Certificate of Coverage NCG551010
Swain County
Dear Permittee:
You are receiving this notice because you currently own a property covered under the subject
General Permit for the discharge of domestic wastewater. NCG550000 will expire on July 31, 2007.
Federal (40 CFR 122.41) and North Carolina (15A NCAC 2H.0105(e))regulations require
that permit renewal applications be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit.
To satisfy this requirement, the Division must receive a renewal request postmarked no later than
February 1, 2007.
The Certificate of Coverage (CoC) specific to your property was last issued on August 1, 2002.
The Division needs information from you to determine if coverage under NCG550000 is still
necessary.
➢ If your property still has a wastewater system like the ones described in the enclosed
Technical Bulletin, you must renew the subject CoC. Complete the enclosed form and
submit it to the address on the form.
➢ If you are not sure what type of system your property has, contact Keith Haynes in the
NC DENR Asheville Regional Office at. That person [or other staff members] can help
you determine if you should renew your CoC.
➢ If you know that your property no longer discharges wastewater, contact me at the
address or phone number listed below to request rescission of the CoC.
➢ This information request does not pertain to the Annual Fee of$50.00 billed
separately by the Division's Budget Office. No money is required for this
procedure. The Annual Fee is like the fee you annually pay the DMV for the sticker on
your vehicle's license plate. Renewal of your CoC is like the renewal of your Driver's
License [ca. every five years]
➢ If you have already mailed a renewal request, you may disregard this notice.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The property is located between Lower Alarka Road and Alarka Creek
measuring at its maximum width 60 feet and 20 feet at its narrowest . The
property is approximately 150 feet long. I have spoken with both the
DOT right of way office in Sylva and the maintenance office in Bryson
City and both confirm that there is no right of way along this particular
stretch of road. There is only a shoulder maintenance associated with
NCSR 1309 .
It should be noted that none of the buffer requirements can be met for
this project . The well itself is located only 40 feet from the septic
tank instead of the required 100 feet . I have discussed with Mr. Collins
the Division' s concerns regarding the buffer distances especially the
one pertaining to his well . It is his intention that the project
continue in spite of these concerns . Since this residence is being
considered an "existing" residence, the Asheville Regional Office is
recommending that the permit be issued.

900 gallons for three bedrooms. The Division recommends the use of a 900 gallon tank for
a two bedroom and a 1200 gallon tank for a three bedroom unit. If excavation into
bedrock is necessary for the septic tank or sand filter then a liner of at least 10 mm
thickness shall be provided for the septic tank and/or sand filter.
Ub Sand Filters; These shall be used to provide secondary treatment. Dual or recirculating
filters are required for new systems. For dual sand filters, the loading rate shall be

per square foot for secondary filters. Recirculating Sand Filters should be able to handle
5.0 GPD per square foot with no more than a 3:1 recirculating ratio. Sand shall conform
Y: to the Division's standards of 0.35 to OS mm effective size,3.0 uniformity coefficient,
and OS%dust content.
c. Chlorination; The chlorine contact chamber shall have at least a 30 minute detention
time. The volume should be calculated as follows: Volume(gallons)=(design flow x
0.5)/ 24 hours. Discharge pipe from the chlorinator shall be perforated.
d.Cascade aeration should consist of a 5 step concrete trough but may also be made of rip
rap.
NOTE: Construction of any wastewater treatment facilities require submission of three(3) sets of plans
and specifications along with their application. Design of treatment facilities must comply

Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under general permit NCG550000,the Division of
Water Quality(DWQ)is forwarding herewith the reissued wastewater general permit Certificate of Coverage
(COC). This COC is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the
Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency,
dated May 9, 1994(or as subsquently amended).
The following information is included with your permit package:
* A copy of the Certificate of Coverage for your treatment facility
* A copy of General Wastewater Discharge Permit NCG550000
* A copy of a Technical Bulletin for General Wastewater Discharge Permit NCG550000
Your coverage under this general permit is not transferable except after notice to DWQ. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the Certificate of Coverage. This permit does not affect the legal
requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR or relieve the permittee from responsibility
for compliance with any other applicable federal,state,or local law rule,standard,ordinance,order,judgment,or
decree.
Please note that effective January 1, 1999 the fees for all permits issued by DWQ were changed. This changed the
fee for your wastewater general permit coverage from a$240 fee paid once every five years to a yearly fee of$50.
If you have not already been billed this year for the yearly fee,you will receive a bill later this year.
If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact Bill Mills of the Central Office Stormwater

Subject: NPDES Wastewater Permit Coverage Renewal
Collins James R-residence
COC Number NCG551010
Swain County
Dear Permittee:
Your residence or facility is currently covered for wastewater discharge under General Permit NCG550000. This
permit expires on July 31,2002. Division of Water Quality(DWQ)staff is in the process of rewriting this permit
with a scheduled reissue in the summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued,your residence or facility would be
eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit,you must apply to the DWQ for renewal of
your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in-advance that your permit will
be expiring. Enclosed you will find a general permit coverage renewal application form. This will serve as
your application for renewal of your permit coverage. The application must be completed and returned with the
required information by February 01,2002 in order to assure continued coverage under the general permit.There is
no renewal fee associated with this process.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least$250.00. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of wastewater from your
residence or facility without coverage under a valid wastewater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of
NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to$10,000 per day.
If the subject wastewater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated,please complete the enclosed
rescission request form. Mailing instructions are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the
rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit coverage renewal procedures please contact the Asheville Regional
Office at 828-251-6208 or Bill Mills of the Central Office Stormwater Unit at(919)733-5083,ext.548

GPD/square foot for each filter, another distribution box, 138 square foot(6X 23) secondary
sandfilter with a loading rate of not more than 2.3 GPD/square foot,chlorination unit, chlorine
contact chamber, dechlorination unit, and rip rap aeration with a discharge of treated wastewater
into an Alarka Creek classified C Tr waters in the Little Tennessee River Basin. We recommend
that the collection lines be vented and all elbow piping must be of the long sweeping type. This
