RE:
Summerhouse Wastewater Reclamation WWTP, Onslow County
Permit No. WQ0029945
Wastewater Pump and Haul Permit Application (Form P&H 01-16)
Dear Ms. King:
Please find enclosed a completed Form P&H 01-16 and the associated
application fee to request the issuance of a wastewater Pump and Haul
Permit at the above -referenced facility.
The primary reason for this request is to allow the transfer of the present
contents of the upset pond at the Summerhouse site to another ONWASA
facility (the Holly Ridge WWTP, Permit No. WQ0019907) for treatment and
disposal. Due to performance issues at Summerhouse, we have been unable
to both treat the influent stream and recover capacity in a filled upset pond.
While plant operational improvements (membrane and blower
replacements) are scheduled for completion on the next 90 days, it will be
imperative to have adequate capacity in the upset pond during that process.
It is our intent to move the entire contents of the Summerhouse upset pond
(estimated at 2.0 million gallons) to the Holly Ridge WWTP for treatment and
disposal. Transport will be performed by our current sludge hauling
subcontractor, Triple S Farms and Cleaning, Inc. utilizing tanker trucks with all
loads being tracked and metered on a per -load basis. This work will be
completed over an extended period utilizing multiple smaller Toads to ensure
the influent flow limit at the Holly Ridge WWTP is not exceeded.

If you need any additional information regarding this request, please feel
free to contact me directly at [phone] or [e-mail].
Sincerely,
d2//(1-,j ice
