Other Special Items: PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS I have talked with the ORC at Saluda regarding the sludge disposal situation. She is going to contact several nearby municipalities which have land application programs to see if one of them would be willing to accept the town' s residuals . A letter verifying acceptance will be sent to DEM. The treatment facility is currently suffering from toxic impacts which is prohibiting the development of a microbial population in the aeration basin. Excess I/I is also a problem. During rains, the facility experiences washouts . The " lift stations" are actually a series of large septic tanks which retrain wastewater for long periods . As a result of one or more of the problems mentioned, the Town is unable to achieve the permit requirement of 85% BOD5 removal . More I/I investigation and sewer line repair/replacement is needed. The collection system as a whole needs to be renovated. Since these problems will not be remedied by denying the renewal of the permit, it should be renewed 1 Signatt .e, of Report Preparer Water Onality Regional Supervisor 7 - Dat Page 4
