Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Permittee: Town of Jonesville
Facility: Town of Jonesville Water Treatment Plant RECEIVED/DENR/DWR
NPDES Permit#: NC0089389
Yadkin County JUL 0 6 2015
Dear Mr. Buffkin: Water Quality
Permitting Section
Ron Boone, of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR or
the Division) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) of the Jonesville Water Treatment Plant
(WTP) on June 23, 2015. The assistance and cooperation of Billy Wood, Operator in Responsible Charge, was
greatly appreciated. An inspection checklist is attached for your records and inspection findings are
summarized below.
General Information
The WTP is located at 339 Shaw Street, in Jonesville, Yadkin County, NC, and at coordinates
36.235806°N, -80.857900°W. The permit authorizes the Town of Jonesville to discharge wastewater from this
plant via outfall 001 into an unnamed tributary to the Yadkin River, this section of which is currently classified
as WS-IV waters, and is located in the Yadkin Pee-Dee River Basin.
According to Mr. Wood, this discharge would only be opened when both trains of the Actiflo process
become contaminated, at which point a valve is opened and wastewater is discharged. These processes have
been in operation since November, 2013, and the need to discharge hasn't occurred yet.
Site Review
The entire plant was very well maintained and in good condition. Mr. Boone noted no problems or
discrepancies.
Documentation Review
All documentation was reviewed and no discrepancies were found.
