CITY OF HIGH POINT NORTH CAROLINA August 26, 2004 Dave Goodrich Division of Water Quality / NPDES Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Subject: Minor Permit Modification J SEP City of High Point — Frank L. Ward WTP NPDES Permit No. NCO081256 Guilford County Dear Mr. Goodrich, Please find enclosed a NPDES Short Permit Application for the Frank L. Ward WTP. After talking to Cory Basinger in the Winston Salem regional office and Susan Wilson in the Raleigh office, it was suggested that I fill out this application and give you a detailed explanation of what we wanted to do. We have 2 alum sludge lagoons in which we put our treatment solids. At the present time our south lagoon is fulL what we would like to do is to permit another discharge point on the north lagoon until we can get the south lagoon cleaned. This point would only be used temporarily or if we needed to do maintenance on the other lagoon. At no time would we use both discharge points simultaneously. The temporary discharge point would be approximately 400 ft. up stream of the original point and would be sampled as permit requirements dictate. A diagram has been enclosed to illiterate its relation to the original discharge point. We would call it 002. If you have any other questions, please contact me at 336-883-3410. Thank you.
