permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994, or as subsequently
amended.
Corrections to Draft Permit — Please note that this final permit includes effluent limits for fecal coliform bacteria of 200/100
ml (Monthly Average) and 400/100 ml (Daily Maximum). These limits were inadvertently omitted from the draft permit.
Also note that BOD and TSS limits appeared in error as Weekly Averages; these have been correct to reflect Daily
Maximum limits [see Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements, A. (1.)].
The Division has approved your Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) submitted with your application by your
consultant, McGill Associates. Please be reminded that you must apply to the Division for an Authorization to Construct
(ATC) permit and receive approval prior to beginning construction. Due to staff shortages, the Division may require ninety
(90) days or longer to review all required plans and specifications.
If any parts, measurement frequencies, or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right
to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days after receiving this letter. Your request must be in the
form of a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and must be filed with the
office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714. Unless such a demand is
made, this permit shall be final and binding.
This permit is not transferable except after notifying the Division of Water Quality. The Division may require modification,
or revocation and re -issuance of this permit. Please notice that this permit does not affect your legal obligation to obtain other

PART II
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.
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 Clean Water Act, 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 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 sainple 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. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary
less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart
during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method
requires prior approval by the Director.
Version 6/20/2003

NPDES Permit Requirements

In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems
having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at
intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the
system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor
the number of samples less than four 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 122.3)
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. 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).
DWQ 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.
Instantaneous flow measurement
A measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total
discharge.
Version 6/20/2003

The Permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance resources necessary to operate the existing
facilities at optimum efficiency. The Permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and
systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the Permittee to
achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate
laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the Permittee to install
and operate backup or auxiliary facilities only when necessary *to achieve compliance with the conditions of the
permit [40 CFR 122.41 (e)].
3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense
It shall. not be a defense for a Permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or
reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this permit [40 CFR 122.41
(c)].
4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Bypass not exceeding limitations [40 CFR 122.41 (m) (2)]
The Permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but
only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the
provisions of Paragraphs b. and c. of this section.
b. Notice [40 CFR 122.41 (m) (3)]
(1) Anticipated bypass. If the Permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior
notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the
anticipated quality and effect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The Permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part
IL E. 6. (24-hour notice).
c. Prohibition of Bypass
(1) Bypass from the treatment facility is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement
action against a Permittee for bypass, unless:
(A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss oflife, personal injury or severe property damage;
(B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities,
retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This
condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of
reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of
equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and
(C) The Permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph b. of this section.
(2) Bypass from the collection system is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement
action against a Permittee for a bypass as provided in any current or future system -wide collection system

Denial of Renewal Request
NPDES Permit NC0087688
Wolf Laurel Commercial Park WWTP
Madison County
In 2003, Division staff approved an Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) for the Wolf Laurel
Commercial Park WWTP based on plans to construct two 100-room hotels, a 50-seat restaurant, a 10,000
square foot strip mall, and a service station with fast food restaurant. As stated in our March 30, 2007
Request for Additional Information, none of the proposed projects have been constructed and at least a
portion of the property appears to be for sale. Therefore the Division considers the previously approved
EAA to be obsolete. In the March letter, Division staff requested that you submit a revised EAA within
45 days (May 14, 2007). During the course of the 45 days, Division staff spoke with William Sparrow of
Bugg & Wolf P.A. and agreed to grant an additional 15 days. The revised deadline for submittal was
May 29, 2007.
As of June 11, 2007, we have not received the requested information. As stated in the March 30
letter, and based on the abovementioned factors, your request for renewal of NPDES permit NC0087688
is hereby denied. The previously issued permit is retroactively considered void as of September 30, 2005
(the date of its expiration).
If any part of this final decision is unacceptable to you, you.have the right to an adjudicatory
hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be
in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and
filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina

Subject: Wolf Laurel Commercial Park WWTP, NC0087688
Recommendation for denial of permit application
The abovementioned permit was first issued on October 23, 2003 with an expiration date of
September 30, 2005. In July 2005 the permittee was assessed a civil penalty of $500 for failure to
renew the NPDES permit. In March 2006, the applicant submitted the renewal application. A
public hearing was requested and held for this permit and the Scenic Wolf Mountain WWTP.
Shortly after the hearing, it became known to Division staff that the facility owner was not the
individual that submitted the application, that construction on the project had not yet begun,
andthat the property appeared to be for sale. Staff requested that the proper owner submit a
permit renewal application. Staff also requested that the applicant submit a revised EAA
including a full flow justification to demonstrate the need for a discharge permit. The permittee
was given 45 days to respond. During the course of the 45 days, the applicant's attorney
contacted Division staff and requested additional time. DWQ granted an additional 15 days.
The revised EAA was due on May 29, 2007.
Given the fact that the scope of the project may have changed, the need for a discharge permit
has not been demonstrated, and the property appears to be for sale, staff considered the
previously approved EAA to be obsolete. Since a new EAA has not been submitted, NPDES
Permitting staff recommends that the applicant's request for permit renewal be denied.

Loc`ai Government Review Requirement's
for the Issuance of New Non -Municipal Domestic Wastewater Discharge Permits
General Statute Overview
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 (c)(6) allows input from local governments in the issuance of NPDES Permits for non -
municipal domestic wastewater treatment facilities. Specifically, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) may not act
on an application for a new non -municipal domestic wastewater discharge facility until it has received a written statement from,
each city and county government having jurisdiction over any part of the lands on which the proposed facility and its
appurtenances are to be located. The written statement shall document whether the city or county has a zoning or subdivision
ordinance in effect and (if such an ordinance is in effect) whether the_proposed facility is consistent with the ordinance. The
EMC shall not approve a permit application for any facility which a city or county has determined to be inconsistent with zoning
or subdivision ordinances unless the approval of such application is determined to have statewide significance and is in the best
interest of the State.
Instructions to the Applicant
Prior to submitting an application for a NPDES Permit for a proposed facility, the applicant shall request that both the
nearby city and county government complete this form.
The applicant must:
• Submit a copy of the permit application (with a written request for this form to be completed) to the clerk of the
city and the county by certified mail, return receipt requested.
• If either (or both) local government(s) fail(s) to mail the completed form, as evidenced by the postmark on the
certified mail card(s), within 15 days after receiving and signing for the certified mail, the applicant may submit the
application to the NPDES Unit.
• As evidence to the Commission that the local government(s) failed to respond within 15 days, the applicant shall
submit a copy of the certified mail card along with a notarized letter stating that the local government(s) failed to
respond within the 15-day period.
Instructions to the Local Government
The nearby city and/or county government which may have or has jurisdiction over any part of the land on which the

However, if the costs are the same in every time period from year one through year n (i.e., Ct = C, a constant for t
1,2,..., n), then the formula reduces to:
PV=C +C (1+r)"-1l
r(l+r)",
In this case, the present value may also be looked up in a table containing the present value of annuities (an annuity is a
constant amount payable in each year for a certain number of years). Such tables are available from financial
institutions.
Appendix B
Soil Analysis Report Requirements
For all new facilities
The EAA must include a detailed soil analysis report including, but not be limited to, the following:
• A copy of field notes and boring log information
• A soils site map overlain on a topographic map (county soil maps may be used for delineating boring
locations only, not for soil characterization).
• Soil characterization in terms of texture, structure, permeability, wetness and mineralogy
• Soil characterization to a depth of 48" or to a restrictive horizon
• Soil loading rate recommendations and land area requirements
The report should address the applicability of any surface or subsurface disposal alternative.
For existing facilities proposing an expansion
The EAA must include a detailed soil analysis report including, but not be limited to, the following:
• County soil maps used to identify on -site soils.
• Best -case loading rates using these soil characterizations.
• PVCA (see above).
If the present value for a non -discharge alternative is less than for a discharge system, provide a more detailed soil
analysis report including the following:
• A copy of field notes and boring log information
• A soils site map overlain on a topographic map (county soil maps may be used for delineating boring
locations only, not for soil characterization). •
• Soil characterization in terms of texture, structure, permeability, wetness and mineralogy
• Soil characterization to a depth of 48" or to a restrictive horizon
• Soil loading rate recommendations and land area requirements

E. Disposal Combinations: The EAA should evaluate the feasibility of a combination of any of the above
disposal alternatives in lieu of a surface water discharge.
Appendix A
Present Value of Costs
The Present Value of Costs Analysis (PVCA) is meant to evaluate all costs associated with a particular disposal
alternative over the life of the project. Prior to performing a PVCA for any of the alternatives, all costs .must be
identified. The PVCA should include all monetary costs associated with construction, startup and operation of a
facility. Costs should include, but not be limited to, the following:
Capital Costs
• Land acquisition costs
• Equipment costs
• Labor costs
• Installation costs
• Design costs'
Recurring Costs
• Operation and maintenance costs (with replacement costs)
• Laboratory costs assuming a weekly monitoring regime for discharge systems and a monthly regime for non -
discharge systems
■ Operator and support staff costs
• Residual disposal costs
• Connection and subsequent user fees
• Permit and compliance fees
• Utility costs (power, water, etc.)
Opportunity Costs
NOTE: All cost information provided must be referenced. If vender quotes have been
received for treatment units or other components, they shall be included as well.
Present Value of Costs
Costs incurred in different time periods must be converted to a common time period before they 'can be accurately
combined or compared. Performing this calculation is known as "computing the present value," or "discounting" the
costs. Present value is also sometimes called "present discounted value" or "present worth".
The following standard formula for computing the present value must be used in all cost estimates made under this
evaluation guidance:
Where:
PV= C + C'
° ,_1 (1 + r)`
PV = Present value of costs. Co = Costs incurred in the present year.
Ct = Costs incurred in time t. t = Time period after the present year ( The present year is t = 0)
n = Ending year of the life of the facility.
r = Discount rate. For these calculations, an interest rate quoted by the lending institution should be used.
The interest rate quote should be provided with this analysis.,

A. Connection to a Sewer Collection System (served by a municipality or other entity holding a valid NPDES or
Non -Discharge Permit).
1. Existing Sewerage System: Indicate the distance to an existing sewer line within a five -mile radius
(extension of radius should be considered if cost effective for project size).
*NOTE: All connection options should include an evaluation of both a gravity line as well as a force
main with pump station(s).
(a) Provide a description of sewer facilities and resources necessary to connect to the receiving wastewater
treatment plant.
(b) Provide a preliminary indication of flow acceptance from municipal or private WWTPs under consideration for
connection. If a municipal or private WWTP cannot accept the wastewater, please explain.
(c) Attach a topographic map or a site drawing showing the physical route of this alternative.
(d) Perform a Present Value of Costs Analysis for this alternative as outlined in Appendix A of this document.
Investigate cost -sharing options with other potential users.
2. Planned Sewerage System: Determine if an area wide sewerage system within a five mile radius is
projected to be available within the next five years to receive waste from the project under study.
Determine availability date and flow acceptance projection with appropriate authority. Identify your
contact in the public utility or private management group that assisted you in this determination.
B. Land Based Disposal (Installation of nitriflcation systems, low pressure pipe systems, drip irrigation, mound
systems, and spray irrigation systems).
1. Determine if the applicant currently owns land that is available and suitable for a subsurface system.
(a) Provide a description of the facilities and resources necessary including a site plan indicating the 'proposed
layout.
(b) Provide a soil analysis that includes the information outlined in Appendix B of this document.
(c) Provide calculations to determine the disposal capacity of the applicant's available land, based on design and
loading rate characteristics as well as appropriate regulations.
(d) Describe what modifications to the plan (such as reducing the number of units produced, the reduction of
design flow, etc.) would be necessary to allow for adequate disposal using usable land on the site. This step
should be performed if there is insufficient usable land, considering the existing project development plan. If
there is not sufficient usable land, explain why not.
(e) Perform a Present Value of Costs Analysis for this alternative as outlined in Appendix A of this document.
2. If there is insufficient land on the project site, determine if any additional land could be acquired.
Provide documentation of availability. If adjacent land could be acquired, evaluate according to item B
(1). If adjacent land is unavailable, provide documentation from the owner stating such.
NOTE: Subsurface disposal systems require a,100% reserve area. Surface disposal systems must be
capable of treatment to secondary limits including disinfection.
C. Wastewater Reuse Evaluate reusing all or a portion of the wastewater generated on -site.
D. Surface Water Discharge (a discharge to a flowing stream - defined as having positive 7Q10 and 30Q2 flows).
1. USGS should be consulted for obtaining receiving stream flow information. This information should be
provided in conjunction with treatment plant design..For flow information contact Mr. Curtis Weaver at
[phone].
2. All discharging systems should be evaluated both with and without tertiary filtration assuming a weekly
sampling regime.
3. Provide a description of the proposed discharge facilities, including a schematic diagram of the major
components and a site plan of the treatment facility with outfall line(s). All discharge systems must meet
design criteria outlined in the Division's "Authorization to Construct Process."
4. Provide documentation of the availability of required land and/or easement agreements.
5. Perform a Present Value of Costs Analysis for this alternative in accordance with Appendix A of this
document.

NC DENR / Division of Water Quality / NPDES Unit
ENGINEERING ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS (EAA) Guidance Document
It is the Division's mandate to assure the most environmentally sound alternative be selected from all reasonably cost-
effective options. Prior to the issuance of an NPDES discharge permit, complete justification for the discharge must
be made through a comprehensive Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA).
The NPDES permit program was developed as a result of the Clean Water Act of 1972. The original goal of the
program (as outlined in the Act) was the elimination of all surface water point source discharges by 1985. Although
we have not achieved this goal, we continue to strive toward it. In that light, the completion of an EAA is a
requirement of any individual or organization applying for a new or expanding NPDES discharge permit (Title 15A
NCAC 2H.0105 (c) (2)). The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to the regulated community for the
evaluation of wastewater disposal alternatives. The following outline should be used in the preparation of EAAs.
In the past, the environmental feasibility and economic feasibility of a particular disposal'option have been segregated.
These should not be treated as mutually exclusive analyses. They are dependent on one another. When evaluating
any of the alternatives discussed below, both environmental and economic feasibility should be addressed.
The following is an outline to be used in preparing an EAA. If any EAA submitted lacks any of these basic pieces of
information, it will be returned as incomplete.
I. General Information
A. Basic Identification of the Project
• Facility name
• County
• Facility address
• Facility telephone number
• EAA preparer's name, mailing address and telephone number
B. Provide a detailed description of the project's wastewater disposal needs. All wastewater flows associated
with this project should be calculated in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219. Justification and demonstration
of need should be provided for expected flow volumes including any flow reductions realized through use of
flow restricting devices. For all alternatives, the use of flow -restricting or low -flow devices should be
investigated. A report of the findings should include flow reduction projections.
C. If existing facilities will be used as part of an expansion, discuss those existing units including present and
past performance, unit capacities and inadequacies and provide a schematic with component sizes.
D. Indicate if the project will be constructed in phases. Provide the estimated wasteflow per phase. Indicate
current phase status for existing facilities and provide a schedule for construction of each additional phase.,
II. Evaluation of Disposal Alternatives
The Engineering Alternatives Analysis should include an evaluation of any and all disposal alternatives. The
analysis should address all of the following options:
• Connection to a Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
• Connection to a privately owned treatment works
• Individual subsurface systems
• Community subsurface systems
• Drip irrigation - both surface & subsurface
• Spray irrigation
• Reuse
• Surface water discharge through the NPDES program
• Any possible combination of the above options

4. Attach a site map clearly showing the proposed discharge point (a section of a USGS topo map is
preferred).
5. A process flow diagram of the WWTP, including proposed components sizes and a facility layout.
6. A completed Local Government Review form [included in the EAA Guidance Document].

As I mentioned on the phone, the permit renewal was denied on 6/20/2007 [e-copy of denial letter is
attached].
If Mr. Satterfield wishes to apply for a new permit, I have attached the necessary documents.
The Owner of the property [Mr. Satterfield, or the person who will be legally reposnible for the
permit] should sign the application forms. The Owner may designate another individual [in writing] to
act as his/her Authorized Representative; if so, that person can sign the permit application.
The permit application fee will be $860.00. Fees must be paid by check to NC DENR.
Submit the original (signed) application and two copies,
any designation of you as Authorized Representative and two copies,
along with three copies of any of documents listed below:
1. An evaluation of alternatives to discharge is required for all new or expanding facilities. Consult
the attached guidance document for preparation of Engineering Alternatives Analyses (EAAs).
2. Supply the most current USGS flow data available for the receiving stream. Contact Curtis Weaver
at USGS [[phone]] if you do not have current flow data. NO new discharge permits can be
issued for streams with a 7Q10 <0.05 cfs.
3. Consult the French Broad River Basin plan (on the Division of Water Quality website:
http://www.ncwaterquality.org/basinwide/french broad/french broad basin.htm) for the status of the
receiving stream segment. If the stream is impaired from its stated uses, this may prevent the issuance
of a new NPDES permit.

Denial of Renewal Request
NPDES Permit NC0087688
Wolf Laurel Commercial Park WWTP
Madison County
In 2003, Division staff approved an Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) for the Wolf Laurel
Commercial Park WWTP based on plans to construct two 100-room hotels, a 50-seat restaurant, a 10,000
square foot strip mall, and a service station with fast food restaurant. As stated in our March 30, 2007
Request for Additional Information, none of the proposed projects have been constructed and at least a
portion of the property appears to be for sale. Therefore the Division considers the previously approved
EAA to be obsolete. In the March letter, Division staff requested that you submit a revised EAA within
45 days (May 14, 2007). During the course of the 45 days, Division staff spoke with William Sparrow of
Bugg & Wolf P.A. and agreed to grant an additional 15 days. The revised deadline for submittal was
May 29, 2007.
As of June 11, 2007, we have not received the requested information. As stated in the March 30E
letter, and based on the abovementioned factors, your request for renewal of NPDES permit NC0087688
is hereby denied. The previously issued permit is retroactively considered void as of September 30, 2005
(the date of its expiration).
If any part of this final decision is unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory
hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be
in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and
filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina
27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.

The Division has reviewed your request forrenewal of this NPDES permit. Before we can
complete our review, we need some additional information. In 2003, DWQ approved the Engineering
Alternatives Analysis (EAA) based on plans to construct two 100-room hotels, a 50-seat restaurant, a
10,000 square foot strip mall, and a service station with fast food restaurant. At this time none of the
proposed projects have been constructedand at least a portion of the property appears to be for sale.
Based on this information, the Division considers the previously approved EAA to be obsolete.
Please develop and submit a revised EAA thatincludes the following items:
> Flow justification for the requested 30,000 gallons per day of wastewater.
> A projected construction schedule for any proposed projects.
> Evidence of ownership for the referenced parcels of land. '
> An evaluation of the feasibility of using the same method of wastewater disposal as is currently
being used by the gas station across from the property on US Highway 23.
> Evaluation of the feasibility of connection to the Scenic Wolf Mountain WWTP.
> A description of how the site will comply with the stormwater requirements for high quality
waters (15A NCAC 02H .1006) which are now required as a result of the hearing officer's
recommendations.
Please provide a response including the above information within 45 days. If an EAA is not
approved, this permit may be modified or denied. If we do not receive a response to this request, the
permit may be denied. The Division will delay action on this permit until a revised EAA is approved.. If
you have any questions about this project, feel free to contact Toya Fields at [phone] x 551, or via

Dear Mr. Lashua:
It has come to my attention that there may be an apparent holdup of service to the subject project based
on a pending letter from the Division regarding the sewer permit certification. 15A NCAC 2H .0220 and
the permit condition pertaining to Engineering Certifications states that the Division need only receive a
completed engineering certification prior to operation. Please note that the Division does not and cannot
always acknowledge receipt of engineering certifications in a manner that would be timely enough for
operation of the system. The letter we send is simply an acknowledgment of receipt of a completed final
engineering certification. Please note for future that we are not acknowledging partial certifications with
a letter and we will eventually acknowledge final certifications, but operation of the systems should not
be dependent on this letter.
To date, we have not held up operation of any sewer system based on a certification although in many
cases, additional information and possibly correction of flagrant problems has been requested. Because
we cannot immediately acknowledge receipt, we request on the required certification forms that the
engineer send the certification in a manner they can acknowledge receipt. However, all certifications
are logged into our system. For this project, we received an incomplete and misdirected certification. A
letter was sent to Mr. Coxey on October 25, 2005 on which you were copied. A response was received
November 29, 2005. A message was left for Mr. Coxey December 12, 2005 indicating we received the
response and explaining our procedures on acknowledging certifications. Today was the first I heard
(via message from a Mr. Hancock and discussion with Mr.Coxey) that CWS was waiting on us.
We are in receipt of a completed certification for Wolf Laurel. Upon reviewing the documents received
November 29, 2005 from Mr. Coxey, it appears all our requests have been addressed. Although, the
only item I would highlight to you is that the force main depth is certified at 30" - 36" where our
minimum cover requirement is 36". Depending on the frost depth in that area, CWS may wish to require
this be corrected to avoid future problems. The certifying engineer should be aware of the design and
installation requirements and ensure all are met in the field.
If you have any questions about the certification process or this project in particular, please do not
hesitate to contact me. I will return Mr. Hancock's call and indicate this message was sent.,
Sincerely,
Marie Doklovic

Dear Permittee:
November 29, 2004
Subject: Renewal Notice
NPDES Permit NCOO87688
Wolf Laurel Commercial Park
Madison County
Your NPDES permit expires on September 30, 2005. Federal (40 CFR 122.41) and North Carolina (15A NCAC
2H.O1O5(e)) regulations require that permit renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of
the current permit. If you have already mailed your renewal application, you may disregard this notice.
To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package must be sent to the Division postmarked no later than April
3, 2005. Failure to request renewal by this date may result in a civil assessment of at least $500.00. Larger penalties
may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
If any wastewater discharge will occur after September 30, 2005, the current permit must be renewed.
Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1; unpermitted
discharges of wastewater may be assessed civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If all wastewater discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this permit, contact me at the
telephone number or address listed below.
Use the enclosed checklist to complete your renewal package. The checklist identifies the items you must
submit with the permit renewal application. If you have any questions, please contact me at the telephone number or

FACT SHEET FOR NEW NPDES PERMIT DEVELOPMENT
NPDES Permit No. NC0087688
INTRODUCTION
Wolf Laurel Properties, LLC (herein referred to as the Permittee or Wolf Laurel), requires a National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit to dispose treated wastewater to the surface
waters ofthe state. The Permittee has requested a new permit from the Division of Water Quality (the
Division) for its proposed Wolf Laurel Commercial Park in Madison County. This Fact Sheet summarizes
background information and rationale used by the Division's NPDES Unit to determine permit limits and
monitoring conditions. This document also contains references to information sources relevant to this
permit renewal (superscripted numbers in order of appearance, See References).
FACILITY RECORDS REVIEW
Facility Description. After receiving an Authorization to Construct (ATC) permit from the Division,
Wolf Laurel Commercial Park (Table 1) proposes to discharge treated domestic wastewater from a 0.030
million -gallons -per -day (MGD) wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) supporting a hotel, store and
restaurant complex. The treatment system is tentatively proposed to consist of a manual bar screen; two
7,500-gallon flow -equalization tanks; two 15,000-gallon aeration tanks, two clarifiers; chlorine -contact
chamber; a dechlorination system; and a sludge digester.

PERMITTING APPROACH SUMMARY
Verifying Existing Stream Conditions. This facility proposes to discharge to Big Laurel Creek [stream
segment 6-112], a Class C-Trout stream within the French Broad River Basin. Big laurel Creek is not
listed by the state as an "impaired" waterbody [not 303(d) listed].5 The closest permitted dischargers are on
the Wolf Branch of Puncheon Fork located over six river miles upstream (NC0082716; NC0076431) and
also over six miles upstream on Big Laurel Creek (NC0083712).
Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) The Permittee's EAA was received March 14, 2003, was
reviewed by Wanda P. Frazier of the Asheville Regional Office (ARO), and also by the NPDES Unit. This
EAA is hereby approved and the Division awaits a request from the Permittee for an Authorization to
Construct (ATC) permit for the new wastewater treatment system.
Waste Load Allocation (WLA). The Division prepared a WLA for this new, Class II discharge and
developed effluent limits and monitoring requirements based on an in -stream waste concentration (IWC) of
1.28 %. Waste flow proposed at 0:030 MGD was compared to low -flow characteristics estimated for Big
Laurel Creek at the discharge location (see USGS low -flow characteristics area HA-10).6 Using Level B
Modeling, the Division evaluated wasteloads for oxygen -consuming wastes and verified that "secondary
limits" protect the receiving stream with BOD5 and TSS each limited at 30.0 mg/L Monthly Average and
45.0 mg/L Weekly Average. Modeling also suggested that dissolved oxygen (DO) monitoring will not be
required at this time but the model recommended ammonia (NH3-N) monitoring, no limit. Similarly, fecal
coliform bacteria shall be monitored but not limited.
In addition, the Division added Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) monitoring with a permit limit of 28 µ.g/L
(see Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements). Due to relatively high dilution, (IWC 1.28 %), this
facility is not required to monitor the receiving stream. Similarly, Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) testing
will not be required at this time.

Use the enclosed checklist to complete your renewal package. The checklist identifies the items you

Return # 2176
Dear Mr. English:
The Division is returning your NPDES permit application request for a new surface water discharge to Big
Laurel Creek in the French Broad River Basin. This was a re -submittal NPDESof an Unit,arlier Di qui nest for has a ddireemined that tct dischargeheee
return #2163 dated June 4, 2002). After a review by members of
e
package lacks the following items:
• Soils survey for non -discharge calculations. An application rate for non -discharge options was provided
in your most recent submittal, but there is no supporting documentation for this rate. A minimum
requirement for all new dischargers is the submittal of a soils report by a certified soil scientist in order
that we may properly evaluate your description of any non -discharge options.
• In calculating the land needed for non -discharge options, a repair area was included. Such an area would
not be needed for a spray or drip irrigation system. You must calculate the necessary land for both spray
and drip systems separately from any system requiring a repair area. A map indicating the necessary
buffer areas should be included with the calculations.
• Separate present value cost estimates (in addition to the available land estimates described above) must
be provided for the following non -discharge options:
■ Spray irrigation
■ Drip irrigation
• Subsurface disposal
Moreover, present value costs should beincluded for any and all alternatives listed in your Engineering
Alternatives Analysis (EAA).
• The present value costs for the direct discharge (NPDES) option must include monitoring costs and annual
fees associated with the program.

reasonable acceptance rate of 0.23 GPD/SF, 30,000 GPD will
require 3 acres of undisturbed and unpaved suitable land.
Total land project site is 9.61 acres. Considering the 50 ft.
Stream margin and the 10 ft property line margin, we
calculated the area required for Land -based disposal as follows;
2650 LF stream bank by 50 ft. = 132,500 SF
2900 LF property line by 10 ft. = 29,000 SF
Total 161,500 SF or 3.7 Ac.
Working disposal area 3 Ac.
Repair area 3 Ac.
Total area required 9.7 Ac.
Which is greater than the total tract of 9.61 Ac. so there is
no land available for this alternative.
(b) A soils report would be useless.
(c) See II. B. 1. (a) above.
(d) Modify the plan: the site cost $300,000 several years ago when
the Interstate and Exit was only a plan. When I-26 is
completed next year, the value, based on the Appraisal in the
Pro -forma is a little over $1 million (115,600/Ac.). If the
Project could be cut in half, 4.85 acres would be required for
land disposal, giving an immediate loss to the Owner of
$560,000. Then there would be a continuing loss of income
2

from operations and appreciation of value of property and
Improvements that could amount to millions of dollars over 30
years.
Documentation: appendix A.
(e) We cannot perform a Present Value Cost Analysis for an
ALTERNATIVE that does not exist.
2. The only adjacent land that is not DOT is owned and totally occupied
by Jenkins Nursery. The Anglin tract across the creek from Lot A is
mostly swamp (water on the surface at all times).
Documentation see appendix B.
C Wastewater reuse: There is no non -potable water use in the proposed facilities.
The scope of the project is such that $20,000 to $30,000 could be allocated
to install a recirculating filter system for laundry graywater, a 2000 GPD
reduction.
D Surface water discharge:
1. The drainage basin area upstream, taken from USGS Quad. sheets, is
5.8 sq. mi.. Mr. Curtis Weaver supplied the flow information
previously determined for the Big Laurel Creek basin as 7Q10 @ 0.45
cfs / sq. mi. and the 30 Q10 @ 0.21 cfs / sq. mi.. This translates to
flows of 3.32 cfs and 7.11 cfs respectively.
2. Tertiary Filtration is not so costly as to preclude its implementation if
required.
3. The Treatment System will consist of dual 15,000 GPD WWTPs each
consisting of: Flow equalization tank
15,000 gal aeration tank
Clarifier
Chlorine` contact tank
Declorination
See sketch plan, Appendix D.
4. Survey and Site Plans, Appendix E.
5. Present Value Cost Analysis: See appendix F.
E. Disposal Combinations: There are no alternatives to combine.

I was recently contacted by Mr. Orville English about sewer service to his property
located on Highway 19/23 (soon to become I-26) near the intersection with Bear Branch Road.
Our municipal service is not available to this property since it is located some eight (8) miles
from the corporate limits of the Town of Mars Hill.
In order for sewer service to be made available to development outside of the Town, the
property owner(s) must petition to come into the Town limits. This cannot be accomplished for
the Bear Branch Road property even by satellite annexation because of the distance from Town.
If you have questions or I can provide additional information, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
Sincerely,

Dear Orville and David:
Following is the report of our study of the two remainder parcels of land on the east side of the
New 1-26 Bear Branch Road intersection titled to Ray Alan Hensley. The approximately seven
acre tract is identified. as Parcel A, and the three acre tract as Parcel B.
We have inspected this property, gone over the maps with NCDOT Engineers, and cardfully
researched the market for previous sales of similar properties located at other interstate highway
interchanges overthe years. Applying accepted appraisal standards and practices, we estimate
that the two parcels should have a current value of
Parcel A • $830,000
Parcel B 277.400
Total • $1.107.000E
These values are subject to revision as an actual survey of the property,establishing parcel sizes
and confirming easement and access points, might dictate.
' If you have any questions about, our methodology or conclusions of value, please let me know.

The development of the subject property is therefore dependent upon the timely completion of
Interstate 26 in conjunction with site conditions being acceptable for the installation of water
supply and sewage disposal systems. It is apparent that a package. sewage disposal system will
, be required as a result of the physical characteristics of the parcels. The status of the adaptability
of same to the site was still in question as of the date of this appraisal. Furthermore, the
• appraisers observed "wetland areas" near the southerly portion of Parcel A near Jenkins Nursery.
A representative with the DOT indicated that both parcels are "wet".
Hence, there are a number of compelling factors that will shape the value of the subject property.
We considered the highest and best use to be for speculative holding until the completion of the
interchange concurrent with the commencement of any development on the subject parcels.

Dear Mr. Satterfield:
As per our meeting .and discussion regarding the commercial property located on the
Wolf Laurel exit of the new I-26, my company, Tri-Star Development & Brokerage
Company, represents a commercial developer who is very interested in purchasing and
developing the approximate 8 acres on the Wolf Laurel exit of I-26.
I have explained to my client that your company is very concerned as to the type of
businesses, as well as the architectural theme which you would require to be compatible
with your future plans for developing the ski resort properties you own and operate.
They agree that upon developing their engineering and architectural plans, your company
will have input and architectural review for each building and business they locate on the
property.
I have been authorized to share with you at this time a general description of their desired
development. With the knowledge that you are presently planning to develop a hotel on
this property and with the market information we have obtained, they are planning a mix
of retail and service businesses as follows:
---OUTP-ARCELS: _
Parcel A: Convenience Store: approximately 2 acres needed. Full service facility
with petroleum products, food and drinks, information center.
Parcel B: Fast Food 1:.approximately 1.5 acres — national brand.
Parcel C: Fast Food 2: approximately 1.5 acres — national brand.
Parcel.D: Strip Center: approximately 3 acres — outparcels will be anchored by a
30,000 sq. ft. strip service center with retail and office shops — typical
shop size 20' x 50'. Uses will include office, beauty salon, barber shop,
gift shop, insurance, real estate, florist, etc. The Center will be designed

whereby tenants may combine units when they require a space larger than
1,000 sq. $. We will be developing a preliminary site plan in the next 2
weeks.
We are excited about the opportunity to work with you in developing this project. We
would like to schedule a meeting with you at your earliest .convenience to finalize a
Contract to purchase the land and start our development process.
As we have discussed we will need to confirm the availability of utilities (water
and sewer) as soon as possible.
Please let me know when you will be available to meet with us.

Loca .government Review Requiremen,_—f
for the Issuance of New Non -Municipal Domestic Wastewater Discharge Permits
General Statute Overview
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 (c)(6) allows input from local governments in the issuance of NPDES Permits
for non -municipal domestic wastewater treatment facilities. Specifically, the Environmental Management Commission
(EMC) may not act on an application for a new non -municipal domestic wastewater discharge facility until it has received
a written statement from each city and county government having jurisdiction over any part of the lands on which the
proposed facility and its appurtenances are to be located. The written statement shall document whether the city or
county has a zoning or subdivision ordinance in effect and (if such an ordinance is in effect) whether the proposed facility
is consistent with the ordinance. The EMC shall not approve a permit application for any facility which a city or county
has determined to be inconsistent with zoning or subdivision ordinances unless the approval of such application is
determined to have statewide significance and is in the best interest of the State.
Instructions to the Applicant

SECTION I GENERAL INFORMATION
Wolf Laurel Properties, LLC is a private company based out of Chapel Hill, North
Carolina that owns and plans to develop two (2) tracts of land. along US Highway 23 in
Madison County, North Carolina. The properties are located adjacent to Big Laurel
Creek, near a new interchange on Interstate 26 that is currently under construction by the
North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). The tracts are bisected by Bear
Branch Road (SR 1346), and are comprised of a total of approximately 9.6 acres.
Property No. 1 is located to the south of Bear Branch Road, and comprised of
approximately 5.9 acres, and Property No. 2 is located to the north of Bear Branch Road
and comprised of approximately 3.7 acres. NCDOT is currently using the parcels as a
staging area for the ongoing construction of the new interstate.
Upon completion of the interstate, the general vicinity around the properties has
the potential for a significant increase in vehicular traffic. Currently, Wolf Laurel
Properties plans to construct a commercial park (hereinafter referred to as the Wolf
Laurel. Commercial Park) on the parcels, comprised of two (2) 100-room hotels, a new
50-seat restaurant, a 10,000 square foot strip mall, and a new service station with a fast
food restaurant. Construction on one (1) of the hotels is scheduled to begin in Spring
2003 with additional development planned in coming years.
This study evaluates alternatives for the treatment and disposal of wastewater that
will be generated by the proposed development. The analysis has been completed in
accordance with North Carolina Division of Water . Quality (NCDWQ) guidelines.

Feasible alternatives have been evaluated on an estimated construction cost basis as well
as a present worth basis over a twenty-year operations period.
. The alternatives that have been evaluated in this report are as follows:
• Alternative No. 1 - No Action
'� • Alternative No. 2 - Connection to Publicly Owned Treatment Works
• Alternative No. 3 - Connection to a Privately Owned Treatment Works
Alternative No. 3-A — Connection to Wolf Laurel WWTP
Alternative No. 3-B — Connection to English Wolf Lodge WWTP
• Alternative No. 4 — Individual and Community Subsurface Systems
Alternative No. 5 — Surface Water Discharge Through NPDES Permit
System
• Alternative No. 6 — Drip Irrigation
• Alternative No. 7 — Spray Irrigation
• Alternative No. 8 — Reuse

SECTION II DESCRIPTION OF NEEDS
Based on the proposed development of the two (2) tracts of land, a total
wastewater flow of 30,000 gallons per day (GPD) is ultimately projected for these
properties. A breakdown of the total flow is described below. All wastewater flows have
been calculated according to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Administrative Code Section 15A NCAC 2H .0219.
1. Two (2) 100-Room Hotels X 120 GPD per room = 24,000 GPD
2. One (1) 50-seat restaurant X 40 GPD/seat = 2,000 GPD
3. One (1) 10,000 square foot shopping center X 120 GPD/1,000 ft2 = 1,200 GPD
4. One service station with four (4) water closets X 250 GPD/water closet plus fast
food (assume 40 seats) X 40 GPD/seat = 2,600 GPD
TOTAL ESTIMATED FLOW = 29,800 Gallons Per Day
For the purposes of this study, the calculated wastewater flow has been rounded
up to 30,000 GPD. This wastewater is proposed to be treated by a new steel package -
type wastewater treatment plant located on Property No. 2, and discharged to Big Laurel
Creek. No existing facilities are proposed to be used for this construction. Wolf Laurel
Properties is requesting a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permit to allow the discharge of 30,000 GPD of treated effluent to Big Laurel Creek. A
location map of the site that includes the proposed development and wastewater treatment
plant is included in Figure 2-1.

SECTION III WASTEWATER TREATMENT ALTERNATIVES
This section provides a discussion of the alternatives available to Wolf Laurel
Properties, LLC for wastewater disposal at the Wolf Laurel Commercial Park. Included
in this discussion are estimates of the capital costs associated with each alternative and a
present worth analysis of each alternative for the 20 year planning period. The costs will
be used to compare the various alternatives, and to make recommendations for
wastewater disposal at the site.
ALTERNATIVE NO. 1 — NO ACTION
This alternative consists of no action being taken by Wolf Laurel Properties to provide
wastewater facilities to the property. Without an adequate method of wastewater
disposal, the land could not be developed into the commercial park, resulting in a loss of
economic growth and jobs in the community. To allow for this growth, it appears to be in
the best interest of the developer and the County to provide a method of wastewater
disposal to the site. Alternative No. 1 is therefore not an acceptable alternative and will
not be discussed in further detail.

n
fl
ALTERNATIVE NO. 2 - CONNECTION TO A PUBLICLY OWNED
TREATMENT WORKS
The Town of Mars Hill, North Carolina is located approximately eight (8) miles
to the south of the project site along US Highway 23, and is currently the closest
municipality to the site. The Town currently owns and maintains a wastewater collection
system and wastewater treatment facility with a permitted capacity to discharge 425,000
GPD of treated effluent to Gabriel Creek.
The Town recently extended their sewer system to serve the new rest area being
constructed along Interstate 26 to the north of the Town limits. This extension consisted
of the construction of a new lift station and force main that were designed to serve the
rest area only. Directly, the new lift station is located approximately 2.5 miles to the
south of the proposed commercial park; however, the shortest distance between the two
(2) areas by roadway is approximately 3.2 miles.
The Town of Mars Hill was previously contacted about the possibility of
extending their sewer system to serve the Wolf Laurel Commercial Park. However, the
Town has stated that this is not feasible because the Town only provides sewer service to
private properties located within the Town limits. Due to the distance of the commercial
park from the existing Town limits, annexation of this area does not appear to be
practicable.
Appendix A of this report includes a letter from Mr. Darhyl Boone, Town
Manager for Mars Hill confirming that the Town is unable to provide sewer service to the
project area. Alternative No. 2 is therefore not a feasible alternative and will not be
discussed in further detail.

ALTERNATIVE NO. 3 — CONNECTION TO A PRIVATELY OWNED
TREATMENT WORKS
According to NCDWQ, three (3) NPDES permits are currently in existence in the
Wolf Laurel community of Madison County. Table 3-1 provides a summary of these.
permits and the approximate distance of the facilities from the proposed Wolf Laurel
Commercial Park.

4.1
According to NCDWQ, the permit for the Wolf Laurel Resort WWTP
(NC0061468) was issued several years ago, but no treatment facility was ever constructed
in accordance with the permit. The future construction schedule for any such facility is
currently unknown. Since the facility does not exist, connecting to this system will not
be evaluated further in this report.
Connection of the commercial park to the two (2) additional permitted systems
have been evaluated further in this section. Alternative 3-A will evaluate connecting to
the existing Wolf Laurel WWTP, and Alternative 3-B will evaluate connecting to the
existing English Wolf Lodge WWTP.

Alternative 3-A Connection to Wolf Laurel WWTP
The Wolf Laurel WWTP is owned by Carolina Water Service, Inc., and has a
permitted capacity to discharge 30,000 GPD of treated effluent to Wolf Laurel Branch.
This treatment plant serves various residential and commercial properties in the Wolf
Laurel area, and is located approximately 4.4 miles from the proposed Wolf Laurel
Commercial Park (5.3 miles by roadway). According to NCDWQ, wastewater flows at
the facility typically average less than 6,000 GPD.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle Map for
this area, the wastewater treatment plant is located approximately 900 feet higher in
elevation than the proposed commercial park site. Connecting wastewater facilities from
the commercial park to this treatment facility would therefore require numerous lift
stations. Preliminary calculations indicate that at least six (6) lift stations will be
required, and that a 4-inch force main wouldbe constructed along State Roads 1502 and
1501 to connect to these facilities. Because NCDOT does not allow lift stations to be
constructed within their right-of-way, property acquisition or private easements would
need to be obtained by the developer prior to construction of the wastewater facilities.
For this alternative to be feasible, it would also be necessary to provide an
expansion to the existing Wolf Laurel WWTP to accommodate the 30,000 GPD of flow
that is projected for the commercial park site. Estimated costs for this expansion have
been included in this analysis.
Figure 3-1 provides a preliminary map of the proposed improvements associated
with this alternative. Locations of the lift stations are preliminary, and could potentially
change during the design and easement acquisition phases of the project.

Alternative 3-B Connection to English Wolf Lodge WWTP
The English Wolf Lodge WWTP is owned by the English Wolf Lodge and has a
permitted capacity to discharge 7,000 GPD of treated effluent to Wolf Laurel Branch.
This treatment plant currently serves the lodge only, and is located approximately 4.1
miles from the proposed Wolf Laurel Commercial Park (4.9 miles by roadway).
According to the operator of the facility, wastewater flows at the plant typically average
less than 2,000 GPD.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle Map for
this area, the wastewater treatment plant is located approximately 800 feet higher in
elevation than the proposed commercial park site. Connecting wastewater facilities from
the commercial park to this treatment facility would therefore require numerous lift
stations. Preliminary calculations indicate that at least five (5) lift stations will be
required, and that a 4-inch force main would be constructed along State Roads 1502 and
1501 to connect to these facilities. Because NCDOT does not allow lift stations to be
constructed within their right-of-way, property acquisition or private easements would
need to be obtained by the developer prior to construction of the wastewater facilities.
For this alternative to be feasible, it would also be necessary to provide an
expansion to the existing English Wolf Lodge WWTP to accommodate the 30,000 GPD
of flow that is projected for the commercial park site. Costs for this expansion have been
included in this analysis.
Figure 3-2 provides a preliminary map of the proposed improvements associated
with this alternative. Locations of the lift stations are preliminary, and could potentially
change during the design and easement acquisition phases of the project.

ALTERNATIVE NO. 4 — INDIVIDUAL AND COMMUNITY SUBSURFACE
SYSTEM
In accordance with NCDWQ guidelines, a detailed soil analysis report was
performed for the site of the proposed Wolf Laurel Commercial Park. A copy of the
report that. was completed by Toney C. Jacobs & Associates of Mooresville, North
Carolina is included in Appendix B of this report.
The soil analysis report concludes that "Because of space limitations, setback
requirements, prior disturbance by road building storage and staging, proximity to Big
Laurel Creek, and the thin soil solum to rock, this site has no potential for on -site disposal
at the needed design flow."
Based on these conclusions, the option of treating the wastewater from the.
commercial park with a subsurface system is not considered a feasible alternative and
therefore will not be discussed further.

ALTERNATIVE NO. 5 - SURFACE WATER DISCHARGE THROUGH THE
NPDES PERMIT SYSTEM
This alternative consists of the construction of a new wastewater treatment facility
on the site of the Wolf Laurel Commercial Park, and the discharge of the treated effluent
. into Big Laurel Creek. Big Laurel Creek is a Class C "Trout" water according to
NCDWQ. In addition, Mr. Curtis Weaver with USGS provided information that the
7Q10 flow of Big Laurel Creek is in the range of 0.20 to 0.24 cubic feet per second (CFS)
per square mile of drainage area, and the 30Q10 flow of the creek is in the range of 0.40
to 0.50 CFS per square mile of drainage area. According to the USGS Quadrangle map
for this area, the drainage basin upstream of this site is approximately 13.13 square miles
in area. Using the averages of the figures provided by Mr. Weaver equates to a 7Q10
flow of 2.89 CFS, and a 30Q10 flow of 5.91 CFS.
The wastewater treatment facility is proposed to be a dual train, steel package -
type plant with a total capacity of 30,000 GPD. The dual train plant is proposed to
consist of a manual bar screen, flow equalization tank, two (2) aeration tanks, two (2)
clarifier units, a chlorine contact basin, and a sludge digester. Sludge generated at the
wastewater plant is proposed to be treated in the digester unit, and disposed of by a
sludge hauling contractor through a contract with Wolf Laurel Properties. Adequate space
exists on the existing properties for construction of the plant; therefore no additional land
acquisition appears to be necessary for this alternative.
A preliminary site plan for the Wolf Laurel Commercial Park WWTP is included
in Figure 3-3. In addition, a diagram showing the proposed treatment system is included
in Figure 3-4.

The annual O&M costs for Alternative No. 5 would consist of the costs typically
required to operate a wastewater treatment facility. It is assumed that Wolf Laurel
Properties would enter into a contract with a certified operator to operate the plant, and
would be responsible for additional costs such as laboratory fees, chemicals, power costs,
sludge removal, etc. Table 3-7 provides an estimate of the total costs associated with the
operation of a 30,000 GPD facility.

PW= $214,300 + ($23,000 x 11.59)
PRESENT WORTH = $480,870

ALTERNATIVE NO. 6— DRIP IRRIGATION
Alternative No. 6 includes the construction of the proposed wastewater treatment
plant described in Alternative No. 5, but instead of discharging flow into Big Laurel
Creek, the treated effluent would be land -applied in the area by a drip irrigation system.
Per NCDWQ guidelines, a detailed soil analysis report was performed for the existing
properties by Toney C. Jacobs & Associates of Mooresville, North Carolina. A copy of
the soils report is included in Appendix B at the back of this report.
In the letter dated January 16, 2003 that is an attachment to this report, Mr. Jacobs
states that loading rates vary on the property from zero (due to wetness conditions on the
south end of the property) to 0.5 to 1.0 inch per week on the north end. Using the
maximum recommended amount of 1-inch per week equates to a maximum loading rate
for this property of 0.089 gallons per day per square foot (GPD/SF).
Utilizing this loading rate, approximately 7.74 acres of effective area will be
required for 30,000 GPD of treated effluent, not including setbacks. According to State
regulations, drip irrigation systems require 50-foot setbacks from property lines.
Applying the 50-foot setback regulation would require a drip irrigation site for this
facility to have at least 10.63 acres of available land. The actual total amount of acreage
may be greater depending on the physical dimensions of the tract of land that is utilized.
The existing parcels that are owned by Wolf Laurel Properties consist of a total of
only 9.6 acres of land. In addition, the majority of this land is proposed to be developed
into the hotels, restaurant, shopping center, and service station previously mentioned in
this report. Therefore, adequate land does not currently exist for a drip irrigation system
17

x•.
on this property. If this alternative were to be selected, additional land would need to be
acquired for the construction of the facilities.
No specific properties in the area have currently been identified as a possible site
for a drip irrigation system. For the purposes of comparing costs, it will be assumed that
a parcel could be obtained within one (1) mile of the project site for the construction of
these facilities.
In addition, State regulations require a minimum of 5-day storage pond to hold the
effluent during wet or freezing weather. Due to the relatively cold winter climate in the
project area, it is likely that additional storage would be necessary for this alternative.
However, for the purposes of this study, a 150,000 gallon aerated storage pond (only 5
days of storage) has been included in the project cost estimate.
The wastewater treatment plant in Alternative No. 5 will be designed to meet
current State regulations for discharge limits. For a drip irrigation system, a wastewater
filter has also been added to the project to increase the treatment at the facility and
improve the quality of the effluent that is discharged through the drip irrigation system.

ALTERNATIVE NO. 7 — SPRAY IRRIGATION
Alternative No. 7 includes the construction of the proposed wastewater treatment
plant described in Alternative No. 5, but instead of discharging the flow into Big Laurel
Creek, the treated effluent would be land -applied in the area by a spray irrigation system.
Per NCDWQ guidelines, a detailed soil analysis report was performed for the existing
properties by Toney C. Jacobs & Associates of Mooresville, North Carolina. A copy of
the soils report is included in Appendix B at the back of this report.
In the letter dated January 16, 2003 that is an attachment to this report, Mr. Jacobs
states that loading rates vary on the property from zero (due to wetness conditions on the
south end of the property), to 0.5 to 1.0 inch per week on the north end. Using the
recommended amount of 1-inch per -week equates to a maximum loading rate of 0.089
gallons per day per square foot (GPD/SF).
Utilizing this loading rate, approximately 7.74 acres of effective area will be
required for the 30,000 GPD of treated effluent, not including setbacks. According to
State regulations, spray irrigation systems require 150-foot setbacks from property lines.
Applying the 150-foot setback requirement requires a spray irrigation site to have
approximately 17.80 acres. The actual total amount of acreage may be greater depending
on the physical dimensions of the tract of land that is used.
The existing parcels that are owned by Wolf Laurel Properties consist of a total of
only 9.6 acres of land. In addition, the majority of this land is proposed to be developed
into the hotels, restaurant, shopping center, and service station previously mentioned in
this report. Therefore, adequate land does not currently exist for a spray irrigation system
21

on this property. If this alternative were to be selected, additional lands would have to be
acquired for the construction of the facilities.
No specific properties in the area have currently been identified as a possible site
for a spray irrigation system. For the purposes of comparing costs, it will be assumed
that a parcel could be obtained within one (1) mile of the project site for the construction

ALTERNATIVE NO. 8 — REUSE
This alternative involves reusing all or a portion of the wastewater generated at
the commercial park site to minimize or eliminate the need for a surface water discharge.
Potential reuse options include drip or spray irrigation, process or cooling water, the use
of reclaimed water for toilet flushing, etc.
Drip irrigation and spray irrigation systems were previously analyzed in this
report as Alternatives No. 6 and No. 7. These options do not appear to be economically
feasible when compared to other disposal methods, based on a 20-year present value
analysis.
At this time, the developer does not have plans to construct any facilities in the
commercial park that could reuse the wastewater treatment plant effluent as a reuse
product. Using reclaimed water for toilet flushing at the site would still involve the
construction of the wastewater treatment plant. The option of plumbing all facilities to
use treatment plant effluent for toilet flushing only is not an economically feasible
alternative, nor would there be sufficient demand to utilize the required effluent flow.
Potable water plumbing would also still be required for drinking water, showers, etc.
Alternative No. 8 is therefore not a feasible alternative, and will not be discussed
in further detail.

SECTION IV CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A total of nine (9) alternatives were examined for the treatment and disposal of
wastewater generated by the proposed Wolf Laurel Commercial Park in Madison County,
North Carolina. Table 4-1 summarizes the results of the cost analyses that were
performed for the alternatives.

This addresses the loading rates requested in permit application. The southern end of the
property around auger holes 1 and .2 has a zero loading because of wetness conditions.. The
disturbed areas through the central part. of the property near holes 4-7 could be modified for
loading at *approximately 'A inch per week if setback limits could be modified. The north end of
the property is highly variable, but could be used at 0.5 to 1.0 inch per week outside setbacks. •
This would be a maximum loading with site modifications. There would be an extensive
storage requirement in winter/spring when temperatures and evapotransporation are low.
Useable areas are limited by ROW, property lines, and stream setbacks. Instantaneous loading •

Soil and Site Evaluation for an On -Site Wastewater Disposal Area
for Wolf Laurel Commercial Park
Introduction
This report summarizes the activities, observations, data collection, and conclusions for a
proposed 30,000 GPD on -site disposal system for a 200-room motel; a convenience store and
service station in the Wolf Laurel area of Madison County, North Carolina. Exact calculations
for the actual flow are deferred to the engineer and architect, but this evaluation and report
were Made considering a total design flow of 30,000 gpd. This report assumes the hydraulic
and nutrient loading will be from wastewater that has been highly treated and disinfected. This
evaluation was made considering ground absorption permitting. from DEHNR-DER
(15NCAC 18A .1900) or surface (spray or drip) permitting from DEHNR-DWQ (15NCAC
2H .0200.
The 9.3-acre site is located in northern Madison County . at the new Wolf Laurel
interchange and Hwy. 23 (Fig. 1). The tract is currently undeveloped. The land has been used
in recent times as a road construction storage and staging area. There is no evidence that a
hornesite has ever been located on the property. The USGS topo map (Fig. 2) .and an aerial
photo (Fig. 3) show several adjacent homes or businesses. In this area homes and businesses
use on -site septic systems and private wells.
We initially evaluated considering the site for a proposed DEH subsurface septic system.
After only a quick look, we asked if the Madison County Health Department had been on the
site and were told that the request for a ground absorption _system was denied. Ten holes were
placed or attempted on the site using a hand augers on October 17, 2002 for a preliminary
evaluation. It was discussed with the engineer and developer that a surface system should be
considered because of the size .of the system and the reparian buffer, The proposed site plan
with usable area for evaluation is included (Fig. 4).
The recommendation for an on -site system (ground absorption, spray or drip) is based on a
combination of factors; including, but not limited to 1) topography, 2) soil characteristics, 3)
wetness conditions, 4) soil depth, 5) restrictive horizons,_ 6) available space, 7) impact on
watertable, 8) ability to physically install the system, and 9) other environmental impacts in
the area. Generally, some of these conditions, which may limit site use, can be compensated
for by changing the system design; however, some factors cannot be remediated. It is with
this philosophy that this report is prepared.
This report is complimentary documentation for a design to be engineered by Joe
Matheson, Jr., P.E. Details that will, be a part of a design and permit request have been

2
omitted from this work. Because this work is a holistic .effort, it has been written or modified
to compliment the engineer's work.
Site
As stated previously, the site is adjoining Big Laurel Creek in northern Madison County.
The site is open except for perennial vegetation except for some trees and shrubs located
along the creels (Fig. 3).
All of the proposed area was evaluated regardless of site plan consideration. Slopes were
less than 5%, and in places the. site appeared to be almost flat between road and stream.
USES topo is included on Fig. 2.
The area has • been graded and worked. The northern most 'portion has been bunned or
dammed to the extent that it has 'areas where wet terrain plants are growing. The central area is
compacted and rocky from stored materials. The southern area (lot B) has minor strips of
naturally occurring soil, -but this has been denuted or is naturally thin soils.
• Soils
• The advanced information from The Soil Survey of Madison County, North Carolina
(USDA in publication) has the site mapped as Dellwood-Reddies complex, 0-3 percent slopes,
occasionally flooded and Buladean-Chestnut complex, 30-50 percent slopes, stoney .and Tate
loam, 15-30 percent slopes (Fig. 3). The site specific soil evaluation attempted 10 auger holes
on the site in an effort to describe soils in the different landscape positions and previously
identified NRCS mapping units. The approximate hole locations are shown in Figure4 and all
profile descriptions are in Appendix 1.
The site -specific evaluation showed .that the soils described were dissimilar to those
mapped by NRCS. The northern area had standing water and gley soils and was much wetter
than indicated by the soil .map.. The watertable was perched at less than one foot from the
surface. There was standing water and gley soils..The soils adjacent to the existing drive were
more representative of roadways with natural and added stone base. Only the south end was
anything like the map. This was only general with a much thinner soil solum than expected.
This may have been denuted during some phase of past road building.
No mottles of 2 chroma or less were described, but there was gley soil described
indicating a perched watertable or zone of saturation. Site wide the soils were moist to wet .
during our evaluation. Free- water was observed in northern holes during the evaluation.
Bedrock or large floating rock was observed in numerous locations over the site and were
even more prevalent in areas adjoining the site.

3
All auger holes were attempted to a minimum 48" depth and none could be completed.
There was auger refusal at <24" over the entire site.
Equipment like that described by Amoozegar (1989) for taking site;specific hydraulic
conductivity measurements was transported to the site. But because of saturated. soils,
compaction, and rock, Ksats could not be run.
Composite soil samples were not collected to give a vertical and horizontal profile • of
cation exchange capacity (CEC), pH, and soil nutrient status. The samples were not collected
because of watertable, compaction, and rock.
Wastewater Loading Rate and Recommendations
Because of space limitations, setback requirements, prior disturbance by road building
storage and staging, proximity to Big Laurel Creek, and the thin soil solum to rock, this site
has no potential for on -site disposal at the needed design flow. Even at one/one hundred of
this -flow; the site would be difficult to permit. The 30,000 GPD flow is 7.7-acre inches of
effluent per week and the site, even with 100% use, would not support a surface or subsurface
system. I can think of no modification to on -site wastewater disposal that would render this
-site viable. My only suggestion would be to secure additional property within. pumping
distance or an NPDES permit. Should additional land become available, I would welcome the
.opportunity to evaluate it for an on -site disposal solution.
Thank you for the opportunity to be of assistance with this project. If questions arise about
this report, please do not hesitate to contact me.
