for Single Family Residence
1210 North Prestonwood Drive
Hendersonville, North Carolina 28791
Henderson County
Dear Mr. Wallis:
General Permit Coverage. In accordance with your application for discharge, the Division of
Water Quality (DWR) herewith forwards the subject Certificate of Coverage (COC) to discharge under
the subject state-NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North
Carolina General Statue 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the
US Environmental Protection agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). Your permit
package includes:
o A copy of the Certificate of Coverage for your treatment facility
o A copy of General Wastewater Discharge Pen -nit NCG550000
13 A copy of a Technical Bulletin for General Wastewater Discharge Permit NCG550000
13 A copy of the approved drawings, signed October 28, 2013.
11 Engineer's Certification form (to be completed and returned to DWR).
DWR understands from your authorized consultant, Altamont Enviromnental, Inc. of Asheville that local
soils, both on and offsite, exhibit poor percolation characteristics rendering them unsuitable for a
subsurface discharge wastewater treatment system. We further understand that connecting to the nearest
municipal sewer service is cost prohibitive at a distance of 2.8 miles. We concur therefore that discharge
to surface. waters of the State is the most viable discharge alternative.
In accord with existing regulations, you have proposed.to discharge 360 gallons per day (gpd) from a
three (3) bedroom single family residence (120 gpd per bedroom). Please note that compliance under this
COC restricts discharge to 100% domestic flow, not to exceed 1,000 gpd. This discharge must meet all
surface water -quality standards, and you must comply with DWR's operation and maintenance
requirements.
Operation and Maintenance. The Permittee is responsible to maintain all components in the approved
treatment system. Compliance includes following manufacturer's guidelines, conducting and
documenting inspections, establishing sources for OEM spare parts and supplies, making necessary
repairs, and documenting said maintenance for the duration of the permit.
Upon DWR's request, the Permittee must provide records and demonstrate efforts to maintain the
approved system. The Division recommends that the Permittee solicit manufacture -certified training, or
employ a qualified contractor or service to regularly inspect and maintain the treatment system.
Page 1 of 5

If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are
unacceptable, 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
require modification or revocation and reissuance of the COC. This permit does not affect the legal
requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Resources or
permits required by the Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal
or Local governmental permit that may be required.
This system is proposed to discharge to an unnamed tributary (UT) of Shaw Creek surface waters
classified as Water Supply (WS-IV). Discharge to WS waters was approved on October 28, 2013 by
Regional Engineer Bill Coroner, P.E. (PWSS), Asheville Regional Office (ARO).
Authorization to Construct (ATC) Permit. According to the permit application and the attached
approved plans and specifications, DWR hereby authorizes installation of:
• influent gravity drain line [existing]
• septic tank [existing 1,000 gallons]
• dosing tank [1,000 gallon] control panel; pump recirculation ratio [4:1]
• dual (2) recirculating sand filters
• tablet chlorinator
• chlorine -contact chamber
• tablet de -chlorination [labeled "dechlorination ONLY"]
• discharge sump and pump
• sample box / port
• effluent filter [50-micron] and
• outfall rip -rap erosion control
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 10 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; 50-ft setback from property line [hereby waved to 20 feet due
to lot -size restrictions].
This ATC permit is issued in accordance with Part III, Paragraph 2 of NPDES General Permit
NCG550000, and is subject to revocation unless wastewater treatment facilities are constructed in
accordance with the 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 A
to C 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.
The Permittee or responsible Engineer shall notify DWR's Asheville Regional Office (828-296-4500) a
minimum of three 3) working dUs in advance of operating the installed facilities. This will serve to
provide DWR an opportunity to inspect facilities, as needed. Such notification to the regional office
supervisor shall be made during normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Monday through
Friday, excluding State holidays.
Upon completing construction and prior to operating this permitted facility, a North Carolina -

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. 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
(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.
Page 5 of 16 Pages

General Permit NCG550000
➢ 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).

DESCRIPTION
Model 100 JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator Is a complete
chlorine dispensing system. The Model 100 has a 4%n diame-
ter Inlet and outlet. It Is designed to handle the flow of treated
effluent from wastewater treatment plants with design flows
up to 1500 gallons pper day. It can also chlorinata the effluent
tram septic Eanka .when Installed after a filter bed.
The JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator has no moving or elec-
trical parts. It uses JET-CHLOR Disinfecting Tablets - not
powders or gases. The JET Chlorinator works by gravity flow
alone chlorine dosage automatically adjusts with Increases
and decreases in effluent flow.
HOW THE CHLORINATOR WORKS
The JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator consists of a housing •�;
and two tablet feed tubes. The chlorinator Is installed di- " (;
rectly In the ground on the plants discharge line so the plant -
discharge flaws through it. Feed tubes and chlorine can-
tact channel control the direction of the flow within the. a
chlorinator. -
Slow -dissolving JET-CHLOR Tablets at the bottom of the •:-
feed tubes are Immersed in the effluent Thoy'dlesolve

the tablets dissolve Js regulated automaticallyay'-the liquid.
height and by varying the amount of tablets,in?contact,with
the effluent.
When the flaw of effluent Increases, the Ilquid_Javel in.Yh'e .,
housing rises, covering more tablets and releasing more -
chlorine. When the flow decreases, the Iiquldllevel goes down. -.
As a result, fewer chlorine tablets are immersed and -less -
chlorine is released. In this way, the rote al which=the chlorine
tablets dissolve is continuously adjusted; to -the offuent flaw.

1.0 Executive Summary
This Supplemental Information for the General Permit Application (SI Report) provides information for a
proposed recirculation sand filtration system (see Figures 1 through 9 for engineering drawings) to serve a
residence at 1210 North Prestonwood Drive in Hendersonville, North Carolina. The system is sized to serve
a three -bedroom house. The treated effluent will discharge into Shaw Creek.
This SI Report includes, among other relevant material, the following pertinent information:
• An analysis of the feasibility of connection to an available community sewer (municipal or other) for
the proposed site (see Section 4.3.1).
• A letter from a licensed North Carolina Soil Scientist at the NC Department of Health and Human
Services to the Henderson County Environmental Health Department describing the suitability or
non -suitability of the site for all types of wastewater ground absorption systems (see. Appendix A).
• Walker Ferguson, a licensed soil scientist, provided correspondence on March 21, 2013 stating that
a suitable area for a subsurface wastewater system was not available at the property.
• A description that no additional adjacent property is available for alternative treatment of the
wastewater (see Section 4.3.2).

2.0 Introduction
Mr. Al Wallis contacted Altamont Environmental, Inc. (Altamont) regarding a residential property he owns at
1210 North Prestonwood Drive (the site), located in Henderson County, North Carolina. Mr. Wallis needs
septic services at his residential home on the site, and contacted Altamont to perform the engineering .
services related to the permitting and design of a residential wastewater treatment system at the address
mentioned above. The federally regulated National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program
ensures all point source discharges are properly permitted. In North Carolina, the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is responsible
for administering the State's NPDES Permitting and Compliance Program.
The site will be a domestic discharge from a single-family residence with a design flow below 1,000 gallons
per day, and therefore qualifies for an NPDES General Permit NCG550000.
This SI Report provides information related to the site and proposed wastewater system to accompany the
General Permit Application for an NCG550000 Permit.

3.0 Background.
An initial'investigation in 2012 determined the following:
• The property is a 0.97-acre tract located along Shaw Creek in Hendersonville, North Carolina. The
Henderson County parcel identification number (PIN) is 9549-56-1300.
• A letter to the Henderson County Environmental Health Department dated May 9, 2012 and.signed
by a North Carolina Soil Scientist (Appendix A) stated that the site is "UNSUITABLE for the installation
of a subsurface sewage treatment and disposal repair system." The site was deemed unsuitable by
the State for the following reasons, citing Title 15A Subchapter 18A of the North Carolina
Administrative Code (NCAC):
o Unsuitable soil structure and expansive mineralogy (Rule .1491)
o Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942)
o Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)
o Unsuitable depth to restrictive horizon (Rule .1944)
o. Lack of available space (Rule .1945)
o Unsuitable saprolite (Rule .1956)
• Walker Ferguson, a licensed soil scientist, provided correspondence on' March 21, 2013 stating that
a suitable area for a subsurface wastewater system was.not available at the property.

4.0 Supplemental Information
4.1 Determination Whether Proposed Discharge is Allowed
4.1.1 Zero -Flow Stream Restrictions and 7Q10 Flow Estimation
August 9, 2013
Page 4
In a preliminary assessment on July 18, 2013, Mr. J. Curtis Weaver, hydrologist with the United States
Geologic Survey (USGS) North Carolina Water Science.Center, confirmed that stream flow at the proposed
discharge location is above zero (Appendix B). Because the receiving stream is not a zero -flow stream, the
effluent limitations of the wastewater discharge will be determined according to 15A NCAC 2B.0206(a), and
the proposed discharge is not likely to be prohibited.
4.1.2 Receiving Stream Classification Restrictions
Various high quality streams have restrictions on discharge requirements and require stricter treatment
standards than lesser quality streams. The receiving stream, Shaw Creek, is classified as a WS-IV stream
(Appendix C).. According to 15A NCAC 2B.0101, Class WS-IV waters are protected as water supplies, which
are generally in moderately to highly developed watersheds. Point source discharges of treated wastewater
are permitted pursuant to Rules .0104 and .0216 of this subchapter. Local programs to control nonpoint
sources and stormwater discharges of pollution shall be required.
In accordance with 15A NCAC 0213.0201, High Quality Waters (HQW) and Outstanding Resource Waters
(ORW) are subsets of waters with a quality higher than the standards and degradation shall not be. allowed
below the water quality necessary to maintain existing and anticipated uses of those waters. Shaw Creek is not classified as either HQW or ORW, and is therefore subject to water -quality -based effluent limitations in
accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0216. Furthermore, stream classification restrictions are not -likely to
prohibit the proposed discharge to Shaw Creek.
4.1.3 Basinwide Water Quality Plans
The receiving water body, Shaw Creek, is within the__1,658-square-mile Upper French. Broad subbasin. More
specifically, Shaw Creek is within the Mud Creek watershed 10-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC),
0601010503. In accordance with the Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) Guidance Document (EEA
Guidance Document; DWQ 2005), the 2011 French Broad Basinwide Water Quality Plan (BWQP) (Tutwiler
and Clark 2011), which contains the receiving water body, was located and referenced for restricting
limitations. At the point of discharge, the basin -specific plan does not list any NPDES permitting strategies or
limitations on the receiving water body, Shaw Creek.
4.1.4 Impaired Waters and Total Maximum Daily Loads
The term "303(d) list" is short for the list of impaired and threatened waters (stream/river segments, lakes)
that the Clean Water Act requires all states to submit for US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approval
every two years on even -numbered years. The states identify all waters where required pollution controls are
not sufficient to attain or maintain applicable water quality standards, and establish priorities for
development of total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) based on the severity of the pollution and the sensitivity
of the uses to be made of the waters, among other factors (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR]
§130.7[b][4])•
At the location of discharge, Shaw Creek is not listed on the NC 2010 Integrated Report Category 5-303(d)
List Approved by the EPA August 31, 2010, or the 2012 NC 303(d) Lists -Category 5. Consequently, at the
location of discharge Shaw Creek is not listed as impaired and does not have a TMDL. Therefore the
P:\Wallis NPDES\Info: For Permit\Supinfo - Report Wallis.Docx

Supplemental Information for General Permit Application
Al Wallis-1210 North Prestonwood Drive
August 9, 2013
Page 5
proposed wastewater discharge from the site is not likely to have an impact on impaired streams or those
with TMDLs.
4.1.5 Presence of Endangered Species
Federally listed endangered and threatened species are designated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
and are protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Habitat for endangered and
threatened species is of utmost importance; consequently, NPDES discharges into streams that may
negatively impact endangered or threatened species' habitat are not environmentally advantageous.
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NHP), which is part of the Office of Conservation, Planning,
and Community Affairs within DENR, is responsible for maintaining inventories and catalogues of
outstanding elements of natural diversity within NC. John Finnegan, of NHP was contacted on July 16, 2013
in regards to the site and the presence of endangered species within the discharge location on Shaw Creek.
On July 17, 2013, Harry LeGrand of NHP provided documentation (Appendix D) stating that:
"The Natural Heritage Program has no records of any rare species, significant natural communities,
significant natural heritage areas, or conservation/managed areas at the site nor within a mile of
the project area."
Therefore, it is not likely that the proposed discharge will adversely affect endangered or threatened species
habitat near the site.
4.2 Reasonable Projections for Population and Flow
The site is not part of an existing or proposed expansion of a municipal wastewater treatment plant and
therefore the non -municipal flow projections were made in accordance with the anticipated future
development as a residential property.
The EAA Guidance Document dated June 23, 2005 requests non -municipal flow projections be made in
accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(1). However,.since the publication of this guidance document, the
above -referenced rule was repealed on September 1, 2006. Consequently, the projected flow was based on
15A NCAC 02T .0114, where the flow rate is 120 gallons per day for each bedroom. Mr. Wallis plans to
maintain a residential home with a maximum of three bedrooms; therefore, the estimated amount of
wastewater to be discharged is 360 gallons per day.
4.3 Evaluation of Technologically Feasible Alternatives
4.3.1 Connection to Existing Wastewater Treatment Plant
The nearest sewer system maintained by the City of Hendersonville public sewerage system is approximately
2.8 miles east of the property on Davis Mountain Road. The expense of constructing a sanitary sewer line to
this location would be, impractical based on the current value of the property, and therefore is not a feasible
option.
4.3.2 Land Application Alternatives
Land application alternatives include on -site subsurface systems, drip irrigation, and spray irrigation. The
size of a subsurface disposal field is determined by the anticipated design flow and the Long Term
Acceptance Rate (LTAR). The residential home has a maximum of three bedrooms, and the anticipated daily
flow based on 15A NCAC 02T .0114, where the flow rate is 120 gallons per day for each bedroom, is 360
gallons per day.
P:\Wallis NPDES\Info For Permit\Supinfo - Report Wallis.Docx

Supplemental Information for General Permit Application August 9, 2013
Al Wallis-1210 North Prestonwood Drive Page 6
In 2012, Vicky Goings, Onsite Program Specialist with the Henderson County Environmental Health
Department, and Karen Wallace, a licensed soil scientist with the North Carolina Department of Health and
Human Services, performed a preliminary soil and site evaluation on the site. A letter from Mrs. Wallace to
the Henderson County Environmental Health Department, dated May 9, 2012 (Appendix A), stated that the
site is "UNSUITABLE for the installation of a subsurface sewage treatment system." The site was deemed
unsuitable by the State in the letter for the following reasons, citing Title 15A Subchapter 18A of NCAC:
• Unsuitable soil structure and expansive mineralogy.(Rule .1491)
• Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942)
• Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943)
• Unsuitable depth to restrictive horizon (Rule .1944)
• Lack of available space (Rule .1945)
• Unsuitable saprolite (Rule .1956)
Soil wetness conditions less than 36 inches below the naturally occurring soil surface shall be considered
UNSUITABLE for a ground absorption sewage system (i.e., traditional septic system) (15A NCAC 18A .1942).
Furthermore, 24 inches of suitable soil is required for a modified septic tank system (15A NCAC 18A .1956).
Therefore, the site is not suitable for either a ground absorption system or a modified septic tank system.
Based on the above -mentioned information, the necessary area for a land application system and repair
field is 3,600 square feet (360 gallons per day/ 0.2 gallons per day per square foot x 2). Because no area
on the site is suitable, the only alternative for land application requires the purchase of adjacent land from
neighboring property owners.
According to the available Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), effective date October 2, 2008 (Appendix E),
and the NC Flood Map (Appendix F), it appears a large portion of the target property and many of the nearby
properties are in the floodplain. Shaw Creek is on the southwest border of the property and an unnamed
tributary exists to the west of the property. The property to the south east is also bordering Shaw Creek and
is also in the floodplain. Mr. Wallis contacted the surrounding property owners but was unable to secure an
easement for his septic system. Consequently, land application is not a viable option on -site or on an
adjacent property.
4.3.3 Wastewater Reuse
Wastewater reuse applications typically include golf course irrigation, crop irrigation, athletic field irrigation,
toilet flushing, and industrial uses. According the EAA Guidance Document (DENR 2005), although the
wastewater may undergo varying levels of treatment prior to land application, the wastewater must still meet
the design requirements in 15A NCAC 2H.0219. The above rule has since been repealed on September 1,
2006.
The site is located within a floodplain and prone to frequent flooding; furthermore, from the previous analysis
of land application alternatives (Section 4.3.2), the site is unsuitable for land application. According to 15A
NCAC 02U .0402, reclaimed water irrigation systems shall not exceed the recommended precipitation rate in
the soils report, -and due to the unsuitability of the soil for land application, it is unlikely the soils would be
conducive for irrigation purposes. Furthermore, if alterative reuse strategies were employed such as
graywater used in toilet flushing, the wastewater would still require treatment prior to being discharged and
land application is already considered unsuitable. Consequently, reuse of wastewater is not a reasonable
alternative.
P:\Wallis NPDES\Info For Permit\Supinfo - Report Wallis.Docx

Supplemental Information for General Permit Application August 9, 2013
Al Wallis-1210 North Prestonwood Drive Page 7
4.3.4 Combination of the Above
A letter to the Henderson County Environmental Health Department dated May 9, 201.2 (Appendix A) stated
that the site is "UNSUITABLE for the installation of a subsurface sewage treatment system". It is not
possible to operate a ground absorption system during the dry season, due to soil unsuitability, and operate
an NPDES discharge permit during the wet season when soils may not be as amenable to land application.
Any combination involving ground absorption is a non -viable alternative.
A water reuse system will lead to an NPDES discharge permit since the discharge cannot be utilized in a
ground absorption system. If connection to existing sewer were possible, this would be the preferred
alternative. However, no connection is feasible at this time, and therefore, no combinations exist involving
sewer connection.
4.4 Reliability
The system will contain two electric pumps connected to a control panel. Treated effluent will pass through
static disinfection contact chambers prior to discharge. In the event of a power failure, the control panel and
pumps will not function. The system serves as a private system that will automatically shut-off at power
failure and does not include elevated water storage tanks. The system is supplied by a well that would stop
supplying water for further use in the event of a power outage.

Subject: Soil/Site evaluation for Jose and Anna Camacho
Location: 1210 N. Prestonwood Drive, Hendersonville, NC 28739
Size: 0.97 acres
Dear Mrs. Goings:
Jeffrey P. Engel, M.D.
State Health Director
On May 8, 2012, you and I performed a soil and site evaluation of the aforementioned property to
determine its suitability for a subsurface sewage treatment and disposal repair system for a 2
bedroom residence. An existing community well is the water supply and borders the property. A
creek also borders the property.
The soil on the site has a surface horizon of 5 to 9 inches of sandy loam soil with moderate granular
structure and friable moist consistence. Approximately 8 inches of fill material was encountered at
the surface behind the residence. The subsurface horizon has 3 to 10 inches of compacted sandy
loam soil with weak subangular blocky and platy structure with .firm moist consistence with iron
concentrations and mottles of 2.5Y 5/2 in color. Soil, in the second subsurface horizon of 8 to 19
inches has a sandy clay loam texture.with subangular blocky to massive structure, very firm moist
consistence, and very plastic wet consistence. Color included mottles of 2.5Y 7-8/2 and 2.5Y 6/1.
Sandy clay loam to sandy loam saprolite was encountered below the second subsurface horizon with
2.5Y 6/1 matrix color.
The site is UNSUITABLE for the installation of a subsurface sewage. treatment and disposal repair
system due to shallow depth to soil wetness (Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1942), unsuitable soil structure
(Rule 15A NCAC 18A..1941), expansive mineralogy (Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1941), unsuitable soil
depth (Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1943), depth to restrictive horizon (Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1944);
unsuitable saprolite (Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1956), and lack of available space (Rule 15A NCAC 18A
.1945).
Additional options may be pursued: -
1. The applicant may obtain an offsite area that is provisionally suitable or suitable for the subsurface
treatment and disposal systems. Appropriate easements shall be obtained.

2. A subsurface treatment and disposal system can be pursued under Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1948
(d). Written documentation must be submitted to your office showing that the proposed
wastewater system can be expected to function properly. The data mustcontain the following:
A. The effluent must be non-pathogenic, non-infectious, non -toxic, and non -hazardous.
B. The effluent must not contaminate the ground water and surface water.
C. The effluent must not be exposed to the ground surface or discharged to surface waters where
it could come into contact with people, animals, or vectors.
3. The Division of Water Quality in Swannanoa, NC (828-296-4500) may be contacted about
securing a discharge permit. The applicant is. strongly advised to contact someone with
knowledge of discharge systems to evaluate the site before contacting this office.
4. The applicant or the owner may have the site evaluated by a NC Licensed Soil Scientist.
If you have any further questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,

7/19/13 Altarnont Environmental, Inc. Mail - Initial USGS response concerning... Re: 7010 and 3OQ2 Inquiry- Shaw Creek Henderson County, North Carolina
Wyatt Ed- i < ,,dco-1@ 6t mont nvironm ri l.com>
Initial USGS response concerning... Re: 7Q10 and 30Q2 Inquiry - Shaw Creek,
Henderson County, North Carolina
I rnes sac. c
Weaver; John <jcweaver@usgs.'gov> Thu, Jul 18, 2013 at 9:36 AM
To: Wyatt Edsel<[e-mail]>
Cc: John Weaver <[e-mail]>
Mr. Edsel,
In response to your inquiry about the low flow characteristics (7Q10, 30Q2) for a location on, Shaw' Creek near
Horse Shoe in Henderson 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 a previous
low -flow determination for your specific point of interest on Shaw Creek (35.336444,-82.5382; email from you
dated July 16, 2013) . No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for your 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 drainage -area delineation completed using the online NC StreamStats application (http://Water.usgs.gov/osw/
streamstats/north_carolina.html) indicates the drainage area for your point of interest is 4.69 sgmi.
For streams in Henderson County, the most recently published low -flow information 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.uscis.gov/wsp/2403/report.pdf. 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.
Please note the low -flow characteristics in the statewide report are based on data ending during the late 1980's
and do not reflect the occurrence of recent droughts, which have resulted in decreased low -flow statistics at
some USGS gaging stations.
Based on nearby USGS continuous -record streamgages and partial -record sites in vici5. nity of the Shaw Creek
basin where low -flow characteristics were published in the statewide report, the annual 7Q10 yields range from
about 0.31 to 0.64 cfsm (average approximately.0.43 cfsm). In a similar manner, the annual 30Q2 yields range
from 0.67 to 1.1 cfsm (average approximately 0.84 cfsm).
Please note this group of nearby sites includes a partial -record site located on Shaw Creek at Horse Shoe
(station id 03443765, drainage area 5.36 sgmi, at U.S. Highway 64) just downstream from your point of interest.
The 7Q10 and 30Q2 low -flow yields published for this site in the above -referenced low -flow report are 0.39 and
0.67 cfsm, respectively, -which are a little lower than the averages determined from the above ranges.
Applying the annual 7Q10 and 30Q2 yields for the downstream partial -record site to the drainage area for your
point of interest results in annual 7Q10 and 30Q2 discharges estimated at about 1.8 and 3.1 cfs, respectively.
Please understand this information is based on a.preliminary assessment. Further analyses would be needed to

7119/13 Altamont Emhronmental, Inc. Mail - Initial USGS response concerning... Re: 7Q10 and 30Q2 Inquiry- Shaw Creek Henderson County, North Carolina
confirm the initial assessments, and a fee of $250 per site is required for completion of a more in-depth
assessment and formal determination of estimates (7Q10, 30Q2, winter 7Q10, 7Q2, and average flow). If you
want us to complete a more in-depth assessment, please provide a contact name and address for billing
purposes and we'll proceed from there. The assessment would be completed within four to six weeks, and the
response would be made via email with an inwice mailed separately via regular mail following the provision of
estimates.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.

Dear Mr. Edsel:
The Natural Heritage Program has no record of rare species, significant natural communities, significant
natural heritage areas, or conservation/managed areas at the site nor within a -mile of the project area.
Although our maps do not show records of such natural heritage elements in the project area, it does not
necessarily mean that they are not present. It may simply mean that the area has not been surveyed. The
use of Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys, particularly if the
project area contains suitable habitat for rare species, significant natural communities, or priority natural
areas.
You may wish to check the Natural Heritage Program database website at http://www.nenhp.org.
Use the NHP "Map Viewer" tab to search for records of rare species, natural communities,
significant natural areas, and managed areas within various distances (1 mile to 5 mile radius
choices) of your project area; or use the "Database Search" tool for listings of rare species and
natural communities by county and USGS 7.5-minute topo map. You can also download GIS
shapefiles of our data; click on "Download Natural Heritage Program shapefiles" for more
information. To view the site ratings of significant natural areas, plus the scoring methodology,
click on "Publications", then "NTHP Publications", then enter "2013" in the Search box, then
click on the Download for the "NC NE? Biennial Protection Plan."
