Page 9 of 22 NPDES PERMIT PART B.3 Additional Application Information Brief Narrative Description The Headworks pump station receives sanitary flow from the Town of Newland's collection system. The headworks include a comminutor, an emergency bypass manually cleaned coarse bar screen, and a pump station equipped with three single speed pumps. Wastewater from the headworks pump station is pumped into the WWTP via a 10 inch force main. The plant is located approximately 3,000 ft away from the Headworks PS. Pumped flow from the headworks pump station enters a flow distribution box to divert flow to the two pre-engineered contact stabilization activated sludge units. A flowmeter is available at the flow distribution box to record influent flow. Each contact stabilization unit has a treatment capacity of 160,000 gallons per day and consists of an aeration basin, a secondary clarifier and an aerobic digester. Effluent from the secondary clarifier flows into a chlorine contact basin for disinfection. The disinfected water is de -chlorinated with sulfur dioxide and then released into the North Toe River via the outlet/headwall structure. Effluent flow is recorded at the chlorine contact basin. Wasted sludge from the secondary clarifier is stored in the aerobic digester basins. Once stabilized, the sludge is either pumped and hauled to Boone's WWTP or placed on the existing sludge drying beds. Cake sludge from the drying beds is periodically disposed into the landfill.

USGS CH(11 BY, •SHEET, NA Fig. 1 1 DATE 08/13/02 PROJECT NEU 29901-01 TOWN OF NEWLAND WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT SLUDGE MANAGEMENT PLAN The Town of Newland owns and operates a 0.32 MGD WWTP. The WWTP consists of two (2) pre-engineered contact stabilization treatment units and other supporting facilities. The two modular contact stabilization tanks have two 18' diameter clarifiers that remove sludge from the activated sludge mixed liquor in the contact basins. Secondary sludge is stored in two (2) 80,000-gallon aerobic digesters equipped with diffused aeration. Thickened sludge is accumulated in the aerobic digesters over extended periods of time. Supernatant is released from the top of the aerobic digesters prior to the addition of green sludge. Approximately every three (3) months, thickened sludge is pumped and hauled out of the digester basins into the Town of Boone's WWTP. Approximately 10,000 gallons are pumped per interval. The annual average quantity is 40,000 gallons of digested sludge. Once a year, the sludge that accumulates in the aeration basin (contact chamber) is drained via the sludge holding tank and into the sludge drying beds available for dewatering. The WWTP has ten (10) drying beds (20' long x 15' wide) equipped with sand and gravel bedding. It is estimated that approximately 5,000 gallons of contact chamber sludge is released into the drying beds per year weather permitting. Drainage from the sand drying beds is collected in the supernatant/drain pump station and pumped to the head of the plant. It is estimated that approximately 8,000 lbs of cake sludge are generated per year. The cake sludge is periodically collected, hauled and disposed to a sanitary landfield.
