FACILITY SUMMARY
The Yanceyville WWTP is a minor municipal facility (flow<1 MGD) that receives 100% domestic
waste. The design capacity for the treatment system is 0.45 MGD and the permitted flow is 0.6
MGD. The facility consists of the following components:
♦ Bar screen
♦ Diversion box
♦ Dual train aeration basins
♦ Dual equalization tanks
♦ Dual two-chamber clarifiers
♦ Chlorine contact chamber
♦ Tertiary filter unit with mudwell chamber
♦ Dechlorination
♦ Flow meter
♦ Re-aeration
♦ Emergency generator
RENEWAL SUMMARY
This renewal contains the following changes:
• Updated Section A. (2) to reflect current federal requirements for Electronic Reporting of
Discharge Monitoring Reports.
• Winter ammonia limits have been adjusted to be no less stringent than two times the
summer limit in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B.0404 (c). This new limit will become
effective two years after the date this permit goes into effect.
• Corrected error in effluent table, Mercury monitoring now reflects a monthly frequency
instead of “once per permit cycle” for both 0.45 MGD and 0.6 MGD flow. Limit
remains the same.
COMPLIANCE HISTORY
Numerous NOV and 6 enforcements in the last permit cycle.
