Subject: Pretreatment Compliance Inspection
Town of Tarboro
Tarboro WWTP - NPDES Permit No. NCO020605
Edgecombe County
Dear Mr. Nichols:
On September 25, 2023, Cheng Zhang of the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) conducted a
compliance inspection of Town of Tarboro's pretreatment program. The assistance given by Mr.
Kevin Peaden, the WWTP Supervisor, was greatly appreciated. The inspection report is attached.
Findings during the inspection were as follows:
1. The Town has three Significant Industrial Users (SIUs), one is also a Categorical Industrial
User (CIU). It was noted that no SIUs were in SNC for the most recent two semi-annual
periods.
2. A review of the files containing the pretreatment program elements was conducted. These
files were well organized and up to date.
3. Long Term Monitoring Plan (LTMP) data were reviewed during the inspection. It was
noted that all locations were sampled with required frequencies and all samples analyzed
with required detection levels since the last inspection.
4. The pretreatment inspection file review included Johnson Controls (Permit No. TOT-006)
and Sara Lee Frozen Bakery (Permit No. TOT-001), and Mayo Knitting Mill (Permit No.
TOT-003). During the most recent semi-annual period, Sara Lee Frozen Bakery and Mayo
Knitting Mill were in compliance. It was noted that Johnson Control's Industrial User
Permit (IUP) expired on June 24, 2023. The POTW renewed the IUP on October 15,
2023. The POTW submitted the renewed IUP to the Division for review and approval
on November 22, 2023.
