Dear Mayor White:

Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director
Division of Water Quality
December 31, 2002
Subject: Issuance of NPDES Pertnit NC0048861
Creswell WWTP
Washington County
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly, we are
forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General
Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
This final permit includes no major changes from the draft permit sent to you on October 30, 2002.
The Scuppernong River is listed as an impaired stream on North Carolina's 303(d) list. This means that the stream does not meet
all water quality standards. The Division is working toward the improvement of water quality in the Scuppernong River. If the
current permit limits for facilities discharging to the Scuppernong River do not result in improved water quality, removal of
discharges to the Scuppernong River may be necessary for the health of the stream.
The Division believes both existing discharges and non -point sources are contributing to the degradation of the Scuppernong
River; therefore, we will continue to closely monitor compliance at your facility. If noncompliance with your permit's effluent
limits is shown to be a direct cause of stream degradation, the Division will recommend removal of your facility's discharge. Part
III of your permit requires you to "continually evaluate all wastewater disposal alternatives and pursue the most environmentally
sound alternative of the reasonably cost effective alternatives" to surface water discharge. Such an evaluation may help you find
an alternative to surface water discharge that is more appropriate for your facility.
The Division is currently in the process of implementing a Water Quality Standard for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) and expects
to introduce permit limits statewide in April 2003. Although TRC is not currently limited in this permit, the Division
recommends that you prepare a budget and schedule construction of facility upgrades to restrict the discharge of TRC (or explore
alternative methods of disinfection). Future renewals of this permit will include a TRC limit of between 17 mg/L and 28
pg/L.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you
have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request
must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the
Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is
made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other
permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the
Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be required. If you have any
questions concerning this permit, please contact Charles Weaver at telephone number [phone], extension 511.

PRINCIPLE: Organizational systems and processes are
driven by Customer Focus and Satisfaction.
Quality is judged by the customer (whether internal or external). All product
and service attributes that contribute. value to the customer should be the
foundation for the organization's quality system. Customer -driven quality is
thus a strategic concept. It demands constant sensitivity to emerging
customer requirements and measurement of the factors that drive customer
satisfaction. It also demands awareness of developments in technology, and
rapid and flexible response to customer requirements.
Customer Focus and Satisfaction Objectives
1. Define customer requirements. The
organization defmes near -term (1-2 years)
and long-term (3 years or more) require-
ments and expectations of customers.
2. Effectively manage and improve
customer relationships. The organization
provides effective management of its
customer relationships and uses information
gained from customers to improve customer
relationship management processes.
3. Commit to customer satisfaction. The
organization provides commitments (e.g.
guaranties, warranties, and promises to
customers regarding its products/services
and the commitments are evaluated and
improved.
4. Effectively determine customer
satisfaction. The organization has
effective methods for determining
customer satisfaction; these methods are
evaluated and improved.
5. Monitor customer feedback. Trends in
the organization's customer satisfaction
and trends in key indicators of customer
dissatisfaction are tracked.
6. Compare customer satisfaction with
similar providers. The organization
compares its customer satisfaction with
those of similar providers.

This letter is in response to your letter of July 24, 2002 requesting a description of sludge
handling and disposal for our town. We are currently operating a three lagoon sewer system
which has been in service for a number of years. At this time we have had no need to implement
sludge handling and disposal operations for the facility. However, as the need arises such
procedures will be put in place.
If further information is needed, please contact my office at your convenience.
Yours truly,
W.I. White, Jr.
