1. Cabarrus County, Cedar Park Estates, NPDES NCO034711 — If using chlorine, recommend consideration
of conversion to non-chemical disinfection such as ultraviolet or ozone. It is possible that sports fish and
listed mussel species or suitable habitats could be present in the general watershed. Aquatic species,
especially eggs and juveniles may be harmed by chlorine entering stream habitats.
2. Mitchell County—Town of Spruce Pine, NPDES NCO021423 - If using chlorine, recommend consideration
of conversion to non-chemical disinfection such as ultraviolet or ozone. Trout, sports fish and possibly
listed species or suitable habitats are present or could be present in the general watershed. Aquatic
species, especially eggs and juveniles may be harmed by chlorine entering stream habitats.
3. Wilkes County, Village of Walnut Creek, NPDES NCO055590 - If using chlorine, recommend consideration
of conversion to non-chemical disinfection such as ultraviolet or ozone. Sports fisheries and possibly listed
species or suitable habitats could be present in the general watershed. Aquatic species, especially eggs
and juveniles may be harmed by chlorine entering stream habitats.
Generally, chlorine disinfection and de-chlorination methods, including emergency chlorine usage can distribute
potentially harmful chemicals to receiving streams and aquatic environments. Where these practices can be
avoided, we prefer non-chemical methods.
