PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Environmental Management.
2. PEM or Division
Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources.
3. EMC
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33
USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled
and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during
such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the.
pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days
the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the
permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges
are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampledand/or
measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average"
in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during
a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant
calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily
Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such
year. It is, therefore, anarithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found
each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were
reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit.

Part ll
Page 2 of 14
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of
the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month
on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week
(Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the
number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of
the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by
flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count
for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during
a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a
calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of
pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as
"Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria., is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar year. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount
of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged
over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the
sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is
identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.
f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar
quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit.
g.
A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through
March, April through June, July through September, and October through December.

Part II
Page 3of 14
7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded
during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling,
when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which
occurs continually 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.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) 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
(2) 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 present gallon interval between sample
collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment
system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of
flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no
greater 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 time
intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the
detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval
between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less
than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of -time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be
representative of the discharge or the receiving waters.
9. Calculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of
the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric
mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual
values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be
considered to be one (1).

Part II
Page 4 of 14
•
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each
concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows.
10. Calendar' Day
A calendar day is defined as 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.
11. Hazardous Substance
A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to
Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
12. Toxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)0) of the Clean Water Act.

Part II
Page 8 of 14
2. proper Operation and Maintenance
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 operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems which are
installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the
conditions of the permit.
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 thepermitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the
condition of this permit.
4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
p) "Bypass" means 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.
(2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to
the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and
permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the
absence of a. bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by
delays in production.
b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
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 c. and d. of this section.
c. Notice
(1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it
shall submit prior notice, if possible at Ieast ten days before the date of the bypass;
including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as
required in Part II, E. 6. of this permit. (24 hour notice).
d. Prohibition of Bypass
(1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action
against a permittee for bypass, unless:
(A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, 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

Part II
Page 9 of 14
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 c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its
adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three
conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsets
a. Definition.
"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary
noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors
beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance
to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities,
inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper
operation.
b. Effect of an upset.
An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with
such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this
condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that
noncompliance was causedby upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final
administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset.
A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate,
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:
(1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of this
permit.
(4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II, B. 2. of this
permit.
d. Burden of proof.
In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset
has the burden of proof.
6. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or
control of wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the State
or navigable waters of the United States. The permittee shall comply with all existing federal

Part II

STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Environmental Management.
2. DEM or Division
Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Environment, Health
and Natural Resources.
3.
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended,
33 USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly
Average" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily
discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges.
sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found
by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this
sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as
"Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged
during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight
of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is
identified as "Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit.

Pant II
Page2of 14
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then. dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average"
in Part I of the permit.
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the
daily concentration values). , The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted
by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average
monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for
samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly
Average" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided
by the number- of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week
(arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration valueis
equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the
arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that
calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric
mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is
identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during
a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration
of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified
as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of
the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the
daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted
by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day The average -
yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples
collected during a calendar year.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable
amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge
averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a
calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the
discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.

Part II
Page 3 of 14
f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a
calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I
of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through
March, April through June, July through September, and October through December.
•
7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed: in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows
recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is .a measure of flow taken at the time of
sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility
which occurs continually 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.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) 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
(2) 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 present gallon interval
between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily
flow at the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional
to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be
no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall
be no greater 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 time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in
number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in
no case may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6)
hours nor the number of samples less than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually.
9. Calculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.

Part II
Page 4 of 14
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the
product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values.
The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms
of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of
zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means thesummation of each
concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective
flows.
10. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as 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.

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 c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering
its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the
three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsets
a. Definition.
"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is: unintentional and
temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of
factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include
noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment
facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, orcareless or
improper: operation.
b. Effect of an upset. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for
noncompliance with such technology based permiteffluent limitations if the
requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during
administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an
action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset..
A permitteewho wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate,
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating, logs, or other relevant evidence
that
(a) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(b) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(c) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of
this permit.

by observation or any specified test shall be made
watertight by the Contractor.
Regardless of the amount of leakage, any visible leaks
or sign of leakage shall be investigated and corrected.
5-3' 238.04

All joints in exposed piping, regardless of location,
shall be tight and drip free at all operating
pressures. Water for the tests shall be taken from the
system when available. Cross -connections wiltnot be
allowed. Where any section of a force main is provided
with concrete reaction backing for fittings, the
hydrostatic pressure test shall not be made until at
least five (5) days after the installation of the
concrete reaction blocking. All air shall be expelled
from pipe. Corporation stops shall be inserted at high
points in line for expelling air. Corporation stops
shall remain in system after testing.
Hydrostatic test pressures shall be fifty (50%) percent
above normal working pressure, based on the elevation
of the lowest point in the line or section being tested
and corrected to the elevation of the test gage. Test
pressure shall not vary more than 5 PSI plus or minus
during the test.
The leakage test shall be set at the maximum working
pressure but not less than 100 PSI corrected to the
elevation of the test gage. The amount of the water
added to maintain pressure shall be measured.
(1)
PRESSURE TEST
The newly laid force main shall be continuously
subjected for four (4) hours to a hydrostatic
pressure test as indicated above. Pressure tests
shall not be conducted on force main sections over
one (1) mile in length. Exposed pipe, joints, and
fittings, shall be carefully examined during the
test. Joints showing visible leakage shall be
replaced or remade as necessary. Leaking rubber-
gasketed joints shall be remade, using new gaskets
if necessary.

(2) LEAKAGE TEST
The leakage test may be conducted concurrently
with the pressure test. However, the duration of
each leakage and pressure test shall be at least a
total of eight (8) hours and during the leakage
test, the force main shall be subject to the test
pressures of at least 100 PSI. Leakage is defined
as the quantity of water that must be supplied
into the newly laid force main, or any valved
section thereof,' necessary to maintain the
pressure within 5 PSI of the specified pressure
for the duration of test. No piping installation
will be accepted until the leakage is less than
the number of gallons per hour as determined by
the formula:
5-4 1 238.04

L = SD / P
133,200
In which L equals the allowable leakage in gallons
per hour; S is the length of pipe line tested, in
feet; D is the nominal diameter of the pipe, in
inches; and P is the average test pressure during
the leakage test, in pounds per square inch gage.
Should any test of force main laid disclose
leakage greater than that indicated in Table 6 of
AWWA C600, the defective joints shall be located
and repaired until the leakage is within the
specified allowance, and all visible leaks have
been eliminated without additional cost to the
Owner.

Wasteload Allocation Summary
(approach taken, correspondence with region, EPA, etc.)
This is a speculative W.L. for Fairview. The proposed #2 relocation to
Goose Creek at Hwy. 601 is the most feasible point of discharge. The
facility's proposed discharge to Crooked Creek is not feasible due to 0
7Q10s estimates (this would yield limits of 5/t).
The school is currently under an SOC. Only two NH3-N monthly average
values below 20 mg/1 have been reported in the last year. BOD/5 values
appear to be below the permitted limit. bhp 4 t LLA i1 5`t,oO/C LOOrK-

arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one -
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria_, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed jn this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.

e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the
Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal
to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva-
lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of
the individual values. For purposesof calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
g•
Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow..
An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent.
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.

4. Person contacted: Mr. Harold Funderburk
5.. Directions to site: Travel north from Monroe on U. S. 601 to the
intersection of U. S. 601 and N. C. 218 at Fairview Crossroads. The
site is located approximately 300 yards north of the intersection on
the right side of U. S. 601.
6. The bearing and distance to the proposed point of effluent discharge
is: N/A. The co-ordinates of the discharge are: N 35008'25" and
W 80°32'18".
7. Size: There is adequate area for the continued operation and any
necessary- expansion of the wastewater treatment plant at Fairview
Elementary School. -
3. Topography: Sloping toward U. S. 601 at a rate of 3 to 10%..
9. Location of nearest dwelling: ,Several within 500 feet of the facility.
10. Receiving Stream: Unnalied tributary to Goose Creek
(a) Classification: "C"
(b) Minimum 7-Day, 10-Year discharge at site: 0.0 cfs
(c) Usage: Fishing, boating, wading and any other best usage requiring
waters of lower quality except as a source of water supply for
drinking, culinary, or food processing purposes.
Part II - DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING TREATMENT WORKS
Fairview Elementary School is presently. being served by a 4000 GPD septic
tank followed by a surface sand -filter and chlorination facilities.
Part III - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS'
The final effluent limitations as promulgated by Technical Services are
as follows:
BOD, 5-Day,•20°C 15 mg/1
NH3 as. N ' - 11 mg/1
TSS 30 mg/1
Fecal Coliform (Geometric Mean) 1000/100 ml
Dissolved Oxygen (Minimum) - '6 mg/1
.pH • 6-8.5 s.u.

Page Two
The facility is unable to meet the above effluent limitations. Time is
needed to evaluate the needs of the facility and get the necessary monies
appropriated by the B:oard of Education.
It is, therefore, recommended a five year permit be issued for the discharger
with a Special Order by Consent detailing a schedule to evaluate the facility
and get the necessary monies appropriated.
The consultant for the Union County Schools has been contacted and he feels
the following schedule to achieve compliance is realistic:
1. Submit plans and specifications on or before January 31, 1981.
2. Begin construction on or before May 1, 1931.
3. Complete construction and meet final limits on or before August 15,
1981.
