flow accepted, and name and permit number of the receiving sewers/WWTF. The flow acceptance must not
expire prior to permit issuance and must be dated less than a year prior to the application date.
Intergovernmental agreements or other contracts will not be accepted in lieu of a project -specific flow acceptance
letter.
❑ VI. Map — Submit an 8.5-inch by 11-inch COLOR copy of the portion of a 7.5-minute USGS Topographic Map along
with this form. The map should identify the entire project area location as well as the closest downslope surface
waters as clearly as possible. Each map portion must be labeled with the map name and number, the identified
location of the sewer line and pump stations, and be of clear and reproducible quality. For instance, if the project
involves 4 miles of interceptor sewer that traverses over or near several different waterbodies (or counties,
basins, etc.), the map should have location ID's shown for each different waterbody (where the sewer line is within
100 feet of such waterbody - see Instruction VII). This location ID is self chosen and used to cross reference the
location in Section C of the permit application.
❑ VII. Stream Classifications — Section C
• If any portion of the project is within 100 feet of any down slope surface water, Section C must be completed
for the pertinent sections.
• If the entire project area is a minimum of 100 feet away from any down slope surface waters BUT there is a
pump station involved where a history of power outage is to be used to provide adequate design storage
instead of dual feed or permanent or portable generator, Section C must be completed to demonstrate that
the closest down slope surface water is Class C (see 15A NCAC 2H .0219(h)(3)(D)).
• Use the guidance document entitled, "Determining Watershed Classifications for Form FTA 02/03 (Fast -Track
Sewer Systems)" available from http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/peres or by contacting the appropriate regional
office.

FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06)

Main Problems Noted: A flow acceptance letter is provided by the receiving WWTP owner but
not the downstream sewer owner, which both are different from the applicant. Example, private
developer in Knightdale. Both Knightdale and Raleigh would need to provide a flow acceptance
lett r as Knightdale wi11transEort the wastewater and Raleigh will treat the wastewater.
Wastewater indu Clbe
omestic nature?
♦ Most projects or water that is domestic in nature, however, if Item B.6 indicates
that the wastewater is industrial in nature, notify the Regional Office Pretreatment
Coordinator or the WQ Pretreatment Unit Central Office to determine if a pretreatment permit
�,is needed or if a program already in place and compliant.
�" Flow volume calculated correctly? 2H .0219(1)
♦ Ensure that the daily design flow in the application is based on the guidance provided in the
regulations or existing flow, and that the explanation as to how this volume was determined is
very specific (i.e., 22 three -bedroom homes, 50,000 s.f. of retail space, 18 employees, etc).
This information will be included in the description of the system in the permit. Our regs say
120 gpd/bedroom for residential. Note that for one -bedroom the minimum they can use is
240 gpd.
♦ if daily design flow is not based on regulations, ensure that the applicant has an approved
flow reduction of daily design flow rate on file with the Division. A list of approved flow
reductions may be obtained from the DWQ Intranet or by contacting the PERCS. Flow
reduction requests are to be reviewed by the central office, and must be reviewed and
approved before the application is accepted by the regional office for review.
♦ On occasion, there may be an instance where supporting documentation is submitted with
the application for a specific facility. Contact PERCS to determine a course of action.
♦ Ensure that the flows shown on the application match up to what is shown on the plans (if
available for review). For example, if the application states that 100 lots are to be developed,
ensure that there are 100 lots, and not 150 lots, shown on the plans. Plans are only required
for review if the applicant is requesting a variance to the MDC or the .0200's.
♦ Do not allocate "future" wastewater flows (i.e., that based on speculative development).
These would be permitted in future wastewater collection system extensions. Although, we
do allocate "unknown" flows on a per acre basis for industrial/commercial park applications.
Generally, the Division has accepted between 900 gpd/acre —1500 gpd/acre. Let the
-engineer support his calculation.
Adequate information provided regarding the proposed gravity sewer and/or force main (if
applicable)?
Note 1: An Environmental Assessment may be required if there are 3 miles of gravity sewer over
18-inches in diameter (15A NCAC 1C .0100). Environmental Assessment projects can NOT go
Fast -Track!
Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is
specified and no variance requested
//Adequate information provided regarding the proposed pump station(s) (if applicable)?
Note: An Environmental Assessment may be required if the pump station(s) have a firm capacity
of 1,750 GPM or greater (15A NCAC 1 C .0100). If there are any questions about whether an EA
may be required, discuss with your supervisor or contact Alex Marks of the Planning Branch's
Local Government Assistance Unit.
♦ Power reliability at the pump station provided in accordance with Section 5.04 of the
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains
document (i.e. dual line feed, portable generator w/telemetry, permanent generator with
automatic transfer switch, wet well storage if near Class C waters)? Note 1: Section C of the
FTA has to be completed and show a Class C down slope water in order to use wet well
storage as a reliability option. Include the special condition in the permit. You will need to
ask for storage calculations and the power outage data. Note 2: Ensure telemetry is specified
if a portable generator is called out. Check with the engineer if unsure. Note 3: Ensure an
automatic transfer switch (ATS) is specified if a permanent (standby) generator is specified.
Check with the engineer if unsure.
Main Problems Noted: Failure to specify appropriate or applicable power reliability option

forward one copy of the supporting documents to the Central Office for review, indicating the
permit number, owner and project name. The Central Office will review the variance request, and
if approvable specific language regarding the variance will be forwarded to the Regional Office
reviewer to incorporate into the permit. A copy of the variance letter provided by the central office
should be kept with the application file. If you catch something in the application or supporting
documents that is not in accordance with our regs or MDC, send an additional information
request.
Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is
specified and no variance requested; supporting documents show slope issues...

Engineer's Board web site (www.ncbels.org - the PE number must be six digits, use leading 0
when needed).
♦ If the PE seal number does not show up on the web site database, call the PE Board for
verification [phone].
Drafting a Permit
♦ In order to be consistent, use the most current version of the Fast -Track permit shell. This permit
shell contains specific language with respect to the Minimum Design Criteria, regulations, and
collection system permitting. The PERCS will notify you of any changes to_ this permit shell.
♦ Be specific with respect the system description and information. Indicate the flow, what the project
will be serving, length and size of gravity sewer lines and force mains, etc. For projects involving
pump stations, the size of the pump stations, as well as the reliability option and.any additional info
(telemetry, odor control system, etc) should be included. A sample permit is on the DWQ Intranet.
♦ Add or remove any special conditions as necessary. Please call attention to any non-standard permit
conditions in the cover letter of the permit and include the permit condition where necessary. See the
Example Special Conditions document.
♦ If the project is a modification, don't forget to include the system description from the previous permit
and void the previous permit in the language! Some of these can be tricky so feel free to run the
drafted permit through PERCS first before issuance.
♦ It is preferable if Fast -Tracks are saved electronically by permit number under issued year and month.

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 Dav
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
Version 1110912011.1

NPDES Permit Standard Cona
Page 2
(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.
➢ 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.

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).

Interference
Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which
causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the
Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in
compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(14)]
Pass Through
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with
discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of
the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge
permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)]
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization.
This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal
sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T
.0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government
organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges
to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW
treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of
POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)]
"Significant Industrial User" or "SIU"
An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(33)]:
1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary,
noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or
2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted
flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS
and ammonia; or
3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or
4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely
affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent
limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options;
5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and
conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a
Significant Industrial User (SIU); or
6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may detennine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a
non -significant categorical Industrial User.

transport, which would be subject to section 301 or 306 of CWA if it were directly discharging those pollutants;
and
2. Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced by an indirect discharger as
influent to that POTW at the time of issuance of the permit.
3. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality and quantity of effluent
introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact that may result from the change of the quantity or
quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW.
Section C. Municipal Control of Pollutants from Industrial Users.
Effluent limitations are listed in Part I of this permit. Other pollutants attributable to inputs from Industrial Users
discharging to the POTW may be present in the Permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information
becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent
limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality
standards.
Prohibited Discharges
a. The Permittee shall develop and enforce their Pretreatment Program to implement the prohibition against the
introduction of pollutants or discharges into the waste treatment system or waste collection system which
cause or contribute to Pass Through or Interference as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0900 and 40 CFR 403. [40

STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
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.
B ass
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 nil 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 tinge 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

NPDES Permit Standard
totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1,
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hot
a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. Th
may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. Th(
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.
➢ 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. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean
concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all
grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2)
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).

Summary
Linville Riverbend RV Park is a proposed recreational facility on 14.16 acres, bordering U.S.
Highway 221 on the north and the Linville River on the south. The site will encompass 150 full
hook-up campsites for RV and tent campers. Streamflow estimates were performed by USGS
and submitted by the facility as part of the EAA. A level B model was performed for the
proposed discharge and secondary limits were shown to protect the receiving stream. The
facility will receive a TRC limit of 17.0 pg/L since it discharges to a trout stream.

Return # 2230
In accordance with the Division of Water Quality policy, we must hereby return the attached
Engineering Alternative Analysis (and check # 1067 for $715.00) received on June 9, 2005. After a
preliminary review by the NPDES staff, the Division has determined that the EAA package lacks the
following items:
Complete evaluation of discharge alternatives. The Division requires applicants for new and
expanding discharge permits to fully document all alternatives to surface water discharge (15A NCAC
2HO105 (c)(2)). Each discharge alternative should be thoroughly evaluated and each conclusion
should be substantiated by appropriate documents and itemized budgets. Please evaluate the
feasibility of following alternatives: drip irrigation, spray irrigation, and wastewater reuse. Please
follow the EAA guidance and fulfill all listed requirements when evaluating alternatives (the EAA
guidance is enclosed).
Connection to a Sewer Collection System. The EAA indicates that the Town of Crossnore WWTP
will not accept wastewater from the proposed RV Park Please provide documentation to support this
claim.
Direct Discharge to Surface Waters. Please make sure that your evaluation of the direct discharge
alternative follows recommendation of the EAA Guidance: "All direct discharge systems of oxygen -
consuming wastes should be evaluated both with tertiary filtration [BOD5 = 5 mg/L, NH3-N= 2
mg/L, total residual chlorine =17 µg/L] and without, and assuming a weekly sampling regime".
If you have any questions about the NPDES permit process, contact me at the address or telephone
