C. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent
downstream uses: 5' deep by 15' wide channel, with
small flood plain, approximately 10" flow at this time.

reclassified to WS-I.
PART II - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
1. Type of Wastewater: 100% Domestic
0 o Industrial
a. Volume of Wastewater: .00024 MGD - SFR

Wastewater Code(s): 04
PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION
1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grants
Funds (municipals only)? N/A
2. Special monitoring requests: N/A
3. Additional effluent limits requests: N/A
4. Other: Drainage area above proposed Coddle Creek reservoir
and discharge is farm land with very light residential
development.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The applicant, Frank Crainshaw, has proposed to discharge
wastewater into Emerson Branch. The applicant lives on
approximately 26 acres, most of which is pasture. The discharge
is for a new residence on this property.

f
Page Three
The proposed discharge is approximately 3000 feet upstream
from the proposed Coddle Creek reservoir. This watershed is in
the process of reclassification to WS-I from WS-III. The
receiving stream, Emerson Branch, has been determined from the
waste load allocation procedures as having a 0.0 cfs 7Q10 stream
flow. The proposed sand filter wastewater treatment system
probably would not have the ability to obtain needed BOD levels.
This Office recommends that the Permit be denied. Wade
McDonald of the Division of Health Services, per phone
conversation, recommended the Permit be denied. An alternative
system such as land application, should be pursued.

Dear Mr. Crainshaw:
Your application for a NPDES Permit to discharge 240 GPD of treated wastewater into
Emerson Branch from a proposed wastewater treatment facility located on Windy Road -was
received on January 5, 1990. Our Mooresville Regional Office has performed a site
investigation, and the Division has completed its review of the permit application.
Our review has determined that the proposed point of discharge is approximately 3000
feet upstream of the proposed Coddle Creek reservoir. This watershed is in the process of being
reclassified to a class WS-1 stream. WS-1 streams are sources of water supply for drinking,
culinary, or food processing purposes. Wastewater discharges are not allowed on WS-I streams.
Therefore, your request for a NPDES permit is hereby denied.
Several wastewater treatment and disposal alternatives may be available in order to obtain
approval for this project. Utilizing a ground absorption system which is handled under the
jurisdiction of the local health department, connecting to a publicly owned treatment works, or
spray irrigation are alternatives which should be evaluated. We stand ready to discuss these
alternatives with you in detail and to assist you in any way we can in selecting a suitable means
of wastewater disposal.

Our review has determined that the proposed point of discharge is approximately
3000 feet upstream of the proposed Coddle Creek reservoir. This water shed is in the process of
