NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF

Subject: Renewal of NPDES Permit NCI%_ 873-
HIGI RESIDENCE
BUNCOMBE County
The subject permit expires on September 30, 2000. North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC
2H.0105(e)) requires that an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the
current permit.
To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package must be sent to the Division postmarked no later than
April 3, 2000. Failure to request renewal of the permit by this date will result in a civil assessment of at least
$250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
If any wastewater discharge will occur after September 30, 2000 (or if continuation of the permit is
desired), the current permit must be renewed. Operation of wastewater treatment works or continuation of
discharge after September 30, 2000 would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and could result in
assessment of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If all wastewater discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this permit, contact Robert
Farmer of the Division's Compliance Enforcement Unit at [phone], extension 531. You may also contact
the Asheville Regional Office at [phone] to begin the rescission process.
Use the enclosed checklist to complete your renewal package. The checklist identifies the items you must
submit with the permit renewal application. If you have any questions, please contact me. My telephone
number, fax number and e-mail address are listed at the bottom of this page.

IDo you have a list or a way to show who has a permit for a jet aeration system?
None.
IWill you be sending the 3 mentioned above or others a letter asking for renewal?
Susan and I have discussed those homes briefly. We'd like to switch them to coverage under
NCG550000. Dave & Forrest were always against it, but they are no longer in the equation. The
monitoring requirements for those permits are essentially the same as those for NCG55, and it seems
unreasonable to leave those 4 systems alone with individual permits.
The text in NCG550000 is worth mentioning:
Part I. C. (Applicability)
This permit is applicable to the following types of discharges:
Wastewater from single family residence treatment facilities at flows not exceeding 1000 gallons per day.
2. Wastewater from other similar domestic treatment facilities not exceeding 1000 gallons per day, as decided by the
Division.
Nothing in the existing permit precludes Jet -Aire systems from being covered by NCG550000.
You should also talk to Larry Frost. A while back he discovered MANY more "Jet -Aire" systems in
the ARO's territory that were never permitted. At that time, a decision was made NOT to permit them
due to resource constraints.
The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting ready to send Patrizio, Pruet, and Binkelman NOVs for
not renewing and not sampling, and Drolen an NOV for using a system without the blower (he is
not living there at the time, but he is there during the day working on fixing up the house and
using the bathrooms while he's there).
That sounds fine. If they request renewal, let's switch them to coverage under NCG55. The issue of
the other Jet -Aire sites can be revisited after these are resolved.

NPDES permits: single family residence / Je -ation System
Subject: NPDES permits: single family residence / Jet Aeration System
From: Janet Cantwell <[e-mail]>

To: Charles Weaver <[e-mail]>
Hi Charles: I noticed that you were the reviewer for several NPDES "Jet -Aire" permits for "single
family" facilities in Buncombe County which I have inspected. There was only one which showed up
on Bims as having a current/renewed permit, and that one is Thomas Drolen (NC0085341)
(originally owned by Crystal Madden). (The blower for Drolen's system was washed away in the
flooding of September 2004).
BIMS shows these as having expired:
Patrizio: _ � NCO085448
Pruet: NCO085464
Binkelman: NCO085456
There were other homes on that street which I'm sure have the same system, but there are no records
of them here in the Asheville Regional Office. I found another one in the files: Marilyn Higi:
NC0038733.
Do you have a list or a way to show who has a permit for a jet aeration system?
Will you be sending the 3 mentioned above or others a letter asking for renewal?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting ready to send Patrizio, Pruet, and Binkelman NOVs for not
renewing and not sampling, and Drolen an NOV for using a system without the blower (he is not
living there at the time, but he is there during the day working on fixing up the house and using the
bathrooms while he's there).
