Anthony Montero, operator of the collection system, was present for the inspection. The Reedy Fork mobile home community collection system is deemed permitted. Deemed permitted collection systems in NC are regulated under NC regulations 15A NCAC 02T .0400 - 0405. The primary requirements of these regulations are enumerated below along with Reedy Fork's compliance status for each: (1) The collection system shall be 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. There have not been any sanitary sewer overflows reported from this collection system, indicating the system is being operated and maintained effectively. (2) A map of the collection system shall have been developed and shall be maintained. Mr. Montero has a map of the system that meets this requirement. (3) An operation and maintenance plan, including pump station inspection frequency, preventative maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory, and overflow response shall have been developed and implemented. Mr. Montero had a written plan that meets the above requirements during the inspection. (4) Pump stations that are not connected to a telemetry system shall be inspected by the permittee or its representative every day, 365 days per year, unless the permittee demonstrates that daily inspections are not necessary because the pump station has sufficient storage capacity, above the elevation at which the pump activates, to justify a longer inspection interval. In no case shall the inspection interval exceed seven days. Pump stations that are connected to a telemetry system shall be inspected once per week. There are no pump stations in the Reedy Fork collection system, so, this requirement does not apply. (5) High -priority sewers shall be inspected by the permittee or its representative once every six -months, and inspections shall be documented. There are no high -priority sewers in the Reedy Fork collection system, so, this requirement does not apply. (6) A general observation by the permittee or its representative of the entire collection system shall be conducted once per year. Mr. Montero presented a log on which he records the annual system observation, along with other items. (7) Overflows and bypasses shall be reported to the appropriate Division regional office in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0506(a), and public notice shall be provided as required by G.S. 143-215.1C. As stated above, the system operators/owners have not reported any overflows at the Reedy Fork Mobile Home Community collection system. Mr. Montero does have a spill plan which includes the proper requirements, contacts, etc, to report and respond to sewer overflows. (8) A Grease Control Program shall be in place as follows: For privately owned collection systems, the Grease Control Program shall include bi-annual distribution of grease education materials to users of the collection system by the permittee or its representative.

(10) Documentation of compliance with Subparagraphs (a)(1) through (a)(9) of this Rule shall be maintained by the collection system owner for three years with the exception of the map, which shall be maintained for the life of the system. As reflected above, all of the required documentation is being generated or maintained.
