Jerry R Brown Construction
COC Number NCG550772
Transylvania County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under general permit NCG550000, the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued wastewater general permit Certificate of Coverage
(COC). This COC is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the
Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsquently amended).
The following information is included with your permit package:
* A copy of the Certificate of Coverage for your treatment facility
• A copy of General Wastewater Discharge Permit NCG550000
* A copy of a Technical Bulletin for General Wastewater Discharge Permit NCG550000
Your coverage under this general permit is not transferable except after notice to DWQ. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the Certificate of Coverage. This permit does not affect the legal
requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR or relieve the permittee from responsibility
for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or
decree.'
Please note that effective January 1, 1999 the fees for all permits issued by DWQ were changed. This changed the
fee for your wastewater general permit coverage from a $240 fee paid once every five years to a yearly fee of $50.
If you have not already been billed this year for the yearly fee, you will receive a bill later this year.
If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact Bill Mills of the Central Office Stormwater
and General Permits Unit at [phone], ext. 548

COC Number NCG550772

Dear Permittee:
Your residence or facility is currently covered for wastewater discharge under General Permit NCG550000. This
permit expires on July 31, 2002. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) staff is in the process of rewriting this permit
with a scheduled reissue in the summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued, your residence or facility would be
eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the DWQ for renewal of
your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in advance that your permit will
be expiring. Enclosed you will find a general permit coverage renewal application form. This will serve as
your application for renewal of your permit coverage. The application must be completed and returned with the
required information by February 01, 2002 in order to assure continued coverage under the general permit. There is
no renewal fee associated with this process.
Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of wastewater from your
residence or facility without coverage under a valid wastewater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of
NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
If the subject wastewater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
rescission request form. Mailing instructions are listed on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when the
rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit coverage renewal procedures please contact the Asheville Regional
Office at 828-251-6208 or Bill Mills of the Central Office Stormwater Unit at [phone], ext. 548

RE: Amended application for discharge of treated domestic wastewater to an
unnamed tributary of the French Broad River
Your File No. NCG 550772
Dear Mr. Howard;
On June 28, 1995 1 sent you an application for discharge of treated effluent
to an unnamed perennial stream that is a tributary to the French Broad River.
The application was based on the belief that it would qualify under 15ANCAC
2H.0127 as a General Permit Application.
On August 28, 1995 your Asheville office informed me that the project did
not meet all of the requirements for a General Permit Application, and that full
application review procedure will be required.
To initiate prompt review, an amended application is enclosed along with a
copy of my June 28, 1995 letter to you. I believe that you have already received
all information and fees necessary to process this application.
If you need any additional information, please contact me.

RE: Application for discharge of treated domestic wastewater to an
unnamed tributary of the French Broad River
Dear Mr. Howard;
My client, B.I.G. Inc. Construction, wishes to construct a combination office
and owner's apartment on a parcel of property in Dunn's Rock Township,
Transylvania County. The only feasible alternate for wastewater disposal is to
discharge the treated effluent to an unnamed perennial stream that is a tributary
to the French Broad River.
The property is within the area of special flood hazard of the French Broad
River. The property is not in the floodway of the French Broad River. The total
area of the property is about 1.1 acres including the highway right-of-way. The
area that will be disturbed by all proposed construction activity is less than one
acre.
Enclosed herewith for your consideration and action are three copies of
the following.
Complete and executed Short Form C.
An engineering proposal with required attachments.
A notarized statement relative to zoning and subdivision
requirements.
A statement of financial qualification and substantial
previous compliance.
I have discussed this application and the site conditions with your
Asheville office. Based on these discussions, I believe that this qualifies under
15A NCAC 2H.0127 as a General Permit Application.
Recent events make it imperative that my client complete and occupy his
building at the earliest possible time. Other required approvals are being
pursued. On June 19, 1995 the Brevard City Council approved the necessary
rezoning of the parcel. Contact has been made with the Corps of Engineers
concerning the culvert in the stream for the entrance drive. Arrangements have
been made for connection to the Knob Creek Water System. Building plans are
being prepared and a building permit will be applied for shortly. Th_e—C.o�n
will not issue a building permit until the wastewater system is ap�rovq� .

CHARLES H. PETERS, P.E.
CONSULTING ENGINEER
Anything that can be done to expedite this approval will be appreciated. If
you have any questions or need supplementary data, please call me or the
applicant and we will respond immediately.
Very truly yours,

Dear Ms. Becker:
In response to your request for low -flow data, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) does not
have site -specific data for the Un-named tributary to French Broad Fiver near Brevard, NC
(station ID 03440210). The statistics that are provided on the attached sheet have been
computed by correlating the runoff characteristics at nearby partial -record stations' to the site
of interest. They reflect natural strearnflow conditions and do not account for the effects of
any diversion or regulation that may be present.
Reference to USGS Water -Supply Paper (WSP) 2403, "Low -flow characteristics of streams in
North Carolina," concludes that low -flow discharges for the statistics shown on the attached
form are likely to be zem flow for drainage areas less than 0.5 m12, Given the drainage area at
your request site is 0,15 mil. this conclusion would indicate that low -Sow discharges for all
statistics are zero flow. However, low -flow discharges shown in Table I of WSP 2403 for a
number of continuous- and partial -record sites in vicinity of the request site and having
drainage areas less than 10 mi2 demonstrate a high potential for sustaining flows under dry
conditions, Discharge records show average streamflow rates for sites in this vicinity being
among the highest in the state of North Carolina.
Please note the low -flow discharges shown on the attached form do not account for the effects
caused by the amall lake upstream of the request site. During periods of dry conditions when
the water surface may fall below the spillway level, it is possible that flows downstream of the
lake could be lower that those shown of the attached form. However, with no knowledge of
the lake3's flow -release systems, there is currently no means of quantifying the effects on
downstream flows.
The U.S. Geological Survey provides timely water -resources information and data, through a
variety of scientific and technical publications and data reports. For many year$, the Survey
also has processed special requests for water -resources information free of charge. Because
of the increase in volume of special requests along with budget reductions imposed by the
Gramm -Rudman -Hollings Budget Deficit Reduction Act, the Survey will no longer be able to
process special requests free of charge. However, due to an existing cooperative study
agreement between USGS and N.C. Division of Environmental Management, the processing
- ----- __- - _fee f_or your request has been waived.

PART 1 - Origin. Type and Flow of Waste
The domestic waste will originate from a proposed building. The building
will be approximately 100' x W. It will be used as an office, Owner's apartment,
fabrications and tool -repair shop, and storage building for a licensed contractor
who specializes in residential construction. The building will be. Owner
occupied.
It is proposed that the building will contain a one bedroom apartment, an
office, a plan room, an exercise, room, a shop, and a storage bay. There will be
a combination bath and laundry room in the apartment, a, powder room in' the
office area, and a laundry -type sink in the shop next to the office door.
The proposed plumbing fixtures area shower, two toilets, two lavatories,
one kitchen sink, one clothes washer drain, and one laundry tub. No industrial
wastes will be discharged into any of the fixtures.
The water supply to the building will be from a public water service (Knob
Creek).
The expected flow volume is 340 gallons per day (gpd) of domestic
sewage. It was determined in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(l) as
follows.
One bedroom dwelling unit 240 gpd
Office - 2 employees @25 gpd 50
Shop - 2 employees @25 gpd 50
TOTAL FLOW
340 gpd

PART 2 - Options Considered
The property for which a discharge permit is sought is herein referred to as
the BIG property. In July 1989, the current Owners of the BIG property made
application to the Transylvania County Health Department for a permit for, a
conventional wastewater disposal system for a proposed duplex residential
structure with a design flow of 480 gals/day (A-1). This application was
informally denied by the County, due to unsatisfactory soil conditions. The
Owner did not pursue alternates and the ground remained idle.
In March 1995, the Owner found that he had a need to relocate both his
business facilities and his residence as soon as possible, and determined that
the BIG property, which he owned, met his needs. He engaged the services of
Charles H. Peters, P.E., Consulting Engineer, to obtain approvals for a
wastewater disposal system and to prepare necessary designs. At Mr. Peters'
suggestion, the Owner mowed the lot, flagged the corners, and arranged to
have Robert Raxter, R.L.S., make a survey and prepare a topographic plan of
the property. Mr. Peters asked the County Health Department to re-evaluate the
property for on -site disposal.
On March 28, 1995 Mr. Layton Long, Environmental Health Supervisor,
visited the site with Mr. Peters and made nine (9) test probings. The soil was
classified as Unsatisfactory at all nine locations (A-2). On March 30, 1995 Mr.
Long sent a letter to the Owner informing him that the "site was determined to be
unsuitable for the installation of an on -site sewage disposal system" (A-3).
The Owner's Engineer investigated possible alternate disposal systems.
Assessor's maps were consulted (A-4 and A-5), and the local area was visually
inspected. The parcels on each side are occupied by buildings which are
actively used. There is no possibility that either parcel could be used for on -site
systems for the BIG property. The land across the highway has been
subdivided and there is no available parcels within the subdivision that can be
used to serve the BIG property for on -site sewage disposal purposes. The
property to the rear of the BIG property is farther into the river floodplain and is
unsuitable for on -site sewage disposal.
The only available alternative is to discharge treated effluent to the stream
that flows through the property and then flows directly to the French Broad River
about 750 feet away. The stream has perennial flow. It is shown on the Brevard
USGS Quadrangle. It has a drainage area of about 100 acres. It is also fed by
a number of perennial springs. It is proposed that the discharge point be at the
rear of the property where the stream leaves the property. This would place it at
the greatest possible distance from adjacent buildings. There is no likelihood
that any development will occur between this point and the river, due to flood
hazard and floodway encroachments.

PART 3 - Proposed Treatment Works
The proposed system will consist of a 1000 gallon two -compartment septic
� t a 1000 gallon. two -compartment combination holding tank and pump tank,
Z,a� 36 square -foot enclosed recycling sand filter, and a distribution box. A contact
ch rinator will be included if required as a condition of approval.
The septic tank will be a state approved two -compartment tank with no
modifications. The septic tank will discharge by gravity to the holding
compartment of the holding -pump tank.
The holding -pump tank will be a state approved 1000 gallon septic tank
that will be modified. The larger compartment will serve as the holding tank and
the smaller compartment will serve as the pump tank. The mid -level opening
between the two compartments will be sealed. There will be a "T" outlet from
the holding compartment to the pump compartment. Its invert will be at about
two-thirds the distance from the tank bottom to the roof. Duplex pumps in the
pump compartment will pressure feed spray heads in the sand filter. The spare
capacity in the holding -pump tank will accommodate estimated 24-hour peak
flows.
There will be a remote alarm in the office portion of the building in the
event of power or pump failures. One of the Owner's portable generators will be
connected to the system to supply auxiliary power, if needed.
The sand filter will be contained in the bottom half of a state approved
1300 gallon pump tank. It will have a cover constructed of treated timber and
plywood with hinged openings. The sand filter drain will discharge to the
distribution box. the distribution box will divide the flow such that 75% will
return to the holding tank and 25% will discharge to the stream. the entire
system will be protected from estimated 100-year storm flooding. Design plans
for the system will be prepared when application approval is received.

Dear Mr. Brown:
John R. Folger. Jr., M.D.
Clinician
On March 28, 1995, I performed a series of soil evaluations on your property located on
Wilson Road. The property is adjacent to Child's World Day Care Center.
The soil conditions on this property were characterized by a poorly drained soil with a soil
wetness condition extending to the surface of the ground. In accordance with The Laws and
Rules for Sewaize Treatment and Disposal Systems, Section .1942(a), this site was
determined to be unsuitable for the installation of an on -site sewage disposal system.
The soil and .site conditions on this property are not conducive for use with any
conventional, modified, or alternative system with which I am aware. Please be advised that
N. C. General Statute 130A-24 gives you the right to an informal review by the N. C.
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. Please advise me if you wish
this review to be performed. It will also be necessary.for you to furnish this office with a
survey plat and clearly mark all property corners if this has not been done.
One possible alternative for development of this property is to obtain a sewage discharge
permit for the creek adjacent to the property. If you wish to pursue this alternative, I can
direct you to the proper agency.
If you have any questions, I can be reached at 884-3135 Monday through Friday.
Sincerely,
L. Layton Long, R. S.

PART 1 - Origin. Type and Flow of Waste
The domestic waste will originate from a proposed building. The building
will be approximately 100' x 60'. It will be used as anV0 � ert `mpar Me

The water supply to the building will be from a public water service (Knob
Creek).
The expected flow volume is 340 gallons per day (gpd) of domestic
sewage. It was determined in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(1) as

PART 2 - Options Considered
The property for which a discharge permit is sought is herein referred to as
the BIG property. In July 1989, the current Owners of the BIG property made
application to the Transylvania County Health Department for a permit for a
conventional wastewater disposal system for a proposed duplex residential
structure with a design flow of 480 gals/day (A-1). �'phat�on s
nf�rrrt' 111 d MIJ dy b; th °o r;�t,°,` , .fflrftsafff_gtrtyroajp—
lpcgpditipp-p The
Owner did not pursue alternates and the ground remained idle.
In March 1995, the Owner found that he had a need to relocate both his
business facilities and his residence as soon as possible, and determined that
the BIG property, which he owned, met his needs. He engaged the services of
Charles H. Peters, P.E., Consulting Engineer, to obtain approvals for a
wastewater disposal system and to prepare necessary designs. At Mr. Peters'
suggestion, the Owner mowed the lot, flagged the corners, and arranged to
have Robert Raxter, R.L.S., make a survey and prepare a topographic plan of
the property. Mr. Peters asked the County Health Department to re-evaluate the
property for on -site disposal.
On March 28, 1995 Mr. Layton Long, Environmental Health Supervisor,
visited the site with Mr. Peters and made nine (9) test probings. The soil was
classified as Unsatisfactory at all nine locations (A-2). *' li`� cb" '9`5 i

PART 3 - Proposed Treatment Works
The proposed system will consist of a 1000 gallon two -compartment septic
tank, a 1000 gallon two -compartment combination holding tank and pump tank,
a 36 square -foot enclosed recycling sand filter, and a distribution box. A contact
chlorinator will be included if required as a condition of approval.
The septic tank will be a state approved two -compartment tank with no
modifications. The septic tank will discharge by gravity to the holding
compartment of the holding -pump tank.
The holding -pump tank will be a state approved 1000 gallon septic tank
that will be modified. The larger compartment will serve as the holding tank and
the smaller compartment will serve as the pump tank. The mid -level opening
between the two compartments will be sealed. There will be a "T" outlet from
the holding compartment to the pump compartment. Its invert will be at about
two-thirds the distance from the tank bottom to the roof. Duplex pumps in the
pump compartment will pressure feed spray heads in the sand filter. The spare
capacity in the holding -pump tank will accommodate estimated 24-hour peak
flows.
There will be a remote alarm in the office portion of the building in the
event of power or pump failures. One of the Owner's portable generators will be
connected to the system to supply auxiliary power, if needed.
The sand filter will be contained in the bottom half of a state approved
1300 gallon pump tank. It will have a cover constructed of treated timber and
plywood with hinged openings. The sand filter drain will discharge to the
distribution box. the distribution box will divide the flow such that 75% will
return to the holding tank and 25% will discharge to the stream. 'The entire
system will be protected from estimated 100-year storm flooding. Design plans
for the system will be prepared when application approval is received. -

Dear Mr. Brown:
John R. Folger. Jr., M.D.
Clinician
On March 28, 1995, I performed a series of soil evaluations on your property located on
Wilson Road. The property is adjacent to Child's World Day Care Center.
The soil conditions on this property were characterized by a poorly drained soil with a soil
wetness condition extending to the surface of the ground. In accordance with The Laws and
Rules for Sewage Treatment and Disposal Systems, Section .1942(a), this site was
determined to be unsuitable for the installation of an on -site sewage disposal system.
The soil and , site conditions on this property are not conducive for use with any
conventional, modified, or alternative system with which I am aware. Please be advised that
N. C. General Statute 130A-24 gives you the right to an informal review by the N. C.
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. Please advise me if you wish
this review to be performed. It will also be necessary for you to furnish this office with a
survey plat and clearly mark all property corners if this has not been done.
One possible alternative for development of this property is to obtain a sewage discharge
permit for the creek adjacent to the property. If you wish to pursue this alternative, I can
direct you to the proper agency.
If you have any questions, I can be reached at 884-3135 Monday through Friday.

Dear Mr. Brown:
An inspection was conducted on the subject wastewater treatment
plant on March 7, 1997 by Ms. Kerry Becker. . As the inspection
report indicates the facility was not being operated and maintained
as designed. This constitutes a violation of Part II'C.2 of the
Certificate of Coverage.
The following deficiencies were noted:
1. Most of the sprinklers in both filter beds were
completely clogged.
2. The filter sand may be clogging. Wastewater was
ponding on the surface of the beds with most of that
returning to the dosing tank via the overflow pipe.
3. The cover is not sealing well enough to prevent
wastewater from running out from under the lid.
4. Whenever the cover is lowered the 2" x 4" brace gouges
up the filter bed.
Please implement the necessary remedial actions to bring the facility
into compliance.

Section D: Summary of Findings/Comments (Attach additional sheets if necessary)
Inspection findings for the recirculating sand filter wastewater treatment system:
1. A majority of the sprinklers were clogged in both sand filters. These need to be cleaned and checked on a routine basis.
2. The filter bed may be clogging or, due to the clogged sprinklers, heavier than normal amounts of wastewater may be being sprayed onto only certain sections
of the filter beds. Wastewater was ponding on the surface of the beds with most of that returning to the dising tank via the overflow pipe rather than percolating
through the sand filter. Once the sprinklers are unclogged and operating properly, a dosing cycle should be observed to ensure that the wastewater is percolating
properly.
3. The cover is not sealing well enough to prevent wastewater from running out from under the lid. A different cover and or at least installation of a seal are
needed.
4. Whenever the cover is lowered, the 2" x 4" brace gouges up the surface of the sand filter bed. Either the brace needs to be adjusted or a different means of
holding the cover up needs to be found.
The above deficiencies constitute a violation of Part II C.2 of the Certificate of Coverage.

WASTE WATER SYSTEM FOR B.I.G., INC. CONSTRUCTION
PART A. BACKGROUND
On September 13, 1995 B.I.G., Inc. Construction applied for an NPDES
discharge permit to discharge treated domestic waste water to an unnamed
tributary of the French Broad River. The application was for.a_recirculating sand
filter system with a design flow of 340 gallons per day. The system will serve a
residential -commercial building. It is shown. on Plan Sheet No. .3. The building
will have a one -bedroom owner's apartment and an office, shop, and
warehouse for a building contractor.
On December 20, 1995 the Division of Environmental Management of the
Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources issued Certificate
of Coverage NCG 550772 authorizing construction and operation .of the system
(Exhibit A).
PART B. SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Section B.1. General
With two exceptions, the system as designed and shown on the plans is
consistent with the application, documents, the Certificate of Coverage, and
DEM's transmittal letter. The two exceptions are the substitution of an ultraviolet
disinfection system for a chlorinator, and the use of sand media that is coarser
than DEM's sand specifications. The design calculations for -this. system and
standard components are attached (see Exhibit B).
Section B.2. Building Components
Three components of the system are to located in the building, an
electrical subpanel, a remote alarm, and an alarm circuit indicator light. A 60
amp, 8-circuit electric subpanel on the exterior of the building will serve the
system. The remote alarm and alarm circuit indicator light will be located on the
wall that separates the shop from the apartment bedroom.
Section B.3. Waste Water System
The system will be located at the rear of the property on an area to be
filled. The top of all components will be at Elevation 2114, two feet above the
flood hazard (100-yr storm) elevation of 2112. -

Section B.4. Septic Tank . }
The septic tank is a standard 1000-gallon precast tank. It is shown on �N
Plan Sheet WS-1. It will provide primary treatment by separation,. settlement, /tob 1)
and anaerobic digestion. The average detention time in the tank will be about
two and one-half days (2� d). the tank will also provide about 140 gallons of
emergency storage in the event of system shutdown.
Section B.S. Filter Tank
The effluent from the septic tank will discharge to a filter tank that is
shown on Plan Sheet WS-9. This tank will have a wet storage of about 40

Waste Water System
B.I.G. Inc. Construction
Page 2
gallons. The effluent in this tank will pass through a Zabel Model A-100 filter.
For manufacturer's information see Exhibit C. This filter will both filter and
further anaerobically treat the effluent.. This will produce a clearer effluent for
the recirculating filters and the disinfection unit. Effluent from the filter tank is
joined with the recirculating filter discharge by a tee and the combined flow
goes to the dosing tank.
Section B.6. Dosing Tank
The combined flow from the filter tank and the recirculating filters will
discharge into the dosing tank that is shown on Plan Sheet WS-8. A'standard
1000-gallon septic tank, with some modifications that can be made at the
manufacturing plant, is used for the dosing tank.
The liquid will enter the smaller compartment or sump chamber of the
tank. There the aerobic discharge from the recirculating filters and anaerobic
septic discharge will mix. The retention time in the sump chamber will be.three
hours (3 hrs.). Liquid from the sump chamber will overflow into the pump
chamber. From there, it will be pumped to the recirculating filters..._
The system controls and alarms will be located at the dosing tank. The
primary control will be an adjustable timer to provide essentially uniform dosing
of the filters. The timingcan be adjusted if it is found that actual flows vary from
design flows. It is anticipated that actual flows will be less than the design flows.
There is also a float control over -ride. This will prevent the pump from operating
when there is insufficient fluid for a full cycle.
The alarm circuit will be activated both by high water in the dosing tank
and in the event of non -operation of the ultra -violet disinfection lamp.
In the event of power outage or pump failure, the dosing tank has a basic
storage of 475 gallons, more than one day's flow. The dosing and septic tanks
combined have another 280 gallons of emergency storage. This total storage of
750 gals equals 2.2 times the design daily flow.
Section B.7. Recirculating Filters
Secondary aerobic treatment of the waste water will occur. in..two
recirculating sand filters that are shown on Plan Sheet WS-7. Each filter will be
housed in the bottom half of a precast concrete pump tank. The filters will have
a treated lumber cover to prevent the entry of rain water into the system.
Each filter has an area of 34 square feet. The application rate of waste
water to the filters in 5 gals per square foot per day (5 gals/ft2/d). The liquid will
be distributed to each filter tank by eight nozzles. There is a globe valve on the
distribution line at each filter to adjust the flow rate to the nozzles. The
distribution tree is removable for ease of filter maintenance.
The filter media will be placed in four layers. The bottom layer will be a
medium crushed stone. It will collect the filter effluent and channel it to the
collector pipes. The next layer will be a fine crushed stone. This will prevent
the sand from being washed out of the filter. The main layer will be coarse sand
(1.0 - 1.5 mm). This has been found to be the optimum particle size for this type
of filter. The top layer will be a medium crushed stone. Covering the sand with
a layer of crushed stone inhibits the buildup of scum and algae on the top of the
filter. This improves filter operation and eliminates most odor problems.

Waste Water System
B.I.G. Inc. Construction
Page 3
The filtered liquid will be collected by two systems of perforated pipes.
They will be separated by a concrete curb. Twenty-five percent of the effluent
will go to the discharge. The other 75 percent will be returned to the dosing
tank. The discharge -collecting piping will have a vent. The return -collecting
piping will have a combination vent and overflow. In the event that a filter
becomes clogged, the liquid will be returned to the dosing tank, by-passing the
discharge. This will cause the liquid level in the dosing tank to rise; activating
the alarm. The outlet elevation of the filters is about 2.5 feet higher than the
septic tank and dosing tank. This prevents back up from these tanks into the
filters.
Effluent going to the discharge goes directly to the Disinfection Tank.
Section B.B. Disinfection Tank
The disinfection tank will be a 30-inch diameter precast concrete
chamber. This is shown on Plan Sheet WS-9. It will contain Aqua Treatment
Services, Inc. Model DWSW-15 ultraviolet disinfection unit. For manufacturer's
information, see Exhibit D. It will be mounted vertically in the tank. After
disinfection, the effluent passes into the aeration chamber.
Section B.9. Aeration Chamber
The topography of the site is such that it is impractical to use a
conventional cascade aerator. In lieu of this an aeration chamber is used. It is
shown on Plan Sheet No. 2. The chamber will be constructed of concrete
masonry units. Within the chamber, the effluent will fall about'four,feet. Itwill
splash on two stainless steel plates as it falls.
The top of this chamber is covered with a grating. This will allow rain
water to clean the chamber.
From the aeration chamber, the effluent will be piped to a headwall at the
stream's edge. There will be a backwater valve at the headwall. This will
prevent flood waters from backing into the system. The invert of this discharge
pipe is above the normal water level of the stream so that sampling of the
effluent will be possible.
PART C. SYSTEM OPERATION, MAINTENANCE, AND RELIABILITY
Section C.1. Normal Operation and Maintenance
When functioning properly, the system will operate automatically without
any operator attention. The only maintenance required will be periodic
cleaning of the lamp housing in the Disinfection system. This requires no
special skills and can be accomplished in a matter of minutes.
Section C.2. Special Maintenance
In the unlikely event of filter failure, the distribution piping can" be
removed as a unit, and filter media replaced in a short period of time. The
dosing tank pump is a high quality, reliable unit. Should there be a pump
failure, a replacement can be obtained from nearby suppliers.

Waste Water System
B.I.G. Inc. Construction
Page 4
Section C.3. Potential System Shut -downs
The two most likely causes of system shut -down are pump burn out and
power failure. The system has an emergency storage capacity that equals
slightly more than twice the system design flow. A replacement pump can be
obtained and installed in less than this time.
The power line serving the property also services the pumps for the
private water system that supplies the property. The water system does not
have an emergency power system. When there is a prolonged power outage,
this system exhausts its storage capacity and goes dry in about two days. In the
event of an extreme shut down, a domestic septic tank hauler can empty the
dosing tank. Dual pumps and emergency power are not warranted for a simple
system of this size.

This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged
during a calendar day. If only one sample -is taken during any calendar day the
weight of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This
limitation is identified as "Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such year. .It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual
Average" in Part I of the permit.

7. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than'for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a
calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by
the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month
(arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value
is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is
the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that
calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric
mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is
identified as "Monthly Average' under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a
calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily
concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case
of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples
collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform
bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar
week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Units" in Part
I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge
during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the
concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration".
It is identified as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a
calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the
number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic
mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to
the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the
arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that
calendar day . The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric
mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year.
e. The daily average concentration (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable
amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to
discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is
taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average
concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily average' in the text of Part
I.
f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a
calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of
Part I of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January
through March, April through June, July through September, and October through
December.

8. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows
recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of
sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total
discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility
which occurs continually 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.
9. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) 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
(2) 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 present gallon interval
between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily
flow at the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of
flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall
be no greater than once per houri and the time interval between effluent grab
samples shall be no greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment
systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent
grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour
period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in
number of days. However, in no case may the time interval between effluent grab
samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less than four (4)
during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time
not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually.
10. Calculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the
product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual
values. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of
the logarithms of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
Page 4 of 16

c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each
concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective
flows.
11. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as 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.

Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
(1) "Bypass" means 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.
(2) "Severe property damage" means 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 does not mean economic loss
caused by delays in. production.
b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
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
c. and d. of this section.
c. Notice
(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 affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated
bypass as required in Part II, E. 6. of this permit. (24-hour notice).
d. Prohibition of Bypass
(1) Bypass 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 c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering
its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the
three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
Upsets
a. Definition.
'Upset means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and
temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because
of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include
noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed
treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance,
or careless or improper operation.
b. Effect of an upset.
An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance
with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of
paragraph c. 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.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset.
A 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 permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of
this permit.
(4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II, B. 2. of
this permit.
d. Burden of proof.
In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of
an upset has the burden of proof.
Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or .other pollutants removed in the course of
treatment or control of wastewaters shall be 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. Upon promulgation of 40 CPR Part 503, any permit issued by the
Permit.Issuing Authority for the disposal of sludge may be reopened and modified, or
revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable requirements at 40 CPR Part 503.
Page 10 of 16

The permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part 603 Standards for the Use
and Disposal of Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the time provided in the
regulation, even if the permit is not modified to incorporate the requirement. The
permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant change in its
sludge use or disposal practices.
7. Power Failures
The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by
DEM Regulation, Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H,
.0124 Reliability, to prevent the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated
wastes during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power sources,
standby generators or retention of inadequately treated effluent.
SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS
1. Representative Sampling
Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be
characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples
collected at a frequency less than daily shall be taken on a day and time that is
characteristic of the discharge over the entire period which the sample represents.
All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit and,
unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other
wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed
without notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority.
2. Flow Measurements
Appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted
scientific practices shall be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of
measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. The devices shall be
installed, calibrated and maintained to ensure that the accuracy of the
measurements are consistent with the accepted capability of that type of device.
Devices selected shall be capable of measuring flows with a maximum deviation of
less than 10% from the true discharge rates throughout the range of expected
discharge volumes. Once -through condenser cooling water flow which is monitored by
pump logs, or pump hour meters as specified in Part I of this permit and based on
the manufacturer's pump curves shall not be subject to this requirement.
3. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations
published pursuant to NCGS 143-215.63 et. seq., the Water and Air Quality
Reporting Acts; and to regulations published pursuant to Section 304(g), 33, USC
1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as Amended, and Regulation 40
CFR 136. To meet the intent of the monitoring required by this permit, all test
procedures must produce minimum detection and reporting levels that are below the
permit discharge requirements and all data generated must be reported down to
the minimum detection or lower reporting level of the procedure. If no approved
methods are determined capable of achieving minimum detection and reporting
levels below permit discharge requirements, then the most sensitive (method with
the lowest possible detection and reporting level) approved method must be used.
4. Penalties for Tampering
The Clean Water Act provides that any person who falsifies, tampers with, or
knowingly renders inaccurate, any monitoring device or method required to be
maintained under this permit shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not
more than $10,000 per violation, or by imprisonment for not -more than two years per
violation, or by both.

pass directly to receiving watCrs without treatment of all or any portion of the
influent to such station or facility.
Persons reporting such' occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in
letter form within 5 days following first knowledge of the occurrence.
Availability of Reports
Except for data determined to be confidential under NCGS 143-215.3(a)(2) or Section
308 of the Federal Act, 33 USC 1318, all reports prepared in accordance with the
terms shall be made available for public inspection at the offices of the Division of
Environmental Management or at the site of the discharge within a reasonable time
period, not to exceed five (5) days. As required by the Act, effluent data shall not be
considered confidential. Knowingly making any false statement on any such
report may result in the imposition of criminal penalties as provided for in NCGS
143-215.1(b)(2) or in Section 309 of the Federal Act.
Penalties for Falsification of Reports
The Clean Water Act provides that any person who knowingly makes any false
statement, representation, or certification in any record or other document
submitted or required to be maintained under this permit, including monitoring
reports or reports of compliance or noncompliance shall, upon conviction, be punished

Dear Ms. Becker:
In response to your request for low -flow data, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) does not
have site -specific data for the Un-named tributary to French Broad River near Brevard, NC
(station ID 03440210). The statistics that are provided on the attached sheet have been
computed by correlating the runoff characteristics at nearby partial -record stations to the site
of interest. They reflect natural streamflow conditions and do not account for the effects of
any diversion or regulation that may be present.
Reference to USGS Water -Supply Paper (WSP) 2403, "Low -flow characteristics of strearns in
North Carolina," concludes that low -flow discharges for the statistics shown on the attached
form are'lik'ely to be -zero flow for drainage areas less than 0.5 mi2. Given the drainage area at
your request site is 0.15 mi2, this conclusion would indicate that low -flow discharges for all
statistics are zero flow. However, low -flow discharges shown in Table 1 of WSP 2403 for a
number of continuous- and partial -record sites in vicinity of the request site and having
drainage areas less than 10 mi2 demonstrate a high potential for sustaining flows under dry
conditions. Discharge records show average strearnflow rates for sites in this vicinity being
among the highest in the state of North Carolina.
Please note the low -flow discharges shown on the attached form do not account for the effects
caused by the small lake upstream of the request site. During periods of dry conditions when
the water surface may fall below the spillway level, it is possible that flows downstream of the
lake could be lower that those shown of the attached form. However, with no knowledge of
the lake's flow -release systems, there is currently no means of quantifying the effects on
downstream flows.
The U.S. Geological Survey provides timely water -resources information and data through a
variety of scientific and technical publications and data reports. For many years, the Survey
also has processed special requests for.water-resources information free of charge. Because
of the -increase in volume of special requests along with budget reductions imposed by the
Gramm=Rudman=Hollings Budget Deficit Reduction Act, the Survey.wilLnoJonger berable.to

Form
In an effort to track Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) and Bypasses of wastewater treatment
plants, we have developed a reporting form and database.
After Hurricane Fran, you were contacted initially for information on SSOs and Bypasses. A few
days later, a survey form was developed asking for more information as the public was asking for
more detailed information. This information was compiled on a database.
We have taken the survey form and developed a form for use by the regional offices for recording
SSOs and Bypasses. When a permittee calls to report a SSOs or Bypass, regional office personnel
can simply fill out the form and send it to the Compliance Group. Once received, the information
on the form will be entered into a FileMaker Pro database. This is the same system where Animal
Operation information is being tracked. The Compliance Group is working towards each regional
office being electronically linked to data maintained by the Compliance Group. Therefore, in the
future, these reports will be entered by the regional office staff as they are received.
Please begin using these forms by no later than December 1, 1996. If you have any questions
concerning this form, please contact Bob Sledge at [phone], ext. 233.

Authorization to Construct
B.I.G., Inc.
Wastewater Treatment Facility
Transylvania County
Dear Mr. Brown:
A letter of request for an Authorization to Construct was received on August 1, 1996 by the
Division and final plans and specifications for the subject project have been reviewed and found to be
satisfactory. Authorization is hereby granted for the construction of a 340 GPD wastewater treatment
system consisting of a 1000 gallon septic tank, dual recirculating sand filters measuring 8.5 feet by 4.0
feet each, a 21 gallon per minute recirculating pump and recirculating tank, a UV disinfection system, an
aeration chamber, and associated appurtenances with the discharge of treated wastewater into an unnamed
tributary to the French Broad River, a Class C stream in the French Broad River Basin.
This Authorization to Construct is issued in accordance with Part III, Paragraph 2. of NPDES
Permit No. NCG550000 issued December 20, 1995, and shall be subject to revocation unless the
wastewater treatment facilities are constructed in accordance with the conditions and limitations specified in
Permit No. NCG550000.
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 [phone], 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 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. Mail the Certification to the Permits and Engineering Unit, P.O. Box 29535, Raleigh, NC
27626-0535.
A copy of the approved plans and specifications shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the
life of the facility.

The sand media of the filters must comply with the Division's sand specifications. The engineer's
certification will be evidence that this certification has been met.
A leakage test shall be performed on the septic tank and dosing tank to ensure that any exfiltration
occurs at a rate which does not exceed twenty (20) gallons per twenty-four (24) hour per 1,000 gallons of
tank capacity. The engineer's certification will serve as proof of compliance with this condition.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Authorization to Construct may subject the
Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management 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.
One (1) set of approved plans and specifications is being forwarded to you. If you have any
questions or need additional information, please contact Susan Robson, telephone number 919/733-5083

3. It really doesn't matter but the anti -siphon hole on
the pump line in the dosing tank is unnecessary since
the dosing tank is below the level of the sand filters.
4. Install an additional coupling just before the 2" x
1" reducer so that the piping can be removed when the
pump needs to be replaced. -Without it, there will be
problems getting the pump pass all the piping.
5. The alarm float and the cut on float should be
separated in distance sufficiently or positioned
opposite each other on the float free to prevent the
alarm float from binding the cut on float. The
engineer has stated that the pump is not suppose to
overheat if the water level drops too low.
Repositioning the floats will ensure that this will not
be a problem that we will have to worry about.
6. The loading rate on the filter bed will be greater
than 5.0 gallons/sq. ft./day (more like 20 gallons/sq.
ft./day) since 3/4 of the wastewater will be
recirculated. Is this acceptable?
The A to C for this project should be issued.

WASTE WATER SYSTEM FOR B.I.G., INC. CONSTRUCTION
PART A. BACKGROUND
On September 13, 1995 B.I.G., Inc. Construction applied for an NPDES
discharge permit to discharge treated domestic waste water to an unnamed
tributary of the French Broad River. The application was for a recirculating sand
filter system with a design flow of 340 gallons per day. The system will serve a
residential -commercial building. It is shown on Plan Sheet No. .3. The building
will have a one -bedroom owner's apartment and an office, shop, and
warehouse for a building contractor.
On December 20, 1995 the Division of Environmental Management of the
Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources issued Certificate
of Coverage NCG 550772 authorizing construction and operation .of the system
(Exhibit A).
PART B. SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Section B.1. General
With two exceptions, the system as designed and shown on the plans is
consistent with the application, documents, the Certificate of Coverage, and
DEM's transmittal letter. The two exceptions are the substitution of an ultraviolet
disinfection system for a chlorinator, and the use of sand media that is coarser
than DEM's sand specifications. The design calculations for this system and
standard components are attached (see Exhibit B).
Section B.2. Building Components
Three components of the system are to located in the building,,an
electrical subpanel, a remote alarm, and an alarm circuit indicator light. A 60
amp, 8-circuit electric subpanel on the exterior of the building will serve the
system. The remote alarm and alarm circuit indicator light will be located on the
wall that separates the shop from the apartment bedroom.
Section B.3. Waste Water System
The system will be located at the rear of the property on an area to be
filled. The top of all components will be at Elevation 2114, two feet -above the
flood hazard (100-yr storm) elevation of 2112.
Section B.4. Septic Tank
The septic tank is a standard 1000-gallon precast tank. It is shown on
Plan Sheet WS-1. It will provide primary treatment by separation, settlement,
and anaerobic digestion. The average detention time in the tank will be about
two and one-half days (2-1 d). the tank will also provide about 140 gallons of
emergency storage in the event of system shutdown. 14,, - 1AftleSS
Section B.5. Filter Tank
The effluent from the septic tank will discharge to a filter tank that is
shown on Plan Sheet WS-9. This tank will have a wet storage of about 40

Waste Water System
B.I.G. Inc. Construction
Page 2 _
gallons. The effluent in this tank will pass through a Zabel Model A-100 filter.
For manufacturer's information see Exhibit C. This filter will both filter and
further anaerobically treat the effluent.. This will produce a clearer effluent for
the recirculating filters and the disinfection unit. Effluent from the filter tank is
joined with the recirculating filter discharge by a tee and the combined flow
goes to the dosing tank.
Section B.6. Dosing Tank
The combined flow from the filter tank and the recirculating filters will
discharge into the dosing tank that is shown on Plan Sheet WS-8. A standard
1000-gallon septic tank, with some modifications that can be made at the
manufacturing plant, is used for the dosing tank.
The liquid will enter the smaller compartment or sump chamber of the
tank. There the aerobic discharge from the recirculating filters and anaerobic
septic discharge will mix. The retention time in the sump chamber will be three
hours (3 hrs.). Liquid from the sump chamber -will overflow into the pump
chamber. From there, it will be pumped to the recirculating *filters.'
The system controls and alarms will be located at the dosing tank. The
primary control will be an adjustable timer to provide essentially uniform dosing
of the filters. The timing. can be adjusted if it is found that actual flows vary from
design flows. It is anticipated that actual flows will be less than the design flows.
There is also a float control over -ride. This will prevent the pump, from operating
when there is insufficient fluid for a full cycle.
The alarm circuit will be activated both by high water in the dosing tank
and in the event of non -operation of the ultra -violet disinfection lamp.
In the event of power outage or pump failure, the dosing tank has a basic
storage of 475 gallons, more than one day's flow. The dosing and septic tanks
combined have another 280 gallons of emergency storage. This total storage of
750 gals equals 2.2 times the design daily flow.
Section B.7. Recirculating Filters
Secondary aerobic treatment of the waste water will occur in two
recirculating sand filters that are shown on Plan Sheet WS-7. Each filter will be
housed in the bottom half of a precast concrete pump tank. ' The filters will have
a treated lumber cover to prevent the entry of rain water into the system.
Each filter has an area of 34 square feet. The application rate of waste
water to the filters in 5 gals per square foot per day (5 gals/ft2/d). The liquid will
be distributed to each filter tank by eight nozzles. There is a globe valve on the
distribution line at each filter to adjust the flow rate to the nozzles....The
distribution tree is removable for ease of filter maintenance.
The filter media will be placed in four layers. The bottom layer will be a
medium crushed stone. It will collect the filter effluent and channel it to the
collector pipes. The next layer will be a fine crushed stone. This will prevent
the sand from being washed out of the filter. The main layer will be coarse sand
(1.0 - 1.5 mm). This has been found to be the optimum particle size for this type
of filter. The top layer will be a medium crushed stone. Covering the sand with
a layer of crushed stone inhibits the buildup of scum and algae on the top of the
filter. This improves filter operation and eliminates most odor problems.

The filtered liquid will be collected by two systems of perforated pipes.
They will be separated by a concrete curb. Twenty-five percent of the effluent
will go to the discharge. The other 75 percent will be returned to the dosing
tank. The discharge -collecting piping will have a vent. The return -collecting
piping will have a combination vent and overflow. In the event that a filter
becomes clogged, the liquid will be returned to the dosing tank, by-passing the
discharge. This will cause the liquid level in the dosing tank to rise, activating
the alarm. The outlet elevation of the filters is about 2.5 feet higher than the
septic tank and dosing tank. This prevents back up from these tanks into the
filters.
Effluent going to the discharge goes directly to the Disinfection Tank.
Section B.B. Disinfection Tank
The disinfection tank will be a 30-inch diameter precast concrete
chamber. This is shown on Plan Sheet WS-9. It will contain Aqua Treatment
Services, Inc. Model DWSW-15 ultraviolet disinfection unit. 'For manufacturer's
information, see Exhibit D. It will be mounted vertically in the tank. After
disinfection, the effluent passes into the aeration chamber.
Section B.9. Aeration Chamber
The topography of the site is such that it is impractical to use a
conventional cascade aerator. In lieu of this an aeration chamber is used. It is
shown on Plan Sheet No. 2. The chamber will be constructed of concrete
masonry units. Within the chamber, the effluent will fall about four feet. It will
splash on two stainless steel plates as it falls.
The top of this chamber is covered with a grating. This will allow rain
water to clean the chamber.
From the aeration chamber, the effluent will be piped to a headwall at the
stream's edge. There will be a backwater valve at the headwall. This will
prevent flood waters from backing into the system. The invert of this discharge
pipe is above the normal water level of the stream so that sampling of the -
effluent will be possible.
PART C. SYSTEM OPERATION, MAINTENANCE, AND RELIABILITY
Section C.1. Normal Operation and Maintenance
When functioning properly, the system will operate automatically without
any operator attention. The only maintenance required will be periodic
cleaning of the lamp housing in the Disinfection system. This requires no
special skills and can be accomplished in a matter of minutes.
Section C.2. Special Maintenance
In the unlikely event of filter failure, the distribution piping can be
removed as a unit, and filter media replaced in a short period of time. The
dosing tank pump is a high quality, reliable unit. Should there be a pump.
failure,a replacement can be obtained from nearby suppliers.

B.I.G. Inc. Construction
Page 4
Section C.3. Potential System Shut -downs
The two most likely causes of system shut -down are pump burn out and
power failure. The system has an emergency storage capacity that equals
slightly more than twice the system design flow. A replacement pump can be
obtained and installed in less than this time.
The power line serving the property also services the pumps for the
private water system that supplies the property. The water system does not
have an emergency power system. When there is a prolonged power outage,
this system exhausts its storage capacity and goes dry in about two days. In the
event of an extreme shut down, a domestic septic tank hauler can empty the
dosing tank. Dual pumps and emergency power are not warranted for a simple
system of this size.
