DWR understands that the subject property is not eligible for coverage by a permit from the Haywood
County Health Department.Therefore,your authorized consultant, David D.Smith and Company, PLLC,
intends to upgrade/install a wastewater treatment system designed to discharge to Surface Waters of the
State [in accord with plans and specifications signed by the engineer on February 24,2017. Compliance
under General Permit NCG550000 restricts discharge flow, not to exceed 1,000 gallons per day.This ATC
covers treatment facilities for a three(3)-bedroom single-familv residence estimated to discharge 360 gpd
(120 gallons per bedroom),

the manufacturer's guidelines,conducting and documenting inspections,establishing sources for OEM
spare parts and supplies,taking samples for analyses,making necessary repairs,and documenting said
maintenance for the duration of the permit. Please note that the receiving stream is currently classified
and governed as C(Aquatic Life,Secondary Recreation, Fresh Water).
If DWR determines that your discharge contributes to future degradation or impairment of this
waterbody,an individual NPDES permit may be mandatory. Upon DWR's request,the Permittee must
provide records and demonstrate regular efforts to maintain the approved treatment system.The
Division recommends that the Permittee solicit manufacture-certified training, or a qualified contractor

documenting compliance"as built" in accord with this ATC and approved plans and specifications
submitted to DWR. No changes may be made without prior approval.
Therefore, in accord with the application and the attached approved plans and specifications, DWR hereby
authorizes the installation of a new surface-water discharge treatment system described as:
• Post Aeration (Cascade/Riprap)
• Chlorination
• Primary Sand Filter
• Dosing Tank

All elbow piping must conform to the long-sweeping type.All cleanouts must be housed in meter boxes
below grade.This treatment system shall be located at least 15 feet away from a dwelling,at least 100
feet from any water-supply well either on-or off-site.The system shall also be located and constructed
above any applicable 100-year flood line with a 50-ft setback from property lines.
A portion of your treatment system appears to encroach on the 100-year floodplain.This may be
permitted, however you must certify all components water-tight, and fit them with risers installed two
feet above the 100-year flood elevation [2T.0505(m)]. Please include anti-buoyancy calculations for all
subsurface floodplain components."
Your project may require hydraulic analysis by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)to include a
review by a North Carolina-qualified profession engineer [per NC Executive Order 123]. New
construction is prohibited down-gradient of the 100-Year Flood Plane exce t in accord with local
building codes,and except upon submittal to the Division of an approved No-Rise Certification as
documentation of compliance [G.S. 143-213 (1)&(2); also(14) (c)(d)(e)].Apply for this certification to
your local Buildings Inspection Permit Office [contact:Terry Foxx,Western Area Community Official for
the NC NFIP;Terry FoxxPncdos.gov—828-228-8526],and forward any permit copies to
.DWR [Electronic copies are appreciated].
Upon completing construction and prior to operating this permitted facility,a North Carolina-registered
engineer shall sign and submit to DW R the attached Engineer's Certification form,thereby certifying that
the permitted facility has been installed in accordance with the NPDES Permit,this Certificate of Coverage,
this Authorization to Construct,and the approved plans and specifications.
This ATC permit is issued in accordance with Part III, Paragraph 2 of NPDES General Permit NCG550000,

conditions and limitations specified in this General Permit. In the event that the facilities fail to perform
satisfactorily, including creating nuisance conditions,the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action
as may be required by this Division,such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater
treatment(s)or disposal facilities. Failure to abide by the requirements of this ATC permit may subject the
Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Water Resources in accordance with North Carolina
General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C.
If any parts,measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are
unacceptable to you,you have the right to request an individual permit by submitting an individual permit
application. Unless such demand is made,the certificate of coverage shall be final and binding.
This COC is not transferable except after notice to the Division of Water Resources.The Division may

David Straub
From: Weaver, John [e-mail]]
Sent: Friday, October 28, 2016 11:21 AM
To: David Straub
Cc: John C Weaver
Subject: Response from USGS concerning...Re: Low Flow Determination-43 Vision Road
Mr. Straub, -
Please accept my apologies for the delayed response to your October 7th email. The entail arrived as our office was positioning
for post-Hurricane Matthew field work. Thank you for your patience these past few weeks.
In response to your inquiry about the low-flow characteristics(7Q 10)for Beaverdarn Creek north of Canton in eastern Haywood
County,the following information is provided:
A check of the low-flow f les here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center(Raleigh office)does not indicate a
previous low-flow determination on Beaverdam Creek new die point of interest,as identified by the Ia dong coordinates you
provided(35.567603,-82.829411)via email dated October 7,2016, No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for
the point of interest.
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow analysis,estimates of low-flow characteristics at
ungaged locations are determined by assessing a range in the low-flow yields(expressed as flow per square mile drainage area,
of efsm)at nearby sites where such estimates have previously been determined.
A basin delineation completed using the online USGS StreamStats application for North Carolina(blip://wwcr.0 ,xww•/os,/sb'
eamstatshowth curulina.hnnl)indicates the drainage area for the point of interest is approximately 8.6 sgmi.
For streams in Haywood County,low-flow characteristics published by the USGS are provided in two reports:
(1)The first is 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
at http,//pubs usus ww1wsro/2403/e tort ndY. 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 I and 400 sgmi and not considered or known to be
affected by regulation and/or diversions.
(2)The second is a statewide report published in March 2015. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2015-500I,"Low-
flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for selected USGS wntinuous-record streamgaging station,in North Carolina
through 2012"(Weaver,2015). The report is available online at htln://onbs.usns.eov/sir/2015/5U01/. The report provides
updated low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for 266 active(as of 2012 water year)and discontinued sareamgages
across the state where a minimum of 10 climatic years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Inspection of both reports Indicates the presence of 5 new by selected USGS partial-record sites(2)and contlnuons-retard
surrougages(3)in general vicinity of the point of interest where low-flow characteristics have previously been published.
Among these five sites,the annual 7Q 10 yields range from 0.23 to 0.42 efsm(average approximately 0.33 efsm).
Apph iug the above amoral 7Q 10 yield range to the drainage area for the point of interest(8.6 sgmi)results in an estimated
annual 7Q 10 discharge from about 2.0 to 3.6 cfs(average approximately 2.8 ors).
Please date the estimated flows are provided in units of cubic feet per second(ca.
Please understand the information provided in this message is based on a preliminary assessment and considered provisional,
subject to revision pending further analyses.
Hope this information is helpful.

Good morning Curtis,
I work with Dave Smith, PE and we are working on the design of another sand filter
wastewater system for an existing residential site at 43 Vision Road in Canton,NC (Lat
35.568053, Long-82.828358).
Beaverdam Creek flows along the western property boundary(approximately 1,500 feet
downstream of Rice Cove Creek).
If you would,please have a look at this and provide me a 7Q 10 flow determination for this
site, I would appreciate it.
If you have questions,please call.
Thanks,

DEFINITIONS
Olxen gpnd F.Itc!'s, single oea&)•
Primary or secondary effluent is distributed once,over an exposed, open sand bed. Removable covers
are typically used. Wastewater may be applied by gravity flew through distribution lines,periodic surface
flooding or spray distribution. Treatment by entrapment, sorption and assimilation takes place as the
wastewater percolates through the sand bed. Collection Is made by underdrain lines Imbedded in gravel
which convey tho filtrate to disinfection treatment and final discharge. Collection lines may be vented to
the top of the sand bad to allow for aeration.
Asillva-d rsubsurfacel Sand Filters
Similar to open sand filters except the sand filter Is constructed below grade and covered withbackfill..
Wastewater is applied by gravity flow through perforated distribution lines installed on top of the filter
bed. D;etribution and collection lines maybe vented to the surface to allow for aeration of the sand bed.
ecrtculat'na SSand Filters
Recirculating filters are open filters which employ recirculation of filtrate. The filtrate is returned to a
recirculation tank and is 'nixed with septic tank effluent(typically at a 3:i or 5:1 ratio,filtrate:septic tank
.effluent) after whlch the mix is applied to the sand bed. Sand beds are sized based upon the amount of
septic tank effluent. After each dose a portion of the filtrate is diverted for further treatment and
disposal. Dosing applications require a pressUdzed distribution line.

These filters have wastewater app"ad to the sand beds Intermittently. Fillers are most officient under
aerndic conditions and typically sand beds need to be rejuvenated. This requires an open cover type
arrangement which allows for&Coosa to the sand bad, Dosing applications require a pressurized
distribution line or surface flooding. The dosing is achieved through pumping of siphoning.
(?aSannC svi F;It rs
Rapid sand filters employ a large hydraulic Read(&to18 foot difference beleiaen filter fled liquid and
clear well)which dm^os the water through the filter quickly (hence the name). As filter pores clog
backwmhing with filirete Is required to expand the Sand bed and dislodge particles.
SlOYI-Se-g(gravIly Filters
Slow sand filters ara similar to rapid sand filters except they employ a smaller hydraulic head(0.2 to 4.0
tool difference between filter oed liquid and clear well)which drives the water through the tiller much
more sinw'y. As a result, loading rates are much fewer then the rapid sand filters. The filter can be
cleaned oy rerncving a few inches of sand.

Dear Mr. &Mrs. Schandevel, ,
The Haywood County Health and Human Services Agency, Environmental Health Division on 4-06-16
evaluated the above referenced property at the site designated on the plat that accompanied your Repair
application. According to your application the site serves 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 and related statutes and Title
15A, Subchapter 18A, 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 a Repair Permit is DENIED. The site is
unsuitable based on the following:
Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940)
XXX Unsuitable soil characteristics(structure or clay mineralogy) (Rule.1941)
XXX Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942)
Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)
Presence of restrictive horizon (Rule .1944)
XXX Insufficient space for septic system and repair area (Rule .1945)
XXX Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks(Rule .1945)
Other(Rule.1946)

Repair Permit Denial
"Enhancing the health,safety and full potential of our community"
Haywood County HHSA is an equal opportunity provider and employer

These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, lending to the discharge of
untreated sewage on the ground surface, In surface waters, directly Into ground water or inside your
structure.
The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, and modified, innovative or
alternate systems. However, the Health and Human Services Agency 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 a Repair Permit
shall not be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948 (c).
However, the site classified as UNSUITABLE may be classified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE if
written documentation is provided that meets the requirements of Rule .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 as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE.
You have the right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal review by .
environmental health supervisor at the Haywood County Health and Human Services Agency. You may
also request an Informal review by the N.C, Department of Environment and Natural Resources regional
soil specialist. A request for an informal review must be made In writing to the local health department.
You also have the right to a formal appeal of this decision. To pursue a format appeal, you must file a

Subject: Soil/She evaluation for Jeffrey Schandevel
Location: 43 Vision Road,Canton,NC 28716
PIN: 8668-13-6661
Size: 2.2 acres
Dear Mr.Bradish:
On April 6,2016,Adam Jones with Haywood County Environmental Health,and I
performed a soil and site evaluation of the aforementioned property to determine its
suitability for a subsurface sewage treatment and disposal repair area for a 3 bedroom
residence. The residence is existing,as well as a garage,utility shed and malfunctioning
septic system. The water supply is city water.
The soil on the site has 4 to 6 inches of sandy loam textured soil with granular structure
and very friable moist consistence. Below is 4 to 8 inches of loamy sand to sandy loam
textured soil with weak granular to subangutar block structure and friable moist
consistence. The next horizon(s)have 10 to 42 inches of heavy sandy clay loam to clay
textured soil with weak subangular blocky to massive structure and turn moist
consistence. Two borings indicated sandy loam to loamy sand textured soils below the
clay horizons. Mottles and matrix colors of 10YR 4-5/1-2 and Gley 2 6/5PB-10BG
started as shallow as the surface. Free water began entering the borings between 50 and
53 inches below the surface. The landscape position is a flood plain with less than 5%,
slope.
The site is UNSUITABLE for the installation of a subsurface sewage treatment and -
disposal repair system due to unsuitable soil structure(Rule 15ANCAC 18A.1941),
shallow depth to soil wetness condition(Rule 15A NCAC 18A.1942),and lack of
available space(Rule 15A NCAC 18A.1945). The site is considered non-repairable.
Additional options may be pursued:

Dear Mr. Weaver:
Enclosed is the submittal package for the Application for Coverage Under General Permit NCG550000
including Notice of Intent and Request for Authorization to Construct the subject sand filter system. The
property is owned by Jeffrey and Rhonda Schandevel and is located off of Beaverdam Road (S.R. 1613),
north of 1-40 approximately one mile north of Canton in Beaverdam Township, Haywood County, NC
(PIN 8668-13-6661).
This package includes:
• One original and two (2) copies of this letter.
• One original and two (2) copies of the executed Notice of Intent.
• A check payable to NCDENR in the amount of$60.00.
• Three (3)copies of the Evaluation of Alternative Disposal Methods and Sand Filter Design
Calculations including vicinity map, sand gradation report, SFR ATC Checklist and Design
Criteria.
• Three(3) copies of the denial letter from the Haywood County Health and Human Services
Agency.
• Three(3)copies of Regional Soil Scientist Karen Wallace Soil/Site Evaluation.
• Three(3)copies of USGS Hydrologist J. Curtis Weaver, P.E. 7Q10 Flow Estimate.
• Three(3)copies of the Owner's Letter authorizing David D. Smith, P.E. as Agent.
• Three (3)sets of sealed &dated Plans which include specifications.
We are hereby requesting coverage under NCG550000 and issuance of an Authorization to Construct

finished living area needing a wastewater disposal system. The existing septic system has failed and the
Haywood County Health and Human Services Agency has denied an application to repair and expand the ,
system due to unsuitable soil characteristics, unsuitable soil wetness, insufficient space and being
unsuitable to meet required setbacks.
Review and observation of the site reveals insufficient area and buffer for surface application. Contact
with the Town of Canton (W WTF) indicated no sewerage lines exist remotely close to the site and the
property is beyond the serviceable limits.
The Owner desires to build and we propose a treatment and disposal system consisting of reuse of the
existing pump tank, installation of new 4 inch PVC collection piping, primary and secondary single pass
sand filters, chlorination, dechlorination and post treatment aeration with discharge to Beaverdam Creek
which crosses the western end of the property approximately 1,500 feet downstream of Rice Cove Creek.
Contact with Mr. J. Curtis Weaver, P.E. USGS Hydrologist, indicated the estimated annual 7Q10 average
flow rate to be approximately 2.8 cfs (20.9 gpm)at the discharge location.
I trust the enclosed submittal package addresses any concerns you may have. Please call if you have
any questions.
Very truly yours,
David D. Smith and Company, PLLC

David Straub
From: Weaver, John [e-mail]]
Sent: Friday, October28, 201B 1121 AM
To: David Straub
Cc: John C Weaver
Subject: Response from USGS concerning...Re: Low Flow Determination-43 Vision Road
Mr. Straub,
Please accept my apologies for the delayed response to your October 7th email. The email arrived as our office was positioning
for post-Hurricane Matthew field work. Thank you for your patience these past few weeks.
In response to your inquiry about the low-flow characteristics(7Q 10)for Beaverdam Creek north of Canton in eastern Haywood
County,the following information is provided
A check of the law-flaw,files here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center(Raleigh office)does not indicate a
previous low-flow determination on Beaverdam Creek near the point of interes6 as identified by the lat/long coordinates you
provided(35.567603,-82.829411)via email dated October 7,2016. No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for
the point of interest.
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow analysis,estimates of low-flow,characteristics at
ungaged locations are determined by assessing a range in the low-flow yields(expressed as flow per square mile drainage area,'
of cfsm)at nearby sites where such estimates have previously been determined.
A basin delineation completed using the online USGS StreamStats application for North Carolina(htl r//water uses uowmw/sh'
eamstats/north eamlim,lutul)indicates the drainage area for the point of interest is approximately 8.6 sgmi.
For steams in Haywood County,low-flow characteristics published by the USGS are provided in two reports:
(1)The first is a statewide report completed in the early 1990's. It is USGS WatervSupply Paper 2403,"Low-flow characteristics
of streams in North Carolina"(Giese and Mason, 1993). An online version of the report is available
at htto'//uubs uses eovhvsp/2403/rconrtodf. The report provides the low-flow characteristics(based on data through 1989)via
regional relations and at-site values for sites with drainage basins between I and 400 sgmi and not considered or known to be
affected by regulation and/or diversions.
(2)The second is a statewide report published in March 2015. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2015-5001,"Low-
flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for selected USGS continuous-record streamgaging stations in North Carolina
through2012"(Weaver,2015). The report is available online at hit,//uubsmsas.eov/sir/2015/50014 Thereportprovides
updated low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for 266 active(as of 2012 water year)and discontinued streamgages
across the state where a mirtimurn of 10 climatic years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Inspection of both reports indicates the presence of 5 nearby selected USGS partial-record sites(2)and continuous-record
all camgages(3)in general vicinity of the point of interest where low-fl6w characteristics have previously been published.
Among these five sites,the annual 7Q 10 yields range from 0.23 to 0.42 cfsm(average approximately 0.33 cfsm).
Applying the above annual 7Q 10 yield range to the drainage area for the point of interest(8.6 sgnti)man Its in an estimated
annual 7Q 10 discharge from about 2.0to 3.6 cfs(average approximately 2.8 cfs).
Please note the estimated flows are provided in units of cubic feet per second(cfs).
Please understand the information provided in this message is based on a preliminary assessment and considered previsional,
subject to revision pending further analyses.
Hope this information is helpful.

Good morning Curtis,
I work with Dave Smith, PE and we are working on the design of another sand filter
wastewater system for an existing residential site at 43 Vision Road in Canton,NC(Lat
35.568053,Long-82.828358).
Beaverdam Creek flows along the western property boundary (approximately 1,500 feet
downstream of Rice Cove Creek).
If you would,please have a look at this and provide me a 7Q 10 flow determination for this
site, I would appreciate it.
If you have questions,please call.
Thanks,

DEFINITIONS
Open Sapd F:Itars,Lsingle pass)•
Primary or secondary effluent is distributed once,over an exposed, open sand bed. Removable covers
are typically used. Wastewater maybe applied by gravity flow through distribution lines,periodic surface
flooding W spray distribution. Treatment by entrapment,sorption and assimllation takes place as the
wastewater percolates through the sand bed. Collection Is made by underdrain lines Imbedded in gravel
Which convey the filtrate to disinfection treatment and final discharge. Collection lines may be vented to
the top of the sand bad to allow for aeration. .
,@,gried``subsurface) Sand Filters
Similar to open sand filters except the sand filter is constructed below grade and covered withbackfill..
Wastewater is applied by gravity flow through perforated distribution lines installed on top of the filter
bed. Distribution and collection lines may be vented to the surface 10 allow for aeration of the sand bed.
Recirculatin Sand Fit=
Recirculating filters are open filters which employ recirculation of filtrate. The filtrate is returned to a
recirculation tank and Is mixed•with septic tank effluent(typically at a 3:1 or 5:1 ratio,fiitrate:septie tank
effluent) after which rho mix is applied to the sand bed. Sand beds are sized based upon the amount of
septic tank effluent. After each dose a portion of the filtrate is diverted for further treatment and
disposal. Dosing applications require a pressurized datdbution line.-

These Pilfers have wastewater to pWred to the sand bwa intarmitiontty. Fitters are most effictem under
aerobic conditions and typically sand bads need to be rejuvenated. This requires an open cover type
arrangement wN-h allows for access to the Sand bed. Dosing applications require a pressurized
distribution line or surtacs tioodig. The dosing fa achieved through pumping of siphoning.
F9a�Sand�svi F:It r
Rapid sand filters employ a large hydraulic head(9 2012 foot difference between filter bed liquid and
clear well) which drives the water through the filter quldwy(hence the name). As filter pores ciDg
backwashing with Nlrale Is required to expand the Band bad and dislodge particles.
Slow Ssng ra�9t Filters
Slow sand filters are similar to rapid sand fillers except they employ a smaller hydraulic head(9.2 to 4.9
foot difference between filter bed liquid and clear well)which drives the water through the filter much
more slowly. As a result, loading rates are much lower than the rapid sand filters. The filter can be
cleaned oy removing a few Inches of sand.

Dear Mr. &Mrs. Schandevel,
The Haywood County Health and Human Services Agency, Environmental Health Division on 4-06-16
evaluated the above referenced property at the site designated on the plat that accompanied your Repair
application. According to your application the site serves 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 13OA-333 and related statutes and Title
15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Rule 1900 and related rules.
Based on the criteria set out In Title 1SA, 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 a Repair Permit is DENIED. The site Is
unsuitable based on the following:
Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940)
XXX Unsuitable soil characteristics(structure or clay mineralogy) (Rule.1941)
XXX Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942)
Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)

PIN: 8668-13-6661
Size: 2.2 acres
Dear Mr.Bradish:
On Apri16,2016,Adam Johes with Haywood County Environmental Health,and I
performed a soil and site evaluation of the aforementioned property to determine its
suitability for a subsurface sewage treatment and disposal repair area for a 3 bedroom
residence. The residence is existing, as well as a garage,utility shed and malfunctioning
septic system. The water supply is city water.
The soil on the site has 4 to 6 inches of sandy loam textured soil with granular stmeture
and very friable moist consistence. Below is 4 to 8 inches of loamy,sand to sandy loam
textured soil with weak granular to subangular block structure and friable moist
consistence. The next horizon(s)have 10 to 42 inches of heavy sandy clay loam to clay
textured soil with weak subangular blocky to massive structure and firm moist
consistence. Two borings indicated sandy loam to loamy sand textured soils below the
clay horizons. Mottles and matrix colors of IOYR 4-5/I-2 and Cloy 2 6/5PB-IOBG
started as shallow as the surface. Free water began entering the borings between 50 and
53 inches below the surface. The landscape position is a flood plain with less than 5%%
slope.
The site is UNSUITABLE for the installation of a subsurface sewage treatment and
disposal repair system due to unsuitable soil structure(Rule 15A NCAC 18A.1941),
shallow depth to soil wetness condition(Rule 15A NCAC 18A.1942),and lack of
available space(Rule 15A NCAC 18A.1945). The site is considered non-repairable.
Additional options maybe pursued:

I Broten Property Request for General Permit
This property is located near the town of Waynesville,NC off of Skyview Road in Haywood
County. The existing subdivision cannot acquire public sewer. The land on all sides (except
f creek) are existing homes. The soil has been"turned down"by the Health Department for any
l i repairs and has requested the Owner to pursue a Direct Discharge Permit. The Owner is
requesting a General Permit(NCG550000)and"Authorization to Construct"for a direct
discharge system. The Watershed classification for this maintained tributary of Allen Creek is
[ Class"C,Tr".
If I can be of any further service,please do not hesitate to call.

Project Summary for:
Broten: 124 Skyview Drive
[ ' Haywood County, NC.
r The project is located at 124 Skyview Drive, close to the town of Waynesville, NC.
l in Haywood County. It is an existing 3 bedroom home with a failed disposal
system. This lot is surrounded by a home on either side and across the street. It is
in an older established subdivision. The rear property line goes beyond the creek
making continuity of access for the unnamed tributary of Allen Creek. This is
I shown on the plan. A direct discharge system for the wastewater effluent was
l proposed because of the lack of adequate available soils either on or offsite. The
Watershed Classification for this area is "C", within the unnamed tributary of the
( Allen Creek watershed. The system will consist of utilizing the existing 1,000 gal
septic tank(if structurally sound), a new Septitech PreTreat unit, and an Ultraviolet
f disinfection unit outside the Septitech unit to sterilize the effluent before it is
l i discharged into the creek. The Septitech effluent pump is adequate for this
discharge. There is no need for a pump tank.
L' Haywood County Health Department made a soil's evaluation and turned down the
soils for a subsurface repair system. From his report, it appears that the system is
t experiencing seasonally high water and is rendering the disposal incapable of
disposing the wastewater. They found no soil onsite for subsurface repair. The
technician recommended investigating a direct discharge permit. The County has
accepted this owner for financial assistance. The Health Department report is
included in this application.
The existing house is a 3 bedroom house so the proposed system will be designed
Lfor 3 bedrooms each at 120 gallons per day. This will give a total flow of 360
gallons per day. The system will utilize the existing 1,000 gallon concrete precast
septic tank and a proposed Septitech unit (M400D-UV) within a 1,000 gallon
L.
LI

1 concrete precast tank with a W light in a separate enclosure (downstream of the
r pretreat) for the removal of pathogens. A cleanout is also proposed at the exit of
rthe effluent pipe to assist with possible cleaning. The UV light is located on the
discharge side of the Septitech unit in a self-contained box so the treated effluent is
passing through the light. The UV light is the last stage the effluent passes prior to
being discharged. The head losses of the effluent passing through the UV light are
very minor (negligible). I have included these calculations. Should the UV light
fail to operate, a voltage signal is sent to the control panel and the system is shut
down until the light is operational. This protects the side ditch against the
possibility of treated effluent that has not had the pathogens killed from entering
the ditch system.
f ' The system utilizes a Septitech Control Panel that has been designed to work for
this unit. The panel is housed within a NEMA 4X enclosure that is setup for the
floats, pumps and internal monitoring of the system. A programmable micro-logic
controller (PLC) activates the recirculation and discharge pumps through a
program that self-adjusts these operations based on actual wastewater flow into the
processor(as monitored by the PLC). The processor constantly evaluates the water
usage and meters out the effluent discharge to the disposal area at the appropriate
interval to assure proper effluent treatment.
�J
The proposed tank for the Septitech unit is installed in a precast tank for anti-
floatation. Floatation of the tank is a possibility because of the seasonal high water
` table which would saturate the ground. Anti-floatation calculations are included in
this submittal.

l i Re: Broten Property UV Light Analysis
UV lights of a low flow nature are typically a low pressure type, short wave,mercury vapor discharge
l ' tube that produces ultraviolet wavelengths lethal to microorganisms. The low pressure allows the
Il units to run with less power and thereby generating less heat for longer life of the bulbs. The Emperor
Aquatics UV"High Output' Light has been specified for this project.
[ The spectrum of UV light that is lethal is called UV-C. This includes a wavelength range within 240-
280 rim. A wavelength around 254 to 264 is considered ideal. This lamp is set to 254 run.
[� Different microorganisms are extinguished at different doses. The larger"pests"take longer. Fecal
Coliforms are extinguished at near 6600 µWs/cm. This lamp has a range up to 30,000 µWs/cm.
Although there is a wide spectrum of bacteria,viruses and protozoa, most of the"pests"are
extinguished between 2,000 and 20,000. Having a range up to 30,000 µWs/cm, assures that the
germicidal action is most effective across this wide range. For this application, fecal coliforms are
most important,which have a dose requirement of about 6600 µWs/cm. This is well within range.
The glass plays an important function in the effectiveness of the lamp in that the glass can absorb the
UV-C wavelength. The hard quartz glass is most effective and is utilized in the"high output'unit.
An additional coating "L" is added to the glass that adds resistance to"solarization" so that the bulb
remains highly effective for longer periods.
The Emperor Smart HQ UV Light has been submitted for review because of its ability to be installed
in the vertical or horizontal position. It clearly has the UV qualifications to be effective. The
requirements for vertical placement are spelled out in the installation guidelines with a warning to
insure the power head is above the water line. The power unit cannot be submerged. This note has
been added to the plans. This unit is acceptable for use in this application and is accepted for use on
this project.
Sincerely,
UMichael Lash, PE.

(ULTRAVIOLET bISI CTION SYSTEM)
System Deseriutlon
SeptiTecb has made a recent change in the preferred manufacturer of ultraviolet(UV)
disinfection system for use in systems that require disinfection prior to discharge. The
I I reason for the recent change is that the manufacturer of the IN unit previously used
I I (Siemens Sunlight Systems UV)has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no
longer available.
Therefore, SeptiTech has chose to use the Emperor Aquatics Smart High Output UV
Sterilizer model 025050/50. This unit is rated at the following specifications:
Water Flow Rate: 1,560— 1,980 gph(26—33 gpm)
( � Ouput: 30,000 µWs/co?
Operating pressure: 20 psi
Voltage: 120 VAC @ 60Hz
No.Lamps/Watts: 1 lamp @ 50 watts
The UV unit is rated for 26-33 gpm at 20 psi operating pressure. SeptiTech will provide
a flow restrictor and pressure regulator on the discharge of the pump in order to ensure
that the operating parameters and not exceeded during operation.
A technical out sheet,installation guide and operation and maintenance manual from the
manufacturer have been provided as part of this memo.
Control and Alarrtr j
The operation of the UV unit is the same as it was previously for the Siemens Sunlight
Systems product. The control panel is outfitted to provide power to the UV unit along
with a current sensor. Power to the UV unit is on all the time as long as power to the
control panel is provided. The current sensor is used to detect that current is being drawn
I from the UV bulb. If the bulb was to fail to operate, current would no longer flow to the
u bulb, and an alarm would be triggered at the control panel as the current sensor would no
longer detect current flow.
u
u

Frictional Losses
(� Frictional losses through the UV unit are minimal since the UV chamber is larger than
the discharge piping used with the discharge assembly. The UV unit has 2-inch inlets
and a 5-inch chamber. Based on calculations using factors from Cameron Hydraulic Data
(� handbook,the total frictional head loss assuming a flow rate of 30 gpm is 0.00856 ft
1 I (assumed to be negligible). Head loss calculations are attached.

IMPORTANT. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
n near children, and our equipment is no exception.
I d IMPORTANT. Always unplug the unit from an electrical outlet when not in use,
before servicing, cleaning or removing parts. Never yank the cord to pull the plug
(� from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
I IMPORTANT. SMART UVs are designed for low-pressure water applications with
or without aquatic livestock. 00 NOT use the EMPEROR AQUATICS, Inc.
SMART UV for any application other than Its intended use. The use of
n attachments not recommended or sold by Emperor Aquatics Inc. may
I j cause unsafe conditions and possibly void any warranty.
fl IMPORTANT. This unit must be wired in conjunction with a properly
I grounded, ground fault interrupter circuit (GFI).
Only (3) three wire grounded cables suitable for outdoor use should be used to
connect this unit. If joining cables for outdoor use, a suitable watertight cable
connector must be used. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper
rating should be used. A cord rated for less amperes or watts than the
appliance's rating may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that
(� it will not be tripped over or pulled. (If in doubt consult a qualified electrician)
Our GPM T-5 and T-6 low pressure mercury vapor germicidal lamps, convert
approximately 40% of their electrical input watts into UV-C output watts within the
germicidal action spectrum (meaning 40% of electricity used is converted into use-
ful germicidal UV light), the highest UV-C output conversion among all UV lamps.

USGS response concerning...Re: Broten Residence - Wastewater Discharge e

Mc Lash,
In response to your inquiry about the low-flow characteristics(7Q10,301 average annual discharge)for a location on an unnamed tributary to Allen Creek near
Waynesville in central Haywood County,the following information is provided:
A check of the low-flow Floss here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center(Raleigh office)does not indicate a previous 1pw-flow determination for the point
of interest(Identified by the lablong coordinates:35d 26m 52.53s N//83d 00m 11,88s V✓)described via attachments to your email dated July 27,2017,
i� No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for the point of interest
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow,analysis,estimates of low-flaw characteristics at ungaged locations are determined by
�.1 assessing a range in the low-flow yields(expressed as flow per square mile drainage area,ofcfsm)at nearby sites where such estimates have previously been

A basin delineation completed using She online USGS StreamStats application for North Carolina htt '//wa[erusns aov/osw/streamstats/forth corolla html
I( l indicates the drainage area for the point of interest is 0.14 sgmi.
l.j For streams in Haywood County,low-flaw characteristics published by the USGS are provided in the following reports:
�. (1)The first is 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
It and Mason,1993). An online version of the report is available at him JZoubs usasoov/wbsg(293epdrta�df. The report provides the low-flow characteristics(based
on data through 1986)via regional relations and at-site valves for sites with drainage basins between 1 and 400 sgmi and not considered or known to be affected by
( � regulation and/or diversions.
(2)The second is a statewide report published in March 2015. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2015-5001, Tovi characteristics and flow-duration
U statistics for selected USGS continuous-record streamgaging stations in North Carolina through 2012"(Weaver,2015). The report is available online
at htt pubs.usos.00v/sir2015/5001/. The report provides updated low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for 266 active(as of 2012 water year)and
r1, discontinued rtreamgages acroas the state where a minimum of 10 climatic years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Lj Inspection of the above reports indicates the presence of four(4)nearby selected USGS partial-record sites(2)and continuous-record streamgages(2)In general
vicinity of the point of interest where lowdlow characteristics were published. Among these 4 sites,the low-flow discharge yields for the indicated flow statistics are
( as follpWs:
lUl Annual 7Q10 discharge==>from 0.32 to 0.60 cfsm(average about 0.46 them)
Annual 3002 discharge==>from 0.69 to 0.97 cfsm(average about 082 cfsm)
Average annual discharge==>from about 2.4 to 3.6 crim(average about 2.8 Chun)
Application of the above range in yields to the belong,area(0.14 ram l)for the point of Interest results in the following estl mated low-flow discharges:
Arrival 7Q10 discharge==>from 0.04 to 0.08 cfs(average about 0.06 cis)
Annual 30Q2 discharge''==>from about 0.1 W about 014 cfs(average about 0.11 cfs)
Average annual discharge=_>from 034 to about 0.5 cfs(average about 04 cfs)
Please note the estimated flows are provided in units of cubic feet per second(cfs).

Summary for Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA)
Facility Name: Wastewater Facility for Broten Residence
for Non-Municipal Applicant
124 Skyview Drive,Waynesville,NC.
Haywood County
This project is located at 124 Skyview Drive,NC close to the City of Charlotte on Lake Wylie in
Mecklenburg County. This is an existing home originally built in the 60's with a failed septic
tank system. The community of homes on the peninsula on the lake are all served with septic
' tanks but each is served by a common community well. This house has a failed septic tank
system and is seeking a Direct Discharge Permit.
_i
The EAA is used to provide guidance to the regulating community for the evaluation of the
proposed wastewater disposal alternatives. This report is focused on summarizing the the Steps
which are written in report(more detailed) format as separate sections of the application.
The EAA is divided into several steps:
LSTEP 1:
1. Zero Flow Stream Restrictions.
The treated effluent would be discharged into a creek with positive flow.
2. Stream Classification for the Receiving Waters.
I This information was received and verified through the USGS office. The information is
LJ more detailed presented in the Watershed Classification Report of this application. The
following is summary information from the USGS:
The ontfall discharge is to an unnamed it ibutaty of Aliens Creel. The surface water classification
(� for this area is"WS C Tr"within the French Broad River watershed.
3. Basin wide Water Quality Plans:
L There does not appear to be any limitations on the French Broad River Basin that would limit the
residential wastewater discharges.
L4. Impaired Waters and TMDL's
There were currently no TMDL projects listed for this part of the French Broad River
L
11

1 1 5. Presence of Endangered Species.
The project was submitted to the following on 7-27-2017:
Rodney Butler
Conservation Data Manager
NC Natural Heritage Program
Division of Land and Water Stewardship
North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources
A response from the Heritage Program has not been received as of this date(8-20-17). It will be
n forwarded as soon as it is received. It has been re-requested.
l STEP 2:
n 1. Reasonable Projections for Population&Flow
l J The Project is an existing house. Bedrooms will not be added for more than the requested flow of
360 gpd. This design flow was used in the analysis and in conformance with 15A NCAC 211
.0219(1)which is summarized below:
The existing residential wastewater facility design flow is calculated by 120 gpd for 4 bedrooms
or 3 x 120=360 gpd.
STEP 3:
Evaluate technologically feasible alternatives:
r 1. Alternative A; Connection to an existing public wastewater system.
l Approximate Cost for Public Sewer:
[_ Joe Stines with the Town of Waynesville was contacted for the availability of sewer for this
property. Joe points out that the nearest sewer is currently very far from the site and located
j within the Town of Waynesville,which is north of the site. A map was provided that shows
approximate locations for the Public Sewer. The sewer is within and accessible through the State
DOT public right-of-way—predominantly in S.R. 41147 or Allens Creek Road. The distance to
La acquire public sewer is approximately 1,500 feet away.
1
Approximate cost for sewer main:
1,500'/8"gravity sewer laid adjacent to the existing road @ $110.00/ft. for pipe,manholes,
surveying and installation>> $165,000. The City could require the extension to go through the
property to serve upstream land,which is required for developments but for this example we will
I 1 assume that it stops at the house. In addition to the cost of installation,the costs of maintaining a
LJ 1,500 ft..of 8"main with 10 manholes over a 30 year period could potentially be devastating.
So, the sewer main would need to be turned over to the City for ownership and maintenance.
LI Tap fees a $800.00; Connection fee» $1,000.00
Total Approximate Cost for installation» $166,800
I Conclusion:
�J Because the existing sewer is far away from the house the costs are cost prohibitive for a single
home owner. Extending these costs over a 30 year period and the costs of providing sewer to a
j single residence is cost prohibitive. The Present Cost Analysis is included below:

1 The land around the site is developed and occupied by existing owners. The homes were
J built in the 60's, (this home in 1962)have small lots and have no available land with
good soils for repair. According to the Health Department,the creek in the rear has
"filled in" over the years and has saturated the disposal soils to the point where the
system is not useable. Each of the adjacent owners have their own existing sewer
systems. There is no other available land onsite for subsurface (or surface drip).
lj There are no golf course type businesses that could use a treated effluent for irrigation or
something similar.
Unfortunately none of the Soil onsite or nearby is available.
LHowever, should land become available,the following would apply:
Land in this area is being sold for approximately $40,000 per acre for within the
subdivision or land would have to be acquired outside of the subdivision at
approximately $20,000 per acre. Since the subdivision is built out with small lots then
land would have to become available outside of the subdivision. Access to the property
would need to be by current road right-of-ways. The closest land outside of the
subdivision is approximately 300' away.
LThe same wastewater treatment system would be utilized at the house with the same
design for collection and treatment. The effluent from the treatment process would then
I need to be pumped to the available site approximately 300 feet away.
The existing soils on the property and adjacent land according to the U.S. Dept of

I ; complex, 0 to 3%slopes,and occasionally flooded. According to the... this soil map unit
is poorly suited to septic tank absorption fields because of the wetness, flooding and the
�I poor filtering of effluent. Special design is needed for the absorption fields.
I Both are extremely bad soils for wastewater subsurface disposal. LTAR's could be very
low if possible in this Classification Group in order to spread the effluent over a larger

available land onsite for surface drip or spray.
- There are no golf course type businesses that could use a treated effluent for irrigation or

I1 Unfortunately,none of the Soil onsite or nearby is available.
lJI
However, should land become available,the following would apply:
`I Typical reasons for utilizing a surface system are when a subsurface solution is not
available. These would include but not be limited to a high seasonal water table,less
L' than 18"of permeable earth, or the residual material is full of clays or impermeable
material.
Land in this area is being sold for approximately$40,000 per acre for within the

I l Additional Costs for such a system above what would be required for the Direct
Discharge are summarized below:
It would be an advantage to minimize the amount of land that would need to be acquired.
Surface Drip and Spray require wide setbacks to protect the adjacent property owners.
Spray systems require the most of the two. In order to minimize the amount of land
required for a surface system then the drip option will be utilized.
Land requirements for surface systems are sized based upon the use of a water balance.
Such a system calculates on an imaginary acre of land an estimation of the amount of
(� rainfall(input into the soil) and an associated amount of output being evaporation,plant
uptake and soil permeability. The difference between the two (outputs—the input
1 (assuming a positive number)) is the amount of effluent that the acre parcel of land can
receive. An assumption for the results of a water balance will be to choose a value that is
appropriate for the DhA Soil Type,which is a type of soil with a high seasonal water
table so the value is not a minimum but a midrange value. The amount of effluent from
the project is 360 gpd.
li The amount of area required is approximately:
360 gals 365 days 12 in. 1 of 1 yr. = 8,707 sf.
II day yr. ft. 7.48 gals 24.21 in.
L. Tubing requirement for area is: 8,707sf/(48"/12")spacing=2,177 feet of drip tubing
This amount of drip tubing would require the standard residential Headworks unit. A
Repair area for a surface drip system is not required. The 8,707 sf of space is the useable
J size for the disposal. Assuming a square, it would equate to a 94' x 94' area. Applying
the required 50' setbacks to property lines and needing a 25' work area on one side
equates to an area approximately 194' x 219' or 0.97 acres.
The system would need to be treated to TS lI standards and further treated with chlorine
Uor UV Light for pathogens.

(� Alternative C; Wastewater Reuse
The land around the site is developed and/or occupied by existing owners. Each of the
adjacent owners have their own exisfing sewer systems.
I Water Reuse is a wonderful way of utilizing a resource that otherwise would be
discarded. Unfortunately, there are just a few ways that treated wastewater effluent can
be used as a reusable resource. Common avenues of reusable options would include
( irrigating with the effluent at a plant nursery, a golf course,landscaping or even a county
L� park. Another avenue of reuse could involve the residential property itself. The effluent
could be used as grey water for flushing toilets within the house which would not
eliminate the effluent but it would significantly reduce the amount of water used by the
f, home,
I In a practical way however, the house already has its plumbing built into the house as this
l.1 is an existing house. Therefore,the use of the effluent as grey water is not an option.
There are also no nurseries or golf courses available for use. The house does have
landscaping areas but the underlying soils are not suitable for any type of permeability.
tJ This house is just not capable for reuse.
However, should an area become available within close proximity (within 1 mile)then
i.J the option could become available and the following would apply for a Water Reuse
Option:
The same treatment system could be utilized for the reuse option. The effluent from the
f treatment process could be pumped to the facility that will utilize the treated effluent.
U
U

I ; The amount of effluent from the house is 360 gpd. A facility that could utilize this
amount of effluent on a daily basis would need to be able to utilize the extra
effluent/water on a daily basis and would probably be currently supplied by a water well
system or metered water from the City. The effluent from the house would supplement
their usage but probably not replace it and there would only be certain aspects of their
f� water demand where a treated effluent could be utilized. This report will assume that
such a facility exists as a golf course as that is the simplest and most inexpensive way of
reuse. The effluent will be used to supplement their sprinkler/irrigation system for their
greens and fairways.
Some golf course facilities have an onsite pond that is fed by rainfall but is also water
� well subsidized as needed. Their irrigation system is fed by pumping from this pond on
' almost a daily basis. Metered water from the City would be expensive to use for
Iirrigation. The house effluent would need to be treated to at least TS II standards and
l ! further treated with an ultraviolet light for pathogen protection. Once treated the effluent
l would need to be pumped through a 2"force main to the holding pond of the golf course
facility so that it could supplement the golf course facility. The golf course would
probably be located near the lake (utilizing the lake landscapes)and be within 1 mile of
the house. The force main will need to be installed through some property but
predominantly adjacent to existing streets within the City/State Right-of-Ways and be
( installed according to City/DOT Standards.
Costs for such a system are summarized below:
Additional Equipment at House:
Pump Tank=4,000 gal tank(needs required storage)

The following request is for a direct discharge wastewater(residential sewer)application for an existing single family 3 bedroom house. I
I� need to answer the question about the presence or absence of threatened or endangered aquatic species within the boundary of the
III wastewater treatment and discharge facilities so I will need a response to Include with the application. An email response would be
sufficient.
We have an existing 3 bedroom house that has an existing septic tank falling. Time is of the essence as the creek has saturated the soil and
has rendered the disposal area unusable. There Is no available land for a subsurface repair area for disposal so we are treating the effluent
to TS II standards and requesting a Direct Discharge permit to discharge to the creek. This permit requires us to evaluate for the
endangered species.
I
I have included the following Items for you to complete your Review within the project boundary. The purpose is to acquire the

Wastewater Facility Maintenance Plan-Direct Discharge
Common Maintenance Issues
Wastewater Disposal Facilities require plant,soil,and sometimes mulch maintenance to
ensure optimal infiltration,storage,and pollutant removal capabilities.Disposal System
�.I maintenance requirements are typical landscape care procedures and include:
1.Watering:Watering should not be required after establishment(about 2 to 3 years).
However,watering may be required during prolonged dry periods after plants are
f l established.
J 2.Erosion Control: Inspect areas for leaks,ponding,or surface overflow areas periodically.
l Replace soil,plant material,and/or mulch in areas where erosion has occurred. Erosion
problems should only occur during extreme weather events. If sediment is deposited in the
Discharge area,immediately determine the reason,remove excess deposits,and correct the
f ! problem.
l 1 3.Plant Material: Occasional pruning and/or removal of dead plant material may be
necessary over the Force Main. The Force Main is approximately 2'deep. Any plant
[ material that would adversely affect the pipe should not be planted or allowed to grow.
tJ Periodic weeding is necessary until groundcover plants are established.Weeding should
become less frequent as the design density is accomplished. Plants (grass) should be
( � mowed at a height consistent for good growth of cover.
l S.Mulch: (if used) Replace mulch annually in the Treatment Tank area where required.
Replace or add mulch as needed to maintain a 2 to 4 inch depth at least once every two
years. Do not cover the lids. They should be exposed and 1"to 3"above the ground.
6.Fencing: (if used)The fence is to protect the Wastewater Facility against outside
intrusion. It should be capable of being locked. Public access should never be allowed
so the locking mechanism should be kept operable. Should the fence become damaged,
it is the Owners responsibility to have it fixed or repaired in a timely manner. Once the
I fence has been repaired and the disposal area secured,the site should be investigated to
(J ensure that the area is complete. For most settings,the fence should be capable of
restricting access from rabbits,dogs, opossum,etc. that could cause burrowing and
I ' digging issues.
IL Examples of When to Perform Maintenance
U • Anywhere that shows signs of erosion or excess sediment deposition.
• Anywhere that pending has occurred.
• Surface of ground anywhere around the facility is damp on a dry day.
I(J • Plants are too high and need to be removed.
tJ
Pagel of 3

Important inspection and maintenance procedures:
—Immediately after the Wastewater Treatment Area is established,the plants should be
watered twice weekly ff needed until the plants become established(commonly six
weeks). Plants strategically placed and sized can stabilize the ground without causing
root damage to the tanks or lines.
—Snow,mulch or any other material should NEVER be piled on the surface of the
Wastewater Area.
n —Heavy equipment should NEVER be driven over any of the wastewater facility.
—Special care should be taken to prevent sediment from entering the Wastewater Area.
Inspection of the systemshould be conducted once a month and within 24 hours after
Levery storm event greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County).
Records of inspection and maintenance should be kept in a known set location and be
-� available upon request.
'I Inspection activities shall be performed as follows, Any problems that are found shall be
repaired immediately.

These Instructions provide a general guideline concerning when and how to pump out the Singulair Green system. This
literature supplements other instructional materials Included In the Singulair Green Bio-Kinetic System Product Manual.
rl In order to maximize performance,protect system Components and Insure protection of the surrounding environment,the
Singulair Green system should be thoroughly checked every six months by a factory-trained Norwecc service technician.An
initial service program that provides a minimum of four service inspections during the first me years of system operation
is included in the system purchase prim. Renewable service contracts to extend these routine inspections after the initial
program expires are availablefmm the local licensed Nciweco dealer.
The pretreatment chamber of the Singulair Green system will periodically require pumping. Because the Singulair Green
