A. Existing Permit:
During communications with Mr. Don O'Mara regarding the now -resolved air mixing question, it
was determined that the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system was modified from the permitted two
62 gallon per minute (GPM) disinfection units to three 40 GPM UV disinfection units. This change
is a minor modification, and the Non -Discharge Branch does not have any records of this
modification being submitted for review. Please provide information regarding the UV disinfection
system including equipment type, treatment configuration, calculations, operation and maintenance
requirements. Please also provide information for any additional or modified piping or
appurtenances that were required for installation of the modified system. Please submit application
form HRIS 06-16, signed and sealed engineering documents pursuant to 15A NCAC 02T .0704.
Our understanding is that this equipment has already been installed, as such please also provide the
date it was installed, an executed engineering certification, and the updated Operation and
Maintenance (O&M) plan.
