County NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 1 of 18 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS Section A. Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. Annual Average The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Day The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. Calendar Week The period from Sunday through the following Saturday. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 mL in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or Version 1110912011.1 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 18 (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following restrictions also apply: ➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters ➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also "Composite Sample," above.) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Daily Sampling Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s). DWR or "the Division" The Division of Water Resources, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Effluent Wastewater discharged following all treatment processes from a water pollution control facility or other point source whether treated or untreated. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission EPA The United States Environmental Protection Agency Facility Closure Cessation of all activities that require coverage under this NPDES permit. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded. Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]") shall be considered = 1. Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 mL collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Version 1110912011.1 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 3 of 18 Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the CWA. Instantaneous flow measurement The flow measured during the minimum time required for the flow measuring device or method to produce a result in that instance. To the extent practical, instantaneous flow measurements coincide with the collection of any grab samples required for the same sampling period so that together the samples and flow are representative of the discharge during that sampling period. Monthly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Resources. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe property damage Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the CWA. Upset An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Permittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements. An upset does not include noncompliance caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. Weekly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar week. In the case of fecal coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1. Duty to Comply The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit. Any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of the CWA and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit renewal application [40 CFR 122.41]. a.

Version 1110912011.1 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 14 of 18 PART IV SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR MUNICIPAL FACILITIES Section A. Definitions In addition to the definitions in Part II of this permit, the following definitions apply to municipal facilities: Indirect Discharge or Industrial User Any non -domestic source that discharges wastewater containing pollutants into a POTW regulated under section 307(b), (c) or (d) of the CWA. [40 CFR 403.3 (i) and 0) and 15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(11)] Tnterference Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(14)] Pass Through A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)] Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization. This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T .0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)] "Significant Industrial User" or "SIU" An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [I 5A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(33)]: 1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary, noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or 2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS and ammonia; or 3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or 4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options; 5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a Significant Industrial User (SIU); or 6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a non -significant categorical Industrial User. Section B. Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) Version 1110912011.1 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 15 of 18 All POTWs must provide adequate notice to the Director of the following [40 CFR 122.42(b)]: 1. Any new introduction of pollutants into the POTW from an indirect discharger, regardless of the means of transport, which would be subject to section 301 or 306 of CWA if it were directly discharging those pollutants; and 2. Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced by an indirect discharger as influent to that POTW at the time of issuance of the permit. 3. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality and quantity of effluent introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact that may result from the change of the quantity or quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW. Section C. Municipal Control of Pollutants from Industrial Users. 1. Effluent limitations are listed in Part I of this permit. Other pollutants attributable to inputs from Industrial Users discharging to the POTW may be present in the Permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality standards. 2. Prohibited Discharges a. The Permittee shall develop and enforce their Pretreatment Program to implement the prohibition against the introduction of pollutants or discharges into the waste treatment system or waste collection system which cause or contribute to Pass Through or Interference as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0900 and 40 CFR 403. [40 CFR 403.5(a)(1)] b.

Derek Denerd with DWR Central Staff was also present. The ARO has not required the permittee to obtain an ORC at this time; however the permittee employs Rich Holder on a 'monthly basis to assist them in managing the system. The tank had been pumped two days prior to the inspection, therefore the system was not discharging and samples could not be obtained. An annual arithmetic mean of BOD revealed a noncompliant result of 48 mg/I. Monthly sampling of this system is occurring most months due to BOD and TSS effluent limit exceedances. . These Jet Air type systems are very dated (1970's) and not effective by today's standards. Mr. Holder appears to be managing this system with moderate success. If he was not managing the system monthly, it would likely be failing. Because the compliance of this system is tenuous, it is suggested the following management strategies be discussed by the Permittee and Mr: Holder. This system is serving a family of four. Their diligence to proper use and water conservation is essential. Currently, the system is being pumped annually, it is suggested that increased pumping -be performed (perhaps biannually). Also discussed at the inspection was the addition of a filter media to the system. Mr. Holder has a media that can be placed into the last chamber of the system in an attempt to gain more biologic growth to assist with BOD compliance. If the media proves not,to be beneficial, it shall be removed. Replacement of this system may be imminent, however the above mentioned management strategies may assist in gaining/maintaining compliance in the meantime.

Skvarla, III Secretary In response to your request to renew the subject NPDES permit, the Division of Water Resources (DWR or the Division) hereby transmits this draft for your review and comment. Please review this document to assure your understanding of the permit limits and monitoring conditions, and to correct errors, if any. The changes between this draft permit and the previous permit include the following: Added updates to facility map and parameter codes. Added a limit (28 µg/L) for Total Residual Chorine (TRC). The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 µg/l to be in compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 µg/l. Updated Section A. (3.) Special Operating Conditions as follows: a) When a public or community sewage system becomes available, the permittee should evaluate any possible connections to a sewer line. b) The Permittee must make points of effluent discharge accessible at all times. Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these regulations will be adopted and is beginning implementation. The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to your NPDES permit.

This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). This permit includes no major changes from the draft permit sent to you on March 28, 2007. If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, -Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. On May 21, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received a letter from the office of John C. Hunter requesting clarification of certain conditions in the Draft NPDES permits issued to Mr. Binkelman NC0085456; Ms. Walling NC0085341, Mr. Patrizio NCO085448 and Mr. Pruett NC0085464. The Division offers the following responses to his questions with issuance of each individual permit. Sianator reauirement for sinale-familv residences All of the residence owners have signed and submitted applications for permit renewals and have indicated they are the "Owners" of the wastewater treatment systems that produce a wastewater discharge. While the Division understands the literal requirement of the Code of Federal Regulations, for the case of the single-family residences, the homeowner(s) are signators and "Sole proprietors". While.the Division will not modify the "Boiler Plate Language" of the permits, the language will be clarified under the effluent requirements. Reliability Requirements At this time, due to the size and de minimus potential impact should a power failure occur, the Division will waive the reliability requirement. The last sentence of paragraph states that backup power is required only when necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Flow Measurement It is implied that the maximum amount of wastewater, which can be discharged from a single-family residence is 120 gallons per bedroom. While measurement device will not be required for the treatment facilities, flow can be estimated for the annual requirement. Please work with the Asheville Regional Office for this estimation.

Discharge points are noted and documented by information presented by the permittee within the permit renewal application. If the permittee has GIS information other than what.was submitted in their permit renewal applications please have them forward the information to the DWQ fora more precise map/location of the discharge outfalls from their treatment systems. Response to Specific Permit Conditions Monitorina Freauenc The proposed frequency of 1/month is less than any standard individually permitted domestic waste discharge. The Division cannot modify these frequencies at this time. The Division hopes that the homeowners will seek out and find an alternative to discharge prior to the effective date of the increased monitoring requirements. Connection to MSD Buncombe The DWO understands the notential cost of ronnertinn to mqn Tha hnmanwnars miict nrnviria thic information to eliminate this, if it is a cost prohibitive option. Significant Noncompliance Non-compliance indicates the wastewater discharge exceeds permit limits as noted in the permit. A certified operator would not be required unless deemed necessary by the Asheville Regional Office and the NPDES program. The homeowner would receive a written notification with a timeline to acquire a certified operator, should this occur. Please accept these responses and clarifications to the above referenced NPDES Permits. The DWQ understands these permit conditions and requirements can be challenging and sometimes difficult to comply with. This is the reason why all Individual NPDES permits must be put out for public notice to allow for feedback from perspective permit holders and the public. The Division hopes that the four homeowners will work together to find an alternative to discharge to the Swannanoa River. Please note .that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be required.

NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 1 of 16 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS Section A. Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. 3 Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq., Annual Average The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Day The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (4) Constant tune/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. Version 81V2006 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 16 In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in dumber of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" for conventional and other non -toxicant parameters. NOTE: Permittees may not submit a "daily average" :calculation [for determining compliance with permit limits] for toxicants. -See the relevant Federal effluent guidelines] for the appropriate calculation interval. Daily Sampling Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit The Division expects that sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s). DWQ or "the Division" The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. Facility Closure The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility, or the cessation of all activities that require coverage under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]' shall be considered = L Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act Instantaneous flow measurement A measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. Version 8112006 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions - Page 3 of 16 Monthly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit IssuingAuthority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe property dam= Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant - Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(I of the Clean Water Act Upset An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Permittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements.

There have been no changes to the'system. All of the information that was requested is enclosed: Thank you for your consideration. i Sincerely, Id - Suzanne L. Pruett ,f Sludge Management Plan for the Jet Aeration Plant The Jet plant employs a sophisticated bio-chemical process in which aerobic bacteria, using oxygen in the solution, break down and.oxidize household sewage. The primary treatment compartment receives the household sewage and holds it long enough to allow solid matter to settle to the sludge layer at the tank's bottom_ Here anaerobic bacterial action continuously breaks down the sewage solids. In the aeration chamber the finely divided and pre-treated sewage from the primary treatment compartment is mixed with activated sludge and aerated. The Jet plant circulates and mixes the entire content while injecting ample air to meet the oxygen demand of the aerobic digestion process. i The final phase of the operation takes place in the settling/clarifying compartment. In this compartment a tube settler eliminates currents and enhances the settling of any` remaining suspended material which is returned, via the tank's sloping end wall, to the aeration chamber for further treatment. A non -mechanical surface skimmer, operated byl hydraulics, skims any floating material from the surface of the settling compartment and returns it to the aeration compartment. The remaining odorless, clarifies liquid flows) through the discharge line to the baffled outlet.

The Zaber filter, which does not increase the frequency of servicing for the tank, should be cleaned when the septic tank is normally inspected and pumped. However, our filter is virtually self-cleaning. The continued action of the anaerobic organisms on the Zabel filter causes lodged particles to disintegrate and fall to the bottom of the tank.

"GPD" means "gallons per day", the way in which wastewater treatment plants are rated. Plants in the J-1500 Series have been tested and meet NSF Standard 40 criteria for a Class I NSF Listing. Most. plants, 500 thru 750 GPD, serve single family dwellings. Larger plants normally serve other buildings. owners of 1000 thru 1500 GPD .plants. 500 GPD Plant BAT® PROCESS Your plant uses .let's new, exclusive waste- water treatment process called Biologically Accelerated Treatment® or BAT® for short. In this process, millions of microorganisms attach themselves to the media. The Jet aerator supplies the oxygen utilized by the microorganisms to convert the waste to colorless, odorless liquids and gases. This provides an extraordinarily high degree of treatment.

Your aerator requires no owner maintenance. Fresh, outside air is drawn into the Treatment compartment by the aerator. Air travels down the Mounting Casting Cover air vent thru the aerator and into the tank. This pro- vides oxygen for the treatment process. Any foam is controlled by the foam restrictor. The aerators operation is virtually silent. Sometimes there is a very slight sound of air moving into the tank. Occasionally, when a tank is located close to a bedroom window an owner may wish complete silence. In this case, complete silence can be obtained by asking your Jet Distributor to install an Aerator Silencer. Jet has a Standard and Floodproof aerator. The Floodproof is sealed to protect it from damage by water. The Floodproof is not designed to operate under water. If a high water level occurs, the control panel circuit breaker will open, shutting off power to the aerator, and the warning light will turn "on." If this hap- pens, press the circuit breaker reset button on the control panel to restart the aerator. Vent Cap Aerator Access Cover Never handle your aerator.

OWNER'S MANUAL V HOW YOUR JET PLANT WORKS Your JET Plant consists of a tank, a JET Aerator, and Jet BAT Process Media.r•D Your plant uses Jet's new exclusive waste- water treatment process called BIOLOGICALLY ACCELER- ATED TREATMENT" — BAT@ for short. The tank has three compartments. Arrows on the diagram below indicate the flow pattern and flow direction through these compartments. This plant is NSF rated at 500 gpd. The compartment on the left is designed for pretreatment. This compartment receives the wastewater and treats it physically and biochemically before it passes on to the center treatment compartment. The JET Aerator injects fresh air into the treatment com- partment to provide oxygen and mixing to support Jet's revolutionary, state -of -the -art -BIOLOGICALLY ACCELER- ATED TREATMENT'" process. In this process, great num- bers of microorganisms attach -themselves to the Jet BAT Process Media,o providing an extraordinarily high degree of treatment as they convert the wastewater to odorless, color- less liquids and gases. Air from the JET Aerator supplies the oxygen required by the microorganisms to complete this process. Mixing insures that all the wastewater inside the compartment comes in contact with the microorganisms for total treatment. The treated contents inside the center compartment then flow into the settling compartment. Here, any fine particles settle and return to the treatment compartment, leaving only a clear, odorless, treated liquid for final discharge.

From Mounting here, it goes through Flow Llne Casting the aspirator shaft and is injected into the liq- uid to provide the oxy- gen required for the . treatment process. Only corrosion -proof stainless steel and PVC plastic parts are used in or near the wastewater. A foam restrictor disc at the top of the shaft controls the foam created by the mixing/aeration process. This disc throws the foam to the sides of the tank, breaks it up, contains it in the tank and protects the aerator. There are two types of JET Aerators— a Standard Model and a Floodproof Model. The Floodproof Model is totally sealed to protect it from damage by water: It should be installed where there is a possibility of water damage., The Floodproof Aerator is not designed to operate under water. If it floods, the circuit breaker on the control panel will automatically open, shut off power to the aerator and light the aerator warning light on the control panel. If this happens, it will be necessary for you to press the circuit breaker reset button to start the aerator again. CIRCUIT BREAKER PROTECTION A warning light and a circuit breaker reset button are located on the control panel cover. If there should be an electrical overload; the circuit breaker button will pop out, open the circuit and protect the aerator from damage. The warning light will glow red when the circuit breaker has opened, indicating that power to the aerator has been cut off. When this happens, press the red button on the panel cover to reset the circuit breaker. This should start the aerator operating again. If, instead, the red aerator warning light comes on repeatedly, call your'Jet Distributor for service. Wiring instructions and a wiring diagram are inside the control panel cover. Energy requirements are 115 Volt, 60 HZ. Electrical work must be performed in accordance with the requirements of the National Electrical Code and local codes. NEVER TOUCH YOUR JET AERA TOR OR THE CONTROL PANEL WIRING UNLESS THEIR POWER SUPPLY HAS BEEN TURNED OFF. WARNING BUZZER (OPTIONAL) Your control panel may also be equipped with a warning buzzer. This buzzer will sound when the circuit breaker trips and the aerator warning light goes on. Both buzzer and warning light can be turned off by pressing the circuit breaker reset button on the control panel cover. Normally, this will start the aerator running again. If the buzzer and warning light come on repeatedly, turn the switch in the control panel to "OFF" and immediately call your Jet THESE ITEMS SHOULD NEVER GO INTO ANY SYSTEM Your JET Plant will handle all wastewater from your home and all items normally disposed of by your home plumbing system. For proper plant operation, never permit these items to pass into your plant... • Plastic Products - Rubber Products - Towels and Wash- cloths - Sanitary Napkins - Mop Strings - Paints • Grease ... Pour cooking grease into a container and throw away when it is solidified. Never pour grease down your sink. • Lint..'. Lint from automatic laundry "lint catchers" should be disposed of in the trash. Neverwash lint down the drain. • Rags and Scouring Pads ... Rags and scouring pads should be disposed of in the trash. Never let them go down - the drain. Never flush them down the toilet. Strings, nylon reinforcing and other particles from these items may wrap around the aspirator shaft and hamper its operation. . "Disposable" Diapers ... All diapers can be rinsed out in the toilet. But never flush regular or "disposable" diapers down the toilet. • Water Softener Backwash ... Water softener backwash should not be rooted through the plant. We suggest that you dispose of this backwash in some other area, such as a drainage ditch, storm sewer or downspout drainage sys- tem. As a last resort, you may route water softener backwash around the plant and into the plant's final discharge line. Do this only when no other disposal area for water softener backwash is available. . • Paints and Thinners ... Paints (oil or latex), paint brush wash water and thinners should never be,poured down drains. • Household Cleaners and Disinfectants ... Never use extremely strong household cleaners and disinfectants, such as Drano, Liquid Plumber or commode tank sani- tizers. We recommend the use of biodegradable detergents when- ever possible to insure plant efficiency and maximize length of time between tank pumping. JtT-CHLOR � TABLET CHLORINATOR ✓ET/NC. MODEL 100 INSTALLATION AND OPERATION GENERAL DESCRIPTION Model 100 JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator is a complete chlorine dispensing system. The Model 100 has a 4'/z" diame- ter inlet and outlet. It is designed to handle the flow of treated effluent from wastewater treatment plants with design flows up to 1500 gallons per day. It can also chlorinate the effluent from septic tanks when installed after a filter bed. The JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator has no moving or elec- trical parts. It uses JET-CHLOR Disinfecting Tablets — not powders or gases. The J ET Chlorinator works by gravity flow alone — chlorine dosage automatically adjusts with increases and decreases in effluent flow. HOW THE CHLORINATOR WORKS The JET-CHLOR Tablet Chlorinator consists of a housing and two tablet feed tubes. The chlorinator is installed directly in the ground on the plant's discharge line so the plant discharge flows through it. Feed tubes and a chlorine con- tact channel control the direction of flow within the chlorinator. Slow -dissolving JET-CHLOR Tablets at the bottom of the feed tubes are immersed in the effluent. They dissolve evenly, slowly releasing active chlorine. The rate at which the tablets dissolve is regulated automatically by the liquid height and by varying the amount of tablets in contact with the effluent. When the flow of effluent increases, the liquid level in the housing rises, covering more tablets and releasing more chlorine. When the flow decreases, the liquid goes down. As a result, fewer chlorine tablets are immersed and less chlo- rine is released. In this way, the rate at which the chlorine tablets dissolve is continuously adjusted to the effluent flow.

A 6" deep compacted sand pad or concrete pad should be installed at the bottom of the chlorinator excavation to prevent uneven settling of the chlorinator. The pad must be absolutely level. Check the excavation size and depth. The chlorinator inlet must line up with or be slightly lowerthan the treatment plant outlet. 27 v,>= 31 1H' f INLET OUTLET z v.- 3 viu INSTALLATION INLET AND OUTLET CONNECTION The chlorinator has amolded-in arrow on its side to show the correct direction of flow. Make sure the arrow points in the direction of flow and that the chlorinator is level or slightly sloping toward the outlet when installed. If the chlorinator is installed backwards or is not; level, effluent will. stand in the bottom. This condition will result in v. hiorinatlon and excessive use of JET-CHLOR Tablets. Connect the inlet and outlet lines as follows: 1. Connect inlet end of chlorinator to outlet end of treatment plant with 4" diameter Schedule 40 PVC Pipe. 2. Connect outletend of chlorinator to 4" diameter Schedule 40 PVC Pipe. 3. Seal inlet and outlet connections,with waterproof mastic or caulking compound. RISERS (Optional) The chlorinator access cover must be at least 2" above grade. If it is not, risers are needed. One riser will raise the chlorinator top 12". Chlorinator risers are available from Jet Dealers. These can be easily attached as follows: 1. Remove chlorinator cover. 2. Remove two sheet metal screws in side of riser 3. Place riser on top of chlorinator body and press down until riser snaps in place. Line up two holes wherescrews were removed with slots at top of chlorinator body. 4. Install screws in riser holes to join it to chlorinator body. 5. If ground water seepage is going to be a problem, apply a sealing compound to the seam between the chlorinator body and the riser before backfilling. 6. If necessary, an additional riser can be installed. No more than a total of 2 risers should be used. More than 2 risers will make feed tubes too difficult to reach for servicing_ 7. Snap cover removed from chlorinator top onto top of riser. LEVEL CHECK A BACKFILLING Before backfilling, heck to be sure chlorinator is level or sloping slightly toward the outlet. This can be done by checking the inlet and outlet lines and the top of the chlorina- tor with a level. The level can also be checked by removing the feed tubes and pouring water into the chlorinator. The water will drain out of the chlorinator if it has been set properly. If the water does not drain, reposition the chlorina- tor so it does. Caret, jackfill so the chlorinator's position is not changed. After backfilling is complete, make sure chlorinator top is at least 2" above the grade line. Also,,the grade should slope down, away from the top. This prevents surface water from entering the chlorinator. OPERATION JET-CHLOR TABLETS JET-CHLOR Tablets were developed especially for use in JET-CHLOR Chlorinators and we recommend their use. JET- CHLOR Tablets dissolve slowly, evenly, and completely — will not "wick" or dissolve prematurely. They provide fast, complete bacteria killing power and inhibit bacteria regrowth at the same time. Their convenience, efficiency and dependability is unsurpassed. Your JET-CHLOR Dealer can provide you with tablets for refilling the chlorinator yourself, and, in many areas, he can offer you a complete refilling service. Write Jet Inc. for the name of your local dealer. FILLING FEED TUBES We recommend you only use JET-CHLOR Tablets in this chlorinator. Before handling JET-CHLOR Tablets read the container label and the "Danger" section below. To fill the chlorinator, remove the top and tubes from the housing. Fill the tubes as follows: 1. Remove caps and rinse tubes clean with water. 2. Fill each tube to top, one tablet at atime. Each tube holds approximately 34 JET-CHLOR Tablets. 3. Tablets must lie flat, or tubes will clog and prevent proper feeding of chlorine. 4. Replace caps and install tubes in housing with slotted ends down. Tubes must rest in channel in floor of housing. 5. See JET-CHLOR container label for additional instructions. DANGER KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN The product is highly corrosive, causes skin and eye dam- age, and may be fatal if swallowed. Do not get into eyes, on skin or on clothing. Wear goggles or face shield and rubber gloves when handling tablets or working with the chlorina- tor. Irritating to nose and throat. Avoid breathing dust. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. It is a strong oxidizing agent and should be mixed only with water. Contamination may cause fire! If swallowed, feed bread soaked in milk followed by olive oil or cooking oil. Call a physician immediately. If on skin: brush off excess chemical and flush skin with cold water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, get medical attention. It is a violation of federal law to use JET-CHLOR in a manner inconsistent with the label on the JET-CHLOR container. LOCKING CHLORINATOR JET's Tablet Chlorinator is equipped with a lock bar to pre- vent access by children or other unauthorized people. The lock bar is easily installed by sliding it through the slots provided in the cover and the chlorinator housing. Risers also have slots to accept the lock bar. Secure the lock bar with a padlock with a %" diame,.. Padlocks are not supplied with the basic chlorinator but are available on separate order from Jet. These all -brass keyed -alike pad- locks are. available from Jet Dealers. TESTING CHLORINE RESIDUAL The JET Tablet Chlorinator is designed to provide proper chlorination for the flow from an individual home wastewater treatment system. However, to make sure the chlorinator is operating properly, the chlorine residual in the final effluent at the discharge point should be checked after the system is in operation. The term "chlorine residual" means the amount of chlorine left in the effluent; it is proof that all oxidizable substances have been destroyed with chlorine to spare. The chlorinator should be in operation at least one hour before testing. A test kit is needed to check chlorine residual. Chlorine residual test kits are available from Jet Inc. or your dealer. Easy -to -follow instructions are included in Jet's kit. Nor- mally a 1-ppm (parts per million) residual is considered ade- quate, but local conditions and codes vary, so check with the health department to see how much residual is required in your area. MAINTENANCE Before restocking the chlorinatorwith JET-CHLOR Tablets, check the tubes and housing to see if cleaning is needed. Residue and solids which accumulate on or in the tubes must be removed by rubbing or gently scraping with a stiff brush or gloved hand. CAUTION: Wear goggles or face shield and rubber gloves when handling JET-CHLOR Tablets orwork- ing with the chlorinator. Clean out any dirt accumulation in the housing. It should be minimal because of the smooth inside surface. Dirt can usually be flushed out easily with a hose. This causes a surge of liquid through the chlorinator which carries out any accumulated solids. REFILLING THE FEE® TUBES CAUTION: Read the "Filling Feed Tubes" section and the "Danger" notice that follows it before refilling the feed tubes. Always wear goggles or face shield and rubber gloves when handling JET-CHLOR Tablets or working with the chlorinator. Tablets in a fully loaded chlorinator will last the average four -person family six months. The following table shows normal refilling periods for chlorinators serving larger or smaller families.

( His phone number is 255-0061 and he said he would be happy to talk with you.) Before I outline his response, let me reiterate the conditions which you and the NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources have set out for those of us who own property in Riverbend and have septic systems. Please clarify if I am incorrect about these details. In our conversation you told me that septic systems on our street will be checked for water quality once a year for the next three years. After that time, the systems will be checked by you or by us on a monthly basis. It is the desire of the office in Raleigh that we petition to tie into the county sewage system. It was your understanding that the county system was already in place in Botany Woods and that we could petition to have our septics tied into that system. According to David: 1 There is no sewage system available in Botany Woods. In order for us to be on a county system, the whole development, Botany Woods and Riverbend, would need to be annexed. It is not likely that that will happen because of the expense of providing sewer to this area. 2 The closest tie in is on the other side — the east side of the Swannanoa. According to David it would be impossible for an individual to accomplish that connection. 3 Essentially, even if we had a major contingency of homeowners contributing to a tie-in, it would still be cost prohibitive. Torun pipe across the river would cost —on average - $75-$100 per foot plus $3500-$4000 per manhole. 4 Additionally, we would have to acquire an easement from the landowner on whose property the system now lies. 5 For us to proceed, he recommended that we get an engineer to study the feasibility and create a plan. 6 Property owners on Riverbend, (probably close to half of the houses are rental and at least one fourth already have systems with private leech fields) would have to agree to contribute approximately $5000 to the project just to get started. 7 We would need to contact the Army Corps of Engineers for approval. 8 Once we have a plan, an easement, approval of the Army Corp, recommendations of engineers, we would then have to submit to Metropolitan Sewage System for approval. As you can see, the few of us whose sewage needs are in question, have a gargantuan and costly task ahead of us and I am not at all sure we can afford to pursue this solution. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I will circulate this information to thEANWPatrizzios and to the Binkelmans.

Sullins, Director Division of Water Quality December 10, 2007 John and Suzanne Pruett 1 Riverbend Drive Asheville, North Carolina 28803 Subject: Wastewater Treatment System Options - Recommendation Dear Mr. And Mrs. Pruett: This letter is offered as additional recommendation to explore an alternative on -site wastewater treatment system for your residence. Discussions held between Asheville regional office staff from the Divisions of Water Quality and Environmental Health and the Buncombe County Health Center have led to this communication. DWQ recommends the completion and submittal of an Application Improvement Permit/Construction Authorization with the Buncombe County Health Center for a new septic system at your residence (see enclosed). Visual evaluation of your property seems to indicate that it may be possible to install a septic tank with a pump system and nitrification field. Submittal of the application, along with the applicable fee, will provide the opportunity for Buncombe County Environmental Health staff to evaluate the soil and site conditions on your property and make a determination as to wastewater disposal system options for your home. If approved, construction of anew septic system would allow you to discontinue use of the current jet -aeration wastewater treatment system and apply to rescind the associated NPDES permit. Upon receiving this letter, it is suggested you contact Ken Castelloe of the Buncombe County Environmental Health Center at phone number 828-250-6900 for further explanation regarding the permitting possibilities and process. Please contact me at the phone number below, if you have any questions or concerns in this matter that I might assist you with.

Pruett 1 Riverbend Drive Asheville, North Carolina 28805 Dear Mr. Pruett: Subject: Notice of Violation NOV-2006-PC-0117 Failure to Renew NPDES Permit and Failure to Monitor Jet Aeration System NPDES Permit # NCO085464 Buncombe County On March 9, 2006, Janet Cantwell of the Division of Water Quality inspected the jet -aeration wastewater treatment facility serving your residence. An examination of the system found all components to be in good working order, however, no prior monitoring of the effluent has occurred. Part I A.1 of the facility's NPDES permit requires annual monitoring of the effluent. Failure to do so is a violation of..this condition. In addition, the NPDES permit expired December 31, 2005. To date no record of an application for its renewal exists with the Division of Water Quality. This is a violation of the condition contained in Part II B.10 of the NPDES permit which requires that an application for its renewal be on file with the Division of Water Quality at least 180 days prior to its expiration. To achieve compliance with all conditions and limits in the NPDES permit, the following must be implemented: 1. An application for renewal of the NPDES permit must be submitted to the Division of Water Quality. An application is enclosed for your use. 2. Samples of the effluent should be collected and analyzed for those parameters listed in Part I A.1 of your permit. There are local commercial laboratories in the area that can analyze these samples. As a suggestion, your best opportunities for obtaining samples of the effluent will occur in the early morning or evening hours after meals and showers have been completed. As Ms. Cantwell noted in her inspection, the outlet to the outfall line was covered when the stream bank was rip - rapped after fall 2004's hurricanes. As she suggested, since additional fill is to be brought in, the existing outfall line can be ,cut where it is exposed and sufficient line attached from this point on to the Swannanoa River to allow access to the outlet for sampling. If you should have any questions or concerns, please contact Janet Cantwell at 828-296-4500. Sincerely, T7geC.
