The plans and specifications for the project submitted to.date are inadequate for approval. The following information is needed: 1. Details of the connection of the recirculation pump to the piping is needed to assure that easy removal and replacement can be done. 2. Details showing how the water supply will be cut off if a pump or power failure occurs is needed. 3. Dual pumps are required by T15A: 02H .0219 (j) . A second pump must be on hand for replacement to comply with this requirement, along with the documentation requested in number one and two above. The plans should indicate that a second pump will be available. 4. Calculations are needed showing how the recirculation ratio is achieved. Valve(s) are needed to adjust the recirculation ratio initially and as conditions change. 5. Preliminary calculations indicate that the one inch pump distribution line is too small, i.e. it introduces a significant amount of head loss relative to the orifices. A larger size of around two inches would be preferable. This line as designed inside the 4 inch distribution pipe would allow the possibility of septic tank effluent being discharged to the chlorine contact basin. The pump discharge line must be routed in such a manner to avoid this possibility. Routing this line upstream of the sand filter would accomplish this and avoid the need for sizing orifices in the small pipe.

The 1-1/2 inch pump discharge line is minimal for the rated pump capacity. - A larger size is recommended for reduced velocity and headloss. 7. A profile of the flow through the treatment system is needed, including relative elevations of inlets and outlets. 8. Indicate the size and location of holes in the distribution and collection piping. 9. A liner for the sand filter is required by .0219 (f). The six mil plastic specified does not have sufficient structural integrity to comply with this requirement. 10. As stated in the design requirements in the Notice of -Intent for coverage under the general permit, rip -rap may be used in lieu of the five step aerator. The aerator shown is satisfactory, however, it may -be more difficult and costly than rip -rap. 11. Although the specified 50 foot buffer 'from a stream is controlling in this situation, a 50 foot buffer from property lines is also required. The specifications should be modified to reflect this requirement. 12. A vicinity map and site plan is needed showing how the treatment system will be laid out on the property. Please submit the necessary revisions to this office for review. If you have any questions, you may call me at 704-251-6208. Sincerely, Paul R. White, P. E.

Valve locations: The short lift of the pump in recirculation with the holes in the 1 inch in the sand filter and the 1/2" diameter feeding the sanuril would not require a check valve. If the recirculation is not balanced correctly we can add a valve both to the 1 inch and the 1/2 in pipes. 2. The system has been redesigned so 2 pumps are not required. 3. 5 areation steps are on the new print.] 4. For the pump used there is 45 GPM with a 10 foot head. 5. A pump tank, 1000 gallons with no baffle and a riser are now used. The riser is cemented to the tank and 24 hour leak tested. 6. The recirculation ratio is achieved by using a 1 inch discharge back into the filter and a 1/2 inch discharge into the clorinator. This provides a 75 percent return to the sand filter. If more return is needed item 1 will be incorporated. 7. The print shows the flow profile. It should be noted a dual sand filter was recommended but the ground elevation requries more than 6 feet of drop for two filters. The land does not have that much elevation in 100 feet and the system would have to be built above ground which the owner does not want to do. S. The hole size and locations are now on the print. 9. The liner is now shown on the print. 10. There is a automatic cutoff in case of system failure to prevent water flow. The house is on a well so no discharge can occur during power outage.

Power reliability requirements of .0219 (j) (B) are needed. This can be met by either A, B, or C: A. Automatically activated standby power supply on site, B. Verification that the facility: i. Is on a private water system which has automatic shut-off at power failure and no elevated storage, ii. Has sufficient storage capacity that no potential for overflow exists, iii. Can tolerate septic wastewater due to prolonged detention, or C . Where the waters that would be impacted by a power failure are classified as C Waters, the applicant may show a history of power reliability that would demonstrate that power reliability measures would not be needed. - The concern is that the system may discharge inadequately treated wastewater either to Boyleston Creek or to the groundwater in the event of a power failure or failure of the recirculation pump or system. It is recommended that you use a dual sand filter, which does not require a pump, to avoid the power reliability measures required by the regulations.

The soil on the escarpment does not meet the 24 inch minimum depth requirement for a LPPS. However, if there is enough land available, design modifications can be made to compensate for the shallow depth. 2. The escarpment exceeds the 10 percent maximum slope requirement for a LPPS, however, design modifications may be possible to overcome this limitation. 3. If the above two limitations can be overcome, I recommend a long term acceptance rate of 0.10 gallons per day per square foot of trench. 4. Install the trenches on level and on contour. SPRAY IRRIGATION SYSTEM 1. Total field capacity of the soil on the steep escarpment is about 3.5 inches of water per 20 inches of soil. Infiltration rate is about 3 inches of water per hour at the surface and 1 inch per hour at the top of the subsoil. 2. Application rate for spray irrigation should not exceed 0.3 inch per hour to avoid runoff and should not add more that 1.0 inch of water to the soil per application to avoid saturation of the surface layer which would result in lateral seep at the top slope - floodplain boundary. 1 State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources 4 • Division of Environmental Management James B. Hunt, Jr. Governor. ID E H Jonathan B. Howes, Secretary Nann Guthrie, Regional Manager Asheville Regional Office WATER QUALITY SECTION November 2, 1993 Mr. Glenn Hollifield c/o Carland Ford Tractor Post Office Box 5096 Hendersonville, North Carolina 28645 Subject: NPDES Permit Application Turnpike Road (SR 1328) Boyleston Creek Henderson County Dear Mr. Hollifield: I have received the report from the soils investigation by Mr. John Allison of the Division of Soil and Water Conservation, which was done on October 14, 1993. Based on this investigation and a copy of the plat of the property which you provided, this site would not be suitable for a spray .or drip irrigation system. There are limitations to the acceptance of the wastewater due to slope and shallow soil depth. In addition, there is inadequate area for buffers to property lines and the stream for surface. disposal. If additional property is available, we could consider this option further. However, based on the information received to date, we would not recommend that a spray or drip irrigation permit for on -site wastewater disposal be issued for this site. There are some efforts underway to establish some type of centralized wastewater facility for Spring Lake Subdivision. This could be an option,which would allow you to connect to. If this is to be a reality in the near future, you should explore the cost of connecting to this system. If you wish to apply for a discharge permit, please submit the following items: 1. A letter from the Henderson County Health Department addressing the availability of an on -site subsurface disposal system. 2. A statement to the effect that additional property is not available in the immediate area.

The application form is enclosed. 4. A check or money order for the application fee of. $240.00 payable to the N. C. Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources. (The $400.00 fee stated in the application is incorrect.) 5. Location map. 6. Plans and. specifications, including location on the property, buffers, and detailed drawings of each component. For the General Permit, the treatment system must consist of a septic tank, dual or recirculating sand filter, disinfection, and post aeration. Most of this information is requested on the application form. The classification of Boyleston Creek in this area is "C". While this is not required for a single family residence, you may wish to hire an engineer to complete the application and necessary plans and specifications. If not, it is suggested that you provide preliminary drawings to the Asheville Regional Office for review to assure that a complete and acceptable application package is submitted. I have enclosed some standard drawings with minimum design standards for your use. Also enclosed is a copy of the general permit and an application form.

Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. Annual Average The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Day The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. Calendar Week The period from Sunday through the following Saturday. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 mL in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or Version 1110912011.1 )ES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 18 (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following restrictions also apply: ➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters ➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also "Composite Sample," above.) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Daily Sampling Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s). DWR or "the Division" The Division of Water Resources, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Effluent Wastewater discharged following all treatment processes from a water pollution control facility or other point source whether treated or untreated. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission EPA The United States Environmental Protection Agency Facility Closure Cessation of all activities that require coverage under this NPDES permit. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded. Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]") shall be considered = 1. Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 mL collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Version 1110912011.1 PDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 3 of 18 Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the CWA. Instantaneous flow measurement The flow measured during the minimum time required for the flow measuring device or method to produce 'a result in that instance. To the extent practical, instantaneous flow measurements coincide with the collection of any grab samples required for the same sampling period so that together the samples and flow are representative of the discharge during that sampling period. Monthly Average concentration limit The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authoritv The Director of the Division of Water Resources. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe property damage Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the CWA. Upset An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Permittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements. An upset does not include noncompliance caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. _Weekly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar week. In the case of fecal coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1.

Ms. Trahan was contacted prior to the site inspection, but was not present at the time of the inspection. Therefore, no septic tank pumping records were available for review at the time of the inspection. The proper size and type of chlorination tablets were present in two chlorination tubes and appeared to be operational at the time of the inspection. Liquid was visible in the chlorine contact chamber and appeared to be free of solids. The effluent pipe was located and was discharging a small volume of liquid at the time of the inspection. No.foam or other debris were observed in the discharge. The system appeared to be well -maintained and functioning properly at the time of the inspection.
