AIR OIfilia" R
"HYDRO-CEAL"TM
General
:e the development of the activated sludge process in the
vdrly 1900's, several types of diffused air devices have been
designed and developed to introduce air into liquids. These
devices have ranged from individual holes and slots drilled into
---ctions of pipe to more elaborate devices made of small
�ticles fused together. Today, although the same types of
generic devices exist, diffusers are commonly classified as fine
or coarse bubble.
The demarcation between fine and coarse bubbles is not well
differentiated. Coarse bubble diffusers will typically produce a
bubble diameter of 10 to 20 mm in clean water. Fine bubble
diffusers will produce bubbles with a diameter of 2 to 4 mm in
clean water.
The HYDRO -AEROBICS model HYDRO-CEAL AIR DIFFUSER
is a result of years of extensive research and development to
produce a coarse bubble diffuser with excellent oxygen
transfer cleanout. The HYDRO-CEAL air duffuser has two
functions, mixing and oxygen transfer. The mixing function
allows tremendous surface contact of the liquid being aerated.
The oxygen transfer occurs from the contact of the liquid being
aerated. The oxygen transfer occurs from the contact of the
large and small bubbles released in the liquid. With our
unique design, a double shear of air is being released. The air
is sheared as it discharges the air orifice of the air diffuser
body and again as it crosses over the diaphram baffle. If it is
not sheared at this point, it will then shear along the diaphram
e. Several diffusers have been developed using this
Aciple but none have been designed and manufactured with
the diaphram built as an integral part of the disk body. The
HYDRO-CEAL air diffuser will not blow off because it is
—olded directly onto the diffuser disk body ... a unique feature
he industry!
EQUIPMENT SPECIFICATIONS
Principle
The HYDRO-CEAL air diffuser consists of two simple parts,
the diffuser body assembly and the flexible check diaphram.
Both parts are molded together so no separation can occur.
During aeration, the diaphram rises allowing the air to exit
through the orifice of the disk body. When the air stops, the
diaphram is instantly seated against the diffuser body by the
pressure of the liquid, preventing backflow and clogging. The
unique formation of the air check diaphram will allow double
shear of the discharged air from the air orifice, along with
assisting in reducing the requirements of maintaining each
diffuser level for proper air distribution.

The URD Series Discharge Silencer is a heavy-duty, all
welded unit constructed of carbon steel sheet and plate.
It provides pulse control and silencing adequate for most
sub -critical PLV applications. Sizes 4" and larger are
equipped with flanged connections drilled to 125/150 lb.
ANSI specifications. Smaller sizes are standard with male
threaded pipe nipples. Exterior surfaces receive a shop
coat of rust inhibitive primer and may be finish painted
in the field if desired. The URD Series is the basic end
inlet/end outlet configuration. A low side inlet version is
designated the URDY Series; high side inlet, URDH
Series; and low opposed connections, URDS Series. The
four types are fundamentally alike and the performance
is identical. (Sizes 6" and smaller areURBSeries rather
than URD.) Mounting brackets and other options are avai-
lable - see page 11.

Universal CCS Series is a combination filter/silencer with a
heavy-duty type construction, shrouded for weather protec-
tion and finlsheC with a high quality black paint. Sizes 5", 6"
and 8" have flanged connections drilled to 125;: ANSI stand-
ards — the otner sizes have female NPT type connections.
The weathernood is removable for access to the filter ele-
ment. The replaceable dry pleated paper element is 99.5%
efficient on 2 microns — 97916 on 1 micron particle size. The
element may be cleaned and reused a number of times. Re-
placement elements are available. (Galvanized wire mesh
elements are also available for replacement — contact
factory.)
Normally the CCS provides adequate noise attenuation,
however if additional silencing is necessary, this filter may
be used in series with an inlet silencer.

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
A pressure relief valvess primary purpose is to act as a safety valve to protect the positive
displacement air blower, working in conjunction with the air manifold. When the air
manifold pressure exceeds the pre-set pressure of the valve, the valve will open and vent
the excess air pressure.
The Simon Hydro -Aerobics, Inc. Pressure Relief Valve is a spring loaded type that is
available in six (6) sizes, ranging from 1' diameter pipe size to 4" diameter pipe size.
These valves are pre -sat at the factory for a working pressure of 5 PSI. Easy adjustment
of the valve can be made to increase the pressure depending on the actual pressure
candition of the air manifold. The pressure range of these valves is from 0 to 10 PSI.

sible ON time.

FLOW MEASUREMENT
To provide for measurement of the sewage flow there shall be
supplied a Leupold & Stevens Model 61R catalog No. 17621
float activated flow meter to be installed as shown,on the plans.
The meter shall indicate, record and totalize volume of flow
passing through a 90 degree "V" notch measuring weir located
as shown on the plans. The flow meter shall convert water level
measurement over a "V" notch weir to flow data for continuous
indication.and shall graphically record the data on a strip chart
with a time scale of 60 days. In the chamber directly below
the flow meter there shall be installed a proper size stilling
well for the.purpose of dampening out surface undulations and
wave action. The float size, flow gears and flow cam shall be
sized for the specific flow range to provide maximum accuracy of
the recorded flow. The chart shall be driven by a 11S VAC
synchronous motor and the complete unit shall be mounted in a
weatherproof enclosure which shall be mounted as shown on the

system is put into operation by the factory service
representative who starts up the entire sewage system.

STEVENS Model 61 Total Flow Meter
Lightweight, portable for easy surface above a reference point. The TFM uses a
float to detect this height and converts it into a
installation, servicing, and relocation
reading of instantaneous flow.
Interchangeable flow cams and
gears for greater accuracy and easy
in -field changes
Seven -digit totalizer for continuous
volume indication
Choice of AC synchronous motor
drive or Quartz Multispeed Timer
The Stevens Model 61 Total Flow Meter (TFM) is
designed for on -site measuring of open channel
flows. Instruments can be furnished to record and
totalize in either English or metric units, and can
be used with virtually any type and size of weir or
flume. A full-scale measuring range may run from
as low as 14,000 gallons per day (GPD) through a
22-1/20 V notch weir to as much as several hundred
million gallons, per day (MGD) through large sizes
pf Parshali and other types of flumes.
The volume of liquid flowing through a primary
measuring device is a function of the height of the
Stevens' Reputation for Quality
The Model 61 Total Flow Meter represents
Stevens' continuing effort to provide a high -quality
Product which meets customer needs at a cost-
effective price.
Convenience
The TFM converts water level measurement to
flow data for continuous indication (61M) or graph-
ic record (61R), and uses a mechanical totalizer for
continually indicated volume. The unit is housed
in a compact case for portability, and comes
equipped with a.bracket for shelf or table mount-
ing. The seven -digit totalizer and chart drives are
powered by AC synchronous motors or, if pre-
ferred, by a battery -driven Quartz Multispeed Timer.
Flexibility
A major feature of these instruments is the ability
to convert them for other flow ranges by an easy
in -field change of flow cam and flow gears. For in-
filtration studies and similar applications the
operator may use the meter on a V-notch weir in
the morning, a Parshall flume in the afternoon, and
something else later in the week. These portable
meters are compact, lightweight, and simple to in-
stall, service, maintain, or relocate.

Technical C
STEVENS Total Flow Meters - ME
Stevens Total Flow Meters are designed for use
with specific types and sizes of flumes and weirs.
This is a partial list of some of the more common
devices and flow ranges accommodated. In addi-
tion to those listed, instruments can be supplied
for use with various other open -channel primaries
such as larger sized Parshall, Palmer-Bowlus,
Leopold-Lagco, and type H flumes; various sizes of
rectangular and Cipolletti weirs; proportional or
Sutro weirs, flow nozzles, etc. We can also provide
instruments to conform to customer -obtained
ratings of large diameter sewers, stream sections,
and other natural channels. Flows are shown in
units of million gallons per day (MGD). Other
English units such as gallons per minute (GPM), as
well as metric units, can also be provided.
The floats in the "Recommended Float
Diameter' column are the standard cylindrical type
used in stilling well installations. Scow type floats
are often used with Parshall, Palmer-Bowlus, and
Leopold-Lagco flumes when a stilling well is not
available. Stevens offers several sizes of scow
floats.
When requesting a quotation or placing an
order, please show:
1. Instrument Catalog Number. (if unable to locate
an appropriate catalog number, call or write for

NOTE: This tabulation of Instrument Catalog Numbers is not meant to be complete. Instruments can be furnished for
other types and different sizes of open channel primaries. Different maximum flow ranges can usually be provided.
_ If unable to locate an appropriate Catalog Number, write or call for information advising type and size of weir, flume,
nozzle, etc. and expected maximum flow.

The Model 61M provides a visual indication only.
The indicator plate is graduated to show instantan-
eous flow rate as noted by the indicator pointer. A
red clip on the indicator plate is positioned to in-
dicate peak flow. The Model 61R uses a strip chart
to provide a permanent record of flow. Both the
61M and 61R have a seven -digit totalizer for in-
dicating total volume.
Long Service Life
As with all Stevens products, the Total Flow
Meter was designed to assure low maintenance and
long life. All bearings are lifetime lubricated. The
instrument case is made of high -impact ASS
plastic with stainless -steel hardware, and has a
viewing port.
Model 61R Recorder Chart
A standard 50-foot by 4-inch strip chart is printed
on tracing quality paper which has been specially
selected to minimize the effects of humidity. Curvi-
linear graduations compensate for the cartridge
pen's arc swing. There are six minor time divisions
between major divisions.
Charts are overprinted every 2, 3, or 6 hours,
depending on the time scale. The chart has uni-
form divisions for flow, and consists of seven ma-
jor and five minor divisions.
Available times scales are 5, 10, or 20 inches of
chart travel per day, which yields 120, 60, or 30
days, respectively, of continuous records. For many
applications, a scale of 10 inches per day is
satisfactory to provide a clear, easily read record. If
the flows fluctuate rapidly, a scale of 20 inches per
day is recommended. Scales may be changed easi-
ly in the field by interchanging gears. If the op-
tional Quartz Multispeed Timer is used, time
scales are changed by switch selection.
Strip charts can be filed in continuous form or
cut into a convenient size for ease in filing. Strip
charts provide an advantage over circular charts
because they can be used to verify information
provided by the totalizer. Since "Rate x Time =
Total Volume," it is easy to count the squares
in the recorded section, or to use a planimeter
to determine total volume and cross-check the
totalizer figure.
Model 61R Cartridge Pen
The chart pen is a disposable cartridge type with
a typical life of 3 months. Replacement frequency
depends upon the chart speed of the recorder and
the characteristics of the flow being recorded.
Recommended Float Size
.The diameter of the recommended float will vary
- between 6 inches and 14 inches, depending on the
selected flow range of the instrument, and type of
flume or weir. Recommended sizes are listed in
Technical Data Sheet 100.
It is important to consider the recommended
float size because its size will determine the
available input torque to the instrument per unit of
head change in the weir or flume.
Accessories
Accessories include a Stevens Sampling Switch,
Chlorinator Pacing Potentiometer, Adjustable Mer-
cury Switch, Heater, and a 4-20 mA Telemetry Kit.
The Sampling Switch provides a contact closure
at preselected intervals of metered volume. Uses
for the Sampling Switch include totalizing volume
on a remote indicator, flow sampling, and dosage
control. Sampling rates may be varied by changing
cams; cams are available with 10, 20, or 25 lobes.
Refer to Technical Data Sheet 100 for actual sampl-
ing intervals.
The Chlorinator Pacing Potentiometer consists of
a simple potentiometer which is gear driven by the
rotation of the pointer plate. The potentiometer
usually forms one half of a bridge circuit which
controls the rate at which additives are entered in-
to a system. It can also be used for retransmitting
or other control applications.
The Adjustable Mercury Switch provides a con-
tact closure at a preselected flow. A typical ap-
plication might be to turn on a chlorinator when
the flow exceeds 5% of the maximum flow or to
turn on a pump when the flow reaches 50% of
maximum flow. The switch remains closed for
flows above the preselected flow. A small differen-
tial angle allows fine positioning of the switch
actuation point.
A Heater is available for special installations
where low temperatures may. affect operation of
the instrument or accessories, or where extreme
conditions of dampness exist.
The 4.20 mA Telemetry Kit will operate with a
variety of commercially available receivers for
recording, display, or alarm functions.

SURFACE COATING
All vessel surfaces to be painted shall be properly prepared
in a manner so as to obtain a smooth, clean dry surface. All
rust, dust and loose mill scale as well as all other extraneous
matter shall be removed by means of cleaning by wire brushing 'or
other mechanical means. Immediately following cleaning, a heavy
inert coal tar coating shall be applied to all tank surfaces
prior to shipment. This coating shall be a self -priming heavy
duty, solvent type protective coating formulated for abrasion and
corrosion resistance and shall have a dry mil thickness of
approximately 12 mils.
For touch-up of scratches and field weld seams that may
occur during installation twenty gallons of the same paint product
shall be supplied by the manufacturer. It shall be the
responsibility of the installing contractor to touch-up -any
surfaces needing repair from shipment or installation.
WORKMANSHIP
All workmanship and materials throughout shall be of the
highest quality and the treatment plant described in the preced-
ing specifications shall be complete with all appurtenances
required for the satisfactory treatment of the specified sewage
load.

Protective Coatings
COAL. -TAR COATINGS
TYPE OF COATING
COAL -TAR
Take bituminous coal, a very complex chemical mixture, and run it through several
involved processes, and you will end up with, among other things, coal -tar pitches. Coal -tar
coatings are made by dissolving the refined, processed pitch or a blend of pitches in suitable
solvents. The source of the coal -tar and the method of processing will provide pitches of
different characteristics. Skill and experience are essential in compounding coal -tar coatings,
because similar physical characteristics of raw materials do not necessarily mean similar behavior
of the finished product under exposure. The raw materials selected for the blending, the degree
of refining and the addition of other modifiers, often in very small quantities, decide the final
merit of the coating.
Coal -tar coatings are among the oldest and most reliable coatings on the market. There is
not much question that they give more value per dollar than any other protective coating. The
most outstanding quality of coal -tar coatings is their extremely low permeability; they protect
surfaces by the mechanical exclusion of moisture and air. In this respect, they have an edge
over asphalt coatings, and should be given preference wherever possible. Extremely water
resistant, they have good resistance to weak mineral acids, alkalies, salts, brine solutions and
other aggressive chemicals. Coal -tar based solvent -cutback coatings will alligator or develop
cracks when exposed to the actinic rays of the sun. To preclude alligatoring, coal -tar cutbacks
can be topcoated with coal -tar emulsions for sun exposure environments. Coal -tar coatings have
given excellent low-cost protection in industrial plants, in sewage disposal plants, on piers and
flood control installations, penstocks and on the interior and exterior of concrete pipes carrying
sewage and industrial waste.

Authorization to Construct
NPDES Permit #NC0079561
Town of Elk Park
Avery County
Enclosed are the drawing specifying a flow meter and revised calculations for the pump
station. Regarding the issue of the equalization basin, I was wondering if you would
consider approving the design without the basin at this time, but require them to provide a
diurnal flow curve once their allocated flow reaches 80% of maximum. We could then
better determine if it was necessary to provide adequate treatment. This would be a
requirement of the ATC approval letter.

01 DIFFUSER
Many basic configurations can be designed with DAVCO
D1 Diffusers. These can be custom engineered to meet
your design concept and job requirements. Narrow or wide
band aeration can,be achieved by using a fixed -in -place,
submerged header, or removable drop pipe concept
incorporating the D1 Diffuser. Where .channel aeration or
post aeration is required, the D1 Diffuser offers the
design engineer maximum flexibility to arrive at a most -
economical, efficient system. D1 Diffuser leaf springs are
fabricated of type 304 stainless steel no lighter than .020
inches thick and are fastened to the body by welding.
DAVCO welcomes the opportunity to supply D1 Diffusers
to meet your requirements. Call our representative in your
area today or contact us at 1-800-841-1550.
Corrosion -free construction
is obtained by all -metal
diffuser bodies made of type
304 stainless steel. All
seams are heliarc-welded to
insure an air -tight enclosure.

IMPELLERS are machined from cast iron to an exact
profile and are permanently fastened to steel shafts.
They are dynamically balanced to operate without
vibration in any assembled position.
Q2 HEADPLATES, machined from cast iron. are ground on
the interior surface to precise operating tolerances.
Bearing fits are machined into headplates to assure
exact bearing positioning.
Q3 IMPELLER CASES, machined from cast iron, are heavily
ribbed to prevent distortion. Inlet and discharge ports
are integral features of the cylinder.
® ANTI -FRICTION BEARINGS are used exclusively. Smaller
sizes are fitted with sinale-row ball bearings: larger sizes
have double -row ball bearings and spherical roller'
bearings for overhung load capacity.
J TIMING GEARS, cut from alloy steel. are bolted to timing
hubs. On smaller size units. gears are mounted directly
on shafts.
no
LUBRICATION. Timing gears and gear -end bearings are
splash oil lubricated from an oil -tight housing enclosing
the timing gears. Drive —end bearings are grease lubricated
through fittings. Lip type seals prevent oil and grease
from entering the impeller chamber
:✓ DRIVE SHAFT is extended for V-belt drive or direct
connection. A thrust control is standard on all units.
Vertical or horizontal shaft arrangement is available on
all units.
8i FLEX -MOUNT DESIGN, unique to the California
Legend series. is adaptable to either vertical or hori-
zontal installation for increased versatility. The feet are
precisely machined to match the footprint of the popu-
lar California "Series F" blower and that of many
competitive units. Hence, the performance and de- °%�J
sign features of SUTORBILT California Legend rotary
positive displacement blowers and vacuum pumps
make them the quality choice as replacements for
competitive units.

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
A pressure relief valves primary purpose is to act as a safety valve to protect the positive
displacement air blower, working in conjunction with the air manifold. When the 'air
manifold pressure exceeds the pre-set pressure of the valve, the valve will open and vent
the excess air pressure.
The Simon Hydro -Aerobics, Inc. Pressure Relief Valve is a spring loaded type that is
available in six (6) sizes, ranging from 1' diameter pipe size to 4' diameter pipe size.
These valves are pre-set at the factory for a working pressure of 5 PSI. Easy adjustment
of the valve can be made to increase the pressure depending on the actual pressure
condition of the air manifold. The pressure range of these valves is from 0 to 10 PSI.

Universal CCS Series is a combination filter/silencer with'a
heavy-duty type construction. shrouded for weather protec-
tion and finished with a high quality black paint. Sizes 5". 6"
and 8" have flanged connections drilled to 125;: ANSI stand-
ards — the other sizes have female NPT type connections.
/ The weatherhood is removable for access to the filter ele-
ment. The replaceable dry pleated paper element is 99.5%
efficient on 2 microns — 97% on 1 micron particle size. The'
element may be cleaned and reused a number of times. Re-
placement elements are available. (Galvanized wire mesa
elements are also available for replacement — contact
factory.)
Normally the CCS provides adequate noise attenuation.
however if additional silencinc is necessary. this filter may
be used in series with an inlet silencer.

transformer for operation on 440
volt, 60 Hz.
OPERATION: The 1015 Series Multi-
ple Time Switch shall be installed
in the central control system of
the wastewater treatment system to
program the operation of the blower
motor and froth control pump motor.
The Timer Switch shall be programm-
ed to operate these motors when re-
quired and as determined by the var-
iation in the daily flow rate.
The Timer Switch can be programmed
to have 1 to 48 operations per day
in 15 minute multiples. (It is re-
commended that a minimum of one op-
eration per hour even during low
flow periods be taken.) Each dial/
pin represents 15 minutes of pos-
sible ON time.

� INLAND 4-WAY SAFETY PLATE
— This tough, rolled steel floor plate with its raised lug
pattern provides plenty of traction for feet and wheels
�- —enables men and vehicles to start and stop quickly
and safely. The attractive design, formed by lugs at
right angles to each other and diagonal to the length
and width of plate, permits free drainage since there
rs are no pockets in which dirt and grease can collect and
no pores to absorb spilled liquids.
4-Way safety plate is low in cost, inexpensive to
— install and is available in a wide range of sizes in three
patterns as shown in the tables below. The small
pattern is ideal for applications requiring weight reduc-
tion or severe forming, covers more square feet per
dollar of cost than any other rolled steel floor plate.
The medium pattern is the most versatile of all
patterns and is widely used in plant or on product -
The large pattern is recommended for floors that must
withstand heavy loads and abuse, where unusual
structural strength is needed.
4-Way can be sheared, punched, cut and bent to
— ] specific lion with conventional fabricating equipment.

Design Specifications
The pressure rating designation of KITZ valves follows the
accepted practice of the valve and pipe fitting industry
today. Each product is rated for W.O.G. (Non -shock cold
water,) oil, and gas) and W.S.P. (working saturated steam
press re) service. Pressure rating of iron valves are shown
on page 5.

KITZ valves are manufactured under strict quality control
throughout all stages of production, beginning with inspec-
tion of chemical composition and mechanical properties of
materials. Extra care is given to inspection and testing at all
machine shops and assembly plants, utilizing up-to-date
BRONZE and BRASS
KITZ Bronze Cast composition is an alloy of copper, tin,
lead and zinc which meets ASTM B62 (common trade
name is 85-5-5-5), B61 and ASTM B584 C84400 (commer-
cial designation is valve composition 81-3-7-9). KITZ Brass
materials meet ASTIIA B283 C37700.

KITZ. "K Metal" Dezincification Resistant Material r �` `t+FMOM a w^i �,:......Sd"C z•+� x:._ s5��"kL^ca"+�as-5+errii-,%�
Deterioration of water quality and changes in piping materials have amplified valve dezincification problems.
What is Dezincification?
The copper alloy used in bronze valves contains zinc, tin,
and lead with copper as a base. When bronze valves are
subjected to unfavorable operating conditions the zinc
component contained in the copper alloy separates from
the copper base, and the metal corrodes. This is called
dezincification.
In a bronze valve, the body, bonnet, and other bronze cast
parts hardly corrode at all due to the small percent of zinc
in the alloy. But brass parts with a 40% zinc content (stems
in particular) are subject to extreme dezincification.

Why Does Dezincification Occur?
The following factors cause dezincification. These factors
are generally believed to occur together, rather than
independently.
1) Aqueous solutions high in acidity.
2) Warm water with a high free carbonic acid content and
What is K-Metal?
To combat dezincification KITZ developed "K-Metal," used
in the stems of all KITZ brass valves and any other valves
not using Bronze Alloy B62. The charts below compare
K-Metal with B124, B16, B62, and a competitor's
dezincification material. Compared are tensile strength,
corrosion quantity, hardness, and dezincification. The
comparisons clearly show K-Metal's overall superiority and
explain why KITZ valves provide superior performance and
give longer life.

BRONZE/BRASS VALVE SOLDER JOINTS
Copper tubing is widely used with Bronze/Brass valves in
steam and water -line applications in schools, hospitals,
hotels, and homes because of excellent physical character-
istics.
It resists corrosion, meets sanitation requirements, and is
easy to install.
COPPER TUBES: There are three types of copper tubing
for complying with ASTM B88, Types K, L, and M are avail-
able.
Each has a different wall thickness to meet application
requirements.
TYPES OF COPPER TUBING
Type K ror use in Bream, ou ano gas nnes tor unaergrouna instauation
and/or severe conditions.
Type L . For general cooling and heating systems and related water .
piping and ventilation systems.
Type M I For home air-conditioning and heating applications.

high electrical conductivity.
3) High electrical conductivity with large quantities of
chlorides and sulfides present.
4) With copper or vinyl chloride pipes.
5) With a large quantity of dissolved oxygen.
Figures 1 through 4 compare "K-Metal" with other
materials. Material manufactured by a competitor is a
dezincification-resistant material.
(Corrosion quantity and dezincification depth are values recorded after
two weeks.)
(NOTE) The dezincification test was made based on the Australian
Standard AS C316.

MAKING LEAK -FREE JOINTS
Use soft solder having
a 95-5 tin -lead rating,
95-5 tin -antimony or
96-4 tin -silver and an
open -flame torch.
Keep torch tempera-
ture relatively low to
assure a soldered
joint. Because the sol-
der melting point
ranges between 360°F
and 570°F, a solder
joint valve cannot be
used in applications
where high tempera-
tures will soften the
solder.

Many basic configurations can be designed with DAVCO
D1 Diffusers. These can be custom engineered to meet
your design concept and job requirements. Narrow or wide
band aeration can be achieved by using a fixed -in -place,
submerged header, or removable drop pipe concept
incorporating the D1 Diffuser. Where channel aeration or
post aeration is required, the D1 Diffuser offers the
design engineer maximum flexibility to arrive at a most
economical, efficient system. D1 Diffuser leaf springs are
fabricated of type 304 stainless steel no lighter than .020
inches thick and are fastened to the body by welding.
DAVCO welcomes the opportunity to supply D1 Diffusers
to meet your requirements. Call our representative in your
area today or contact us at 1-800-841-1550.
Corrosion -free construction
is obtained by all -metal
diffuser bodies made of type
304 stainless steel. All
seams are heliarc-welded to
insure an air -tight enclosure.
W
A simple threaded
connection allows
easy installation
resulting in low
labor cost.
The leaf spring is welded
in two places to increase
reliability and give double
action oscillation. The
spring deflects only slightly
but oscillates at a high
frequency shearing the air
as it exits. This provides
small bubble size and
efficient aeration.

and motors, central electric control panel, all internal piping and valves
and all on plant conduit and wiring.
All work on the tanks and clari 1/a fier including welding, on plant wiring,
interior piping, installation of equipment and internal and external
painting, shall be completed prior to shipment from the factory. Field
installation shall entail placing and anchoring each unit, attaching
handrails, making external piping and electrical connections, painting of
scuffed areas and setting the blowers motor assembly and control panel
06710.5 COMPONENT CONSTRUCTION
A removable inlet bar screen shall be mounted at the discharge point of theraw.
wastewater influent pipe. This bar screen shall be accessible from thewalkway for
cleaning purposes and shall have openings one inch wide.
The tanks shall be of a rectangular configuration. The tanks shall be
constructed of structural grade steel plate with interior reinforcing
designed to promote rapid mixing of the liquid and efficient air dispersion.
All interior reinforcing shall be so designed as to inhibit solids deposition
and short circuiting of the liquid flow. The longitudinal walls of the
rectangular tanks shall have header sections as an integral part of the tank.
One header will be used to distribute air for the system and the other header

shall be used for waste and/or return sludge. Gate valves will be located at
the appropriate points to vary the amount of waste and/or return sludge.
The clarifier shall be circular in shape and shall be fabricated in no more
than two sections utilizing standard structural plate and shapes. The
fabrication of the two sections shall require no more than sixty (60) lineal
feet of field welding. The.clarifier shall be blasted, primed and finish
painted at the factory with the exception of a three inch strip of metal on
either side of the field weld seam which shall have the finish coat applied
in the field.
Installation of the clarifier shall be in strict accordance with instructions
furnished by the manufacturer. Welding shall be are welding and shall be
done by an experienced welder qualified to do this type of work. The welds
shall be continuous and shall produce a watertight joint. Touch up and
application of the surface coating will be done immediately upon cooling.
The clarifier bottom shall be steel and shall have a factory installed sludge
sump and sludge return line. The bottom shall be given final form in the
field by placement of nonstructural concrete. The concrete shall be
furnished and installed by the contractor. The manufacturer shall provide
complete instructions as to the field assembly, coating and grout placement.
These instructions shall include coating application specifications, and a
step by step installation procedure.
The effluent weir trough and scum baffle shall be a polyester compound
reinforced with glass fibers. The weir trough and scum baffle shall be
adjustable over a minimum eight (8) inch vertical range with all adjustments
requiring only small hand tools. The complete weir trough assembly shall be
removable without having to dewater the clarifier.
The sludge collector mechanism shall be a center collection type to
facilitate the rapid return of sludge from the clarifier back to the aeration
system. The unit shall consist of all mechanical equipment required for
operation including complete drive unit, drive shaft, sludge scraper arms,
return sludge pipe and collection sump. The mechanism shall be centered with
the clarifier and supported by the bridge structure. The center shaft shall
extend to the bottom of the clarifier and pinned in such manner to prevent _f

$176.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into
account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 14313-
282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or
to private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the
attention of:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification
for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s)
occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty
assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative
hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative
hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please
prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In
determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be

considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b)
was wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from
the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.

This laboratory was inspected to verify its compliance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0800 for
the analysis of environmental samples.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
The inspection was an abbreviated audit to review the analyses performed in the field by the operators.
The parameters reviewed were pH, Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, and Total Residual Chlorine. The
facility has all of the equipment necessary to perform the analyses. The operator's benchsheets and
calibration logs are well developed; however some minor improvements need to be made. Significant
improvements in the reduction of transcription errors have been made since the previous inspection;
however further improvement is still needed.
FINDINGS, REQUIREMENTS, COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
PH — Standard Methods, 18t' Edition, 4500 H"' B
Temperature — Standard Methods, 18t' Edition, 2550 B
Dissolved Oxygen — Standard Methods, 18"' Edition, 4500 O G
Total Residual Chlorine — Standard Methods, 18t' Edition, 4500 CI G
Comment: The time of sample collection and analysis is not documented. Only the arrival time at the
facility is documented. According to 15A NCAC 2H .0805 (a) (7) (M), a record of date collected, time
collected, sample collector, and use of proper preservatives must be maintained. The memorandum
dated June 20, 2007 from North Carolina Wastewater/Groundwater Laboratory Certification (NC
WW/GW LC) titled 'Required Documentation' for Sampling Preservation' and Hold Time", states that the
time elapsed between sampling and analysis must be documented to determine if hold times are met.
Updated benchsheets were received on February 26, 2009 including the collection and analysis time. No
further response is necessary for this finding.
Total Residual Chlorine — Standard Methods, 18t' Edition, 4500 CI G
A. Finding: Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) Performance Testing (PT) samples are analyzed using
an incorrect meter program.

I
Page 2
#544 Water Quality Lab & Operations, Inc. -
Requirement: "The DMR-QA study is designed to evaluate the entire process you, use to
routinely report results in your Discharge Monitoring Reports." Ref: EPA DMR-QA Study 28 .
Letter, March 10, 2008.
Comment: Analyze'PT samples on the same program, using the same procedure that is used
for sample analysis. NPDES samples -are analyzed using the Ultra Low Level (pg/L) TRC
internal instrument standard curve; however, PT samples are analyzed using the Regular Level
(mg/L) TRC internal instrument curve.
Recommendation: Regular level PT samples may be diluted so that concentrations are within
the verified (bracketed) curve range. Since the dilution process can introduce additional error, it
is recommended that the facility analyze a low level TRC PT sample. These are currently
available from many vendors.
DH — Standard Methods,18" Edition, 4500 H+ B
Comment: Proper units of measure are not documented on the benchsheets. Per 15A,NCAC 2H .0805
(a) (7) (H), all laboratories must use printed laboratory bench worksheets that include a space to enter the
signature or initials of the analyst, date of analyses, sample identification, volume of sample analyzed,
value from the measurement system, factor and final value to be reported and each item must be
recorded each time samples are analyzed. Updated benchsheets were received on February 26, 2009
which document proper units of measure for pH. No further response is necessary for this finding.
B. Finding: Post calibration checks are not consistently analyzed.
Requirement: If compliance samples are analyzed throughout the day, a post calibration check
(e.g., 7 buffer) must be analyzed mid -day and at the end of the run (i.e., roughly every 4 hours
based on an eight hour day). Ref: Technical Assistance for Field Analysis of pH, Rev. 02/2009,
IV. PAPER TRAIL INVESTIGATION:
The paper trail consisted of comparing laboratory bench sheets to Discharge Monitoring Reports
(DMRs) submitted to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality. Data were reviewed for the following
facilities and months: White Oak (NPDES #NC0030139), Jonas Ridge (NPDES #NC0060224),
Mountain Glen (NPDES #NC0033685), and Adam's Apple HOA (NPDES #NC0042358) September,
2008; Fairhaven (NPDES 4NC0079448) May, 2008; Tynecastle (NPDES #NC0062961) February and
July; 2008; Town of Newland (NPDES #NC0021857) July 2008; Linville Ridge (NPDES #NC0062413)
July and September, 2008. The following errors were noted:

In order to avoid questions of legality, it, is recommended that you contact the appropriate Regional
Office for guidance as to whether an amended Discharge Monitoring Report will be required. A copy of
this report will be forwarded to the Regional Office.

Page 3
#544 Water Quality Lab & Operations, Inc.
C. Finding: Numerous instances of sample analyses being performed but not reported -on the DMRs
were noted.
Requirement: The results of all tests on the characteristics of the effluent, including but not
limited to NPDES permit monitoring requirements, shall be reported on the monthly report
forms. Ref: 15A NCAC 2B .0506 (b) (3) (J).
Comment: In order to continue process control monitoring without reporting the data on the
DMR, samples must be collected prior to the final effluent discharge. Altematively, if the
analysts continue collecting the samples from the'effluent, the results must be reported on the
DMR.
D. 'Finding: Camp Broadstone - The analysis of a calibration check for Total Residual Chlorine is not
analyzed/documented consistently.
Requirement: When a five standard annual curve verification is used the laboratory must check
the calibration curve each analysis day. To do this, the laboratory must analyze a blank to zero
the instrument and analyze a check standard each day that samples are analyzed. The time of
analysis and value obtained for the calibration check must be documented. Ref: Technical
Assistance for Field Analysis of Total Residual Chlorine, Rev. 0812008.
Comment: The calibration check is documented on days when the pH and Dissolved Oxygen
meters are calibrated; however it is not documented when TRC is the only parameter analyzed.
E. Finding: Linville Ridge - The time of meter calibration is occasionally documented as later than
the arrival and departure time at the facility.
Requirement: The meter must be calibrated prior to the analysis of samples. Ref: Technical
Assistance for Field Analysis of pH, Rev. 02/2009; Technical Assistance for Field Analysis of
Dissolved Oxygen, Rev. 07/2008.
Requirement: Instruments are to be calibrated or a calibration check must be performed prior to
analysis of samples each day compliance monitoring is performed. Ref: Technical Assistance for
Field Analysis of Total Residual Chlorine, Rev. 08/2008.
V. CONCLUSIONS:
Correcting the above -cited findings and implementing the recommendations will help this lab to
produce quality data and meet certification requirements. The inspector would like to thank the staff for
its assistance during the inspection and data review process. Please respond to all findings.

Annual Wastewater Treatment Plant Report
Town of Elk Park
NPDES M NCO079561
Date: 2/ 13/09
We are pleased to present to you this year's Annual Wastewater Treatment Plant Report.
This report is designed to inform you about the quality of the wastewater we discharge to
the receiving waters every day. Our constant goal is to protect the environmental waters
of North Carolina. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually
improve the wastewater treatment process and protect our water resources. We are
committed to ensuring the quality of the receiving waters that we discharge to.
If you have any questions about this report or concerning your wastewater utility, please
contact Otis Ward at [phone]. We want our valued customers to be informed
about their wastewater utility.
Let us first take this opportunity to give you a brief description of a Wastewater
Treatment Plant. The waters that go down the drain, follow many different pipes, and
ends up at the treatment plant. The wastewater goes through a bar screen that stops large
particles that are present (i.e., rags and papers). The water then goes to an aeration basin
where air is pumped into the water. This air supplies oxygen to bacteria that feed on the
solids that are in the water. The water then goes. to the clarifier where the solids settle out.
The solids are pumped back to the aeration basin to give the bacteria a second chance to
feed. When there are too many solids in the plant-, some of the solids are pumped to a
digester tank. In the digester, the bacteria have more time to feed on and reduce the
solids' volume. When the digester gets full, the solids are pumped from the tank and
taken to a larger facility. The clear water from the clarifier then goes to a tank for
disinfection. The two most prominent ways to disinfect the wastewater are chlorine and
ultraviolet light. Chlorine can be used as a gas or in solid tablet form. When chlorine is
used, there is generally a dechlorinating agent use to remove any excess chlorine from the
wastewater before it goes to the receiving water. When ultraviolet light (UV) is used, the
wastewater flows around the UV bulbs. Bacteria can not live when exposed to UV light,
so as the water passes the UV bulbs, the water in disinfected. Finally, after disinfection,
the treated wastewater goes into the receiving waters.

PERFORMANCE
The treatment plant did very well last year. For the whole year, the plant was non-
compliant for only two weekly limits for fecal coliform, one in November and one in
December.
The chlorine was adjusted, and the plant was back in compliance by the very next
samples.
The plant also had one weekly non-compliance for total suspended solids in May.
The treatment plant had two monthly non -compliances for ammonia nitrogen in April and
May.
NOTIFICATION
This annual report has been sent to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality and to
the owner of the wastewater system. The wastewater system owner has also been given a
letter that they can easily distribute to all their customers. The letter will inform the
customers that the annual report is available upon request to the owner of the system.
CERTIFICATION
I certify under penalty of law that this report is complete and accurate to the best of my
--knowledge. I further certify that this report has been made available to the users or
customers of the named system and that those users have been notified of its availability
as per the NOTIFICATION section above.

Dear Ms. Hicks:
Attached is the report resulting from the Town of Elk Park Wastewater Treatment
Plant Compliance Evaluation Inspection that I conducted on June 5, 2008. The facility
was producing a very clear effluent and is being well operated and maintained.
A couple of years have passed since the diffusers were last pulled and cleaned.
The aeration basin contents could show a little more turbulence during the aeration cycle.
I asked Otis to pull and clean the diffusers in the near future. Please let me know when
this is completed.
A review of our files indicates that Otis Ward has not been designated as Operator
in Responsible Charge. Please submit the attached designation form to Steve Reid at the
indicated address.
Thank you for your attention to these matters. We look forward to hearing from you.
If you wish to discuss this report, please do not hesitate to call me at 828-296-4659.

Annual Wastewater Treatment Plant Report
Town of Elk Park
NPDES M NC0079561
Date: 2/13/08
We are pleased to present to you this year's Annual Wastewater Treatment Plant Report.
This report is designed to inform you about the quality of the wastewater we discharge to
the receiving waters every day. Our constant goal is to protect the environmental waters
of North Carolina. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually
improve the wastewater treatment process and protect our water resources. We are
committed to ensuring the quality of the receiving waters that we discharge to.
If you have any questions about this report or concerning your wastewater utility, please
contact Otis Ward at [phone]. We want our valued customers to be informed
about their wastewater utility.
Let us first take this opportunity to give you a brief description of a Wastewater
Treatment Plant. The waters that go down the drain, follow many different pipes, and
ends up at the treatment plant. The wastewater goes through a bar screen that stops large
particles that are present (i.e., rags and papers). The water then goes to an aeration basin
where air is pumped into the water. This air supplies oxygen to bacteria that feed on the
solids that are in the water. The water then goes to the clarifier where the solids settle out.
The solids are pumped back to the aeration basin to give the bacteria a second chance to
feed. When there are too many solids in the plant, some of the solids are pumped to a
digester tank. In the digester, the bacteria have more time to feed on and reduce the
solids' volume. When the digester gets full, the solids are pumped from the tank and
taken to a larger facility. The clear water from the clarifier then goes to a tank for
disinfection. The two most prominent ways to disinfect the wastewater are chlorine and
ultraviolet light. Chlorine can be used as a gas or in solid tablet form. When chlorine is
used, there is generally a dechlorinating agent use to remove any excess chlorine from the
wastewater before it goes to the receiving water. When ultraviolet light (UV) is used, the
wastewater flows around the UV bulbs. Bacteria can not live when exposed to UV light,
so as the water passes the UV bulbs, the water in disinfected. Finally, after disinfection,
the treated wastewater goes into the receiving waters.

PERFORMANCE
The treatment plant did very well last year. For the whole year, the plant was non-
compliant for only two weekly limits for fecal coliform, one in July and one in
November.
The chlorine was adjusted, and the plant was back in compliance by the very next
samples.
NOTIFICATION
This annual report has been sent to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality and to
the owner of the wastewater system. The wastewater system owner has also been given a
letter that they can easily distribute to all their customers. The letter will inform the
customers that the annual report is available upon request to the owner of the system.
CERTIFICATION
I certify under penalty of law that this report is complete and accurate to the best of my
knowledge. I further certify that this report has been made available to the users or
customers of the named system and that those users have been notified of its availability
as per the NOTIFICATION section above.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Treatment Units / Process Control Testing / Effluent Data:
Permitted capacity: 100,000 gpd
The activated sludge aeration basin process control data was as follows:
Temperature = 21.9 degrees Celcius
pH = 7.03 units
Dissolved Oxygen = 1.3 mg/I
Tip: The ideal level for dissolved oxygen in the aeration basin is generally 1 to 3 mg/l.
Seasonal changes in temperature require the adjustment of the aeration timer to achieve
ideal dissolved oxygen levels.
Settleable Solids =625 ml/I = 62.5 %
Tip: Using the settleability test, the return sludge pumping rate is usually set so
that the flow rate is approximately equal to the percentage volumes occupied by the
settleable solids from the aeration basin after settling for 30 minutes in a settleometer.
For example, a settleability of 30% would generally indicate a recommended return sludge
pumping rate of 30%.
Having the percent settleable solids (i.e. 30%) the same as the percent return sludge
pumping rate (i.e. 30%), allows for the solids balance in the plant to be maintained.
If the plant cannot handle that return sludge pumping rate, then wasting is probably
recommended, unless the sludge is too young.
The effluent data was as follows:
Dissolved Oxygen = 3.48 mg/I

Dear Mr. Klimek:

MORGANTON, N
TEL: (828) 433
FAX: (828) 433
Thank you for your letter dated April 3, 2007 in regards to the above matter addressed to
Mayor Darlene Hicks of Elk Park, N.C. Mayor Hicks has asked me as Town Attorney to respond to
your letter.
I will confirm that Elk Park cannot accept wastewater from the proposed Cranberry Creek
Development in Avery County. The Town is currently already engaged in a retirement home project
which predates this request, which will mean the Town will not have sufficient excess capacity,
contrary to what the Discharge Monitoring Reports you cite indicate. The 60 bed facility in the
Cranberry Community, outside the town limits, is nearing completion. The Town was very hesitant to
take on this discharge, either, but Avery County management, inspections, and local economic
development departments prevailed upon the Town to do so. This project was already in process in
May, 2006 when this Cranberry Creek project first was brought before the Town Council.
The Town also has other issues which mean this project is not feasible at this time. The official
minutes of the Town Council meeting from May 9, 2006, indicate these issues were openly discussed
with the Cranberry Creek representatives in attendance, so none of this is news to them. In attendance
from this project were Roger Smithey, Derick Smithey, Neil Shepard, Phillip Gilissen, and James
Dorman. They were fully informed of the Town's concerns and your letter is the first we have heard
of this project since that meeting almost one year ago. The minutes reflect that the representatives
1 of 2 6/12/2007 2:32 PM

NCDtNR letter re Cranberry Creek
were informed that:
1. That they had not submitted any materials to the Town in advance of the meeting for the
materials to be reviewed by the Council or legal counsel. The representatives simply came
in with plans and specifications and asked the Town to agree to a connection, which no
Town would do under those circumstances;
2. That Jerry Freeman with NCDENR had recommended "time and time again" that the
Town needed to complete a study of the water and sewer systems before agreeing to
connect any additional homes to either system, and at that same meeting the Town actually
did hire an engineering firm to complete same. I think we are still awaiting this final study
of our sewer system;
3. The representatives stated they intended for Phase I to discharge 17,280 gallons per day to
Elk Park's system. Otis Ward, the Town's water and sewer supervisor, advised the group
this was not possible because the 100,000 gallon Town sewer plant was often at 70%
capacity including infiltration problems which are persistent and ongoing, and that the
State would not allow over 80% of capacity. The Town also has the aforementioned
retirement home coming online soon, and there are still homes inside the city limits which
have yet to be connected to the sewer plant;
4. The Board specifically told the representatives that the Board would have to receive the
aforementioned engineering report before making any decision on this development.
Please let me know if we can provide any additional information.
Very truly yours,
Douglas L. Hall

Dear Mayor Hicks:
The Division of Water Quality (Division) has recently reviewed the Engineering Alternative Analysis
(EAA) for Cranberry Creek Development in Avery County. According to the EAA submitted by the
developer's consultant, connection to the town of Elk Park WWTP is the most economically feasible
and environmentally sound alternative for handling the wastewater from the proposed development.
The Clean Water Act mandates the Division to work toward elimination of wastewater discharges to
surface waters. The connection of a potentially new source to the existing wastewater treatment plant
eliminates the need for a new discharge and promotes the Division's mission to preserve, protect, and
enhance North Carolina's water resources. Review of the Discharge Monitoring Reports for the town of
Elk Park WWTP indicates that the Town has the capacity to accept wastewater from Phase 1 of the
proposed development.
It appears that the town decided not to accept the waste from the proposed development, which is very
unusual for a municipality. Therefore, the Division would like to gather more information regarding
this issue from the - elected officials of the town of Elk Park and would greatly appreciate any
clarifications you can provide.
At minimum, the Division must have written correspondence from town officials stating that the Town
will not accept wastewater from the proposed development.
If you have any questions concerning this issue, please contact Sergei Chernikov at telephone number
[phone], extension 594.

$208.57 Enforcement Costs
$458.57 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
I
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 14313-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to
private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or; intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
- (8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. . Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be 'made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement
action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please, submit payment to the attention of:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality.
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for
such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below
as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting

remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy
of 'any of the factual statements -contained in 'the civil' penalty assessment document. Because a
remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a request must be
accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and agreement
that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes
why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at
the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following
factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was
wrongfully -applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the'
violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previousviolations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in
writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your evidence and inform
you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details regarding
the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the
Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee). Please
be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the original remission
request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of
Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty
(30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Quality also requests that you complete and
submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should be submitted to the
following address:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

ASSESSMENT FACTORS
As required by G.S. 143-214.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I considered the
factors set out in G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health,
or to private property resulting from the violation;
The facility's weekly geometric mean fecal coliform value exceeded the permit limitations by
191 % in December 2006.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
High concentrations of fecal coliform (6200 & 5300 colonies per 100 ml), which occurred on
December 27th & 28th were sufficiently high to cause the facility to violate the weekly geometric
mean limitation of 400 colonies per 100 ml
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
Damage to the receiving stream was not quantified.
4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
The cost of rectifying the damage is unknown.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
The amount of money saved by noncompliance is the cost of operational adjustments and / or
chemicals.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
The violation does not appear to be willful or intentional.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
During the period 12-01-2005 through 11-30-2006, the facility did not have any permit limit
violations, however there were 3 NOVs issued for monitoring frequency violations.
The facility was compliant during the most recent inspection performed on 6-2-2006.

Re: Laboratory Certification Maintenance Inspection
Town of Elk Park, North Carolina 28622
Dear Mr. Donnelly,.
I am pleased to submit the following written explanation, item by item in response
to the inspection report completed by Mr. Gary Francies on October 19, 2006.
II. "Documentation needs to be improved. Some quality control procedures need
to be implemented."
I have contacted Mr. Fred Summers with North Carolina Rural Water
Association for on site coaching on documentation and QC. New bench sheets
will be developed to document the calibration of field instruments. Our first
meeting was today, 12/18/06.
III.A. "Overall documentation needs to be improved."
Bench Sheets will be modified to include Chlorine Secondary Standards as well
as pH buffers that will bracket the normal reading range,+10 and I will check 7
for accuracy. Readings will be recorded, dated, and initialed by the Operator
Performing the test. Bench Sheets will be filed and maintained for five years.

Page 2
III.B. "Record filing needs to be improved."
Existing records will be collected and filed according to category, i.e. Chain of
Custody, Lab Reports, Field Parameter Bench Sheets, etc... Total Residual
Chlorine Curve will be posted on the wall of the Lab. Temperature Correction
Certification will be filed and correction factor written on the instrument +/-.
III.B.1. "A calibration verification standard (gel standard) is not analyzed. Cited in
Previous inspection.
III.B.1. Gel Standards will be analyzed and recorded on Bench Sheets. Gel Standards
Gel Standards by HACH will not be expired and will be +/- 10% of the value.
The true value for our Gel Standards was established by our Contract Lab.
This value will be confirmed annually, per your instruction.
The instruction to conduct a mid -range standard will need additional
Explanation from your office.
III.B.1. pH
Comment (NEW POLICY). "The laboratory needs to verify the Automatic
Temperature Compensator (ATC) of the pH meter annually."
Our meter will be checked annually by our contract Laboratory. The test date
will be recorded on the up -dated Bench Sheet.
III.C. "The meter is not calibrated with buffers that bracket the range of the
samples".
Three buffers will be analyzed, 4.0 then 10.0, then check and record 7.0.
Our meter will read two places right of the decimal.
IV. PAPER TRAIT, INVESTIGATION:
"Data were reviewed for February, May, and July 2006. The following errors
were noted."
As required all DMR's in question will be amended. Copies are attached for
your files.

Page 3
IV.D. "The reported BOD data are not qualified when the contract laboratory
indicates that a quality control failure occurred."
On the amended DMR's * will appear with reference to the control
failure. The Laboratory explanation will be recorded on the Facility Status
Form.

Field - Maintenance
Mr. Gary Francies
Mr. Otis Ward .
This laboratory was inspected to verify its compliance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0800 for
the analysis of environmental samples.
II. GENERAL COMMENTS:
The facility has all the equipment necessary to perform the analyses.. Since the last inspection a new
D.O. meter has been. obtained. Most data appeared accurate.. Documentation needs to be improved.
Some further quality control procedures need to be implemented.
III. DEFICIENCIES, REQUIREMENTS, COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
Documentation
A. COMMENT: Overall documentation needs to be improved.
NOTE: Items missing include calibration of meters (pH, D,O. and Chlorine), time of meter calibration,
and initials. Documentation needs to be streamlined and made more simple and efficient. At the
current time four different forms are used but none consistently. Between all the available forms all
required items have places to be documented but documentation is not performed consistently from
one day to the next.. Staff is currently working on producing one form. A draft copy has been submitted
for review and comments were given.. Please submit the final version with your response to this report.
REQUIREMENT: Data pertinent to each analysis must be maintained for five years. Certified data must
consist of date collected, time collected, samples site, sample collector, and sample analysis time. The
field bench sheets must provide a space for the signature of the analyst, and proper units of measure
for all analyses. Ref: 15A NCAC 2H .0805 (g) (1).
B. COMMENT. Record filing needs to improve.
NOTE: Some items could not be found during the inspection. These include the annual Total Residual
Chlorine standard curve verification and the temperature sensor calibrations for the D.O. and pH
meters. These items were obtained from the contract lab and submitted after the inspection.

Page 2
REQUIREMENT: Supporting records shall be maintained as evidence that these practices are being
effectively carried out. All analytical records must be available for a period of five years. Ref: 15A
NCAC 2H .0805 (a) (7) and (a) (7) (G).
Total Residual Chlorine
1. DEFICIENCY: A calibration verification standard (gel standard) is not analyzed. Cited in
Previous inspection.
NOTE: It is recommended that this verification standard be approximately mid range. When the
calibration verification standard varies by more than ± 10%, or is outside the established control limits,
whichever is lower, the analysis is out of control. The analysis must be terminated and the problem
corrected.
REQUIREMENT: For analyses that require a series of standards, a standard must be analyzed with
each group of samples to verify the standard curve. Ref: Standard Methods, 18th Edition - Method
4500-CI G., Method 1020B Quality Control (5) page 1-5 and Method 1070D 2.
COMMENT: The gel standard had not had its true value established..
NOTE: This has been completed and submitted. No reply is required.
REQUIREMENT: Establish the true value of the gel standard by reading the gel standard on a meter
that has just had the internal curve verified. Assign that reading as the true value of the gel standard.
Document this procedure. This procedure must be performed annually (every 12 months) to verify gel
standards that have exceeded the documented expiration date.. Each gel standard must be verified
specifically to each meter,
p
COMMENT (New Policy): The laboratory needs to verify the Automatic Temperature Compensator
(ATC) of the pH meter annually.
NOTE: This has been completed and submitted. No reply is required.
REQUIREMENT: There have been some changes made by the Certification Program. We have new
policies for ATC verification of pH meters. The following must be performed on an annual (12 month)
basis:
Automatic Temperature Compensator Check (ATC) for pH meter, performed every 12 months
1. Take a buffer solution and cool to below 101C and read the temperature. Analyze the buffer solution
at that temperature. Document the temperature and the measured pH value obtained on the log sheet.
2. Raise the temperature of the buffer solution to approximately 25°C. Document the temperature and
the measured pH value on the log sheet..
3. Raise the temperature of the buffer or standard solution to approximately 35°C. Document the
temperature and the measured pH or standard solution value on the log sheet.
4. Repeat with additional temperature adjustments and pH readings as necessary to ensure the
temperature usually measured for samples has been bracketed. As the temperature increases or
decreases the value of the buffer solution should remain approximately the same..
Ref: NC Certification Policy Statement February 2006
C. COMMENT: The meter is not calibrated with buffers that bracket the range of the samples.

IV.
Page. 3
NOTE: Currently the meter is calibrated with 4 and 7 buffers and the 7 buffer is reanalyzed as a quality
control (QC) check. The meter should be calibrated with 4 and 10 buffers and the 7 analyzed as a QC
check.
REQUIREMENT: For routine work, use a pH meter accurate and reproducible to 0.1 pH units with a
range of 0 to 14 and equipped with a temperature compensation adjustment. The meter must be
calibrated with at least two buffers that bracket the range of the samples to be analyzed. After
calibration, analyze a third buffer below pH 10, approximately three pH units different from the second.
The reading should be within 0.1 units of true value.. The results of the third buffer must be
documented. Ref: Standard Methods, 18th Edition - Method 4500 - H+ B (2) and (4) (a) and Ref: 15A
NCAC 2H .0805 (a) (7).
PAPER TRAIL INVESTIGATION:
A review of data was conducted. This consisted of comparing field testing
reports to Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) submitted to this Division..

reported as 5.0 mg/L. Staff indicated that the value reported was an estimate of historical data.
After consulting with staff from Surface Water Protection, they are indicating that amended DMRs must
be submitted to this Division in order to avoid questions of legality..
The follow item was noted during review of DMRs.
D. COMMENT: The reported BOD data are not qualified when the contract laboratory indicates that a
quality 'control failure occurred.
REQUIREMENT: If all quality control requirements are not met, it is required that the data are qualified
and the qualifications appear on the back of the DMR. Any contract lab qualifying statement must be
documented on the DMR. NCLC Policy
V. CONCLUSIONS:
This facility is doing a good job overall. Correcting the above items should help to produce quality data
and meet certification requirements, The inspector would like to thank the staff for their assistance in
the inspection and data review process. Please submit a written repIV to all numbered deficiencies
and lettered comments.

WATER QUALITY SECTION
ASHEVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
On April 29, 2006 the Town of Elk Park WWTP NCO079561 received a violation letter
for failure to record Ph residuals on the April DMR. It was an oversight on the operator's
part. The Ph was recorded in the operator's logbook and the information was not carried
over.to the DMR. In the -future double-checking the DMR prior to mailing into the
central office will prevent the oversight from happening again.
Thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.
If there are any questions concerning this matter arise, please feel free to contact myself,
Otis Ward at the Town of Elk Park 828-733-9573.

Dear Ms. Hicks:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection form from the
inspection conducted on June 2, 2006 by Wanda Frazier of the Asheville Regional Office. The
facility was found to be in Compliance with permit NC0079561. Please refer to the enclosed
inspection report for additional observations and comments.
The wastewater treatment plant appears to be in compliance and well operated &
maintained. Mr. Ward is doing an excellent job of plant operations & maintenance, field-testing,
sample collection and submittal of records & reports.
Mr. Ward is also responsible for the wastewater treatment plant, sewer collection system,
drinking water wells & distribution system, as well as, meter reading, trash collection and other
duties. The duties and responsibilities placed on Mr. Ward by the Town is incomprehensible,
especially in light of the extensive technical knowledge, complexity of State regulated
environmental programs, the time needed to perform these duties and meet all the applicable
State regulations and permit requirements.
I would strongly recommend that the Town seriously evaluate ways that other Town staff
members can support Mr. Ward's duties and relieve him of some of the day-to-day time
consuming activities. Given his present responsibilities, certification and permit requirements,
more time in his schedule needs to allowed, to ensure that the State's program requirements
are being met. The benefit to the Town will be in not risking receipt of Notices of 'Violations and
automatic civil penalties for non-compliance.

It is requested that a secondary review of all reports and records (especially the monthly
monitoring reports) be done by the Town's support staff, prior to submittal to ensure accuracy
.and completeness.
Mr. Ward is to be highly commended for his conscientiousness, initiative, dedication and
outstanding job performance, despite the enormous amount of responsibilities and level of
technical expertise required daily. The Town of Elk Park is extremely fortunate to have Mr.
Ward, as it's most valuable resource.
At the time of the inspection, the effluent was clear and producing a good quality effluent,
despite recent high rainfall events producing infiltration and inflow into the collection system.
As the influent flows reaches 80% of the permitted monthly average flow of 100,000 gallons per
day, the Town will need to pursue plans for a WWTP expansion. Please contact your engineers
to discuss available options, timetables and financing.
The WWTP is in need of another dissolved oxygen and pH meter. These are required to
be used daily and the existing ones need replacing. The effluent DO was 5.3 mg/I. The effluent
pH was 7.0 units. The effluent temperature was 15.9 degrees Celsius. The effluent total residual
chlorine was <2 0 ug/I.
If you or your staff have any questions, please call me at 828-296-4500 extension 4662.

Dear Permittee:
The North Carolina Division of Water Resources conducted an inspection of the Elk Park WWTP on June 28,

In addition, the issues below must also be addressed:
Compliance Issue(s): The Cranberry Pump Station control boxes are corroded. A manhole on Elk River Rd

Inspection Summary:
On 6/28/2017, 1 (Daniel Boss) conducted a Compliance Evaluation Inspection of Elk Park Collection System. I met with
backup ORC, Otis Ward, who assisted with the inspection. Documentation was sufficient in some areas and lacking in
others. Pump station inspection documentation could be more complete. Right of way maintenance and high priority line
inspections should be documented. Sewer line cleaning, repair, and other maintenance should be documented in a log
book.
Pump station #1, Dark Hollow, had only one operating pump. Review of the log book revealed that this station has been
operating with only one functional pump for almost 3 of the last 4 months. Otis said that a functional backup pump is on
hand and ready to be installed. Please install that pump immediately, and going forward do not allow pump stations to run
with only one functioning pump for more than 24 hours past discovery of the situation.
Pump station #2, Cranberry, has a lot of rust on the control boxes. I recommend refurbishment to protect the controls. A
canopy would offer some protection for the control boxes and perhaps reduce corrosion. One other recommendation is for a
low float alarm. In the event that the shut off float for the pumps stops working, they could keep running even when the wet
well is pumped down and the pumps are dry. This could damage the pumps. A low float alarm could alert an operator of
this condition and perhaps save the pumps.
A manhole Otis and I inspected along Elk River Rd needs the encasing concrete repaired. This manhole was hidden by tall
weeds. Manholes need to be kept visible and accessible. Please keep records of maintaining the right of ways.

Dear Mr. Boone:
On February 19, 2014, I conducted a Compliance Evaluation Inspection of the Elk Park Collection System
Program. You were briefly present; Tim Fox with the Division of Water Resources and Otis Ward with the
Town of Elk Park were also present. There were maintenance needs. at the two pump/lift stations that were
immediately taken care of following the inspection. The time and efforts related to the collection system
program by the Towns personnel are appreciated.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments. If you or your staff

Inspection Summary:
Present during the inspection were Tim Fox with Division of Water Resources and Otis Ward the Operator in Responsible
Charge (ORC) with Elk Park. The Mayor was also present for some of the inspection.
System is. fairly new; 1996 with 204 customers in town and 18 out of town. The system is smoke tested yearly. Personnel
stated right of ways are accessible if need be.
Both pump stations need work immediately. The town will respond back to the inspector with documentation of the work
completed.
Documentation of work completed by the town was received in the Asheville Office on March 5, 2014. An itemized list of
work as well as photo and video documentation were sent verifying work completed.
Both pump/lift stations were cleaned and pumped. The alarm systems were repaired and now work. Both had simple
repairs needed. It is suggested that these station be on a pumping schedule depending on fats/debris buildup.
On 2/21/2014 the inspector emailed the ORC the Operational Log Package which consists of various forms related to
collection systems.
Overall the program is well managed. These were pump station maintenance issues that needed immediate attention;
this will be an ongoing demand of the ORCs and towns time and resources. Another helpful ongoing maintenance
practice of a collection system is cleaning; if the the town plans to clean their system they should consider the feasibility of
purchasing a jetter system vs contracting this service out.

I just sent you the ORC form separately.
I also found the collection system inspection done by Linda Wiggs (with you) back in February 19, 2014, and the Town's

Do you need any of that? I'd be glad to send it to you.
Let me know---Thanks---Janet

SUBJECT: Privately -owned Collection Systems
and Privately -owned Pump Stations
Avery County
Dear Ms. Guinn:
As we have continued our evaluations of sewage collection systems management, it was
recognized that there are a group of contributors that may not be informed of their individual
responsibilities. In March 2000, the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
enacted rules related to sewage collection systems. These rules are now found in the North
Carolina Administrative Code 15 NCAC 2T .0403 for deemed permitted facilities. They include
facilities with a privately -owned collection system that serve condominiums, apartments, mobile
home parks, subdivisions, shopping centers, colleges, etc. that are tributary to larger municipally
owned systems, yet are not owned or managed by the municipality.
If you are aware of any such privately -owned collection systems, we would also like to be
informed of their existence. In addition, we would like to know where any privately -owned pump
stations are located that are connected to your collection system. The type of information we
are requesting is the facility name, location and contact person. If that system is in a state of
disrepair or if you have received complaints about it previously, please note that as well.
Your attention. to this request is most appreciated. We have been notified of problems at
some of these facilities in the past and have had a difficult time locating the responsible party to
affect a repair to the problem.
A response from you within 30 days would be very helpful as we try to ensure that all
owners of collection systems are meeting the regulatory requirements of reporting spills and
providing the proper operation and maintenance of their systems. Hopefully, this will also be
beneficial to the operation of your municipal collection system. North Carolina

Dear Mr. Cook:
I would like to take this opportunity to discuss the requirements for sewerage collection
systems that were first established in 15 NCAC .02H .0200 in March 2000 and are now found in
15 NCAC 2T .0403, Waste Not Discharged to Surface Waters, which became effective
September 1, 2006. These Regulations place significant operation, maintenance and reporting
requirements on those entities that own or operate a wastewater collection system with average
daily flows of less than 200,000 gallons per day.
These regulations are applicable to your facility. This letter is provided as guidance
to assist you in complying with the new reporting and operations and maintenance (O&M)
requirements and to advise you that you are subject to system review, inspections and possible
enforcement, if the system is not in compliance with the regulation.
For your convenience and easy reference, a highlight of these requirements and the
following .guidance are offered (see enclosed). You may find the regulations using the following
web site: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/peres/Collection%2OSystems/CollectionSystemsHome.html
The Asheville Regional Office will be increasing the level of oversight, compliance
activities and enforcement relating to collections systems, therefore, we wanted to be sure you
are aware of the requirements for these systems. We will be performing NPDES Wastewater
Collection System inspections sometime in the near future.

To Whom It May Concern:
O ay den we had a call that ater was running opt of a m rahole. This happens to be the last one going
to the W.W.Plant. The manhole is the smallest one as in depth. Over a period of time the manhole
collected some grit & grease, therefore causing it to backup and over flow .There was about 1" of water
running out of the manhole for approximately 2 hours. Water had run out down the road about 500 ft
and into a ditch. I had been down to the plant earlier and there was no SSO at that time. Considering
the time that it could have started and the time Rotor Rooter jetted the line, I could only estimate the
amount of spill. Given the amount of time that had passed 600 gallons would be a high estimate, in my
opinion. Since this occurred I have regularly checked this manhole for grease,grit,etc. I have also rodded
the main from this manhole to the plant to reduce chance of blockage again. It had been about a year
since I had smoke tested the system, which I do annually. At that time there were no problems with this
manhole.
The town does have a grease ordinance for grease traps. I have records when each one of these has
been pumped.
I have not sent out any information or literature concerning grease. I plan to put an ad in the local paper
concerning FOG (Fats, Oils, Grease). It will appear in the local newspaper next week.
If you have any questions regarding this matter please feel free to call Otis Ward (ORC) at Town of Elk
Park at 828-733-9573 or my cell ph. 828-387-1005.

INCIDENT # 201101201
DATED 5/4/2011
To Whom It May Concern: .
This letter is in response to your questions concerning a CSO/SS on May 4th, 2011.
In my previous response to this SSO I estimated the spill without using the estimation table.
Noted below could be a more accurate figure using the estimation table chart.
1. The Town of Elk Park determines the volume of a spill by using 7.2 Flow Estimation Tables.
A 24" Manhole Cover with 1" flow equals to 6 gpm & for 2 hours equals to 1,080 gals.
Our Manhole Cover is 22" in Diameter; therefore my estimate would be between 600 & 800 gals
spilled Maximum, in my opinion.
2. The Town of Elk Park has a Sewer Use Ordinance that includes a FOG clause. I have enclosed a
copy that was sent out recently.
3. The line was last cleaned about a year ago.
4. Public education information for grease was last sent out on June 22, 2011.1 have also enclosed
a copy of the information that was advertised in the local newspaper.

Inspection Summary:
Facility information: Collection System permit # WQCSD0557
The Collection System blueprint drawings and map were prepared by (McGill) John Coxey, P.E. in 1995.
The Town of Elk Park built a new WWTP and installed a new collection system in 1996. Prior to that
time, the residents had septic systems.
Description:
Approximately 31,000 linear ft of sewer collection system for — 255 business and residential
customer taps serving — 500 residents. The entire collection system was installed in 1996 and
consists of 8-in gravity SDR-35 pipe and 8-inch DIP (ductile iron pipe) force main.
There are two duplex (30 HP Aurora hydromatic) pump stations with telemetry (no generators).
Heather Buchanan Electric installed the Sensaphone® 1400 telemetry system 2-3 years ago.

The goal for annual sewer line cleaning is 3100 feet. Purchase of a jetter would be a
suggestion.
The two pump stations do not have emergency generators, nor does the Town have an emergency
portable generator. This would be a suggestion for the CIP.

TOWN OF ELK PARK, NORTH CAROLINA
HAZARD COMMUNICATION, ASSESSMENT AND
SPILL RESPONSE PLAN AND PROCEDURES
PURPOSE:
This plan is to be implemented in the event of a Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) or spill
within the Wastewater Collection System. This plan was developed to ensure that key
personnel respond to every spill event within sixty (60) minutes of a reported event.
INITIAL RESPONSE:
Spills reported to or detected by collection system personnel require immediate
attention. The Collection System ORC and / or Back-up Operator will make the
preliminary assessment of the spill within 15 minutes after receiving report. That
assessment includes visiting the spill site. The ORC or Back-up Operator will determine
the appropriate response and request assistance from key personnel, as necessary. The
contact list will be updated annually and include .essential response equipment and
personnel. Local contractors may be employed, as deemed necessary.
Key personnel will, upon assessing the site, continue to document the event and
determine the severity, magnitude and potential environmental impact. Every effort
should be made to minimize the spill event consistent with the SOURCE CONTROL AND
CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES section of this plan. The safety of all response personnel
should never be compromised.
Key personnel should implement recovery actions to eliminate the cause of the
obstruction and / or system failure as outlined in this plan.
POST SPILL RESPONSE (REPORTING):
After containment is achieved, the Division of Water Quality, (DWQ) must be contacted as
soon as possible but, in no case later than 24 hours after initial detection if;
1) the spill has reached surface waters, "waters of the State" or
2) the spill exceeds one thousand gallons, (1,000 gallons)
Spills that are fully contained and removed quickly and are less than one thousand
gallons are not required to be reported to DWQ. However, a full spill report form will be
filled out and kept on file. All spills must be logged in, regardless of size, and include the
incident date, time, duration, approximate volume and name of respondent(s).

SOURCE CONTROL AND CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES:
Depending on the nature of the spill or overflow, the initial assessment should indicate
the priority of source control and/or containment.
1) When the source can be isolated through valves, plugs or other methods, the
flow should be discontinued immediately or reduced to the least possible
volume.
2) If the pumps on the location are not operating the control panel should be
checked as follows:
a. Is the Power on?
b. Check the breaker.
c. If the breaker is closed, check the thermal overloads (external button).
d. Is the overload good? Check the fuses, if you are trained to do so.
e. Is the pump straining or clogged with debris?
f. Do you smell a burnt motor? (contact from attached list)
g. Is an electrician needed? (contact from attached list)
3) Containment methods will typically include;
a. Sand or dirt dikes and dams (for small streams & creeks).
b. Holes or pits (to prevent run off to surface waters).
If the spill event resulted from an area wide power outage, you should contact Power
Company and identify your site as critical. (Use the account number on the attached list.)
If the problem is mechanical in nature, retrieve parts from inventory and make repairs.
Re -order parts as they are used.
If the problem results from a sewer blockage, call for a jet-rodding machine (contact
contractor from attached list).

SPILL RESPONSE PROCEDURES FOR SPILLS OCCURRING:
ON MAJOR INTERCEPTOR / RIGHT OF WAY
1. Put up warning tape ("DANGER / CAUTION - DO NOT ENTER") around
the SSO site to restrict access.
2. In open areas, remove debris and lime site. Rotor -till, if needed.
Re -seed and mulch with straw.
3. In areas where there is under growth and small trees, flush area with
potable water until no waste remains. Wait twelve to twenty four
hours and then lime the area. Be certain that lime does not flush to
the receiving stream. NOTE: DO NOT LIME, IF RAIN IS FORECASTED.
IN CITIZEN'S YARD
1. Till entire affected area, if possible. Apply lime and follow with seed
and straw.
2. If waste/debris is not visible, apply lime and 2 inches of top soil and
mix thoroughly. Apply lime lightly, seed and mulch.
ON ASPHALT OR CONCRETE
1. Set up containment at or near the storm drainage system. Do not let
the spill enter the storm drain system.
2. Put up warning tape ("DANGER / CAUTION - DO NOT ENTER") around
the SSO area.
3. Spread lime on spillage and sand or apply other material to a. depth of
one inch. Let this material absorb for one hour, then sweep up.
Dispose of debris appropriately. If spill is still evident, repeat
application.
4. After removing the contaminated material, wash down area with high
pressure water and bleach.
5. Pump the clean up materials and wash water into sanitary sewer.

IN A CREEK OR STREAM
1. Take conductivity readings of the receiving stream upstream and
downstream to determine where a temporary dam should be placed.
2. The dam should be constructed near a manhole which is accessible to
the jet rodder and vacuum truck.
3. The dam should be placed below the spill as indicated by low
conductivity readings.
4. Construct a dam sized to contain the flow of water, plus any flush
water added during the clean up.
5. Station pumps at the clean-up site, one to use, one for backup.
6. Have a back hoe at the site for dam repairs as needed.
7. Wash down all of the rip rap along the stream bank until no residue is
evident.
8. Put up warning tape ("DANGER / CAUTION - DO NOT ENTER") at spill
site and 400 feet downstream.
9. Take upstream and downstream samples for fecal coliform.
10. Repeat sampling until normal, background counts are 200 fecal
coliform colony forming units/100 mi.
11. If settled sludge is evident, sweep bottom until clean.
12. If creek or stream is recreational waters (swimming), notify the
affected community and local officials, as soon as the problem is
discovered.

Dear Mr. Cox:
t„ 1
Please find enclosed three (3) sets of revised plans for the above referenced project. The revised plans �:
include the changes discussed in our phone conversation of September 21, 1995. These include the following: I- ','
-Sheet 6 Ductile Iron Pipe added at both water line crossings
-Sheet 14 Ductile Iron Pipe added at water line crossing at station 22+50 T,
-Sheet 39 Ductile Iron Pipe added at creek crossing at station 28+80
Please note that the concrete encasement at each creek crossing has been replaced with Ductile Iron Pipe.
Also note revised sheet 38 which has the plan and profile for the missing portion of 6" force main.
Also enclosed is a revised set of pump calculations for the School pump station. The previously submitted
calculations contained an error in flow calculations. This did not affect the pumps to be used, but did change the
cycle and run times for the pumps.
Please review the enclosed information and contact our office if there are any questions or if additional
information is required.
