Re: NPDES Permit No. NC006241 ;
Linville Ridge Development ci :-�
Avery County, North Carolina COw`='3
Our File No. 90-13 -1
On July 2, 1990, your office issued a renewal of NPDES Permit
No. NC0062413 to the Linville Ridge Development Company for
discharge from a wastewater treatment plant serving their clubhouse
facilities. As a condition of the permit, it was required that an
engineering evaluation be conducted within 12 months to evaluate
non -discharge alternatives. The result of the evaluation was a
determination and recommendation that the effluent be piped
downstream some 2,000 feet to a point of positive 7Q10 flow rate.
On behalf of our client, Linville Ridge Development Company, we had
transmitted to you our initial report and had subsequently sent
additional supporting documentation. It was our understanding that
your office had agreed with our findings and recommendations.
We now understand through a June 9, 1992, letter to Linville
Ridge Development Company that the proposed relocating of the
discharge constitutes a major modification to the NPDES Permit and
as such must be submitted through a formal application with
supporting documentation. Therefore, we hereby request on behalf
of the Linville Ridge Development Company that you modify the
current NPDES Permit so as to approve the relocation of the
discharge to a point approximately 2,000 feet downstream.
Attached please find three (3) copies of "Application for
Permit to Discharge -Short Form D" which have been executed by Mr.
Gary G. JohnsTon of Linville Ridge Development Company, together
with a check for $400.00 to cover the processing fee. Also
included are the design calculations supporting our proposed
discharge point relocation which is indicated on an accompanying
map. These calculations are appended to a copy of a letter to Mr.
Dale Overcash of your office marked as Exhibit A.

Limits Changes Due To:
Change in 7Q10 data
Change in stream classification
Relocation of discharge
Change in wasteflow
Other (onsite toxicity study, interaction, etc.)
Instream data
New regulations/standards/procedures
New facility information
Parameter(s) Affected
NH3, Chlorine
_X_ Parameter(s) are water quality limited. For some parameters, the available load capacity
of the immediate receiving water will be consumed. This may affect future water quality based
effluent limitations for additional dischargers within this portion of the watershed.
OR
No parameters are water quality limited, but this discharge may affect future allocations.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION & SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Adequacy of Existing Treatment
Has the facility demonstrated the ability to meet the proposed new limits with existing treatment
facilities? Yes No
If no, which parameters cannot be met?
Would a "phasing in" of the new limits be appropriate? Yes No
If yes, please provide a schedule (and basis for that schedule) with the regional
office recommendations:
If no, why not?
Special Instructions or Conditions
Wasteload sent to EPA? (Major) _ (Y or N)
(If yes, then attach schematic, toxics spreadsheet, copy of model, or, if not modeled, then old
assumptions that were made, and description of how it fits into basinwide plan)
Additional Information attached? (Y or N) If yes, explain with attachments.

Dear Mr. Jonnston:
In accordance with your permit modification request, the
Technical Support Branch of the Division of Environmental Management
has completed a wasteload allocation for the requested change in
location of your wastewater discharge. Attached to this letter is a
copy of the wasteload which lists the existing permit limits and the
proposed effluent limits to be included in the permit if the discharge
is relocated.
Please advise this office as soon as possible as to your choice
of maintaining the existing discharge location and complying with the
more stringent effluent limits or relocating the discharge point to a
location where the stream has more flow. Additionally, I would like
to point out that effluent data submitted for your facility indcates
that there may be a problem complying with the ammonia nitrogen limit
without additional treatment facilities. It is recommended that you
discuss this situation with your engineers to determine the best
solution for this problem.
