Such being the case, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection of your system and your records in order to verify that your system is operating properly and to determine the compliance status of the system pursuant to your NCG550455 permit. We anticipate such an inspection would take approximately one hour, provided that all needed documentation and data is readily available at the time of the site visit. Due to the difficulties involved with scheduling inspections with homeowners who work during the workday, I would like to pre-schedule this site visit with you to ensure we can meet and complete the inspection as expeditiously as possible. In order to set up a time that will be beneficial to your schedule,please contact me at 704-663-1699,between the hours of 8AM and 5PM,Monday through Friday to set up the best possible time for me to visit your residence. Also, in the interest of conducting the most efficient inspection possible,we ask that you have the following items on hand at the time of the site visit. These items include the following: 1.

Mr. Ron Boone of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Mooresville Regional Office (MRO) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the wastewater treatment system (WWTS) that serves your single family residence (SFR) on 25 June 2008. Your cooperation and assistance during the CEI was greatly appreciated. This letter is a summary/follow up for the CEI and inspection checklists are attached for your records. 2. Inspection of the system revealed only two concerns: A. The chlorine tablets you are currently using are for swimming pools and are not rated for use in wastewater treatment. You should begin using tablets specifically formulated for wastewater treatment. These tablets can often be found in plumbing supply stores or companies that offer well drilling or septic system construction services. The correct tablets will explicitly specify application to wastewater treatment on the outside of the container. Please be sure to carefully read all container labels and strictly adhere to all safety precautions for chlorine disinfection chemicals. B. Analytical monitoring is not being conducted in accordance with Part I(A) of the permit. You must complete this monitoring annually using a NC certified laboratory. 3. No other discrepancies were noted during the inspection. The system appears to be well operated and maintained. There were no signs of system failure noted. 4. Please take all steps necessary to correct the discrepancies noted above in paragraph 2. You should be aware that failure to comply with any condition of your permit (NCG550535) constitutes a failure to comply with NC General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.1, for which the Department has been delegated the authority to assess civil penalties not to exceed $25,000 per day, per violation, in accordance with NCGS 143-215.6A. orn` NthCarolina Naturally North Carolina Division of Water Quality Mooresville Regional Office Surface Water Protection Phone(704)663-1699 Customer Service Internet: h2o.enr.state.nc.us 610 East Center Avenue,Suite 301 Mooresville,NC 28115 FAX (704)663-6040 1-877-623-6748 An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer—50%Recycled/10%Post Consumer Paper NCG550797 uompuance nvaivanon mspecuon,z i Jun 5.

(Include specifics for each check; to include:type,dimensions,treatment amounts,design volumes,retention times for each system,manufacture's specifics and contractor's specifics) Existing treatment facilities should be described in detail and design criteria or operational data should be provided (including calculations) to ensure that the facility can comply with requirements of the General Permit.The following are the minimum design requirements needed for each of the treatments listed above: a.Septic Tank; Minimum tank septic tank size shall be 750 gallons for two bedrooms and 900 gallons for three bedrooms. The Division recommends the use of a 900 gallon tank for a two bedroom and a 1200 gallon tank for a three bedroom unit. If excavation into bedrock is necessary for the septic tank or sand filter then a liner of at least 10 mm thickness shall be provided for the septic tank and/or sand filter. b.Sand Filters(dual sand and recirculating sand filters); These shall be used to provide secondary treatment. For the dual sand filters, the first filter shall be able to handle 1.15 GPD per square foot of filter and the second filter shall be able to handle 2.3 GPD per square foot. These dual sand filters shall be in series. The Recirculating*Sand Filter should be able to handle 5.0 GPD per square foot with no more than a 3:1 recirculating ratio. Sand shall conform to the Division's standards of 0.35 to 0.5 mm effective size,3.0 uniformity coefficient,and 0.5%dust content. c. Chlorination; The chlorine contact chamber shall have at least a 30 minute detention time. The volume should be calculated as follows: Volume(gallons)=(design flow x 0.5)/ 24 hours.. Discharge pipe from the chlorinator shall be perforated. d.Cascade aeration should consist of a 5 step concrete trough but may also be made of rip rap. NOTE: Construction of any wastewater treatment facilities require submission of three(3)sets of plans and specifications along with their application. Design of treatment facilities must comply with requirement 15A NCAC 2H .0138.
