The Town of Weaverville would like to ask for renewal of our NPDES permit#NC0085154. Council Member
The only changes that have been made to our system are as follows:
We installed new chlorine and PH analyzers that use less process water.
Our filter washes have been cut in half due to filter media rejuvenation and filter studies performed by
an outside contractor.
Thank ou.

5. Type of treatment plant:
Page 1 of 3 Version 3/2014
NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION - SHORT FORM C - WTP
For discharges associated with water treatment plants
® Conventional (Includes coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation, usually followed by
filtration and disinfection)
❑ Ion Exchange (Sodium Cycle Cationic ion exchange)
O Green Sand Filter(No sodium recharge)
❑ Membrane Technology (RO, nanofiltration)
Check here if the treatment process also uses a water softener ❑
6. Description of source water(s) (i.e. groundwater, surface water)
Surface Water (Ivy River)
7. Describe the treatment process(es) for the raw water.
Raw water is injected with Delpac 2020 (Aluminum Chloride Hydroxide Sulfate) and 12.5%
caustic (Sodium Hydroxide) before reaching our up-flow clarifier. Then it is injected again at the
start of our conventional treatment process at the flash mixer. Water then runs through settling
basins to dual media filters. At this point chlorine gas is injected for disinfection. Once filtered
we adjust PH with caustic and add a corrosion inhibitor (phosphate) then to our storage tank to
be pumped to town.
8. Describe the wastewater and the treatment process(es) for wastewater generated by the
facility:
Our 250,000 gal waste basin receives all of our process water and backwash water, this water is
injected with S02 (Sulfur Dioxide) to remove chlorine residual just before it enters the waste
basin. We also empty our settling basins into the waste basin biannually. The clarified water is
decanted to the designated stream and all sludge is pumped from the waste basin into a tanker
and hauled to MSD in Buncombe County.
9. Number of separate discharge points: 1 Outfall Identification number(s) 001
10. Frequency of discharge: Continuous 0 Intermittent
If intermittent:
Days per week discharge occurs: 6 Duration: length of plant run after settled
11. Plant design potable flowrate 1.5 MOD
Backwash or reject flow 0.035 MOD
12. Name of receiving stream(s) (Provide a map showing the exact location of each outfall, including
latitude and longitude):
Unnamed Tributary to the Ivy River
13. Please list all water treatment additives, including cleaning chemicals or disinfection
treatments, that have the potential to be discharged.
Alum / aluminum sulfate Yes No x
Iron sulfate / ferrous sulfate Yes No x
Fluoride Yes No x

14. Is this facility located on Indian country? (check one)
Yes ❑ No El
15. Additional Information:

the water treatment process. The plan should show the point[s] of addition for
chemicals and all discharges routed to an outfall [including stormwater].

Lawrence T. Sprinkle Jr. Water Treatment Facility
Waste Water Sludge Management Plan
The Lawrence T. Sprinkle Jr. Water Treatment Facility is a 1.5 MGD municipal
water treatment facility. The facility incorporates the use of an up-flow clarifier
for pre-treatment of surface water. After clarifier treatment process is
conventional in design.
We have a 250,000 gal waste clarification basin for process and backwash water
collection and clarification. Clarified waste water is decanted via use of joined
pipe with winch depth control. Decant of waste waters are controlled by the
following procedures.
Waste waters collected in waste basin are allowed to settle to acceptable limits
set forth in NPDES permit#0085154 requirements. Settled water meeting
NPDES requirements are periodically removed by use of winch controlled
decant pipe. Sludge generated in process is pumped (as needed) by vertical
turbine pump into a licensed waste tanker and hauled to MSD of Buncombe
County for disposal. Disposal is in accordance with North Carolina General
Statues regulating waste disposal.
Daily average effluent is calculated by totaling all filter wash waters, calculated
process sample pump totals and basin volume if drained for cleaning. Typically
the effluent is estimated over a 7 day period. No effluent metering device is in
play ��2�i
