Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Linda Wiggs and Stephanie Williams with the Asheville Regional Office conducted a compliance
evaluation inspection of the single-family wastewater disposal system that services 10 S Turkey Creek
Road. Randy Burrell and Shelia Burrell were present during the inspection. This inspection was
conducted to determine if the system is being operated and maintained in compliance with General
NPDES Permit No. NCG550000. Overall, the system is currently in compliance with the requirements
outlined in the permit.
The residence is being used as rental units and currently has 5 residents. Ms. Burrell provided records
that the septic tank was pumped May 4, 2020. She also stated to protect the system they plan to pump
the tank annually. We discussed the required annual sampling of the effluent discharge is to be a
representative sampling event, therefore not right after the septic tank is pumped and to avoid
sampling during a rain event. The effluent discharge was sampled April 8, 2021 and results were in
compliance with permit limits.
Ownership has been updated and billing is current.
