The WSRO has no objections to the proposed upgrades at East Bend
Elementary School. The upgrade will include the installation of a
recirculation system and new spray heads on the filter as well as
a relocated discharge point requiring 5 miles of 2 inch pressure
effluent line. The Yadkin Soard of Education is operating the
waste water plants at three elementary schools under SOC 90-34
(AdI) . Presently,, the facility is permitted at 5000 gpd. Upon
relocation, of discharge point, the permitted flow will be 7000 gpd.
The most recent staff report is attached.
WSRO recommends issuance of the Authorization to Construct..
