Inspection also indicated that there were no instream issues observed. COMPLIANCE: During the permit cycle this facility did not have any enforcement actions and only had a few minor issues that lead to notices.

FILE HISTEORY REVIEW SUMMARY • Waste Load Allocation (WLA) in 1985 for 0.025 MGD discharging to Pond Creek (not to a UT). Authorization to Construct (ATC) issued in 1985 for construction of 13,000 GPD facility. • 1991 WLA establishes the discharge as to a zero flow unnamed tributary to Pond Creek. Limits modified to reflect this change with Fecal dropping from 1000 to 200. Chronic Toxicity limits are added to the permit as it is noted that the facility cannot meet NH3-N limits. • 1995 WLA - no changes. Permittee requested review of flow but USGS verifies zero flow. No changes to allocations. New ATC issued in 1995 for construction of 25,000GPD treatment system. • 1998 - At permittee's request, the Division approves modification of the permit to replace toxicity testing requirements with NH3-N limits set at 2mg/L in summer and 4 mg/L in winter (monthly average) • 2000 Permit Renewal - no changes from 1998 modification. • 2005 Permit Renewal -NH3-N daily max limits are added - 10 and 20 mg/L (summer & winter). Reissued permit also adds TRC limit at 17 µg/L. • 2011 Permit Renewal - the treatment system components list is updated to clarify the system. Outfall latitude and longitude are also updated. • 2016 Permit Update - includes regulatory citation updates.

I hope to have the draft available for public notice soon. I wanted to try and get in touch with Mr. Kevin Hamlin about the renewal process. The Division of Water Resources is currently transitioning towards electronic correspondence in order to provide more convenience, control, and security to our permittees and assist them in processing their transactions. This will hopefully provide more efficient service to our permittees and other partners and will allow us to more effectively process and track documents. With this, we would like to ask you for your approval of the transmittal of documents related to your permitting and related activities with the Division in an electronic format. Documents will be emailed to the appropriate contact person(s) in your organization in a PDF format. Please respond to me through email with verification that transmittal of your documents in an electronic manner is acceptable to you. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. At this time contact through email is best since most of our staff are working out of the office. If we need to set up a time for a phone call we can do that through email. The permit application lists Mr. Hamlin as the Responsible Party for the permit but did not give an email address. Our records did have this email address as a general one for this facility. If this email does not get to Mr. Hamlin could you please contact me with an appropriate email contact.

They are still using the EQ and the flows will now be reported accurately as they have in the past. They changed operator and she was likely not using well records. They have not added anymore trailers yet but still plan to in the future. The permit says continuous which I am ok with especially with them wanting to add more trailers.

Realized you had some other comments I didn't respond to. The old plant used as EQ basin - this has been in the permit since 2011. 1 think they may have got that from the 1995 ATC that says the construction of the new treatment system will include an aerated equalization basin constructed from the old plant. But it didn't show up in the system components that way until 2011. in their current application that include the same language under the system components? I don't much additional info about any added trailers, but the renewal application shows 75 home which is up from 62 in the 2016 application.
