McCaskill, Supervisor State Engineering Review Unit Permits and Engineering Branch ATTN : As aad Shams i THROUGH: Roger K. Thorpe, ater Quality Supervisor Washington Regional Office FROM: Alton R. Hodge, Enviro ?eennt 1 Engineer Water Quality Section %\ y� SUBJECT: Permit Amendment Non -Discharge #15514 Kinnakeet Shores Dare County Bissell Associates, the consulting engineer, has submitted an application to amend Permit #15514 in behalf of the developer. The existing permit is for a 50,000 GPD tertiary treatment plant with rotary distributors. The original permit application on Kinnakeet Shores was for 250,000 GPD. The disposal area was under drained with the discharge going to area ponds that were tributary to the Pamlico Sound which is classified "SA" waters. As y_ou know, the regulations do not allow the discharge of domestic wastewater into SA waters. The application was denied on this basis. The hydrogeologists were Russnow, Kane, and Andrews, Inc., and in the original submittal, it was by under- standing that the disposal area would not function adequately at a flow of . 250,000 GPD without the under drain system. The information I received does not address a comparison between the original permit which was denied and this one. The hydrogeologic study submitted with this amendment is the same study submitted with the original 250,000 GPD application. The following additional information is requested: a) Explain the projected wastewater flow connected with patio homes N - 2 - June 14, 1988 b) Address the reason the original permit application for 250,000 GPD could not function without an under drain system and the subject modification request does not have one c) Locate existing single family dwellings on adjacent property and show distance from the wetted perimeter to them d) The hydrogeologist should submit comments as to the proposed system's effect on adjacent property owners' septic tank systems.
