NC0025933_Fact Sheet_20210304

FACT SHEET FOR EXPEDITED PERMIT RENEWALS
This form must be completed by Permit Writers for all expedited permits which do not require
full Fact Sheets. Expedited permits are generally simple 100% domestics (e.g., schools, mobile
home parks, etc) that can be administratively renewed with minor changes, but can include
facilities with more complex issues (Special Conditions, 303(d) listed water, toxicity testing,
instream monitoring, compliance concerns).

Section 1. Facility Overview:
The Days Inn West WWTP operates a facility with a permitted wastewater discharge of
0.02 MGD which receives 100% domestic wastewater and serves 20 employees and 112
rooms. The facility has an influent lift station, flow equalization basin, manual bar screen,
extended aeration basin with dual blowers, rectangular hopper clarifier with skimmer and
sludge return, aerobic sludge digester, tablet chlorinator and chlorine contact chamber,
and tablet dechlorinator. Facility has a continuous discharge.
A dye test was performed in September 2020 as part of a site inspection to determine the
location of the outfall and was again done in October 2020 to confirm the exact pipe the
discharge came from. The dye test revealed that outfall location on the map in the permit
needs the arrow to be above (Northside) the 3 lane road (19/23/74) instead of below
(Southside) the 3 lane road (19/23/74). The ARO inspector stated that the outfall was in
the same watershed area, just on the other side of the DOT box culvert. The dye test also
revealed that the discharge is in the high flow part of George Branch. The discharge
location in the permit will remain as George Branch and applicable permit limits will
continue using dilution.

Section 2. Compliance History (August 2015 - August 2020):
• 1 NOV for fecal coliform daily max exceedance
• 1 CPA for ammonia nitrogen monthly average exceedance
• 4 NOVs for BOD frequency violations
• 3 NOVs for fecal coliform frequency violations
• 3 NOVs for ammonia nitrogen frequency violations
• 3 NOVs for TSS frequency violations
• 1 NOV for late/missing DMR
Ammonia nitrogen evaluation:
Per 15A NCAC 02B .0404(c), winter limits shall not be more than 2 times those of
summer limits. The current permit contains ammonia nitrogen limits for winter
(November 1 - March 31) that are greater than 2 times those for summer (April 1 -
October 31). A review of discharge monitoring data from August 2015 to June 2020
shows that the permittee will be able to meet stricter limits in winter a majority of the
time. As such, the ammonia nitrogen limits for winter will be reduced per 15A NCAC
02B .0404(c).
Winter ammonia nitrogen data from November 1, 2015 through March 31, 2020:
• Maximum daily value = 31.7 mg/L

NPDES Implementation of Instream Dissolved Metals Standards - Freshwater
Standards
The NC 2007-2015 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by
the NC Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The
US EPA subsequently approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016, with some
exceptions. Therefore, metal limits in draft permits out to public notice after April 6,
2016 must be calculated to protect the new standards - as approved.

General Information on the Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA)
The RPA process itself did not change as the result of the new metals standards.
However, application of the dissolved and hardness -dependent standards requires
additional consideration in order to establish the numeric standard for each metal of
concern of each individual discharge.
The hardness -based standards require some knowledge of the effluent and instream
(upstream) hardness and so must be calculated case -by -case for each discharge.
Metals limits must be expressed as `total recoverable' metals in accordance with 40 CFR
122.45(c). The discharge -specific standards must be converted to the equivalent total
values for use in the RPA calculations. We will generally rely on default translator values
developed for each metal (more on that below), but it is also possible to consider case -
specific translators developed in accordance with established methodology.
RPA Permitting Guidance/WQBELs for Hardness -Dependent Metals - Freshwater
The RPA is designed to predict the maximum likely effluent concentrations for each
metal of concern, based on recent effluent data, and calculate the allowable effluent
concentrations, based on applicable standards and the critical low -flow values for the
receiving stream.
If the maximum predicted value is greater than the maximum allowed value (chronic or
acute), the discharge has reasonable potential to exceed the standard, which warrants a
permit limit in most cases. If monitoring for a particular pollutant indicates that the
pollutant is not present (i.e. consistently below detection level), then the Division may
remove the monitoring requirement in the reissued permit.
1. To perform a RPA on the Freshwater hardness -dependent metals the Permit
Writer compiles the following information:
Page 5 of 8

• Critical low flow of the receiving stream, 7Q10 (the spreadsheet
automatically calculates the 1Q10 using the formula 1 Q 10 = 0.843
(s7Q 10, cfs) 0.993
• Effluent hardness and upstream hardness, site -specific data is preferred
• Permitted flow
• Receiving stream classification
2. In order to establish the numeric standard for each hardness -dependent metal of
concern and for each individual discharge, the Permit Writer must first determine
what effluent and instream (upstream) hardness values to use in the equations.
The permit writer reviews DMR's, Effluent Pollutant Scans, and Toxicity Test
results for any hardness data and contacts the Permittee to see if any additional
data is available for instream hardness values, upstream of the discharge.
If no hardness data is available, the permit writer may choose to do an initial
evaluation using a default hardness of 25 mg/L (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)).
Minimum and maximum limits on the hardness value used for water quality
calculations are 25 mg/L and 400 mg/L, respectively.
If the use of a default hardness value results in a hardness -dependent metal
showing reasonable potential, the permit writer contacts the Permittee and
requests 5 site -specific effluent and upstream hardness samples over a period of
one week. The RPA is rerun using the new data.
The overall hardness value used in the water quality calculations is calculated as
follows:
Combined Hardness (chronic)
= (Permitted Flow, cfs *Avg. Effluent Hardness, mg/L) x (s7Q 10, cfs *Avg. Upstream
Hardness, mg/L)
(Permitted Flow, cfs + s7Q10, cfs)
The Combined Hardness for acute is the same but the calculation uses the 1Q10
flow.
3. The permit writer converts the numeric standard for each metal of concern to a
total recoverable metal, using the EPA Default Partition Coefficients (DPCs) or
site -specific translators, if any have been developed using federally approved
methodology.
Page 6 of 8

EPA default partition coefficients or the "Fraction Dissolved" converts the
value for dissolved metal at laboratory conditions to total recoverable metal
at in -stream ambient conditions. This factor is calculated using the linear
partition coefficients found in The Metals Translator: Guidance for
Calculating a Total Recoverable Permit Limit from a Dissolved Criterion
(EPA 823-B-96-007, June 1996) and the equation:
Cdiss
Ctotal
1
1 + { [Kpo] [SS(l+a)] [10-6] }
Where:
ss = in -stream suspended solids concentration [mg/1], minimum of 10 mg/L
used, and
Kpo and a = constants that express the equilibrium relationship between
dissolved and adsorbed forms of metals. A list of constants used for each
hardness -dependent metal can also be found in the RPA program under a
4. The numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the default partition
coefficient (or site -specific translator) to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at
ambient conditions.
In some cases, where an EPA default partition coefficient translator does not exist
(ie. silver), the dissolved numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by
the EPA conversion factor to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient
conditions. This method presumes that the metal is dissolved to the same extent as
it was during EPA's criteria development for metals. For more information on
conversion factors see the June, 1996 EPA Translator Guidance Document.
5. The RPA spreadsheet uses a mass balance equation to determine the total
allowable concentration (permit limits) for each pollutant using the following
equation:
Ca = (s7Q 10 + Qw) (Cwqs) — (s7Q 10) (Cb)
Qw
Where: Ca = allowable effluent concentration (µg/L or mg/L)
Cwqs = NC Water Quality Standard or federal criteria (µg/L or mg/L)
Cb = background concentration: assume zero for all toxicants except NH3 *
(µg/L or mg/L)
Qw = permitted effluent flow (cfs, match s7Q 10)
s7Q 10 = summer low flow used to protect aquatic life from chronic toxicity
and human health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from
noncarcinogens (cfs)
* Discussions are on -going with EPA on how best to address background
concentrations
Flows other than s7Q 10 may be incorporated as applicable:
1 Q 10 = used in the equation to protect aquatic life from acute toxicity
Page 7 of 8

QA = used in the equation to protect human health through the
consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from carcinogens
30Q2 = used in the equation to protect aesthetic quality
6. The permit writer enters the most recent 2-3 years of effluent data for each
pollutant of concern. Data entered must have been taken within four and one-half
years prior to the date of the permit application (40 CFR 122.21). The RPA
spreadsheet estimates the 95th percentile upper concentration of each pollutant.
The Predicted Max concentrations are compared to the Total allowable
concentrations to determine if a permit limit is necessary. If the predicted max
exceeds the acute or chronic Total allowable concentrations, the discharge is
considered to show reasonable potential to violate the water quality standard, and
a permit limit (Total allowable concentration) is included in the permit in
accordance with the U.S. EPA Technical Support Document for Water Quality -
Based Toxics Control published in 1991.
7. When appropriate, permit writers develop facility specific compliance schedules
in accordance with the EPA Headquarters Memo dated May 10, 2007 from James
Hanlon to Alexis Strauss on 40 CFR 122.47 Compliance Schedule Requirements.
8. The Total Chromium NC WQS was removed and replaced with trivalent
chromium and hexavalent chromium Water Quality Standards. As a cost savings
measure, total chromium data results may be used as a conservative surrogate in
cases where there are no analytical results based on chromium III or VI. In these
cases, the projected maximum concentration (95th %) for total chromium will be
compared against water quality standards for chromium III and chromium VI.
9. Effluent hardness sampling and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the
discharge, are inserted into all permits with facilities monitoring for hardness -
dependent metals to ensure the accuracy of the permit limits and to build a more
robust hardness dataset.

Linda,
This seems to be a reasonable approach. I will talk with Chris and Chad to make sure. Attached is the encroachment
form. If you can fill this out and provide me the Covid-19 form information on page 5 and a little more detailed
drawing that would be great. This will get the process started on our end. Hope all is well!

Subject: Days Inn Discharge Line Extension
Hi Nick,
I believe you helped me a couple years ago with another question I had, but I doubt you remember me given the
number of people you deal with daily. Anyhow, I work with Water Quality (used to be DENR) in the Asheville Office
and am trying to figure out the best option for one of our Permitted Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP), the
Days Inn at the East Canton exit.
This WWTP and its discharge line have been in place for decades (1980's). My Agency was informed decades ago
that the Days Inn discharge line went to Georges Branch, however it does not, it goes to an Unnamed Tributary (UT)
to Georges Branch. Both the UT and Georges Branch are within the DOT ROW; this ROW is where the UT and
George Branch flow together and are fortunately daylighted (not culverted). I spoke with Greg Benton and he could
not find any documentation of this from way back when; he suggested I contact you to see how to proceed. And I
met with Chad Young last week to verify the location of the discharge line from the Days Inn WWTP via a dye
test. So, we've done a bit of work figuring out what we are dealing with here; however this discharge line likely
needs to be extended "40-50' along the Unnamed Tributary (UT) down to George Branch within the DOT ROW. No
road crossings, just a pipe extension.
Chad said he would speak with you regarding this line and its location, so I have included him here. I attached a
Google Earth image to assist you. I "attempted" to draw in the UT (the lighter blue line), George Branch, the Days
Inn line that has been there for decades and the extension that may be needed. I hope this helps.
If you could let me know your thoughts on this and how I might advise the Permittee to proceed in getting the
discharge line extended please. Feel free to call me at the number below.
Thank you,

Workforce Safety Plan: COVID-19 NCDOT Encroachment ID#:
WORKFORCE SAFETY PLAN
FOR ENCROACHMENT ACTIVITIES: COVID-19
EFFORTS THE N.C. TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRY IS TAKING TO STOP THE SPREAD OF COVID-19
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) and their partners expect all parties involved in
the delivery of transportation projects to abide by the guidelines issued from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS).
Response to COVID-19 is rapidly evolving; new information and guidelines may be issued from the CDC,
NCDHHS, or other state or federal agencies. NCDOT and their partners should review the current CDC and
NCDHHS guidance, including the resources listed at the end of this document, for up-to-date information
on how to respond to COVID-19. Additional guidelines may be issued by state or federal agencies that
should be followed in addition to the guidance included in this document.
Though certain Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements have been relaxed in response to the
pandemic, employers must still maintain all information about employee illness as a confidential medical
record in compliance with the ADA. If an employee is suspected of having or tests positive for COVID-19, it
is essential that management keep the identity of the employee and details related to the employee's
health confidential.
Below are precautions required by NCDOT and from encroaching parties and their contractors performing
construction within NCDOT Rights of Way. The term employee refers to any person on a job site within
NCDOT right of way for the purpose of constructing or inspecting the work related to construction of a
facility under an approved encroachment agreement and where that employee may or may not be under
employment by or under contract to NCDOT.
EMPLOYEE WELLNESS
• If an employee has not yet reported to work and develops any COVID-19 symptoms (i.e. fever,
coughing, or shortness of breath) — STAY HOME and immediately:
o Call a health care provider
o Self -Isolate
o Communicate with your supervisor
o Remain calm and follow all instructions from your health care provider
• Employees who appear to have acute respiratory illness symptoms (i.e. cough, shortness of breath)
upon arrival to work, or become sick during the day, should be separated from others and sent
home immediately. The potentially affected employees should immediately follow the steps
outlined above, which includes immediately contacting a health care provider.
• Should an employee show symptoms of acute respiratory illness or be diagnosed with COVID-19, all
other employees who have worked in close proximity to the affected employee during the last 14
Updated: 4/11/2020 Page 1

Workforce Safety Plan: COVID-19 NCDOT Encroachment ID#:
days and all encroachment points of contact indicated at the end of this plan should be notified of
potential exposure to the disease without identifying the affected employee.
• Consideration should be given to employees at "High Risk" of severe illness from COVID-19, who,
per NCDHHS, include employees:
o Over 65 years of age, OR
o With underlying health conditions including heart disease, lung disease, or diabetes, OR
o With weakened immune system
• "High Risk" Employees should be given the opportunity to discuss alternate work
arrangements/duties with their employer or take leave according to their company policies.
• For guidance on confirmed positive tests for COVID-19, refer to the most recent version of the
"COVID-19 Guidance for Employees on Encroachment Job Sites within NCDOT Right of Way"
located on last page of this plan.
PERSONAL HYGIENE
• Clean hands often by washing with soap and water for 20 seconds. If soap and water are not
available and hands are not visibly dirty, an alcohol -based hand sanitizer that contains 60%-95%
alcohol may be used.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, mouth, or other parts of your face.
• Do not breathe, cough, or sneeze on another person or into the open air. Employees should cover
their noses and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing (or an elbow or shoulder if no
tissue is available).
• A facemask for covering nose and mouth is encouraged on the job site.
• Appropriate gloves are encouraged while performing functions of the job.
CLEANING/DISINFECTING
• Wash stations and/or hand sanitizer are encouraged on each project site.
• Appropriate cleaning staff should clean frequently touched surfaces and objects with disinfectants
at a minimum of once per day.
o Office/buildings: door knobs, light switches, phones, computers/keyboards, copy machines,
elevator buttons, toilets, faucets, sinks, countertops, paper towel dispensers, desktops,
handrails, folders, vending machines, counters, tables, cabinets/knobs, etc.
o Shop Yard/Jobsite: vehicle/equipment door handles, keys, gear shifts, steering
wheel/operator controls and levers, fuel pump dispensers, touch points on machinery, etc.
o Electronic equipment: cell phones, computers, keyboards, etc.
• Appropriate cleaning staff should sanitize/disinfect facilities and work areas after persons
suspected/confirmed to have COVID-19 have been in the facility or work area.
Updated: 4/11/2020 Page 2

Workforce Safety Plan: COVID-19 NCDOT Encroachment ID#:
o It is recommended to close off access to areas used by the ill persons and wait as long as
practical, 24 hours if possible, before beginning cleaning and disinfection to minimize
potential for exposure to respiratory droplets. Open outside doors and windows to increase
air circulation in the area if possible.
o Appropriate cleaning staff should clean and disinfect all areas used by the ill persons,
focusing especially on frequently touched surfaces.
GENERAL
• Increase communication measures between all parties regarding schedule, daily activities, etc. to
reduce/minimize worker exposure in accordance with but not limited to the requirements below.
• Minimize on -site personnel such as subcontractors, work crews, QC personnel, and inspection staff
to those required for that day's activities. If work is postponed or cancelled, immediately notify
appropriate parties.
• Practice "Social Distancing" whenever feasible. Social Distancing is designed to limit the spread of a
disease by reducing the opportunities for close contact between people. All personnel have the
responsibility to remind each other to stay 6 feet or more apart. Examples of Social Distancing
include:
o Reducing face-to-face exposure by using conference calls and video conferencing
■ If an in -person meeting is absolutely required and cannot be rescheduled or
attended remotely, the meeting is limited to a maximum of 10 people while
maintaining Social Distancing of 6 feet or more.
o Avoiding unnecessary travel
• Do not congregate at lunch or breaks. Bringing your lunch is encouraged.
• No communal coolers or drink stations are allowed. Supervisors should confirm with employees
prior to beginning work for appropriate hydration and nutrition availability to employees for the
duration of the employee's shift and without direct contact with others on the job site.
• First line of communication should be by phone, rather than in -person.
• Do not shake hands.
• Do not share iPads, tablets, pens, or clipboards for signing or any other purpose. Take pictures as
proof of attendance at meetings.
• Sharing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is strictly prohibited.
• Vehicles, equipment, and tools
o Limit the number of people riding in a vehicle together.
o Wipe down and disinfect vehicles after each trip.
o As much as possible, do not share tools or equipment. If a tool or piece of equipment must
be shared, the parts of it that are touched should be sanitized between uses.
Updated: 4/11/2020 Page 3

Workforce Safety Plan: COVID-19 NCDOT Encroachment ID#:

Subject: Days Inn call?
HI Brianna,
I have gotten all the info and assistance I need from the DOT folks with regard to the Days Inn discharge line. DOT
said basically the next step is for the Encroachment Form to be filled out and submitted, obviously that is where I
stop assisting and Days Inn (or their Rep) takes over.
Since James and James (J&J) assisted me with dye work on two occasions, they are aware that something is coming
down the pipe (O ) with regard to probable permit changes for the Days Inn, and have a ready inquired with me
what they can do to assist. Is it ok for me to let J&J know about moving forward with DOT and let J&J tell Days Inn
(which they may have already, no telling). I am not sure what to do now so I don't do something wrong. Do you
think it is time for another chat with John and LD? If so, can you arrange one since it is usually Johns schedule that
is tied up?
I guess if we have another call we can discuss other permits or just touch base on some like N. View MHP, etc
Anyhow let me know what you think, thanks!

Subject: Days Inn pipe location/NH MA concern
HI Brianna,
Thanks for sitting on the Days Inn permit a bit longer. I have DOT lined up tomorrow to clear a path so I can find out
exactly which line is Days Inn. And someone with the contract operation firm will be there to put dye down the
effluent.
Depending on what I find, I have concerns for the Permittee. Brianna we touched on this on the phone but the
closer I looked the more I am concerned. Let me explain. If it is indeed going to Georges Branch, then the limits
won't need to change as drastically. However, if the discharge is going to the UT and the NH limits are dropped
considerably then we should give them a timeline to prepare for the lower "0" flow NH limits. It is the MA that will
be tough to meet.
I looked at their DMR data from 1-2018 to present and there would have only been one DM violation (which only
would have generated a NOV), however their MA for that timeframe would have generated 11 Civil Penalties. They
would need a reasonable amount of time to come into compliance with such low NH limits. I don't know if
"operations" alone can meet a 2 and 4 MA, they may have to install tertiary treatment to meet those numbers,
which would be a large expense. This is not a stream standard violation scenario, regardless of which stream they
discharge to, it is a highly modified DOT Interstate ROW culverted stream. Decades ago someone may have
misrepresented where they discharge and now that I may have found out differently, we would be setting them up
for failure immediately if we don't offer a timeline.
Thanks,

HI Brianna,
My inspection at Days Inn went well. Juanita said she had been notified that she needed to correctly fill out the
applications, so thank you for sending the email regarding that.
We did a dye test to locate the outfall, which is what I needed to verify. The Days Inn outfall location on the map in
the permit just needs the arrow directed to above (Northside) the 3 lane (19/23/74) instead of the below
(Southside) the 3 lane (19/23/74). No need to change the permit limits, it is still the same watershed area, it is just
on the other side of the DOT box culvert for the old 3 lane.
Once you draft that permit you can send it my way. But I will tell you I believe the component list for the current
permit is incorrect. The Flow meter needs to be removed. Days Inn does not have a flow meter, they are
instantaneous.
Thank you,

Hi Brianna,
Let me start by saying I am sorry Brianna but I am going to have to ask you to deal with the application; it is
incorrect. I am tired of James and James submitting renewal applications for their clients that are incorrect. And
their clients rely on them as a Contractor to do this for them so they just sign them without really understanding or
looking at what they are signing. Seems like an email with corrections would be ok, but I don't know that is your
call.
Days Inn (NC0025933):
Juanita did this application for them I imagine and she needs to do it correctly and Ms. Harrell should not sign
something she has not read over I agree, but there are too many errors. Owner and Operator info are not
complete/accurate:
Owner
Juanita does not get to put her phone number as the Owners phone number, she is not the owner. We need the
owners phone number and all contact info corrected/verified.
Operator
The Operator is not Days Inn, it is James and James, their mailing address is not Smokey Park Hwy, nor is that their
email address. The Operator info needs to be corrected/verified.
Outfall
I want them to then to verify the exact location of that outfall pipe. Preferably on an aerial map, with a picture of
the pipe. I think they need to do a dye study to prove where that outfall is. The map submitted shows the outfall
pipe south of Hwy 19. I'd like this verified before you go to draft. Long story here and associated somewhat with
that email chain.
I need to do an inspection of this facility by the end of September. Can you sit on this permit for a bit longer, try to
get the info noted above from James and James (or Permittee) while I try to get the outfall figured out?
Briarwood (NC0029882):
Same as above the Operator info all wrong, I think we need an accurate Application.

Subject: RE: Review of Limits Candler Travel and Days Inn
Linda — the short answer to your request is no. More specifically, the answer is not yet - and maybe not at all.
Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(1) prohibit backsliding of effluent
limitations in NPDES permits. These provisions require effluent limitations in a reissued permit to be as stringent as
those in the previous permit, with some exceptions where limitations may be relaxed (e.g., based on new information,
increases in production may warrant less stringent TBEL limits, or WQBELs may be less stringent based on updated RPA
or dilution).
We have new information, but that information may not change the basis for the limits.
I've attached the WLA summary pages from 1996. The Travel Center had a prior permit that was rescinded before it
received NC0085952.
2

Max Haner talked with Jackie Nowell about the discharge location and the basis for the tertiary limits. His original staff
report listed George Branch as the receiving stream, but his discussion with Jackie led to both parties agreeing that is
was a discharge to a UT.
If the effluent now travels through a DOT culvert to reach George Branch, the culvert is considered an unnamed
tributary. 15A NCAC 02B allows for effluent channels [see attachment], but a DOT culvert doesn't qualify per 15A NCAC
02B.0228 (1). Unless the Travel Center has its own pipe directly to George Branch, the UT restriction would remain, as
would the current limits.
However, since your email stated that the Travel Center and the Days Inn have the same receiving stream, we may have
to consider tighter limits for NC0025933. If Days Inn has their own pipe directly to George Branch, they're fine. If they
are discharging to the DOT culvert, they are discharging to a UT with zero flow.
To change existing permit limits without a request from the permittee, the permit has to be reopened by the
Director. That's rarely allowed, and particularly unlikely now.
IF the Travel Center has its own line to George Branch they could request a major permit modification, and pay the
major mod fee. We would need updated 7Q10 data for George Branch, as the data used to permit NC0025933 and
NC0085952 is >20 years old. We would also require an EAA. What is the sewer availability for the Travel Center
today? It's been 22 years since the it received NC0085952, and the available sewer lines could be much closer.
Simply put, the solution for a facility that doesn't meet limits is not "just give them softer limits". Two different sections
of the Clean Water Act prohibit that. The best option for the Travel Center is to get out of the wastewater
business. Connection to a POTW would solve their compliance problems and eliminate the associated costs.
I'll put a copy of this email in the file for both NC0085952 and NC0025933. This issue will be addressed during the
permit renewals in 2020 if the Travel Center does not request a major mod before then.

Hi Charles,
The Asheville Regional Office (ARO) request the Candler Travel Center Permit NC0085952 Effluent Limitations and
Monitoring Requirements match the Days Inn West Permit NC0025933. The receiving stream Latitude and Longitude and
outfall location depicted in the permit is incorrect. The reason for the incorrect information is the receiving streams are
culverted by DOT for Hwy 40, Hwy 70 and Wiggins Rd. You will note that Days Inn has normal limits, whereas Candler
Travel has restrictive limits. I looked at the original sheet for Candler Travel; Max Haner must not have considered this.
ARO staff have field verified the outfalls and receiving stream for both facilities. The correct receiving stream for both is
George Branch, Latitude and Longitude is 35 32' 27" N/82 45' 8" W.
Please take this into consideration.
Landon's (ARO) request (email May 9):
Charles -
Linville Falls and Candler Travel Plaza are two facilities where staff are concerned that the limits may be too restrictive.
Linville Falls has had a technical assistance review and found no recommendations. I've also have Dan Boss review the
operation and he generally agreed that it could be difficult to meet the permit limits.
With regard to Candler, Linda believes the discharge may actually be to a larger stream than the permit indicates.
An thoughts on how to approach a potential re-eval. of these two facilities?
3

Thanks.
Your response:
NC0085952 (Candler Travel) discharges to a zero -flow tributary. Extending the outfall line to the mainstem of the French
Broad would probably get them relaxed limits.
