VAN DER VAART Secrelaly S. JAY ZIMMERMAN Director Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO060283 Ridgeview Acres Mobile Home Park WWTP, Class l Off Dryman Mtn. Rd., 5 Impala Trail, west of Emma Buncombe County The Division of Water Resources (the Division) hereby issues the attached NPDES permit for the subject facility. We issue this permit 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 October 15, 2007, or as subsequently amended. Changes for Renewal. The Division understands that you have made no significant changes to your treatment processes. We have therefore made only minimal changes to your permit by updating your permit format and site map. However, please note that electronic reporting of Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) is now required. Implementing Electronic Discharge Monitoring; Reports (eDMRs). Please be advised that the Division has implemented an electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) program, in accord with pending requirements by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We include the details to implement the eDMR program in thisl permit [see Section A. (2.)]. Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all DMRs and specify that, if North Carolina does not establish a program to receive such submittals, Permittees must then submit eDMRs directly to EPA. For more information on eDMRs, registering for eDMR submittal; and obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit DWR's webpage: http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/Wq/admin/bog/iptVedmr.

(2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia duhia at an effluent concentration of 90%. . The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August & November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and T1P3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NCDEQ / DWR / Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the montli/year of the reportwith the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls,. shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. Page 4 of 6 Permit NCO060283 A. (3.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING - DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS [G.S. 143-21-5.1(b)] 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).

Page 6 of 6 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 DU 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 occurin 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, lackof 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.

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 (j) and 15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(11)] Interference Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(14)] Pass Through A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)] Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization. This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T .0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)] "Significant Industrial User" or "SIU" An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(33)]: 1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary, noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or 2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS and ammonia; or 3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or 4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options; 5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a Significant Industrial User (SIU); or 6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may 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)]: 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 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. 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.

Dear Mr. McMinn: This is to inform you that a review of your toxicity self -monitoring report form for the month of November 2012 indicates a violation of the toxicitylimitation specified in your NPDES Permit. You should take whatever remedial actions are necessary to eliminate the conditions causing the effluent toxicity violation(s). Your efforts may include conducting a Toxicity Reduction Evaluation (TRE), a site -specific study designed to identify the causative agents of effluent toxicity, isolate the sources of toxicity, evaluate the effectiveness of toxicity control. options, and confirm reductions in effluent toxicity. Please be aware that North Carolina General Statutes provide for assessment of civil penalties for violations of NPDES permit limitations and requirements. The reverse side of this Notice contains important information concerning your Whole Effluent Toxicity Monitoring and Reporting Requirements;' Please note appropriate mailing addresses for submitting your Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) and Aquatic Toxicity (AT) Test Forms. We encourage you to review this information; if it would be helpful to discuss this. situation or possible solutions to resolve effluent toxicity noncompliance, please contact Mr. John Giorgino with this office at (919) 743- 8441.

Please take time to review this information. The items below do not address or include all the toxicity testing and reporting requirements contained in your NPDES permit. If you should have any questions about your toxicity testing requirement, please contact Mr. John Giorgino with the Aquatic Toxicology Unit at (919) 743-8401 or another Unit representative at the same number. ➢ The p_ermittee is responsible for ensuring that toxicity testing is conducted according to the permit requirement and that toxicity report forms are appropriately filed. The reporting of whole effluent toxicity testing data is a dual requirement. All toxicity test results must be entered (with the appropriate parameter code) on your monthly Discharge Monitoring Report which is submitted to: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Central Files 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 IN ADDITION Toxicity test data (original "AT" form) must be submitted to the following address: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 ➢ Toxicity test results shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period (eg, January test result is due by the end of February). ➢ Toxicity test condition language contained in your NPDES permit may require use of multiple concentration toxicity testing upon failure of any single quarterly toxicity test. If the initial pass/fail test fails or if the chronic value is lower than the permit limit, then at least two multiple concentration toxicity tests (one per month) will be conducted over the following two months. As many analyses as can be completed will be accepted. If your NPDES permit does not require use of multiple concentration toxicity testing upon failure of any single quarterly test, you may choose to conduct either single concentration toxicity testing or multiple concentration toxicity testing per the Division's WET enforcement initiatives effective.July 1, 1999. Follow-up multiple concentration toxicity testing will influence the Division's enforcement response. ➢ Toxicity testing months are specified by the NPDES Permit, except for NPDES Permits which contain episodic toxicity monitoring requirements (eg, if the testing months specified in your NPDES permit are March, June, September, and December, then toxicity testing must be conducted during these months). ➢ If your NPDES Permit specifies episodic monitoring and your facility does not have a discharge from January 1-June 30, then:you must provide written notification to the Environmental Sciences Section by June 30 that a discharge did not occur during the first six months of the calendar year. ➢ If you receive notification from your contract laboratory that a test was invalidated, you should immediately notify the Environmental Sciences Section at (919) 743-8401 and provide written documentation indicating why the test was invalidated and the date when follow-up testing will occur. ➢ If your facility is required to conduct toxicity testing during a month in which no discharge occurs, you should complete the information block located at the top of the AT form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county and the month/year of the subject report. You should als!6'yrite "No Flow" on the AT form, sign the form and submit following normal procedures. ➢ The Aquatic Toxicity Test forms shall be signed by the facility's Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC) except for facilities which have not received a facility classification. In these cases, a duly authorized facility representative must sign the AT form. The AT form must also be signed by the performing lab supervisor. ➢ To determine if your AT test forms were received on time by the Division of Water Quality, you may consider submitting your tokicity test results certified mail, return receipt requested to the Environmental Sciences Section.

Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) monitoring is required only if chlorine is used by the facility. Because of difficulty quantifying TRC in a wastewater matrix, the Division will consider all values reported by a North Carolina -certified test method below 50µg/L to be compliant with his permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to report all values reported above the test -method minimum detection level, even if these levels fall below 50µg/L. 3. The daily average dissolved oxygen effluent concentration shall not fall below 5.0 mg/L. 4. Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) Testing, Chronic [ceriodaphnia dubia] Pass/Fail at 90%: February, May, August & November [see A. (2.)]. Conditions: The Permittee shall discharge no- floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts. Permit NCO060283 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 90%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August & November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. PDES 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 (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 Version 1012912010 PDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 18 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. tinuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Daily Sampling Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).

I talked to Trevor McMinn, ORC for Ridgeview Acres (NC0060383 in Buncombe County) and sent him the DRAFT permit (since the owner is in Florida now). Permit Renewal Recommendation: The ARO recommends the renewal of this DRAFT permit.. NC0086223 Adventure Village: Trevor and I also discussed another. one of his facilities, Adventure Village (see attached info) in Transylvania County. I told him that Keith has this facility now. Keith and I discussed this also. Adventure Village does NOT have very much flow (300 gallons per day on average) and is seasonal. It is very hard to catch the plant discharging to collect weekly samples. When Trevor does get a weekly oil and grease sample, the lab that he uses (PACE) sends the sample out to another lab in Charlotte to be analyzed. The glass container often breaks, requiring the operator to try to collect another sample before the end of that week (for weekly samples) . This really puts the ORC in a very difficult position. Since the development never really took off and no restaurant was ever built, oil & grease and MBAS should be taken out of the permit (as recommended in my staff report below). I know that y'all are four staff members short, however the permittee has had their renewal and request for these changes in Raleigh about a year now. PLEASE, if there is any way that you can see getting around to this renewal and reissuance in the very near future, that would really be great! Thanks for all of you help!

However, this permit reflects a compromise, to monitor Temperature 2/Week, the same frequency as your Total Residual Chlorine (TRC). The Division understands that you have made no significant alterations to your treatment facilities except to add Dechlorination (AtoC permit granted June 7, 2010). Based on your renewal application received March 31, 2010, we have updated your facility map, your address, and treatment system description (see Supplement to Cover Sheet), and added parameter codes to the effluent monitoring page to facilitate laboratory analysis [see Section, A. (1.)], consistent with NPDES permits statewide. Concurrent with this notification, the Division will solicit public comment on this draft by publishing a notice in newspapers having circulation in the general Buncombe County area, as required by the NPDES Program. Please provide your comments, if any, to me via email Doe.corporon@ncdenr.gov], or write to my attention care of DENR / DWQ / NPDES Program no later than February 10, 2011. Following the mandatory 30-day public comment period, the Division will review all pertinent comments and take appropriate action prior to issuing your NPDES permit final. If you have questions concerning this draft, please e- mail me or call my direct line (919) 807-6394. Respectfully, Joe R. Corporon, L.G.

[DWQ imposed Daily monitoring and WET testing due to system complexity and discharge under zero - ow receiving -stream conditions.] Treatment Facility: Application describes treatment system as "15 separate septic tanks and subsurface sand filters (one tank/sand filter for every two mobile homes" [30 total] — one outfall. Design flow 0.074 MGD. Google Maps shows currently —50 trailers onsite, but only the southern -most discharge to this system; discharge low/intermittent therefore difficult to document [Wanda Frazier (ARO), 24Feb2011]. BIMS Downloads and Compliance Review Summary: • BIMS DMR Reports - Violations record (2007-2010) indicate only one Notice of Violation (NOV) for "late or missing DMR" for November 2009. No other NOVs; no penalty assessments. • TOX data Summary — WET history indicates "H" [active, but not discharging] for most of the previous permit cycle; 2010 = "pass" quarterly tests in May, August and November (see attached report) — no changes recommended. • Updated map for renewal (corrected Lat/Long); added parameter codes to Effluent Table, A. (L). • Changes to the Effluent Page - This Class II discharge has been inactive (no flow) for most of the previous permit cycle (owner name -change 14Apr2010). Effluent data fall within the bounds of the permit for — the last 1/2 of 2010. The Permittee has requested DWQ to relax monitoring for Temperature from Daily to Weekly for renewal, and the ARO has raised no objections. However, because the treatment system is complex, the compliance history is short, and because this facility discharges under zero -flow receiving -stream conditions, this renewal will compromise — lower T° monitoring from Daily to 2/Week — the same as TRC (currently the 2nd most frequent). w • Frazier, Wanda From: Frazier, Wanda 4)P-* Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2010 3:49 PM To: Corporon, Joe Cc: Edwards, Roger Subject: permit renewal NCO060283 Ridgeview Acres MHP Bunc.

Date issued: 11-1-2005 Expiration date: 10-31-2010 I met with the contract operator, Trevor McMinn and the owner, Parks Banks, and did a compliance evaluation inspection at this facility on 3-25-10. Everything looks good. Attached is that inspection report and the facility cover page. Here's what I would suggest for the draft permit: > WWTP location -- change to: 5 Impala Trail, west of Emma Supplement to permit cover page: see attachment Continue to operate: 0.0078 MGD WWTP with: 15 separate septic tanks & dual subsurface sand filter systems (one septic tank and two stone, gravel and filter sand filtration trenches for every two mobile homes); tablet chlorinator (located under the black metal cover at the first mailbox on the right); chlorine contact chamber (located under the street); and tablet dechlorinator, located at the step cascade re -aeration on the side of the creek bank. Note: Repairs to the septic tanks & subsurface sand filters were made the week of 3-22-10. Two blockages were located and unstopped in two of the individual systems. In addition, two French drains which intercepted high groundwater, were removed from over the top of these individual systems. Steve Jones, Bunc. Co. Hlth. Dept. (250-5023) visited the site on 3-19-10 and notified DWQ. Rain occurred for several days during the repairs, resulting in a discharge of groundwater collected in the French drains (as noted in the inspection report.) Note: There has never been a discharge of wastewater from this system, since it was installed. The ARO's previous staff report indicated this, as do the previous inspections. Frequency: The permittee is requesting that temperature monitoring be reduced to weekly, to coincide with weekly ORC visits. This seems reasonable and the ARO agrees with this modification. ARO recommends renewal of this permit. Is this email sufficient?

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodapbnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 90%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodapbnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August & November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. (continued on next page) Pen -nit N00060283 A. (2.) (continued) If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit . limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase H Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the. pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWQ /Environmental Sciences Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring.

It consists of 15 separate septic tanks & dual subsurface sand filter systems (one septic tank and two stone, gravel and filter sand filtration trenches for every two mobile homes); tablet chlorinator (located under the black metal cover at the first mailbox on the right); chlorine contact chamber (located under the street); and dechlorination tablets located at the step cascade re -aeration. Engineering drawings by Ken Pankow (rev. 8/22/85) were submitted for reference. The engineering plan's lot numbers (1-30) do not correspond to the house numbers, which are the newer 911 numbering system. The sign at the MHP entrance indicates the lower lots to be numbers 25-49 (total of 30). This sign should probably be removed to prevent confusion. 3* The 24 mobile homes on the upper level have individual septic tanks / conventional systems. Collection System: Consists of 4-inch pvc gravity sewer lines which run from the mobile homes to septic the individual septic tanks. There are no pump stations or force mains. PERMIT / INSPECTION / LOG: A review of the files indicates that the last compliance evaluation inspection was conducted on 6-24-2008 by Janet Cantwell. The permit expires on 10-31-2010. Please request a permit renewal 6 months prior to expiration (by April 30, 2010). A renewal notice will be mailed as a reminder. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE / EFFLUENT / SUMMARY: Maintenance and repairs were made to some of the septic tanks & subsurface sand filters during the week of 3-22-10. Two blockages were located and unstopped in the individual systems. In addition, two French drains were located and removed from over the top of these individual systems. Several septic tank clean -outs were located and re-established above ground for easy access. Mr. Steve Jones, of the Buncombe County Health Department, visited the site on 3-19-10 and notified DWQ ARO. Mr. Trevor McMinn, ORC, assisted in the inspection and appears to be operating and maintaining the system very well. The effluent appeared to be in compliance with permit limits.

There was no flow at the time of inspection. Mark Jones/ORC for Ridgeview accompanied me during the inspection and stated he has not seen a flow since he took over the system in April 2005. Mr. Jones and I walked along each home space and did not see any evidence of ponding or any apparent problems with the septic tanks or subsurface systems at this time. Mr. Jones and I were unable to locate the effluent discharge pipe for the system. He stated he has walked in the stream looking for the discharge pipe but has yet to find it. He intends to dye the system soon in hopes of locating the pipe. I observed that residents of the park have been disposing of their yard waste/grass clippings and brush/branches over the bank next to the creek near the entrance to the park. This has covered part of the creek next to the culvert. Over the years this may have covered up the effluent discharge pipe at the creek. Please ensure that the residents dispose of their yard trash at a permitted landfill. For your own liability, the chlorine contact chamber should be secured.

As for closing off the system, I don't think that is a good idea because it does, as you say, force the system to function even more as a non -discharge system (subsurface disposal) and would likely need approval by the local health dept. Why did we never force this discharge to go througlyf he zero flow policy of having to justify the continuance of its "discharge" without having to meet 5 and 2?

Ridgeview Acres MHP has an existing wwtp composed of 15 individual septic tank, subsurface sand filter systems (one per two mobile homes) discharging to a common collection line and tablet chlorination system with pipe discharge to what is a zero flow stream. We haven't pushed the extension of this outfall to the main branch because of the difficulty (encroachment approval to cross under a state road as well as easement requirements to cross someone else's property) was thought to be a hardship considering that routine inspections as well as dmr reports (checked daily) have never observed a discharge. Question #1 - Given the history of never discharging, the permittee believes that daily checks should be reduced to a frequency of once per month (we should be able to work something out here although I'm thinking that weekly or two per month would be more agreeable ) .......... what can you support? Question #2 - The permittee's engineer is recommending that the common collection line the septic tank systems discharge to should be modified by placing a valve and observation port in the collection line before the chlorine contact tank. The valve would be closed unless or until routine observations showed that the line was holding treated wastewater, at which time it would be gradually Max Haner -- 1 -- Wed, 24 Mar 1999 09:12:50 • released thru the chlorine system. I need your thoughts on this- My thoughts are that allowing the system to be designed and to function as a non -discharge system is different from allowing a modification which forces it to function as a non discharge system, but on the other hand - what's the problems here and why not ?

Box 387 Barnardsville, NC 28709 Dear Mrs. Banks: in 1984, fifteen sewage disposal systems for the subject mobile home park were installed in accordance 1vith my plans. 'Ibese were designed as Muted sand filter trench systems witha common collection system which could discharge to a stream; however, it was expected that there would be little or no discharge. The reason for this is that the systems tend to act like sand line trench drainfields. After the sand has treated the septic tank effluent, it passes into the surrounding soil rather than passing into the collection pipes at the bottom of the sand f hers. For the past fifteen years, these systems have been chocked for discharge and no discharge has ever been noted on the required reports. At prewM I understandtbat the systems are checked daily. Based on the Past performance of these systems, it is highly unlikely that there will ever be any discharge. I recommend the foIlowing: L You request in writing of the Director of the Division of Environmental Managcm nt NCUENR that checks for discharge be reduced, With minor changes, I rocommend that the checks be made on a monthly basis, 2. I recommend that a valve be installed in the collection line after the last sand filter and before the chlorination unit. Tikis valve would always be closed unless there is indication that the sand filters are no longer capable of operating as sand line trench drainfrelds. 3. An inspection port should be installed just before the newly installed valve. This inspection portamild wrisist of a 4" tee irk the collection line with 4"riser with a plug at the ground surface. This inspection port would be used to determine if the valve is holding back any treated effluent. A srnall muount of effluent in the inspection port would bean early indication that discharge may be necessary. This inspection port could be constructed with a Boat attached to a small rod, which extends through a small hole in the plug. The length of rod extending through the plug would allow a visual indication of effluent Icvel at all tunes. 4. If the level of effluent in the inspection port rose to near the ground level, this would be an indication that discharge would likely be necessary. S. Before opening of the valve to allow discharge, the discharge unit would be carefully inspected to insure that it would operate as intended. Initial discharge would be a controlled slow discharge with testing of the effluent to insure the intended quality. Daily inspections would again be performed. Sand linedtrench drainlields are not new. They have been used and extensively tested in North Carolina. In several other states, this type of system is permitted on a regular basis. At the present tune, I am working frith Dr. Robert Rubin of NC State to use this type of system for the elimination of straight piping where conditions are similar. The experience gained with these systems should be of value in that work Respectfully submitted, Kenneth O Pankow, PE cc: Dr. Robert Rubin MAR-17-99 WED 101 PANKOW ENGINEERING CO 8 274 4455 P.01 PANKOW ENGINEERING COMPANY CIVIL ENGINEERING AND LAND SURVEI%lNG 1 278 HENDERSONVILLE ROAD ASHEVILLE NC 28803 (828) 27"2 19 PHONE (828) 274-4455 FAx FAX Date: 3 7 �' No. of pages including ties sheet: �- r 10. 1 D vtf From: } X A A Subject: ,�� V f F-1 0-09JLF- 4J Pt\ f<_ o N4tzAl-r:�> Please cal Pat McCrory Governor NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources John E.

In the course of this very wet winter the sand filters backed and began flowing excess ground water and gray water (after septic solids removal) into an open ditch. This was brought to our attention by a Buncombe County Health Inspector. Immediately after this notification the septic tanks were pumped to ensure a no flow situation. As soon as a locate was performed on site personnel dug up and removed the French Drains. An exploratory dig found the sand in the filters to be in good shape but effluent pipes were found crushed in two locations. The pipes were immediately replaced. During this entire operation a pump truck kept these locations from flowing. The owner acted swiftly to get the collection system back in compliance and went to considerable expense to do so. Please consider both the speed of response and expense the owner incurred in any enforcement action. Your understanding in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

It consists of 15 separate septic tanks & dual subsurface sand filter systems (one septic tank and two stone, gravel and filter sand filtration trenches for every two mobile homes); tablet chlorinator (located under the black metal cover at the first mailbox on the right); chlorine contact chamber (located under the street); and dechlorination tablets located at the step cascade re -aeration. Engineering drawings by Ken Pankow (rev. 8/22/85) are on file for reference. The lot numbers (1-30) do not correspond to the house numbers (which are the newer 911 numbering system). The sign at the MHP entrance indicates the lower lots to be numbers 25-54 (total of 30). The 24 mobile homes on the upper level have individual septic tanks / conventional systems. Note: Repairs to the septic tanks & subsurface sand filters were made the week of 3-22-10. Two blockages were located and unstopped in two of the individual systems. In addition, two French drains which intercepted high groundwater were found and removed from over the top of these individual systems. Steve Jones, Bunc. Co. Hlth. Dept. visited the site on 3-19-10 and notified DWQ. COLLECTION SYSTEM: The collection system consists of 4-inch pvc gravity sewer from the 30 mobile homes to the 15 individual septic tanks. There are no pump stations or force mains. Page: 2 Michael F. Easley, Governor ( William G. Ross Jr., Secretary ' lfla";Department of Environment and Natural Resources Coleen H.

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%20SVstems/CollectionSVstemsHome.htmI 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.
