I apologize for the 2nd email. I accidentally hit send versus save as
wanted to attach the videos I recorded showing those who are unaware,
of what the noise levels are here in our neighborhoods, to bad I can't
attach smells. One was recorded a few months ago, the other more
recently. I also attached a photo showing my home and Justin's home in
relation to the Aqua plant. A neighbor recently saw an aqua truck at the
entrance of our neighborhood, when stopped to stop to make sure they
were okay and they said they were in the area trying to locate
smells. She told them that they wouldn't smell it way up at the entrance,
and gave them my address and name, I never heard from them and they
never came to my house.

Thanks, Ms. Keefer,
I'd like to ask a few questions since on several occasions Aqua has
encroached on my property. In recent years I have had to request that
Aqua remove ports potties from my woods, I often clean up trash
thrown in my woods, and have had trees cut down which I didn't
authorize. Maybe we can establish a property line and have a fence built
to help buffer sounds and smells from that place?
- Can you confirm your definition of "effluent"? What exactly does that mean? Are
you saying water from that Aqua plant is putting water into Goose Creek?
- Which wood line were the trucks positioned in when they were doing
this? I'll attach a map for convenience.
- What was in the air when we were breathing in the smoke and smells
from the sewage trucks producing "effluent"? Can you specify what
exactly we were breathing into our lungs?

Aqua is aware of the concerns reported by various parties on Friday, December 151" regarding sound, odor, and smoke
coming from the Country Woods East wastewater treatment facility that day. We have formal processes set-up to
address concerns reported to our customer service department (877.987.2782) so we may understand the details of
the situation and mobilize the appropriate personnel to address the concern. In this situation, please know that the
sound, smoke, and odor reported this past Friday was directly related to Country Woods East wastewater treatment
plant operations. Here is a summary of the routine maintenance that was happening on site that day:
• Vacuum trucks were on site Friday completing routine maintenance (haul sludge) at the Country Woods East
facility; we understand this work extended past S:OOpm.
• This activity was a component of normal operating procedures and not an emergency event.
• Vacuum trucks can get louder when they increase the power necessary for the vacuum system to work properly.
• Some smoke from the vehicle and odor from the effluent being vacuumed will typically result during the
vacuuming process.
2

The area being pumped out was on the perimeter of the plant site and the trucks were positioned next to the
wood line.
. Aqua will ensure non -emergency maintenance is completed during normal working hours moving forward.
Shannon Becker, Aqua NC President, shared in his December 15Y email that Aqua has brought in an engineering firm to
evaluate the facility. This work is ongoing, and we will provide an update to our community partners when we know
more.

Same here.
We have had a horrible burning/electrical smell and even a smokey haze earlier this evening, we
could see smoke through the trees.
Our property connects directly with the Aqua plant, I'm curious what Aqua's explanation for all the
noise and smells we've had today.

Mr. Eales,
Aqua is aware of the odor complaint in the Country Woods East community. We
are, and have been, working to evaluate this situation as previously explained.
When we consider odor in a wastewater system, which separately includes a
collection system and treatment facility, we evaluate the cause and possible
options to help mitigate odors naturally associated with the treatment process. In
2021, when we investigated a separate odor complaint in this system, we
determined they resulted from high levels of certain bacteria in two segments of
the sewer collection system. We then installed chemical feeds to reduce the
bacteria levels and verified the positive results.
Our wastewater treatment facility is being operated properly and meeting state
permit requirements, as has been verified by DEQ in previous communications.
When we recently received the new odor complaint claiming odors were coming
from the facility, we investigated and were not able to identify an odor issue on our
site that matched the description. As a result, we brought in an engineering firm to
further evaluate the facility to identify if an issue exists. If the engineering firm
determines the source of the issue is our facility, we will ask the firm to propose
ways we can resolve the issue, and Aqua will take appropriate action.
We will update you and our community partners when we know more.

I'm very surprised that I've not even received one single response to my
email of November 23 from anybody, until today!
I am astounded that no one cares about this issue enough to actually take
action!
This evening, the stench is too terrible.
Will someone take responsibility and get this dealt with ???

We can't be expected to breathe this in !

Last night was terrible, why must our

and why should I be breathing that into

Treatment Plant - Complaint
Hi Alex and others,
I apologize for the delay in responding to
your email. DEQ-Division of Water
Resources (DWR) staff from this office
have been working in the background
since you and others reached out to us
this week to report continuing odor
problems that Aqua's Country Woods
wastewater treatment facility is creating
in the neighborhood. Unfortunately,
DWR's attempts to get Aqua to respond
to us were unsuccessful.
As Aqua had been unresponsive to our
calls and emails, DWR staff visited the
site yesterday unannounced. While I'm
glad to report that DWR staff were
11

greeted by Aqua staff and an engineering
contractor who suggested they were
considering steps they could take, DWR
has not yet been presented with a plan
to address the problems. There are
several operational, engineering, and on
the ground approaches that could be
taken by Aqua to address the odors and
DWR has requested that Aqua submit a
plan to us to do just that.
We understand that until Aqua
implements such a plan, there are likely
to be additional odor problems as
wastewater treatment is a biological
process that will always generate some
level of odor. Until that time, we'd
request that the following be included in
future concerns about the facility:
