Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Lauren Armeni with the Asheville Regional Office conducted a compliance evaluation inspection of the
single-family wastewater disposal system that services Peddler's Square. This inspection was
conducted to determine whether the system is being operated and maintained in compliance with
General NPDES Permit No. NCG550000.
The Change of Ownership form has not been filled out, so another form is being provided.
The vicinity of the effluent pipe was overgrown and the pipe has not been located for years. Please
clear out this area and locate the effluent pipe. Additionally, if flow is present, annual sampling will
need to be conducted.
