Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Certificate of Coverage Number NCGI 10119
Rowan County
Dear Ms. Basinger:
On August 17, 2016, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your request
to rescind your coverage under Certificate of Coverage Number NCG110119. In accordance
with your request, Certificate of Coverage Number NCG 110119 is rescinded effective
immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of
stormwater to waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit is against
federal and state laws and could result in fines. If something changes and your facility would
again require stormwater or wastewater discharge permit coverage, you should notify this office
immediately. We will be happy to assist you in assuring the proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would
inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact us at 919-707-9220, or the Stormwater
staff in our Regional Office [phone].
Sincerely,

SRU has abandoned GC23 stormdrain, severed the line (which drains to GC24 outfall)

With the abandonment of GC23, and no stormwater discharged being piped from the

Comment: Salisbury -Rowan Utilities removed all stormwater outfalls and routed the
flow to the WWTP or created a sheet flow condition by eliminating a point source. On
July 9, 2009 Salisbury -Rowan Utilities requested that Permit No. NCG110119 be
rescinded. A letter granting rescission was issued on February 12, 2010 by the Division
(the permit was made Inactive according to the Division of Water Quality data
management system). A new outfall has been constructed that will necessitate the
reactivation of the permit.

Comment: During a site visit on 5/26/2011 new construction of a stormwater outfall
was discovered at the facility. The new outfall is piped to a newly constructed ditch and
conveyed to another pipe that utlimately discharges to the flood plain of Grant Creek.
Erosion control measures were not put in place for the construction at the time of the
inspection.

Yes - GC20 is tile outlet from GC17 - it is directly below (if the legend is facing; the correct

I hope this helps - if you have any other questions/concerns please let me know.

Hi Rob.
We've received 2 an NON from Salisbury -Rowan Utilities for coverage of their
WWTPs in Rowan County — the 'town Creek Treatment 'Train and Grants Creek
Treatment Train —tinder NCG 11 (Treatment Works). The site discharges stornnwater
into Town Creek and Grants Creek, respectively. (However; the wastewater is now sent
from. the Town Creek TT to Grants Creek TT). I tried to attach the NOI - but it said
they were too big. I will try to send it again after this.
The Only question I have with these sites is about all OutfalI (GC20) at the Grants Creek
Treatment train. Sonja Basinger is the engineer there (I think she used to work at the
Mooresville RO?) and she said that she tried to find where it should be coming out
using smoke but it appears to be blocked. I asked if she could find where that side of
the facility was draining to — if the pipe was cracked or if it was draining over land and
she said it didn't appear to be cracked, seeping up through the ground or conning off in
another area/culvert.
Anyway, 1 asked if she could try to look again because our concern is that if the pipe is
blocked then it will back up when it drains or drain off in some other area. I ann also
attaching the answers to these questions she gave me below.

Does the Mooresville Regional Office have any concerns about issuing this facility a
COC for this general permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands? If
someone out there has time to visit it.. that might be worthwhile.
If we don't receive any objections, we'll issue the COC in 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding this please let me know.

Spoke to John Lesley - March 3, 2008
Said that they need to fix the pipe in Grants Creek or it will back up and potentially it
could overflow. Said needs to remove blockage to prevent flooding at the
screening/grit collection area. Fecal coliforms could be a problem here. Write this in
their letter that they need to address this. Ms. Basinger also told me on the phone that
this pipe did not go through and that there was the potential to back up the site.

Hi Rol),
We've received 2 an NOIs from Salisbury -Rowan Utilities for coverage of their WWTPs in
Rowan County — the Town Creek Treatment Train and Grants Creek Treatment Train —
under NCG11 (Treatment Works). The site discharges stormwater into Town Creek and
Grants Creek, respectively. (However, the wastewater is now sent from the Town Creek TT
to Grants Creels TT). The NOIs are .attached.
The only question I have with these sites is about an outfall (GC20) at the Grants Creek
Treatment train. Sonja Basinger is the engineer there (I think she used to work at the
Mooresville RO?) and she said that she tried to find where it should be coming ot}t using

Hi Sonja.
Thank you for answering my questions over the phone. I have some answers to your questions...
1. Yes - Salisbury -Rowan Town Creek and Grants Creek Treatment Trains (and municipal treatment works) are
considered Industrial Sites.
2, You will have 12 niontbs to implement your Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan (SP3) after your
Certificate of Coverage is issued for your general Permit. See,
http://h2o.etir,state,nc.us/su/PDF_Files/S W_Docutnents/S W PPP_GD.PDF
3. For the Grants Creek facility - we are a little concerned ,ts to where the stornnvater is going once it enters the
storm drain that appears to be blocked (outtall GC20). Our thought is that it trust be leaking out somewhere as There
are a lot of inlets - otherwise it would be backing up on site - seems like. Unless this occurred after your last
significant storm event. If you could please take another look at this storm drain to find out where the starmwater is
exiling. If you cannot. can YOU sample at inlet GC 17? We would much prefer that you would be able to sample at
that outlet (GC20). Have You tested from all inlets and can you find the segment where the blockage or leakage has
occured?
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Thanks,
Jell Jones
