As you suggested, I contacted Carolyn McCaskill concerning drip irrigation systems
within the State of North Carolina. Unfortunately, there is only a handful currently in
operation .
Our Water and Plumbing Supervisor, Jimmy Lowery, investigated all listed systems. All
were small residential types. Because of this we felt they were incompatible to the
system we are considering. j
We have contacted Thurman Horne and Dale Stewart and are pursuing estimates from
them concerning both discharge and non -discharge systems at New Salem. Both
engineers will have price proposals to us no later than July 26th and the estimates
completed by August 16, 1996.
Please let me know if this time frame is unacceptable.

Door Mr. Overcash:
This letter is in response to your Narch-25, 1996 communique
on the subject.
We conducted a detailed analysis of the BioCheimical Oxygen
Demand (80D) for the: Unionville site. We historically have
not had a problem meeting the Ban requirements atJ.Unionville.
There was no reason to suspect BOD levels would be any
different for the mouth of December 1995. We were surprised
to find a problem.
As we.stated on our December eel.f-monitoring report, we
Completed additional raking of the sand bed. We hoped this
would return the HOD -to the acceptable. range. Our. January
and February HOD tests were once again Favorable. Evidently
the extra effort we put into.raking the bed eliminated the
problem.
We once again feel confident the BOD levels will continue
to meet requirements.

As Mr. D. R. Gleason of the NC Division of Environmental Management (DEM)
required a have met with Mr. Dale Stewart, P.E., of Land Design Engineering
Services, Inc., who graciously provided time and information concerning his
Morrison Cove project in Iredell County. The only similarity of that project
to the one at New Salem is that both use drip -irrigation as the distribution
system for land application. The Morrison Cove project is a temporary system
for a private developer designed to serve approximately 25 single family
residences during an interim period until other facilities are available.
It's service life is less than one year. The New Salem facilities, however,
must serve the school for the foreseeable future and some consideration must
be given to long term maintenance.
The design concept.at Morrison cove is to work up to distributing 1.0-inch of
wastewater per week on 2.35 acres of field, or 9,000.-gallons per day. The
soil on this site has an acceptance rate of 1.36.inches per acre per. week.
Dischaige �G, each' 'cif three fields car.,:be twit;: daily. i�, ' 14 tLc:ues per week.
Site topography allows- gravity flowbetween treatment processes except for
pressurizing the dripper lines.. Field.topography allows straight-line layout
of the dripper lines. Because -it is a temporary system, the holding basin is
designed to hold 270,000 gallons (30 days) with a PVC.liner and woven wire
fence. o other fencing is used. A temporary wooden building houses the
pump's filter and controls. DEN required two monitoring wells for this site.
The extended aeration treatment.system is leased. Mulch is available from on -
site clearing operations at reduced cost for ground cover in the field area.
The initial price negotiated with a contractor for this project was $190,661.
Design changes and further negotiations have reduced the cost of this project
to what Mr. Stewart estimates will be approximately $152,600 of construction
costs (including lease of the package treatment plant). Assisting in lowering
the cost is direct owner purchase of equipment.
L nl A I._�.

NEW SAL13K E[ENTARX SCHOOL PAGE 2
At New Salem, we are allowed a maximum of 0.42-inches of wastewater per week
discharge to 1.67 acres for a 4,000 gallon daily flow. Discharge to the field
is limited to once a week at a maximum rate of 90.25 inches per hour. Site
topography dictates curved dripper lines which increases layout and
installation costs. Fitting .this system on the existing site requires that
the holding basin be constructed at an elevation above the existing septic
tank. A separate pumping station is needed to move wastewater from the sand
filter bed to the holding basin. The holding basin is designed to hold
240,000 gallons (60 days) with a permanent bentonite. liner, chain link fence,,
and vegetative screen (required by DEM). Additional fencing is required
around the land application field to keep children away from wastewater. The
building housing the pumps, filters and controls is precast concrete at the
Owner's request for maintenance reasons. Water service, protected by a
reduced pressure backflow preventer, is provided for wash -down. Three
monitoring wells are required by DEM because of site topography.
No renovations are planned for the existing septic tank -sand filter bed. The
land application area is a plowed field. Temporary and permanent ground cover
must be imported. Dr. A.R. Rubin of the NC Cooperative Extension Services has
recommended black walnut and green ash.seedlings in peat pots on an 8 x 10-
foot pattern. With the soil limitations on this site, four moisture probes
will be used to control operations of the drip -irrigation system to prevent
overloading of the land application area. A temperature sensor will prevent
operation in freezing temperatures. North Carolina law requires that public
projects must select the contractor through the competitive bidding process
and this process was followed in the case of the New Salem project. The low
bidder's price was $253,000 as a lump sum bid. As requested by Mr. Dennis
Ramsey of DEM, we have reviewed this system with a reduction to 3,000 gallons
per day. Along with that, we have reviewed other cost -saving measures with
the equipment manufacturer. On Page 2 of Amendment No. 2 to the Preliminary
Engineering Report for Eight Schools for Union County (revised June 27, 1995),
you will find a detailed cost estimate indicating a probable construction cost
of $200,000. This report is on file with DEM.
As a result of our conversation, neither Mr. Stewart, nor I, find it
extraordinary that the smaller permanent school treatment facilities cost more
to construct than similartemporary facilities for a subdivision; particularly
when you.factor in site and soil differences. The $190,661 for. Morrison Cove
-is a real cost presence d by Za cantr�!ctor ad' is the. $253,000 for -Mew. .Salem.
Based on what has beew completed, Mr Stewart estimates that Morrison Cove has
been reduced to a cost .of $152,600: a 20 percent reduction. We estimate that
New Salem could be reduced from $253,000 to approximately $200,000: a 20
percent reduction. There is no way to perform an itemized comparison of costs
since the New Salem project was bid as a -lump sum bid with no itemization.
Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact this office.
Very truly yours,

We have reviewed the draft Special Order by Consent (SOC)
sent to us under your transmittal letter dated January 25,
1996.
The great majority of the SOC is very satisfactory to us: We
appreciate your indulgence and understanding concerning
project completion dates.
As we discussed, there are however, a couple of areas of
concern. Attachments C and D of the draft SOC identify a
daily maximum total residual chlorine (TRC) of 17.0 ug/1.
These sites (Permit No's NCO028517 and NCO030562) are the
only two of our sites where TRC is limited. In addition both
these facilities are scheduled for upgrade. Per this same
SOC, Union County Public Schools is required to begin
construction at our Parkwood Middle School (NC0028517) for
upgrading to a recirculation sand filter system. This
project is scheduled to begin no later than June 1, 1996. We
propose the TRC be eliminated from this site entirely. In
our opinion, the logical solution to our TRC problem here is
to install a dechlorinator chamber. At this point in time it
seems unwise to expend the labor and funds on a project,whose
lifespan would be no longer than three months at best.

Mr. Rex Gleason
Page 2
February 19, 1995
We plan on eliminating the Unionville (NC 0030562) facility
by connecting to County sewer. This project is scheduled to
be complete by April, 1997. Although reluctant, we will
proceed with steps to install a dechlorination station at
Unionville. We are not sure of the need of building this
chamber considering it is only 13 months until the present
system will be eliminated. We understand that professional
engineer approved plans to add the dechlorination station
must be submitted to your office for approval. If this is
the case, we estimate it will be at least four months before
we even can obtain approval -to construct the dechlorinator.
This means we would only get nine months or less usage out
of this new system. Given that you may want to review this
requirement ONE MORE TIME.
Thank you once again for your cooperation and consideration.

Dear Mike,
A.request for speculative effluent limits has been submitted by Dale Stewart of Land
Design Engineering Services for the proposed combined flow from Unionville Elementary
School, Piedmont Middle and High Schools. The Technical Support Branch has
completed its analysis of the proposed discharge. In order to receive final permit limits; a
formal application will have to be submitted to the Division's Permits and Engineering
Unit.
Flow estimates for Crooked Creek at the discharge site are listed below. These
flow estimates are based on data collected at a USGS low flow partial record station located
approximately 4.3 miles upstream of the proposed discharge.
Drainage area (mi2) = 43.9
Summer 7Q10 (cfs) = 0.0

Under current Division of Environmental Management (DEM) procedure, chlorine
limits are now recommended for all new or expanding dischargers proposing the use of
chlorine for disinfection.. An acceptable level of chlorine in your effluent is 17 ug/L to
ensure protection against chronic toxicity.
Tlie.instream waste concentration at 0.02 MGD is 100%. A chronic toxicity testing
requirement at 90% will be a condition of the NPDES permit. A complete evaluation of
limits and monitoring requirements for metals and other toxicants will be addressed with
the formal NPDES application.
DEM is planning a basinwide water quality management initiative. Our schedule
for implementation in the Yadkin River basin is set for 1998. The plan will attempt to
address all sources of point and nonpoint pollutants where deemed necessary to protect or
restore water quality standards. In addressing interaction of sources, wasteload allocations
may be affected. Those facilities that already have committed to high levels of treatment
technology are least likely to be affected. Due to the numerous zero flow streams in the
county the Division continues to urge Union County to consider connecting its small
dischargers to regional facilities or seek other nondischarge alternatives.
If there are any additional questions concerning this matter, please feel free to
contact Ruth Swanek (ext. 503) or Andy McDaniel (ext. 513) of my staff at (919) 733-
5083.

Dear Mr. Chen:
Most of the information you requested from Mr. Mozingo of our office is contained
in Amendment No. 2 to the Preliminary Engineering Report for Eight Schools for
Union.County dated June 15, 1995. Flow rate calculations conforming to 15A NCAC
2H.0219 1(3) are in Appendix II of that Amendment. As stated in the Amendment,
Parkwood High School flows will be combined with the Parkwood Middle School flows
and become a single discharge on the Middle School site. The treatment process,
as allowed by the NCDEM letter of November 9, 1995, signed by Mr. Dennis Ramsey,
is the recirculating sand filter. As stated in the Amendment, disinfection is
by ultraviolet light. A copy of the Amendment is attached for your use.
Daily storage is provided by a tank of 13,464 gallons effective volume.
j Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact our office.

Dear Mr. Shalati,
A request for spec"-ve 'etfluent limits has beau submitted by Dale Stewart of Lased
Design Engineering Services for the proposed combined flow from Unionville Elementary
School, piedmont Middle and High. Schools. The Technical Support Branch has
completed its analysis of the proposed discharge. In order to receive final permit limits, a
f0fmal application will have to be submitted to the Division's Permits and Enguteermg
Unit.
Flow estimates for Crooked Creek at the discbarge site are listed below. These

dischargers to regional facilities of xftvt,;,
Please be advised that response to this request does not guarantee that the Division
will issue an NMES permit to discharge Mated wastewater into these receiving waters. It
should be noted that now and expanding facilities, involving anexpenditm of public funds
or use of public (state) lands. will be required to pnpatre an envi omneatal assessment (EA)
when waste flows: 1) exceed or equal 0.5 MGD, or 2) exceed one-third of the 7Q10 flow
of the receiving stream. DEM will not accept a permit application for a -project requiring an
EA until the document has been approved by the Department of Enviro=ent, Health and
Natural Resoumes, and a Funding of No Significant Impact (EONSI) has been sent to the
state Clearinghouse for review and comment.
The EA should contain a clear jusdficcavon for the proposed facility and an analysis
Of potential alternatives which should include a thorough evaluation of non -discharge
alternatives. Non -discharge alternatives or alternatives to expansion, such as spray
irrigation, water conservation, inflow and infiltration reduction or cojumuon to a reonal
treatment and disposal system, are considered to be environmentally preferable to a surface
water discharge. In =Orlon= with the North Carolina General Statutes, the practicable
waste treatment and disposal alternative with the ]east adverse impact on the environment is
required to be implemented.
If she EA demonstrates that the project may result in a significant adverse affect on
the duality of the environment, an Environmental Impact Statement would be required.
Monica Swihart of the Water Quality Planning Branch can provide further information
regarding the requirements of the NC Environmental Policy Act

Thank you for your December 12, 1995 letter concerning the
subject above. We appreciate your acceptance of.our proposed
schedule for the Parkwood Schools. As you suggested, we are
continuing to evaluate the viability of a non -discharge
system for New Salem and intend on providing the results
during March of 1996.
After pursuing your suggestion on the effluent limitations at
Parkwood Middle School other similar problem areas surfaced.
Because we are having grave difficulty in meeting'
limitations at a number of schools which are now scheduled
for major wastewater system upgrades we propose the following
changes monthly.
Elimina-te the, nitrogen limitations completely and
raise the BOD to 0 monthTy and-'45 weekly at Parkwood
Middle, Piedmont Hig an nionvi a Elementary.
The raise in effluents, if granted, would result in
all our schools being equally limited to 30 or 45.
Additionally the TSS at Parkwood Middle_j..s a
constant problem-f us. We propose a TSS increase
to 40 and 60 there.

Dear Mr. Sweeney:
This Office has reviewed the proposed new compliance schedules
for Parkwood Middle School (NPDES Permit No. NC0028517), Parkwood
High School (NPDES Permit No. NC0030651), and New Salem Elementary
School (NPDES Permit No. NC0030597)'submitted by Frank C. Cockinos
& Associates, Inc. on behalf of Union County Schools. Generally,
this Office has no objection to the proposed compliance schedules
for Parkwood Middle School and.Parkwood High School. However, the
proposed schedule for New Salem Elementary School is not yet
acceptable.
In Steve W. Tedder's letter to you, dated November 6, 1995, he
requested that you continue- to explore the non -discharge
alternatives, including the re-evaluation of the proposed drip
irrigation system. Therefore, this Office proposes to -include two
compliance schedules for New. Salem Elementary. School. One would be
for a non -discharge system (namely drip irrigation system which
must be re-evaluated for its cost effectiveness). If such a system
is found. not to be economically feasible, then a schedule for a
discharge system, based on findings that will- be obtained from
Parkwood schools' systems, may be necessary. We suggest that the
evaluation for the non -discharge system be submitted by March 31,
1996. Other dates will be set for the submission of plans and
.specifications, etc:, based on the results of the -non -discharge
evaluation.

Dear Mr. Sweeney:
Over the past several months there have been numerous contacts between you and
Division of Environmental Management (DEM) staff in an effort to determine the most
appropriate wastewater treatment systems to be utilized at the subject schools. While it has
taken longer than either of us would have liked, we are finally in a position to provide you
with a response to this question.
In your letter to us dated June 30, 1995, you indicated that you had determined that
recirculating sand filters are the most logical and economical alternative for each of the
subject schools. - You indicated this conclusion was based on an Engineering Report
prepared by Frank C. Cockinos & Associates, Inc. and the unrealistic bids that were
received on several nondischarge systems.
While the nondischarge options for all facilities, including these school, are considered
the superior environmental option, we also understand your concern with the cost and
viability of the currently available nondischarge options. Therefore, we will support your
request to maintain your current discharge for these schools until such time as a more viable
nondischarge system becomes available.
One of the reasons for our delay in responding to your request, is the inconclusiveness
of the data which is currently being compiled on operating recirculating sand filter systems.
While the data is encouraging, we do have concerns with the construction of numerous
recirculating systems until such time as more conclusive data is available on their ability to
.consistently meet limitations of BOD = 5 mg/1 and Ammonia = 2 mg/l.

Considering these various factors, we would support the construction of a
recirculating sand filter system to serve Parkwood High School and Parkwood Middle
School. The construction and operation of the recirculating sand filter system at the
Parkwood Schools should enable the school system to generate good data on which to
make a decision on which system should be installed at the New Salem Middle School.
Please remember that you must obtain an Authorization to Construct prior to the initiation
of construction of this recirculating system.
During the time when the data on the recirculating sand filters is being generated, you
should also continue to evaluate the nondischarge options for New Salem, including the re-
evaluation of the proposed drip irrigation design It is hoped that the cost of the drip
systems,. and other nondischarge systems, will become more reasonable as additional
systems are installed and DEM, the consultants and contractors become more comfortable
with their design and installation.
Please contact Rex Gleason of our Mooresville Regional Office to begin discussion on
modifications that will need to be made to the subject SOC in order to allow adequate time
for the new recirculating system to be installed at Parkwood High School and Parkwood
Middle School. The SOC modification will also address the extended schedule for New
Salem in order to allow for an evaluation of the new recirculating system and the available
nondischarge options.
If you need any additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact
either Rex Gleason at 704/663-1699 or Dennis Ramsey of our central office staff at (919)

Please accept my sincere thanks for the time you spent with me on October 5, 1995,
discussing our study of wastewater alternatives for solving the problems at Unionville,
Piedmont Middle and High Schools. For your reference a copy of the compliance schedule
from the SOC is attached.
From our meeting, we understand the Division's concern relating to the consideration of
any new discharge pending completion of a county wide sewer study. I understand from
Jimmy Gordon, Assistant Public Works Director, that proposals have been received, and
the County hopes to have this study completed within three to four months. However, we
feel the need to proceed with planning for the schools based on the compliance schedule.
As we discussed, one option that we feel is appropriate to evaluate is to combine the
wastewaters from all three (3) schools, which are discharging to zero flow streams, and
extend an effluent outfall down Grassy Branch to Crooked Creek.
We would like to request effluent limits for a discharge at this point (see enclosed map).
Based on the limits, we would evaluate the past performance of the existing facilities to
meet the limits. If it appears that additional treatment is needed, then we would evaluate
location of the additional treatment facilities at Piedmont High School to treat the combined
waste flows prior to entering the effluent outfall.

A tabulation of flows obtained from the school system is attached. It appears that
combined flows will likely range from 15,000 to 20,000 gpd, thus developing the effluent
limits for a 20,000 gpd flow appears appropriate.
As we discussed, we are recommending investigation of this option in lieu of the upgrade
of facilities at each school for continued discharge to the existing zero flow streams, or to
new non -discharge facilities in view of the poor soils in the area and anticipated higher cost
of land -based treatment at each school.
We sincerely appreciate your cooperation and trust you concur in proceeding with this
evaluation. If you have any questions, need additional information or need to discuss our
current strategy, please give me a call.
Very tr y yours,

I received the subject document on October 3, 1995. I
immediately called Dennis Ramsey, Special Order by Consent
(SOC) Director, NC Department of -Environment Health and
Natural Resources (DEHNR) inquiring as to why this document
was sent to us.
Mr. Ramsey has been spearheading a comprehensive review of
our entire SOC at the State level. Mr. Ramsey said no
decision had been made on the SOC and that he would get back
with me as to why we received a SOC modification draft.
On October 5, 1995 I once again spoke with Dennis Ramsey on
both matters. Mr. Ramsey instructed me to not act on the
SOC draft until further notice. Once the State DEHNR
(his department) had decided on what they want us to do they
would then readdress the draft.
I asked how long it would be before a decision would be made.
Mr. Ramsey was unsure. I then related to Mr. Ramsey that we
felt a decision must be made no -later than October 16, 1995
if they expected us to rebuild the New Salem and the
Parkwoods Waste Water Treatment Facilities by the opening of
school in August of 1996. Mr. Ramsey could not commit to a
decision by that date. I therefore asked if Dr. Thomas and
myself could meet with him and the Director of the DEHNR,
Mr. Howard at Mr. Howard's convenience. Mr. Ramsey said he
would arrange the appointment for us as soon as possible.

associated with the construction of a Union County Waste
Water Treatment Facility to service our Unionville
Elementary, Piedmont Middle and Piedmont High Schools. The
initial construction.cost estimates received by Union County
Public Works exceeded the budget and were therefore rejected.
New proposals were required and were just recently received.
This unexpected delay caused us to miss our Board of County

nally ideutified as: Authorize Engineering Services)... The
next meeting of the Board is scheduled for September 18,
1995. This is the base date for all succeeding project
milestones. Please accept the following adjusted dates as

As you are aware, I committed to submitting our SOC
reevaluation by 31 May 1995. Unfortunately, I have
experienced some complications.
We have completed a revised schedule proposal for New Salem,
and the Parkwoods. However, milestones for Unionville and
the Piedmonts have not been completely coordinated with Union
County Public Works. We expect they will -provide sewage
service to eliminate the waste water treatment facility
requirements for these three schools. Hemby Bridge will
remain as planned.
We now expect to have our evaluations on all seven schools to
you no later than 8 June 1995.
I deeply apologize for the delay and any inconvenience it may
have caused. Thank you in advance for.your assistance in
this matter and your continuous support. Please call if
additional information is required.

Thank you for your letter to me dated November 8, '1994 and for meeting with our
staff on February 24, 1995. In your letter, you requested we consider allowing the Union
County Board of Education to upgrade the existing discharging treatment systems serving
New Salem Elementary School, Parkwood Middle School and Parkwood High School
rather than installing non discharging systems for these schools. You stated that your
request was in response to the high bids received on the non discharging system for New
Salem Elementary School and your concern for similar bids on the Parkwood Schools.
All of these schools discharge to streams with a 7Q10 and a 30Q2 low flow of 0.0
cubic feet per second. This being the case, the NPDES permit for each school requires
that the. Union County Board of Education evaluate alternatives to direct discharge for
each school and removal of the discharges if economically feasible alternatives are
available.
Your letter indicated that the low bid for a 4,000 gpd drip irrigation system to serve
New Salem Elementary School was $253,000 or $1,150 per student. We agree this cost
would not appear to be economically feasible. Therefore, your request to be allowed to
submit an engineering report comparing the cost of upgrading the existing discharging
to be reasonable and is
approved.
During the evaluation of the options available for these schools, please closely
evaluate the reasons for the high bids received on the system for New Salem. These bids
are much higher than what we would have anticipated for this type system. A similar
system was recently installed in Union County for a much lower cost per gallon. We also
noted that the non discharging system was designed for 4,000 gpd while the existing
system is permitted for only 3,000 gpd. Are there any plans to increase the enrollment at
this school? Since expansion of the existing discharge is not allowable, the cost.
comparisons must be made between systems designed for 3,000 gpd:

When conducting your evaluation of alternatives, please also evaluate other options
such as connection to publicly owned treatment systems, subsurface disposal, and spray
irrigation. Please find enclosed a form which must be used in these evaluations.
While our Rules do allow existing discharges to remain if there are no economically
feasible alternatives available, we would strongly encourage the non discharging
alternatives. If these discharges were allowed to remain, the effluent limitations which
would be required will be very restrictive., It would take a very well designed system and
constant care by the operator and school staff to comply with these limitations.
Please rovide us with a schedule by which you propose to complete your evaluation
no later than April 1, 19 Once we receive this information, a decision will be made on the most appropriate actions needed to address the,scheduleviolations with the
existing SOC.
If we can be of any further assistance in this or any other matter, please do not
hesitate to contact either Rex Gleason, Water Quality Regional Supervisor of our
Mooresville Regional Office at 704/663-1699 or Dennis R. Ramsey of our Raleigh staff at 919/733-5083, ext. 528.
