separately -owned sewer system.
(2) "High -priority sewer" means any aerial sewer, sewer contacting surface waters, siphon, sewer positioned parallel
to stream banks that is subject to erosion that undermines or deteriorates the sewer, or sewer designated as high
priority in a Division issued permit where the sewer does not meet minimum design requirements.

the criteria in Rule .0113 of this Subchapter and all specific criteria required in this Rule:
(1)
The sewer system is effectively maintained and operated at all times to prevent discharge to land or
surface waters, and to prevent any contravention of groundwater standards or surface water standards.
(2) A map of the sewer system has been developed and is actively maintained.
(3)
An operation and maintenance plan including pump station inspection frequency, preventative
maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory and overflow response has been developed and
implemented.
(4) Pump stations that are not connected to a telemetry system (i.e., remote alarm system) are inspected by
the permittee or its representative every day (Le., 365 days per year). Pump stations that are connected
to a telemetry system are inspected at least once per week.
High -priority sewers are inspected by the permittee or its representative at least once every six -months
and inspections are documented.
(6) A general observation by the permittee or its representative of the entire sewer system is conducted at
least once per year.
(7) Overflows and bypasses are reported to the appropriate Division regional office in accordance with 15A
NCAC 02B .0506(a), and public notice is provided as required by G.S. 143-215.1C.
(8) A Grease Control Program is in place as follows:
(A) For publicly owned collection systems, the Grease Control Program shall include at least bi-annual
distribution of educational materials for both commercial and residential users and the legal means
(5)

to require grease interceptors for new construction and retrofit, if necessary, of grease interceptors
at existing establishments. The plan shall also include legal means for inspections of the grease
interceptors, enforcement for violators and the legal means to control grease entering the system
from other public and private satellite sewer systems.
(B) For privately owned collection systems, the Grease Control Program shall include at least bi-annual
distribution of grease education materials to users of the collection system by the permittee or its
representative.
(C) Grease education materials shall be distributed more often than required in Parts (A) and (B) of this
Subparagraph if necessary to prevent grease -related sanitary sewer overflows.
(9) Right-of-ways and easements are maintained in the full easement width for personnel and equipment
accessibility.
(10) Documentation shall be kept for Subparagraphs (a)(1) through (a)(9) of this Rule for a minimum of three
years with exception of the map, which shall be maintained for the life of the system.
(b) Private collection systems on a single property serving an industrial facility where the domestic wastewater
contribution is less than 200,000 gallons per day shall be deemed permitted.
(c) The Director may determine that a collection system should not be deemed to be permitted in accordance
with this Rule and Rule .0113 of this Subchapter. This determination shall be made in accordance with Rule
.0113(e) of this Subchapter.
