Attention: Toya Fields`
— Application for coverage under NCG550000
Regarding: Notice of Intent,
Clay County
Dear Ms. Toya Fields:
We are writing to apply for coverage under General Permit NCG550000: Single Family
Domestic Units discharging less than 1000 gallons per day of domestic wastewater. The
proposed Onsite Wastewater Disposal System is designed for a 3 bed room house, with a design
flow of 360 GPD.
Based on the Soils Report by Kirk McEachern, LSS, of SOILS, Inc. the proposed site (Lots 6
and 8 Whitewater Subdivision, Clay County, NC) is unusable for wastewater application via
surface drip, subsurface drip, or conventional systems. In Mr. McEachern's opinion the
surrounding sites were also unsuitable for wastewater application. Large stone, rock outcrops,
mandated setbacks from creeks, and cut slopes greater than 3 feet high leave areas too small for
application. This report can be found in Attachment A.
The site was deemed unsuitable for a ground absorption sewage system by the Clay County
Health Department Environmental Health Division (Attachment B). F. Mason Gardner, Clay
County Environmental Health Specialist noted the following reasons in his April 12, 2006 letter:
1. Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940)
2. Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)
3. Insufficient space for septic system and repair area (Rule .1945)
4. Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks (Rule .1950)
At this time there are no adjacent properties available for purchase to allow for a soil absorption
wastewater disposal system. A letter dated January 11, 2007 from the property owner, Bobby
McKown, is provided as Attachment C stating that there are no properties available for sale. In
addition, the report from SOILS, Inc. states that the surrounding lots were also unsuitable for soil
absorption disposal.
The nearest Regional or Municipal Sewer Collection System is the Clay County Wastewater
Treatment Plant located in Hayesville, with the closest sewer line ending at the Ridges Golf
Course on Mountain Harbor Road, 7.6 miles away, There are no plans to expand the sewer line
to the proposed location in Whitewater Subdivision. Using a conservative estimate of $40 per
foot of gravity PVC sewer line and $1,800 per manhole every 400 ft, it was calculated that an
17 ARLINGTON STREET • ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA 28801 • [phone] • FAx [phone]

expansion to the proposed site would cost approximately $1,786,000. The actual cost would be
higher because force mains would be required for part of the extension.
The proposed wastewater treatment system for Lots 6 and 8 of Whitewater Subdivision consists
of a 1,000 gal septic tank (STB-232) and 1,200 gallon pump tank (PT-232) by Cherokee Septic
Tanks. A recirculating sand filter designed based on a 5 GPD/ft2 loading rate provides 72 ft2 of
surface area for treatment. A 4:1 recirculation ratio box by American Manufacturing is used to
rout % of the flow back to the pump tank via gravity flow where it is recirculated through the
sand filter. Chlorination and de -chlorination apparatus by American Manufacturing are used for
disinfection. The tablet chlorinator consists of a housing and two tablet feed tubes. Slow
dissolving JET-CHLOR tablets dissolve at a rate proportional to the flow. A contact chamber
provides approximately 100 minutes of detention time after both the chlorination and de -
chlorination apparatus. A cascade aerator provides aeration before the effluent discharges to the
stream.
Systems operating under General Permit NCG550000 are required to provide an effluent with a monthly
average BOD less than 30 mg/l, total suspended residue less than 30 mg/l, and fecal coliform less than
200/ 100 ml. Systems are required to have daily maximum values less than 45.0 mg/l BOD, 45.0 mg/1
total suspended residue, and 400/ 100 ml fecal coliform. Recirculating sand filter systems typically
produce effluent that meet or exceed these standards having no more than 10 mg/1 cBOD5 and TSS and
nitrate levels less than 30 ppm.
A check for the permit fee of $50.00 made payable to NCDENR and final plans for the treatment
system stamped "Final Design Not released for construction" have been included. The
following items have been included as Attachments in this application package:
A. A signed and completed original and two copies of this Notice of Intent Application

RE: Soils opinion for Lots 6 and 8, Whitewater Subdivision, Clay County, NC
A review of soils on lots 6 and 8 in the Whitewater Subdivision in Clay
County for application of wastewater via either conventional or drip irrigation with
advanced treatment in an engineered individual wastewater treatment system
was performed. The site was visited to observe the soils and site conditions for
this assessment.
The site, in my opinion, is unuseable for wastewater application via either
surface drip, subsurface drip or conventional systems. The reason is primarily
due to the mandated setbacks from creeks and cut slopes greater than 3 feet
high leave only a 30 foot wide strip of lot 8 and a 25 foot wide strip of lot 6
available for consideration. The square footage left in both instances is
insufficient for any kind of system. In addtion, the area availabl'b for
consideration on lot 8 has large boulders present and the are on lot 6 has a
driveway through the middle of available space and also has rock outcrops and
large stone on the surface.
The relevant sections of the North Carolina Adminstrative Code are
defined in Rules .1901-.1968 Title 15A Subchapter 18A. The specific rules
relevant to this site are rules .1945 (a) Avaialble Spce; .1950 (a) (1) and (a) (13)
Location of Sanitary Sewage Systems; and rule .1943 (a) Soil Depth. The site
fails to meet the minimum criteria. for all these sections and is therefor, in my
opinion, not suitable for a septic system whether conventional or alternative.
In most cases a solution can be found to most sites which do not meet
one or more of the rules. In this case the only solution possible is to find a
suitable area outside the mandated setbacks which lacks the rock and boulders
and pump the wastewater to that site for treatment and dispersal to the soil. The
site would need to be somewhere other than these two lots or the surrounding
lots. I did not extensively canvass the surrounding lots but a review of the plat
shows that they will have the same concerns as the lots 1 did review. If an off -
site area can be found I would be glad to assist with site reciew and permit
application.

Re: Application for improvement permit for Whitewater Estates Lot 6 and 8.
Health Department file No, 886550
Dear Mr. and M-s. MGK.Own,
The Clay County Health Department, Environmental Health Division evaluated the
above -referenced property at the site designated on the plat/site plan that accompanied your
improvement permit application. According to your application. -the site is to serve a 3 bedroom
residence with a design wastewater flow of 360 gallons per day. The evaluation was done in.
accordance with the laws and rules governing wastewater systems in North Carolina General
Statute 130A-333 including related statutes and Title 15A, Subchapter 1.8A, of the North
Carolina Administrative Code, Rule. 1900 and related rules.
Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina
Administrative Code, Rules .1940 through .1948, the evaluation indicated that the site is
UNSUITABLE for a ground absorption sewage system. Therefore, ,your request for an
improvement permit is DENIED. The site is unsuitable based on the following:
1, 'Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule _ 1940)
2. Unsuitable soil depth (Rule ,1943)
3, Insutficient space for septic system and repair area (R.. We .1945)
4. Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks (Rule .1950)
These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, leading to the
discharge of untreated sewage on the ground surface, into surface waters, directly to ground
water or inside your structure.
The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, .and modified
innovative or alternative systems. However, the Health Department has determined that none of
the above options will overcome the severe conditions on this site. A possible option might be a
system designed to dispose of sewage to another area of suitable soil or off -site to additional
property.
For the reasons set out above, the property is currently classified UNSUITABLE, and no
improvement permit shall be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948(c).
Ed Wdes :20 ZOaZ ZZ 'U1ef S2_8668E8z8 : 'ON XFJd AiNnoo Au-iD : WONJ

However, the site classified as'UNSUITA.DL. may be classified as p'.1ROVISIONALLY
SUITABLE if written documentation is provided that meets the requirements of 'RU- e .1948(d).
A copy of this rule is enclosed. You may hire a consultant to assist you if you wish to try to
develop a plan under which your site could be reclassified asPROVISIONALLY SM- TA$LE.
You have a right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal
review by the soil scientist or environmental health supervisor at the local health department.
You may also request an informal review by the N.C. 'Department of Environment and Natural
Resources regional soil specialist_ A request for informal review must be made in writing to the
local health department.
You also have a right to a formal appeal of the decision. To pursue a formal appeal, you
.must file a petition for a contested case }rearing with -the Office of Achninistrative Hearings, 671.4
Mail Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-671,4. To get a copy of a petition form, you may write the
Office of Administrative Hearings or call the office at [phone] or from the OAEi web site
at ,.;v/The petition for a contested case hearing must be filed in
accordance with the provision of North Carolina General Statutes 130A-24 and 15OB-23 and all
other applicable provisions of Chapter 150B. N.C. General Statute 130A-335 (g) provides that
your hearing would be held in the county where your property is. located.
Please note: If you wish to pursue a formal appeal, you must file the petition form with
the Office of Administrative Hearings WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE OF TRJIS
LETTER The date of this letter is April 12, 2006. Meeting the 30 day deadline is critical to
your right to a formal appeal. Beginning a .formal appeal within 30 days will not interfere with
any informal review that you might request. Do not wait for the outcome of any informal review
if you wish to file a formal appeal.
If you file a petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative
Hearings, you are required by law (N.C. General Statute 150B-23) to send a copy of your
petition to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Send the
copy to: Office of General Counsel, N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources,
1601 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1601, Do NOT send the copy of the petition to
your local health department. Sending a copy of your petition to the local health department will
NOT satisfy the legal requirements in N.C. General Statute 15OB-23 that you send a copy to the
Office of General Counsel, NCDENR.

Subject: RE: Low -flow characteristics for Mill Creek in Clay County
Mr. Rice,
In response to your inquiry about the low -flow characteristics (7Q10) for a location on Mill Creek in southeastern
Clay County, the following information is provided:
A check of the low -flow files here at the USGS North Carolina Water Science Center does not indicate any
previous low -flow determinations for the specific location you identified on Mill Creek. Nor are there any known
USGS records of discharge for locations on Mill Creek. In the absence of data that would permit a site -specific,
low -flow analysis at your point of interest, low -flow characteristics can be estimated by assessing a range of low -
flow yields (expressed as flow per square mile drainage area, or cfsm) that may be considered applicable to your
point of interest.
No drainage -area information is recorded in our files for your location on Mill Creek. A "quick-n-dirty" basin
delineation above your point of interest using mapping software suggests the drainage area is in the range of 0.8
to 1.0 sgmi.
The "most recent" low -flow information published for this area is contained in a statewide report completed in the
early 1990's. It is USGS Water -Supply Paper 2403, 'Low -flow characteristics of streams in North Carolina" (Giese
and Mason, 1993). An online version of the report is available through
http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/usgspubs/wsp/wsp2403. The report provides the low -flow characteristics (based on data
through 1988) via regional relations and at -site values for sites with drainage basins between 1 and 400 sgmi and
not considered or known to be affected by regulation and/or diversions.
If you access the report, please note the online report files are provided in the ".DJVU" format and require a
particular Lizardtech plug-in, also available through a link displayed on the page. Or you can click an adjacent
link that will allow you to view the report as a group of images without the need for a plug-in.
A couple pieces of information from this report can be considered:
(a) In Table 1 of this report, there are 3 nearby sites for which 7Q10 discharge estimates are provided.
Expressing these estimates as 7Q10 low -flow yields (again, flow per square mile of drainage area, or cfsm)
provides some indication of the yield range that could potentially be applicable to your location. The 7Q10 low -
flow yield range is from about 0.35 to about 0.83 cfsm (average 0.65 cfsm), and this appears to be a wide range.
The closest site (located on Shooting Creek) is that which has the lowest yield (about 0.35 cfsm) in the above
range. The other two nearby sites with 7Q10 low -flow yields close to 0.8 cfsm are located on the Nantahala River
near the Macon/Clay County lines, and use of these yields may result in an over -estimate of the 7Q10 discharge
in Mill Creek
(b) Use of the regional 7Q10 equation provided in this report for this area (Hydrologic Area 10) produces 7Q10
flow estimates with yields equal to about 0.39 cfsm.
Putting together the above pieces of information would suggest that an appropriate 7Q10 yield is in the range of
0.35 to 0.4 cfsm. And in the absence of further data and/or analyses, use of this yield range may be the most
appropriate and would be consistent with the yield associated with the nearby site on Shooting Creek. Once you
know a more definitive value for the drainage area at your specific location, you can apply the yield range to
2/15/2007

obtain 7Q10 flow estimates.
Please be aware that this estimate is based on natural -flow conditions and does not account for the presence of
regulation and/or diversions, if any, that may exist in Mill Creek.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.

Applicatioue Single family homes.
Filter Area: 122 Linear Feet of 1/16" filtration.
Flow Rate: 1,000 gpd.
III Material- All materials are noncorrosive in the septic
! tank environment. Sleeve is PVC, primary filter is poly-
propylene, and filter connection element is neoprene.
The Zoeller Septic
System Filter fits inside any 4" sanitary tee. Slide the
filter cartridge into the filter sleeve. Slide the assembled
cartridge and sleeve into the sanitary tee at the tank's
outlet. Ensure the sleeve latch is pointing toward the
outlet of the septic tank before filter placement into
the tee. The drain field is now protected from solids
greater than 1/16".
Adding
A 1/2 PVC pipe can
ai � 3 L '_. 1 »
be attached to the top of the filter with a stainless steel
screw. Cut off to appropriate length below the lid.
<< ; The filter can be maintained by rotating the cartridge counterclockwise and removing for
cleaning The sleeve should remain in the sanitary tee while cleaning the cartridge. To clean, hold cartridge
over septic tank opening and rinse with hose until clean, washing filtered trash back into septic tank. After
cleaning the cartridge the sleeve should be cleaned inside and out. Reinsert the cartridge, turn it clockwise
in the sleeve, locking in place. Remove the filter and sleeve assembly from the sanitary tee. The Zoeller
filter should be cleaned each time the septic tank is pumped or when the need is indicated by slow flows
from the house. More frequent cleanings will not hurt the filter and could even improve the performance
of your septic tank. For installations that exceed the design flow rate of the filter, more frequent cleanings
may be required. Two or more filters may be connected with a manifold for higher flow applications.
tq *-,.,Follow the install and maintenance instructions above. For
replacement components,call 1 800-928 PUMP.
=� iIt li AfEvery Zoeller filter is guaranteed to be free from defects in materials and workmanship
for the lifetime of the homeowner/purchaser. Free repair or replacement, excluding labor, will be made on
return of the filter prepaid to the factory. This warranty is limited to product proven to be free from abuse J I
or improper installation.
ALL ZOELLER ONSITE PRODUCTS MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH PLUMBING AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT CODES.

Dear Mr. Haynes,
I would like to inform you of the design modifications we are proposing to the permitted s
discharge wastewater system that was approved for Ms. Jeanne Heitmeyer under general e face
NCG550000 (COC# NCG551434). The proposed system is to be located at 3461 Fires Creek Road in
mit
Clay County, North Carolina. The following modifications are proposed to the original system layout:
1 g from the western Y
above the home tern portion of the pro'

OThe recirculating
and filter will be moved p are approximately 35 feet off of the edge of pavement of Fires Cr ek Road (SR
1300). This location is outside of the 30' state maintained right of way along the south side of Fires
Creek Road measured from the center of the road. The new sand filter location is within the
required setbacks from property lines and water wells asset forth in 15 NCAC 2T .0506.
(2) The septic and pump tanks will be re -located to the east of the proposed house site. The
force
and recirculating sand filter return line will run up and down, the slope along the left side of th main
property: The new tanklocations are outside of the 100 year flood plain. e
(3) The relocation of the septic and pump tank required a different pump specification. A
Model 163 "Flow Mate 1/2 HP pump or a Myers Model P51/P52 1/2 HP effluent Pum Zoeller
