Pretreatment Compliance Inspection
Town of Clayton
NPDES Permit No. NCO025453
Johnston County
On June 26, 2024, Cheng Zhang of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a Pretreatment Compliance
Inspection (PCI) of the program at Town of Clayton. The assistance given by Mr. David White, the
wastewater operations superintendent, and Mr. James Warren, the Pretreatment Coordinator, was greatly
appreciated. The inspection report is attached. Findings during the inspection were as follows:
There are three Significant Industrial Users (SIUs), which are also Categorical Industrial Users
(CIUs). It was noted that Novo Nordisk API was in Significant Non -Compliance (SNC) during
the two most recent six-month periods.
2. The pretreatment inspection file review included Novo Nordisk IFP (Permit No. 0003-02), Novo
Nordisk API (Permit No. 0002-05), and Grifols (Permit No. 0001-02). The files needed for
review were available, contained all required elements. During the second six-month period of
2023, Novo Nordisk IFP and Grifols were compliant. Novo Nordisk API was in SNC for
multiple violations for TDS. Industrial User Pretreatment Permits (IUPs) for all three SIUs were
renewed on May 1, 2024, close to two years past the IUPs expiration date. Please submit Novo
API's IUP to the Division for review and approval.
3. A review of the files containing the pretreatment program elements was conducted. These files
were well organized and up to date. The Town submitted update of Headwork Analysis on May
3, 2024, and update of Industrial Waste Survey on February 5, 2024, well past the required due
dates.
4. The review of Long Term Monitory Plan data indicated that all locations were sampled with
required frequencies since the last inspection.
5. The program has recovered from the setback caused by personnel turnover in the past two years,
submitted updates of HWA and IWS in 2024, and renewed IUPs for all three SIUs in May 2024.
