c. One right of way was inspected.
3. As you are aware, owners of permitted collection systems must comply with their permit
and all rules listed under NC Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02T .0400, et seq. The Town
of Faith compliance status with each of these rules is summarized below:
a. 15A NCAC 02T .0403(a)(1): Requires that the system be effectively maintained
and operated at all times to prevent discharge to land or surface waters and any
contravention of ground or surface water standards.
Observations: The Town of Faith has done an outstanding job maintaining and

WASTEWATER
SYSTEM
Annual Report
2017
Our mission is CLEAR!

Salisbury -Rowan Utilities (SRU) provides
'wastewater treatment at the Town Creek treat-
ment train located near Interstate 85 and the
Grant Creek treatment train off of Grubb Ferry
Road. The effluents at both trains are disinfected
with sodium hypochlorite and then the combined
effluents from both trains are dechlorinated with
sodium bisulfite at the City of Salisbury
Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and dis-
charged into the Yadkin River.
SRU treats industrial, commercial and residential
waste from Salisbury, Landis, China Grove,
Spencer, East Spencer, Rockwell, Faith and
Granite Quarry. Gravity sewer lines, force mains
and lift stations collect and pump the wastewater
to the treatment trains. An average of 8.3 million
gallons per day is treated using a process called
activated sludge. Trash and rags are first re-
moved by bar screens. Heavy particles such as
sand and grit settle out as the flow slows in the
grit chamber. The wastewater is then pumped to
aeration basins, which contain activated sludge.
The microorganisms or "bugs" feed on the
wastewater particles. The process then moves to
clarifiers where the "bugs" settle out leaving clear
treated wastewater or effluent. Sodium hypo -
chlorite is used for disinfection at the City of Sali-
bury WWTP.
Solids "left over" from the treatment process are
separated from the treated effluent by a filter belt
press. The solid material or "biosolids" that is left
is applied to permitted farmland in Rowan County
as a substitute for fertilizer. Only crops grown for
animal feed can be raised after biosolids are ap-
plied. SRU's Land Application Program (Permit #
WQ001956) land applied a combined total of
1,122.98 dry tons across 310.8 acres of farmland
in 2017. Salisbury -Rowan Utilities has a total of
1,005.1 acres of land permitted.
SRU operates a North Carolina certified munici-
pal laboratory where tests are analyzed 5 days
per week.
City of Salisbury WWTP (Permit NC0023884)- The City of Salisbury WWTP had no permit
violations in 2017.
The WWTP had no reportable overflows (bypasses) in 2017.

All discharges of any amount that reach surface waters are reported to the Division of Water Resources. In addition,
any spills to the ground that exceed 1,000 gallons are reported. If a discharge of 1,000 gallons or more reaches:sur-
face waters, a press release is sent to The Salisbury Post within 24 hours. If a discharge is more than 15,000 gallons,
a public notice is placed in The Salisbury Post and The Stanly News and Press (to notify the affected area down-
stream of Salisbury).
East Spencer Collection System Sewer Overflows (Permit No. WQCS00342) - no reportable sanitary
sewer overflows in 2017.
Environmental Education Efforts - In addition to the FOG (Fat, Oil, Grease & Wax) Program mentioned on the back
page, Salisbury -Rowan Utilities educates customers on the proper handling and disposal of other materials which can
affect the environment.
"No wipes down the pipes" is a campaign designed to inform customers that disposable wipes can be poten-
tially harmful to pipes and possibly impact the environment negatively. Ultimately the only product
designed to be flushed safely is toilet paper. = A
Medications are not safe to flush or to throw away. These should be placed in authorized medication drop
boxes which are located in designated pharmacies, hospitals, and government locations.
Mercury or devices containing mercury such as old thermometers, thermostats, switches, and
lights containing mercury vapor should be handled with extreme care and disposed of properly.

What -EPA Wants You to Know
Drinking water',: including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small .amounts of some
contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More
information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection
Agency's Safe Drinking Water Hotline [phone]):
Some people may be more :vulnerable to contaminants in : drinking water than the general population. Immuno-
compromised persons' such as persons with cancer undergoing ,chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ
transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system, disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at
risk from infections.: These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC.
guidelines on appropriate means to . lessen the : risk::of infection by cryptosporidium arid other microbiological
contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline [phone]):
If present, elevated levels oflead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children.
Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing.
The Town of Faith is responsible for providing; high quality drinking water, but:cannot control the variety of materials
used in'plumbi g components. When, your water has: beensitting for several hours;. you can,minimize the potential for
lead exposure by flushing your tap ;for 30 seconds to '2 minutes before using water for:drinking or cooking: If you are
concerned about lead in your' water, you may wish to have your water tested: Information on lead `in drinking water,
testing' methods; .and stepsyou can` take to; minimize exposure is available from. the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at
http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs,
and wells. As Water travels over_the surface of the land or through theground, it:dissolvesnaturally occurring minerals
and, in Some cases, radioactive'material, and can pick, up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from
human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include microbial contaminants, such as viruses and
bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations; and wildlife;
inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally -occurring or result from urban storm water
runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming;. pesticidesand
herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses;
organic .chemical; contaminants, inchding synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial
processes and -petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff„ and septic systems;
and radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally -occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining
activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations ,which limit the amount of certain
contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in, bottled
water, which must provide the saine protection for public health.

When You Turn on Your Tap, Consider the Source
The water that is used by this system is ground water that comes from 5 wells. Well #2, #5 and #6 are located on Jaycee
Street, Well #3 and #4 are located on Fraley. Street.. The wells are being treated with sodium hypochlorite concentration
of 12.5%.
Source Water Assessment Program (SWAP) Results
The North Carolina Department of Environment 'and' Natural Resources (DENR), Public Water Supply (PWS) Section,
Source Water Assessment Program (SWAP) conducted assessments for all drinking water sourcesacross North Carolina.
The purpose of the assessments was to determine the susceptibility of each drinking water source; (well or surface water
intake) .to. Potential ContaminantSources (PCSs). The results of the assessment are available m SWAP Assessment
Reports that include maps, background' information, and a relative susceptibility rating of Higher, Moderate, or Lower.
The relative susceptibility rating of each source for The Town of Faith was determined by ;combining thecontaminant
rating (number and location of PCSs within the assessment area) and the inherent vulnerability rating (i.e., characteristics
or existing conditions of the well or watershed and its delineated assessment area.). The assessment findings are
summarized in the table below:

questions about the SWAP report please contact the Source Water Assessment staff by phone at 919-707-9098.
It is important to understand that a susceptibility rating of "higher" does not imply poor water quality, only the systems'
potential to become contaminated by PCS's in the -assessment area.

Water Quality;Data Table of Detected Contaminants
We routinelymonitor for over 150 contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws: The table`
below lists all 'the drinking water contaminants that we detected in -the last round of sampling for 'each. particular
contaminant group. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. Unless
otherwise noted; the data presented in this table is from testing done January 1 through December 31, 2015. The EPA or
the State requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these
contaminants are not expected to vary significantly from year toyear.Some of the data, though representative of the
water quality,is more than one year old.
Unregulated contaminants; are those for which EPA has not established drinking water .:standards. The purpose Of
unregulated contaminant monitoring is to assist EPA in determining the occurrence of unregulated .contaminants . in
drinking water and whether future regulation is warranted.
Important Drinking Water Definitions:
Not -Applicable ;OVA) Information not applicable/not required for that particular water system or for that particular rule;
Non Detects (ND) Laboratory analysis indicates that the contaminant is not present at the level of detection'set fdrthe
particular methodology used:
Parts per million (ppm): or Milligrams liter. (mg/L) - One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a
single penny in $1.0, 000.
Action Level (AL)' - The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements
which a water system must follow.
Treatment Technique "(TT) - A required process` intended to reduce the level of a contammant.in drinking water.,,:,
Maximum Residual Disinfection Level (MRDL) The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is
convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
Maximum Residual Disinfection Level Goal (MRDLG) — The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which -there is.
no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial
contaminants.:. '.
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - Thehighest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are
set as close to th'e MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no
known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
Extra Note: MCL's are set at very stringent levels. To understand the, possible health effects described for many regulated:.
constituents, a person would have to drink 2 litersof water every day`at theMCL`level for alifetnne to have a on'e-in-a-

Fats
Oils
Grease
What is FOG?
FOG refers specifically to fats, oils and grease that enter the sewer system from homes,
apartments, restaurants, industry and public facilities. Grease from cooking, gravy, cooking oil,
and sauces may look harmless as a liquid, butwhen it cools it gets thick and sticky.
As a byproduct of cooking, FOG is usually found in:
• baking goods
4utter,:l-serra-ri�ening
• cooking oil
• fats and oil from cooked meats
• food scraps
• gravy
• mayonnaise
• : salad dressings
• sauces
• sour cream
When poured or washed down the drain, FOG builds up on pipe walls, restricting the flow of
wastewater exiting our home's plumbing. Over time, FOG leads to blockages that results in
overflows into our homes or onto our streets, down storm drains, and into local waterways, all
posing a serious risk to public health.
You can help prevent a costly and unsanitary overflow by following a few simple steps:
Do!
• Place cooled oil and grease into trash bins or covered collection containers.
• Be aware of the "hidden oils" such as salad dressings, cheese, cookies, pastries, sauces and
gravies.
• Scrape food scraps from dishes into trash bins.
• Manually wipe off all visible fats, oils, grease and food residue from dishes and cookware into trash
bins.
• Use a strainer-hrthe sink -to collect-excessiood-partfcres.
• Clean up grease spills with absorbent material and place into trash bins.
• Encourage neighbors to help keep fats, oils and grease out of the sewer system.
Don't!
• Don't pour oil or grease down the drain.
• Don't scrape food scraps down the drain.
• Don't pour liquid foods (syrups, batters, gravy, etc.) down the drain.
• Don't run hot water over greasy dishes, pans or fryers - it will not prevent FOG from sticking to the
inside of the pipes.
• Don't use chemicals to remove grease clogs; they can damage the piping system.
Also, place a waste basket in the bathroom to dispose of solid wastes; disposable diapers,
condoms and personal hygiene products do not belong in the sewer system: Do not usethe
toilet as a waste basket.

FAITH — Keith Deal was elected mayor Tuesday night just minutes after being sworn in as a member of the town's Board
of Aldermen.
His wife, Terri, held a Bible for him as Rowan County Clerk of Court Jeff Barger administered the oath of office. His
mother, Miriam Deal, also attended the meeting.
In his first bid for public office, Deal was the top vote -getter in the Nov. 3 municipal election. Traditionally, the candidate
with the most votes is then elected mayor. -
Deal said of his first meeting: "I had to be coached a little bit on some of the stuff, but it's going to get better as it goes on.
I'm just looking forward to working with the board and Karen (Fink, town clerk) and the townspeople. I'm just ready to get
going."Current Mayor Pro Tem Todd Peeler was re-elected to fill in for the mayor as needed. He and fellow incumbent
Gary Gardner tied with the second highest number of votes.
Peeler, Gardner, outgoing Mayor Bill Johnson and Mark Shores were also sworn in as aldermen.
Maxey Sanderson, attending his last meeting as an alderman, was unseated in the election after serving two terms on the
board.
Shores thanked Sanderson for his service to the town. "I do appreciate it and enjoyed working with you," he said.
Fellow board members echoed his appreciation.
Gardner said, "Stay active."
Also at Monday's meeting, 1st Sgt. R.T. Taylor of the Granite Quarry -Faith Joint Police Authority reported on a traffic
study conducted in downtown Faith, where the posted speed limit is 20 miles per hour.
Traffic was monitored by a radar trailer set up on Main Street on two different days in November, Taylor said. On Nov. 10,
from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., the radar detected 2,268 vehicles traveling toward Salisbury.
Of those, he said 2,059 were traveling within the speed limit while 209 were exceeding it.
On Nov. 13, Taylor said the radar trailer monitored traffic coming through town from Salisbury. From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
that day, 2,610 vehicles were detected — 2,412 of which were traveling within the speed limit and 198 above it.
Taylor said the study was conducted at the request of townspeople concerned about people speeding on Main Street. "So
we're going to step things up a little bit," he said, referring to the enforcement of the speed limit.
The study only recorded the evening traffic rush, Taylor told aldermen. "We missed the morning," he said.
Sanderson said traffic is very heavy from 5 to 8 a.m.

FAITH — The town board was celebrating Tuesday night over the nearly complete
sewer project, which has stretched across almost two years.
They also celebrated because no citizens came to the meeting to complain.
Not that they don't like citizen's comments. They were just glad to see there were no
problems or issues related to the work on the project, aldermen said.
Since the project officially began on Dec. 9, 2002, aldermen have heard complaints
about bad roads, property damage from flying rock and even snakes.
But they hope all that is part of the past. 'We are closing out all of the complaints,"
Resident Inspector Jeff Germain told the board. 'We will wrap it up in the next few
weeks."
The board did agree to pay Patterson Paving $29,500 to complete the paving on
Gardner Street.
And Town Engineer Tate Lanning told the board there would be a minor delay. Lanning
said the only obstacle to getting a certificate of completion was work on two pump
stations — one nn Deal Street the other at I anion club.
Lanning g said the Deal Street station had a leak, and the wrong pumps were shipped to
tkc I Pninn f_:11 ih mite I -la aairi it J...... Shr, dtAVP atniitn1AtPPl4 trIl Jamf the nPApimps .n
and re -tested.
'When will it go live?' Alderman Ron Hatley asked Lanning.
"That's the $64,000 question," he responded.
But Lannina seemed to think aldermen and 'Faith residents won't have to wait much
longer.
'We appreciate nverythinn you guys have jinn® �' alrierman Tim 1Alilliams tnhl Lanning
and Germain.
'We're not finished yet," Lanning said. "But it's been tough."
Karen Fink, the town clerk, said a list of possible plumbers is available at town hall.
