Dear Mr. Noxel:
Below is the information you requested regarding a permit to discharge wastewater generated at a
single-family residence (or a small generator) that does not have a traditional septic tank and
distribution field as an option. In order for the_Division of Water Quality to comply with 15A NCAC 2H
.0105 (c) (3), all other wastewater treatment and disposal alternatives must be explored prior to
considering a discharge option. To obtain a permit to discharge wastewater the following criteria
must be met:
• A letter addressing the feasibility of connection to an available community sewer (municipal or
other) for the proposed site.
• A letter from the Transylvania County Health Department describing the suitability or non-
suitability of the site for ALL types of wastewater ground adsorption systems.
• A letter from a North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist, which states there is no available surface
disposal (spray irrigation or drip irrigation of treated wastewater.) alternative available. (Must be
stamped and signed with his / her professional seal.)
• A letter of justification from the applicant that no additional adjacent property is available for any of
the above types of disposal system. This should be both a financial justification and an
environmental justification referencing; ground adsorption, spray irrigation and drip irrigation
wastewater systems.

Lastly, any submitted application must include a wastewater system design, which will adequately
handle the proposed waste to be generated from the planned residence. As newly constructed
wastewater treatment and disposal systems must include a septic tank, primary and secondary (or re-
circulating) sand filters, disinfection, and post aeration apparatus. The submitted application must
include plans and specifications for the proposed wastewater treatment system.
As the Division of Water Quality considers any form of discharge to be the least desirable option,
the Asheville Regional Office will only consider an application, which includes all of the above listed
materials. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (828) 296-4500.
