Pretreatment Review of Industrial User Pretreatment Permit Drop Request
Program: Town of Valdese
Wastewater Treatment Plant: Lake Rhodhiss WWTP
NPDES #: NC0041696, Burke County
Dear Candace Cox:
The Municipal Unit of the Division of Water Resources has reviewed the Industrial User Pretreatment Permit
(IUP) drop request submitted by the Town of Valdese (NC0041696) for the following Significant Industrial User
(SIU). The submission was received by the Division on 07/06/2022.
SIU #
SIU NAME
027
Valdese Water Recycling, LLC
The review indicates the IUP has been revoked by the Town of Valdese Pretreatment Program. Therefore, the SIU
drop request is approved based on compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0916 and 40 CFR 403.8(f)(1)(iii). The
allocation table, maintained in the Division's database, has been updated accordingly.
Regardless of approval action today, within 180 days of the effective date of any reissued or modified NPDES
permit the permittee would be required to submit to the Division a written technical evaluation of the need to
revise local limits (i.e., an updated IWS, or documentation of why one is not needed). This action may include
revising, updating, or adding to the list of Significant Industrial Users (SIUs). Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0907(b)
either the Division or the permittee may initiate pretreatment program revisions.
Federal and State pretreatment regulations require the local delegated pretreatment program to effectively control
and document the discharge of wastewater from Significant/Categorical Industrial Users to the POTW. It is the
POTW's responsibility to ensure that these objectives are consistently met.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Keyes McGee at [phone] [email:
[e-mail]] or Octavio Henriquez at [phone] [email: [e-mail]]
Thank you for your continued support of the Pretreatment Program.
