MINI-SANTM MODEL 100
WASTEWATER CHLORINATOR FOR SMALL TREATMENT
PLANTS UP TO 10,000 GPD * -
THE SIMPLE, RELIABLE WAY TO
DISINFECT WASTEWATER
l
The SANURIL Mini-San Model. 100 Wastewater Chlorinator is a {.
complete one-piece system for highly reliable disinfection of f
treated effluent from any sewage plant having a design capacity
of 10,000 GPD or less. The chlorinator is used in conjunction with
SANURIL 115 Tablets, a new disinfecting agent that provides a � *
chemically stable source of chlorine for wastewater disinfection.
The SANURIL Mini-San Chlorinator can be installed in existing treat-
ment plants where wastewater chlorination is being added or to #4.
replace troublesome, unreliable or complicated chlorination systems.
It is equally suitable for factory assembly into new package plants.
Typical installations have included a wide range of sites such as:
Restaurants Highway Rest Stops Trailer Parks Recreation Parks Schoolsand manyothers
Service Stations Drilling Platforms Small Industrial Plants Camping Facilities
SANURIL - SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE AT A LOWER COST
I IN
Better Performance—The entire plant flow passes through the ^ :�
chlorinator where thorough mixing of wastewater with a controlled
amount of chlorine takes place. This means more effective
bactericidal action and less bacteria regrowth. �,,.,.✓
Low Initial Cost— In addition to low investment in the Mini- DVER
San Chlorinator, savings are compounded because no pumps, TOP
mixing tanks or costly control devices are required as with
most other chlorination systems.
Simple, Low-Cost Installation—One-piece chlorinator FEED TUBES We.
construction requires only inlet piping. No electrical power,
wiring, bypasses or other piping required.
Lower Operating Costs— Chlorinator operates up to 60 days on a WEATHER PROOF
single charge. No time-consuming pre-mixing of chemicals or costly CAPS
cylinder handling. Recharging SANURIL 115 tablets is quick and IL4 r.ill
s
easy. No costs for electrical power or auxiliary power
Maintenance-Free Operation— No tanks, pumps, cylinders, y
( external control devices or other moving parts to break down.
System is non-mechanical and rust and corrosion proof.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The SANURIL Chlorinator is a one-piece system which
operates on the flow-through principle to provide
1 a constant, controlled dosage of chlorine to the effluent
of wastewater treatment plants.
1 The entire flow of treated wastewater passes into the
chlorinator through the inlet pipe. As the stream
of water flows past the feed tubes containing the
SANURIL 115 tablets, active chlorine is released into
the wastewater by the dissolving action of the
water stream contacting the tablets.
At the outlet end a weir controls the water level p
in the chlorinator. This in turn automatically k }
controls the chlorine concentration regard- L "
less of surges in wastewater flow. As the
incoming flow rate increases,the water level : e
in the chlorinator rises, immersing a greater ' WATER
number of SANURIL 115 tablets.When the , OUTLET.
incoming flow decreases, the water level in the `
chlorinator drops, exposing fewer tablets to the
water. Since the amount of SANURIL 115 �?
dissolved depends on the number of tablets
immersed in the water,the chlorine concentra-
tion remains.constant, regardless of the rate a
of water flow through the chlorinator.

Each chlorinator is furnished with two feed tubes. IN`eT snnu TABLETS WEIR
The number of tubes to be filled with SANURIL 115

Dear Permittee:
The Division of Environmental Management has recently evaluated all existing individual permits for potential
coverage under general permits currently issued by the Division. 15A N.C.A.C.2H.0127 allows the Division to
evaluate groups of permits having similar discharge activities for coverage under general permits and issue
coverage where the Division finds control of the discharges more appropriate in this manner.The Division has
determined that the subject discharge qualifies for such coverage. Therefore, the Division is hereby issuing the
subject Certificate of Coverage under the state-NPDES general permit no. NCG550000 which shall void NPDES
Permit NC0045799. This Certificate of Coverage is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina and the
US Environmental Protection Agency Memorandum of Agreement dated December 6,1983 and as subsequently
amended.
If any parts,measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are unacceptable to
you,you have the right to submit an individual permit application,associated processing fee and letter requesting
coverage under an individual permit. Unless such demand is made,this decision shall be final and binding. Please
take notice this Certificate of Coverage is not transferable. Part II,E.4.addresses the requirements to be followed
in case of change of ownership or control of this discharge.
In.the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the
Permfttee shall take immediate corrective action,including those as may be required by this Division,such as the
construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities. Construction of any
wastewater treatment facilities will require issuance of an Authorization to Construct from this Division.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Certificate of Coverage and respective general permit may
subject the Pern-duee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C. Please note that the general permit does require
monitoring in accordance with federal law. The monitoring data is not required to be submitted to the Division
unless specifically requested,however,the permittee is required to maintain all records for a period of at least
three (3) years.

4. Act or"the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act,also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33
USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled
and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during
such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the
pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days
the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average' in Part I of the
permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge"is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday)on which daily discharges
are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during_such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average'
in Pan I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge"is the total mass (weight)of a pollutant discharged during
a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant
calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as 'Daily
Maximum," in Part I of the permit
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured,divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such
year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found
each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were
reported This limitation is defined as "Annual Average"in Part I of the permit.

Part 11
Page 2 of 14
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration,"other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of
the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month
on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value)of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average"under"Other Limits"in
Part I of the permit.
b. The"average weekly concentration,"other than for fecal coliform bacteria,is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week
(Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the
number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of
the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by
flow value)of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count
for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during
a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average'under"Other Limits" in
Pan I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a
calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of
pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration'. It is identified as
"Daily Maximum" under"Other Limits'in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration,"other than for fecal coliform bacteria,is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for
-i fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar year. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average' under"Other Limits' in
Part I of the permit.
e. The"daily average concentration' (for dissolved oxygen)is the minimum allowable amount
of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged
over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the
sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration' for the discharge. It is
identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.
f. The "quarterly average concentration' is the average of all samples taken over a calendar
quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation"in the text of Part I of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through
March, April through June, July through September, and October through December.

Part 11
Page 3 of 14
7. OlherMeasurvments
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded
during the calendar month.
b. An 'instantaneous flow measurement"is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling,
when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement'is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which
occurs continually 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.
8. TVnes of Samoles
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) 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
(2) 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 present gallon interval between sample
collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment
system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of
flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time
of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time
intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the
detention time of the system in number of days. However,in no case may the time interval
between effluent grab samples be greater.than six(6)hours nor the number of samples less
than four(4)during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must.be
representative of the discharge or the receiving waters.
9. Calculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of

Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NCO045799
MITCHELL COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 10/17/88 expires on 9/30/93. North
Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143-215. 1(c) requires that an
application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to the
expiration date. As of the date of this letter, the Division of
Environmental Management had not received an application for renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur
after the permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is
desired, it must not be allowed to expire. A renewal request must be
submitted no later than 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date.
Operation of the waste treatment works or continuation of a discharge
after the expiration date would constitute a violation of MUGS 143-215. 1
and could result in assessment of civil penalties of tip to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request
renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil
assessment of at least $250 00; larger penalties may be assessed
depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application shall consist of the following information:
1. A letter requesting the renewal.
2. The completed application form (copy attached), signed and
submitted in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of North Carolina
Administrative Code (15A NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a).
3. A processing fee (see attached schedule) in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0105(b). The application processing fee is based on the
design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the
first categories of facilities.
4. Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a
priority pollutant analysis in accordance with Part 122.21,

n r,
5. Facilities which have not been constructed within the last
permit cycle and are therefore, considered "new" facilities,
shall also submit an Engineering Alternatives Analysis,
referenced in 15A NCAC Subchapter 2H .0103 and Subchapter.
2➢ .0201(c).
6. If the facility covered by this permit contains some type of
treatment works, a narrative description of the sludge management
plan must be submitted with the application for the renewal.
In addition to penalities referenced above, a permit renewal.
request received after the expiration date will be considered as
a new application and will require the higher application fee.
15A NCAC 2H .0105(b)(2) requires payment of an annual
Administrative and Compliance Monitoring fee for most permitted
facilities. You will be billed separately for that fee (if
applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application,
and appropriate fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural.Resources which may be abbreviated as
DEHNR.
If there are questions or a need for additional information
regarding the permit renewal procedure, please contact me or any
Individual in the NPDES Group at telephone number (919) 733-5083.

with its NPDES Permit.
If, in the future, the residence is sold, please inform the new

Dear JOHNNY GOUGE
Our files indicate that the subject permit for a wastewater discharge to the -
surface water expires, on 890131. GS 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application
for renewal must be filed 180 days prior to the expiration date. We have not
received an application for renewal from you as of this date.
A renewal application shall consist of a letter requesting renewal along
with the appropriate completed and signed application form referenced in
Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H, .0105.
Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the Code of
Federal Regulations, Part 122 (40 CFR Part 122), shall submit a priority
pollutant analysis that is performed in accordance with 40 CFR Part 122. 21.
A processing fee of $100.00 and a public notice fee of $50.00 must
accompany the application. One check for $150.00 may be submitted with the
application.
This matter should be given prompt attention in that continued discharge
after the permit's expiration, without the filing of a complete and tinely
application for renewal, constitutes discharge without a permit and is a
violation ofGS 143-215. 1.(a) and the Federal Clean Water Act of 1977.
Application for renewal should be submitted to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
NC Division of Environmental Management
PO Box 27687

Subject: Expiration of NPDES
Permit No. NC 0045799
Mitchell County
Dear Mr. Gauge:
A review of our files indicates that the Subject permit for wastewater
discharge to surface waters will expire on June 30, 1984
General Statutes 143-215.1(c) requires that an application for renewal must
be filed 180 days prior to the permit expiration date. We have not received
an application for permit renewal from you as of this date.
If there is no change proposed for the discharge, the application for
permit renewal need to only consist of a letter requesting permit renewal.
Proposed changes in the discharge require the submission of a new application
form requesting renewal.
Please give this matter prompt attention in that continued discharge
after the permit expiration date without the filing of a complete and timely
application for renewal constitutes discharge without a permit and is a
violation of N. C. General Statutes 143-215 .1(a) and the Federal Clean Water
Act of 1977. Application for renewal should be submitted to:
Mr. Robert Helms , Director
N. C. Division of Environmental Management
P. 0. Box 27687
Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Ms.
