In response to the Town of Taylorsvilles SSO's occurring on February 6th, the cause for these
overflows were due to severe natural conditions. The town experienced a downpour of 5.51
inches of rain in just a 24 hour period. Prior to this event, town employees made routine checks
on all pump stations and made sure all emergency equipment was in operation. Crews also used
Vac trucks to pump out wet wells at high priority pump stations, such as Northwood and Paul
Payne pump station. Crews visited and recorded accurate data for each overflow site. Once the
SSO's subsided and it was safe to do so, crews, again went to each overflow site to clean the
spill and make sure all equipment was in operation.
Sincerely,
David Odom

Subject: Permit No. WQCS00134
Town of Taylorsville
Taylorsville Collection System
Alexander County
Dear Mr. Robinette:
In accordance with your application received May 4, 2016, we are forwarding herewith Permit No.
WQCS00135, dated June 6, 2016, to the Town of Taylorsville for the operation and maintenance of the subject
wastewater collection system.
This permit shall be effective from November 1, 2016 until October 31, 2024 and shall be subject to the
conditions and limitations specified herein. It is your responsibility to thoroughly review this permit. Please
pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting requirements in this permit and any special
conditions.
Changes have been made to the boiler plate language of the permit. Most of the changes are for clarification
purposes, however Condition 1(3) has been removed. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ)
believes that condition was included erroneously in previous permits. It was included based on proposed
rulemaking by EPA which was never promulgated and, in the continued absence of Federal regulations, DEQ
lacks authority to include such language in a permit. DEQ will continue to exercise enforcement discretion
when evaluating sanitary sewer overflows that may be considered to be beyond the reasonable control of the
Permittee. A highlighted copy of the permit identifying the changes made is available at:
http://ncdenr.s3.amazonaws.com/s3fs-
public/Water%20Quality/Surface%2OWater%2OProtection/PERCS/WCS%20(Collection%2OSvstem)/Updated
%20WQCS%20Template%2015.05.18%20(highlighted).Pdf
For purposes of permitting, the collection system is considered'to be any existing or newly installed system
extension up to the wastewater treatment facility property or point of connection with a separately owned
sewer system. The collection system is considered all gravity lines, pump stations, force mains, low pressure
sewer systems, STEP systems, vacuum systems, etc. and associated piping, valves and appurtenances that
help to collect, manage and transport wastewater to a wastewater treatment plant under the Permittee's
ownership or maintained and operated by the Permittee through a perpetual legal agreement. Satellite
systems are systems tributary to the Permittee's collection system but those collection systems are not owned
or maintained by the Permittee. The system description provided on Page 1 of this permit is meant to provide
a general idea about the size of the system and may not be all inclusive of the collection system at the time of
permit issuance or afterward.

Taylorsville Collection System
June 6, 2016
A discharge of wastewater to the environment from the Permittee's wastewater collection system prior to
reaching the wastewater treatment facilities is referred to herein as a Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO). The
evaluation of enforcement options after an SSO will be determined considering all relevant information
available or requested of the Permittee. Compliance with all conditions of the permit as well as all statutes
and regulations pertaining to the wastewater collection system must be maintained or appropriate
enforcement actions may be taken as noted in Condition VI(2).
A reportable SSO is an SSO greater than 1,000 gallons to the ground or an SSO of any amount that reaches
surface water (including through ditches, storm drains, etc.). Reporting requirements including the required
verbal report and written report to the appropriate regional office are referenced in Condition IV(2). Form
CS-SSO can be downloaded from the SSO Reporting area at:
http://ncdenr.s3.amazonaws.com/s3fs-
public/Water%20Quality/Surface%20Water%20Protection/PERCS/WCS%20(SSO%20Documents)/CS-
SSO(2015).doc
A notice of deficiency (NOD), notice of violation (NOV), civil penalty, and/or a moratorium on the addition of
waste to the system may be issued if adequate justification for an SSO is NOT submitted to the regional office.
In order to submit a claim for justification of an SSO, you must use Part II of form CS-SSO with additional
documentation as necessary. DWR staff will review the justification claim and determine if enforcement
action is appropriate. Please be advised that the information needed to justify a spill is very comprehensive.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty days following the receipt of this permit.
This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150E of the North Carolina
General Statutes, and filed With the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC
27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.
If you have questions regarding compliance, contact the appropriate regional office. If you need additional
information concerning this permit, please contact Steve Lewis at [phone].

Page 1 of 7

I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the properly permitted
Wastewater Treatment Facility identified in the permit application and documented in the Division's
database. [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
2. The wastewater collection system shall be effectively managed, maintained and operated at all times
to prevent discharge to land or surface waters, and to prevent any contravention of groundwater
standards or surface water standards. In the event that the wastewater collection system fails to
perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate
actions as per the Response Action Plan (Condition II(9)), as well as any actions that may be required by
the Division of Water Resources (Division), such as the construction of additional or replacement sewer
lines and/or equipment. [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
3. The Permittee shall establish by ordinance, inter -local agreement or contract its legal authority to
require new sewers be properly constructed; to ensure proper inspection and testing of sewer mains
and service laterals; to address flows from satellite systems and to take enforcement action as required
by Condition 1(4). [G.S. 143-215.913; G.S. 143-215.1(f)(1)]
4. The Permittee shall develop and implement an educational fats, oils and grease program that shall
include at least semiannual distribution of educational material targeted at both residential and non-
residential users. The Permittee shall also develop and implement an enforceable fats, oils and grease
program for non-residential users under which the Permittee can take enforcement against users who
have not properly installed, operated and maintained grease traps or grease interceptors as directed
or otherwise violated the terms of the enforcement program pertaining to fats, oils and grease.
[15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
5. The Permittee shall adopt and implement a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to designate funding for
reinvestment into the wastewater collection system infrastructure. The CIP should address the short-
term needs and long-term "master plan" concepts. The CIP should typically cover a three to five year
period and include a goal statement, description of the project area, description of the existing facilities,
known deficiencies (over a reasonable period) and forecasted future needs. Cost analysis is integral to
the CIP. [G.S. 143-215.913]
6. Overflow piping from manholes and pump stations, excluding piping to approved equalization
structures, known or discovered after permit issuance shall be immediately removed or permanently
capped. Plugged or valved emergency pumping connections are allowable for portable pumping or
rerouting without intentionally bypassing the wastewater treatment facility.
[15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
7. The Permittee shall maintain a contingency plan for pump failure at each pump station. If one of the
pumps in a pump station containing multiple pumps fails, the process of repairing or replacing the pump
shall be initiated immediately and the new parts or pump shall be installed as soon as possible. The
permittee shall provide justification for delay in initiating the process for repair or replacement at the
Division's request. If the pump in a simplex pump station serving more than a single building or pump
stations not capable of pumping at a rate of 2.5 times the average daily flow rate with the largest pump
out of service fails, it shall be replaced immediately. [15A NCAC 02T .0305 (h) (1)]
Page 2 of 7

8. Each pump station shall be clearly and conspicuously posted with a pump station identifier and an
emergency contact telephone number at which an individual who can initiate or perform emergency
service for the wastewater collection system 24 hours per day, seven days per week can be contacted.
This emergency contact telephone number shall be coupled with instructions that the emergency
contact should be called if the visual alarm illuminates, if the audible alarm sounds, or if an emergency
is apparent. [15A NCAC 02T .0305 (h) (2)]
9. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access.
[15A NCAC 02T .0305 (h) (4)]
10. Pump stations that do not employ an automatic polling feature (i.e. routine contact with pump stations
from a central location to check operational status of the communication system) shall have both
audible and visual high water alarms. The alarms shall be weather-proof and placed in a clear and
conspicuous location. Permits issued for the construction of pump stations that included high water
alarms in the description must maintain the alarms even if simple telemetry (i.e. notification of an alarm
condition initiated by the pump station control feature) is installed.
[15A NCAC 02T .0305 (h) (1)]
11. For. all newly constructed, modified and rehabilitated pump stations, all equipment and components
shall be sealed within a corrosion -resistant coating or encasement to the extent practicable and
equivalent to the minimum design criteria unless the permittee can demonstrate it is not practicable
or another form of corrosion resistance is employed.. [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. Upon classification of the collection system by the Water Pollution Control System Operators
Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate and employ a certified operator to
be in responsible charge (ORC) and one or more certified operator(s) to be back-up ORC(s) of the
facilities in accordance with 15A NCAC 8G .0201. The ORC shall visit the system within 24 hours of
knowledge of a bypass, spill, or overflow of wastewater from the system, unless visited by the Back -Up
ORC, and shall comply with all other conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0204.
[15A NCAC 08G .0200 et.seq.]
2. The Permittee shall develop and adhere to a schedule for reviewing all inspection, maintenance,
operational and complaint logs. If the review process results in the identification of any recurring
problem in the wastewater collection system that cannot be resolved in a short time period, the
Permittee shall establish a plan for addressing the problem(s). [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
3. The Permittee shall develop and adhere to a schedule for testing emergency and standby equipment.
[15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
4. The Permittee shall develop and implement a routine pump station inspection and maintenance
program which shall include the following maintenance activities:
a. Cleaning and removing debris from the pump station structure, outside perimeter, and wet
well;
b. Inspecting and exercising all valves;
c. Inspecting and lubricating pumps and other mechanical equipment; and
d. Verifying the proper operation of the alarms, telemetry system and auxiliary equipment.
[15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
Page 3 of 7

5. For each pump station without pump reliability (i.e. simplex pump stations serving more than a single
building or pump stations not capable of pumping at a rate of 2.5 times the average daily flow rate with
the largest pump out of service), at least one fully operational spare pump capable of pumping peak
flow shall be maintained on hand. [15A NCAC 02T .0305 (h) (1) (A)]
6. The Permittee shall maintain on hand at least two percent of the number.of pumps installed, but no
less than two pumps, that discharge to a pressure sewer and serve a single building, unless the
Permittee has the ability to purchase and install a replacement pump within 24 hours of first knowledge
of the simplex pump failure or within the storage capacity provided in a sewer line extension permit.
[15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
7. Rights -of -way and/or easements shall be properly maintained to allow accessibility to the wastewater
collection system unless the Permittee can demonstrate the ability to gain temporary access in an
emergency situation where existing land -use conditions do not allow the establishment and
maintenance of permanent access. In this case, the Permittee shall continue to observe the lines
visually, utilize remote inspection methods (e.g. CCTV) and use the opportunity of drier conditions to
perform further inspections and necessary maintenance. [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]
The Permittee shall assess cleaning needs, and develop and implement a program for appropriately
cleaning, whether by hydraulic or mechanical methods, the wastewater collection system. At least 10
percent of the gravity wastewater collection system, selected at the discretion of the ORC, shall be
cleaned each year. Preventative cleaning is not required for sewer lines less than five years old unless
inspection otherwise reveals the need for cleaning or cleaning is required by a sewer line extension
permit. [15A NCAC 02T .0108 (b)]

Town of Taylorsville CS#WQCS00135
Tracking No: NOV-2016-DV-0161
Alexander County
Dear Mr. Basinger,
This letter is the Town of Taylorsville's response to the recent NOV letter from your
office regarding the two SSO's listed. First of all, concerning incident #201600686 at Rocktenn.
The Town followed NCDEQ protocol in keeping our lines jetted or videoed on the 10% per year
schedule, and as mentioned in our response, this line had been jetted within two years of this
SSO. The Town has decided to increase the frequency of jetting this line (between MH 365 and
MH 366) and any main -artery -line that produces an SSO to "once per year". The line was again
jetted at the time of the SSO, so twice in two years to this date. The 8" PVC line is relatively
new (around 5-6 years old).
As for incident #201600687 at the Alexander Correctional Facility PS on Old Landfill
road, it needs to be noted that the Town of Taylorsville does not own this pump station. Any
and all enforcement actions regarding SSO's would be paid by the NCDOC. The Town of
Taylorsville exercises reasonable care in monitoring the NCDOC's property at their pump station
through our trained Collection Systems staff, and their scada system, but the NCDOC is
responsible for repairs and costs. The Town of Taylorsville (both before and since this SSO),
have met with Clearwater to test force main pressures, incoming flows, motor amperages, and
pumping rates at this station. The Town of Taylorsville ordered the highest volume impeller for
one of the pumps at the Town's expense to try to help the NCDOC's pump station to meet its
current flow demands. The Town feels that we have taken reasonable actions in both
incidents to protect public health and our valuable natural resources.
If you have any more questions concerning these matters, please feel free to contact
me at the Taylorsville Town Hall anytime between 8-5pm at 828-632-2218. Thank you.
Sincerely,
,z-�Yzj�

Taylorsville Collection System
Alexander County
Dear Mr. Odom:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report/s submitted by
Town of Taylorsville. The Division's Mooresville Regional Office concludes that the Town of Taylorsville violated
Permit Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00135 by failing to effectively manage, maintain, and operate their
collection system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or surface waters and the SSO
constituted making 'an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is
required by G.S. 143-215.1.
The Mooresville Regional Office is providing the Town of Taylorsville an opportunity to provide evidence and
justification as to why the Town of Taylorsville should not be assessed a civil penalty for the violation(s) that are
summarized below:

Dear Mr. Odom:
John E. Skvarla, III

Mr. Barry Love and Ms. Barbara Sifford, of the NC Division of Water Resources,
Mooresville Regional Office (MRO) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the
Town of Taylorsville's wastewater collection system, permit number WQCS00135, on November
25, 2014. The assistance and cooperation of Mr. David Robinette and Mr. Warren Miller was
greatly appreciated. An inspection report is attached for your records.
Please take special note of the comments in the Performance Standards, Inspections, and

Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Wastewater Collection System
Permit No. WQCS00135
Taylorsville Alexander County

Dee Freeman
Secretary
Ms. Barbara Sifford, of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Mooresville Regional
Office (MRO) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the Town of Taylorsville's
wastewater collection system, permit number WQCS00135, on December 14, 2011. The
assistance and cooperation of, Mr. David Robinette, Mr. Brian Eades, Mr. Warren Miller and
Mr. Claude Weaver was greatly appreciated. Please note that the sections completed on the
report pertain only to the areas that were inspected. An inspection report is attached for your
records and inspection findings are detailed below.
The collection system for the Town of Taylorsville consists of approximately 32 miles of
gravity sewer line, and twenty-four (24) duplex pump stations. The system conveys wastewater
to the Town of Taylorsville Wastewater Treatment Facility (NPDES NC0026271) for treatment.
Since the last inspection the system has been extended to the community of Hiddenite. This
increased the number of pump stations and the total miles of sewer line. The collection system
was classified as Grade 2 and therefore must have an ORC certified at Grade 2 level and a
Backup ORC must be at least a Grade 1 collection system. Currently these positions are staffed
but the town may have more than one back up ORC as deemed necessary. The permit is due to
expire 10/31/2016, an application for renewal should be submitted six months prior to this date.
The inspection revealed that the Town has made improvements to the collection system
since the last inspection. The Northwoods pump station has been totally upgraded and 300
manholes have been coated and over 20,000 feet of old clay pipe has been slip lined to reduce
the infiltration of ground water to the collection system. From these efforts Northwoods pump
station has not had a reportable overflow since January 2010. With the extension of the
collection system to Hiddenite and the reduction of I/I the annual average flow to the WWTP has
remained virtually the same for the future growth of Alexander County.

Performance Standards
The Town of Taylorsville has a Sewer Use Ordinance prohibiting the discharge of fats,
oils, and grease into the collection system, this needs to be enhanced to cover the requirements
of Section 1.4 of the permit stating that the Permitee shall develop and implement an enforceable
fats, oils and grease program for non-residential users under which the Permittee can take
enforcement against users who have not properly installed, operated and maintained grease traps
or grease interceptors as directed or violated terms of the local ordinance. The requirement for
public education targeted at both residential and non-residential users should be part of this
implementation. Note that this is an enforceable condition of the permit.
The Town has a Capitol Improvement Plan (CIP) with specific project description and
estimated costs for each phase. The CIP covers six years. By planning the Town has been able to
repair existing infrastructure and expand the service area of the system.
A customer compliant log that includes dates, response time, action taken, and cause of
problems needs to be maintained, even if it is not for a reportable spill. The attached
Compliance Evaluation Inspection report lists the information that should be available for
review.
Operation and Maintenance
The Compliance Evaluation Inspection report lists the information that must be kept for a
period of three years for pump stations, emergency generators, and right of way maintenance;
and available for review during inspections by DWQ. The generators are automatically started
each week but no record of runtime is documented. An annual system observation should be
recorded for the off street sections of lines within the collection system.
Pump Stations
Three pump stations were inspected. General housekeeping was acceptable. With the
new Mission Controls data for the pump stations is available in this program. Spread sheets are
automatically generated with pump runtime data, entry key swipe indicates which employee was
on site, rainfall data loggers are located throughout the collection system to compare rainfall to
increased runtime, any data above the previous days recording will automatically send an alert to
a change in the pump station records and staff will then determine if a site visit is necessary.
Records for the stations were available since 2009 when this system was purchased. Records for
the system should be available for a minimum of three years. All pump stations are inspected
weekly. The collection system for the Town of Taylorsville consists of lines and pump stations
owned by both Alexander County and the Department of Correction. The Town of Taylorsville
operates and maintains the system as one with contracts to address extensive maintenance issues.

Records
Records of all spills and complaints need to be maintained for tracking trouble spots in
the collection system. The Town is required to clean at a minimum 10% of the line footage of
the system each year. Last year this was accomplished during the rehabilitation projects, a
tracking system should be implemented to make sure that this condition is met each year by
contract cleaning or staff cleaning of the system.
Monitorin,e and Reporting Requirements
An annual report was submitted in July 2011 for the collection system. There were no
reportable spills listed in BIMS for 2011.
Lines /Right --of —Ways/Aerial Lines
All lines and right-of-ways that were visited were accessible, free of sinkholes, and
showed no evidence of leakage. Only one high priority lines is listed in the permit, additional
lines were identified during the inspection and need to be added. Right of Ways are mowed
several times a year, documentation of this mowing is also inspection of the off street areas of
the collection system.
If you have any questions concerning this inspection report or noted record keeping
requirements, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sifford at [phone].
Sincerely,

Subject: Permit No. WQCS00135 (Renewal)
Town of Taylorsville
Collection System
Alexander County
In accordance with your application received on May 22, 2008, we are forwarding herewith Permit No.
WQCS00135, dated September 8, 2008, to The Town of Taylorsville for the operation and maintenance
of the subject wastewater collection system.
This permit shall be effective from the effective date of November 1, 2008 until October 31, 2013. This
permit shall be subject to the conditions and limitations specified herein. It is your responsibility to
thoroughly review this permit. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting
requirements in this permit and any compliance schedules shown in bold.
For purposes of permitting, the collection system is considered to be any existing or newly installed ,
system extension up to the wastewater treatment facility property or point of connection with a
separately owned sewer system. The collection system is considered all gravity lines, pump stations,
force mains, low pressure sewer systems, STEP systems, vacuum systems, etc. and associated piping,
valves and appurtenances that help to collect, manage and transport wastewater to a wastewater
treatment plant under the Permittee's ownership or maintained and operated by the Permittee through
a perpetual legal agreement. Satellite. systems are systems tributary to the Permittee's collection system
but those collection systems are not owned or maintained by the Permittee. The system description
provided on Page 1 of this permit is meant to provide a general idea about the size of the system and
may not be all inclusive of the collection system at the time of permit issuance or afterward.
A release of wastewater from the wastewater collection system is referred to herein as a Sanitary Sewer
Overflow (SSO). The evaluation of enforcement options after a SSO will be determined considering the
criteria listed in condition I(2) (a) and 1(2) (b) of the permit and all other relevant information available or
requested of the Permittee. Compliance with all conditions of the permit as well as all statutes and
regulations pertaining to the collection system must be maintained or appropriate enforcement actions
may be taken as noted in Condition VI(2).
A reportable SSO is a SSO greater than 1,000 gallons to the ground or a SSO of any amount that reaches
surface water (including through ditches, storm drains, etc.) Below is the procedure to use for reporting
SSOs to the Division:
1. Report by telephone to a Division of Water Quality staff member (not facsimile or voicemail) at
your regional DWQ office during regular business hours (Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM) as soon
One Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unitlnternet http://h2o.enr.state-nc.us/ndpu
NorthCarofiina 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Telephone [phone] Fax [phone]

as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours after the SSO is known or discovered. To report
outside of regular business hours, call [phone].
2. Follow up the verbal report by sending a completed written report on the most current Division
approved form within five days.
To provide a uniform method for all systems covered under this permit and to provide useful and
consistent information pertaining to SSOs, a new spill reporting form has been developed (October
2003). Form CS-SSO consists of two parts. Part I serves to provide to the Division the required information
that has always been necessary. Part II serves as an area to provide a justification for the spill, as
optional under Condition 1(2) of your permit. Form CS-SSO can be downloaded from
httiD://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/oeres/Collection%2bsystems/CollectionSvstemsHome.html from the SSO
'Reporting area.
An NOV, civil penalty, and/or a moratorium on the addition of waste to the system may be issued if
adequate justification for an SSO is NOT submitted to the regional office. In order to submit a claim for
justification of an SSO, you.must use the Form CS-SSO with additional documentation as necessary.
DWQ staff will review the justification claim and determine if enforcement action is appropriate. Please
be advised that the information needed to justify a spill is very comprehensive. Begin using this form
immediately to report SSOs from the collection system. Continue to use our old form for reporting
bypasses at the'wastewater treatment plant until further notice. The time frame for submittal of both
Part I and Part II, if pertinent, is five days.
Failure to abide by the conditions in this permit may subject the Permittee to enforcement action. If any
parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty days following the receipt of this
permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150E of the North
Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC 27699-6.714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.
If you have questions regarding compliance contact your regional office or Jeff Poupart of the
.Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit of the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning this permit, please contact
Thomas Ascenzo in the Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit at (919) 807-
6313.

signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:
a) The SSO was caused by severe natural conditions; there were no feasible alternatives to
the SSO, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated .
wastewater, reduction of inflow and infiltration, use of adequate back-up equipment, or
an increase in the capacity of the system. This provision is not satisfied if, in the exercise
of reasonable engineering judgment, the Permittee should have installed auxiliary or
additional collection system components, wastewater retention or treatment facilities,
adequate back-up equipment or should have reduced inflow and infiltration; or
b) the SSO was exceptional, unintentional, temporary and caused by factors beyond the
reasonable control of the Permittee; the SSO could not have been prevented by the.
exercise of reasonable control, such as proper management, operation and
maintenance; adequate treatment facilities or collection system facilities or components
(e.g., adequately enlarging treatment or collection facilities to accommodate growth or
adequately controlling and preventing infiltration and inflow); preventive maintenance;
or installation of adequate back-up equipment;
The Permittee can submit a claim to the Division Regional Office that the SSO meets the, criteria
of this_condition. The Permittee has the option of submitting this claim along with the spill report
required by Condition IV(2) (i.e., within five days) in order to be considered for immunity from
enforcement action. Form CS-SSO Part II, or most current Division approved form, shall be used
for.any claims. The Permittee has the burden of proof that the above criteria have been met.
3. The Permittee shall establish by ordinance its legal authority to require new sewers be properly
constructed; to ensure proper inspection and testing of sewer mains and service laterals; to
address flows from satellite systems and to take enforcement action as required by Condition
I(4).
The Permittee shall develop and implement an educational fats, oils and grease program that
shall include at least bi-annual distribution of educational material targeted at both residential
and non-residential users. The Permittee shall also develop and implement an enforceable fats,
oils and grease program for non-residential users under which the Permittee can take
enforcement against users who have not properly installed, operated and maintained grease
traps or grease interceptors as directed or otherwise violated the terms of the local ordinance
pertaining to fats, oils and grease.
S. The Permittee shall adopt and implement a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to designate
funding for reinvestment into the wastewater collection system infrastructure. The CIP should
address the short-term needs and long-term "master plan" concepts. The CIP should typically
cover a three to five year period and include a goal statement, description of the project area,
description of the existing facilities, known deficiencies (over a reasonable period) and
forecasted future needs. Cost analysis is integral to the CIP. .
2

6. Existing overflow piping from manholes and pump stations, excluding piping to approved
equalization structures, known or discovered after permit issuance shall be immediately
removed or permanently capped. Plugged emergency pumping connections are allowable for
portable pumping or rerouting without intentionally bypassing the wastewater treatment facility.
7. The Permittee shall maintain a contingency plan for pump failure at each pump station. If one
of the pumps in a pump station containing multiple pumps fails, the process of repairing or
replacing the pump shall be initiated immediately and the new parts or pump shall be installed
as soon as possible. If the pump in a simplex pump station fails, it shall be replaced immediately.
8. Each pump station shall be clearly and conspicuously posted with a pump station identifier and
an emergency contact telephone number at which an individual who can initiate or perform
emergency service for the wastewater collection system 24 hours per day, seven days per week
can be contacted. This emergency contact telephone number shall be coupled with
instructions that the emergency contact should be called if the visual alarm illuminates, if the
audible alarm sounds, or if an emergency is apparent.
9. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 02T
..305(h) (4).
10. Pump stations that do not employ an automatic polling feature (i.e. routine contact with pump
stations from a central location to check operational status of the communication system) shall
have both audible and visual high water alarms. The alarms shall be weather-proof and placed
in a clear and conspicuous location. Permits issued for the construction of pump stations that
included high water alarms in the description must maintain the alarms even if simple telemetry
(i.e. notification of an alarm condition initiated by the pump station control feature) is installed.
11. For all newly constructed, modified and rehabilitated pump stations, all equipment and
components located within the pump station shall be corrosion -resistant and components in
close proximity of the pump station shall be sealed within a corrosion -resistant coating or
encasement.
12. All construction and rehabilitation of the wastewater collection system (i.e., permitted or
deemed permitted) shall be scheduled to minimize the interruption of service by the existing
utilities. Construction and rehabilitation shall not result in the violation of Condition (1) (2) of this
permit.

wet well;
b. Inspecting and exercising all valves;
c. Inspecting and lubricating pumps and other mechanical equipment according to the
manufacturer's recommendations; and
d. Verifying the proper operation of the alarms, telemetry system and auxiliary equipment.
5. For each pump station without pump reliability (i.e. simplex pump stations serving more than a
single building or pump stations not capable of pumping at a rate of 2.5 times the average daily
flow rate with the largest pump out of service), at least one fully operational spare pump
capable of pumping peak flow shall be maintained on hand.
6. The Permittee shall maintain on hand at least two percent of the number of pumps installed, but
no less than two pumps, that discharge to a, pressure sewer and serve a single building, unless

Dear Mr. Odom:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Report/s submitted by
Town of Taylorsville. The Division's Mooresville Regional Office concludes that the Town of Taylorsville violated
Permit Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00135 by failing to effectively manage, maintain, and operate their
collection system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the. land or surface waters and the SSO
constituted making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is
required by G.S. 143-215.1.
The Mooresville Regional Office is providing -the Town of Taylorsville an opportunity to provide evidence and
justification as to why the Town of Taylorsville should not be assessed a civil penalty for the violation(s) that are

Permit No. WQCS00135
Taylorsville —Alexander County
Dear Mr. Odom:
Ms. Barbara Sifford, of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Mooresville
Regional Office (MRO) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the Town
of Taylorsville's wastewater collection system, permit number WQCS00135, on March
7, 2009. The assistance and cooperation of, Mr. David Robinette and Mr. Brian Eades
was greatly appreciated. Please note that the sections completed on the report pertain
only to the areas that were inspected. An inspection report is attached for your records
and inspection findings are detailed below.
The collection system for the Town of Taylorsville consists of approximately 23
miles of gravity sewer line, and twenty (20) duplex pump stations. The system conveys
wastewater to the Town of Taylorsville Wastewater Treatment Facility (NPDES
NC0026271) for treatment. The collection system was classified as Grade 2.and
therefore must have an ORC certified at Grade 2 level and a Backup ORC must be at
least a Grade 1 collection system. Currently these positions are staffed but the town may
have more than one back up ORC as needed. The forms for submitting ORC are
included with this letter, please provide a copy to the Mooresville Regional Office for our
records in addition to sending the form to Raleigh.
Generally, the inspection revealed that the Town's collection system is being
properly operated and maintained. A copy of DENR's reporting and record keeping
requirements for a collection system was reviewed for guidance. Please be aware that all
records pertinent to the collection system must to be maintained for three years.

Performance Standards
The Town of Taylorsville has a Sewer Use Ordinance prohibiting the discharge of
fats, oils, and grease into the collection system, this may need to be reviewed for more
stringent enforcement language. The requirement for public education concerning fats,
oils, and grease (FOG) can be met several ways. Please provide examples of how the
Town plans on meeting this "education" requirement in your response to this letter.
The Town has a Capitol Improvement Plan (CIP) specific projects are not
outlined as to project description and estimated costs for each phase. The CIP is to cover
at a minimum a three- year schedule of expenses.
A customer compliant log that includes dates, response time, action taken, and
cause of problems needs to be maintained, even if it is not for a reportable spill. The
attached Compliance Evaluation Inspection report lists the information that should be
available for review.
Operation and Maintenance
The Compliance Evaluation Inspection report lists the information that must be
kept for a period of three years for pump stations, emergency generators, and right of way
maintenance; and available for review during inspections by DWQ. A response action
plan as described in Section II. 9 of the permit needs to be developed and made available
to all personnel responding to emergencies within the collection system. A copy should
also be submitted to the Mooresville Regional Office.
Pump Stations
Five pump stations were inspected. General housekeeping was acceptable at the
stations. The pump stations that have pump -run time counters, information related to
run-time should be recorded on the log sheets to help determine capacity and I/I
concerns. All pump stations are inspected weekly since the pump stations have
telemetry. The collection system for the Town of Taylorsville consists of lines and pump
stations owned by both Alexander County and the Department of Correction. Note in the
inspection report additional information onNorthwoods Pump Station rehab project and
pump operation.
Records
Records of all spills and complaints need to be maintained for tracking trouble
spots in the collection system. A map of the collection system is to be completed in the
next several years. There was nothing available to review during the inspection. The

Page 3
Taylorsville
April —2009
multiple interconnects between the various owners of the systems need to be identified on
the map. The Town of Taylorsville can still operate and maintain the system as one with
appropriate contracts in place to address these concerns. If this agreement changes then
the systems will need to be separated by individual ownership.
Monitoring and Reporting Requirements
An annual collection system report listing spills and general information about the
system is to be prepared each year and made available to customers. Please provide a
copy of the last annual report for the system with your response to this letter. This will
be added to our files and entered in BIMS. This report can cover either a fiscal year or
calendar year period of time.
Lines / Right -of —Ways/ Aerial Lines
All lines and right-of-ways that were visited were accessible, free of sinkholes,
and showed no evidence of leakage. Only one high priority lines is listed in the permit,
additional lines were identified during the inspection and need to be added. These are to
be inspected at a minimum twice a year and documentation of these inspections needs to
be available.
If you have any questions concerning this inspection report or noted record
keeping requirements, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sifford or me at
[phone].

CIP Comments
CIP discusses the issues in Northwood Park collection system to replace 3,000 ft of force main and rehab
30 manholes and 10,000 linear feet of sewer line to reduce 1/1 in the system. Funding for this project may
need to be evaluated for projected costs. The CIP needs to cover at a minimum three years projected plans.

Subject: Collection System Permits
Wastewater Collection System
Permit No. WQCS00135
Taylorsville'—Alexander County
Upon inspection of the Taylorsville Collection System it was determined that part
of the collection system (i.e. lines and pump stations) is owned by other entities. Each of
the other permittees has. a combined flow of over 200,000 gpd as permitted by design.
Therefore, each collection system could be permitted individually. This would require
classification and designation of operators and back-up operators for each system. A
separate record keeping system would have to be implemented by each owner, and the'
required line cleaning of each system would have to be met each year.
At this time the receiver of the flow is contracted to operate the collection system
and a formal agreement is in place to cover responsibility of the sewer extension permit
for these sections of the system. However, since each system is large enough to
constitute their own individual operating permit this can be done, but in the best interest
of the state resources, and those of the county and Town of Taylorsville this will remain
as one combined system at this time. At the time of permit renewal for WQCS00135 this
may be discussed. further as to how to handle these satellite systems.

Each party needs to realize that enforcement actions will be taken against the
permitted owner of record and not the contracted owner should circumstances arise due
to overflows or operational violations. All contracts should be reviewed carefully and
should clearly define responsibility and ownership.

Subject: Permit No. WQCS00135
Town of Taylorsville
Wastewater Collection System
Alexander County
Dear Mr. Robinette:
In accordance with your application received on April 22, 2003, as well as the additional information
received on July 14, 2003, we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQCS00135, dated November 7, 2003, to the
Town of Taylorsville for the operation and maintenance of the subject wastewater collection system.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 31, 2008. This permit shall be
subject to the conditions and limitations specified herein. It is your responsibility to thoroughly review this
permit. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting requirements in this permit, and any
compliance schedules shown in bold.
This comprehensive collection system permit includes conditions which cover all of the Spill Response
and Operation and Maintenance Evaluation Factors in the Updated Collection System Enforcement Guidance
issued June 14, 1999. Therefore, this permit supercedes the 1999 point system used to determine enforcement
options for sanitary sewer overflows. The evaluation of enforcement options after a sanitary sewer overflow will
be determined considering the criteria listed in condition I(2)(a) and I(2)(b) of the permit. Compliance with all
conditions of the permit as well as all statutes and regulations pertaining to the collection system must be
maintained or appropriate enforcement actions may be taken as noted in Condition VI(3).
A reportable SSO is a SSO greater than 1,000 gallons to the ground or a SSO of any amount that reaches
surface water (including through ditches, storm drains, etc.) Below is the procedure to use for reporting SSOs to
the Division:
a) Report by telephone to a person (not facsimile or voicemail) to your regional DWQ office during
regular business hours (Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM) as soon as possible, but in no case more
than 24 hours after the SSO is known or discovered. To report outside of regular business hours,
call [phone].
b) Follow up the verbal report by sepding a completed written report on the most current Division
approved form within five days.

r
To provide a uniform method for all systems covered under this permit and to provide useful and
consistent information pertaining to SSOs, a new spill reporting form has been developed (October 2003). Form
CS-SSO consists of two parts. Part I serves to provide to the Division the required information that has always
been necessary. Part 11 serves as an area to provide a justification for the spill, as optional under Condition 1(2) of
your permit. Form CS-SSO can be downloaded from littp:Hh2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndcu/ from the Collection Systems
area.
An. NOV, civil penalty, and/or a moratorium on the addition of waste to the system may be issued if
adequate justification ' for an SSO is NOT submitted to the regional office. In order to submit a claim for
justification of an SSO, you must use the Form CS-SSO with additional documentation as necessary. DWQ staff
will review the justification claim and determine if enforcement action is appropriate. Please be advised that the
information needed to justify a spill is very comprehensive. Begin using this form immediately to report SSOs
from the collection system. Continue to use our old form for reporting bypasses at the wastewater treatment plant
until further notice. The time frame for submittal of both Part I and Part II, if pertinent, is five days.
Failure to abide by the conditions in this permit may subject the Permittee to enforcement action. If any
parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to request an
adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty days following the receipt of this permit. This request
inust 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, NC 27699-6714. Unless
such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.

NORTH CAROLINA
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION
DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
RALEIGH
SYSTEM -WIDE WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM PERMIT
In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as amended,
and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
Town of Taylorsville
Alexander County
FOR THE
operation and maintenance of a wastewater collection system consisting of, at the time of permit issuance,
approximately 23 miles of gravity sewer, approximately seven miles of force main, 17 duplex pump stations, and
all associated piping, valves, and appurtenances required to make a complete and operational wastewater
collection system to serve the town, and any deemed permitted satellite communities, pursuant to the application
received on April 22, 2003 and in conformity with the documents referenced therein and other supporting data
subsequently filed and approved by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and considered a part
of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 31, 2008, and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the Town of Taylorsville
Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0026271) prior to being disposed into the receiving stream. This
collection system permit will be referenced upon renewal or modification of your NPDES permit(s).
2. The wastewater collection system shall be effectively managed, maintained and operated at all times
so that there is no discharge to land or surface waters, nor any contamination of groundwater. In the
event that the wastewater collection system fails to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of
nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective actions, including actions that may
be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division), such as the construction of additional or
replacement sewer lines and/or equipment.
The Director may take enforcement action against the Permittee for sanitary sewer system discharges
that must be reported to the Division as stipulated in Condition IV(2). This includes discharges that
were caused by severe natural conditions or exceptional events unless the Permittee demonstrates
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:
10/03

a. The discharge was caused by severe natural conditions; there were no feasible alternatives to the
discharge, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastewater,
reduction of inflow and infiltration, use of adequate back-up equipment, or an increase in the
capacity of the system. This provision is not satisfied if, in the exercise of reasonable engineering
judgment, the Permittee should have installed auxiliary or additional collection system
components, wastewater retention or treatment facilities, adequate back-up equipment or should
have reduced inflow and infiltration; or
b. the discharge was exceptional, unintentional, temporary and caused by factors beyond the
reasonable control of the Permittee; the discharge could not have been prevented by the exercise of
reasonable control, such as proper management, operation and maintenance; adequate treatment
facilities or collection system facilities or components (e.g., adequately enlarging treatment or
collection facilities to accommodate growth or adequately controlling and preventing infiltration
and inflow); preventive maintenance; or installation of adequate back-up equipment;
The Permittee can submit a claim to the Division Regional Office that the discharge meets the criteria
of this condition. The Permittee has the option of submitting this claim along with the spill report
required by Condition IV(2) (i.e., within five days) in order to be considered for immunity from
enforcement action. Form CS-SSO Part II, or most current Division approved form, shall be used for
any claims. The Permittee has the burden of proof that the above criteria have been met.
The Permittee shall have the legal authority to implement the requirements of Condition I(4); require
new sewers be properly constructed; ensure proper inspection and testing of sewers and laterals; and
address flows from satellite systems.
4. The Permittee shall maintain an educational and enforcement program that requires the proper
operation and maintenance of all grease traps and septic tanks connected to the wastewater collection
system. The educational program should target both residential and commercial users.
The Permittee shall implement a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to designate funding for
reinvestment into the wastewater collection system infrastructure. The CIP should address the short-
term needs and long-term "master plan" concepts. The CIP should typically cover a three to five year
period and include a goal statement, description of the project area, description of the existing
facilities, known deficiencies (over a reasonable period) and forecasted future needs. Cost analysis is
integral to the CIP.
6. Existing overflow piping from manholes. and pump stations, excluding piping to approved equalization
structures, known or discovered after permit issuance shall be immediately removed or permanently
capped. Plugged emergency pumping connections are allowable for portable pumping or rerouting
without intentionally bypassing the wastewater treatment facility.
7. The Permittee shall maintain a contingency plan for pump failure at each pump station. If one of the
pumps in a pump station containing multiple pumps fails, the process of repairing or replacing the
pump shall be initiated immediately and the new parts or pump shall be installed as soon as possible.
If the pump in a simplex pump station fails, it shall be replaced immediately.
Each pump station shall be clearly and conspicuously posted with a pump station identifier and an
emergency contact telephone number at which an individual who can initiate or perform emergency
service for the wastewater collection system 24 hours per day, seven days per week can be contacted.
This emergency contact telephone number shall be coupled with instructions for anyone to call if the
visual alarm illuminates, if the audible alarm sounds, or if an emergency is apparent.
9. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 2H
.0219(h)(7).
2 10/03

II.
10. Pump stations that do not employ an automatic polling feature (i.e. routine contact with pump stations
from a central location to check operational status of the communication system) shall have both
audible and visual high water alarms. The alarms shall be weatherproof and placed in a clear and
conspicuous location. Permits issued for the construction of pump stations that included high water
alarms in the description must maintain the alarms even if simple telemetry (i.e. notification of an
alarm condition initiated by the pump station control feature) is installed.
The following pump stations will be upgraded to meet this condition by January 1, 2004:
Mitchell Gold Taylor King
Armoury Fairway Oaks f�(,(�jJ ��/
Goodnights Jay Drive �-00 6-1
McKlellans MHP Ellendale School
Milsaps Prison
Macedonia Northwood Park
Fairgrounds Commercial Park
The Mooresville Regional Office, Division of Water Quality shall be notified when this
compliance schedule is met.
11. For all newly constructed, modified and rehabilitated pump stations, equipment and components
located within the pump station shall be corrosion -resistant and components in close proximity of the
pump station shall be sealed within a corrosion -resistant coating or encasement.
12. All construction and rehabilitation of the wastewater collection system (i.e., permitted or deemed
permitted) shall be scheduled to minimize the interruption of service by the existing utilities.
Construction and rehabilitation shall not result in the violation of Condition I.2. of this permit.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
Upon classification of the collection system by the Water Pollution Control System Operators
Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate and employ a certified operator
to be in responsible charge (ORC) and one or more certified operator(s) to be back-up ORC(s) of the
facilities in accordance with 15A NCAC 8G .0201. The ORC shall visit the system within 24 hours of
knowledge of a bypass, spill, or overflow of wastewater from the system, unless visited by the Back -
Up ORC, and shall comply with all other conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0204.
2. The Permittee shall develop and maintain a schedule for reviewing all inspection, maintenance,
operational and complaint logs. Once recurring problems are identified in the wastewater collection
system because of the review process, the Permittee shall establish a plan for addressing the
problem(s) if they can not be resolved in a short time period. The Permittee shall define and adhere to
a review period.
3. The Permittee shall develop and maintain a schedule for testing emergency and standby equipment.
4. The Permittee shall develop and conduct a routine pump station inspection and maintenance program,
which shall include, but not be limited to, the following maintenance activities:
a. Cleaning and removing debris from the pump station structure, outside perimeter, and wet well;

with the largest pump out of service), at least one fully operational spare pump capable of pumping
peak flow shall be maintained on hand.
6. The Permittee shall maintain on hand at least two percent of the number of pumps installed, but no
less than two pumps, that discharge to a pressure sewer and serve a single building, unless the
Permittee has the ability to purchase and install a replacement pump within 24 hours of first
knowledge of the simplex pump failure or within the storage capacity provided in any sewer line
extension permit.
7. Rights -of -way and/or easements shall be properly maintained to allow accessibility to the wastewater
collection system.
8. The Permittee shall assess cleaning needs and develop and maintain a program for appropriately
cleaning, whether by hydraulic or mechanical methods, all sewer lines. At least 10 percent of the
wastewater collection system, selected at the discretion of the ORC, shall be cleaned each year.
Preventative cleaning is not required for sewer lines less than five years old unless inspection
otherwise reveals a necessity or as required by a sewer line extension permit.
Adequate measures shall be taken to contain and properly dispose of Sanitary Sewer Overflows
(SSOs) and spills. The Permittee shall maintain a Response Action Plan that addresses the following
minimum items:
a. Contact telephone numbers for 24-hour response, including weekends and holidays;
b. Response time;
c. Equipment list and spare parts inventory;

The Town of Taylorsville does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin,
sex, religion, age or disability in employment or the provision of services.

Below I have listed the items that may be of specific note to the Town. These items do'not need to be submitted but
should be in place prior to receiving the permit. Please inform me if you have any questions or comments regarding
any of these items:
Please note that the permit will require a written contingency plan to be developed for each pump
station in case of pump failure. These plans should be available to staff at all times and should clearly
identify the steps they are to take in case of a pump failure.
2. I've enclosed an outline of all inspections, logs and record keeping that will be required in the permit.
There may be record -keeping that will have to be added to the Town's existing program and some
existing logs and/or inspections may need to be modified to include all items to be inspected/tested as

project proposes to replace the pumps, control panel, and piping in the NurLh ow odd
Ste pro =o s
The project will greatly reduce the infiltration and inflow which places an undue
burden on the collection and treatment system.
II. Basis of Design
The lines to be replaced were identified by flow analysis and smoke testing which
already been conducted by the Town. The areas to be smoked and videoed were
identified by visual inspection of the flows during rain events.
Visual inspection of the pumping stations along with maintenance records show
the need for a retrofit.

III. Existing Facilities
The Town has recently completed a major upgrade of their Wastewater Treatment
Plant giving them excellent treatment capabilities for the next twenty years. The major
problems are found in their collection system and particularly the Northwood Park and
Goodnite pumping stations. These pumping stations have been in service approximately
thirty years.
IV. Area to be Serviced
The rehabilitation projects are found in all sections of Town but are particularly
concentrated in the Northeast section.
V. Easements and Rights of Way
All the lines are located in existing Town Rights -of -Way.
VI. Permits
Approval of Plans and Specifications by NCDENR approved Erosion Control
Plan.

No changes will be made to the existing topography due to this project. Reconstruction
shall take place in existing utility right-of-way or street right-of-way. These areas shall
be restored to there previous condition. In the natural areas that must be disturbed, the
minimum necessary easement required will be 25 feet. Construction shall be kept to a
minimum necessary to install and maintain the sanitary sewer collection line. The
easement areas shall be replanted with grasses common to the area.
B. Wetlands
There are no wetlands located in the project area.
C. Prime or Unique Agricultural Lands
No prime or unique agricultural lands will be adversely effected by this project.
D. Public Lands
No public lands will be effected by this project.
E. Scenic and Recreational Lands
No scenic or recreational lands will be effected by this project.
F. Areas of Archeological or Historic Value
No areas of archeological or historical value will be effected by this project.
G. Air Quality
This project will have no effect on air quality upon completion. Proper dust controls will
be implemented during the construction process.
H. Ground Water Quality
This project will have no direct effect on ground water quality upon completion. The
ground water could be indirectly improved by the elimination of exfiltration from the
existing system.

I. Nuisance Controls
The project is located in an urbanized area with the associated pre-existing noises and
odors. Any additional noise or odor will be minimal and temporary.
J. Water Supplies
No water supplies will be adversely effected by this project.
K. Fish Habitats
No fish habitats will be adversely effected by this project.
L. Wildlife and Wildlife Habitats
No wildlife habitats will be adversely effected by this project.
M. Introduction of Toxic Substances
No new flows will be introduced by this project. All existing flow is considered to be
domestic strength wastewater any future industrial wastewater shall be required to
implement industrial pre-treatment to meet the domestic strength requirements prior to
the discharge into the collection system.
N. Receiving Waters
This rehabilitation of the collection system will reduce infiltration and inflow to a 0.8
MGD treatment facility which has an existing NPDES permit to discharge into the
Stirewalt Creek. The plant is designed to treat discharge to meet or exceed the limits of
that permit and the flow changes will not adversely effect the discharge from that facility.
O. Indirect Measures
The quality of receiving water should be improved by the elimination of failing treatment
system.

Dear Mr. Robinette:
LQUO 2 0 2003
Subject: Application No. WQCS00135
Additional Information Request
Wastewater Collection System',; '04 �1
Alexander County
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has conducted a preliminary review of the subject permit application package.
Below I have listed the items that must be submitted in response to this letter. Please submit these items in duplicate
to my attention at the address below by July 19, 2003. I will then discuss other issues that are of importance
regarding the collection system permit, but do not require a written response. Finally, I am also attaching a template
of the wastewater collection system permit. It is essential that you and staff members review this document
carefully and make note of changes to your current program that will need to be made, as well as making note of
any conditions not already discussed in this letter that will be problematic for the Town.
If after reviewing this letter and the enclosed template permit, you and/or your staff would like to discuss the
permitting process or the permit with the Division of Water Quality, I would be very happy to schedule a time to
come to Taylorsville for a meeting.
The additional information to be submitted are itemized below:
Please review Condition 1.2 of the permit very carefully. If there are any collection lines that are
currently identified as having inadequate capacity and likely to have Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs)
until rehabilitated or replaced, please submit that list for temporary exemption to this Condition. With
the list must be submitted documentation (evaluations by consultants, spill reports etc.) to show how it
was determined that the specific section of collection line has capacity inadequacies (you may refer to
documents already submitted with your application). You must also provide a scheduled date for
when each line will be rehabilitated or replaced to solve the current problem. The scheduled dates
should be reasonable and you should be able to provide justification for each date.
Per permit condition I.10, each pump station MUST have BOTH audible and visual alarms present and
working, UNLESS there is a telemetry SCADA system with automatic poling for signal at the pump
station. Pump stations without telemetry SCADA systems or visual and audible alarms must
immediately be retrofitted. It appears from your application that the Town has some pump stations
that do not currently meet this requirement. Please provide a list of those pump stations and dates
when the necessary alarms can be installed.
The locations of all high priority lines will be referenced in your collection system permit. For this
reason we respectfully request that double check the list for completeness. Please note the Division's
definition of a high priority line when developing this list: Any aerial line, sub -waterway crossing,
line contacting surface waters, siphon, line positioned parallel to streambanks that are subject to
eroding in such a manner that may threaten the sewer line.
15A NCAC 2H .0206(b) requires an authorized individual to sign the permit application form. In the
case of a municipal, state or other public entity, a signature is required by either a principal executive
officer, ranking elected official, or other duly authorized employee. Duly authorized employees must
provide proof from the principal executive officer or ranking elected official that they have been
authorized to sign the application. Please have the appropriate person sign the attached page of the
permit application or provide a letter that you are authorized to sign the permit application on behalf of
the Town of Taylorsville.

Below I have listed the items that may be of specific note to the Town. These items do not need to be submitted but
should be in place prior to receiving the permit. Please inform me if you have any questions or comments regarding
any of these items:
1. Please note that the permit will require a written contingency plan to be developed for each pump
station in case of pump failure. These plans should be available to staff at all times and should clearly
identify the steps they are to take in case of a pump failure.
I've enclosed an outline of all inspections, logs and record keeping that will be required in the permit.
There may be record -keeping that will have to be added to the Town's existing program and some
existing logs and/or inspections may need to be modified to include all items to be inspected/tested as
required by the permit.
The Town currently has a map of the collection system. Please note the items required for the map in
condition III.3 of the permit.
As mentioned above, I am attaching a template of the wastewater collection system permit. It is essential that your
staff review this document carefully again and make note of any conditions not already discussed in this letter that
will be problematic for the Town of Taylorsville. Please submit a list of any conditions not already discussed with
your response to the letter.
Please be aware that you are responsible for meeting all requirements set forth in North Carolina rules and
regulations. Any oversights that occurred in the review of the subject application package are still the responsibility
of the applicant. In addition, any omissions made in responding to the above items may result in future requests for
additional information.
Please reference the subject application number when providing the requested information. Two copies of all
revised and/or additional documentation should be submitted to my attention at the address above. Please note that
failure to provide this additional information on or before the above requested date may result in your permit being
issued without further discussion.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone], extension
502 or [e-mail]. Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear Mr. Robinette:
September 8, 2008 SEP 1 0 2008
NIA DENR MRO
DA10-Surface Wcfor Protection
Subject: Permit No. WQCS00135 (Renewal)
Town of Taylorsville
Collection System
Alexander County
In accordance with your application received on May 22, 2008, we are forwarding herewith Permit No.
WQCS00135, dated September 8, 2008, to The Town of Taylorsville for the operation and maintenance
of the subject wastewater collection system.
This permit shall be effective from the effective date of November 1, 2008 until .October 31, 2013. This
permit shall be subject to the conditions and limitations specified herein. It is your responsibility to
thoroughly review this permit. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting
requirements in this permit and any compliance schedules shown in bold.
For purposes of permitting, the collection system is considered to be any existing or newly installed .
system extension up to the wastewater treatment facility property or point of connection with a
separately owned sewer system. The collection system is considered all gravity lines, pump stations,
force mains, low pressure sewer systems, STEP systems, vacuum systems, etc. and associated piping,
valves and appurtenances that help to collect, manage and transport wastewater to a wastewater
treatment plant under the Permittee's ownership or maintained and operated by the Permittee through
a perpetual legal agreement. Satellite_ systems are systems tributary to the Permittee's collection system
but those collection systems are not owned or maintained by the Permittee. The system description
provided on Page 1 of this permit is meant to provide a general idea about the size of the system and
may not be all inclusive of the collection system at the time of permit issuance or afterward.
A release of wastewater from the wastewater collection system is referred to herein as a Sanitary Sewer
Overflow (SSO). The evaluation of enforcement options after a SSO will be determined considering the
criteria listed in condition 1(2) (a) and 1(2) (b) of the permit and all other relevant information available or
requested of the Permittee. Compliance with all conditions of the permit as well as all statutes and
regulations pertaining to the collection system must be maintained or appropriate enforcement actions
may be taken as noted in Condition VI(2).
A reportable SSO is a SSO greater than 1,000 gallons to the ground or a SSO of any amount that reaches
surface water (including through ditches, storm drains, etc.) Below is the procedure to use for reporting
SSOs to the Division:
1. Report by telephone to a Division of Water Quality staff member (not facsimile or voicernail) at
your regional DWQ office during regular business hours (Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM) as soon

as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours after the SSO is known or discovered. To report
outside of regular business hours, call [phone].
2. Follow up the verbal report by sending a completed written report on the most current Division
approved form within five days.
To provide a uniform method for all systems covered under this permit and to provide useful and
consistent information pertaining to SSOs, a new spill reporting form has been developed (October
2003). Form CS-SSO consists of two parts. Part I serves to provide to the Division the required information
that has always been necessary. Part II serves as an area to provide a justification for the spill, as
optional under Condition 1(2) of your permit. Form CS-SSO can be downloaded from
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/peres/Collection%20Systems/ColIectionSystemsHome.htmI from the SSO
r 'Reporting area.
An NOV, civil penalty, and/or a moratorium on the addition of waste to the system may be issued if
adequate justification for an SSO is NOT submitted to the regional office. In order to submit a claim for
justification of an -SSO, you must use the Form CS-SSO with additional documentation as necessary.
DWQ staff will review the justification claim and determine if enforcement action is appropriate. Please
be advised that the information needed to justify a spill is very comprehensive. Begin using this form
immediately to report SSOs from the collection system. Continue to use our old form for reporting
bypasses at the wastewater treatment plant until further notice. The time frame for submittal of both
Part I and Part II, if pertinent, is five days.
Failure to abide by the conditions in this permit may subject the Permittee to enforcement action. If any
parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty days following the receipt of this
permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150E of the North
Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.
If you have questions regarding compliance contact your regional office or Jeff Poupart of the
.Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit of the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning this permit, please contact
Thomas Ascenzo in the Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit at (919) 807-
6313.

amended., and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED:TO
Town of. Taylorsville
Alexander County
FOR THE
operation and maintenance of a wastewater, collection system -consisting of, at the time of permit
issuance;. approximately 23 miles.of gravity'sewer, approximately, approximately 7 miles of force main,
2 simplex pump stations that discharge to a pressure sewer, 20 duplex pump stations, and all
associated piping, valves, and appurtenances required to make a complete and operational
wastewater collection system to serve the Town of Taylorsville and any deemed permitted satellite
communities, pursuant to the application received on May 22, 2008, and in conformity with the
documents referenced therein and other supporting data, subsequently filed and approved by the
Department:of Environment and Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
This permitshall be effective from November 1, 2008, until October 31, 2013, and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

This -collection system permit will be referenced upon renewal or modification of your NPDES
permit(s).

2.'' The wastewater collection system shall be effectively managed, maintained and operated at all
times so that there is no SSO to land or surface waters, nor any contamination of groundwater. In
the event that the wastewater collection system fails to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective actions, including
actions that may be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division), such as the construction
of additional or replacement sewer lines and/or equipment.
The Director may take enforcement action against the Permittee for SSOs that must be reported
to the Division as stipulated in Condition IV(2). This includes SSOs that were caused by severe
natural conditions or exceptional events unless the Permittee demonstrates through properly,
signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:
a) The SSO was caused by severe natural conditions; there were no feasible alternatives to
the SSO, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated
wastewater, reduction of inflow and infiltration, use of adequate back-up equipment, or
an increase in the capacity of the system. This provision is not satisfied if, in the exercise -
of reasonable engineering judgment, the Permittee should have installed auxiliary or
additional collection systemcomponents, wastewater retention or treatment facilities,
adequate back-up equipment or should have reduced inflow and infiltration; or
�b) the SSO was exceptional, unintentional, temporary and caused by factors beyond the
reasonable control of the Permittee; the SSO could not have been prevented by the,
exercise of reasonable control, such as proper management, operation and
maintenance; adequate treatment facilities or collection system facilities or components
(e.g., adequately enlarging treatment or collection facilities to accommodate growth or
adequately controlling and preventing infiltration and inflow); preventive maintenance;
or installation of adequate back-up equipment;
The Permittee can submit a claim to the Division Regional Office that the SSO meets the. criteria
of this condition. The Permittee has the option of submitting this claim along with the spill report
required by Condition IV(2) (i.e., within five days) in order to be considered for immunity from
enforcement action. Form CS-SSO Part 11, or most current Division approved form, shall be used,
for.any claims. The Permittee has the burden of proof that the above criteria have been met.
3. The Permittee shall establish by ordinance its legal authority to require new sewers be properly
constructed; to ensure proper inspection and testing of sewer mains and service laterals; to
address flows from satellite systems and to take enforcement action as required by Condition
1(4)
4. ' The Permittee shall develop and implement an educational fats, oils and grease program that

Collection System:
Northwood Pump Station:
page 1 n n
Replace approx. 3,000 feet of existing 6 inch force main with new 6 inch pipe.
This is the discharge line from Northwood Park Pump Station. This is the Town's
first pump station and is about 50 years old, the pump station itself was rehabbed
three years ago, but not the force main.
Option 1: We could follow the existing line that runs along some
of Northwood Park as shown on attached diagram. After this line
leaves the street after running approx. 1,000 feet the line runs another
1,000 feet through woods and a deep ravine and then north on Uh street nw
to existing manhole on west main
Option 2: We could follow.existing line to 5th ave nw, turn west on
5`h and then turn south on 6'h street nw and then the remaining distance
to existing manhole on west main. This route would be about 500 feet
more than option 1.
Rehabilitate some 30 manholes and 10,000 LF of 8 inch sewer line, mostly on north side
of Town, we have smoked tested these areas and we have a lot of I&I. These are the lines
and manholes that lead to Northwood Park pump station (our oldest part of the collection
system)
6`h Street NW:
Replace existing 2 inch water with new 6 inch water line, this replacement
would also loop that section from intersection of West Main to the sharpe curve
on 6`h Street NW where the existing 6 inch water line ends
Total length of new 6 inch water line would be contain approx. 2,300 feet of
line, approx. 15 water reconnects and at least three valves
Cole Cambell Road water loop (six inch to replace ext. 2 inch water line and loop)
Approx. 1,200 feet on new six inch water line plus reconnects)
Hammer Road , East Main Ave. ,Marsh Road (Series of small water lines to be replace
looped or upgraded plus reconnects)

Additional Information Request
Wastewater Collection System
Alexander County
Dear Mr. Robinette:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has conducted a preliminary review of the subject permit application package.
Below I have listed the items that must be submitted in response to this letter. Please submit these items in duplicate
to my attention at the address below by July 19, 2003. I will then discuss other issues that are of importance
regarding the collection system permit, but do not require a written response. Finally, I am also attaching a template
of the wastewater collection system permit. It is essential that you and staff members review this document
carefully and make note of changes to your current program that will need to be made, as well as making note of
any conditions not already discussed in this letter that will be problematic for the Town.
If after reviewing this letter and the enclosed template permit, you and/or your staff would like to discuss the
permitting process or the permit with the Division of Water Quality, I would be very happy to schedule a time to
come to Taylorsville for a meeting.
The additional information to be submitted are itemized below:
Please review Condition 1.2 of the permit very carefully. If there are any collection lines that are
currently identified as having inadequate capacity and likely to have Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs)
until rehabilitated or replaced, please submit that list for temporary exemption to this Condition. With
the list must be submitted documentation (evaluations by consultants, spill reports etc.) to show how it
was determined that the specific section of collection line has capacity inadequacies (you may refer to
documents already submitted with your application). You must also provide a scheduled date for
when each line will be rehabilitated or replaced to solve the current problem. The scheduled dates
should be reasonable and you should be able to provide justification for each date.
2. Per permit condition I.10, each pump station MUST have BOTH audible and visual alarms present and
working, UNLESS there is a telemetry SCADA system with automatic poling for signal at the pomp
station. Pump stations without telemetry SCADA systems or visual and audible alarms must
immediately be retrofitted. It appears from your application that the Town has some ptnnp stations
that do not currently meet this requirement. your
provide a list of those pump stations and dates
when the necessary alarms can be installed.
3. The locations of all high priority lines will be referenced in your collection system permit. For this
reason we respectfully request that double check the list for completeness. Please note the Division's
definition of a high priority line when developing this list:Any aerial line, sub -waterway crossing,
line contacting surface waters, siphon, line positioned parallel to streambanks that are subject to
eroding in such a manner that may threaten the sewer line.
4. 15A NCAC 2H .0206(b) requires an authorized individual to sign the permit application form. In the
case of a municipal, state or other public entity, a signature is required by either a principal executive
officer, ranking elected official, or other duly authorized employee. Duly authorized employees must
provide proof from the principal executive officer or ranking elected official that they have been
authorized to sign the application. Please have the appropriate person sign the attached page of the
permit application or provide a letter that you are authorized to sign the permit application on behalf of
the Town of Taylorsville.

Below I have listed the items that may be of specific note to the Town. These items do not need to be submitted but
should be in place prior to receiving the permit. Please inform me if you have any questions or comments regarding
any of these items:
Please note that the permit will require a written contingency plan to be developed for each pump
station in case of pump failure. These plans should be available to staff at all times and should clearly
identify the steps they are to take in case of a pump failure.
2. I've enclosed an outline of all inspections, logs and record keeping that will be required in the permit.
There may be record -keeping that will have to be added to the Town's existing program and some
existing logs and/or inspections may need to be modified to include all items to be inspected/tested as
required by the permit.
The Town currently has a map of the collection system. Please note the items required for the map in
condition III.3 of the permit.
As mentioned above, I am attaching a template of the wastewater collection system permit. It is essential that your
staff review this document carefully again and make note of any conditions not already discussed in this letter that
will be problematic for the Town of Taylorsville. Please submit a list of any conditions not already discussed with
your response to the letter.
Please be aware that you are responsible for meeting all requirements set forth in North Carolina rules and
regulations. Any oversights that occurred in the review of the subject application package are still the responsibility
of the applicant. In addition, any omissions made in responding to the above items may result in future requests for
additional information.
Please reference the subject application number when providing the requested information. Two copies of all
revised and/or additional documentation should be submitted to my attention at the address above. Please note that
failure to provide this additional information on or before the above requested date may result in your permit being
issued without further discussion.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone], extension
502 or [e-mail]. Thank you for your cooperation.
