Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Single Family Wastewater Treatment System
General NPDES Permit NCG550000
Certificate of Coverage NCG551365
Facility: 810 Colonial Heights Dr.
Durham County
On July 29, 2021, Alys Hannum and Jane Bernard from the Raleigh Regional Office visited your single-
family residence (SFR) wastewater treatment system to evaluate compliance with the subject General
NPDES Permit. The house was unoccupied. The inspector left a packet of information regarding Single
Family Treatment Systems and the requirements of the General Permit at the residence.
Our records indicate the treatment system consists of a septic tank, sub -surface sand filter, tablet
chlorinator with chlorine contact chamber, and discharge pipe.
General NPDES Permit NCG550000 and Certificate of Coverage (COC) NCG551365 authorize the
discharge of domestic wastewater from your treatment system to receiving waters designated as Ellerbe
Creek (classified WS-IV NSW) in the Neuse River Basin. The authorized discharge is in accordance with
the effluent limits and monitoring requirements established within the General Permit. The checked
boxes below show what conditions were noted at your facility:
® Locations of treatment units are unknown: Within 30-days of receiving this letter, provide
this office with a sketch or map of the location of the treatment units (septic tank, sand filter, tablet
chlorinator, and discharge pipe) in relation to the permitted residence.
Division records indicate the required annual fee ($60 per year) for the period ending December 31, 2021
and due January 2021 has been paid. There are no overdue fees for the subject COC.
The wastewater treatment system should be periodically inspected to ensure the treatment components are
always maintained and in good operating order. You are also reminded to maintain all monitoring data
and associated maintenance records onsite for a minimum of three years and available for inspection.
