SUBJECT: Pretreatment Compliance Inspection (PCI)

NPDES# NC0025445
Randolph County
Dear Ms. Osthues:
On May 13, 2022 a Pretreatment Compliance Inspection (PCI) was performed by Jim Gonsiewski
of the Winston-Salem Regional Office. Ms. Lisa Osthues was present for the inspection. The
purpose of this inspection was to determine the effectiveness of the Town's pretreatment program,
which includes reviewing the files, POTW plant performance, industry monitoring data, and
adherence to the enforcement response plan (ERP).
Background
This is a 1.745 MGD permitted facility. The Town has one (1) Significant Industrial User (SIU)
which is not categorical. The publicly owned treatment works (POTW) had a spill of 20,000
gallons of sludge from the digester on April 4, 2022.
POTW Interview
There are no plant problems related to pretreatment issues and, other than the digester spill, there
are no NPDES permit limit or monitoring violations recorded from May 2021 through May 2022.
The facility is very well operated.
Pretreatment Program Elements Review
The Headworks Analysis (HWA) renewal was submitted on May 19, 2017. The HWA was due
on June 1, 2022. An extension to June 6, 2022 was granted on June 2, 2022.
The last Industrial Waste Survey (IWS) was submitted on March 2, 2018. The IWS was approved
on May 25, 2018. The next IWS is due on February 28, 2023.

LTMP File Review
The LTMP is being conducted at the proper locations and frequencies.
Industrial User Permit (IUP) File Review
The SIU was in compliance in 2021.
A review of the file for Deep River Dyeing (#0002) revealed that the monitoring data was well
organized and compliant.
The slug control plan for Deep River Dyeing (#0002) was in good order.
Action Items
No other action items were noted.
The pretreatment program is considered satisfactory. Ms. Osthues runs an excellent pretreatment
program. If you have any questions please contact Jim Gonsiewski or me at (336) 776-9800.

FILE REVIEW COMMENTS: A very well run pretreatment program. In the headworks analysis it appears that the facility is
over allocated for silver. This is due to the sample having been tested previously with a PQL higher than 0.001 mg/L. This will be
resolved in the next headworks analysis.
