STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SEC F'INTTIONS
1. Permit fsstzing Authority
The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
2. DEM or "the Division"
Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources.
EMS
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC
1251, et. seq.
Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such
month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found
each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were
reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in. Part I of the permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of
pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the number of days the
tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part 1 of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge' is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a
calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant
calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily
Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and /or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such
year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each
day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This
limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit.

Part II
Page 2 of 14
Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration
values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in
the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples
collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This
limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sarnpled and/or measured during a calendar week
(Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the
number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the
daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the -samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part 1 of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a
calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of
pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as "Daily
Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and /or measured during a calendar year on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration
values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in
the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples
collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the
geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year. This limitation is
identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of
dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a
calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is
considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily
average" in the text of Part 1.
g•
The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar
quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part 1 of the permit.
A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March,
April through June, July through September, and October through December.

7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged
monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the
calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement' is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when
both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs
continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for
infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge
and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample
collection, or
(2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time
intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling
point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow
recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at
no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of
greater than 24 hours. In such case, effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals
evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time
of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the tirne interval between effluent
grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less than four (4) during a
24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a per od of time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be
representative of the discharge or the receiving waters.
lculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual
values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the
individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is
equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values.
For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one
(1).
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration
times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows.

1.0. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day.
However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents
the calendar day may be used for sampling.
11. Hazardous Substan.
A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section
311 of the Oean Water Act.
12. Toxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act.

3. Need to Halt or Reduce' not a Defense
It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary
to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this
permit.
4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
(I) "Bypass" means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment
facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating
mode for the facility.
(2) '°Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the
treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent
loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a
bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in
production.
b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which -does not cause effluent limitations to be
exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These
bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c. and d, of this section.
c. Notice
(I) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall
submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an
evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as
required in Part II, E. 6. of this permit. (24 hour notice).
d. Prohibition of Byp
Bypass is prohibited and the Permit issuing Authority may take enforcera
a permittee for bypass, unless:
(A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property
damage;
(B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment
facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of
equiprnent downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should
have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass
which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance;
and
(C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass,
adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it

a. Definition.
"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary
noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the
'reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent
caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment
facilities, lick of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation.
b. Effect of an upset.
An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such
technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this
condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that
noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final
administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset.
A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate,
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that
(1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of this permit.
(4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part 11, B. 2. of this
permit.
d. Burden of proof.
In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has
the burden of proof.
6. Removed Substance
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of
wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and in a manner such
as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the State or navigable
waters of the United States. The permittee shall comply with all existing federal regulations
governing the disposal of sewage sludge. Upon prornulgation of 40 CFR Part 503, any permit issued
by the Permit Issuing Authority for the utilization/disposal of sludge may be reopened and
modified, or revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable requirements at 40 CFR Part 503. The
permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part 503 Standards for the Use and Disposal of
Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the time provided in the regulation, even if the permit
is not modified to incorporate the requirement. The permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing
Authority of any significant change in its sludge use or disposal practices.
7. Power Failures
The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by DEM Regulation,
Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H,0124 Reliability, to prevent the

Permit NC0080837
Maiden WTP
Catawba County
The NPDES Unit received your permit renewal application on December 14, 1999. Thank
you for submitting this package.
The permit renewal for this facility will be assigned to a member of the NPDES Unit staff.
That staff member will contact you if further information is needed to complete the permit
renewal. Please note that the NPDES Unit has several vacant positions. This staff shortage has.
lasted for over a year and is delaying all permit renewals. Our remaining permit writers are
currently reviewing Authorizations to Construct, speculative limit requests, major permit
modifications and 201 plan updates ahead of permit. renewals. This is necessary due to a variety
of factors, including mandatory deadlines in the statutes which govern our program.
If this staff shortage delays reissua.nee of NC0080837, the existing requirements in your
permit will remain in effect until the permit is renewed (or the Division takes other action). We
appreciate your patience and understanding while we operate with a severely depleted staff. If you
have any additional questions concerning renewal of the subject permit, please contact me at

5. Ivlassf1 av Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled
and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during
such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the
pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days
the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the
permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges
are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average"
in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during
a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant
calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as 'Daily
Maximum," in Part I of the permit_
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or treasured during such
year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found
each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were
reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit.

g-
Part. II
Page 2 of 14
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of
the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month
on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week
(Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the
number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of
the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by
flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count
for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during
a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a
calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of
pollutant calculated from it is the '''Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as
"Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit,
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a
composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for
fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar year. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in
Part I of the permit.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount
of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged
over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the
sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is
identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.
The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar
quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit.
A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through
March, April through June, July through September, and October through. December..

Part II

7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded
during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling,
when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which
occurs continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow
shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow
or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of
discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of
individual sample collection, or
(2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time
intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the
sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by
use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample
collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment
system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of
flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no
greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time
of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time
intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the
detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval
between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less
than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be
representative of the discharge or the receiving waters.
9. Calculation of Mears
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of
the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric
mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual
values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be
considered to be one (1).

The subject permit expires on July 31, 2000. North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 2H.0105(e)
requires that an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit.
To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package must be sent to the Division postmarked no later than
February 2, 2000, Failure to request renewal of the permit by this date will result in a civil assessment of at least

If any wastewater discharge will occur after July 31, 2000 (or if continuation of the permit is desired), the
current permit must be renewed. Operation of wastewater treatment works or continuation of discharge after
July 31, 2000 would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and could result in assessment of civil
penalties of up to 825,000 per day.
If all wastewater discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this permit, contact Robert
Farmer of the Division's Compliance Enforcement Unit at [phone], extension 531. You may also contact

Subject: NPDES Permit No. NC0080837
Town of Maiden WTP
Catawba County, NC
Dear Bumgarner:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0080837 was
issued on July 24, 1995 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of
this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and
the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it
is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular
importance is Page 4.
Page 4 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) must not
exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed
"Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies,
sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your
discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required
monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the
reporting forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not
received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail
to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting
form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form.
It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, and the
original and one copy be submitted as required.
The remaining Parts of the Permit set forth definitions,
general conditions and special conditions applicable to the
operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s).
The conditions include special reporting requirements in the event
of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc.
Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater
treatment plant operator if you are operating wastewater treatment

facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment
facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or
discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment
facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil
penalty of up to $10,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties)
may be assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that
you are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the
Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A Consent
Order may be necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed. Renewal
requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days
prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of
your Permit. This date is set forth on Page 1 of the Permit. Also
note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If you, as the
Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that
the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to
advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read the
Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville if
you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to
providing any assistance.

4. Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amen
33 USC 1251, et. seq.
Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly
Average" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily
discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found
by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this
sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as
"Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged
during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight
of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is
identified as "Daily Maxitnum," in Part I of the permit.

Pan II
Page 2 of 14
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges
sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the
weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average"
in Pan I of the permit.
b. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the
daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted
by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average
monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for
samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly
Average" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit,
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum
of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided
by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week
(arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values), The daily concentration value is
equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the
arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that
calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal conform bacteria is the geometric
mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is
identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during
a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration
of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified
as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of
the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar
year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the
daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration
of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted
by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average
yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples
collected during a calendar year.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the munimum allowable
amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge
averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a
calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the
discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.

Part II
Page 3 of 14
The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a
calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I
of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through
March, April through June, July through September, and October through December.
7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow,
averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows
recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of
sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility
which occurs continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the
facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when
there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device.
8. Types of Samples.
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of
discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of
individual sample collection, or
(2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the
time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing
the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be
determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval
between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily
flow at the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional
to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be
no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall
be no greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a
detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be
collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in
number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in
no case may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6)
hours nor the number of samples less than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not
exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually.
9. Calculation of Mans
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the sumrna on of the
individual values divided by the number of individual values.

Part Il
Page 4 of 14
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the
product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values.
The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms
of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of
zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each
concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective
flows.
10. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next
day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that
reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
11. Hazardous Substance
A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant
to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
12. Tpxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a l) of the Clean Wa
Act.

3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense
It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been
necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the
condition of this permit.
4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
(I) "Bypass"" means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a
treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or
established or operating mode for the facility.
(2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage
to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial.
and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur
in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss
caused by delays in production.
b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations
to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient
operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c. and d. of
this section.
c. Notice
(I) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it
shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass;
including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass
as required in Part II, E. 6. of this permit. (24-hour notice).
d. Prohibition of Bypass
(l) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action

property damage;

Part Il
Page 9 of 14
(b) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary
treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal
periods of equipment downtime: This condition is not satisfied if adequate
backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable
engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal
periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and
(c) The permitteetsubmitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering
its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the
three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsets;.
a. Definition.
"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and
temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of
factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include
noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment
facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or
improper operation.
b. Effect of an upset.
An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for
noncompliance with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the
requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during
administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an
action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset.
A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate,
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence
that:
(a) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(b) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated and
(c) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part 11, E. 6. (b) (B) of
this permit.

control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-21.1 and in a
manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the
State or navigable waters of the United States. The permittee shall comply with all existing
federal regulations governing the disposal of sewage sludge. Upon promulgation of 40
CFR Part 503, any permit issued by the Permit Issuing Authority for the disposal of sludge
may be reopened and modified, or revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable
requirements at 4L1 CFR Part 503. The permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part
503 Standards for the Use and Disposal of Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the
time provided in the regulation, even if the permit is not modified to incorporate the
requirement. The permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant
change in its sludge use or disposal practices.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The applicant, Town of Maiden, is requesting a permit to
discharge supernatant produced from the settling of alum sludge at
their water treatment plant. This proposed discharge is a result
of the problems that the backwashing of the water plant filters has
caused the wastewater plant. During the backwashing operation the
slug of water and alum entering the wastewater plant is causing an
upset hydraulically as well as functionally.
There did not appear to be any problems with the proposed
treatment facilities or the discharge location that would hender
the issuance of the permit.
It is recommended that the permit be issued and. include any
monitoring deemed. necessary by the Technical Review Group.

Description of Treatment Process or Collection System:
Maiden Wastewater Treatment Plant
r,r1n7
(Afc cePr OF DiVRONmps,r
MD NA -
4.U1
The Maiden wastewater treatment plant consists of a Pure Oxygen Treatment System. The
process works in two phases: preliminary treatment & secondary treatment,
In preliminary treatment, screenings are removed by a bar screen and grit is taken out by a grit
removal system. The water is then pumped via a pump station to the treatment unit. This starts
the secondary treatment (biological) phase.
In secondary treatment, wastewater is treated by microorganisms. Our treatment unit consists of
two aeration zones, final clarifier, and disinfection, En the aeration zones, the bugs
(microorganisms) are mixed with the incoming wastewater and a biomass is formed, Oxygen gas
is supplied to the treatment units to provide air for the biomass. The oxygen is shipped to our
plant in liquid form and converted to gas through a vaporization system. The bugs use oxygen
like humans. While passing through the aeration zones, the bugs consume (eat) the waste from
the water. After aeration, the water passes into the secondary clarifier, The water and solids
(biomass) separate during this part of the treatment phase, The solids are returned to aeration
(this starts the process over again) by an airlift blower or wasted into an aerobic digester for
storage until removal from the plant, The water from the clarifier moves to the disinfection stage
where chlorine gas is fed into the water to reduce pathogens (disease causing bacteria) to state
required levels.
Once disinfected, the water is discharged into Clark's Creek. Our excess sludge is transported to
the Hickory Regional Compost Facility in Hickory, NC.

Town af. "widen Ct /lection 5Sv temp
The Town of Maiden has approximately 26.5 miles of sanitary sewer lines and seven pump
stations, Only six of the pump stations are in service~ The public works staff checks and
maintains the sewer lines while the wastewater staff takes care of the pump stations. At present
time, the pump stations are checked at least. three times per week with Wendover Station being
checked daily (Monday through Friday). All of the Town's Pump Stations have call systems that
alert the wastewater plant staff in the event of an emergency. The high priority sewer lines are
checked on a routine basis. Preventative maintenance is done on the collection system on a
regular basis, This mostly consists of flushing the lines and sending the root cutter down the
lines, Each pump station has a generator for standby power in the event of outages. The
generators are checked and tested every month.
During this fiscal year budget (2002-2003), the Town began an aggressive attack on
inflow/infiltration on the collection system. The Town smoke tested the entire sewer system
performed flow monitoring at various points with meters supplied by NCDENR Loans & Grants
Section, and relined 3,400 linear feet of sewer lines & 9 manholes. More fiinding has been
included in the 2003-2004 fiscal year budget for more relining of sewer lines & manholes. Also,
the wastewater plant will be adding a new field sampler with flow monitoring capabilities. This
will give us two samplers that can monitor flow and will enable the sewer crews to continue to
track down inflow/infiltration on our system and develop a CIP (Capital Improvement Plan) for
future repairs.
laiden Wat r Treatment Plant Alum Basin
The Maiden Water Plant has a discharge perrrut for an alum basin. The basin discharges water
into the Town Creek, The alum basin is used for the water plants filters washes and basin
cleanings. The filter washes and/or basin cleanings flow to the basin by gravity and are allowed
to settle overnight. The solids settle to the bottom and clear water remains on top. The clear
water is pumped to the creek and the solids are pumped to drying beds. After drying, the alum
sludge is transported to the Catawba County Landfill for disposal..
II. Performance
SUMMARY OF SYSTEM PERFORMANCE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2002-2003
Meriden Wastewater Treatment Plant
The wastewater plant operated very well for the past fiscal year. The Plant had two reported
violations for the past year. The violations were a weekly violation for Total Suspended Solids
and removal rate violations for BOD & TSS. Most of the problems encountered at the plant
during the past year were typical (equipment failure). The wastewater staff performed most of
the repairs. The Town is currently working with McGill & Associates to upgrade our wastewater
treatment facilities, The collection system maintenance crew has been working to identify our
Inflow/Infiltration problems. Several problem areas have been found and repairs are underway,

Violations cal year 2002-2003)
February 2003:
April 2003:
Total Suspended Solids (Weekly Limit)
The violation was for violating our permit limit (weekly) for Total
Suspended Solids (TSS). The clarifier skimming device failed the last
week of the month and we had to switch to the other treatment unit. It
takes several days for the treatment unit to come online and put out
quality effluent. Sludge (seed) from the Newton & Delta Apparel
WWTP's was brought in to speed up the unit coming online, As a result,.
our samples were out of compliance for that week. Everything was back
within permit limits. in March '03.
85% Removal for BOD & TSS Limit
We have a removal rate of 85% for BOD & TSS in our permit, This
means the effluent monthly average for BOD & TSS must be at least
85% less than the influent average. Our influent values were low for the
month of April due to the excessive amount of inflow/infiltrationfrom
the heavy rains our area experienced that month, The intlow/infiltration
causes our influent flow to increase and dilutes the influent waste
strength,. The Town is currently attacking the Inflow/ln.filtration
problems on our sewer collection system.
Maiden Water Treat lent Plant
The alum basin operated very well for the past fiscal year, No major problems were encountered..
The biggest area addressed at the basin during the past year was the sludge. Southern Soil
Builders dredged the basin and pumped the alum sludge into bags placed in the drying beds. The
bags contain the sludge', but allow the water to dramn. out back to the basin. After further drying in
the bags. the sludge will be transported to the Catawba. County Landfill.
Violations (For the fiscal year 2002-2003)
November 2002:
February 2003;
Metals Analysis
Sample for Aluminum & Iron analysis was collected for the week of
11/22/02, but not transferred to the proper lab bottle and sent for
analysis. In the fiiture. Chain of Custodies will be doubled checked at
the plant when sarnples arrive in our lab to verify all necessary bottles
are filled for analysis.
Total Suspended Solids & Settleable Solids
The violation was for Total Suspended Solids and Settleable Solids for
2/21/03, Prior to sample collection, the basin was drawn down to make
room for filter washing by the water plant operators. When the filter
water entered the basin, the alum sludge in the basin was pushed into the
wet well. When the pumps were switched on for pumping to the creek
and sample collection on 2/2.1, the mud in the well was being pumped.
When the wastewater operators arrived at the creek to get the samples,
the pumps were turned off. The water plant staff was informed not to
remove all the water from the basin to prevent alum sludge from being
pushed into the well.

Maiden Collection System
There were no major operational problems with the sewer collection system for the past fiscal
year. The sewer crews have a preventative maintenance program setup for maintaining the lines
and right of ways. As stated earlier, the major problem the Town has is the lnflow/Infiltrauon on
the sewer lines, The Town has begun an aggressive attack on the inflow/infiltration on the
system. The entire system has been smoked tested, main trunk lines flow monitored, and relining
of approximately 3,400 feet of gravity line & 9 manholes, More funding is included in the next
fiscal year budget for relining of lines & manholes, and replacement of the Cemetery line,
Spills/Overflows (For the fiscal year 2002-2003)

Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-16 I 7
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed
justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the reasonableness
of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure for contesting the
accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment letter. Because a
remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a request
must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a
stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in dispute. You must execute and
return to this office the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement
which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b) was
wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the
violation;
(e) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please submit: this information to the attention of:
Water Quality Section Chief
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

Please note that all information presented in support of a request for remission must

decision in the matter of the remission request. His response will provide details
regarding case status, directions for payment and provision for further appeal of the
penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions. Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director and
therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in
support of your request for remission.
OR
3. Submit a written request for an administrative hearing;
If you wish to contest any statement in this assessment letter, you must request an
administrative hearing. This request must be in the form of a written petition to

Description of Treatment Process or Collection System:
Maiaen WastewaterTreatment Plant
The Maiden wastewater treatment plant consists of a Pure Oxygen Treatment System. The process works in two
phases: preliminary treatment & secondary treatment.
In preliminary treatment, screenings are removed by a bar screen and grit is taken out by a grit removal system. The
water is then pumped via a pump station to the treatment unit, This starts the secondary treatment (biological) phase,
in secondary treatment, the water is treated by microorganisms. Our treatment unit consists of two aeration zones,
final clarifier, and disinfection, In the aeration zones, the bugs (microorganisms) are mixed with the incoming
wastewater and a biomass is formed. Oxygen gas is supplied to the treatment units to provide air for the biomass,
The oxygen is shipped to our plant in liquid form and converted to gas through a vaporization system The bugs use
oxygen like humans, While passing through the aeration zones, the bugs consume (eat) the waste from the water,
After aeration, the water passes into the secondary clarifier, The water and solids (biomass) separate during this part
of the treatment phase, The solids are returned to aeration (this starts the process over again) by an airlift blower or
wasted into an aerobic digester for storage until removal from the plant. The water from the clarifier moves to the
disinfection stage where chlorine gas is fed into the water to reduce pathogens (disease causing bacteria) to state
required levels
Once disinfected, the water is discharged into Clark's Creek. Our excess sludge is transported to the Hickory
Regional Compost Facility in Hickory, NC.
Town of Maiden Collection System
The Town of Maiden has approximately 26,5 miles of sanitary sewer lines and five pump stations, Only four of the
pump stations are in service, The public works staff checks and maintains the sewer lines while the wastewater staff
takes care of the pump stations, The pump stations are checked Monday through Friday every week. Public works
maintains the collection system. The high priority sewer lines are checked on a routine basis. Preventative
maintenance is done on the collection system on a regular basis. This mostly consists of flushing the lines and
sending the root cutter down the lines. Each pump station has a generator for standby power in the event of outages.

The Maiden Water Plant has a discharge permit for an alum basin, The basin discharges
water into the Town Creek, The alum basin is used for the water plants filters washes and
basin cleanings. The fiber washes andior basin cleanings flow to the basin by gravity and are
allowed to settle overnight, The solids settle to the bottom and clear water remains on top.
The clear water is pumped to the creek and the solids are pumped to drying beds,
II Performance
SUMMARY OF SYSTEM PERFORMANCE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2000-2001
Maiden Wastewater Treatment lant
Overall, the plant operated very efficient for the past calendar year. Some of the problems
that were encountered include: equipment failures, bad weather, and high flows from heavy
rains. The wastewater staff repaired the majority of the equipment failures. A new clarifier
device (skimmer) was constructed and installed on Treatment Module #1 by Jim Meyers &
Sons. A feasibility study on the wastewater plant by McGill & Associates was completed
and presented to Town council in May 2000. The study evaluated the wastewater plant and
outlined suggested alternatives to upgrade the pant to meet future needs of the Town and
State requirements. At present time, the Town is proceeding with Alternative #2 frorn the
study. McGill & Associates are completing the required items to submit an application for
grants and/or loan money from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality Loans & Grants
Section. Our fiscal year 2001-2002 budget included a camera system for the sewer system
and money to perform some flow monitoring on the Town's sewer system. These items will
help us to start correcting our Inflow/Infiltration problems within our system.
Violations (For the fiscal year 2000-2001)
August 2000: Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD).
The wastewater plant violated the weekly limit for BOD set by the State
in our permit. This violation resulted from a slug loading that hit the
plant, The wastewater staff were unsuccessful in tracking the chemical
back through the sewer lines,
February 2001: Total Cyanide & Missed Sarnples Violation:
1, A Total Nitrogen & Total Phosphorous sample was missed for this
month. The missed samples were an oversight on our part. Our new
discharge permit took effect in January 2001 and our sampling
schedule changed. Extra samples were collected during March to
make up for the missed samples. Note: Our permit contains no
limit for Total Nitrogen & Total Phosphorous. We just monitor
it with monthly samples.
A cyanide sample was missed for this month, This was due to the
commercial laboratory failing to analyze the sample within holding
time. The sample was collected and delivered to Pace labs within
hold time. Pace failed to recognize the sample needed to be analyzed
within two days. Steps were taken with Pace to ensure this didn't
occur again. Pace collects samples every week from our plant. If
they fail to stop by for whatever reason, the wastewater staff hand
delivers the sample to the lab, An extra cyanide sample was
collected during March to make up the missed sample.

Cyanide monthly limit violation. The permit limit for cyanide was
exceeded for this month. The sample collected on 2/7/01 exceeded
the daily maximum allowed for cyanide. We feel the high result was
due to interferences from chlorine. We reviewed our Long Term
Monitoring data and Pretreatment data from our industries and notice
any extremely high cyanide values coming into the plant. Our
laboratory technician contacted Pace Labs to verify the proper
collection technique. During the month of March, we collected
cyanide samples before chlorination and after chlorination (our
regular sampling point) to determine if any interferences were
occurring. After reviewing the data from the extra samples and how
the samples were collected, we determined that small trash or
particles that was collecting on our sample pump was causing the
problems. The cyanide samples are now collected as the water is
flowing over the weir instead of at the sampler.
Maiden Water Treatment Plant
The alum basin operated very well for the past calendar year. No major problems were
encountered. Our next fiscal year budget includes money for alum sludge removal from the
basin. The sludge will be pressed and allowed to dry on sand beds at the water plant. Once
dry, the sludge will be hauled to the County landfill for disposal.
Violations (For the fiscal year 2OOQ-2OO1)
There were no reported violations of any kind for the Water` Treatment Plant Alum Basin,

Description of Treatment Process or Collection. System:
!Garden Wastewater Treatment Plant
The Maiden wastewater treatment plant consists ofa Pure Oxygen Treatment System.. The process works in two
phases: preliminary treatment & secondary treatment,
In preliminary treatment, screenings are removed by a bar screen and grit is taken out by a grit removal system, The
water is then pumped via a pump station to the treatment unit, This starts the secondary treatment (biological) phase,
In secondary treatment, the water is treated by microorganisms, Our treatment unit consists of two aeration zones„
final clarifier, and disinfection. In the aeration zones, the bugs (microorganisms) are mixed with the incoming
wastewater and a biomass is formed. Oxygen gas is supplied to the treatment units to provide air for the biomass..
The oxygen is shipped to our plant in liquid form and converted to gas through a vaporization system. The bugs use
oxygen like humans, While passing through the aeration zones, the bugs consume (eat) the waste from the water,
After aeration, the water passes into the secondary clarifier. The water and solids (biomass) separate during this part
of the treatment phase, The solids are returned to aeration (this starts the process over again) by an airlift blower or
wasted into an aerobic digester for storage until removal from the plant. The water from the clarifier moves to the
disinfection stage where chlorine gas is fed into the water to reduce pathogens (disease causing bacteria) to state
required levels,
Once disinfected, the water is discharged into Clark's Creek, Our excess sludge is transported to the Hickory
Regional Compost Facility in Hickory, NC.
Town ofMaiden Collection ,System
The Town of Maiden has approximately 26.5 miles of sanitary sewer lines and five pump stations, Only four ofthe
pump stations are in service, The public works staff checks and maintains the sewer lines while the wastewater staff
takes care of the pump stations. The pump stations are checked Monday through Friday every week, Public works
maintains the collection system, The high priority sewer lines are checked on a routine basis. Preventative
maintenance is done on the collection system on a regular basis, This mostly consists of flushing the lutes and
sending the root cutter down the lines. Each pump station has a generator for standby power in the event of outages.
The generators are checked and tested every month.

Maiden Water Trerrtrtrent Plant Alum Basin
The Maiden Water Plant has a discharge permit for an alum basin. The basin discharges
water into the Town Creek. The alum basin is used for the water plants filters washes and
basin cleanings. The filter washes and/or basin cleanings flow to the basin by gravity and are
allowed to settle overnight. The solids settle to the bottom and clear water remains on top.
The clear water is pumped to the creek and the solids are pumped to drying beds.

SLUDGE DISPOSAL
Sludge from the settling basin is dried in the sludge drying beds. Options for sludge disposal
are being investigated. Lincoln county's landfill is a possible destination for disposal.
EFFLUENT/RECEIVING STREAM
The facility was not backwashing at the time of the inspection. The receiving stream was not
evaluated.
SEWER OVERFLOW
Please be advised that pursuant to Part II, Section E of your NPDES perrnit, and North
Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) I 5A 2B .0506 (a)(2), any failure of a collection system,
pumping station or treatment facility resulting in a bypass without. treatment of all or any portion of
the wastewater shall be reported to the central office or the appropriate regional office (Mooresville
Regional Office 704-633-1699) as soon as possible but no later than 24 hours from the time the
permittee became a:ware of the 'bypass. A written report shall also be provided within five (5) days
of the time of the incident. The written report shall contain a description of the
bypass, and its cause; the period of the bypass, including exact dates and times, and if the bypass
has not been corrected, the anticipated time it is expected to continue; and steps taken (or planned)
to reduce, eliminate, and prevent recurrence of similar events.
Any spill that reaches surface waters (Le. any spill. that reaches any water already present in
a conveyance, stream, ditch, etc...) or any spill greater than 1,000 gallons on the ground that does not
reach surface waters must be reported.
An adequate spill response for those spills reaching surface waters should include an
evaluation downstream of the point at which the spill entered surface waters to determine if a fish
kill occurred. The evaluation should also include the collection of upstream dissolved oxygen and
pH measurements for background information and dissolved oxygen and pH measurements at
multiple points downstream of the entry point to document any negative impact. Failure to report
the bypass of a collection system, pumping station or treatment facility subjects violators to penalties
of up to $25,000 per day per violation.

ater Quality
February 17, 1998
Attached please find a copy of the 1997 water quality study on Maiden Lake conducted by the
Environmental Science Branch. This study was prompted by a telephone conversation one of our staff
had with Mark Hahn, Plant Operator for the City of Maiden's water treatment plant. According to Mr.
Hahn, highly elevated turbidity levels were still a major problem for the lake. The purpose of this study
was to characterize current water quality conditions and identify probable sources of the elevated
tubidity values.
Results of this study indicated that the lake is still experiencing problems with sedimentation. A likely
source of some of the sediment load is the Diddley Dadburn Tree Plantation which is located upstream
of the lake. Other upstream sources of sediment are also indicated. Depending on the level of local
interest, you may wish to consider this area for a potential 319 project.
If you have any questions based on the attached report or if you are in need of additional information or
assistance, please telephone me at 919/733-6510.

Maiden Lake 1997 Study
Catawba County, North Carolina
Subbasin 030835
February 17, 1998
Maiden Lake is a fourteen acre reservoir which serves as the primary water supply for the
City of Maiden, located in Catawba County. The lake is fed by Maiden Creek, which is a
small tributary to Pinch Gut Creek, The drainage area of the lake is approximately 16
mi2. Land use in the watershed is divided between agriculture and forested areas. There
are no permitted point source dischargers in the watershed. From the source of Maiden
Creek to the lake dam the waters are classified as WS-H.
Previous monitoring of Maiden Lake has included physical and chemical sampling in
1990 and 1992 as part of the Ambient. Lakes Monitoring Program (See Appendix A for
1990 through 1993 monitoring data). Turbidity values ranging from 9 to 60 NTU's and
low secchi depths (less than one meter) were recorded for both sampling events. In
addition to ambient monitoring of the lake, a study was conducted on March 18, 1993
(Division of Environmental Management. 1993. Maiden Creek Investigation, Catawba
County). The study was prompted by complaints from the City of Maiden over
sedimentation problems. Sediment was affecting the water plant's treatment ability as
well as decreasing the holding capacity of the reservoir. The City indicated that a
potential source of the sediment was a land clearing operation on the property of the
Diddley Dadburn Tree Plantation. The property was located less than two miles
upstream of Maiden Lake along Maiden Creek.
The 1993 study included a water quality monitoring station above and below the Diddley
Dadburn Tree Plantation and two stations on. Maiden Lake (Figure 1). Sampling was
conducted during the melt of a recent and heavy snowfall. Turbid water was entering the
Creek from the subject property at numerous locations, and there were very turbid waters
in Maiden. Creek upstream and downstream of the property. Physical and chemical
sampling was performed at all four sites. Benthic macroinvertebrate and fish community
structure analyses were performed at only the sites above and below the land clearing
operation.
During the study, visual observations of Maiden Creek at the upstream and downstream
sites indicated elevated levels of turbidity, colored with reddish -orange sediment typical
of a small piedmont stream receiving red clay inputs. Chemical data indicated an
increase in sediment loading below the tree plantation. However, it appeared that other
non -point sources located further upstream were also contributors of sediment.
Biological evaluations indicated degradation of the entire watershed, while the fishery
survey showed the area downstream of the plantation to be slightly more degraded.
Results of the study, while inconclusive, did suggest that the tree plantation was a likely
contributor to the sediment load received by Maiden Lake..

Purpose of 1997 Study
In March of 1997, as part of a telephone survey investigating water quality concerns, the
City of Maiden's water treatment plant was contacted. According to the Plant Operator,
Mark Hahn, high turbidity levels still remained a major problem for the lake, sometimes
reaching 1,000 NTU''s following a rain event. The purpose of this study was to
characterize current water quality conditions and identify probable sources of the elevated
turbidity values observed by the water treatment facility.
Monitoring
Maiden Lake was sampled three times during the Summer of 1997, The same four
stations as in the 1993 study were monitored. Sampling was conducted according to
Table 1 below.

Rainfall
Rainfall data specific for the City of Maiden was not available. On the days of sampling
there was no evidence of rainfall within the previous 48 hours. According to the State
Climate Office, rainfall data collected from three neighboring towns (Catawba, Conover,
Lincolnton) showed no rainfall 48 hours prior to the sampling events. However,
according to treatment plant operators there had been a very heavy rainfall three days
prior to the first sampling event. The Summer of 1997 was very dry in terms of rainfall
across the entire state. Major rain events within Catawba County were few.
Visual Observations
Lake: The lake appeared extremely turbid during the first sampling event. The secchi
disk was not visible upon entering the water with an average secchi measurement of 0.1
meter. Bottom. samples collected approximately one meter from the bottom were similar
to the color of "butterscotch pudding", suggesting the settling of sediment. The water
treatment plant has observed that increased turbidity occurs following heavy rainfalls.
During the last two sampling events turbidity did not appear as high as compared to the
first event. However, the water still appeared turbid with secchi measurements between
0.5 and 0.6 meters.
Creek: Differences in turbidity were observed between the upstream and downstream
stations, with the station below the tree farm appearing obviously more turbid.

Results
Data collected for physical and chemical parameters during 1997 study are shown in
Appendix A.
pil: The average pH at all four stations was slightly acidic at 6.5 standard units (s.u.).
pH ranged from 5.9 s.u. to 7.1 s.u. These observations are within the normal range for a
water body in this area of the state.
Conductivity: Conductivity measurements provide an estimate of the dissolved solids
content of a water sample. The natural conductance range in North Carolina streams is
from 12 to 9(1 µmhosfcm (NCDEM Standard Operating Procedures Manual Physical and
Chemical Monitoring, 1986). Conductivities along Maiden Creek and Lake ranged from
24 to 41 µmhos/cm, averaging 35 mhos/cm.
Dissolved Oxygen: Surface D.Q. values at all the stations were above the state standard
of a minimum of 5.0 mg/1 for an instantaneous value. Surface D.O. values ranged from
7.4 to 9.2 mg/I, with a mean of 8.1 mgfl. The slightly elevated value of 9.2 mg/1 occurred
at lake station CTBML1A during the June sampling event. The water was slightly
saturated with D.O. with a value of 112 percent,
Phytoplankton and Chlorophyll a: Chlorophyll a samples were collected at the lake
stations. Chlorophyll a levels ranged from 6 to 38 µgfl. There were no violations of the
state water quality standard of 40 µ.g/1.
Phytoplankton samples were analyzed from Maiden Lake, when elevated chlorophyll a
values were present. The first sample analyzed was collected on June 17 at station
CTBMLIA, where a chlorophyll a value of 25 µg/1 was reported. The dominant species
present included the filamentous cyanophyte (blue-green) Anabaena wisconsinense and
the ubiquitous cryptophyte, Cryptomonas erosa. The green alga Scenedesmus bijuga was
also present as well as large amounts of sediment.
A chlorophyll a value of 38 µg/1 was recorded at station CTBMLI during the July
sampling event. Phytoplankton analysis showed high numbers of the
chloromonadophyte, Ganyostomum semen, which is likely responsible for the high
Chlorophyll a value, This species is able to tolerate low ranges of pH and is frequently
found in waters with pH values of 4.5 to 7.7 s.u. It is often found in reservoirs with a
moderately high phosphorus supply. Also present was the dinoflagellate, Ceratium
hirundinella.
A filamentous algae was observed to be growing on the surface of rocks along the banks
with a small amount observed in open water. A sample of the algae was collected at
station CTBMLIA during the June sampling event. Analysis revealed filamentous
greens, mainly Zygnema sp. with some Spirogyra sp. Filaments of Zygnema form green.
clumps and floating mats, but unlike Spirogyra, they do not form the large 'balloon -like"
masses and they are lighter green in color. There were no indications of problematic
algal mats.

AGPT: The objective of the Algal Growth Potential Test (AGPT) is to assess a
waterbody's potential for supporting algal biomass and to determine whether algal growth
is limited by nitrogen, by phosphorus, or co -limited by both nutrients. When the AGPT
control maximum standing crop (MSC) is > 5.0 mg/1, sufficient quantities of biologically
available algal growth limiting constituents are present to support algal growth in excess
of levels equivalent to 57 1.tg/1 Chlorophyll a (Raschke, R.L., "Use of the Algal Growth
Potential Test for Data Assessment and Lake Classification", 1988).
An AGPT sample was collected at station CTBML1 on August 21, 1997. An MSC of 6.3
mg/1 was determined, indicating a potential for algal growth. The results of the nutrient
limitation testing suggested that Maiden Lake was nitrogen limited.
Nutrients: Nutrient samples collected from Maiden Creek generally contained low to
moderate levels of total phosphorus with a mean of 0.02 mg/1 at both creek stations.
Total nitrogen levels were also moderate ranging from 0.44 to 0.54 mg/1, with a mean of
0.50 mg/l. A comparison of nutrient values at the downstream station with those from
the upstream station did not show a pattern of increased nutrient values below the tree
plantation (Table 2).
Samples taken from the lake were moderate to elevated for total phosphorus, ranging
from 0.02 to 0.06 mg/1, with one exception. A sample taken from station CTBML1 in
June was extremely elevated at 0.77 mgll. Nitrogen was also greatly elevated. These
greatly elevated levels may he due to a sediment slug coming through as a result of the
heavy rainfall three days prior. Excluding the June elevated values, total nitrogen levels
in the lake ranged from 0.29 to 0.54 mg/1, with a mean value of 0.44 mg/l.

Nutrient loading during low flow conditions for total phosphorus and nitrogen were
calculated at both the stream stations for each sampling event (Figures 2 and 3). Loading
of total phosphorus and nitrogen was higher at the downstream station on each sampling
occasion.

Metals: Analyses of metal samples collected found zinc, copper, iran and manganese
be above laboratory detection limits (Table 3).
Zinc - Two samples out of twelve were found to exceed the water quality action level of
50 ttg/1 for zinc. Both samples measured 55 jag/1 and were taken from the lake stations in
July. Zinc is generally associated with urban runoff and/or a point source discharge.
Zinc has no known adverse physiological effects upon man except at very high
concentrations. For esthetic considerations, high concentrations of zinc in domestic water
are undesirable.
Copper - Two of the twelve samples analyzed were above the laboratory detection limit
of 0.2 mg/1. One sample was from the lake and one from the creek measuring 2.5 and 2.1
tig/I, respectively. These levels were well below the water quality action level of 7.0
g/l.
Iron - All the lake samples analyzed for iron were well in exceedance of the water quality
action level of 1 mg/l. Data collected from the first sampling event shows an upstream to
downstream gradient with the concentration increasing towards the downstream darn
station. A possible explanation may be the sediment takes longer to settle out within the
lake and thus becomes more concentrated. Iron within Maiden Lake and Creek is not
surprising because of it is found naturally in the soil of this region of the state. As far as
is known humans suffer no harmful effects from drinking waters containing iron. Iran
does impart a taste to water which is detectable at very low concentrations.
Manganese - All the samples collected except those from station CTBMCO2 contained
levels of manganese above the laboratory detection limit of 10 ttg/1. All were well below
the water quality action level of 200 ps/1, with the highest value measured to be 56 p.g/I.
As with iron, an upstream to downstream gradient was recorded for the first sampling
event. Manganese frequently appears in surface waters as the result of decaying
vegetation, in waters with acid pH values, and acidic waters from coal mine drainage.
Manganese in exceedance of 150 lig/1 in water supplies is undesirable due to
objectionable tastes and brownish staining of laundry.

With the exceptions of Iron and Manganese, levels of the other metals showed little
fluctuation between stations with no upstream to downstream gradient. apparent. Metal
levels were consistent with other areas of the state that are not impacted by point source
dischargers (NCDEM-Basinwide Assessment Report, Catawba River, 1994).

Hardness: The hardness of water reflects the nature of the geological formations with
which it has been in contact and is generally determined by the geological formations
surrounding the water body. Because geological formations are generally constant,
hardness is usually a stable characteristic. Exceptions can arise with some types of
industrial sources such as mining operations, inorganic chemical operations, etc. which
can cause fluctuations.
Hardness values at all four stations were consistent, showing Iittle fluctuation. The
values were low ranging from 8 to 23 mg/1 with a mean of 15 rng/l. These values are.
consistent with other values for this area.
Turbidity: The level of turbidity is determined by the amount of suspended matter such
as clay, silt, finely divided organic and inorganic matter, soluble colored organic
compounds, and plankton and other microscopic organisms.
Two violations of the state water quality standard of 50 Nephelometric Turbidity Units
(NTU) were observed. Both of the violations occurred at lake stations during the June
sampling event. The values were 70 and 75 NT[J's at stations CTBML1A and CTBML1,
respectively. Other turbidity values for the lake were moderate ranging from 13 to 23
NTU's. Stream turbidity values were higher at the downstream station with a mean of 16
NTU's than the upstream station with a mean of 6.9 NTU's.
Solids: Total solids and total suspended solids both showed increases at the downstream
creek station compared to levels at the upstream site. Total solids levels on the creek
were moderate at all four stations ranging from 42 to 70 mg/1. The lake stations showed
similar levels, ranging from 45 to 62 mg/1, with the exception of the first sampling event
where levels were elevated to 110 and 120 mg l at stations CTBML1 and CTBML1A,
respectively,
Total suspended solids were at law to moderate levels for the July and August sampling
events, ranging from 2 to 15 mg/l. Levels during the June sampling event were elevated
at the lake stations, with values of 34 and 38 mg/1, stations CTBML1 and CTBML1A,
respectively.
Figures 4 and 5 show loading of total and total suspended solids in Maiden Creek under
low flow conditions. The chart indicates an increase in loading of both total and
suspended solids at the downstream station (CTBMC01) from the upstream station
(CTBMCO2)..

Conclusions
A direct comparison between the 1993 study data with that of 1997 can not be made due
to the differences in climatogical conditions between study years. It is probable that
sediment loading would increase as a result of a stormwater event. Therefore, a
difference in water quality conditions would be expected.
Maiden Creek and Lake continue to suffer from sedimentation problems. Based on
differences between upstream and downstream data and visual observations, the Diddley
Dadburn Tree Plantation appears to be a contributor of sediment to Maiden Creek and
Lake. The data also suggest that additional loading of sediment is coming from sources
upstream of the tree farm. This study was conducted during a "dry" summer. Therefore,
the impacts of the tree farm, as well as other sources of impact under "worse" conditions
(stormwater events) are not known.
Recommendations
Results of this study confirm concerns expressed by the City of Maiden that additional
controls on sediment in Maiden Lake's watershed are warranted. Funding sources should
be identified to locate all sources of sediment entering this relatively small watershed,
The Management Planning/Development Unit might be instrumental in fostering local
and nonpoint source agency support and in identifying the needed funding for a sediment
management feasibility study, BMP's, sediment controls and/or stream restoration.
