Dear Mr. Freeze,
On September 20, 2018, Kelli Park and Jenny Graznak, of this office conducted a
compliance evaluation inspection on the wastewater discharge system located at the
above address. The State requires the Division of Water Resources to inspect these types
of systems every five years. According to our records, yo,u are the current owner of this
property, but no one was home during the inspection and we do not have a phone number
for you.
Miss Park and Ms. Graznak were unable to locate the chlorination tubes and effluent pipe.
Please be aware that the permit requires that the chlorinator be adequately supplied with
chlorine tablets for proper operation. The effluent being discharged in the stream should
also be checked to ensure that no solids are being discharged and that there are no
impacts to the stream.
The permit also requires that the septic tank contents be pumped out every 3-5 years to
prevent solids from clogging the sand filter system. It is unknown when the system was
pumped last. Please keep records of septic tank pumping on hand as a historical record
and proof that you had the tank pumped.
It is unknown whether the effluent water has been consistently tested by a laboratory.
Water samples from the effluent are required to be analyzed at least once a year by a
certified laboratory. These records are required to be maintained and should be shared
with NCDEQ upon request. Since you were not home the day of inspection this was not
evaluated. A copy of the permit monitoring requirements is attached to this letter for
reference of what should be monitored.

Failure to properly operate and maintain the system can result in expensive repair costs
as well as failure of the system to properly treat the wastewater. If you have any questions
regarding maintenance, operations, the permit, or this inspection do not hesitate to call
us.
Please keep this letter with your records for the system along with copies of invoices from
the Division for the annual permit fee, the Certificate of Coverage, records of septic tank
pumping, maintenance and repair records, etc.
Please be aware that violations of your NPDES permit, or the NC statutes and
regulations under which it is promulgated, are subject to fines of up to $25,000 per day,
per violation, as set forth in NC General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.6A, Enforcement
Procedures, Civil Penalties. Your immediate attention is greatly appreciated.
Please contact Ms. Graznak at [phone] or Miss Park at (336)-776-9689 to make
sure that we have a phone number on file for you and to discuss your wastewater system,
data monitoring, and the accompanying permit. A follow up inspection will also be
scheduled with you to locate and evaluate the wastewater system.
Sincerely,
•
