The system is in a temporary operating state awaiting redevelopment to the permitted Centralized Waste Treatment facility. Currently, there is nearly zero wastewater flowing into the system and our effluent flows are nearly 100% stormwater. The effluent flows during and after large rain storms making sampling according to the current permit schedule extremely difficult. Many samples are missed according the permitted frequency because of the lack of flows on a consistent basis. A table showing recent flows through the outfall along with monthly recorded rainfall is shown below for your reference. Month Monthly Flow (MG) Monthly Rain (inches) 8/31 /2019 - 1.2 9/30/2019 - 0.17 10/31 /2019 - 5.47 11 /30/2019 - 3.54 12/31 /2019 2.866 4.25 1 /31 /2020 4.247 5.75 2/29/2020 10.15 7.64 3/31 /2020 0.701 2.01 4/30/2020 - 4.08 5/31 /2020 1.924 9.77 6/30/2020 1.835 4.69 7/31 /2020 - 3.07 8/31 /2020 - 7.07 9/30/2020 1 0.548 1 6.3 EDGE 7401 Statesville Blvd Salisbury, NC 28147 WATER TREATING, LLC We estimate less than 100 gal/day of sanitary waste generated on site during this interim phase based on 13 gal/day/person with between 2 and 8 people on site 5 days per week. With the extremely large holding capacity, the small amount of sanitary influent is diluted so much with rainwater, it never makes it to the outfall. We would like to request a temporary modification to sampling with monthly grab samples for the following parameters: BOD TSS Ammonia Oil and Grease Fecal Coliforms We are asking for no change in permit limits, only the sampling frequency and modification from composite to grab samples for the affected parameters. We have discussed this option with Roberto Scheller in the Mooresville Regional Office and he agrees that this may be a good option for monitoring and maintaining the facility during the lull before we are able to begin operation of the Centralized Waste Treatment Facility as permitted. We may have more people on site daily in the second quarter of 2021, at which point, it may be prudent to cease the modification as we are beginning operations of the facility to treat the sanitary waste generated on site. Please contact our contract ORC engineer Kellie Hedrick at 704-607-9181 or kellie.hedrick(cDepscharlotte.com if you have any questions or need further information. Thank you for your consideration.
