The discharge from the Moore County Water Pollution Control wastewater
treatment facility flows to Aberdeen Creek, at a point with a 7Q10 of 15.2 cfs
flow (as according to the Whole Effluent Toxicity Testing Self -Monitoring
Summary --- see attachment). It is classified as Class C,waters, which promotes
aquatic life propagation and survival, fishing, wildlife, secondary recreation, and
agriculture.
PART II - DISCRIPTION OF WASTES AND TREATMENT WORKS
Volume of wastewater to be permitted:
(Ultimate Design Capacity)
What is the current permitted capacity of the Wastewater Treatment facility?
6.7 MGD
6.7 MGD
Actual treatment capacity of the current facility (current design capacity)?
6.7 MGD
Please provide a description of the existing or substantially constructed
wastewater treatment facility:
Raw wastewater flow enters the headworks of the plant through an influent pump
station with four dry pit submersible pumps and two mechanical bar screens.
The flow is pumped to the grit removal unit. The settled grit is pumped from the
bottom of each chamber by two grit pumps, and into the grit washer. The grit
slurry is then dewatered. A screw conveyor carries the grit to a container located
outside the grit unit. The grit that is collected is sent to the landfill. Wastewater
from the grit unit flows over a wier into the effluent line ensuring a grit free
discharge to the two primary clarifiers (each 75 feet in diameter). Settled solids
from the primary clarifiers are mechanically collected for pumping to the
anaerobic digesters. In the primary clarifier, a skimmer attached to the ann
collects scum from the surface and drops it into a scum box that drains outside the
tank wall. Pumps located in the grit unit pump the primary sludge from the
primary clarifier directly to the anaerobic digesters. The primary clarifier effluent
flows to the First Stage Aeration Basins (separated into four rectangular
compartments with diffused air). The mixed liquor is continuously transferred to
the two Intermediate Clarifier (each 90 feet in diameter) for gravity separation and

is returned to the First Stage aeration basins with the excess going to the
anaerobic digesters. The wastewater from the Intermediate Clarifiers enters the
Second Stage Aeration Basins, and later flows to the Final Clarifiers. The settled
sludge in the Final Clarifiers is returned to the Second Stage Aeration Basins,
with excess going to the anaerobic digesters. Effluent from the Final Clarifiers
flows to the Chlorine Contact Basin. This is followed by dechlorination, and
finally the Cascade Step Aeration. The sludge from the two anaerobic digesters
is applied to thirty-six drying beds for composting by McGill Environmental.
e. Possible toxic impacts to the surface waters:
None

options available: Please provide the regional perspective for each of the options that
were evaluated.

PART IV — EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The applicant is not requesting modification of the facility or increasing flow at this time.
2. A review of the compliance data did not reveal any significant violations. In -June 2006
and December 2006 this facility experienced Whole Effluent Toxicity failures. Upon
investigation by this Office, the failures appeared to have been caused by the location of
the dechlorination injection point too close to, and in the immediate flow path of, the 24-
hour composite sample intake. That is to say, the 24-hour composite samples for the
Whole Effluent Toxicity analysis contained too much. dechlorination and was not
representing the true dilution of the Effluent 001 wastewater with the dechlorination
agent.
3. Based upon the previous Compliance Evaluation Inspection (CEI) that was conducted on
February 5, 2009, all units. were in service, and "this facility continues to maintain a very
high standard for wastewater treatment".
4. This Office recommends continuation of the Special Conditions for the Whole Effluent
Toxicity monitoring and the Pretreatment Program.
5. Based upon the above information, this Office recommends reissuance of the said permit
for the continued operation of an existing 6.7 MGD wastewater treatment facility
consisting of influent pumps, mechanical bar screen, grit removal, primary clarification,
first -stage activated sludge, intermediate clarification, second -stage aeration, final
clarification, anaerobic sludge digestion, sludge drying beds, and a post aeration cascade
aerator, also two anaerobic sludge digesters located at the Moore County Water Pollution
Control Plant on Addor Road, south of Aberdeen in Moore. County.

Dear Mr. Brobst:
Enclosed you will find a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection report for the
inspection conducted on February 5, 2008. As part of the inspection a tour of the Wastewater
Treatment Plant was conducted. All observations are in PartD. Summary of Findings/Comments of
this inspection report. It is recommended that the following equipment be repaired: one of the two
center flow mechanical bar screens, the screw conveyer for the grit chamber, the sludge thickener,
one of the four influent dry pit submersible pumps, and the automatic flow paced dosage for the
chlorine and the dechlor. If you have any questions or comments conceming this report or require
clarification on part(s) of this report, please feel free to contact me at [phone].

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
On the day of this Compliance Evaluation Inspection, the facility appeared to be in compliance with the
conditions of the NPDES permit. However, the following observations were noted. This facility had two
center flow mechanical bar screens that were dept in the automatic mode; one was out of service. When
checked at 1 PM, the 24-hour 001 effluent composite sampler had not collected sample for the morning of
2/5/2009, and the refrigerator temperature was 0 degrees Celius. The aeration in the grit removal unit was
operational, however, the screw conveyer was not operational. This repair has been approved in the
upgrade. The upgrade will begin in 2010, and finish in 2012. The Sludge Thickener has been out of
service for approximately ten years. It will be evaluated for repair in the upgrade. On the day of the
inspection, one of the four dry pit submersible pumps was clogged. The flow paced dosage for chlorine
and dechlor was out -of -service because of lightning. This facility received wastewater for the following
towns: Southern Pines, Aberdeen, Pinehurst, Carthage, and Pine Bluff. Two 1200 HP generators handle
the whole plant. They were tested every month (sometimes weekly), and sometimes under load. The
influent flow meter (used for reporting in DMRs), was calibrated quarterly.
