Subject: NPDES Permit No. NC 0071285
Taylor Furniture Company
Iredell County, NC
Dear Mr. Smithson:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0071285 was
issued on November 16 , 1987 for the discharge of wastewater to
the surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose
of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit
and the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the
terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done
so, it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of
particular importance is Page M3 .
Page M3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge. Your discharge must not exceed
any of the limitations set forth. The section headed "Monitoring
Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types
and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your discharge (or
operation) , you must initiate the required monitoring. The
monitoring results must be entered on the DMR forms furnished to
you by this Agency. If you have not received these forms, they
should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the form,
please contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have
enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form (DEM Form
MR-1) , plus instructions for completing the form. It is
imperative that all applicable parts be completed, otherwise the
forms may be returned to you as incomplete. Failure to properly
complete the forms may also result in an automatic $300.00 fine.
The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III ) set
forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions
applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities

and/or discharge( s) . The conditions include special reporting
requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment
unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for
a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you are
operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in
operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type
of wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or
upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or
approved by this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215 . 6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A
civil penalty of up to $10, 000 per day per violation plus
criminal penalties may be assessed for such violations.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed.
Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than
180 days prior to expiration. Please make note o£. the expiration
date of your Permit. This date is set forth on Page M-1 or I-1
of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not
transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this
Permit, through cessation of the discharge, then you should
request that the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to
advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read
the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville
if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward
to providing any assistance.
Sincerely,

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Applicant proposes to construct a wastewater treatment
facility to serve a proposed development site containing a 120
room motel, a 40 seat restaurant, a 30 seat bar ( lounge) and a
furniture outlet store employing approximately 3-5 employees.
The site appears suitable for the construction of the
proposed facilities provided the yet-to-be-promulgated waste
load allocation reflects positive 7Q10 and/or 30Q2 stream flow.
Based on stream flow observations, the proposed facilities may
not be able to comply with the anticipated 5 and 2 (BOD and NH3
as N) limitations. Additional wastewater treatment faciilities
may be required in order to consistently comply with the above
limitations.
Provided an NPDES Permit is issued, some type of grease
removal should be incorporated into the collection system prior
to entering the proposed wastewater treatment facilities.
Pending receipt of a waste load allocation reflecting
positive stream flow, it is recommended that an NPDES Permit be
issued. Also, the Permit should be issued to Mr. Morris H.
Taylor and not to Mr. Smithson, who is an engineer representing
Mr. Taylor.

determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows
recorded during the calendar month.
g. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of
values is the summation of the individual values divided by
the number of individual values.
h. 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) .
i. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples
collected at equal intervals and combined proportional to
flow, a sample continuously collected proportionally to
flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time intervals. If a
composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent
grab samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals
between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than
hourly except where the detention time of the wastewater in
the facilicy is greater than 24 hours, in which case, the
interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number
of hours than the detention time in number of days;
provided, however, in no case may the time between effluent
grab samples be greater than six hours nor the number of
grab samples less than four during any discharge period of
