Other Special Items: PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMNDATIONS The facility has a history of noncompliance and insufficient attention to maintenance and operation. Numerous civil penalties have failed to get the attention of the permittee in the past and the noncompliant conditions continued for an extended period. The writer visited the plant August 7, 2001, and discussed the problems with the operator, who had recently been contracted. It was determined that the pump station was only being activated every two days sending a large volume through the plant and washing out the solids. The plant could not function under these conditions. The operator was advised to lower the floats so the pumps would be activated more frequently sending smaller increments of flow to the plant. It was also determined that many of the water fixtures in the restrooms and showers in the building were leaking, sending excessive flows to the system. The operator agreed to try to get this problem resolved. He was also advised that the clarifier weir had required replacement for many years. He agreed to try to resolve this issue also. The writer visited the facility September 5, 2001, and found that it looked remarkably better. The clarifier weir had been replaced with a unit fabricated from stainless steel. The color in the aeration basin was better and the effluent looked clear. Similar conditions were observed when the plant was visited on January 28, 2002, although there were floating solids in the clarifier. The plant does not support a very healthy biomass, probably due to the nature of the wastewater and the somewhat intermittent nature of the input of flow. Treatment plants are very difficult to operate with this type of wastewater. It is, however, operating much better than in the past. It is recommended that the permit be reissued for a period of five years. �&��Jjj /9Z6/4-- gnature of Report Preparer Water Quality Regional Supervisor cc: Wilmington Regional Office Central Files /- 3 -0 Date Date WORSLEY COMPANIES, INC. 10 S.

An examination of the Cape Fear basin plan and the NPDES permit schedule has revealed that the existing expiration dates in Cape Fear NPDES permits do not coincide with the revised permit expiration dates for the basin. This discrepancy could create unnecessary delays in the processing of over 200 permit renewals. Accordingly, the Division is changing the permit expiration dates for NPDES permits in the Cape Fear river basin. This permit modification changes the expiration date of the subject permit in subbasin 30617 to December 31, 2001. Please find enclosed the revised permit cover page. Insert the new cover page into your permit and discard the old page. All other terms and conditions contained in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. This permit modification is issued under the requirements of North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency. In accordance with the modification of the permit expiration date, the new due date for your renewal application is July 4, 2001. Renewal application forms will be sent to you approximately 6-8 weeks in advance of the new due date or you may download the forms from the NPDES web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/documents.html. You will need to download Short Form C. If you have already submitted a permit renewal form, there is no need to submit any other forms to the Division; the application will be processed during the renewal period for your subbasin. If any part of this permit modification are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. If you have any questions concerning this permit modification, please contact Natalie Sierra at (919) 733-5083, extension 551.
