Town of Mocksville Solids Handling Plan
NPDES Permit # NCO089290
Recently, in 2015 the Town of Mocksville constructed a residual solids handling facility
at the Mocksville Water Treatment Plant. The sedimentation basin solids and the filter
backwash water is sent to two equalization storage tanks onsite. The solids are allowed
to settle and the clear water is decanted from the equalization storage tanks,
dechlorinated and is discharged to an Unnamed Tributary to Bear Creek. Once there
are enough residual solids to haul, the Town's land application contractor (EMA
Resources) will pump the residuals from the equalization tank and land apply per the
Town of Mocksville's Land Application Permit.
