Description of Collection System or Treatment Process:
The wastewater discharged by the Southem Pines Water Plant is generated
by the filter backwash operation. The filter backwash enters a 180,000
gallon circular sedimentation basin. The water is allowed to settle and
sludge concentrates on a conical shape bottom. The sludge that settles is
conditioned and transferred via two 200 gpm sludge pumps to one of six 300
foot sand drying beds. The clarified water is collected at the top of the basin
through two ports, one at the top of the column and one 12 feet below the
surface. Normal operations have the second level closed and the top port
open. The clarified effluent is collected in a pump chamber and with
sufficient level increase, is pumped to discharge via two 800 gpm discharge
pumps. The flow is metered by a mechanical meter on an "6" inch discharge
line. The effluent enters Aberdeen Creek approximately 2 miles away.
II. Compliance Performance
The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR) regulates the Town of Southern Pines effluent discharge under
the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The
NCDENR issued to the Town a NPDES Permit, which includes water
quality limits and sampling and monitoring requirements. The NPDES
Permit requires the Town to test more than 7 different constituents in the
treated water. The monitoring frequency for these constituents are set at
various intervals such as continuous, daily, weekly, monthly, and
quarterly. During the reporting period, the Town conducted 447 tests of
the treated water before it was discharged to the creek. The WWTP
achieved a compliance level of 100% with the NPDES Permit
requirements. Following is a summary of the testing for the parameters,
which are assigned Water Quality standards by the NPDES Permit.
Please note the summary does not include parameters, which
incorporates a monitoring requirement only, nor does it include daily
process control testing.
