Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Single Family Wastewater Treatment System
General NPDES Permit NCG550000
Certificate of Coverage NCG551569
Facility: 723 Jonquil Street
Durham County
Dear Mary S Ford:
On July 21,2022 Jane Bernard and Jim Westcott from the Raleigh Regional Office visited your
single-family residence (SFR) wastewater treatment system to evaluate compliance with the
subject General NPDES Permit. No one was at home at the time of the inspection. The inspector
left a packet of information regarding Single Family Treatment Systems and the requirements of
the General Permit at the residence. Division staff makes every effort to contact permittees prior
to conducting site visits to give the permittee an opportunity to be present during the inspection
and to ensure the inspector will have access to the treatment units. Please provide this office
with a current telephone number and email address that can be used to contact you to re-
schedule the inspection site visit.
Our records indicate the treatment system consists of a 1200-gallon baffled septic tank with an
effluent filter, Advantex RT unit with recirculating media filtration, submersible return pump,
control panel with high level sensors, UV disinfection and an effluent discharge outfall to
erosion control rip rap apron.
General NPDES Permit NCG550000 and Certificate of Coverage (COC) NCG551569 authorize
the discharge of domestic wastewater from your treatment system to receiving waters designated
as unnamed tributary to Little River Reservoir, a class WS-II HQW NSW stream in subbasin 03-
04-01 of the Neuse River Basin. The authorized discharge is in accordance with the effluent
limits and monitoring requirements established within the General Permit. The items below show
what conditions were noted at your facility.

from ENCO labs. Please continue to ensure the annual monitoring requirement is
met for the year 2022.
Failure to monitor the effluent discharge as required is a violation of NPDES General
Permit NCG550000.
6. Discharge outlet location. The permittee is required to conduct a visual review of
the outfall location at least twice each year (one at the time of sampling) to ensure
that no visible solids or other obvious evidence of system malfunctioning is observed.
Any visible signs of a malfunctioning system shall be documented, and steps taken to
correct the problem. The discharge pipe was visible and accessible the day of the
inspection. Please continue to ensure the outlet is always visible/maintained and
cleared of vegetation, soil and leaves. To comply with the general permit monitoring
requirements, you need to be able to sample and analyze the effluent from your SFR
system through the discharge pipe. You need to keep the area around the discharge
pipe cleared of vegetation, soil and leaves. Please take the necessary steps to ensure
the discharge outlet is visible and accessible. Maintaining the area will allow you to
monitor the discharge and to collect effluent samples as required by the subject
permit.
Part II Section B.14 of General Permit NCG550000 requires the permittee to "pay the annual
administering and compliance monitoring fee within thirty days after being billed by the
Division."
The wastewater treatment system should be periodically inspected to ensure the treatment
components are always maintained and in good operating order. You are also reminded to
maintain all monitoring data and associated maintenance records onsite for a minimum of
three years and available for inspection.
Within thirty days of receiving this letter, please submit the name/ownership change form.
If you have questions or comments about this inspection or the requirements to take corrective
action (if applicable), then please contact Jim Westcott at 919-791-4247.
Sincerely,
7WAe,—e_
