intent
(NOI) which is filed to gain coverage under this permit.
The NOI requires updated buffer requirements aligning
with 15A NCAC 02T .0506, and the sign -off of a
professional engineer for all new systems.
Key Permit Requirements
• Annual sampling of the effluent from the system is
required. The parameters to be sampled can be found
in Part I, Section A. A North Carolina certified
laboratory should be contacted to perform the
analytical monitoring. A list of certified laboratories
can be obtained by calling the Division.
• All samples should be collected before the effluent
joins or is diluted by any other wastestream, water.or
substance. (Part II, Section D:1)
• The permittee shall give notice to the Division of any
planned physical alterations or additions to the
system that could significantly increase the quantity
of pollutants discharged or introduce new pollutants
to the discharge. These alterations include any types
of residence/facility expansions. (Part I1, Section
E:3)
• Submission of monitoring reports is not required. All
monitoring information must be retained on site for a
period of 3 years. (Part II, Section E:1)
Minimum Treatment System Requirements
System requirements for existing (previously
constructed) systems are a septic tank, sand filter and
disinfection apparatus. All existing facilities adding
chlorination after August 1, 2007 will also be required to
add dechlorination. System requirements for a new (not
yet constructed) system are a septic tank, primary and
secondary (or recirculating) sand filters,
chlorination/dechlorination (or equivalent means of
disinfection) and post -aeration apparatus.
Operation and Maintenance
In order to protect water quality and to ensure proper
operation of domestic wastewater systems, the following
measures should be taken:
• Check the septic tank every year to see if solids
should be removed.
• Have the septic tank pumped out every three to five
years. Contact a local septic service/repair company
from the yellow pages:
• Inspect disinfection and dechlorination _equipment
(if applicable) weekly to confirm proper operation.
• If a chlorinator and/or dechlorinator is installed,
replace tablets whenever necessary.
Tips for Maintaining Your Septic Tank
The septic tank is usually a watertight concrete box buried
in the ground outside the house. Wastewaters from the
house, including the toilets, shower, bathtub, washing
machine and dishwasher flow into the tank. Heavier solid
materials settle to the bottom and the liquid flows out of
the tank into a soil`drainfield. Both the septic tank and
drainfield must be properly maintained for the system to
work correctly for many years. Some tips for maintaining
your septic system are:
• Do not put too much water into the septic system.
Try to conserve water wherever possible.
• Do not add materials such as chemicals, sanitary
napkins, or other foreign objects.
• Restrict the use of your garbage disposal.
• Do not pour grease or cooking oils down the drain.
• Have the solids pumped out of the septic tank every
3-5 years.
• Keep automobiles and heavy equipment off of the
septic tank and drain field.
Chlorination and Dechlorination Tablets
If the treatment system has a chlorinator or dechlorinator,
it is important that there is an adequate supply of tablets
to ensure proper operation. There will usually be a white
PVC pipe sticking up from the chlorinator/dechlorinator
where the tablets should be inserted. Tablets can be

obtained from most plumbing supply stoles. Make sure 4) Does a certified lab need to be used to analyze
that the tablets are certified for wastewater use. Chlorine samples?
tablets are NOT the same .type of chlorineused for Yes, a North Carolina certified lab must be used to
swimming pools. perform analytical monitoring. The only exception to
this rule is when measuring the value of pH. pH
Signs of Septic System Problems values should be measured in the field because they
may change considerably between when the sample
Some of the signs that your septic system may be having is pulled and it is analyzed at the laboratory. A list of
problems are: certified labs is available from the Division.
• Sewage backing up into your toilets, tubs or sinks.
• Slowly draining fixtures; particularly after it. has
rained.
• The smell of raw sewage accompanied by soggy soil
over the drainfield.
e Sewage discharging over the ground or in nearby
ditches or woods.
If you see any of these signs, contact a septic repair
company from the yellow pages in your area.
Mehl -of -Way
Issuance of this general permit does not relieve the
permittee from obtaining all necessary right-of-way or
easement rights to discharge wastewater on or across
another property.
Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to submit the monitoring results
annually?
No. The submission of monitoring reports for this
permit is not required. There are no standardized
Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) associated
with this permit. All monitoring results should be
kept on site for three years. The Division may
request these reports for review at any time. (Part 1I,
Section E:l)
2) Do I need to employ a certified wastewater
treatment plant operator to manage and run the
system?
Not at this time. The Division's Operator Training
and Certification Unit does not currently plan to
classify these types of facilities for the purposes of
needing a certified operator. The requirement was
left in the permit at this time with clarification, in the
event that classification was assigned in the future.
(Part 1I, Section C:1)
3) Where do I find my stream classification?
The stream classification, i.e. WS-IV, C, Tr, etc. can
usually be found in the Certificate of Coverage. If
you are unsure of your stream classification, you can
contact the NPDES Permitting Program.
S) What If I Sell My Property?
The Division views changes of name or ownership as
a minor modification. and requires the Director's
approval. Name and ownership changes require you
to complete a Name/Ownership Change Form. The
forms are available by contacting the NPDES
Permitting Program at [phone].
6) When does my permit expire and.how do I renew
it?
The expiration date of the permit is on the first page
of the General Permit. This General Permit expires
on July 31, 2012. Approximately 180 days prior the
expiration of the General Permit, you will receive a
renewal notice in the mail from the Division: "

The Certificate of Coverage (CoC) specific to your property was last issued on August 1, 2002.
The Division needs information from you to determine if coverage under NCG550000 is still
necessary.
➢ If your property still has a wastewater system like the ones described in the enclosed
Technical Bulletin, you must renew the subject CoC. Complete the enclosed form and
submit it to the address on the form.
➢ If you are not sure what type of system your property has, contact Larry Frost in the NC
DENR Asheville Regional Office at. That person [or other staff members] can help you
determine if you should renew your CoC.
➢ If you know that your property no longer discharges wastewater, contact meat the
address or phone number listed below to request rescission of the CoC.
➢ This information request does not pertain to the Annual Fee of $50.00 billed
seuarately by the Division's Budzet Office. No monev is reauired for this
procedure. The Annual Fee is like the fee you annually pay the DMV for the sticker on
your vehicle's license plate. Renewal of your CoC is like the renewal of your Driver's
License [ca. every five years].

information within 30 days of receipt of this letter:
1. A letter requesting the renewal.
2. The completed invoice form (copy attached).
3. A processing fee of $240. The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as NCDEHNR.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger penalties
may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the expiration date of the permit, or if
continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be allowed to expire. Operation of the waste treatment works or
continuation of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in
assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.

Dear Mr. Claude:

November 29, 1993
Subject: Certified Operator Requirements
Single Family Treatment Systems
NPDES Permit. No. NCG550514
Buncombe County
During February of this year, public hearings were held on proposed changes to modify the
operator certification rules. The proposed rules included a requirement that single-family
discharge systems would be classified wastewater treatment facilities, which would require
an annual inspection by a certified operator. The intent of the rule was to insure that the
systems are being properly operated and maintained.
During the public comment period, a significant amount of comments, statements and
additional information was submitted. As a result, the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission amended the proposed rules. The rule, as adopted and
effective July 1, 1993, now requires single-family discharging systems to be classified
only if they are permitted after July 1, 1993 or if upon inspection by the Division of
Environmental Management (DEM) it is found that the system is not being adequately
operated and maintained. Systems can be inspected by DEM during routine compliance
inspections, permit renewals, or complaint investigations. Once a system is classified, it
will be required to have at a minimum, anannual inspection by a certified operator.
It is important to remember that the NPDES permit is part of a Federal program
administered by the State of North Carolina and that violations of the permit are enforceable
by Federal and State laws. Although your system will not be required to have a certified
operator at this time, proper operation and maintenance is needed for the system to function
satisfactorily. In as much as each system must be individually designed and sited, special
maintenance requirements may apply to a specific installation. The attached maintenance
schedule should however be applicable to most systems. The frequencies suggested are
considered to be the minimum necessary. More frequent attention may be needed for a
specific system and may be required by conditions of the permit.

In addition to being required by your permit, proper maintenance of your treatment system
is extremely important to the long term serviceability of your wastewater treatment system.
If proper maintenance is not given to. the system, it will fail and will result in major
expenses for repairs.
We would strongly encourage you to take the necessary action to insure that your system is
operating properly. If we can be of any assistance to you or if you have any questions or
comments, please call Dwight Lancaster of our staff at [phone].

Certificate of Coverage NCG550514
General Permit NCG550000
Formerly NPDES Permit NCO076759
Buncombe County
The Division of Environmental Management has recently evaluated all existing individual permits for potential
coverage under general permits currently issued by the Division. 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0127 allows the Division to
evaluate groups of permits having similar discharge activities for coverage under general permits and issue coverage
where the Division finds control of the discharges more appropriate in this manner. The Division has determined
that the subject discharge qualifies for such coverage. Therefore, the Division is hereby issuing the subject
Certificate of Coverage under the state-NPDES general permit no. NCG550000 which shall void NPDES Permit
NC0076759. This Certificate of Coverage is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina and the US
Environmental Protection Agency Memorandum of Agreement dated December 6,1983 and as subsequently amended.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are unacceptable to
you, you have the right to submit an individual permit application, associated processing fee and letter requesting
coverage under an individual permit. Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. Please
take notice this Certificate of Coverage is not transferable. Part II, E.4. addresses the requirements to be followed in
case of change of ownership or control of this .discharge.
In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the
Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be required by this Division, such as the
construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities. Construction of any
wastewater treatment facilities will require issuance of an Authorization to Construct from this Division.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Certificate of Coverage and respective general permit may
subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C. Please note that the general permit does require
monitoring in accordance with federal law. The monitoring data is not required to be submitted to the Division
unless specifically requested, however, the permittee is required to maintain all records for a period of at least three
(3) years.

Certificate of Coverage No. NCG550514
The issuance of this Certificate of Coverage is an administrative action initiated by the Division of
Environmental Management and therefore, no fees are due at this time. In accordance with current rules, there
are no annual administrative and compliance monitoring fees for coverage under general permits. The only fee
you will. be responsible for is a renewal fee at the time of renewal. The current permit expires July 31,1997.
This coverage will remain valid through the duration of the attached general permit. The Division will be
responsible for the reissuance of the general permit and at such time, you will be notified of the procedures to
follow to continue coverage under the reissued permit. Unless you fail to follow the procedures for continued
coverage, you will continue to be permitted to discharge in accordance with the attached general permit.
The issuance of this Certificate of Coverage does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all
statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances which may be required by the Division of Environmental Management
or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any Federal or Local
other governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions or need additional information regarding this matter, please contact either the ,

Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NCO076759
BUNCOMBE COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 7/28/89 expires on 6/30/94. North
Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.1(c) requires that an
application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to the
expiration date. As of the date of this letter, the Division of
Environmental Management had not received an application for renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur
after the permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is
desired, it must not be allowed to expire. A renewal request must be
submitted no later than 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date.
Operation of the waste treatment works or continuation of a discharge
after the expiration date would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1
and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request
renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil
assessment of at least $250.00; larger penalties may be assessed
depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application shall consist of the following information:
1. A letter requesting the renewal.
2. The completed application form (copy attached), signed and
submitted in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of North Carolina
Administrative Code (15A NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a).
3._A processing fee (see attached schedule) in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0105(b). The application processing fee is based on the
design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the
first categories of facilities.
4. Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a
priority pollutant analysis in accordance with Part 122.21.

5. Facilities which have not been constructed within the last
permit cycle and are therefore, considered "new" facilities,
shall also submit an Engineering Alternatives Analysis,
referenced in 15A NCAC Subchapter 2H .0103 and Subchapter
2B .0201(c).
6. If the facility covered by this permit contains some type of
treatment works, a narrative description of the sludge management
plan must be submitted with the application for the renewal.
In addition to penalities referenced above, a permit renewal
request received after the expiration date will be considered as
a new application and will require the higher application fee.
15A NCAC 2H .0105(b)(2) requires payment of an annual
Administrative and Compliance Monitoring fee for most permitted
facilities. You will be billed separately for that fee (if
applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application,
and appropriate fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit

Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is
the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a
one -month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24-hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of indi-
vidual values.
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth
root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the
number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to
the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the indi-
vidual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean,
values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).

PART 11
A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1. Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms
and conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant
identified in this permit more frequently than or at a level in
excess of that authorized shall: constitute a violation of the
permit. Any anticipated facility expansions, production increases,
or process modifications which will result in new, different, or
increased discharges of pollutants must be reported by submission
of a new NPDES application or, if such changes will not violate the
effluent limitations specified in this permit, by notice to the DEM
of such changes. Following such notice, the permit may be modified
to specify and limit any pollutants not previously limited.

The permittee shall at all times maintain in good working order and
operate as efficiently as possible all treatment or control facili-
ties or systems installed or used by the permittee to achieve com-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.
3. Adverse Impact
The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any adverse
impact to navigable waters resulting from noncompliance with any
effluent limitations specified in this permit, including such accel-
erated or additional monitoring as necessary to determine the nature
and impact of the noncomplying discharge.
4. Bypassing
Any diversion from or bypass of facilities necessary to maintain com-
pliance with the terms and conditions of this permit is prohibited,
except (i) where unavoidable to prevent loss of life or severe
property damage, or (ii) where excessive storm drainage or runoff
would damage any facilities necessary for compliance with the
effluent limitations and prohibitions of this permit. The permittee
shall promptly notify the Water Quality Section of DEM in writing of
each such diversion or bypass.
S. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the
course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such material from
entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United
States.

PART II
6. Power Failures
In order to maintain compliance with the effluent limitations and
prohibitions of this permit, the permittee shall either:
a. Provide an alternative power source sufficient to operate
the wastewater control facilities;
or, if such alternative power source is not in existence,

trol or ownership of facilities from which the authorized discharge
emanates or is contemplated, the permittee shall notify the prospec-
tive owner or controller by letter of the existence of this permit
and of the need to obtain a permit in the name of the prospective
owner. A copy of the letter shall be forwarded to the Division of
Environmental Management.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additionalsheetsof narrative and checklists as necessary)
On January 11, 2017 1(Daniel Boss) conducted.a Compliance. Evaluation Inspection at 721 Old Mars
Hill Hwy in Buncombe County. The owner, Elsie Robinson, and Claude Robinson were both present
for the inspection. The general appearance of the system was adequate. There was no detectable
sewage smell or other sign of septic system failure. Ms. Robinson said she had the septic tank
pumped 2 years ago by Carter Septic, but did not retain the receipt. Carter septic could not verify the
work had been done because Ms. Robinson could not pinpoint the month/year of the septic pumping.
The effluent pipe is buried in the stream bank and was not located, during the inspection. Claude tried
unsuccessfully to locate/uncover the effluent pipe while,I was onsite. The effluent pipe does need to be
uncovered and monitored to be. brought into compliance.

Dear Ms. Robinson:
The North Carolina Division of Water Resources conducted an inspection of your Single Family Residence
wastewater treatment system at 721 Old Mars Hill Hwy on April 15, 2016. This inspection was conducted to
verify that the facility is operating -incompliance with the conditions and limitations specified in NPDES WW
Permit No. NCG550514. A summary of the findings and comments noted during the inspection are provided
in the enclosed copy of the inspection report.
The Compliance Evaluation inspection was conducted by Division of Water Resources staff from the Asheville
Regional Office. The following violation(s) were noted during the inspection:
Inspection Area Description of Violation
Effluent Sampling Annual water quality monitoring required by the general permit has not been conducted.
[NCG550000 Part I. A. Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements
(see table in NCG550000 permit)].
Permit The Annual Administering and Compliance Monitoring Fee has not been paid for 2014 and
2015 and is past due. [NCG550000 Part II. Section B General Conditions 12] in
accordance with [15A NCAC 02H .0105(b)(2)].
Septic Tank The septic tank has not been checked annually and pumped out every 3-5 years or when
the solids level is found to be more than 1/3 of the liquid depth in any compartment.
[NCG550000 Part I. A. 6. Permit Conditions (Operation & Maintenance) Septic
Tanks].

In addition, the issues below must also be addressed:
Compliance Issue(s):
A visual review of the outfall location has not been executed twice each year as required to ensure that no,
visible solids or other obvious evidence of system malfunctioning is observed. Any visible signs of a
malfunctioning -system shall be documented and steps taken to correct the problem. [NCG550000 Part I. A.
3. Permit Conditions (Operation & Maintenance) Visual Review of Outfall].
• Water discharging from the effluent pipe was dark gray and not clear. Discharge was very low flow, but was
still causing visual degradation of the receiving stream (Gentry Branch). Samples were not collected at this
time; however, it appeared likely that effluent limitations would be violated. [NCG550000 Part II. B. la
(General Conditions)].
Remedial actions should have already been taken to correct this problem and prevent further occurrences in the
future. The Division of Water Resources may pursue enforcement action for this and any additional violations of
State law.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
On April 15,'2016, Rob Topolski of the Asheville Regional Office (ARO) conducted a Compliance
Evaluation Inspection of the Single Family Residence wastewater treatment system (NPDES Permit
No. NCG550514) at 721 Old Mars Highway in Buncombe County, NC. The property owner/permittee,
Mr. Claude Robinson, was present during this inspection. Mr. Robinson said that he hasn't had the
septic tank pumped recently, but that it was probably due. He said the tank is located at the front of the
house on the left side and that he would have to dig to expose it for pumping. Mr. Robinson said that
the sand filter drain field is also in the front yard and flows to the right side. He pointed where the
effluent pipe is located and where it discharges to the stream (Gentry Branch),
Water discharging from the effluent pipe was dark gray and not clear. Although small fish were
observed swimming downstream and the discharge was very low flow, visual degradation of the
receiving stream was still observed. Samples were not collected at this time; however, it appeared
likely that the permit effluent limitations would be violated. I informed Mr. Robinson of the violations l
observed and asked that he have the septic tank pumped as soon as possible. By not having the
septic tank pumped out regularly (every 3-5 years), the life span and effectiveness of the sand filter
system may be compromised. A follow-up inspection will be conducted to determine if pumping the
septic tank has resolved the problem or if additional measures need to be taken to return to
compliance.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
On April 15, 2016, Rob Topolski of the Asheville Regional Office (ARO) conducted a Compliance
Evaluation Inspection of the Single Family Residence wastewater treatment system (NPDES Permit
No. NCG550514) at 721 Old Mars Highway in Buncombe County, NC. The property owner/permittee,
Mr. Claude Robinson, was present during this inspection. Mr. Robinson said that he hasn't had the
septic tank pumped recently, but that it was probably due. He said the tank is located at the front of the
house on the left side and that he would have to dig to expose it for pumping. Mr. Robinson said that
the sand filter drain field is also in the front yard and flows to the right side. He pointed where the
effluent pipe is located and where it discharges to the stream (Gentry Branch).
Water discharging from the effluent pipe was dark gray and not clear. Although small fish were
observed swimming downstream and the discharge was very low flow, visual degradation of the
receiving stream was still observed. Samples were not collected at this time; however, it appeared
likely that the permit effluent limitations would be violated. I informed Mr. Robinson of the violations I
observed and asked that he have the septic tank pumped as soon as possible. By not having the
septic tank pumped out regularly (every 3-5 years), the life span and effectiveness of the sand filter
system may be compromised. A follow-up inspection will be conducted to determine if pumping the
septic tank has resolved the problem or if additional measures need to be taken to return to -
compliance.
