Permit WQCS00258 Owner - Facility: Town of Troutman Inspection Date: 11/08/2017 Inspection Type : Collection System Inspect Non Sampling Reason for visit: Routine Comment: There was a good bit of debris in this pump station. The operator said it was to be pumped out soon. The high water float cable was tied off down in the wet well, and the operator didn't have a hook to trip it at the time, so the float couldn't be tested. The operator simulated a high water situation to test the alarms. The audible and visual alarms worked, but a call from the telemetry system was never received. In a phone conversation on 11/14/2017 with Todd Hardy, he said that his phone was showing a week signal and that the call never came through, but that the telemetry system did call his phone that night in regard to a power outage at the pump station (he had a better signal that night). This may need to be looked into as possible issue. The 24-hour notification sign did not include a pump station identifier. This needs to be added.

ATTEST: // Kimberly H. tvis, Town Clerk Town of Troutman , 2013 at Troutman, Iredell County, North Elbert H. Richardson, Mayor 19 Town of Troutman Capital Improvement Plan 2014-2024 Wastewater Collection System Goals Town of Troutman's primary goal for its wastewater collection system is to provide its citizens with high quality service while charging reasonable fees. This includes ensuring that collection, treatment and discharge of wastewater protects public and environmental health and meets State and Federal regulations. Description of System Town of Troutman owns and operates a wastewater collection system which serves the Town's 2,179 residents and some of the surrounding area. The Town has approximately 1,055 sewer customers. The wastewater collection system consists of a 33-mile network of 8" and 15" gravity collection lines and 13 miles of force main as well as fourteen (14) pump stations which pump most of Troutman's wastewater to the IL Creek Pump Station, which in turn pumps it to Statesville's Third Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant. In addition, through an interlocal agreement with Town of Mooresville, a smaller percentage of wastewater, essentially everything east of 1-77 is pumped or flows to Mooresville. The agreement allows for Troutman to purchase and utilize additional capacity in the future. Purpose The Capital Improvement Plan supports the objectives of the Town's leadership and citizens by guiding construction, sizing, timing, and location of wastewater collection facilities. The CIP includes a Ten -Year Needs Assessment and Five -Year Capital Budget. The Ten -Year Needs Assessment prioritizes necessary capital projects for the next ten years. The Five -Year Capital Budget details the expenditures and funding sources for those capital projects prioritized for the next five years. Because the Town's goals and resources are constantly changing the CIP is designed to be re-evaluated and projects reprioritized annually. Definitions A CIP is a multi, -year flexible plan:that encompasses goals and objectives pertaining to capital improvements for the Town of Troutman. This plan includes the development, repair, replacement and acquisition of physical sewer infrastructure facilities. A capital project provides long term benefit to the Town and -may be recurring or nonrecurring (though it may be paid for or impleniented in stages over a period of years). To be included in the Capital Budget,:a project must meet ONE:of the following requirements: • It is a new construction, expansion, renovation or replacement project for an existing facility or facilities. The project must have a total cost of at least $10,000 over the life of the project. Project costs can include the cost of land, engineering, architectural planning, and contract services needed to complete the project. - OR- • It is a purchase of major equipment (asset) costing $10,000 or more. - OR ■ It is a major maintenance or rehabilitation project for existing facilities with a cost of $10,000 or more and an economic life of at Ieast.10 years.

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 an SSO will be determined considering the criteria listed in condition I(3)(a) and I(3)(b) of the permit and all other relevant 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

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 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.) Below is the procedure to use for reporting SSOs to the Division: 1. Report by telephone to a Division of Water Quality (DWQ) staff member (not email, facsimile, or voicemail) 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 (800) 858-0368. 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, please utilize form CS-SSO consisting 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 I(3) of your permit. Form CS-SSO can be downloaded from the SSO Reporting area at http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/swp/ps/cs/ssoreport. 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 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 r 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 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.

This permit shall be effective from September 1st, 2013 until August 31st, 2021, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 1. The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the City of Statesville Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0020591) and the Town of Mooresville Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0026832) prior to being disposed into the respective receiving streams. 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. 3. 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 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. 4. 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(5). 5. 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. 6. 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. 7. 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. 8. 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. 9. 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 becoupled with instructions that the emergency contact should becalled if the visual alarm illuminates, if the audible alarm sounds, or if an emergency is apparent. 10. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 02T .305(h)(4). 11. 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. 12. 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. 13. 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. 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. 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). 3. The Permittee shall develop and adhere to a schedule for testing emergency and standby equipment. 4. The Permittee shall develop and implement 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; 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 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 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. 8. The Permittee shall assess cleaning needs, and develop and implement 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 the need for cleaning or cleaning is required by a sewer line extension permit. 9. Adequate measures shall be taken to contain and properly dispose of materials associated with SSOs. The Permittee shall maintain a Response Action Plan that addresses the following minimum items: a. Contact phone numbers for 24-hour response, including weekends and holidays; b. Response time; c. Equipment list and spare parts inventory; d. Access to cleaning equipment; e. Access to construction crews, contractors and/or engineers; f. Source(s) of emergency funds; g. Site sanitation and clean up materials; and h. Post-SSO assessment. 10. The Permittee, or their authorized representative, shall conduct an on -site evaluation for all SSOs as soon as possible, but no more than two hours after first knowledge of the SSO. 11. In the event of an SSO or blockage within the wastewater collection system, the_ Permittee shall restore the system operation, remove visible solids and paper, sanitize any ground area and restore the surroundings. III. RECORDS 1. Records shall be maintained to document compliance with Conditions 1(5), 11(2) - 11(4), 11(7) - 11(8), IV(3) and V(1) -V(4). Records shall be kept on file for a minimum of three years. 2. The Permittee shall maintain adequate records pertaining to SSOs, and complaints for a minimum of three years. These records shall include, but are not limited to, the following information: a. Date of SSO or complaint; b. Volume of wastewater released as a result of the SSO and/or nature of complaint; c. Location of the SSO and/or complaint; d. Estimated duration of the SSO; e. Individual from the Division who was informed about the SSO and/or complaint, when applicable; f. Final destination of the SSO; g. Corrective actions; h. Known environmental/human health impacts resulting from the SSO; and i. How the SSO was discovered. 3. The Permittee shall maintain an up-to-date, accurate, comprehensive map of its wastewater collection system that also notes the locations where other wastewater collection systems become tributary. If a comprehensive map of the collection system has not been established, a rough sketch shall be drawn. The Permittee shall map approximately 10 percent of its existing collection system each year for the next ten years beginning at the original permit issuance date, or until complete, whichever is sooner. The comprehensive map shall include, but is not limited to: pipe size, pipe material, pipe location, flow direction, approximate pipe age, number of active service taps, and each pump station identification, location and capacity. 4. The Permittee shall maintain records of all of the modifications and extensions to the collection system permitted herein. The Permittee shall maintain a copy of the construction record drawings and specifications for modifications/extensions to the wastewater collection system for the life of the modification/extension. Information concerning the extension shall be incorporated into the map of the wastewater collection system within one year of the completion of construction. The system description contained within this permit shall be updated to include this modification/extension information upon permit renewal. IV. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 1. Any monitoring (including, but not necessarily limited to, wastewater flow, groundwater, surface water, soil or plant tissue analyses) deemed necessary by the Division to ensure surface water and groundwater protection will be established, and an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed. 2. The Permittee shall verbally report to a Division of Water Quality staff member at the Mooresville Regional Office, at telephone number 704-663-1699 as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following the occurrence or first knowledge of the occurrence of either of the following: a. Any SSO and/or spill over 1,000 gallons; or b. Any SSO and/or spill, regardless of volume, that reaches surface water. Voice mail messages or faxed information shall not be considered as the initial verbal report. SSOs (and other types of spills) occurring outside normal business hours may also be reported to the Division of Emergency Management at telephone number (800) 858-0368 or. (919) 733-3300. Persons reporting any of the above occurrences shall file a spill report by completing Part I of Form CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved form), within five days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report shall outline the actions taken or proposed to ensure that the problem does not recur. Per Condition 1(3), Part II of Form CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved form) can also be completed to show that the SSO was beyond control. 3. The Permittee shall meet the annual reporting and notification requirements provided in North Carolina General Statute §143-215.1 C. V. INSPECTIONS 1. The Permittee or the Permittee's designee shall inspect the wastewater collection system regularly to reduce the risk of malfunctions and deterioration, operator errors, and other issues that may cause or lead to the release of wastes to the environment, threaten human health or create nuisance conditions. The Permittee shall keep an inspection log or summary including, at a minimum, the date and time of inspection, observations made, and any maintenance, repairs, or corrective actions taken by the Permittee. 2. Pump stations without Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems or telemetry shall be inspected everyday (i.e. 365 days per year). Pump stations equipped with SCADA systems or telemetry shall be inspected at least once per week. 3. A general observation of the entire collection system shall be performed throughout the course of every year. 4. Inspections of all high priority lines (i.e. aerial line, sub -waterway crossing, line contacting surface waters, siphon, line positioned parallel to stream banks that are subject to eroding in such a manner that may threaten the sewer line, or line designated as high -priority in a permit) shall be performed at least once per every six-month period of time. A list of high -priority lines is presented as Attachment A and is hereby incorporated into this permit condition.

The intent of this policy is to ensure compliance with the Town's Sewer Use Ordinance and provide specific standards for oil and grease interceptor's location, type and size, installation, construction, and maintenance. It is the duty of the Town of Troutman's Public Services Department to meet the conditions set forth in its North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issued Collection System permit thereby preventing the excessive introduction of oil & grease into the Town's sewer system and wastewater treatment plant which have the potential for creating hazardous conditions in the collection system, treatment plant inhibitions, increased treatment cost, fines, and other cost for the Town. Food Service Establishments shall provide means of preventing oil & grease discharges to the sewage collection system above Sewer Use Ordinance limits. Where an oil & grease interceptor currently exists or is required by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public Works Department and this ordinance, the owner, leaseholder or operator at his expense shall maintain it for continuous, satisfactory and effective operation. AUTHORITY TOWN OF TROUTMAN SEWER USE ORDINANCE Section 2.3 Prohibited Discharge Standards (c) No user shall contribute or cause to be contributed into the POTW the following pollutants, substances, or wastewater: (2) Solid or viscous substances in amounts which will cause obstruction of the flow in the POTW resulting in interference. (3) Petroleum oil, nonbiodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral oil origin, in amounts that will cause pass through or interference. (14) Fats, oils, or greases of animal or vegetable origin in concentrations greater than one hundred (100) mg/I. Section 2.11 Hauled Wastewater (d) No grease collector nor oily waste shall be hauled to the POTW. AUTHORITY (cont.)

The Town, approval authority and EPA shall have the right to set up on the user's property such devices as are necessary to conduct sampling, inspection, compliance monitoring and/or metering operations. Where a user has security measures in force which would require proper identification and clearance before entry into their premises, the user shall make necessary arrangements with their security guards so that upon presentation of suitable identification, personnel from the Town, approval authority and EPA will be permitted to enter, without delay, for the purposes of performing their specific responsibilities. Denial of the POTW Director's/Superintendent's, approval authority's, or EPA's access to the user's premises shall be a violation of this ordinance. Unreasonable delays may constitute denial of access. DEFINITIONS Control Authority: The Director of Public Works for the TOWN OF TROUTMAN or his designee. Food Service Establishment: Any commercial facility discharging kitchen or food preparation wastewater; including restaurants, motels, hotels, cafeterias, hospitals, schools, bars, delicatessen, meat cutting preparation, bakeries, etc. and any other facility which, it the opinion of the Control Authority, would require a grease trap installation by virtue of it's operation. Grease Interceptor / Grease Trap: A device utilized to effect the separation of grease and oils in wastewater effluent from a Food Service Establishment. Such traps or interceptors may be of the "outdoor" or underground type normally of a 1000-gallon capacity or more, or the "under-the-counter" package units, which are typically less than 100-gallon capacity. For the purpose of this definition, the words "trap" and "interceptor" are used interchangeably. Grease: Grease is defined to include the accumulation of oils, fats, cellulose, starch, proteins, was, or grease, whether emulsified or not, in the Sewer System of the Authority. These are substances that may solidify or become viscous at temperatures between thirty-two (32) degrees Fahrenheit and one hundred fifty (150) degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees — 65 degrees Celsius) 2 DEFINITIONS (cont.) Grease Generating Establishments: Grease generating establishments shall mean all retail food establishments, catering establishments, commercial food preparation facilities, meat processing facilities, and other establishments that may be capable of accumulating and discharging grease in to the sewer system. Interference: A discharge which alone or in conjunction with a discharge or discharges from other sources inhibits and/or disrupts the POTW, its treatment processes and/or its sludge processes, use and/or disposal. Interference shall include, but not be limited to, a discharge which alone or in conjunction with a discharge or discharges from other sources causes, in whole or in part, a violation(s) of the Town's NPDES Permit, Collection System Permit, and/or to the prevention of sewage sludge use or disposal in compliance with any of the following statutory/regulatory provisions or permits issued hereunder, or any more stringent State or local regulation(s): Sec. 405 of the Act (33 U.S.C. 1345), or any criteria, guideline or regulations developed pursuant to the Solid Waste Disposal Act (SWDA)(42 U.S.C. §6901, et seq.), the Clean Air Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Marine Protection Research and Sanctuary Act (MPRSA), or more stringent state criteria ( including those contained in any state sludge management plan prepared to Title IV of the Solid Waste Disposal Act) applicable to the method of disposal or use employed by the POTW. Owner: Owner shall mean individual, person, firm, company, association, society, corporation, or group whose property the building or structure is located or will be constructed. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS AUTHORITY: Chapter 10- Sections 1004.4 of the North Carolina State Building Code, Volume II — Plumbing. "A grease interceptor shall be installed in the waste line leading from sinks, drains or other fixtures in the following establishments when, in the opinion of the plumbing official, a hazard exists: restaurants, hotel kitchens or bars, factory cafeterias or restaurants, clubs, or other uses where grease can be introduced into the drainage system in quantities that can affect line stoppage or hinder sewage disposal." A. All Food Service Establishments shall have grease -handling facilities approved by the Control Authority. Establishments whose grease -handling facilities or methods are not adequately maintained to prevent floatable oils, fat or grease from entering the sewerage system shall be notified in writing of any noncompliance and required to provide a schedule whereby corrections will be accomplished. B. All Food Service Establishments grease -handling facilities shall be subject to review, evaluation, and inspection by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public 3 AUTHORITY (cont.) Works Department representatives during normal working hours. Results of inspections will be made available to facility owner, leaseholder or operator. C. Food Service Establishments receiving two (2) consecutive unsatisfactory evaluations or inspections may be subject to penalties or other corrective actions as provided for in the Sewer Use Ordinance. D. Food Service Establishments who continue to violate the Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance Requirements may be considered grounds for discontinuance of sewer service. E. Food Service Establishments whose operations cause or allow excessive grease to discharge or accumulate in the TOWN OF TROUTMAN collection system may be liable to the town for costs related to Public Works Department service calls for line blockages, line cleanings, line and pump repairs, etc. including all labor, materials, and equipment. Failure to pay all service -related charges may also be grounds for sewer service discontinuance. F. Regularly scheduled maintenance of grease -handling facilities and equipment is required to ensure adequate operation. In the maintaining of these grease interceptors, the owner, lease -holder or operator shall be responsible for the approved removal and disposal of grease by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance guidelines, and shall maintain on -site records of clean -out date, name of clean -out firm, signature of owner/manager, and a receipt from the clean -out firm. Records shall be maintained for a period of three (3) years. G. The Owner shall be responsible for ensuring that no waste or wastewater pumped from the grease interceptor/grease trap is reintroduced back into the interceptor. This is a violation of the Town Sewer Use Ordinance and can result in enforcement action. H. Any Food Service Establishment whose effluent discharge to the sewerage system is determined by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN to cause interference in the conveyance or operation of the sewerage system may be required to sample its grease trap discharge and have it analyzed for oil and grease at the expense of the owner, lease -holder or operator. Results of such analyses shall be reported to the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public Works Department. I. All grease traps/interceptors shall be designed to have a minimum 24-minute detention time and installed to allow for complete access for inspection and maintenance of the inner chamber(s) and viewing and sampling of effluent wastewater discharged to the sewer. 4 J. Food Service Establishments shall adopt procedures for handling sources of floatable oils, fat or grease originating within their facility. A notice shall be permanently posted at a prominent place in the facility -advising employees of the procedures to be followed. CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS A. New Facilities All new Food Service Establishments shall be required to install a grease interceptor, according to the Control Authority guidelines. Grease interceptors shall be adequately sized, with no interceptor less than 1,000 gallons total capacity unless otherwise approved by the Control Authority. The following information must be supplied to the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public Works Department before plans will be approved and Authorization to Construct (install) is issued. a. Plumbing drawings for the proposed facility. b. Identification & Dimensions (length x width x depth) in inches for each compartment of each drainage unit. c. Dishwasher contribution (per supplier) in GPM d. Pulper contribution (per supplier) in GPM e. Drain specifications (pipe diameter) . f. Name of engineering firm or supplier who sized "Trap". g. Trap information including: supplier, type, size, calculations used to determine required 24 min. detention time. h. Flow control device information. Type i. Any other information requested by the Control Authority. No new Food Service Establishments will be allowed to initiate operations until grease - handling facilities are installed and approved by the Control Authority. All grease interceptors, whether singular or two tanks in series, must have each chamber directly accessible from the surface to provide means for servicing and maintaining the interceptor in working and operating condition. A basket, screen or other intercepting device shall prevent passage into the drainage system of solids, 1/2 inch or larger in size, for under the counter units. The basket or device shall be removable for cleaning purposes. If a Food Service Establishment chooses to install or has a food -waste grinder installed, the waste from these units shall pass through a grease interceptor. The Food Service Establishment shall service and maintain the unit as often as necessary to meet the conditions of this ordinance. 5 B. Existing Facilities All existing Food Service Establishments shall have grease -handling facilities, approved by the Control Authority. Food Service Establishments without any grease -handling facilities will be given a compliance deadline not to exceed six (6) months from date of notification to have approved and installed grease -handling equipment in compliance with this Policy. Failure to do so will be considered a violation of the Town of Troutman Sewer Use Ordinance and may subject the facility to penalties and corrective actions or service discontinuance. Said installations shall meet the same requirements for design as for new facilities. (See Section A. above under Construction Standards). In the event an existing Food Service Establishment's grease -handling facilities are either under -designed or substandard in accordance with this policy, the owner(s) will be notified in writing of the deficiencies, required improvements, and given a compliance deadline not to exceed six (6) months to conform with the requirements of this Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance. For cases in which "outdoor" type grease interceptors are infeasible to install, existing Food Service Establishments will be required to install adequate and approved "under- the-counter" grease traps for use on individual fixtures including dishwashers, sinks, and other potentially grease -containing drains. If it is determined that an "outdoor" type grease interceptor is infeasible the Food Service Establishment shall meet the same requirements for design as for new facilities. (See Section II. A. above under Construction Standards). Flow control fittings must be provided to the inlet side of all "under-the-counter" units to prevent overloading of the grease trap and to allow for proper operation. The Control Authority approval of flow control devices and grease trap design must be obtained prior to installation. The location of "under-the-counter" units must be near the source of the wastewater as physically possible. Wastewater from garbage grinders shall be discharged to grease traps/interceptors. In maintaining grease traps/interceptors, the owner(s) shall be responsible for the proper removal and disposal by appropriate means of the captured material and shall maintain records of the dates and means of disposal, which are subject to review by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public Works Deparment. (See Section I. F.) The use of enzymes, grease solvents, emulsifiers, etc. is not considered an acceptable grease trap maintenance practice and therefore is prohibited. 6 New Food Service Establishments in Existing Buildings Where practical, new Food Service Establishments locating in existing buildings will be required to comply with the grease trap Standards applicable to new facilities. (See Section II.). Where physically impossible to install "outdoor" units, "under-the-counter" units may be allowed as with existing food service establishments provided prior approval of unit type, size, location, etc. is approved by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN Public Works Department. (See B.2. above). EXCEPTIONS Under certain circumstances, the interceptor size and location may need special exceptions to this policy. If an exception to this policy is requested, the User must demonstrate that the size and location will not cause the facility any problems in meeting the discharge requirements of the Control Authority. Any variance to the requirements herein shall be granted at the discretion of the Public Works Director for the TOWN OF TROUTMAN. The intent of this policy is to ensure compliance with the Town's POTW NPDES Permit No. NC0021024, which is required by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. This policy is in no way intended to discourage development, but rather to protect the facilities and the Town's infrastructure as it relates to the sanitary sewer system. ENFORCEMENT a. The Control Authority shall conduct a minimum of one compliance inspection annually. The Director of Public Works may direct Public Works staff to inspect any one or more Food Service Establishment based on compliance history, collection system problems, etc. b. Food Service Establishments determined to be in Non -Compliance of the Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance requirements that are linked to a collection line blockage will be required to reimburse the TOWN OF TROUTMAN for expenses associated with clean-up. c. Food Service Establishments determined to be in Compliance with the Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance requirements that are linked to a collection line blockage will be required to increase its interceptor cleaning frequency. d. The TOWN OF TROUTMAN may assess penalties for failure to keep required records, failure to clean in -floor / under -sink units daily or in- 7 ground units every 30 days or according to variance issued by the TOWN OF TROUTMAN. PENALTIES • Food Service Establishments determined to be in non-compliance with the record keeping requirements of the Oil & Grease Removal Ordinance will be issued a Notice of Violation (NOV).

PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT OIL & GREASE REMOVAL 4 A FACT SHEET FOR Best Management Practices for Fats, lis, and Grease Residual fau, oils, and pease (FOG) are IT/products that food service establishments must constantly manage. Typically, FOG enter a facility's plumbing system from ware stashing, floor cleaning, and equipment sanitation. Sanitary seiner systems are neither designed nor equipped to handle the FOG that accumulates on the interior of the municipal sewer collection system pipes. Over JO% of North Carolina's 1999 sanitary mutt user/lows utre the result of pipe blockages from FOG accumulation from residential, Institutional and commercial sources. The best way to manage FOG is to keep the material out of the plumbing system. The following are suggestions for proper FOG management. Dry Clean -Up Practice dry cleanup. Remove food waste with "dry" methods such as scraping, wiping, or sweeping before using "wet" methods that use water. Wet methods typically wash the water and waste materials Into the drains where It eventually collects on the interior walls of the drainage pipes. Do not pour grease, fats or oils from cooking down the drain and do not use the sinks to dispose of food scraps. Likewise it is important to educate kitchen staff nut to remove drain screens as Lids may allow paper or plastic cups, straws, and other utensils to enter the plumbing system during clean up. The success of dry clean up is dependent upon the behavior of the employee and availability of dse tools for removal of food waste before washing. To practice dry dean up: ■ Use rubber scrapers to remove fats, oils and grease from cookware, utensils, chafing dishes, and serving ware. ■ Use food grade paper to soak up oil and grease under fryer baskets. ■ Use paper towels to wipe down work areas. Cloth towels will accumulate grease that will eventually end up in your drains from towel washing/rinsing.

A dry workplace is safer (or employees in avoiding slip, trips, and falls. Fur spill prevention: • Empty containers before they are full to avoid spills. • Use a cover to transport interceptor contents to rendering barrel. • Provide employees with the proper tools (ladles, ample containers, etc.) to transport materials without spilling. Maintenance Maintenance is key to avoiding FOG blockages. For whatever method or technology is used to collect, filter and store FOG, ensure that equipment is regularly maintained. All staff should be aware of and trained to perform correct cleaning procedures, particularly (or undcr•sink interceptors that are prone to break down due to improper maintenance. A daily and weekly maintenance schedule is highly recommended. ■ Contract with a management company to professionally clean large hood filters. Small hoods can be hand -:leaned with spray detergents and wiped down with cloths fur cleaning. food filters can be effectively cleaned by routinely spraying with hot water with little or no detergents over the mop sink that should be connected to a grease trap. After hot water rinse (separately trapped), filter panels can go into the dishwasher, For hoods to operate properly in the removal of greasc•ladcn vapors, the ventilation system will also need to be balanced with sufficient makeup air. CCDENR LIMien d Emtammul tk.Rh NORTH CAROLINA PRETREATMENT' CONSORTIUM ■ Skim/filter fryer grease daily and change oil when necessary. Use a test kit provided by your grocery distributor rather than simply a "guess" to determine when to change oil. This extends the life of both the fryer and the oil. lluild•up of carbon deposits on the bottom of the (rycr act as an insulator that forces the fryer to heat longer, thus causing the oil to break down sooner. ■ Collect fryer oil In an oil rendering tank fur disposal ur transport it to a bulk oil rendering tank instead of discharging it into a grease interceptor or waste drain. • Cleaning intervals depend upon the type of food establishment involved. Some facilities require monthly ur once every two months leaning. Establishments that operate a large number of fryers or handle a large amount of fried foods such as chicken, along with ethnic food establishments may need at least monthly cleanings. 1 ulklcaning of grcasc traps (removing all liquids and solids and scraping the walls) is a worthwhile investment. Remember, sugars, starches and other organics accumulate from the bottoms up. If sediment is allowed to accumulate in the trap, it will need to be pumped more frequently. ■ Develop a rotation system if multiple fryers are in use. Designate a single fryer for products that are particularly high in deposits, and change that one more often. Oil & Grease Collection/.Recycling & Food Donations httl arc catnnuxlitics that it handled propet%y can be mated as a valuable resource. ■ Begin thinking of oil and grcasc as a valuable commodity. Some rendering companies will offer services free•ofcharge and others will give a rebate on the materials collected. by the that these companies must be properly permitted Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Section at 919.733.0692, In order to remove FOG frost a facility. A list of grease collectors can be found sin the Directory rr f RM or baof rrs for calling Recyclable Materials at www.p I i's• !'% DPPEA at 1.800.763.0136. • Use 25.gallon rendering barrels with covers for onsite collection of oil and grease other than from fryers. Educate kitchen staff on the importance of keeping outside barrels covered at all times. During storms, uncovered or partially covered barrels allow storm water to enter the barrel resulting in oil running onto the ground and possibly into storm drains, and can 'contaminate' an otherwise useful byproduct. ▪ Use a 3-compartment sink for ware washing. Begin with a hot prc•wash, then a scouring sink with detergent, then a rinse sink. ■ Make sure all drain screens are installed. ■ Prior to washing and rinsing use a hot water ONLY (no detergent) prcrinsc that is separately trapped to remove nun- emulsifictl oils and greases from ware washing. Wash and rinse steps should also be trapped. ■ Empty grill top scrap baskets or scrap boxes and hoods into the rendering barrel. ■ Easy does it! instruct staff to be conservative about their use of fats, oils and grease in food preparation and serving. ■ Ensure that edible loud is nut flushed down your drains. Edible food waste may be donated to a local food bank. Inedible loud waste can be collected by a local garbage (eerier who will use food discards for (ceding livestock. food donation is a win•win situation. It helps restaurants reduce disposal costs and it puts the food in the hands of those who can use it. Check the Directory of Markets fur Recyclable Materials for a list of food waste collectors. Grease Traps x For grcasc traps to be effective, the units must be properly sized, constructed, and installed in a location to provide an adequate retention time for settling and accumulation of the FOG. If the units are too close to the FOG discharge and do not have enough volume to allow amassing of the FOG, the emulsified oils will pass thitrugh the unit ttithout Bring captured. for information on properly locating, cunsttuctint;, and sizing 'pease traps, contact your local county and city representatives and examine EPA guidance documents. ■ Ensure all grease -bearing drains disclt;uge to the grease trap. These include mop sinks, woks, wash sinks, prep sinks, utility sinks, pulpers, dishwashers, areas sud ctise h as those near fryerfloor drains in food preparation fryer or tilt/steam kettle. Nu toilet wastes should be plumbed to the grcasc trap. ■ If these suggested best management practices do nut adequately reduce FOG levels, the operator may consider installing a second grcasc trap with Iluw•tltruuph venting. This system should help reduce grease effluent substantially. Consumer Tip Buyer beware! When choosing a method of managing your oil and grease, ensure that it does what the vendor says it will do. Some technologies or "miracle cures" don't eliminate the ptoblcnt but result in grease accumulations further down the sewer line. "Out of sight" is not "out of mind." Check the vendor's references. Aif The Grease Goblin is the mascot for DPPEAS Gil and Grease Management Program. He serves as a reminder to keep grease out of sinks and drains before it becomes a nuisance.

C. 28166 PHONE: 704-528-7600 FAX: 704-528-7605 November 29, 1999 Mr. Rex Gleason NCDENR-Division of Water Quality 919 N. Main St. Mooresville, NC 28115 Dear Mr. Gleason, This letter is in response to your November 8 letter concerning the November 3 sewer collection system inspection, conducted by Mr. G.T. Chen of your office. Let me begin by once again apologizing for missing the November 18 deadline for responding to your letter. This was the result of an oversight by me personally, and I apologize. With respect to the sewer collection system inspection itself and your report, I have discussed both with Mr. Tom Addley; the Town's Director of Public Works. We are both of the opinion that the inspection went well, particularly in light; of Troutman's:•size and, limited budget. In fact it appears that most of Mr. Chen's comments were benign in nature. I would however like to take this opportunity to; address several of the comments that Mr. Addley and I judge to be more serious, most of which are currently being addressed by the Town's Public Works staff. First among these is labeled 7 under the additional comments related to items of pump _. stations/siphons inspection. The Town has contacted an electrician who will begin the process of repairing or replacing both th audio and visual high water alarms, on all the Town's lift stations. The second comment I would like to address is labeled 13 under the same section. The Town will erect emergency contact signs at all of its sewer lift stations. These signs will give the phone number that should be called if a lift station isinan alarm condition. Any new lift stations that are added to the Town's collection system will have an emergency contact sign added at the time of installation, as a part of the town's uniform construction standards. The third comment labeled 14 under this section deals with fencing around all of the Town's lift stations. First, I would like to address this comment by stating that although not all of thelift stations are in fenced enclosures, they all have restricted access. The lift stations are locked and winterized. However as, funding becomes available, the Town willbegin enclosing all existing lift stations. With respect to any future lift stations, the Town will require fenced enclosures as a part of its uniform construction standards. . The final itemis labeled 18 under this section. The .Town will add a flow measuring devise at the Legend Lane pump station when funds become available. All future lift station will have run-time recording devices included at installation, as a part of the Town's uniform construction standards. 1 I hope this information is of help to you. If you have any questions about this information, or if we can provide you with any additional information, please feel free to contact Mr. Tom Addley.

This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2010. 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. Compliance schedules requiring action and regional office notification are shown in bold. A summary of your schedules are presented below: Permit Condition Activity Compliance Date 1(4) FOG Inspection and Enforcement September 30, 2006 1(5) Capital Improvement Plan September 30, 2006 1(8) Pump Station Signage December 31, 2005 11(7) ROW Maintenance September 30, 2006 11(9) Response Action Plan Updates December 31, 2005 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 I(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 NorthCarolina Naturally Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unitlnternet http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919) 733-0059 DENR Customer Service Center Telephone 1 800 623-7748 An Equal Opportunity Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Mr. Duncan Page 2 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 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 (800) 858-0368. 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/ndceu/ 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 must 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. 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 (919) 733-5083 extension 527. If you need additional information concerning this permit, please contact Marie Doklovic in the Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit at (919) 733-5083 extension 371.

This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2010 and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 1. The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the City of Statesville Third Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0020591) 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 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: 1 PERMIT NUMBER WQCS00258 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 1(4). 4. The Permittee shall develop and implement an educational fats, oils and grease program 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. The Permittee shall develop and implement an inspection and enforcement program for fats, oils and grease within 12 months of permit issuance. A copy of the program materials shall be provided to the Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section to show compliance with this condition. This schedule does not include the educational component of the program. Educational materials shall be distributed at least annually, with increasing frequency and targeted areas as grease related blockages are noted. 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. The Permittee shall develop and present a Capital Improvement Plan meeting this permit condition for adoption within 12 months of a permit issuance. A copy of the Capital Improvement Plan shall be provided to the Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section to show compliance with this condition. 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. 2 PERMIT NUMBER WQCS00258 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. The Permittee shall install identification signs meeting this permit condition on all pump stations within three months of permit issuance. The Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section shall be notified in writing upon compliance with this condition. 9. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 2H .0219 (h) (7). 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 (I)(2) of this permit. 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. 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 can not be resolved in a short time period, the Permittee shall establish a plan for addressing the problem(s). 3. The Permittee shall develop and adhere to a schedule for testing emergency and standby equipment. 4. The Permittee shall develop and implement 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; b. Inspecting and exercising all valves; 3 PERMIT NUMBER WQCS00258 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.

Box 26 Troutman, NC 28166 Subject: Non -Discharge Compliance Evaluation Inspection Wastewater Collection System Troutman Collection System Permit No. WQCS00258 Iredell County Dear Mr. Duncan: Enclosed is a copy of the Non -Discharge Compliance Evaluation Inspection Report for the inspection conducted on June 23, 2005 by Ms. Barbara Sifford of this office. Representatives for The Town of Troutman were Mr. James K. Troutman and Mr. David A. Saleeby. Please note that the sections completed in the report pertain only to the areas that were inspected. The collection system for the Town of Troutman consists of .approximately twenty-three miles of gravity sewer, approximately three miles of force main, nine duplex pump stations, and two quadruple pump stations. The system discharges to the City of Statesville's Third Creek WWTP (NC0020591) for treatment and disposal. Generally, the inspection revealed that the collection system is being properly operated and maintained. For your reference a copy of DENR's reporting and record keeping requirements is enclosed with this letter. An :ORC designation form from the WPCSOCC is also enclosed for assigning the operator in responsible charge and the back-up operator_ Please be aware that all records pertinent to the collection system must be maintained for three years. Performance Standards The Town needs to develop an enforceable ordinance to regulate non-residential users who have not installed, operated or properly maintained grease traps or grease interceptors, or who have otherwise violated the terms of your local ordinance pertaining to fats, oils, and grease (FOG). You also need to develop a program for inspecting existing establishments to check the operation and maintenance of the grease traps, and develop an educational program for FOG to be distributed annually to areas that have noted grease related issues.

The CIP should cover a minimum time period of three years. An Emergency Response Plan is needed at each pump station in the event there is .a pump failure; and.a Spill Response Plan is needed that addresses notification and clean up procedures for sewage spills. ,Operations and Maintenance The attached -Compliance Inspection Report lists the information .that must be kept for ,a period ofthree years for pump stations, emergency generators, line cleaning, and .right .of way maintenance; and be made available for review during inspections by Division of Water Quality (DWQ) staff. The Town's collection system is classified as a CS-2 system .and, therefore, must have a certified operator in responsible charge (ORC) and back-up ORC. Please submit an updated ORC designation form (enclosed with this letter) to Raleigh for changing the back-up ORC. Pump Stations Five pump -stations were inspected and are discussed in the Compliance Evaluation Report. It is recommended that a schedule for testing the audible and visual alarms be established, and that the communication systems be checked for reliability. These .activities should be documented on the log sheets. General housekeeping was acceptable at the stations. Three pump stations have permanent generators, the others have quick connects for a portable generator. Emergency notification signage should be posted at'.all pump stations .that include pump station name (or number for identification) and phone number to call in the event of an alarm or visible problem. This needs to be completed byDecember.01, 2005. Please notify this office upon completion to show ,compliance with this requirement.

This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2010. 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. Compliance schedules requiring action and regional office notification are shown in bold. A summary of your schedules are presented below: Permit Condition Activity Compliance Date 1(4) FOG Inspection and Enforcement September 30, 2006 1(5) Capital Improvement Plan September 30, 2006 I (8) Pump Station Signage December 31, 2005 11(7) ROW Maintenance September 30, 2006 11(9) Response Action Plan Updates December 31, 2005 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 I (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 NorthCarolina Naturally Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unitlnternet http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919) 733-0059 DENR Customer Service Center Telephone 1 800 623-7748 An Equal Opportunity Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Mr. Duncan Page 2 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 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 (800) 858-0368. 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/ndceu/ 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 must 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. 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 (919) 733-5083 extension 527. If you need additional information concerning this permit, please contact Marie Doklovic in the Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit at (919) 733-5083 extension 371.

This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2010 and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 1. The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the City of Statesville Third Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0020591) 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 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 Togs, or other relevant evidence that: 1 PERMIT NUMBER WQCS00258 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) (Le., 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 1(4). 4. The Permittee shall develop and implement an educational fats, oils and grease program 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. The Permittee shall develop and implement an inspection and enforcement program for fats, oils and grease within 12 months of permit issuance. A copy of the program materials shall be provided to the Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section to show compliance with this condition. This schedule does not include the educational component of the program. Educational materials shall be distributed at least annually, with increasing frequency and targeted areas as grease related blockages are noted. 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. The Permittee shall develop and present a Capital Improvement Plan meeting this permit condition for adoption within 12 months of a permit issuance. A copy of the Capital Improvement Plan shall be provided to the Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section to show compliance with this condition. 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. 2 PERMIT NUMBER WQCS00258 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. The Permittee shall install identification signs meeting this permit condition on all pump stations within three months of permit issuance. The Mooresville Regional Office, Surface Water Protection Section shall be notified in writing upon compliance with this condition. 9. Pump station sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 2H .0219(h)(7). 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. 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. 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 can not be resolved in a short time period, the Permittee shall establish a plan for addressing the problem(s). 3. The Permittee shall develop and adhere to a schedule for testing emergency and standby equipment. 4.
