The facility returned to compliance in August 2013. Data provided by the facility indicates much improved ammonia values during July, and a return to compliance in August 2013 ❑ (c) Whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident: ❑ (d) Whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations: The facility had not been assessed any civil penalties during the five years preceding this assessment. ® (e) Whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions: The permittee states payment of the penalty "will prevent implementation of an educational program and chemical storage facilities on site that will prevent future occurrences." No documentation was provided as to how payment would constitute a financial hardship. No details were provided regarding cited programs and chemical storage. The fact that compliance has been reachieved lessens the relevance of this factor.

Dale Owen Adventure Village WWTP ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION DWR Case Number LV-2013-0174 REQUEST FOR ORAL PRESENTATION I hereby request to make an oral presentation before the Environmental Management Commission's Committee On Civil Penalty Remissions in the matter of the case noted above. In making this request, I assert that I understand all of the following statements: • This request will be reviewed by the Chairman of the Environmental Management Commission and may be either granted or denied. • Making a presentation will require the presence of myself and/or my representative during a Committee meeting held in Raleigh, North Carolina. • My presentation will be limited to discussion of issues and information submitted in my original remission request, and because no factual issues are in dispute, my presentation will be limited to five (5) minutes in length. The North Carolina State Bar's Authorized Practice of Law Committee has ruled that the appearance in a representative capacity at quasi-judicial hearings or proceedings is limited to lawyers who are active members of the bar. Proceedings before the Committee on Remissions are quasi-judicial. You should consider how you intend to present your case to the Committee in light of the State Bar's opinion and whether anyone will be speaking in a representative capacity for you or a business or governmental entity. If you or your representative would like to speak before the Committee, you must complete and return this form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this letter. Depending on your status as an individual, corporation, partnership or municipality, the State Bar's Opinion affects how you may proceed with your oral presentation. See www.ncbar.com/ethics, Authorized Practice Advisory Opinion 2006-1 and 2007 Formal Ethics Opinion 3. • If you are an individual or business owner and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before the Committee, then you do not need legal representation before the Committee; however, if you intend on having another individual speak on your behalf regarding the factual situations, such as an expert, engineer or consultant, then you must also be present at the meeting in order to avoid violating the State Bar's Opinion on the unauthorized practice of law. • If you are a corporation, partnership or municipality and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before the Committee, then your representative must consider the recent State Bar's Opinion and could be considered practicing law without a license if he or she is not a licensed attorney. Presentation of facts by non -lawyers is permissible. If you choose to request an oral presentation, please make sure that signatures on the previously submitted Remission Request form and this Oral Presentation Request form are: 1) for individuals and business owners, your own signature and 2) for corporations, partnerships and municipalities, signed by individuals who would not violate the State Bar's Opinion on the unauthorized practice of law. Also, be advised that the Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions may choose not to proceed with hearing your case if the Committee is informed that a potential violation of the statute concerning the authorized practice of law has occurred.

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

The Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee).

Water ouality Regional Operations Asheville Regional Offlce a -z- _ - In regard to NOV-2016-LV-0265 for Adventure Village WWTP (permit #NC0086223) we offer the following explanation: In October 2015 this facility had a high BOD resulting in a daily violation. There was no reoccurrence of the BOD problem for the remainder of the year. A monthly violation for ammonia was also noted in the letter in the amount of 0.01 over the limit. The facility more than complied with its limits in the other 3 weeks of this month. The operator did not carry the average to the second decimal place. The computer rounding to 5.6 mg/L (within limits). The letter from your office reports 5.61 mg/L (monthly average exceeded). While this may be technically true we would like to ask for a common sense approach to any enforcement actions you may consider. We know we have a ammonia problem. Kathy Jimmison of your office was instrumental in providing technical data to help combat the problem. Please allow us the opportunity to fine tune her recommendations and address this problem. The ammonia problem did not reoccur in the remainder of the year 2015. Also the permit allows for a limit of 16.9 mg/L beginning in November? At 5.6 mg/L we have very little room for to respond to these spikes. Your understanding in this matter is greatly appreciated. If I can be of further assistance please don't hesitate to call.

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.

[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)]: 1.

I talked to Trevor McMinn, ORC for Ridgeview Acres (NCO060383 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.. 11 OL0006:-031A►�cl�,vl�n. re V' t!I 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, however1he permittee has had their renewal and request for these changes in Raleigh about a year now. 1 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!

Combined capacity of these 2 plants is 0.035 MGD located at 15 Adventure Ridge Rd, in Brevard, Transylvania County, North Carolina. Sludge management plan: As of 2/23/2010 this facility has never built up enough sludge to waste to the digesters. No sludge has ever been hauled, due to the low flow and loading of this facility. Should business increase and the need for sludge removal becomes apparent it will be wasted to the digesters where it will be stored and thickened for cost effective hauling. Sludge removal will be by truck by Mice's Septic, {828 253 2612) a local pump truck contractor. He will haul the sludge to disposal at the Town of Brevard waste treatment facility. All associated costs of this hauling will be paid by Dale Owen and Adventure Village. Removal and management of this sludge will be done in a timely manner and in the best interests of facility operation and the environment. Notification: This report will be delivered to Adventure Village to the attention of Mr. Dale Owens. Conclusion: The Adventure Village treatment plant is well designed for the existing flow and is a pleasure to operate. Everyone involved at the Adventure Village should be commended for the care and management of this facility and the environment. Certification: I certify under penalty of law that this report is complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge. I further certify that this report has been made available to the users or customers of the named system and that those users have been notified of its availability.

ATC Number 086223 ACA D&D Catfish Resort WW'fP NPDES Permit NCO086223 Transylvania County A letter ofrequest for an Authorization to Construct (ATC) was received March 13, 2000 (wgth. additional information submitted January 26, 2001), by the Division and -final. plans and specifications for this project have been reviewed and found to be satisfactory. Authorization is hereby granted for the,addition of a wastewater, treatment plant at D&D Catfish Resort not to exceed a design flow of 0.020 MGD with discharge into Peter Weaver Creek in the French Broad River Basin. Specifically, this ATC allows the installation of- • Splitter box to split flows between dual path facilities, • Appx. 10,000 gallon total equalization with diffused air and 1/3 hP submersible pumps, • 20,000 gallon dual aeration basins with diffused air, • 4 hopper -type clarifiers (2 per dual train) at appx. 35 ft2 each, with air lift sludge returns and skimmer boxes, • Appx. 10,000 gallon total digester capacity with diffused air, • 422 gallon dual chlorine contact chambers with tablet chlorination, • dual tablet dechlorination, • meter box with effluent ultrasonic flow meter,' • dual blowers rated at 160 cfm*, • standby power*, • all additional piping, valves, control equipment and appurtenances. * NOTE: Plans and specification must be revised to reflect dual blowers rated at 160 cfm. Additionally, standby power with enough capacity to operate main treatment units in case of power outage must be supplied prior to operation of this treatment facility. The wastewater treatment plant area must be fenced to restrict public access and a potable water source must be supplied for maintenance and sampling purposes 1617 MAIL SERVICE CENTER, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27699-1617 - TELEPHONE 919-733-5083/FAX 919-733-0719 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50% RECYCLED/ 10% POST -CONSUMER PAPER VISIT US ON THE WEB AT http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES Mr. Dale Owen Page 2 of 4 Once construction under this ATC has been completed and an Engineer's Certificate has been submitted (and the appropriate regional office notified), the permittee is authorized to operate the treatment units. This Authorization to Construct is issued in accordance with NPDES Permit No. NCO086223 issued November 3, 2000, and shall be subject to revocation unless the wastewater treatment facilities are constructed in accordance with the conditions and limitations specified in the permit. The sludge generated from these treatment facilities must be disposed of in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality. In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities. The Asheville Regional Office, telephone number (828) 251-6208, shall be notified at least forty- eight (48) hours in advance of operation of the installed facilities so that an in -place inspection can be made. Such notification to the regional supervisor shall be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday, excluding State Holidays. Upon classification of the facility by the Certification Commission, the Permittee shall employ a certified water pollution control treatment system operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the water pollution control treatment system. The operator must hold a certificate of the type and grade at least equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the water pollution control treatment system by the Certification Commission. The Permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type and grade to comply with the conditions of Title 15A, Chapter 8G, .0202. The ORC of the facility must visit each Class I facility at least weekly and each Class II, III, and 1V facility at least daily, excluding weekends and holidays, and must properly manage and document daily operation and maintenance of the facility and must comply with all other conditions outlined in Title . 15A, Chapter 8G', .0204:. Once the facility is classified, the Pennittee .must. submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates the operator in responsible charge within: (A) Sixty calendar days prior to wastewater being introduced into a new system or (B) within 120 calendar days of the following, (i) after receiving notification of a change in the classification of the system requiring . the designation of a new ORC and back-up ORC or (ii) a vacancy in the position of ORC or back-up ORC. A copy of the approved plans and specifications shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of the facility. The Operational Agreement between the Permittee and the Environmental Management Commission is incorporated herein by reference and is a condition of this Permit. Noncompliance with the terms of the Operational Agreement shall subject the Permittee to all sanctions provided by G. S. 143-215.6 for violation of or failure to act in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Permit. Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Authorization to Construct may subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Water Quality in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C. The issuance of this Authorization to Construct does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances which may be imposed by other government agencies (local, state, and federal) which have jurisdiction. Upon completion of construction and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received from a professional engineer certifying that the permitted facility has been installed in accordance with the NPDES Permit, this Authorization to Construct and the approved plans and specifications.

Box 1804 Irmo, SC 29063 Dear Mr. Burgin: UV 1 • • NCDENR NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF "ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES January 29, 2001 2 tool Subject: Authorization'!o=!Construct Permit D&D Catfish Resort Permit No. NCO086223 Transylvania County I have reviewed the plans and specifications for the D&D Catfish Resort to be located in Transylvania County. Please excuse the delay in review of the plans. In review of the plans, the following concerns were noted: The permit issued September 3, 2000 was issued directly to Mr. Dale Owen, under the facillity name of D&D Catfish resort. Please confirm if this permit should be issued to Transylvania Evergreen Corporation or Mr. Owen. The Division does have another permit on file for Transylvania Evergreen Corporation, NPDES Permit No. NC0081001, with a discharge to Morgan Mill Creek. This permit expired August 31, 2000 and no renewal application was received. It appears that the contact for this facility is also Mr. Owen. Please inform the Division as to if this permit should be rescinded. The permit for D&D Catfish Resort indicates a monthly average flow of 0.035 MGD (which gs traditionally the average daily design flow). None of the submitted documentation indicates what ADD the proposed plant is designed to treat (or there appears to be differing volumes throughout the calculations). It appears the plant may be designed for 20,000 gpd. If this is the case, the NPDES permit may be modified to reflect a phased flow up to 0.035 MGD. If the total aeration volume is 20,000 gallons, this will not be acceptable detention time to treat 35,000 gpd ADD. Please confirm the average daily design flow for the proposed package pliant. • As stated above, the calculations indicate different volumes (and without the dimensions om the plans they cannot be confirmed). Specifically, the calculations under the title page "D&D Catfish Resort WWTP Calculations" are different from the previous pages. • The specifications submitted appear to be for the sewer collection system, not the package plant itself. Please provide specifications for the package plant. • Please provide dimensions of all components. The calculations provided are helpful, but dimensions as well as capacity of each component should be provided on the plans or in the specifications, which have been stamped and signed. • As an addition to the calculations, please provide the surface area of the clarifier, along with the weir dimension. The plans do not indicate that a weir is in place in the clarifiers. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 919 733-5083, extension 510 (fax) 919 733-0719 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Susan.A.Wilson@ncmail.net N 60 • The plans and specifications should be stamped and signed by a North Carolina registered Professional Engineer. Again, the Division apologizes for the delay in review of the plans and hopes that resolution of the above issues will help expedite the Authorization to Construct permit. Please contact me at (919) 733 - 5083, extension 510, should you have further questions. Sincerely, us an A. Wilson, P.E.

Compare Discharge Point(s) on plans with NPDES Permit application. List of all discharge points: IXr No Change PART II - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Asheville Regional office recommends issuance of the A to C for this project. There are only a couple of recommendations we would like to see incorporated in the final product. Since both eq basins are tied together via a pipe, keep this pipe open and allow the influent to enter one .of the eq basins. Essentially, both separate tanks would operate as one large eq tank. In this way a pump in both tanks would meet the requirement of a dual pump system. The flow can then be pumped to a flow splitter box that.contains adjustable weirs. FAV 0 As an after thought, tie the sludge returns from each of the plants together so that sludge can be moved from one plant to another with just the turn of a valve. The same might can be done for the.clarifiers. The plans do not show the location of the effluent launders, however it may be possible to install a pipe and valve connecting the clarifiers allowing increased carification time if needed especially during low flow conditions.

Additional Comments • Level B Model Analysis used to determine effluent limitations for BOD5, protecting an instream D.O. standard of 6.0 mg/l. • Ammonia limitations based on ammonia toxicity dilution calculations. • Oil & Grease and MBAS monitoring included since a restaurant is planned at the future resort. • Division policy is to include a TRC limit no less stringent than 28 µg/l for new dischargers into Trout streams. • The proposed discharge appears from the Topo map to be inside the Pisgah National Forest boundary; however, since the land is private (called an "inholding"), no regulatory authority exists to restrict land -disturbing activities, except in cases where access to the property during and following construction is gained through national forest land. This does not appear to be the case; highway 64 runs right next to the property. • Chris McGrath of the Nongame and Endangered Species Section (Wildlife Resources) was contacted for any information regarding endangered species in the area. He knew of no federally -listed species, but he checked the Heritage Database for others. The Hellbender salamander is state -listed as a special concern in the area; however, it has been recorded in the French Broad River (not Peter Weaver). This species tends to live in larger rivers rather than small ones. Some rare plants also exist, but not on Peter Weaver Cron the banks of the French Broad.

During the last two years the Campground has had extremely low flow/ business. This low flow caused the solids to be consumed and not replaced. A load of seed (solids) was brought on sight as soon as we were aware of the situation. The plant returned to compliance as of the 6/4/14 sampling. We have not seen the BOD problem return. Ammonia is treated at the plant with sodium bicarbinate. Our low ammonia limit requires heavy dosing of this chemical which can threaten our BOD limit. The return of normal sludge levels seem to help balance these issues. I will recommend continued seeding of the plant to the owner in spring as business returns to the campground. Please be assured that every avenue to return the facility to compliance has being explored and implemented. Your understanding in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

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 10/29/2010 ,ES 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. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge' is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge' concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Dail�Samplin$ 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). DWQ or "the Division" The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. 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). Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the CWA. 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 1012912010 )ES Permit Standard Conditions Page 3 of 18 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 Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe proper!, 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, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions Duty to Comply The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit.

Version 1012912010 DES Permit Standard Conditions Page 7 of 18 2. Proper Operation and Maintenance The Permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance resources necessary to operate the existing facilities at optimum efficiency. The Permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the Permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the Permittee to install and operate backup or auxiliary facilities only when necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit [40 CFR 122.41 (e)]. NOTE: Properly and officially designated operators are fully responsible for all proper operation and maintenance of the facility, and all documentation required thereof, whether acting as a contract operator [subcontractor] or a member of the Permittee's staff. 3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense It shall not be a defense for a Permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this permit [40 CFR 122.41 (c)] 4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities a. Bypass not exceeding limitations [40 CFR 122.41 (m) (2)] The Permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs b. and c. of this section. b. Notice [40 CFR 122.41 (m) (3)] (1) Anticipated bypass. If the Permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and effect of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The Permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part H. E. 6. (24-hour notice). c. Prohibition of Bypass (1) Bypass from the treatment facility is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a Permittee for bypass, unless: (A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (C) The Permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph b. of this section. (2) Bypass from the collection system is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a Permittee for a bypass as provided in any current or future system -wide collection system permit associated with the treatment facility. (3) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse effects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph c. (1) of this section. Upsets a. Effect of an upset [40 CFR 122.41 (n) (2)]:An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph b. of this condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review. Version 1012912010 I ES Permit Standard Conditions Page 8 of 18 b. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset: Any Permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that: (1) An upset occurred and that the Permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset; (2) The Permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and (3) The Permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part H. E. 6. (b) of this permit. (4) The Permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II. B. 2. of this permit. c. Burden of proof [40 CFR 122.41(n) (4)1: The Permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof in any enforcement proceeding. 6. Removed Substances Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and in a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United States. The Permittee shall comply with all existing Federal regulations governing the disposal of sewage sludge.

General information: Facility System Name: Adventure Village Responsible Entity: Dale Owen Person in Charge: Dale Owen Applicable Permit: NPDES # NC0086223 Description of Treatment Process: Two package wastewater treatment plants in a parallel configuration consisting of one steel splitter box, two influent equalization basins { 5000 Gallons ea.}, two steel aeration basins {10200 Gallons ea.}, dual blowers ( Roots 36 URAI w/ 5hp motors), 2 steel clarifiers{5000 Gallons ea), 2 sludge holding basins (5000 Gallons ea.}, 2 tablet chlorinators, 2 chlorine contact tanks {750 Gallons ea.}, 2 tablet de -chlorinators and a V-notch weir attached to an ultrasonic flow meter. Combined capacity of these 2 plants is 0.035 MGD located at Double D`s Catfishing &RV Resort, 129 Israel Road, in Brevard, Transylvania County, North Carolina. Performance: This facility had no violations in 2010. Sludge Management: To date this facility has never built up enough sludge to waste to the digesters. No sludge has ever been hauled, due to the low flow and loading of this facility. Should business increase and the need for sludge removal becomes apparent it will be wasted to the digesters where it will be stored and thickened for cost effective hauling. Sludge removal will be by truck by Mike's Septic, {828-253-2612} a local pump truck contractor. He will haul the sludge to disposal at the Town of Brevard waste treatment facility. All associated costs of this hauling will be paid by Adventure Village. Removal and management of this sludge will be done in a timely manner and in the best interests of facility operation and the environment. Notification: This report will be delivered to Adventure Village to the attention of Mr. Dale Owen and to Central Files, Division of Water Quality. Conclusion: The Adventure Village treatment plant is well designed for the existing flow and is a pleasure to operate. Everyone involved should be commended for the care and management of this facility and the environment. Certification: I certify under penalty of law that this report is complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge. I further certify that this report has been made available to the users or customers of the named system and that those users have been notified of its availability.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary) FACILITY DESCRIPTION: The Headwaters Outfitters — Adventure Village WWTP is a class II facility rated as a 0.020 MGD (0.035 MGD after A to C) extended aeration, steel, dual train package WWTPs operated in parallel consisting of: a flow splitter box; dual 5000 gallon flow equalization basins with diffused air and manual bar screens and 0.3 HP submersible pumps; dual 20.000 gallon aeration basins with dual Roots ® 5 HP (160 cfm) blowers providing diffused air; dual 5000 gallon hopper -type clarifiers (35 sq ft each) with air lift sludge returns and skimmer boxes; dual 5000 gallon aerobic digestors; dual tablet chlorinators; dual 750 gallon chlorine contact chambers; dual tablet chlorinators; dual tablet dechlorinators; meter box with 60 degree v-notch weir and PlantPRO BLT 32 ultrasonic flow meter; and emergency generator. Annual Average Flow: 0.0003 MGD (2007-2010 -- 3 year average) Development: Consists of a campground with cabins and campsites for tents and RVs, store & office. A restaurant was proposed in original plans, as a result, oil & grease monitoring & limits were put in the permit. The permittee has requested removal of O&G monitoring & limits from permit, since there is no restaurant, nor plans for one. Sludge Management: Commercial hauler (Mike's Septic Service) to the City of Brevard's WWTP, as needed (none yet). PERMIT / INSPECTION / LOG: A review of the files indicates that the last compliance evaluation inspection was conducted on 6-10-2009 by Janet Cantwell and Keith Haynes. The permit expires on 9-30-2010. The Division received your permit renewal request on 3-10-2010, with a request to remove oil and grease monitoring and limits, since a restaurant was never built. The daily operator log was present on -site and had good notation of daily events, process control and field testing data. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE / EFFLUENT / SUMMARY: Only one train of the plant is operated, due to very low flows (average — 300 gpd). Mr. Trevor McMinn, ORC, assisted in_the inspection and appears to be operating and maintaining the facility very well. The plant has begun to rust and will need resurfacing to prevent damage from corrosion.

In 2009 the infiltration was addressed and all accessible leaks have been addressed. Sludge Management: To date this facility has never built up enough sludge to waste to the digesters. No sludge has ever been hauled, due to the low flow and loading of this facility. Should business increase and the need for sludge removal becomes apparent it will be wasted to the digesters where it will be stored and thickened for cost effective hauling. Sludge removal will be by truck by Mike's Septic, {828-253-2612} a local pump truck contractor. He will haul the sludge to disposal at the Town of Brevard waste treatment facility. All associated costs of this hauling will be paid by Adventure Village. Removal and management of this sludge will be done in a timely manner and in the best interests of facility operation and the environment. Notification: This report will be delivered to Adventure Village to the attention of Mr. Dale Owen and to Central Files, Division of Water Quality. Conclusion: The Adventure Village treatment plant is well designed for the existing flow and is a pleasure to operate. Everyone involved should be commended for the care and management of this facility and the 0 environment. Certification: I certify under penalty of law that this report -is complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge. I further certify that this report has been made available to the users or customers of the named system and that those users have been notified of its availability.

The NOV's from your office arrived 4/29/09 and created a great deal of head scratching. The failure to monitor for temperature was traced to a another permit in place in the logbook. The permit was for Morgan Mill Resorts (NC0081001) also owned by a previous owner. The operator consulted this permit which was inadvertently provided by the owner. The two permits are similar except for temperature monitoring frequency. Obviously some assumptions were made in using this permit. On April 30'h 2009, being made aware of the problem, I left a message for Janet Cantwell and asked for a full copy of Adventure Village's permit. Janet has been a great resource for permits for other facilities. We regret that this oversight occurred and are committed to ensure that it does not happen again. The temperature stayed stable throughout this time period and flow was extremely low. There is no commercial or industrial activity that would adversely affect temperature on site. The impact to the environment of this failure to monitor temperature was extremely low. We hope to avoid any fines or enforcement actions for the following reasons: 3. The permit in question was supplied by a previous owner not the Whitmire's. The new permit when it arrives will be distributed to the new owner, the log book, and to the operator's files. The Morgan Mill permit will be removed from any files the operator has. We will give this problem the serious attention it deserves. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. If I can be of further assistance please don't hesitate to call. Sincerely, Trevor C.

As long as the solid portion of this waste stream is segregated from the water there should be no difficulty in discharging this waste stream to the treatment facility. There is ample capacity to accept this wastewater, however, should this discharge ever interfere with the facility's ability to treat incoming wastewater, installation of pretreatment units will be required. Currently flows are approximately 1,000 gallons/day while the design capacity of the treatment facility is 50,000 gallons/day. Your discharge should be minimal and should have no impact. Since you are a separate business from the D & D Catfish Resort, a letter from Dale Owens is needed verifying he is willing to accept your discharge. If you have any questions, please contact me at 828-251- 6208, ext. 258 or on my cell phone at 828-231-1333. Sincerely, / Kerry S. Becker Environmental Technician fax: Wesley McCall, Transylvania Co.

Burgin, Jr., Inc. PO Box 1804, Irmo, SC 29063 (803) 781-2965 D& D Catfish Resort Engineering Alternatives Analysis Three alternate methods to sewer the proposed project as shown on the preliminary plans for this project was studied. The three alternatives were connection to public sewer service, on site disposal system and on site wastewater treatment with discharge to Peter Weaver Creek. The discharge is into Peter Weaver Creek, which is a tributary to the French Broad River. The project will be a camping and trout fishing resort of approximately 50 cabins, 30 campsites, an office and a 40-unit motel and a restaurant. The expected flow is as follows: 50 cabins x 300 gpd/cabin = 15,000 gpd 50 campsites x 200 gpd/campsite = 10,000 gpd 40 unit motel x 200 gpd/ room = 8,000 gpd- — Office = 1,000 gpd Restaurants = 10,000 gpd Restroorris = 2,000 g12 Total 46,000 gpd use 50,000 gpd for planning purposes Attached is an acknowledgment letter signed by the Mayor of the Town of Rosman that public sewer service is not available for this project. No other public sewer service is available in this area. Therefore public sewer service as an option was not determined to be feasible. The soil scientist report is attached as part of the engineering alternative analysis. As noted in the study, there is an area of soils acceptable for subsurface discharge, but this area would not be able to handle the full sewer needs of this project. Also, as noted in the soil study, the development plans for the project are based on using the area that is acceptable for subsurface discharge for most of the development. A preliminary set of development plans has been attached to this report. This area is the most remote and natural area on the project. The natural area is what potential campers would want. If the subsurface disposal were used in this area it would ruin the plans for the project. Also, additional sewer service would have to be obtained to meet the total needs of the project. Therefore, subsurface disposal was not considered a viable option for this project. A small wastewater treatment plant was considered to be the most viable sewer option for the project. Preliminary plans for the site and the wastewater treatment plant are attached to this report for use in understanding the proposal. The wastewater treatment plant is planned as a 50,000 gpd extended aeration treatment plant. The plant would be built as parallel 25,000 gpd treatment chains. Each treatment chain would include bar screen, flow equalization, aeration, clarification, sludge digestion and holding, chlorination, dechlorination and flow measurement. Licensed operators would be employed for running the facility.

Three traverses consisting of a total of 50 back -hoe dug pits were examined. Complete soils profile descriptions are enclosed for each pit. A map is also enclosed showing drainage patterns, and the location of the pits. Recommendations are based on, but not limited to, observations made and data collected on topography, landscape position, parent material, underlying geology, and soil characteristics such as depth to a seasonal high water table (SHWT), depth to a restrictive horizon, total soil depth, soil horizonation, soil structure, soil color, clay mineralogy, stone content, and percent sand, silt, clay, and mica. They follow the laws and rules set forth in the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Health, On -Site Wastewater Section, Laws and Rules for Sewage Treatment and Disposal Systems, laws amended effective August 3, 1996, rules amended effective January 20, 1997. Soil data was collected from a back -hoe dug pit. Soil color was determined using a Munsell Soil Color Book, 1994 revised edition, and a Suunto clinometer was used to determine slope. The property consists of ridgetops, sideslopes, headslopes, noseslopes, toeslopes, terraces, and upland draws. In places these landscapes are complex or have soils that are shallow to SHWT, or shallow to parent material, rendering them unsuitable. Where these conditions do not occur, the soils are provisionally suitable at varying application rates for septic systems. Where landscapes contain soils shallow to parent material, their suitability c;an be upgraded to provisionally suitable with further study. } 533 CRABTREE MOUNTAIN ROAD • CANTON NC 28716.704-648-7080 2 1 landscape and soil feature is identified on the map by the symbol it, representing a perennial stream, a drainageway with continuous water flow. This soil survey is useful for general planning purposes only. It is not intended for exact location of septic systems. The traverses were conducted with pits approximately 100 feet apart along existing roads that are located at an angle to the secondary and tertiary drainage. The pits represent all soil areas on the property as to landform and landscape position. The southern portion of the property represented by pits 1 to 23 is unsuitable for septic systems due to the shallow bedrock conditions. In general, pits 24 to 50 in the northern part of the property, represent soils that are provisionally suitable for septic systems at varying application rates. Some pits are classified as unsuitable in this area because of shallow bedrock or SIIWT. Please refer to the soil profile descriptions for each pit to determine suitability and application rates. The traverses show that there are soil areas on your property that are provisionally suitable for septic systems. However, I question if there is any room for a septic system after the 90 acre tract is developed. The following improvements are planned for the property: 1. A 30 acre full -service campground including - '� campsites parking lot service buildings pond 2. A 15 acre primitive campground including - '� parking lot service building 3. A motel and parking lot. 4. A restaurant and parking lot. 5. Three 2-way access roads. 6. 50 rental cabins with driveways and parking areas. Using an average LIAR for the soil pits of 0.4 gallons per day per square foot, a 50,000 gallons per day facility will need about 17.2 acres of land for subsurface ewage disposal including the required repair area. The following are the calculations to arrive at this acreage figure: 3 50.000 gallons per day = 125,000 square feet of trench bottom 0.4 LTAR 125,000 SFTB = 41,667 linear feet of trench 3 feet (trench width) 41,667 LFOT = 417 100 foot lines 100 feet (length of septic line) 417 lines x 9 feet (center of trench to center of trench) = 3,753 feet 100 feet x 3,753 feet (dimention of field) = 8.6 acres 43,560 square feet per acre 8.6,acres x 2 = 17.2 acres (acreage needed for primary septic system and required repair area) I recommend that you and Robert Burgin, Project Engineer, develop a detailed site plan to determine if there is any land available for on -site sewage treatment. I will be happy to assist with this site plan if needed. Thank you for this opportunity to provide you with this preliminary soil survey. Sincerely, 3. J4;lx John B.
