RE: System Performance Annual Wastewater Report
Dear Mr. Stevens:
I certify under penalty of law that this annual report has been prepared under my direction
and supervision. Based upon inquiry of the qualified personnel who manage the facilities
mentioned and who assisted in gathering the available information, the information is to
the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate and complete. I am aware that there
are significant penalties for false certification, including the possibility of fine and
imprisonment.
Please find attached three (3) copies of the City of Claremont's System Performance
Annual Wastewater Report for the period of July 1, 2021 — June 30, 2022. This report
was placed on the City of Claremont's website at:
https://claremont.municipalcros.com/files/documents/FY21 WastewaterReport16941222
14090822PM.pdf
The City of Claremont also released the information to the local paper, The Observer
News Enterprise, where it was printed on September 10, 2022. Finally, information on
how to access the report was also sent to all utility customers via mail on September 14,
2022
I apologize for the delay in reporting this year. While the report was created in a timely
manner by our ORC, the City of Hickory, the distribution of that report was delayed based
on human error in our office. Measures have been put in place to ensure that does not
happen again. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at
[phone].
Sincerely,

The Facility utilizes an Intermittent Cycle Extended Aeration System[ICEAS]. Flow enters the plant and is split into two basins. While in the basins,
the influent wastewater goes through aeration.settling and decant cycles. The effluent is then sent to three tertiary sand filters and finally chlorinated
and dechlorinated before discharge into the receiving waters. The bio-solids residuals removed as part of the treatment process are transported to
the Hickory Regional Compost Facility for processing into Class A-EQ compost.

Annual Wastewater Quality Report
CLAREMONT July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022
NORTH CAROLINA
Mission Statement: To promote and protect the environment,health and natural resources of our customers
through responsible stewardship in the treatment of wastewater returned to our streams and fakes.
The City of Claremont is pleased to present you, our customers, with this year's Annual System Performance Report.
This report is required by House Bill 1160, the Clean Water Act of 1999. The purpose of this report is to display the past
year's wastewater treatment performance. The following data includes average concentrations discharged into streams
and any events of permit noncompliance.
The City of Claremont owns two (2) Wastewater Treatment Facilities and one (1) Collection System in the City of
Claremont. The North Wastewater Treatment Facility and the McLin Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility are staffed
with State Certified Operators. These Facilities and the Collection System were designed and constructed to properly
transport wastewater and then treat the wastewater to meet stringent discharge requirements. The effluent discharge
from all Facilities is disinfected prior to entering the receiving streams. As this report indicates we are committed to
protecting our most valuable resources, water and people.
