Ron Boone of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection (CEI) at the subject facility on 18 August 2009. You were not present for the inspection. An inspection checklist is attached for your records and the inspection findings are summarized below. 2. The facility is located at 228 New Heights Drive, Reidsville, Rockingham County, NC. The facility discharges treated domestic wastewater to an unnamed tributary to Wolf Island Creek, which is currently classified as a Class C water in the Roanoke River Basin. 3. Mr. Boone was not able to locate the septic tank, sand filter or discharge pipe for the system. He was able to locate the chlorinator, but could not open the tubes for inspection. Please keep in mind that failure to pump the tank at least every five years is not only a violation of the general permit, but could also cause irreparable damage to downstream treatment units that would be costly to replace, as well as cause unsanitary conditions at the residence for you and your family. You should maintain records of all tank pumping along with all other records (i.e. technical drawings/specifications) you have for the system so they're readily available during future inspections by this office. 4. Also, please note that you should use the 2-5/8 inch or 3 inch diameter chlorine tablets that are rated for use with wastewater. Using tablets rated for swimming pools is more expensive and less efficient. Also, you should keep both chlorinator tubes stocked with tablets to a level slightly above the normal water level in the chlorinator. This provides more chlorine contact than using just a single tube. If the tablets you're using are not rated for use with wastewater North Carolina Division of Water Quality,Winston-Salem Regional Office Location:585 Waughtown St.Winston-Salem,North Carolina 27107 One Phone:336-771-50001 FAX:336-771-46301 Customer Service:1-877-623-6748 North Carolina Internet:www.ncwaterquality.org Naturally An Equal Opportunity\Affirmative Action Employer (i.e. rated for use with swimming pools), please use attachment #3 to find a supplier for tablets that are rated for wastewater. This rating should be indicated on the container or the supplier should be able to tell you whether they're or not. 5. According to our files, no analytical monitoring of the discharge has been accomplished to date. Please take samples and have them analyzed as required in the permit (Attachment #4) at your next possible sampling opportunity. 6. Please note that your permit for this facility is currently expired. The permit expired 31 July 2007. Furthermore, annual fees for the permit have not been paid for the years 2005-2009. You are therefore discharging illegally. To renew the permit, you must fill out and submit the attached renewal form (Attachment #2). Please follow all instructions on the form very carefully. Upon receipt of the completed form, DWQ's Central Office (CO) will put the permit/COC in your current name and send it to you. 7. Please be aware that the Division may assess civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day, per violation for failure to comply with the requirements of NCG550000, as well as for discharging without a valid permit. Please review the NCG550000 general permit in detail to familiarize yourself with all requirements and to ensure you maintain future compliance. If this office, or DWQ's CO, does not receive correspondence from you within 30 days of your receipt of this letter, we will recommend to the Director that enforcement action be taken against you. 3. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Should you have any questions regarding the inspection, the permit, the renewal form, or anything else, please feel free to contact Mr. Boone or me at (336) 771-5000. Sincerely, ek/ Steve W.
