NOTICE OF VIOLATION NOV-2020-PC-0488
Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Single Family Wastewater Treatment System
Permit No. NCG550712
Durham County
Dear Mr. Ferrell:
On November 5, 2020 Mitch Hayes from the Raleigh Regional Office visited your single-family
residence (SFR) wastewater treatment system to evaluate compliance with 'the above permit to
discharge wastewater. Your assistance with this inspection was greatly appreciated. The checked
boxes below show what conditions were noted at your facility:
❑ In compliance: You are reminded to regularly maintain the chlorine disinfection and
dechlorination systems, have the effluent sampled once a year, and have the septic tank
pumped out every 3 to 5 years. Your good record of operation and meeting the permit
requirements is highly commended.
❑ Your home is improperly plumbed: Some of the wastewater discharges are going
directly to the environment without first passing through the treatment system. This must
be corrected immediately. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 days of receipt
of this letter that states your plan for correcting_ this deficiency. The work is to be
completed within the next 3 months.
❑ Disinfection: Your system is lacking disinfection, either chlorine tablets or a UV light
system. New rules put into place on August 1, 2007 require all SFR systems to have a
means of disinfection (and dechlorination when chlorine tablets are used to disinfect, lithe
system was installed since that date). Since your system had no disinfection, the
installation is to include -a chlorine tablet dispenser, a contact chamber capable of providing
a minimum 30-minute contact time, and another tablet dispenser that will hold
dechlorination tablets. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 calendar days of
receipt of this letter that states your plan for correcting this deficiency.
® Treatment tablets missing or arc wrong kind: You are responsible for always having
chlorine tablets and dechlorination tablets (i fa required part of your system) in place. They
must be the kind for wastewater treatment and not for swimming pools.

"` " """"e.,...�.� -❑ Dechlorination: Your system was installed after August I, 2007, so must have a means
of dechlorination located downstream of the chlorinator and its contact chamber. See
Disinfection paragraph above. Please submit a schedule to this office within 20 calendar
days of receipt of this letter statin+i your plan for correcting this deficiency.
❑ Pumping the septic tank: The septic tank should be pumped out every 3 to 5 years- A
pumping company can check the status periodically and determine when pumping is
required.
Failure to analyze the effluent: The effluent that is discharged from your system must
be analyzed once each year. See Part I(A) of your permit about his requirement_ A list of
NC certified laboratories that provide this service IN as left at your residence during the
inspection. Make arrangements for samplinu to he carried out within the next 3 months.
and submit results to this office within 3 weeks after the sampling has been done.
❑ Locations of treatment units are unknown: Determine this and report to this office
within 30 days of receipt of this letter with a sketch or map.
® Other: Plants and vegetation obscure the discharge point and right of v ay. This
vegetation must be removed to gain easy access to the discharge point.
II'}atu hay a questions. or cotmncnts about thi.+inspection Or the nt1mrements to take conewtii.' .lotion, please contact Mitch I IU}es at 919-791-4200.
