PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR-NPDES PERMITS v
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events.
3/Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also_ known as the C1ean.Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq.
Annual Averaee
The 'arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which
is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for .purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Quarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. ' The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples,. etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected; manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour
period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over 'a 24 hour period
with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling
point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and
totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method
may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following
restrictions also apply:
➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters
Version 1011012007 '

' 'ADES Permit Standard Conditions
,— j Page 2 of 16
➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent
grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period.
➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect
effluent grab samples at least every X hours [X = days detention time] over a 24-hour period. Effluent
samples shall be collected at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-
hour sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
activities on the flow device.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean
concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all
grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" for conventional and other non -toxicant parameters. NOTE: Permittees may not
submit a "daily average" calculation [for determining compliance with permit limits] 'for toxicants. See the relevant
Federal effluent guideline[s] for the appropriate calculation interval.
Dail, Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the
permit. The Division expects that sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other
disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week
for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).
DWO or "the Division"
The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
EMC
The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
Facility Closure
The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility, or the cessation of all activities that require coverage
under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded.
Geometric Mean
The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of
calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]") shall be considered = 1.
Grab Sample
Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be
collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream
samples).
Hazardous Substance
Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
Version 10/10/2007

STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. These samples shall be
representative of the wastewater -discharged, during the sample period.
3/Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of
the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et.
seq.
Annual Average
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is
not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The.period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used fot sampling.
Calendar Week
The period from Sunday through the following Saturday.
Calendar Quarter
One•of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 mL in

between grab samples, etc.) on a case-by7 case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite
samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period

calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as
the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the
"daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also
"Composite Sample," above.)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the
permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations
prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that
requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).

Interference
Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which
causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the
Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in
compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(14)]
Pass Through
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with
discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of
the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge
permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)]
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization.
This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal
sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T
.0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government
organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges
to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW
treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of
POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)]
"Significant Industrial User" or "SIU"
An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(33)]:
1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary,
noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or
2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted
flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS
and ammonia; or
3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or
4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely
affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent
limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options;
5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and
conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a
Significant Industrial User (SIU); or
6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a
non -significant categorical Industrial User.

January, 2016
Client: Lynnbrook HOA
NPDES PERMIT NUMBER: NC0071005
Dear Client,
We are pleased to notify you that your facility operated most of the month within your National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. We did experience a result that was greater than
the permit discharge limits. Your permit has both a monthly maximum and a daily maximum. Your
facility exceeded the permit discharge limits on the items listed below:
BOD 57.3 mg/l on the 7"
35.2 mg/1 Monthly Average
FECAL COLIFORM >600 colonies/100 mis on the 7 h
Averaged compliant
This gave a daily maximum violation on one day for two parameters and did give a monthly
violation. We determined that the cause of the violation was due to the torrential rainfall and flash flood
that hit this area. The facility went under water and caused the control panel to have to dry out before the
facility could be restarted. Once restarted, there were several repairs that had to occur to keep the facility
operational. The facility was pumped of the sand and debris and a load of seed was brought in. The
facility regained compliance.
matter.
You may receive a monetary fine for this month. Thank you for your understanding in this
Thank you for choosing James & James as your service company.

IN THE MATTER OF ASSESSMENT
OF CIVIL PENALTIES AGAINST:
LYNBROOK HOA WWTP
ENVIRONMENTAL:; _.,,AGEMENT COMMISSION
DWQ Case Number MV-2009-0006
REQUEST FOR ORAL PRESENTATION
I hereby request to make an oral presentation before the Environmental Management Commission's Committee On Civil Penalty
Remissions in the matter of the case noted above. In making this request, I assert that I understand all of the following
statements:
• This request will be reviewed by the Chairman of the Environmental Management Commission and may be either
granted or denied.
• Making a presentation will -require the presence of myself and/or my representative during a Committee meeting held in
Raleigh, North Carolina.
• _My presentation will be limited to discussion of issues and information submitted in my original remission request, and
because no factual issues are in dispute, my presentation will be limited to five (5) minutes in length. -
The North Carolina State Bar's Authorized Practice of Law Committee has ruled that the appearance in a representative capacity
at quasi-judicial hearings or proceedings is limited to lawyers who are active members of the bar. Proceedings before the
Committee on Remissions are quasi-judicial. You should consider how you intend to present your case to the Committee in light
of the State Bar's opinion and whether.anyone will be speaking in a representative capacity for you or a business or governmental
entity. If you or your representative would like to speak before the Committee, you must complete and return this form within
thirty (30) days of receipt of this letter.
Depending on your status as an individual, corporation, partnership or municipality, the State Bar's Opinion affects how you may
proceed with your oral presentation. See www.ncbar.com/etlucs, Authorized Practice Advisory Opinion 2006-1 and 2007 Formal
Ethics Opinion 3.
• If you are an individual or business owner and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before the
Committee, then you do not need legal representation before the Committee; however, if you intend on having another
individual speak on your behalf regarding the factual situations, such as_ an expert, engineer or consultant, then you must
also be present at the meeting in order to avoid violating the State Bar's Opinion on the unauthorized practice of law.
• If you are a corporation, partnership or municipality and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before
the Committee, then your representative must consider the recent State Bar's Opinion and could be considered practicing
law without a license if he or she is not a licensed attorney. Presentation of facts by non -lawyers is permissible. '
If you choose to request an oral presentation, please make sure that signatures on the previously submitted Remission Request
form and this Oral Presentation Request form are: 1) for individuals and business owners, your own signature and 2) for
corporations, partnerships and municipalities, signed by individuals who would not violate the State Bar's Opinion on the
unauthorized practice of law.
Also, be advised that the Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions may choose not to proceed with hearing your case if the
Committee is informed that a violation of the State Bar occurs.

from the violation:
❑ (c) Whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident:
® (d) Whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations:
Facility response: This sampling, oversight was due to a change in the permit requirements. that was
received after request due to financial hardship. The owner, contract firm, office personnel and
operator all believed this was changed to weekly and made concessions to this. The current permit
was not received until months after renewal and the change to 2/week Cl residuals. was. overlooked.
We regret this oversight and,have made concessions to fix this problem. We request remission of the
penalty due to financial hardship.
ARO Response: The operator of the facility for whatever reason just stopped sampling TRC 2XIweek
and only did TRC IX/week starting in September 2008 through March 2009. Monitoring for TRC
2X/week was in the permit. NOYs for failure to monitor TRC 2X/week for October 2008 through
February 2009 were sent. The penalty assessment was sent for failure to monitor TRC 2X/week for the

Dear Ms. Cantwell;
The NOV dated 7/20/2009 was received by James & James for review of the missed ClAorine
residuals being monitored twice weekly- After an extensive review of our records and an in depth
conversation with the representative of Lynnbrook Estates, the following items are true:
1)13otb we and the client distinctly remember receiving correspondence indicating that once per
week chlorine residuals were all that was required, and
2) The operator of the facility remembers receiving a copy of this correspondence, and
3) A change was made to accommodate the requirements of this letter, and
R) None of us can find a copy of this correspondence.
Therefore, since there is no significant change in the operations of the facility, and we do a
minimum of twice per week chlorines at all facilities, and we do process control testing upstream of
dechlorination, documentation of this data was immediately corrected.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Thank you for your
understanding in this matter.
Thank you, r
Harry & Juanita James

chlorine readings. A letter was received, remembered by both Juanita James and Joan Beck, indicating
that weekly chlorine residuals were required. A change was made at the time by our seasoned operator
to accommodate the requirement. Unfortunately, neither of us can put our hands on that letter. The

We apologize for this oversight. The correction has been enforced.

Dear Mr. Edwards:
In late March, 2009 we were notified that we "were incorrectly monitoring our chlorine
.residual.
I immediately contacted James and James Environmental Services who have handled our
community's plant for all the years I have lived at Lynnbrook. They were in contact with
your office but apparently the correction did not take place until the second week of
April which is reflected by the additional Notice of Violation.
I can assure we're doing every thing we can to stay within the regulations and this was a
misunderstanding that has been corrected.
If I can provide any additional information, please let me know.

Dear Ms. Cantwell,
The Discharge Monitoring Report for the month of October, 2008 to February, 2009 failed to
document two per week chlorine readings. A letter was received, remembered by both Juanita James and
Joan Beck, indicating that weekly chlorine residuals were required. ,A change was made at that time by our
seasoned operator to accommodate the requirement. Unfortunately, neither of us can put our hands on that
letter. The operator made the documentation change immediately. Process control monitoring was already
being conducted for chlorine -
We apologize for this oversight, The correction has been enforced.
if you have additional questions, please contact us. With highest regards, we are

Dear Ms. Beck:
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in the amount of $265.00
($200.00 civil penalty + $65.00 enforcement costs) against Lynnbrook Estates Homeowners
Association.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been conducted of the discharge
monitoring report (DMR) submitted by Lynnbrook Estates Homeowners Association for the month
.of March 2009. This review has shown the subject facility to be in violation of the discharge
limitations and/or monitoring requirements found in NPDES Permit NC0071005. The violations
which occurred in March 2009 are summarized in Attachment A to this letter.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Lynnbrook Estates Homeowners
Association violated the terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES Permit NCO071005 and G.S.
143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner and extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the

person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-
215.1(a).
Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority
provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the
Director of the Division of Water Quality, I, Roger C. Edwards, Division of Water Quality
Regional Supervisor for the Asheville Region, hereby make the following civil penalty assessment

$65.00 Enforcement Costs
$265.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into
account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 14313-
282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or
to private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the
attention of:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification
for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s)
occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty
assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative
hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative
hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please
prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In
determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be
considered:

(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143 B-2 82. 1 (b)
was wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from
the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your -
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of -the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission
of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form
within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Quality also requests that
you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should
be submitted to the following address:

ASSESSMENT FACTORS
As required by G.S. 143-214.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I considered the factors
set out in G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are:
1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to
private property resulting from the violation;
All effluent violations are detrimental to the receiving stream.
2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
Failure to monitor Total Residual Chlorine as required by the permit two times per week.
3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
All effluent violations are detrimental to the receiving stream.
4) The cost.of rectifying, the damage;
The cost is unknown.
5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
The amount of money saved is the cost of doing the required sampling frequency.
6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
This violation could be termed willful since the permit frequency, from the permit dated 2003, was
not observed.
7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which
the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
There have been no penalty enforcements in the past year.
8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

Dear Mr. Edwards:
I am in receipt of your letter of April 27th regarding the problemswith the, monitoring, of the
Chlorine Residual at our Waste Water Treatment Plant.
1, have Contacted James and James Environmental Services who has handled our community's
plant for many, -years.
1, was totally confused. They are here consistently checking,on, our small system - 5 days each
week- and I have absolute confidence in their service. How could they miss this procedure
when every other requirement is in compliance?, I 'am a total novice regarding these
measurements but I definitely remember talking with James & James some years ago and we
discussed the -fact the measuring requiremeritL had changed due to our limited use of -the plant.
I am still looking for any documentation but I'm not sure which report would have contained that
information..
I hope this issue can be resolved.We are a very small community = only 6 homes are attached
to a system which was designed to service more than 20 or more homes.
If I can provide. any. additional information, please let me know,
09
Sincerely, -
C.&

Dear Mrs. Frazier,
This letter is in reference to the Notice of Violation received by James & James Environmental on
September 5, 2006. The violation was for Lynbrook Estates in regard to the elevated Total Suspended
Solids collected on March 31, 2006.
One of the residents at that time was conducting a catering business out of their home. This sent a
great deal of grease to the WWTP and caused the TSS to elevate. This resident is no longer at Lynnbrook
Estates and the other residents is well informed as to the sensitivity of the WWTP.
If you have any additional questions, please contact me. Thank you for your attention in this
matter. With highest regards, I am
Very truly yours,.

Enclosed is the Compliance Evaluation Report of the inspection conducted on April
16, 2008 by staff of the Asheville Regional Office. The facility was found to be . in
Compliance with permit NC0071005.
To prolong longevity of the treatment plant, painting the system's exposed metal
surfaces is recommended. As few houses are connected to the system, each
homeowner has a large capital interest in protecting the existing equipment.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and
comments. If there are questions or matters with which this agency could be of
assistance, please call the writer at 828-296-4651.

The previous compliance evaluation inspection was conducted on 9-11-06 by Janet Cantwell.
Attached is a summary review of the last 12 months of discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) for your
facility. This summary shows the monthly average permit limit (except pH which is 6.0-9.0 and fecal
coliform which is 200 colonies per 100 ml) and the monthly average calculated value reported for each
required parameter.
A review of the files indicates that the permit expires July 31, 2008.
Please request a permit renewal by February 1, 2008.
The Annual Performance Report has been filed for the year.
The aeration basin process control data was as follows on the day of the inspection.
Dissolved Oxygen = 3.1 mg/1
Temperature = 19.2 degrees Celcius
Settleable Solids = 20%
pH = 7.1 units
The effluent data was as follows on the day of the inspection.
Dissolved Oxygen = 4.0 mg/1
Temperature = 18.0 degrees Celcius
Chlorine = < 15 ug/1
pH = 7.4 units
On -site during the inspection were Harry & Juanita James.
The log book was present on -site and had good notation of daily events.
The effluent appeared to be clear, indicating compliance with permit limits.
This facility appears to be well operated and maintained. The operator is doing a good job.

CIVIL PENALTY REMISSION FACTORS
r
Case Number: LV-2016-0165 Region: Asheville County: Polk
Assessed Entity: Lynnbrook Estates WWTP Permit: NCO071005
❑ (a) Whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors were wrongly applied to the
detriment of the petitioner:
❑ (b) Whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the
violation: t.
® (c) Whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident:
The.facility's contract operator stated the area where the WWTP is located experienced heavy rainfall during the
overnight of December 28-29, 2016. Flash flooding resulted from the rainfall, which placed the WWTP under
34 feet of water and left it,affected by deposition of sand and debris. Equipment and'electrical components had
to be repaired or replaced, and the process took time. The facility was not yet in efficient operating condition in
early January 2016, when the samples that resulted in violations were taken.
A review of weather records from the area on the referenced date conf rms that the area near the WWTP did
experience heavy rainfall and flash flooding. If the facility had been affected by such flooding, it is
understandable that it had not returned to optimal performance by early January. Such circumstances are to be
reported to the regional office as required by the permit.
❑ (d) Whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations:
The facility has not been assessed civil penalties during the five years preceding this assessment.
❑ (e) Whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions:

COUNTY OF POLK
IN THE MATTER OF ASSESSMENT
OF CIVIL PENALTIES -AGAINST:
LYNNBROOK HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION
DWR Case Number LV-2016-0165
REQUEST FOR ORAL PRESENTATION
I hereby request to make an oral presentation before the Environmental Management Commission's Committee On Civil Penalty
Remissions in the matter of the case noted above. In making this request, I assert that I understand all of the following statements:
This request will be reviewed by the Chairman of the Environmental Management Commission and may be either granted or
denied.
• Making a presentation will require the presence of myself and/or my representative during a Committee meeting held in Raleigh,
North Carolina.
• My presentation will be limited to discussion of issues and information submitted in my original remission request, and because
no factual issues are in dispute, my presentation will be limited to five (5) minutes in length.
The North Carolina State Bar's Authorized Practice of Law Committee has ruled that the appearance in a representative capacity at,
quasi-judicial hearings or proceedings is limited to lawyers who are active members of the bar. Proceedings before the Committee on
Remissions are quasi-judicial. You should consider how you intend to present your case to the Committee in light of the State Bar's
opinion and whether anyone will be speaking in a representative capacity for you or a business or governmental entity. If you or your
representative would like to speak before the Committee, you must complete and return this form within thirty (30) days of receipt of
this letter.
Depending on your status as an individual, corporation, partnership or municipality, the State Bar's Opinion affects how you may
proceed with your oral presentation. See www.ncbar.com/ethics, Authorized Practice Advisory Opinion 2006-1 and 2007 Formal
Ethics Opinion 3.
If you are an individual or business owner and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before the Committee,
then you do not need legal representation before the Committee; however, if you intend on having another individual speak
on your behalf regarding the factual situations, such as an expert, engineer or consultant, then you must also be present at the
meeting in order to avoid violating the State Bar's Opinion on the unauthorized practice of law.
If you are a corporation partnership or municipality and are granted an opportunity to make an oral presentation before the
Committee, then your representative must consider the recent State Bar's Opinion and could be considered practicing law
without a license if he or she is not a licensed attorney. Presentation of facts by non -lawyers is permissible.
If you choose to request an oral presentation, please make sure that signatures on the previously submitted Remission Request form
and this Oral Presentation Request form are: 1) for individuals and business owners, your own signature and 2) for corporations,
partnerships and municipalities, signed by individuals who would not violate the State Bar's Opinion on the unauthorized practice of
law.
Also, be advised that the Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions may choose not to proceed with hearing your case if the Committee
is informed that a potential violation of the statute concerning the authorized practice of law has occurred.

Dear Mr. Davidson,
This letter is fi response to the above NOV dated August 25, 2016 and received by James & James on or
about September 6, 2016. The violation was for the month of January 2016.
This NOV was based solely upon an Act of God. The facility received a torrential rainfall and a flash flood,
the end of D,pcember 28, 2015. Tehhefasility went uhder water and uauch sand and debris wasplaced-into_
Ft etFfac_ilityJne water overcomes the facility by some 3-4 feet. Due to this fact, the electrical portion of
the f cility had to dry out before the facility could be restarted. Once the facility was accessible, our
maintenance assessed the damage and repaired or replaced' the inoperable components. This included the
wiring to the panel and cleaning the contactor. The facility continued to trip out and the 40 amp breaker
was replaced and the contactor cleaned again.
Mike's Septic was contacted, and once the -ground dried enough to get the pump truck back out, he pumped
3600 gallons and brought back in a load of seed.
This rain was neither expected nor predicted in advance. The warning was received about 30 minutes
before the event occurred from the Weather Service. There were no advanced procedures that we could
have performed to have prevented this issue. The owner of the facility was quick to approve any and all
necessary repairs to the facility and those repairs occurred as it was safe to proceed.
We would appreciate consideration of any assessments.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
-'th highest regards,

Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may
relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper
procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in
the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and
agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you
believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below.
In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:

applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or

Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The
Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of
your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and
provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and
thorough statement in support of your request for remission.

Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thk!y Q 0) days of receipt of this

NPDES PERMIT NUMBER: NC0071005
Dear Client,
We are pleased to notify you that your facility operated most of the month within your National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. We did experience a result that was greater than
the permit discharge limits. Your permit has both a monthly maximum and a daily maximum. Your
facility exceeded the permit discharge limits on the items listed below:
BOD 57.3 mg/1 on the 7ffi
3 5.2 mg/1 Monthly Average
FECAL COLIFORM >600 colonies/100 mis on the 7t'
Averaged compliant
This gave a daily maximum violation on one day for two parameters and did give a monthly
violation. We determined that the cause of the violation was due to the torrential rainfall and flash flood
that hit this area. The facility went under water and caused -the control panel to have to dry out before the
facility could be restarted. Once restarted, there were several repairs that had to occur to keep the facility
operational. The facility was pumped of the sand and debris and a load of seed was brought in. The
facility regained compliance.
You may receive a monetary fine for this month. Thank you for your understanding in this
matter.
Thank you for choosing James & James as your service company.
