Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Single Family Wastewater Treatment System
Permit NogNCG550155
Chatham County
Dear Mr. Hinton:
On December 2, 2014,Ted Cashion from the Raleigh Regional Office visited your single-family residence (SFR)
wastewater treatment system to evaluate compliance with the above permit to discharge wastewater. Your
help and assistance was greatly appreciated with your follow-up telephone call to complete the inspection.
The following items were discussed:
1. You stated the septic tank was pumped out in -2012.
2. The correct type of chlorine tablets (approved for wastewater use) are used for disinfection.
3. There have been no problems with the treatment system.
4. Due to low flows to the system,there has not been a discernible discharge. As discussed, please
monitor the effluent pipe and collect required samples when a discharge occurs. Please submit sample
results to this office.
You are reminded that licensed plumbers must be used to make plumbing changes within your home. All
wastewater from the home (including washing machines) must be connected to the treatment system. If you
have questions or comments about this inspection or the requirements to take corrective action, please contact
Ted Cashion at 919-791-4254.
Sincerely,
