SUBJECT: Notice of Violation NOV-2022-DV-0070
Town of Clayton Collection System Permit Number WQCS00110
Dear Mr. Vinson:
The following information is provided in response to your letter of March 14, 2022, that was received by
administration on March 21, 2022, and not forwarded to me, until I received email notification on July 11, 2022,
related to the Town of Clayton's actions to correct, and prevent future SSO occurrences:
Incident Number 202200206
This SSO was caused by a contractor working on replacing gravity sewer lines coming into the Little Creek WRF site
as part of the Town's Capital Improvement Project plan. They had just started bypassing a main line coming into the
plant. Their bypass pumping system malfunctioned, the primary pumping system never turned on due to a damaged
float and the secondary pumping system failed to start causing the SSO. The spill was found by town employees at
8:50 am and the contractor was immediately notified of the spill, the pump contractor was onsite and was able to get
one pump back running at 9:05 am to stop the spill. We were able to block the spill from further entering the creek
by damming up a storm drain downstream. The contractor was reminded of their responsibility and had to install a
different float system to prevent any more damage as well as required them to have 24-hour pump watch for the
entirety of the project. The area was flushed with clean water and captured at the storm drain, which was then returned
to the collections system. The affected area was treated with lime and returned to its normal state with no negative
effects to the environment.
Please contact me if any additional information is required at this time. Thank you for the attention provided to our
response.
Sincere ,

Sanitary Sewer Overflows - February 2022
Collection System Permit No. WQCS00110
Clayton Collection System
Johnston County
D-ar Mr. Cappola:
A review has been conducted of the self -reported Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO's) 5-Day Reports submitted by
Town of Clayton. The Division's Raleigh Regional Office concludes that the Town of Clayton violated Permit
Condition I (2) of Permit No. WQCS00110 by failing to effectively manage, maintain, and operate their collection
system so that there is no SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) to the land or surface waters and the SSO constituted
making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which a permit is required by
G.S. 143-215.1.
The Raleigh Regional Office is providing the Town of Clayton an opportunity to provide evidence and justification
as to why the Town of Clayton should not be assessed a civil penalty for the violation(s) that are summarized
below:

This Notice of Violation / Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/NOI) is being issued for the noted violation. Pursuant
to G.S. 143-215.6A, a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) may be assessed
against any person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of any
Hermit issued pursuant to G.S. 143-215.1.
'"his office requests that you respond to this Nonce, in writing, within 10 business days of its
receipt. In your response, you should address the causes of non-compliance, remedial actions, and all other
actions taken to prevent the recurrence of similar situations. The response to this correspondence will be
considered in this process. Enforcement decisions will also be based on volume spilled, volume reaching surface
waters, duration and gravity, impacts to public health, fish kills or recreational area closures. Other factors
considered in determining the amount of the civil penalty are the violator's history of non-compliance, the cost of
rectifying the damage, whether the spill was intentional and whether money was saved by non-compliance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mitchell Mayes with the Water Quality Section in
the Raleigh Regional Office at 919-791-4200 or via email at [e-mail].

Received phone call from Chad Wallace at WWTP at 0850 about the MH behind the building where Providence
Construction was bypass for line work, was overflowing. I arrived onsite at 0905 and the overflow had
stopped. We then damned up the culvert where the flow was entering the creek and started removing the
flow. We then ran a fire hose and flushed the culvert with fresh water and removed that with our vac truck
until clean (total of 30 minutes time) We then continued to flush fresh water into the creek and walk the creek
looking for residual evidence of the overflow. We noticed minnows swimming downstream of the SSO. We
placed lime on the affected areas and returned back to normal.

Subject: Little Creek Outfall Replacement Project
Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO)- Friday, February 11, 2022
Incident# 202200206
Dear Mr. McKeel,
On Friday, February 11, 2022, at approximately 8:40 am., Town staff were notified of and
responded to a sanitary sewer overflow at the Little Creek Wastewater Treatment facility where
Providence Construction is under contract for work replacing, relocating, and upsizing sanitary
sewer infrastructure. As you are aware, a significant sewage spill occurred from a section of the
system under repair by Providence. It was represented to the Town by your representatives that
the incident occurred during a shift change when a bypass pump failed. The Town was further
informed by your staff that the bypass pump was unmonitored at the time of failure.
Per the Town's investigation, an estimated total of 7,200 gallons of untreated sewage was
released into Little Creek and the surrounding area. Due to this SSO, although significant
environmental impacts were not sustained, Town staff were required to immediately mobilize and
address the overflow. Town staff responded to the site at approx. 8:46 am. to begin clean-up efforts
and to conduct investigation as to cause of the overflow. Due to the extent of the spill, numerous
Town employees, trucks, equipment, and resources were mobilized to assist in the clean-up. This
mass mobilization affected other Town projects which were either planned for the day or already
in progress. As part of the clean-up, significant potable water was utilized during the cleanup
efforts causing additional burden on Town resources.
Per GS 143-215.1C(b) NC DENR rules require the responsible party to report any
discharge of untreated wastewater to surface waters equal to or greater than1,000 gallons and issue
a press release A press release was issued by the Town's PIO office on February 11, 2022, in
accordance with statutory requirements.
Section 01270 "Unit Prices" Part 1.20, `By -Pass Pumping of Sewage" Subset "C" of the
Contract states that the contractor (Providence Construction) shall be responsible for sewage spills
that occur during the bypass pumping. This provision is also set forth in the Supplementary General
Conditions, paragraphs SC-7.10 F, G, & H. You may also refer to Addendum No. 2, Section "C"
Drawing Requirements, Subset la. dated January 27, 2021, which states `Bypass Pumping shall
run 24/7. Contractor is solely responsible for means and methods of maintaining by-pass pumping,
as well as Section "D" which states "There is one approach to the by-pass pumping included in
the Drawing. The Contractor may provide their proposed plan if different than provided."
Furthermore, the contract documents require 24/7, uninterrupted monitoring of the operational
pumps. Based on the Town's initial investigation, the pumps were not monitored at the time of the
spill which constitutes a violation of the terms of the Contract.

This letter is formal notice to Providence Construction that it is responsible for any and all
fines, violations, impositions, and any obligations set forth and/or levied by State or other local
authority as well as the cost of resources utilized by the Town to clean up the spill. Further,
Providence Construction is to assume full responsibility for its actions relative to this matter. Upon
receiving a formal response from the State regarding any fines to be imposed upon the Town of
Clayton, the Town will provide an itemized cost summary to Providence detailing charges incurred
for mobilization, materials, equipment, and work performed by its staff to correct the incident as
well as the cost of any assessed fines. Payment of the invoiced amounts shall be due within thirty
(30) days.
The Town further requests that a written response from Providence Construction (and not
sub -contractor) be submitted within (10) ten business days from receipt of this letter, detailing how
this malf inction/incident occurred, how the incident was resolved by Providence Construction and
its subcontractor, and what measures will be implemented to ensure this type of incident does not
happen again. The Town is ultimately responsible for its collection system and must hold its
contractors (including Providence) accountable when working on the collections system.
Be advised that the 90-day intermediate contract time remains in place in accordance
with the executed NTP date of January 3, 2022, and the Town is prepared to assess liquidated
damages if the milestone is not completed per contract documents. In the event of further
incidents or failure to comply with the conditions within the Contract, the Town will evaluate
further action including, but not limited to, contract termination based on Providence's persistent
failure to perform work in accordance with the contract documents as outlined in General
Conditions Section 16.02. Should you have any questions or if further clarification is needed,
you may contact my office.
