DANIEL SMITH Director NORTH CAROLINA Environmental Quality August 3, 2021 CERTIFIED MAIL ITEM - 7018 1830 0001 8037 2100 - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED Joey Cupp, Environmental Manager Pilot Travel Centers, LLC 5508 Lonas Drive Knoxville, TN 37909 Delivered via email and via certified mail Subject: PERMIT REVOCATION, RENEWAL APPLICATION DENIAL, AND OWNERSHIP/NAME CHANGE DENIAL NPDES PERMIT NCO086053 Pilot Travel Center #393 Haywood County Dear Mr. Cupp: In a letter dated March 1, 2021, the Division of Water Resources (DWR) provided Pilot Travel Center, LLC (Pilot Travel Center) notice of DWR's intent to revoke the NPDES permit for Pilot Travel Center #393 — Permit # NCO086053 (Permit). DWR received confirmation that Pilot Travel Center received DWR's notice on March 5, 2021. DWR received Pilot Travel Center's letter, dated April 30, 2021, objecting to revocation of the Permit. Due to Pilot Travel Center's objection and in accordance with applicable law, DWR public noticed its intent to revoke the Permit, deny Pilot Travel Center's pending renewal application, and deny a pending ownership/name change request. The public notice was published in The Mountaineer on June 2, 2021 and the comment period on the notice ended on July 2, 2021. DWR reviewed the public comments, including comments submitted by Pilot Travel Center and Junaluska Sanitary District (JSD). Revocation and Renewal Application Denial: Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02H .0112(b)(3) and 15A NCAC 02H .0114(a), DWR has the authority to revoke a NPDES permit for "a change in any condition that requires either a temporary or permanent reduction or limitation of the permitted discharge." Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02H .0112, DWR has the authority to deny an application where necessary to effectuate the D F QJ� North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Water Resources 512 North Salisbury Street 11617 Mail Service Center I Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 o+/ 919.707.9000 Joey Cupp NCO086053 Page 2 purposes of Article 21 Chapter 143 of the General Statutes. Similarly, pursuant to 40 CFR §122.64, DWR may terminate a permit or deny a permit renewal application for: A change in any condition that requires either a temporary or permanent reduction or elimination of any discharge or sludge use or disposal practice controlled by the permit (for example, plant closure or termination of discharge by connection to a POTW) (emphasis added). Part II, Section B of the Permit reiterates those legal authorities. Pilot Travel Center demolished its wastewater treatment plant and eliminated its discharge by connecting to the Waynesville publicly owned treatment works (POTW) through JSD's collection system. In December of 2020, DWR's Asheville Regional Office conducted an inspection that verified that Pilot Travel Center's treatment system has been closed out and there is no longer a point source discharge to surface waters. Accordingly, DWR hereby revokes the Permit and denies Pilot Travel Center's renewal application. Ownership/Name Change Request: Pursuant to 40 CFR § 122.63(d), DWR may do a minor modification to a NPDES permit to: [aJllow for a change in ownership or operational control of a facility where the Director determines that no other change in the permit is necessary, provided that a written agreement containing a specific date for transfer of permit responsibility, coverage, and liability between the current and new permittees has been submitted to the Director. Despite the wastewater treatment plant being demolished and discharge eliminated, Pilot Travel Center submitted a ownership/name change request in October 2020.1 With this letter, DWR is revoking the Permit and denying Pilot Travel Center's renewal application, so the Permit cannot be transferred to JSD. Additionally, ownership or control of the facility that is the subject of the Permit has not changed per 40 CFR § 122.63(d). The sales agreement even states that there was no transfer of "any physical assets, such as piping, buildings, tanks, pumps, wwtp appurtnaces [sic]." Instead, the sales agreement purports to transfer ownership of the Permit itself. However, State and federal law as well as the NPDES permit itself make clear that transferring an NPDES permit is a regulatory process requiring DWR action. Moreover, the ownership/name change request submitted essentially asks DWR to transfer a NPDES permit where the discharge was eliminated and treatment facilities razed to authorize a potential new discharge of unknown wastewater quality and quantity from a potential new WWTP of unknown specification and location. NPDES permits must be issued with conditions 1 The Cover Letter for the ownership/name change request is signed by JSD, but Joey Cupp of Pilot Travel Center signed as the "applicant" on the ownership/name change form. To the extent that the ownership/name change request is attributable to JSD, DWR has provided a copy of this letter to JSD to provide notice to JSD of the denial. Joey Cupp NC0086053 Page 3 that account for the characteristics of the waste stream in a manner that protects the waters receiving the final discharge. Here, DWR has no information about the waste stream for treatment, the proposed treatment system, or the specific location of the potential new discharge. Accordingly, DWR hereby denies the ownership/name change request for the Permit. DWR's actions can be contested as provided in Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes by filing a Petition for a Contested Case Hearing (Petition) with the North Carolina Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH) within sixty (60) calendar days. Requirements for filing and serving a Petition are set forth in Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes and Title 26 of the North Carolina Administrative Code.

In addition, on July 22-23, 2010, the following repair and routine maintenance items were performed on the WWTP, in order to increase aeration treatment and improve the levels of ammonia in the treated effluent: 1. Installed new belts on the blowers. 2. Changed out oil in the blowers. 3. Greased the motors and blowers. 4. Repaired the 2" line at the Equalization tank where the water is pumped up to the first flow splitter box. 5.

Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality The NPDES Unit received your request for a permit modification. Based on adverse comments from EPA, the Division was required to implement daily maximum NH3 as N (ammonia) limits for non -municipal facilities, as required by the Code of Federal Regulations. This implementation policy was adopted October 15, 2002. The daily maximum value is five times the monthly average value (this multiplier was established based on a review of treatment capability at various non - municipal plants). However, daily maximum values are capped at 35.0 mg/L, regardless of the monthly average value. This permit includes both monthly average and daily maximum limits for ammonia nitrogen.

Supplement to NPDES Permit Application (Pursuant to Administrative Code Section: 15A NCAC 211.0100-Wastewater Discharges to Surface Waters) 1. Subpart 0105 ( c )(1) Description of the origin,type and flow of waste which is proposed to be discharged. Domestic wastewater will be received from the Pilot Travel Center and Midway Motel. The Pilot Travel Center is an auto/truck stop with a 134 seat restaurant, 4 showers with water saving shower heads, 4 standard commodes, 4 low flow commodes and 3 urinals in the men's restroom and 3 low flow commodes in the women's restroom. The Midway Motel has 20 rooms and one (1) bedroom apartment with water saving shower heads. All water saving shower heads have a maximum capacity of 1.5 GPM. The Pilot Travel Center currently discharges an average of 5,100 GPD and the Midway Motel discharges an average of 1,900 GPD for a total of 7,000 GPD. The wastewater treatment and disposal facilities need to be constructed to prevent the closing of the motel and travel center which would result in the direct loss of employment for approximately 61 persons. The proposed treatment and disposal facilities are needed because of failure of the existing on -site subsurface treatment and disposal system (septic tank and drainfield). As required by Administrative Code Section: 15A NCAC 2H .0100-Wastewater Discharges to Surface Waters, Subpart .0105 ( c )(1), "flow shall be determined in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(1)". Design flow rates are as follows: • Midway Motel 20 rooms x 120 gal/room = 2,400 GPD (1) One bedroom apartment x 120 gal/bedroom = 240 GPD* *Minimum volume per day per dwelling unit • Pilot Travel Center 134 restaurant seats x 50 GPD/seat for 24 hr restaurant = 6,700 GPD 14 water closets and urinals x 250 GPD/ w.c. or urinal = 3,500 GPD 4 showers x 10 gal/person x max. 48 persons/day/shower = 1,920 GPD Total wastewater flow rate 14,760 GPD SAY 15,000 GPD Note: Wastewater treatment facility aeration reactor volume required for 15,000 GPD flow and expected average CBOD5 and TSS concentrations of 320 mg/l is 19,962 gallons (say 20,000). The wastewater treatment facility design will also include reserve capacity of 10,000 GPD of standard domestic sewage with average concentrations of 200 mg/1 CBOD5 and TSS. Total wastewater treatment facility aeration reactor volume is 30,000 gallons with a permitted capacity of 25,000 GPD. 2. Subpart 0105 ( c )(2) A summary of waste treatment and disposal options that were considered and why the proposed system and point of discharge were selected. The existing on -site subsurface treatment and disposal system which was utilized for a number of years has failed. Soil conditions are apparently not too conducive to percolation. A Public Owned Treatment Works Wastewater Facility is not located within several miles of the travel center and motel. From a design standpoint it would not be practical to pump raw sewage the great distances necessary and it would also Supplement.doc Page 1 of3 9604-393 Pilot Travel Center No. 393 not be economically feasible to do so. Soil conditions are apparently not conducive to subsurface disposal or land application. The most feasible solution to the existing failure of the on -site subsurface treatment and disposal system is to construct an on - sit w ctewater treatment facility with disposal of the treated effluent into the Crawford Branch or to its discharge into the Pigeon River. Wastewater residuals owed from the liquid phase of the treatment process and further reduced '.t by aerobic stabilization prior to disposal at a permitted facility capable of receiving, treating and disposing of residuals. 3. Subpart .0105 ( c )(3) A narrative description of the proposed treatment works. The proposed treatment works will consist of the following key components: • A 0.030 MGD wastewater treatment plant which operates in the Extended Aeration mode of the Activated Sludge Process. The proposed plant will be a precast modular plant with the following major components: (1) 5,000 Gallon Equalization Basin (6) 5,000 Gallon Aeration Basin (2) 5,200 Gallon Settling Basin with Scum Removal and Effluent Weir (1) 5,000 Gallon Aerobic Digester (2) 1,250 Gallon Chlorine Contact Basin (1) 500 Gallon Post Aeration Basin (2) Rotary Positive Displacement Blowers with 5 HP Moto�l An effluent outfall for surface water discharge into the Crawford.Branch Residuals Disposal: Removal of solids residuals will be monitored by the facility operator. When necessary, residuals will be removed from the digester and sent to another permitted treatment facility (to be determined) for further processing. 4. Subpart 0105 ( c )(4) A general location map showing orientation of the facility with reference to at least two geographic references (numbered roads named streams/rivers, etc.). A location map showing these features in attached. 5. SubDart .0105 ( c )(5), A scale location plan of the site showing location of the proposed treatment works and the proposed point of discharge. A scale location plan of the site showing these features in attached. 6. Subpart.0105 ( c )(6), Special studies or modeling maybe required in cases where impacts of the discharge cannot be readily determined by the Division. Special studies or modeling is not anticipated for the proposed treatment works. 7. Subpart0105 ( c )(7) A statement to demonstrate financial qualification and substantial previous compliance with federal and state laws regulations and rules for the protection of the environment as required by G.S. 143-215. 1 (b)(4)(b). A statement attesting to these qualifications is attached. 8. Subpart 0105 ( i) Applicants for permits for new nonmunicipal domestic wastewater discharges shall file a notarized statement indicating whether or not each city or counly government having, jurisdiction over any part of the lands on which the proposed facility is to be located has a zoning or subdivision ordinance in effect, and, io/`3j /gam if such ordinance is in effect whether or not the proposed facility is consistent with the ordinance. Supplement.doc Page 2 of 3 9604-393 Pilot Travel Center No. 393 f Mr. Chris Boyd, Haywood County Planner, has advised that there are no county ordinances in effect that the facility must comply with.

Barrineau and Associates, Inc. 1306 S.E. 18th Street Ocala, Florida 34471 Dear Mr. Barrineau, This letter is to notify you that the construction of a wastewater treatment facility to serve the auto/truck stop and Midway Motel at or near the intersection of I-40 and Highway 209 is not regulated by county zoning laws because Haywood County does not have zoning. In addition, the construction of a wastewater treatment facility would not be regulated by the subdivision ordinance so it is therefore in compliance �xith the ordinance.

C.- Permit Renewal Comments and Summary NC Division of Water Quality Permits and Engineering Unit March 5, 1997 Facility: Pilot Travel Center No. 393 Permit Number: NC0086053 County: Haywood Flow: 0.025 MGD Receiving Stream: Stingy Branch Stream Class: C GENERAL COMMENTS: This application was originally received in e/ylate November of 1996. I reviewed tha application and accompanying Engineering Alternatives Analysis and forwarded a memo to Dave Goodrich su zing my comments on December 2, 1996. Although the alternatives analysis was not considered acceptable, KiHaynes indicated that there was no other alternative. The application was subsequently accepted on January 31, 1997 by Dave Goodrich. At that time, a staff report and wasteload was requested. The wasteload was received on March 3, 1997 with the permit drafted March 5, 1997. The permit was drafted in accordance with thw wasteload allocation. All monitoring frequencies have been set in accordance with the 2B .0500 regulations for a a class II facility. Prepared b n P Y- January 30, 1997 MEMORANDUM To: File From: Mark McIntire NPDES Group Subject: Pilot Travel New NPDES permit application Haywood County I reviewed this package for an adequate Engineering Alternatives Analysis on December 2, 1996. Dave Goodrich subsequently held on to this package until January 24, 1997 while deciding whether or not to return it. After discussions with Dave Goodrich and Forrest Westall of the ARO, it was decided to accept the package as is - there seems to be no other feasible alternative (that from both I*th Haynes and Forrest Westall). Also, this facility is incurring significant expense to continue to pump and hall. To this end, this package is being placed in the Processing Assiiant's box this day for preliminary processing and assignment. Two checks were originally submitted with the package - one for the permit fee and one for the ATC fee. The ATC check will be returned with the acknowledgement letter with an indication that this fee should be sent to the Division at such time as plans and specifications are ready for review. December 2, 1996 MEMORANDUM To: Dave Goodrich NPDES Supervisor From: Mark McIntire 14f— NPDES Group Subject: Pilot Travel Center No. 393 w/hotel Haywood County The Division recently received a discharge application for a new facility located in Waynesville. The facility is a truck stop with a restaurant and hotel. The proposed discharge is 25,000 GPD. The facility currently discharges to a subsurface disposal facility which is failing. This is a new discharge and thus requires an alternatives to discharge analysis. There was no such analysis provided. The applicant did mention that "Soil conditions are apparently not too conducive to percolation" and that a POTW "is not located within several miles of the travel center and motel." These vague descriptions should not be considered acceptable. There is no discussion of costs, distance to POTW or sewer line extension, soil type or boring information. There is also no information verifying the failure of the current non -discharge option. I spoke with Kieth Haynes of the Asheville Regional Office. Hk :ndicated to me that the facility had indeed contacted him. He said that there is likely plenty of flow in the receiving stream although I could not verify the flow from our flow data. Kieth also indicated that, if necessary, the facility could run a discharge line to the Pigeon River. In terms of alternatives, Kieth indicated that there are none. There are apparently no sewer extensions nearby and the opporturnity for on -site subsurface disposal is non-existent due to available land and soil conditions. The facility also included a $150.00 ATC fee with their submittal. I told Kieth that if we did indeed accept this application (at this point there seems to little reason not to), the ATC check would be returned to them with the acknowledgement letter, indicating that an ATC request should be made upon receipt of the NPDES permit.
