TEMPORARY MEANS OF DISINFECTION In the event that the wastewater treatment plant's ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system should fail, underperform, or otherwise be removed from effective service, the permittee or his agent should immediately inform the Surface Water Protection Section staff of the Asheville Regional Office of this development and discuss temporary, alternate means for disinfection of the effluent. If chlorine compounds are used as temporary means of disinfection, the total residual chlorine (TRC) concentration of the effluent must be monitored on a daily basis while this method of disinfection is in use and values must be reported on the discharge monitoring report. TRC in the effluent may not exceed 28 µg/L; therefore, dechlorination methods may also be necessary to ensure protection of water quality in the receiving stream. Use of a disinfection system other than the permitted UV system during circumstances not deemed as emergency and/or temporary (replacement of lamps, lamp cleaning or maintenance, etc.) will be considered a violation of the terms of this permit. The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 µg/L to be in compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 µg/L. �CLLL etv 12j23) r2 ASHEV i E CrTIZEN TIMES VOICE OFTI THE MOUNTAINS • CITIZEN-TIMES.com Public Notice North Carolina Environmental Management Commission/NPOES Unit 1617 MIServiiceCenter Well; NC 27699-1617 Notice of Intenttoo 5999 HPDES Wastewater Pemitt The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission proposes to issue a NPDES waste- water discharge permit to the person(s) listed below.

I have sent the information over to Go!die and Associates who we will need to help fill in the technical information as they are the operator for the system for us. I did however look and noticed we paid a renewal fee of $860.00 back on 8/2/12 for the VVWTP to NCDENR. Is there any additional fees required for the renewal? Thank you for your help in advance.

Today, the Division was informed that you are now the primary contact for this facility. The NPDES wastewater permit for the Indian Creek Resort WWTP in Transylvania County has EXPIRED. Any discharge of wastewater is now illegal, in the absence of a valid permit. If your facility is still discharging any wastewater, this permit must be renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit violates North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day. Follow the instructions in the attached messages so that you may complete and submit the renewal application. Failure to respond to this notice by. September 14, 2012 will likely result in enforcement action against your company. If you have any questions, reply to this message. 1 CHW From: Weaver, Charles Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 2:52 PM To: `pdemick@merrilltrust.com` Cc: Menzel, Jeff Subject: NPDES permit renewal application for NC0065889 is OVERDUE Importance: High The NPDES permit for the Indian Creek Resort WWTP in Transylvania County expires on August 31, 2012. Federal (40 CFR 122) and state (15A NCAC 2H.0105 (e)) regulations require that permit renewal applications be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit. To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package should have been sent to the Division postmarked no later than March 4, 2012. The Division has not received a renewal request for the subject permit. This is a violation of your permit at Part II. B. 10., which states "Any permittee that has not requested renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration...will subject the permittee to enforcement procedures as provided in NCGS 143- 215.6 and 33 USC 1251 et. seq.". In order to prevent an assessment of civil penalties you must submit a completed permit application (see enclosed forms) no later than May 29, 2012. Use the enclosed checklist to complete your renewal package. The checklist identifies the items you must submit with the permit renewal application. If you wish to rescind the permit, simply reply to this message. Charles H. Weaver NPDES Unit 2
