Clifford Cain's assistance and cooperation during the inspection was greatly appreciated. An inspection checklist is attached for your records and inspection findings are summarized below. General Information The wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is located at 6206 Reidsville Road in Kernersville, Forsyth County, NC, at approximate coordinates 36.2132370,-80.0644000. The permit authorizes Allegiance Healthcare Investors, LLC, (Allegiance) to operate this 0.01 MGD WWTP, which consists of a bar screen, aeration basin, secondary clarifier, aerobic digester, tablet chlorination, and tablet dechlorination. Allegiance is further authorized to discharge the treated effluent from this WWTP via outfall 001, which is located at approximate coordinates 36.2136110,-80.0636110, into an unnamed tributary to Belews Creek, this section of which is currently classified as Class C waters in the Roanoke River Basin. Site Review The plant itself appears to be in good condition. Everything is currently operational and the plant is meeting effluent limitations the majority of the time. No significant maintenance issues were noted. The mixed liquor in the aeration basin appeared healthy and the settled water in the clarifier looked clear with very few small solids overflowing the weir. There was some floating scum on the clarifier surface and some weir blockage but it was minimal and Mr. Cain stated he normally removes the scum at least three times per week. Mr. Cain is currently using two chlorination tubes and three dechlorination tubes. Mr. Cain is doing a great job operating the plant. Documentation Review All documentation was reviewed. Mr. Cain has done an excellent job producing and keeping the records needed on file.
