Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO045128
Sylvan Elementary School WWTP
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Jeffries:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly,
we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
Please note that your facility discharges to a nutrient -sensitive water (NS),)V. In 1997 the Clean Water
Responsibility Act (House Bill 515) was enacted, with the intent to strengthen the control of nutrients from all
discharges to NSW graters. Facilities permitted to discharge greater than 500,000 gallons per day (and any new or
expanding facilities) will be subject to nutrient limitations for total nitrogen and total phosphorus according to House
Bill 515 requirements. Since modifications to treatment systems are expensive and time consuming, it is highly
recommended that you begin planning for this possibility now if a future expansion is anticipated at your facility.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you,
you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this
letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina
General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North
Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain
other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land
Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be
required. If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Charles Weaver at telephone number (919)
733-5083, extension 511.
Sincerely,
