Dear Mr. Wood:
Chapter 143, North Carolina General Statutes, authorizes and
directs the Environmental Management Commission of the Department
of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources to protect and
preserve the water and air resources of the State. The Division
of Water Quality has the delegated authority to enforce adopted
pollution control rules. This letter is a standard notification
and is intended to advise you of the legal requirements under
North Carolina law.
Based upon a review of your groundwater compliance
monitoring data submitted on January 27,1997 as a requirement of
the subject permit, the Division has reason to believe that the
permitted activities have resulted in the groundwater standards
being exceeded. The standards can be found at 15A NCAC 2L.
Condition No. I(4) of your permit states:
The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee
of the responsibility for damages to surface or groundwaters
resulting from the operation of this facility.

Commission Rule 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d) states:
Any person conducting or controlling an activity which
results in an increase in the concentration of a substance
in excess of the groundwater standards as a result of
activities conducted under the authority of a permit issued
by the state, shall, where concentrations are detected at or
beyond the review boundary demonstrate, through predictive
calculations or modeling, that natural site conditions,
facility design and operational controls will prevent a
violation of standards at the, compliance boundary; or submit
a plan for alteration of existing site conditions, facility
design or operational controls that will prevent a violation
at the compliance boundary, and implement that plan upon its
approval by the Director. You are also directed to sample
the water supply well which serves the Bowers residences for
volatile and semi -volatile organic compounds using the
Approved Analytical Methods for Groundwater Analyses (see
attachment). The modeling information or plan for
alteration, and the laboratory results for the Bowers well
must be submitted within thirty (60) days of receipt of this
letter.
Any violation of 15A NCAC 2L may subject you to a civil
penalty assessment under the authority of G.S. 143-215.6A of up
to $10,000 per rule violation. Each day that the violation
continues may be considered a separate violation. Failure to
respond within the time specified and to voluntarily achieve
compliance may result in a recommendation for enforcement, the
issuance of a Special Order against you under the authority of
G.S. 143-215.2, and/or revocation of your permit.

File No. RV 93-070
NPDES Permit No. NC0029483
Stanly County
On June 14, 1993, Mr. James Misenheimer requested that NPDES Permit No. NC0029483 be
rescinded due to your facility being converted to a low pressure pipe wastewater system covered under
Stanly County Subsurface Permit WQ0006168. The copy of your request was forwarded from our
Mooresville Regional Office to our Central Office along with their verification of non -discharge. The
paper work was mishandled and the request was never responded to. Later, a civil penalty was mistakenly
assessed against Stanly Co. Schools - Endy Elementary School because renewal of their NPDES permit
was not made at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the permit. Due to this fact, your civil penalty
assessment RV 93-070 is hereby remitted and your case closed. Also, as per your request, NPDES
Permit No, NC0029483 is hereby rescinded.
If in the future, you determine that you wish to have a discharge, you must first apply for and
receive a new NPDES Permit. Discharging without a valid NPDES permit will subject the discharger to a
civil penalty of up to $10,000.00 per day.
We regret any inconvenience this error may have caused and are taking measures to reduce these
kinds of errors in the future.
if there is a need for any additional information, please contact Robert Farmer at [phone],

Subject: ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL PENALTY FOR
VIOLATION OF THE RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS
Stanly Co. Schools - Endy Elementary School
NPDES PERMIT NO. NC0029483
Stanly County RV 93-070
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against the subject facility in the amount of
$250.00.
This assessment is based upon the fact that a request for renewal of the subject permit was not
received by the Division of Environmental Management at least 180 days prior to the expiration date
contained in the permit. The renewal request requirement is contained in your permit and/or North
Carolina General Statute (N.C.G.S.) 143-215.1(c).
Based upon the above fact, I conclude as a matter of law that the subject facility violated or failed
to act in accordance with the requirements of N.C.G.S. 143-215.1. A civil penalty of not more than
$10,000.00 per day, in accordance with N.C.G.S. 143-215.6A(a), may be assessed against a person
who fails to comply with the terms, conditions, or requirements of a permit required by N.C.G.S. 143-
215.1.
Based upon the above facts and conclusions of law, I hereby assess the subject facility a civil
penalty in the amount of $250.00 for violation of N.C.G.S. 143-215.1(c), pursuant to delegation.
provided for by N.C.G.S. 143-215.6A(h). Any continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new
enforcement action, including an additional penalty.

Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you may:
1. ubmit ve 'fication that the rmit i no loner needed:
If the permit is no ]anger needed and no wastewater will be
treated by the permitted facility, please complete the
attached request for permit rescission. Upon verification
of this fact by our regional staff, the permit and the civil
penalty assessment will be rescinded; OR
2. Submit verification that the wastewater treatment system was
transferred to another responsible party prior to expiration
of the permit:
If the wastewater treatment system was sold or otherwise
transferred to another responsible party prior to the
expiration date of the permit, please complete the attached
certification. Upon verification of this fact by our
regional staff, the civil penalty assessment will be
rescinded; OR
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made to the order of the Department of
Environment, Health,and Natural Resources (do not enclose
waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose
further enforcement action for any continuing or new
violation(s); OR
4. Submit a written reque t 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 this
assessment letter. Because a remission request foreclosures
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 issues in dispute. You must execute and return the
attached waiver and stipulation form to this office with a
detailed statement which you believe establishes that
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in
G.S. 143B-282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the
detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental
damage resulting from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an
accident;
(d) the violator had not been assessed civil penalties for
any previous violations; and/or
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for
the remaining necessary remedial actions.
OR

PIillir
5. Submit a written request or an administrative hearing:
If you wish to contest this civil penalty assessment letter,.
you must request an administrative hearing. This request
must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to
Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and
filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post

Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
Failure to exercise one of the options above within thirty days, as evidenced by a date stamp (not a
postmark) indicating when we received your response, will result in this matter being referred to the
Attorney General"s Office with a request to initiate a civil action to collect the penalty.
If it is not demonstrated to us that your conduct of the permitted activity has ceased or will cease by
the permit expiration date, failure to apply for a permit extension within 30 days of receipt of this letter will
result in the assessment of additional penalties. If the permit expired or expires prior to the permit
reissuance, the perrnittee will be subject to additional penalties for the operation of a wastewater treatment
facility without a permit.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact. Mr. Robert Farmer at 919/733-5083,

Permit No. NC0029483 & SOC WQ No. 88-51
Stanly County
A letter dated June 14, 1993 from Mr. James Misenheimer, the
Director of Maintenance for the Stanly Co. School System, was
received by this office requesting that Permit No. NC0029483 be
rescinded and that the monitoring requirements of SOC WQ No. 88-51
be eliminated for this school. Mr. Misenheimer indicated that a
subsurface low pressure pipe system (LPP) had been installed and
certified by the project engineer. The LPP system will be operated
under Subsurface Disposal Permit No. WQ0006168 monitored by the
Stanly County Environmental Health Department (SCEHD).
Staff contacted the SCEHD to determine the status of Permit
No. WQ0006168 and were informed that the subsurface system at the
school had been inspected and appeared to meet the construction
standards of the permit.
Since the discharge has been eliminated the subject permit can
be rescinded. Also the subject SOC requirements can likewise be
eliminated, since all conditions of the SOC have been met for this
school.

Dear Sir:
Our school system is in receipt of your letter assessing a civil penalty
of $250.00 for not renewing the NPDES PERMIT #NC0029481 at least 180 days
prior to the expiration date contained in the permit.
The notification causes several concerns to our educational agency as
identified in the following comments:
1- Our most recent SOC for that facility specified —"make
improvements to wastewater treatment facilities in order to meet final
effluent limitations, or cease discharge, by June 30, 1993.
2- Following a very comprehensive soil study of the site by our
consulting wastewater projects personnel, Mr. Thurman Horne-P.E., Mr.
Bob Deweese-Environmental Engineer with Plant operations of SDPI, and
Mr.Tony Jacobs -Soil Scientist, the Stanly County Schools submitted plans
and requested on February 14, 1992 to construct a LPP system at Endy
Elementary School. Following several communications, DEM issued permit
#WQ0006168 on July 14, 1992, for the construction of the LPP system at
that site. The plans approved for that installation incorporated the
old existing sandfilter into the new LPP system as a filtering device to
reduce solids prior to grey water being pumped into the new piping
system. Therefore, the sandfilter as it was being used for the old
permit had to be discontinued putting that system out of operation and
modified prior to putting the new system into operation. Both our
project engineer, Thurman Horne and representatives from the local
Stanly County Office of Environmental Health monitored the installation
of the new LPP system and certified it as operational on June 14, 1993.
3- Attachment #1 is a copy of the project engineers acceptance and
sign -off on the project.
4- Attachment #2 is a copy of the letter sent by our Maintenance
Department to the regional office of DEM requesting that Permit
#NC0029483 be rescinded. The letter was sent to that office due to the
fact that it's personnel are our closest contact with your division and
the ones handling on site visits concerning our compliance endeavors.
The communications between the regional office and your state office
have usually been very good in the past as the office receiving the
letter first has apparently copied and forwarded to the other in a
very responsible manner.
223 South Second Street, Post Office Box 1399 / Albemarle, NC 28002-1399 / {704).983-5151

As you can determine, our educational agency has made every effort we
are aware of to show reason for not needing the permit renewed. To be fined
following a review of the data provided above leaves cur personnel responsible
for wastewater compliances scamwhat concerned and frustrated. Please evaluate
the responsible actions on the part of the Stanly County Schools in complying
with the June 30, 1993 dead line of the most recent SOC for the Endy
Elementary School and consider the fact that we should not be in violation of
a permit renewal procedures at this time.

ent data for the months the school is in session, but does not
always record corresponding instream data (records no flow").
However, even in periods of no upstream flow, their permit
requires downstream monitoring for evaluating the instream decay
of waste and stream reaeration at a point downstream of the dis-
charge. Therefore it is important that the region inform this
facility of the need to adhere to the monitoring requirements of
their permit.

(Sunday -Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured,
divided by the number of daily discharges samples 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 fs
taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated f"rc m
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 sample 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 12 of 14
6. Concentration Measurement
The average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform
bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges
samples 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" or
"Daily Average" under "Other Limits in Part I of the permit.
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 1 of the permit.
The ""maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant
discharge during a calendar day. 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.

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,
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at
equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, a sample continuously
collected proportionally to flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time
intervals. If a composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals between effluent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly except where the detention time
of the wastewater in the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which
case, the interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number of
hours than the detention time in number of days; provided, however, in
no case may the time between effluent grab samples be greater than six
hours nor the number of grab samples less than four during any discharge
period of 24 hours or less.
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 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.

Part II

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 Subst
A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116
pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
12, Toxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of
the Clean Water Act.

STANLY COUNTY
Dear Permittee:
The subject permit issued on 2/06/89 expires on 1/31/94. North
Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.1(c) requires that an
application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to the
expiration date- As of the date of this letter, the Division of
Environmental Management had not received an application for renewal.
If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur
after the permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is
desired, it must not be allowed to expire. A renewal request must be
submitted no later than 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date.
operation of the waste treatment works or continuation of a discharge
after the expiration date would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1
and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per
day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request
renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil
assessment of at least $250.00; larger penalties may be assessed
depending upon the delinquency of the request.
A renewal application shall consist of the following information:
1. A letter requesting the renewal.
2. The completed application form (copy attached), signed and
submitted in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of North Carolina
Administrative Code (15A NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a).
3. A processing fee (see attached schedule) in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0105(b). The application processing fee is based on the
design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the
first categories of facilities.
4. Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a
priority pollutant analysis in accordance with Part 122.21,

5. Facilities which have not been constructed within the last
permit cycle and are therefore, considered "new" facilities,
shall also submit an Engineering Alternatives Analysis,
referenced in 15A NCAC Subchapter 2H .0103 and Subchapter
2B .0201(c).
6. If the facility covered by this permit contains some type of
treatment works, a narrative description of the sludge management
plan must be submitted with the application for the renewal.
In addition to penalities referenced above, a permit renewal
request received after the, expiration date will be considered as
a new application and will require the higher application fee.
15A NCAC 2H .0105(b)(2) requires payment of an annual
Administrative and Compliance Monitoring fee for most permitted
facilities. You will be billed separately for that fee (if
applicable), after your permit is approved.
The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application,
and appropriate fee should be sent to:
Permits and Engineering Unit
Division of Environmental Management
Post Office Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of

. Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal colifarm bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one -
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.
MS

Part I
Permit No. NC
e. 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 equiva-
lent 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).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
(1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
(2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
g.
(3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.
4. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC
regulations published pursuant to N. C. G. S. 143-215.63 et seq, The
Water and Air Quality Reporting Act, and to regulations published pursuant
to Section 304(g), 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act
As Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136.
Recording Results
For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of
this permit, the permittee shall record the following information:
a. The exact place, date, and time of sampling;
b. The dates the analyses were performed; and
c. The person(s) who performed the analyses.

Existing Facilities: The existing facilities at. Endy Elementary
consist of a 5000'gpd septic tank, a dosing tank, and a surface sand
filter. No chlorination is provided.
Proposed Modifications: Extensive maintenance was conducted during
the summer months at this facility in hopes that the facility would
attain compliance. At this time no proposed construction is planned
although chlorination may have to be added along with post aeration
before the. Permit limitations can be met. Elimination of the single
distribution line and splash plate on the existing sand filter and repiaciog
with several distribution lines would allow more even spread of the
wastewater, thereby, utilizing the entire sand filter area.

Part III EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Performance Evaluation: The most recent CEA reflected non-compliance
with BOD5 and Fecal Coliform, (CEA dhted January 20, 1982). Most
recent self -monitoring data indicate that this facility continues
to have problems complying with its Permit limitations for Fecal
Coliform.
O & M Evaluation: The facility appeared in excellent shape. I.t was
apparent that good 0 & M practices were being practiced.
Recommendations and/or. Special Conditions: Endy Elementary School
is currently under an. SOC containing secondary limitations, and.
requires the school to comply with its NPDES Permit's final effluent
limitations or cease discharge on or before September'1,, 1984.
Unless additional treatment units are added, this facility may not
be able. to comply with its final 'limitations.
Since this facility discharges to a dry ditch, upstream monitoring
is not necessary and should be deleted from the. Permit.. The wastewater
from this facility is entirely domestic, therefore, influent
monitoring, COD and Temperature analysis should also be deleted
from the Permit since the results of such would not reflect on the
system's efficiency.
It is recommended that the NPDES Permit for this facility be renewed.

Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one -
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of sa ples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD) The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean. The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.

Permit No. NC
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric ,an 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 equiva-
lent 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 consid Ted to be one (1).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and comp©sited
in proportion to flow.
Not less than ftur equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
g. Grab Sample: A grab same °' is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the periods) most representative of the total discharge.
