This final permit includes no major changes from the draft permit sent to Mr. Jerry Tweed on April 27, 2005.
Please take special notice that this permit includes daily maximum limits for ammonia and increased summer
monitoring for fecal coliform. These conditions will become effective on August 1, 2005 (the effective date of the
permit).
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

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

A(3.) SPECIAL CONDITION — Flow Expansion Request
Concurrent with any application for an Authorization to Construct that results in an expansion of
flow, the facility shall submit an updated flow justification and permit compliance review.
a) The flow justification shall include at least the following:
1. Provide Basic Identification of the Project
■ Facility name
• County
■ Facility address
■ Facility telephone number
■ Preparer's name
• Preparer's mailing address and telephone number
2. Provide a detailed description of the project requiring an expansion of wastewater
disposal. The wastewater flows should be calculated according to 15A NCAC 2H .0219.
Demonstrate and justify the need for flow volumes, .to include any flow reductions
realized through flow -restricting devices. The use of flow -restricting or low -flow
devices should be investigated. Report findings should include flow reduction
projections. Updated plat maps, a time schedule for connection, and documentation of
commitments shall be required.
3. If existing facilities will be used as part of an expansion, discuss those existing units
including present and past performance, unit capacities, and inadequacies of each.

Permit NCO063355
A. (4.) SPECIAL CONDITION — Spill Notification
(a) Contacting Public Health Directors
The facility must notify the Iredell, Lincoln, Catawba, and Mecklenburg County Public Health Directors
within 12 hours of first knowledge by the owner/operator of any discharge of untreated wastewater to
waters of the State or a discharge from the wastewater treatment plant that has not received adequate
disinfection due to a malfunctioning treatment unit.
The County Public Health Directors can be contacted using the following information:
Catawba County Health Director
30701 Ph Ave. Dr. S.E.
Hickory, NC 28602
828-326-5801
Lincoln County Health Director
151 Sigmon Rd.
Lincolnton, NC 28092-8643
704-736-8634
(b) Public Notification
Iredell County Health Director

704-878-5302
Mecklenburg County Health Director
700 N. Tryon Rd.
Charolotte, NC 28202
704-336-5567
The facility must notify the public of untreated wastewater spills. Wastewater facility owners or
operators must issue a press release after a discharge to surface waters of 1,000 gallons within 48 hours of
first knowledge of the spill by the owner/operator. The press release must be issued to "all electronic and
print news media outlets that provide general coverage in the county where the discharge occurred." A
copy of the press release must be maintained for one year by the owner/operator. This press release is
required in addition to the permit requirement of contacting the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(DWQ).
If a discharge of 15,000 gallons or more reaches surface water, a public notice is required in addition to
the press release. The public notice must be placed in a newspaper having general circulation in the
county in which the discharge occurred and each county downstream that is significantly affected by the
discharge. At a minimum the notice should be published in a newspaper of general circulation in Iredell,
Lincoln, Catawba, and Mecklenburg Counties. If a discharge of 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater or more
reaches surface waters, the DWQ regional office must be contacted to determine in what additional
counties, if any, a public notice must be published. A copy of these public notices and proof of
publication must be sent to the DWQ within 30 days of publication. The copy should be sent to the
following address:

C. Subsurface: Insufficient area, restrictive topography.
d. Other disposal options: None that we are aware.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The permittee, Heater Utilities (HU), has requested renewal of the subject permit. There
have been no changes to the NPDES permit since it was last renewed. HU has, however, made
many safety and operational improvements to the WWTP such as the repairing of deteriorating
tankage, pipes, and walk -ways that should improve overall operational flexibility.
The existing tankage continues to deteriorate, and repairs are becoming more and more
frequent. For this reason, HU is considering a total replacement of the existing W WTP with a
completely new facility that would be located on the same site. There is no timetable as to when
HU expects to initiate the WWTP replacement. HU is also considering increasing the hydraulic
capacity of the WWTP to 0.075 MGD, which is the maximum permitted flow authorized by the
subject permit.
HU has also implemented a sewer use policy, approved by the NC Utilities Commission,
that allows HU to require grease removal by their commercial customers. Commercial producers
of grease must now install grease traps that will remove grease. The high grease loads resulted in
influent BOD's that, at times exceeded 1600 mg/l, and had severely disrupted WWTP operation.
As a result of the implementation of the sewer use policy, influent grease levels have returned to
manageable levels.

Pending receipt, review, and approval of the draft permit, it is recommended that the
Permit be renewed as requested.
