Re: Notice of Intent, NGC 530000 of
12/29/93; Cooper Creek Trout Farm
�����p\)RG1�OFE1C,• <.
Dear Ms. Wilson:
Thank you for'the telephone call on March 1 advising of a threshold
limit on NGC 530000, that no one discharge point can exceed 5,000,000 gal/day,
and the total from all discharge points cannot exceed 7,000,000 gal/day.
We used a computer program (Hydroflo) to estimate discharge volumes in
the NOI. The estimate was high for at least two reasons. The pipe itself is
buried and not easily inspected, so its fittings and condition can not be
modeled. Also, Hydroflo only models water delivered from a full pipe. The
F
Main Race flow involves pipes that are not full at the discharge end.
I discussed this with our extension agent. He suggested using a formula
based on measurement of the fall of water discharged from a pipe, an
explanation of which is included as Attachment A.
We measured the flow in the five six-inch pipes discharging water from
the tail of Main Race Tank 1B into Tank 2B at full capacity. This flow is
representative of all tanks in the Main Race and easily accessible for
measurement. We also measured flow into the Fry Race at full capacity.
Results are shown below, and measurements and computations are shown on
Attachment B. The results indicate that we are well under the 5 MGD General
Permit threshold limit and that it is not possible to operate the farm with a
discharge in excess of 5 million gallons a day, at least with the existing
structures.
REVISED FLOW ESTIMATE
Discharge source gallons per minute gallons per day
Main Race 2,219 3,195,360
Fry Race 657.7 947,088
Hatchery 30 43,200
TOTAL 2,906.7 4,185,648

4
The total shown above includes all volumes that pass through Discharge Points
1 and 2.
DISTRIBUTION TANK FLOOR DRAIN
There is a six-inch floor drain inside the Distribution Tank that is
equipped with a standpipe. The standpipe helps control the water level in the
tank and prevents the Distribution Tank from overflowing. The drain
discharges into Cooper Creek approximately 800 feet upstream of Discharge
Point 2, adjacent to the Distribution Tank. An occasional discharge of
several hundred gallons may occur from this pipe during a major adjustment of
the water level in the tank or during heavy rains. Such events may be
expected several times each year. The Distribution Tank is critical to farm
operation and is closely monitored. An overflow would be quickly corrected.
If there were a discharge, it would consist of creek water, from which some
sediment has been removed by settlement in the Distribution Tank.
This discharge is de minimis and involves no farm wastes at all.
Practically, it should not be a discharge point under NGC 530000. However,
this information is provided in the event it must be included as Discharge
Point 3.
SPECIFIC MODIFICATIONS TO THE NOTICE OF INTENT
Based on the above, Section 4 of the 12/29/93 Application is modified to
read as follows:
4. Description of Discharge.
B. Please describe the amount of wastewater being discharged per each
separate discharge point. DISCHARGE POINT 1: 4,500,000 GALLONS/DAY, LESS MOUNT
DISCHARGED THRouGH DISCHARGE POINT 2. DISCHARGE POINT 2: 7,000 GALLONS/WEEK OR LESS,
INTERHITTENTLY.

Dear Permittee:
You are receiving this notice because you currently operate a fish farm or fish packing/rinsing facility
covered under the subject General Permit. NCG530000 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.
If you are not sure what type of system your property has, contact Keith Haynes in the NC DENR
Asheville Regional Office at(828)296-4500. That person [or other staff members] can help you
determine if you should renew your CoC.
➢ If you know that your facility no longer discharges to a waterbody,contact me at the address or
phone number listed below to request rescission of the CoC.
The attached application form shows the information the Division has on file for your property. Please
verify that the provided information is correct,or make corrections on the form. Complete the additional
questions,then sign and date the form. The completed form should be submitted to the address listed below
the signature block.
If you have any questions concerning this matter,please contact me at the telephone number or e-mail
address listed below. (If it is difficult to reach me,please be aware that your facility is one of over 1400 that I
am contacting regarding the renewal of several General Permits.) Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Dear Permittee:
Your facility is currently covered for wastewater discharge under General Permit NCG530000. 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 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
coverage 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. Your facility will be invoiced for the annual
permit fee at a later date.
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 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 Aisha Lau of the Central Office Stormwater Unit at(919)733-5083,ext.578

Section D:Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
This inspection was prompted by a complaint stating that Cooper Creek was turbid due to activities at
the Cooper Creek trout farm. Present for the inspection were Jerry Laschober, owner, and Debra
Sloan, aquaculture consultant with the North Carolina Department of Agriculture&Consumer Services.
Upon entering the property it was observed that the dam on the fish out pond had been breached
resulting in turbidity downstream. This type failure has occurred on one other occasion on another part
of the dam.There was some siltation directly downstream of the failure but the receiving stream below
the outfall appeared free of silt and solids.
The owner outlined a strategy to repair the dam while working in the dry and has remained in contact
with the inspector as repairs have been made. There have been no additional complaints made about
the trout farm.
The trout farm itself appears to be well maintained.The intake structure takes in enough water to
sustain the raceways while maintaining adequate flow to the section of stream below the intake and
above the outfall. Waste is managed through the use of three settling ponds in series which are then
routed into the fishing pond before being discharged to the receiving stream. The owner has plans to
install a vacuum system for the raceways to better manage solids within the system.
No violations of permit requirements or applicable regulations were observed during this inspection.

NPDES Application for
Cooper Creek Trout Farm
Description of Existing Treatment Facilities
Wastewater treatment facilities consist of screens, settlement and
sediment ponds.
I. Description of water flow.
There are two discharge points, labeled in red as #1 (continuous) and #2
(intermittent) on Diagram #1C. The course of the water also is indicated on
diagram #1C in blue.
Water drawn from Cooper Creek enters the distribution tank at the north
end of the main race through an 1.8" culvert. From there it flows to the main
race, the fry race, and to the hatchery. (A small amount of spring water is
also delivered to the hatchery) .
Water from the main race passes into a sump at the south end of the
race. From this sump it may flow into Pond 3, or loop through another
distribution sump, into race tanks 7A and 7B, the hatchery ditch, and into
Pond 2 and then Pond 3. Water in the distribution sump may also pass directly
into Pond 3.
Water from the fry race passes into the fry race ditch, and then into
the hatchery ditch, into which hatchery water also flows. From the hatchery
ditch, water flows through an 18" culvert beneath race tank 7B, into Pond 2,
and then Pond 3. Pond 3 flows into Pond 1. Pond 1 exits through a standpipe
at its south end, over a cascade, and into a ditch that discharges into Cooper
Creek.
In summary, all continuous flow from the main race tanks 1A,B through
7A,B, the fry race, and the hatchery, discharges through Pond 1 into Cooper
Creek by way of discharge point #1.
II. Sedimentation areas
Sedimentation occurs in the race tanks (with the possible exception of
tank 7A), in ponds 1-3 and in the hatchery and fry race ditches. Accumulated
sediment flushed from race tanks 1A,B through 6A,B is collected in Sediment
Ponds A and B. Sediment flushed from tank 7B is collected in Sediment Pond C.
Tank 7A is not enclosed but open directly into the hatchery ditch. These
areas will require periodic sediment removal and disposal. Ponds 1 and 3, and
Sediment Ponds A and B, have recently been cleared of sediment. Pond 2, and
the hatchery and fry race ditches will be scheduled for cleaning in the coming
year.
By design, sediment from main race tanks 1A and B through 6A and B would
ll be discharged through a 4" bottom drain in each tank to Sediment Pond A at the
`�J

Att. J Page 2
end of the race each race tank holds about 6600 gallons, only part of which
would be used in flushing sediment from the tank). Such flows are
intermittent, the duration and oc cur rence of which are determined by the need
to clean the tanks. Previous operators have cleaned tanks on schedules
ranging from daily to weekly. However, these 4" lines are badly damaged and
cannot be used. Until they are repaired, sediment from tanks 1A and B through
6A and B will be pumped into Sediment Pond A. Pond A overflows to Sediment
Pond B. Pond B overflows through a ditch to the south end of the farm.
There, this intermittent flow joins the continuous flow from Pond 1 that
discharges by ditch into Cooper Creek. Tank 7B flushes through a 4" line into
Sediment Pond C. Flow from there is though an 18" culvert into Cooper Creek
through discharge point #2.
III. Pond Dimensions and Turnover.
Pond dimensions and volumes are approximations: Volumes have been
calculated as the product of averaging surface and bottom areas and average
working depth.
A. ((Pond 1 /Working volume of Pond 1 is approximated on Diagram 1 as
229,427 gallons, with a working surface area of about 8,464 sq.
ft. and a bottom surface of about 6,872 sq. ft. At a maximum flow
of 4,000 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond 1 would be about
57 minutes.
B. (�ond 2 j Working volume of Pond 2 is approximated on Diagram 2 as
( l 18,535 gallons, with a working surface area of about 1,108 sq. ft.
- and a bottom surface of about 874 sq. ft. At a maximum flow of
4,000 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond 2 would be a little
over 4 1/2 minutes.
F
C. Pond 3. Working volume of Pond 3 is approximated on Diagram 3 as
54,499 gallons, with a working surface area of about 2,123 sq. ft,
and a bottom surface of about 1,520 sq. ft. At a maximum flow of
4,000 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond 3 would be a little
over 13 1/2 minutes.
D. Sediment Pond A:_j Maximum volume of Pond A is approximated on
Diagram 4 as 12,230 gallons, with a maximum surface area of about
686 sq. ft. and a bottom surface area of about 404 sq. ft. At a
maximum flow of 300 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond A would
be almost 41 minutes.
E. Sediment Pond; B; Maximum volume of Pond B is approximated on
Diagram 4 as 6,807 gallons, with a maximum surface area of about
547 sq. ft. and a bottom surface area of about 363 sq. ft. At a
maximum flow of 300 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond B would
be almost 23 minutes.
F. _Sediment Pond ,C� Design depth of Pond C is at least one foot.
f 1 Silt removal will be necessary to attain that depth. At a one
\J

Att. :9,,Page 3
foot design depth, the maximum volume of Pond C is approximated on
Diagram 5 as 4,140 gallons, with a maximum surface area of about
596 sq. ft. and a bottom surface area of about 511 sq. ft. At a
maximum flow of 300 gpm, the minimum turnover time in Pond C would
be almost 14 minutes.
IV. Screens.
Screens of 1/4" X 1/2" mesh are installed in each tank 1A and B through
7A and B. Similar screens are also installed in each lower fry race tank.
Upper fry race screens are 1/8" perforated steel. The outflow from Pond 1 is
screened by parallel steel bars at a 1/2" separation.

September 1993). Woody's Trout Farm Inc, ceased operations at the end of
1992, and the farm was sold to my wife and me in a default auction in the
spring of this year. We are now repairing the farm and intend to operate it
as a trout farm. The NPDES permit sought herein is for that purpose.
Ms. Kerry Becker of your Asheville office advised me that the $400 fee
for this application is waived, as a result of Title 15A NCAC Subchapter 2H
Section .0105(b)(3) and a recent legislative change that defines trout farmers
as "farmers". If the fee is required, please advise me as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Doug 7as A. Crockett

.Conder Solutions Ltd, part of the EPS Group, is the UK's No. I turnkey package
solution provider for water and wastewater;storage,pumping and treatment.
From our UK-based manufacturing at Europe's largest automated'GRP tank manufacturing facility "
® and with over 40 years' experience, Conder delivers quality products and solutions to customers
around the world.
As.:part of a strategic review of our supply base, Conder considered a number of air delivery
t systems for our sewage treatment plants: Charles Austen were selected as preferred supplier of
diaphragm pumps (used in our low population sewage treatment plants), based on their reputation
for quality product and service.
• After three years of trading we have experienced a dramatic reduction in service failures and have
'not experienced a supply problem. When problems with installed products are encountered (which
have been very few), response and support have been second to none:
Conder's decision to change supplier has definitely been vindicated and I look forward to working
with Charles Austen for some time to come.
Dave Parkinson
Supply Chain Manager
Conder Solutions Ltd.
S,& S Site Services—We are a company in the north west of England specialising in waste water
treatment. We have been using the ET range of Compressors on various systems for several years
and find them to be easy to fit,very quiet and extremely reliable.
1 would estimate that we have fitted 200— 300 over the last three years and we haven't had a
single failure or problem to date.
Andrew Houghton,
Service Manager,
S&S Site Services Ltd.
Marsh Industries—"We have used Charles Austen compressors since they were first launched,
'over that period they have proved extremely reliable with only one reported failure out of over two
thousand used, and even that one it was debateable whether it was the unit at fault. Charles
Austen are very competitive on pricing but more importantly excellent on service.!'

• Optimum oxygen transfer efficiency is achieved when operating in the middle to low end of the airflow range.
The approximate operating pressure of the diffuser at the mid-range is 18-25 inches H2O(4.5-6.2 kPa).
• Operating the unit at the high end of the range will result in reduced performance and increased operating pressure.
Use the maximum airflow value for short term operations such as peak loads or system maintenance.
