SUMMARY:
The Greystone Subdivision has an existing discharge on an unnamed tributary to
Belews Creek. The facility is requesting an expansion and outfall relocation to a point
further downstream. In the EAA, this stream is referred to as a UT to Belews Creek,
however BIMS refers to this segment as Right Fork Belews Creek (Deans Creek). This
is a C class stream from its source to its confluence with Belews Creek. This stream
is not 303(d) listed and there were no restrictions noted in the basin plan.
The EAA for expansion (from 0.032 MGD to 0.185 MGD) and relocation was reviewed
and approved on February 27, 2007. The Level B model was developed on 06/25/07.
COMPLIANCE SUMMARY:
DMRs have been reviewed for the period January 2002 through April 2007. Facility
has a negaive compliance record. During the review period, the following NOVs
(notices of violation) have been issued: 03/07 - broken off effluent pipe section in the
stream and no current annual report, 9/25/06 - NH3, 06/23/06 - NH3, 02/07/06 -
monitoring frequency violation for a number of parameters, 02/ 10/05 -
records/reports violation, 08/06/04 - NH3, 06/14/04 - NH3, 11/17/03 - fecal,
l l/ 14/02 - illegal sludge disposal.
INSTREAM MONITORING:
histream monitoring is required for temperature and dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform,
and conductivity. Monitoring is conditionally waived based on the participation in the
Yadkin -Pee Dee Monitoring Coalition. An analysis of DO and temperature data showed
that the facility has a very minor impact on DO and temperature of the stream. There
were no violation of DO instream standard during the past 3 years.

ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION:
The Greystone Subdivision has an existing discharge on an unnamed tributary to Belews Creek. The
facility is requesting an expansion and outfall relocation to a point further downstream. In the EAA, this
stream is referred to as a UT to Belews Creek, however BIMS refers to this segment as Right Fork Belews
Creek (Deans Creek). This is a C class stream from its source to its confluence with Belews Creek. This
stream is not 303(d) listed and there were no restrictions noted in the basin plan.
This facility currently has instream monitoring for dissolved oxygen and temperature. DMRs from 1/05
through 4/07 were reviewed for this expansion request. DO levels appear to be similar both upstream
and down, with values ranging from 7 mg/L to 14 mg/L.
USGS provided streamflow estimates for a station near the proposed discharge point (0206902635) and a
station further downstream at the confluence with Belews Creek (0206902640). The model predicted that
the current BOD limit (23 mg/L), a DO minimum of 5 mg/L, and an ammonia limit of 2 mg/L would
protect the instream DO standard. However that scenario resulted in a very high CBOD (16.76 mg/L) at
the discharge point that remained high 4 miles downstream (8.95 mg/L). The DO sag occurs
approximately 2 miles from the discharge point, and two wastewater -carrying tributaries merge with
Belews Creek 2.8 and 3.8 miles below the Greystone W WTP outfall. Although those dischargers were not
included in the model, it can be assumed that there may be some interaction considering the very low
streamflows in this area. Therefore the model was rerun with a BOD of 5 mg/L in an attempt to
minimize the CBOD contribution. The maximum CBOD at this scenario is 4.5 mg/L with an end CBOD
of 2.25 mg/L. Again, the DO sag occurs approximately 2 miles from the discharge point. At 2.8 miles,
where a wastewater -carrying tributary connects with Belews Creek, the predicted CBOD is
approximately 2.7 mg/L, which is very near background.

Toya,
I apologize for your confusion. A review of the my email to Mr. Hatton (dated 07/13/2005) and our site
files indicates a mistake on my part when typing the email. The site number should have been listed as
0206902635. The "6" digit located 3 numbers from the right side was omitted. Again, please accept my
apologies for the confusion this caused.
Sta. 0206902635 -- Belews Creek tributary at SR 2014 near Kernersville, drainage area 2.65 sgmi, lat/long
361027/800505
Hope this clarification helps with this situation.
This matter highlights the need for some kind of effort to update and replace the files your office uses. In
February 2006, 1 met with Jackie Nowell and Teresa Rodriguez to talk about the files being used by the
DWQ staff. As I recall, the printout of sites and flow statistics in your office has a 1997 or 1998 date
written on top. But I have not provided a mass listing of site attributes and flow statistics in the years that I
have done low -flow estimates. So it's somewhat of a puzzling issue as to exactly where the file originated.
The future solution to this issue will be tied into the development and implementation of a StreamStats
application for North Carolina. Below is a link to an online description of StreamStats with further links to
those states where applications have gone public. Based on my understanding, a proposal is in the works
to develop a pilot StreamStats application for the Pigeon River basin in western North Carolina.
http://water.usgs.gov/osw/streamstats/index.html
Nevertheless, it would be helpful to develop some kind of effort to create an online listing of the low -flow
statistics that have been published or otherwise provided through previous requests.
Further, the current low -flow frequency relations (USGS Water -Supply Paper 2403) for ungaged sites are
based on data through 1987. And there is now a need to consider an updated regionalization study for
low -flow frequency.
I will be glad to meet with your staff as discussed yesterday to further talk about low -flow issues,
StreamStats, and other matters that may be of interest to you.
Thank you.
Curtis Weaver

Subject Record station verification
Hi Curtis,
We have a request for a permit expansion in-house and in the package is
an email from you to a consultant in 2005. The person's name is Jerry
Hatton and they were asking about flows for an unnamed tributary to
Belews Creek in the Roanoke River Basin. The lat/long for the proposed
discharge point is 36 10 24/ 80 05 04•(however I don't believe they had
an exact lat/long for you at the time).
In the email you mention that a nearby partial record station is
"020690235 - Belews Creek tributary at SR 2014 near Kernersville" and
that the drainage area for that record station is 2.65 sgmi. I was able
to find a record station id 02069023_*3*_5 with a similar name. However
it is on Belews Creek and not the unnamed tributary to Belews Creek.
But the drainage area for that station (according to our records) is
6.79 sgmi (not 2.65 sgmi). I'm not quite sure if it was a simple
oversight or if our records are wrong and are missing this information.
The closest record stations that I can find to this location are
0206902628- Belews Creek Trib nr Crims Crossroads and 0206902616 -
Belews Creek Trib nr Talley's Crossing. They are two small tribs that
merge shortly before the proposed discharge location. By looking at the
drainage areas for those tribs, it looks like the DA for the point of
interest would probably be about 2.6 sgmi. So that makes me think that
the information we have is just very outdated.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for your help,

Toya,
In response to your inquiry about the low -flow characteristics for a Belews Creek tributary site (station id 0206902635) in northeastern Forsyth County, the following information is
provided:
The Information that was provided to Mr. Hatton (via email dated July 13, 2005) was based on low -flow characteristics at several nearby sites within the Yadkin River basin in
northeastern Forsyth County, which were published in USGS Water -Supply Paper 2403, 'Low -flow characteristics of streams in North Carolina' (Giese and Mason, 1993).
An online version of the report is available through http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/usgspubslwsp/wsp2403. The report provides the low -flow characteristics (based on data through 1988) via
regional relations and at -site values for sites with drainage basins between 1 and 400 sgmi and not considered or known to be affected by regulation and/or diversions.
httpJ/pubs.er.usgs.gov/usgspubs/wrVwri964154
Please note that while a basinwide low -flow report for the Roanoke basin was published in 1996 (available online at httpJ/pubs.er.usgs.govlusgspubs/w Vwr!964154), consideration of
available nearby data and underlying geology make the information provided in WSP 2403 more appropriate for assessing tow -flow characteristics at streams in upper Belews Creek
basin.
FYI ... If you access either report, please note the online report files are provided in the '.QJVU' format and require a particular Uzardtech plug-in, also available through a link
displayed on the page. Or you can click an adjacent link that will allow you to view the report as a group of images without the need for a plug-in.
Getting back to your first question, the same nearby sites referenced for the 7Q10 and 3002 yields provided to Mr. Hatton indicate that W7010 low -flow yields range from about 0.25
to 0.33 cfsm. The same report (WSP 2403) indicates that annual average discharge yields are 1.0 cfsm for this area.
With regard to your question about site 0206902620, 1 cannot find a reference to that site number in our files. You cited a drainage area of 3.39 sgmi, and the only site listed in my
files with a similar drainage area is 0206902640. Belews Creek tributary 2 at mouth near Belews Creek (latRong of 361124 800512, drainage area 3.29 sgmi), downstream of station
0206902635. Please note location of this site as shown in the embedded map image below.
In my email to Mr. Hatton, I mentioned that streamflow information is limited in this area. Therefore, in the absence of any other data or information, the yields from the nearby sites in
Yadkin basin can be used.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.
Curtis Weaver

?"11Itr SOUR FRPwCN
In accordance with your correspondence of October 27, 2006 and later conversations with our
engineers, ARCADIS, we submit three copies of the modified Engineering Alternatives Analysis
and Permit Application (bound together). The modified documents incorporate two significant
changes. The first is the evaluation of a Direct Discharge alternative on the basis of tertiary
treatment limits (BOD5 — 5 mg/L and NH3-N =1 mg/L). The second change reflects Winston-
Salem / Forsyth County Utilities Commission's lack of capacity and consequently the elimination
of the Connection to Existing Collection System alternative. A letter from the Commission is
included in Appendix D of the documents. Specific changes to the documents are enumerated on
the attached listing.
We respectfully request a timely review of our request for a Major Modification to the existing permit. It
is our desire to proceed with final plans, Authority to Construct submittals, and to construction as
quickly as possible. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact either Jerry Hatton of
ARCADIS or me.
Sincerely,
Michael Myers

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
** 1.1 BACKGROUND
The existing Greystone Subdivision Wastewater Treatment Plant (Greystone WWTP)
is located north of the Town of Kemersville in Forsyth County, North Carolina. It is
situated on a 0.55 acre parcel at 1549 Creek Bed Road and serves a tributary area in the
immediate vicinity of the plant, including the residential Greystone Subdivision
community. The plant location is illustrated on Figure 1— Vicinity Map.
Greystone WWTP is owned and operated by AQUA North Carolina, Inc. (AQUA) and
is permitted under NPDES Discharge Permit NC0078115. Appendix A — NPDES
Discharge Permit NCO078115 contains a copy of this permit which is set to expire on
February 28, 2007. The plant discharges to an unnamed tributary of Belews Creek in
the Roanoke River Basin. The point of discharge is also illustrated on Figure 1.
Effluent limits are established in the permit for a 32,000 gallon per day (gpd) capacity
treatment plant.
AQUA desires to expand this facility to treat wastewater from an adjoining property
that is planned for development. Because of size limitations of the existing site, the
expansion is proposed as a totally new facility which will be located downstream
(northerly) of the existing plant on the adjoining property.
This Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) is intended to meet the requirements of
the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources - Division of
�•, Water Quality (DWQ) and is submitted in support of an application for NPDES permit
authorization as either a modification to the existing permit NCO078115 or as a
replacement of this permit. The requested plant capacity is 185,000 gpd. This EAA
�+ evaluates alternatives on the basis of the full 185,000 gpd capacity (existing 32,000 gpd
plus proposed 153,000 gpd).
MM 1.2 PROPOSED PROJECT
The existing WWTP is a packaged treatment facility of steel construction. It was
construction in 2003 and replaced a problematic plant at the same site. Expansion of
this facility is not possible due to the small size of the property. Also, the proposed
development adjacent to Greystone is down gradient from the current discharge point
and pumping would be required. Because of these reasons, a new facility is proposed.
The proposed WWTP discharge point is shown on Figure 1 and more specifically
illustrated on Figure 2 — Existing WWTP and Expansion WWTP Locations. The
regional topography of the proposed WWTP site and surrounding property Yis
illustrated on Figure 3 — Proposed WWTP Site Topographic Map.

2.2 ZERO FLOW STREAM RESTRICTIONS
These restrictions are not applicable because the discharge is to a water body with
regular stream flows. As part of the investigation of expansion feasibility, the United
States Geological Survey (USGS) Water Resources Division in Raleigh was contacted.
Mr. Curtis Weaver of the USGS provided data regarding the 7Q 10 for the unnamed
tributary. His response is contained in Appendix B — Stream Flow Determination by
USGS. The 7Q10 yield at the proposed discharge point at Vance Road (SR 2014)
ranges between 0.13 and 0.15 cubic feet per square mile (cfsm). With a tributary area
of 2.65 square miles, the 7Q10 is 219,732 gpd for the lesser yield rate. The 30Q2 yield
is 513,786 gpd. The tributary area is illustrated on the plan contained in Appendix B.
2.3 RECEIVING STREAM CLASSIFICATION RESTRICTIONS
At the existing and proposed points of discharge, the creek is classified class C waters
., in the Roanoke River Basin. Class C waters have a defined best usage for aquatic life
propagation /protection and secondary recreation. Under this classification, discharges
are normally permitted.

2.4 BASINWIDE WATER QUALITY PLANS
The most recent Roanoke River water quality plan was issued in July 2001 after
undergoing public input and review. As noted in this water quality plan, Sub -basin 03-
02-01 does contain Impaired Waters on the 303(d) list including Belews Lake and
Town Fork Creek. Neither of these Impaired Waters appears to be affected by waters
from the unnamed tributary of Belews Creek that serves as the proposed WWTP
discharge carrier. The Greystone Subdivision WWTP is cited in the plan as having
occasional, short-term violations of ammonia limits and the plan recommends major
improvements be made to the facilities. As previously noted in this EAA, the old
Greystone WWTP cited in the July 2001 edition of the water quality plan was replaced
in 2003. The current plant operates efficiently within the permit limits.
There are no conditions mentioned in the water quality plan that are expected to restrict
the discharge of the proposed Greystone WWTP beyond the limits currently permitted
for the existing plant.
2.5 IMPAIRED WATERS AND TMDLS
The unnamed tributary of Belews Creek is not listed as Impaired and TDML's have
not been established.
on 2.6 PRESENCE OF ENDANGERED SPECIES
No specific references have been found to indicate the present of endangered species
located in the vicinity of the current Greystone WWTP discharge point. A search of
records at the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program offices in Raleigh was
conducted and no endangered or protected plants or animal species have been
discovered or documented in the vicinity of the proposed discharge point.
2.7 LOCAL GOVERNMENT REVIEW
MR
The existing plant and surrounding region are located in unincorporated Forsyth
County. The proposed plant location is consistent with the current zoning and
M' subdivision ordinance of the County. Appendix C — Local Government Review Form
has been submitted through the Winston-Salem / Forsyth County Inspection
Department for completion by the County Manager.

3. FUTURE WASTEWATER FLOWS
M 3.1 EXISTING SERVICE AREA INFORMATION
The service areas for the existing and proposed W WTP's are shown on Figure 1—
Existing WWTP and Expansion WWTP Locations. Included in the ultimate service area
is the existing Greystone Subdivision and the proposed 67 acre Lambe development.
3.2 CURRENT FLOWS
The average wastewater flow for the twelve month period ending September 2005 is
approximately 13,000 gpd. The Greystone Subdivision area consists of 135 single
family lots, but only 72 of these properties are currently connected to the sewer
_ collection system. It is assumed that all lots will be connected at some time in the
future as septic systems begin to fail. The houses contained in this development are
generally 4 bedroom houses. The allocated flow based on a DWQ standard flow
generation factors including 120 gallons per day per bedroom, is 64,800 gpd.
M
M
3.3 FUTURE FLOWS
The 67 acre property that is immediately adjacent to the Greystone Subdivision is
projected to contain 250 single family lots when fully developed. As is the case with
the existing service area, these lots are expected to have 4 bedroom houses. Using the
same estimation criteria as above, the projected wastewater flows to an expanded
Greystone WWTP are as follows:

4. ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS
OR
There are several alternative methods of disposal available including (1) the connection
to an existing wastewater system, (2) land application of effluent, (3) reuse of effluent,
(4) the continued discharge to the unnamed tributary of Belews Creek, and (5)
combinations of these alternatives.
4.1 CONNECTION TO EXISTING WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM AND WWTP
The Winston-Salem / Forsyth County Utilities Commission operates a wastewater
collection system with two treatment facilities discharging to the Yadkin River. They
have collection system facilities serving Kernersville and surrounding region. The
nearest gravity sewer with sufficient capacity to handle the required 185,000 gpd flow
is approximately 3.4 miles south of the proposed discharge point. The Commission
system contains gravity sewers and pump stations with force mains. The collected
wastewater in the system generally flows to the west towards Winston-Salem. A recent
study of the existing collection system indicated that adequate capacity for additional
flows may not exist downstream.
The Greystone WWTP service area is separated from the existing Utilities Commission
sewers by the ridge line between Belews Creek and the unnamed tributary of Belews
Creek. It will be necessary to pump wastewater to the Commission sewers. Also,
downstream capacity improvements are expected to be required in order to
accommodate the addition of 185,000 gpd from Greystone. When adjusted to peak
flow using 2.5 as a peaking factor, the flow capacity required for Greystone is 321
+� gallons per minute. This peak flow rate is used to evaluate both gravity and pumping
facilities in the Winston-Salem / Forsyth County Utilities system. The facilities
necessary to connect to the Utilities Commission's gravity sewer are shown on Figure
4 — Connection to Existing Wastewater Collection System and WWTP.
According to Mr. Nicholas J. Seeba, Special Projects Coordinator of Winston-Salem /
Forsyth County City/County Utilities, their system can not accommodate the projected
flow. Accordingly, no further analysis was made.
Mr. Seeba's letter is included in Appendix D — Connection to Existing Collection
System and WWTP — Public Sewer Availability.
P" 4.2 LAND APPLICATION
Applying treated wastewater to land at rates compatible with the natural physical,
chemical and biological processes that occur in soils is an alternative. Due to odor
problems and buffer requirements, land applying screened wastewater is generally

The Greystone WWTP is located in an area that is experiencing moderate
development growth. It is being developed for residential land uses with supporting
commercial properties. The region is characterized as rolling topography with many
streams and creeks. Large areas lie within regulated flood plains.
Ism
There are few large parcels of property near the Greystone plant site. For the
purposes of this alternative analysis, several parcels ranging in size between 285 and
P" 88 acres were identified from the Forsyth County GIS database. These properties are
illustrated on Figure 5 — Potential Land Application Sites and tabulated in Appendix
E - Potential Land Application Sites. The table contains ownership information, area,
tax value, current zoning classification, and approximate area of the property
impacted by flood plains. A tax value per acre of useable property (total area less
wetlands/flood plain) has been estimated.
Most of these parcels are either used for agricultural purposes or are in the
development planning stage. It is not likely that the property owners would willingly
sell their property for land application purposes. The analysis of this alternative has
only been undertaken to determine financial cost of the alternative, not actual
feasibility.
Many other factors can influence the potential of this alternative including the
presence of wetlands, environmental factors, zoning issues, and property owner
willingness to sell their property. AQUA does not own any land in the area other than
the current WWTP site and several community well sites. Four parcels within a mile
n� and one half of the proposed WWTP site were identified as large enough to be used
for land application. One was chosen as representative of the others and used for cost
estimating purposes. It is owned by T.G. Preston Jr.
Buffer zones for a spray irrigation system are required by DWQ requirements. These
are per NC Administrative Code (NCAC) T15A: 02H.0200 and are set at 400 feet
from any habitable residence, 150 feet from any property line, and 100 feet from a
stream, canal or marsh. Assuming a soil loading rate of 36 inches per year, the
needed land area would be 74 acres. A 60-day storage reservoir would require
approximately 5 acres to contain a 11.1 million gallon lined pond with a water depth
of seven feet. After adding space for an effluent storage reservoir and the required
buffers, a total of 111 acres of land will be required depending on the shape of the
property available.
p,
An estimate of the capital cost of the land application system was made without the
benefit of a soil scientist, design, or field information. The estimated capital cost
including property acquisition is $6,246,850 and is detailed in the Appendix F— Land

Application - Present Value Calculations. This alternative requires a WWTP with
performance capabilities similar to that permitted under the current NPDES permit.
As a result of the present worth analysis and the additional considerations listed above,
land application is not considered a viable alternative.
4.3 IMPLEMENTATION OF A REUSE PROGRAM
With modifications, a wastewater treatment facility meeting the requirements of an
expanded Greystone WWTP can treat wastewater to the required effluent standards
that would allow its use as reuse water. Reuse quality effluent would require the
addition of 5-day storage pond with return pump station, and 30-60 day storage pond
for inclement weather conditions. Since the existing W1NTP site is limited,
acquisition of property for the location of both reservoirs would be necessary.
Approximately 4.9 acres would be necessary for these reservoirs.
Ultimate disposal of the effluent from the WWTP is usually anticipated to be by land
application on a golf course. The level of treatment required for spray irrigation on
golf courses is tertiary treatment plus a very low coliform count. Consistent with the
p.,
requirements of NCAC T15A:02H.219k, the WWTP is required to produce an
effluent with characteristics as follows:
■ BOD5 (monthly average) <10 mg/l
■ BOD5 (daily maximum) <15 mg/1
■ TSS (monthly average) <5 mg/1
^+
■ TSS (daily maximum) <10 mg/1
■ Fecal Coliform (monthly average) <14/100 ml
■ Fecal Coliform (daily maximum) <25/100 ml
■ Turbidity (maximum) <10 NTU
Regulations require ammonia -nitrogen less than 4 mg/1 (monthly average) and 6 mg/1
(daily maximum). However, to avoid nutrient induced algal growth in irrigation
ponds and to prevent groundwater contamination, it is desirable to minimize the
release of nitrogen and phosphorus. Accordingly, it is desirable to limit the effluent
nitrate concentration to 15 mg/1 and phosphorus concentration to 5 mg/l.
The second part of a reuse program is finding users. Potential consumers of reuse
water are landscape irrigation sites and industrial sites. Reclaimed water contains
nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, which can be detrimental to surface
waters yet beneficial to terrestrial vegetation. Treated effluent can also be used by
some industrial users for their non -potable water needs. There are no water -using
industries in the region.

�+ ANALYSIS
Golf courses generally have the best reuse potential among landscape irrigation users
due to their high application rates, large irrigated areas, and single supply point. Peak
reuse flows occur at night when most landscape irrigation is performed. Future golf
courses have an advantage in that the water storage facility, usually an isolated pond,
can be added to the course design to allow for off-peak pumping. There are no
existing golf courses in the vicinity of the Greystone WWTP.
For the capital costs estimates, the same parcel identified under the land application
alternative was considered. The force main routing is the same for both alternatives.
The estimate of the capital costs for the reuse system is $6,460,790 as detailed in
Appendix G — Reuse - Present Value Calculations. This estimate was made without
the benefit of a soil scientist, design. or field information. This alternative requires a
WWTP with performance capabilities exceeding that permitted under the current
NPDES permit.
Because a suitable reuse customer is not available, this alternative is not considered a
viable alternative.
,M14 4.4 DIRECT DISCHARGE TO SURFACE WATERS
This alternative involves the total replacement of the existing 32,000 gpd wastewater
,., treatment plant with a 185,000 gpd plant, designed to meet the requirements of the
current discharge permit limits. The proposed plant will include the following
components:
■ Dual Train Reliability
■ Flow Equalization Basins with Aeration.
■ Extended Aeration Basins.
■ Gravity Clarifiers.
■ Tertiary Filter.
■ Ultraviolet Disinfection with Post Aeration.
■ Sludge Digestion and Storage with Aeration.
■ Emergency Power Generator.
The proposed improvements are illustrated in Figure 6 — Proposed WWTP Schematic.
The basis of design for the 185,000 gpd plant is contained in Appendix H— Design
Basis for Proposed WWTP Improvements.
The estimate of the capital costs for the WWTP is $3,310.450 as detailed in Appendix
^, I — Direct Discharge - Present Value Calculations.
P" 9
4.5 COMBINATION OF OPTIONS
Any combination of the alternatives listed above is not feasible. The capital costs of the
land application and reuse alternatives are much higher than continuing discharging to
the unnamed tributary of Belews Creek as shown below.

I Capital Cost & Fees

Since the capital costs land application and reuse are significantly higher for the
alternatives other than a surface water discharge, combinations of alternatives will
likewise be more expensive. Construction of the direct discharge WWTP allows
AQUA to meet the demands of project flow growth. Capacity in Winston-Salem /
Forsyth County Utilities Commission facilities is insufficient to carry AQUA's
projected flow.
ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF ALTERNATIVES
5.1 PRESENT VALUE CALCULATION ASSUMPTIONS
The determination of present values for the alternatives include capital costs, land
acquisition, impact fees, and operation & maintenance costs. Fixed costs include all of
the above except the O&M costs which are accumulated and adjusted to reflect the
total expenses in reference to present dollars. The analysis period is 20 years with an
inflation factor of 5.875% as established by the US Environmental Protection Agency
and as published annually by the Construction Grants & Loans section of the DWQ.
The present value calculations are contained in Appendices F, G, and I. They are
summarized in the following table.

Jerry,
In response to your inquiry about the low -flow characteristics for a couple of streams in
04 Forsyth County, the following information is provided:
(1) Unnamed tributary to Yadkin River -- No previous low -flow characteristics have been
determined for the specific locations that you identified, and no site -specific data is
°" available for any of these locations. The only previous determination in this basin is
for a location in the headwaters estimated in 1988 (Sta. 0211545815, drainage 0.13 sgmi).
In the absence of site -specific data, low -flow characteristics are estimated by assessing
0" a range in low -flow yields (expressed as flow per square mile drainage area in cubic feet
per second per square mile, or cfsm). For the 1988 estimate, the 7Q10 and 30Q2 low -flow
yields used was 0.10 and 0.33 cfsm, respectively. These yields were based on a nearby
USGS partial -record site (Sta. 02115671, drainage 3.93 sgmi) near Lewisville.
04
Low -flow characteristics for the above partial -record site and other nearby sites were
published in USGS Water -Supply Paper 2403 "Low -flow characteristics of streams in North
Carolina" (Giese and Mason, 1993).
P" kssessment of the low -flow yields at these nearby locations suggest a 7Q10 yield ranging
.rom 0.08 to 0.16 cfsm and a 30Q2 yield ranging from 0.31 to
0.39 cfsm.
In the absence of any other information or analyses, a 7Q10 yield of 0.10 cfsm and 30Q2
yield of 0.35 cfsm can be considered appropriate for this stream. Once you know the
drainage areas for your points of interest, you can apply these yields to estimate the
7Q10 and 30Q2 flows. Our drainage -area maps here at the USGS office show the drainage at
the mouth of this tributary to be 1.28 sgmi (Sta. 0211545825, Yadkin River tributary near
Grapewood). We do not have any drainage -area information for the other two points of
interest on this stream.
a�
(2) Belews Creek tributary at SR 2014 -- Previous estimates for this site were made in
response to a 1982 request; however, the estimates are based on relations that are no
longer used to assess low -flow characteristics. A check of the low -flow characteristics
for some nearby USGS partial -record sites suggests that the 7Q10 yield ranges from 0.13 to
0.15 cfsm, and the
30Q2 yield ranges from 0.3 to 0.33 cfsm. A check of the geologic map also indicates there
is a transition in the underlying geologic setting that could result in some of the low -
flow yields being at smaller levels.
However, records for sites in this area are limited and in the absence of any other data
or information, the above yield ranges can be used.
+� The drainage -area for the location at SR 2014 is 2.65 sgmi (station id 020690235, Belews
Creek tributary at SR 2014 near Kernersville).
Hope this information is helpful.

Subject: Request for Stream Flow
It was a pleasure talking with you the other day.
As I mentioned, I have two projects that I need stream flow determinations, both in
Forsyth County, NC. Enclosed are vicinity maps along with USGS maps indicating the points
of potential. discharge. I am requesting multiple points for each proposed WWTP so that I
can determine the appropriate location for a discharge. I suspect that it will be
am necessary to move downstream beyond the junction of waterways to reach the volume
.ecessary.
-The projects are titled "Graystone WWTP Expansion" and "Lissara WWTP".
«Lissara Discharge Points - 07-08-05.pdf >> «Graystone Discharge Points - 07-08-05.pdf >>
Please provide the 7Q10 and 30Q2 rates that I should apply to the tributary areas to the
discharge point so that I can calculate the volumes necessary.
F" Thank you for your assistance.

In Re: Public Sewer Availability
For Greystone Subdivision Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion
Kerner Road and Vance Road
Dear Mr. Hatton:
This letter is to inform you that Winston-Salem/Forsyth County sanitary sewer services
are not available to serve the property described as Greystone Subdivision Wastewater
.. Treatment Plant Expansion.
Sanitary Sewer: An 18" gravity sewer main is located in the proposed connection area
however it is not able to handle the 321 gpm peak flow rate produced by this expansion
of the Greystone W WTP.
If you have any further questions, please give me a call at (336) 727-8418.
Sincerely,
