Dear Mayor White:
The Division of Water Resources (the Division) hereby issues the attached NPDES permit for the subject facility.
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
October 15, 2007, or as subsequently amended.
The changes between this permit and the previous permit include the following:
• Included new monitoring for the upgraded 0.200 MGD membrane bioreactor (MBR) wastewater
treatment system in accord with the Engineering certification by Dan Gantt, P.E. received on
May 29, 2014.
• Added updates to facility map and parameter codes.
• Quarterly Mercury monitoring is included to provide a database for future mercury management.
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify
that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs
electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these regulations will
be adopted and is beginning implementation.
The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic
Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to your NPDES permit. [See Special
Condition A. (2.)] For information on eDMR, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please

If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility
being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband
access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted
and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or
alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the
mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be
submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the

Sludge Management Plan
Creswell Wastewater Treatment System Improvements
Creswell, North Carolina
The Creswell Wastewater Treatment Plant is designed for 0.02 MGD capacity. The plant
includes influent flow splitting, equalization, influent pump station, screening, anoxic
tanks, aeration tanks, membrane bioreactors, UV disinfection system, post aeration, and
effluent pump station and force main for discharge of effluent into an Unnamed Tributary
of the Scuppernong River in the Pasquotank River Basin.
The waste sludge generated from the MBR system will be aerobically stabilized to
comply with the pathogen reduction and vector attraction reduction requirements of the
State (NCAC, Title 15, Subchapter 2T-Waste Not Discharged to Surface Waters) and
EPA 503 sludge regulations for disposal by land application. The stabilized sludge will
be disposed of by land application, using a contracting firm engaged in sludge disposal.
The design calculations for the aerobic sludge stabilization/storage facilities are attached
herewith.
For disposal of stabilized sludge by land application the Town will comply with the
Pathogens reduction and Vector attraction reduction requirement as follows:
Class B Pathogen Reduction: Compliance with the Class B pathogen reduction will be
achieved by using one of the following alternatives:
Alternative 1: Monitoring of Fecal Coliform (EPA 503.32 (b) (2)).
Alternative 2: Use of Aerobic Digestion and Lime Stabilization (EPA 503.32 (b)
(3))
Vector Attraction Reduction: Compliance with the Vector attraction reduction will be
achieved by using one of the following options:
Option 1: Reduction of volatile solids content (EPA 503.33 (b) (1))
Option 4: Specific Oxygen Uptake Rate for aerobically digested sludge
(EPA503.33 (b) (4)).
Option 6: Addition of alkali (EPA 503.33 (b) (6))
Option 9: Injection below ground (EPA 503.33 (b) (9)).
Option 10: Incorporation of sludge into the soil (EPA 503.33 (b) (10))
