Introduction y` t This Engineering Alt natives Analysis (E.A.A.) is submitted in support of an appli ation for a modification of NPDES permit NC0083925. The mo fication would be an increase in the permitted flow, from .(14 MG to .20 MGD. This proposal has been prepared in accordance w A NCAC 2H.105(c)(1) through (7) and the Division of ., Water Quality's (DWQ) "Guidance for the Evaluation of Wastewater Disposal Alternatives" (ver. June 9, 2000). The subject permit expansion is intended to serve 167 lots in the last two phases of Salem Glen residential development. As detailed in Appendix A, the wastewater flows have been estimated in accordance with 15 NCAC 2H.0219. The wastewater will be domestic in nature. 2.

Project Description The project to be served is Salem Glen Golf Club and Residential Village. The majority of the project is constructed. Of the approximately 540 lots approved for construction, 373 are or will be served under the existing NPDES permit. The flow from these houses, plus the flow from the Racquet and Swim Club and the golf clubhouse 1 MM will fully utilize the .14 MGD capacity of the existing NPDES permit. This E.A.A. examines the possible ways to provide wastewater service to the remaining 167 lots. The location of the remaining lots is identified on Figure No. 1. These lots are located in Parcel 9 and a �• portion of Parcel 8 on the Salem Glen masterplan. 4. Existing Facilities Ma The existing WWTP is a 100,000 gpd extended aeration WWTP. The plant includes: V' Influent bar rock Influent flow control and splitter box 20,000 gallon flow equalization basin Duplex submersible flow equalization pumps Dual 50,000 gallon aeration basins Dual clarification Tablet chlorinators and de -chlorinators, backup to ultraviolet disinfection system Ultraviolet disinfection unit Dual return sludge airlift pumps Dual skimmer airlift pumps 15,000 gallon sludge holding/thickening chamber Swing -arm decant airlift pump Effluent flow meter One flow equalization blower Dual centrifugal plant blowers The plant is located entirely above ground. Effluent is pumped to discharge point on the Yadkin River. A tertiary filter is not provided because the current discharge limits do not require the use of a filter. The existing treatment plant does not have any known deficiencies. The effluent has been compliant with the permit limitations. The electrical service for the plant has a voltage that differs from the voltage serving the effluent pump station. If the plant were expanded, this would be corrected so that one standby generation could serve �+ both facilities, which would improve the plant's reliability. 5. Phasing IM The Salem Glen project is being constructed in phases. The estimated schedule to construct remaining phases is two to three years. MR B. SUMMARY OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL OPTIONS CONSIDERED The results of this study clearly indicate that an expanded wastewater treatment plant discharging into the Yadkin River is the most economically feasible of all the environmentally feasible options. The various waste treatment and disposal alternatives considered and investigated include: 2 M n s41UT MIR IAf I *c 1x r(*SVMOUNTY: 5MWSFLOTS vionity map Not to sod* 5041WAT 1,1=, ."k 17 did 417s, uo TH toUN'rv-34 20 sw cmwv-, 16 - 8 jxv s F t �,t y J, s AIL:j 1, .7 I Jr, v Ns" E TREAIMFNt'f PLANT 54, - st(w sp w f.

Reuse of treated wastewater (combination of golf course irrigation and discharge to the Yadkin River) with wastewater collection system. The possible combinations of various alternatives are also discussed. For all alternatives, the water supply will be through extension of the public water distribution system of Davidson Water, Inc. All of the alternatives are environmentally feasible options that are routinely permitted in North Carolina. The ranking of the alternatives in terms of environmental feasibility will vary on a case -by -case basis. For example, it is generally agreed that connection to a publicly owned treatment works (POTW) would be the most desirable. An expanded discharge to surface waters is not as environmentally desirable as a connection to a POTW, but an expanded discharge remains an environmentally feasible option if the receiving stream has sufficient assimilative capacity to accept the projected waste load. If the present worth values of the two alternatives in this example were equal, the POTW connection should be selected, according to 15A NCAC 2H.105(c)(2). However, if the connection to the POTW is not reasonably cost effective when compared to the cost of the new surface discharge, then the POTW connection alternative must be discarded from further consideration. 15A NCAC 2H.105(c)(2) states the selected alternative must be the most environmentally sound alternative as selected from THE REASONABLY COST EFFECTIVE options. (Emphasis added.) 3 OR r M M The present worth values of the nine alternatives are: Alt.

No other alternative is reasonably cost effective when compared to the present r worth costs of the new treatment plant. The reuse alternative (No. 9) has a present worth that is only approximately 6% higher than the discharge alternative, but it also relies on an expanded discharge to the Yadkin River for all p' riods when golf course irrigation is not feasible. The new treatmen[ plant and its discharge into the Yadkin River is environmentally f asible, based on the rivers quantity of flow, current DWQ rules and regulations, and the fact that DWQ has r previously issued an NPDES permit for the existing plant. Therefore, the only environmentally sound alternative of the reasonably cost effective alternatives is the new treatment plant and surface discharge, and in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H.105 (c)(2), this alternative is the selected alternative. The reuse alternative is not as cost effective, but should be considered if it is determined that the assimilative capacity of the Yadkin River is limited. Appendix A includes a detailed explanation of each alternative, its capital cost and operation/maintenance (O&M) costs, and its present .a worth. 4 r No C. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED TREATMENT WORKS: The proposed 60,000 gpd treatment facilities would consist of: 1) . Influent screening. OR 2). One 15,000 gallon aerated flow equalization basin (25% of average daily flow (ADF)) . 3). Dual equalization basin pumps and flow control splitter box. 4). Dual train extended aeration plants, each containing one 30,000 gallon aeration basin, one clarifier with a minimum detention time of 4 hours at ADF and a maximum surface overflow rate of 300 gpd/S.F. Each clarifier shall have air lift type pumps to return sludge at a rate up to 150t of ADF, to either the front of the aeration zone or to waste sludge storage. Each clarifier shall also have a skimmer and air lift scum pump. Following the clarifier, the plant will have multiple -cell tertiary filters with redundant backwash and surge pumps, if warranted by the NPDES permit limitations. Filtration rate would be limited to 1.25 m sf through the filter. For the gP / g purposes of this E.A.A., it is assumed that tertiary filters will be required for the plant. Following filtration the plant would have disinfection'by ultraviolet light. A tablet chlorination/dechlorination system would also be provided as a backup system to the W disinfection. Following disinfection would be an indicating, totalizing flow recorder, using a V-notch weir as the primary element. 5). Waste sludge would be stored in a 15,000 gallon aerated sludge holding tank. Assuming a sludge production of 2,000 lbs per M.G. of flow (dry solids basis), the plant would produce 120 lbs./day of waste solids. The sludge storage tank would have equipment to allow the clear supernatant to be returned to the plant influent, thus thickening the sludge. At 120 lbs./day of solids, the sludge storage tank. would have a minimum of 42 days storage at 4% solids. The sludge storage tank would have connections for the removal of thickened �* sludge by a contract operator for land application. Standby power generation and an automatic transfer switch would be provided to serve the facilities. (The receiving stream is currently classified as WS-IV.) 0M 5 no No P" D. GENERAL LOCATION MAP: See Figure 1 E. SCALE SITE PLAN: A site plan for each alternative is included in the appendix. F. SPECIAL STUDIES OR MODELING WHERE DWQ CANNOT DETERMINE IMPACTS OF DISCHARGE: Fft Not required at this time. G. FINANCIAL QUALIFICATIONS/ SUBSTANTIAL PREVIOUS COMPLIANCE STATEMENT: Applicant is a public utility company (Heater Utilities, Inc.), a licensed utility company operating under the regulations of the Utilities Commission. This utility company is in sound financial condition and is in good standing with the Utilities Commission. H. OTHER POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS OF ALTERNATIVES Alternatives No. 1 through No. 9 address the wastewater treatment and disposal alternatives for the subject property, as required by the DWQ Guidance for the Evaluation of Wastewater Disposal Alternatives. For this E.A.A., the treatment systems proposed for the land based disposal alternatives are the most cost effective for the design flows of the alternatives. For example, it would not be cost effective to use a package treatment plant for the relatively small wastewater flows in Alternatives 4 through 7. The only combination of alternatives that is feasible for this E.A.A. is represented by Alternative No. 9, which is essentially a combination of Alternatives No. 6 & 8. I. POTENTIAL ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL LAND: No The potential acquisition of land to provide additional treatment capacity for the land based disposal systems (Alternatives No. 3 through 7) was considered as a part of this E.A.A. Prior to contacting OR any adjacent property owners about the possibility of purchasing portions of their land, an economic evaluation was performed to determine the effect of additional land for each alternative. These economic analyses used the infrastructure costs in Alternative No. 8, the treatment plant alternative (serving 167 lots), and then �► scaled -up the land -based wastewater disposal system in each alternative as required to serve 167 lots. The present worth of the infrastructure, scaled -up wastewater disposal system, and increased annual O&M costs was determined for each alternative and compared to the present worth of Alternative No. 8. In each case the present worth of the scaled -up land based treatment alternative exceeded the present worth of Alternative No. 8, without including any cost for the r .r r r additional land acquisition. Based on the results of these it is apparent that acquisition of additional lands would the present worth ranking of Alternative No. 8; therefore, landowners were contacted. analyses, not change no adjacent The economic analyses that examine the scaled -up alternatives and additional land acquisitions are presented in Appendix B. J. CONCLUSION: As demonstrated in the information included in this E.A.A. and the Appendices, the selection of the expanded discharge alternative was made only after extensive consideration of all the other alternatives. Of the environmentally sound alternatives, an expanded treatment plant discharging treated wastewater to the Yadkin River is the only reasonably cost effective alternative when compared to all of the land based disposal systems. The reuse alternative that provides a combination of golf course irrigation and discharge to the Yadkin River is not as cost effective as the selected alternative, but may be considered as slightly more environmentally sound. The reuse alternative becomes the selected alternative if DWQ determines the assimilative capacity of the Yadkin River cannot allow the implementation of Alternative No. 8. On behalf of the applicant, we request approval of the expansion of the existing discharge permit to a total permitted flow of .20_MGD. e� 7 APPENDIX A DETAILED EXPLANATION OF EACH ALTERNATIVE, ITS CAPITAL COST, ITS OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (O&M) COSTS, AND ITS PRESENT WORTH sd ALTERNATIVE NO. 1 o. CONNECTION TO PUBLICLY OWNED TREATMENT WORKS The Salem Glen project is located approximately 4 miles (measured along public roads) southwest of the Winston-Salem Utility Commission's Muddy Creek WWTP. A wastewater connection to the Muddy Creek WWTP can only be made with a pump station and forcemain, due to the area topography. However, it has been a long-standing policy of the Commission to not accept pumped wastewater flows from drainage basins not served by their gravity sewer collection system. It was confirmed in a conversation with Mr. Robert Huff of the City of Winston-Salem that this policy is still in effect, and more specifically, the City will not agree to accept wastewater from the Salem Glen development. Davidson County recently completed construction of the first phase of the Northwest Davidson County sewer system. The flow from this service area is treated at the Muddy Creek WWTP. Salem Glen is located three to four miles west of the service area of this system. Davidson County's consulting engineer has advised that the county will not accept flows into their system from drainage basins other than Frye's ,�■� Creek and Miller Creek (Salem Glen is not located in either of these drainage basins). It was specifically confirmed that any wastewater flows from Salem Glen would not be accepted into their system. Therefore, connection to a POTW is not an option for this project, and this Alternative is examined no further. am Oft ALTERNATIVE NO. 2 CONNECTION TO A PRIVATELY OWNED TREATMENT PLANT There are not, to the best of the preparer's knowledge, any privately owned treatment plants within a five mile radius that have sufficient capacity to accept a 60,000 gpd flow from Salem Glen. Therefore, any consideration of this option would require an increase in the NPDES permit capacity for that facility. For these reasons, connection to a privately owned wastewater treatment plant in not considered a viable alternative for this E.A.A.

FIG URE No. 2 GRAPHIC SCALE 2000 0 1000 2000 4000 I I WO ALTERNATIVE NO. 3 INDIVIDUAL SUB -SURFACE SYSTEMS This alternative considers the installation of a single-family septic system on each lot. The economic benefits of this alternative include the elimination of the sewage collection system and the central treatment system, and a decrease in the length of streets required. Each lot must have a minimum of 40,000 square feet of area when an individual septic system is used, according to Davidson County zoning and watershed regulations. The lots must be positioned at least partially in suitable soils to allow the construction of a septic system and a 100t repair area. A subdivision plan was developed using 40,000 square feet (minimum) lots with at least 10,000 square feet of usable soil within each lot. A total of 47 lots are possible under this alternative. The subdivision plan reflecting individual subsurface systems is presented in Figure 3. It should be noted that the basis for identifying the unsuitable and suitable soil areas is the Davidson County soils maps, as published by the Soil Conservation Service. The DWQ Guidance Document for preparation of E.A.A.-indicates this mapping is to be used for existing discharge facilities proposing an expansion. The long term acceptance rate (LTAR) for each soil classification found in the project area was determined by Mr. Kevin Martin, licensed soil scientist, of Soil and Environmental Consultants. The LTAR's for single family systems are presented in Table No. 1. The majority of the single family wastewater systems would consist of a 1,200 gallon septic tank followed by gravity distribution boxes and conventional nitrification trenches (3 feet wide by 2 feet deep) with a., a 4" corrugated pipe installed in a 12 inch deep layer of washed stone. For a three -bedroom home and an LTAR (Long Term Acceptance Rate) of .35 gpd/sf of trench bottom, approximately 343 LF of nitrification trench is required for each single-family home. Based on quotations from septic system installers in the Davidson and Forsyth County areas, the typical installed cost for a system this size is $2,400.00 to $3,000.00. Some of the lots would most likely require pump systems due to the topography of the lots, and some might require low-pressure pipe (LPP) systems due to topography, shallow soils, or other reasons. The pump -to -conventional systems and the LPP systems would have a 50o to 1500W higher installed cost than the gravity conventional system. However, since it cannot be definitely established at this time how many lots might require pump systems or LPP systems, it will be assumed that all lots can be served by the less expensive gravity conventional system. The estimated construction costs for the septic systems to serve the 47 lots would therefore be: AM 47 septic systems at $2,700 each = $ 126,900.00 go we A-2 R" PM, TABLE 1 Long Term Application Rates for Single Family Subsurface Wastewater Systems Mapping Unit Map Conventional Symbol Trench Chewacla loam,0%-2% slope Ch U Pacolet fine sandy loam,2%-6% slope PaB .30-.40 Pacolet fine sandy loam,10%-15% slope PaD .30-.40 Pacolet fine sandy loam,15%-45% slope PaF .30-.40 e.r Poindexter/Zion sandy loam,15%-25% sl.

The individual lots can be smaller than 40,000 square feet and contain no suitable soils because there will be no septic system on the lots under this alternative. All wastewater will be collected by a community sewerage system and piped to a main pump station. The wastewater will then be pumped to the central subsurface system septic tank. Following the septic tank, the effluent would flow to a pump tank and subsequently be pumped into the nitrification trenches. rM As previously noted, the Davidson County soils maps, as published by the Soil Conservation Service, are the basis for determining the suitability of the soils for community land -based disposal systems. The DWQ Guidance Document for preparation of E.A.A. indicates this "" mapping is to be used for existing discharge facilities proposing an expansion. The long term acceptance rates (LIAR) for community land - based systems are presented in Table No. 2. The subdivision plan for this alternative is illustrated by Figure 4.

Subsurface drip irrigation systems are normally used on sites that do not have the depth of suitable soils required for conventional �+ subsurface systems. On the subject property much of the unsuitable soil area was so identified because of reasons other than soil depth, such as landscape position or surface drainage features. Subsurface drip irrigation is still a viable system for this property due to its ability to compensate for irregular topography. The subsurface drip irrigation system utilizes pressurized emitters to release a relatively constant flow, regardless of minor elevation differences between the emitters. This allows a more efficient layout with less wasted land. Therefore, a 10% inefficiency factor is used to determine the land requirements rather than the 40t factor used for the conventional system. As illustrated in Figure 5, 72 single family lots may be developed. Due to the small orifice size in the emitters, the wastewater must be pretreated with a recirculating sand filter to prevent clogging. The sand filter requires a pump tank, duplex pumps, and a control panel to dose the filter on a timed basis. A portion of the filtered flow is directed to a second pump tank, which supplies the drip irrigation system. The estimated flow for this alternative is 25,920 gallons per day, using the same flow factors from the previous alternatives. The minimum area required for the system is: 25,920 gpd x SF = 312,289 SF subsurface drip irrigation area MM .083 GPD (areal basis) needed M" on G" 7.17 Ac 7.17 AC x 1.1(inefficiencies) x 2.0 (100% repair) = 15.75 Ac required due to layout inefficiencies and needing 100% repair area.

The disinfected wastewater is then surface applied through solid set sprinkler heads to be furthertreated by the soils. The wastewater i cannot be applied when there s a chance of runoff, such as when the ground is saturated by rainfall. To address this problem the lagoon is typically sized to provide the minimum volume required for treatment (30 days), plus the storage volume required to meet the demands of a wetter than average winter. The system operator will generally operate the irrigation system in accordance with the calculated water balance to insure the system's storage needs do not exceed the lagoon volume. Spray irrigation systems utilize pressurized spray nozzles to emit a relatively constant flow. The sprinkler layout is controlled by regulatory setbacks from property lines (150 feet), off -site houses (400 feet), streams, lakes, and similar considerations. The soil - scientist has recommended an annual average irrigation rate of .33 to .50 inches per week where the soils are suitable for spray. The lagoon storage volume is recommended to be 45 to 90 days, at the EM design wastewater flow. . For this study an average irrigation rate of .417 inches per week is used. The lagoon volume utilized is 30 days (treatment) plus 45 days M4 storage, or 75 days total. As indicated by Figure 6, 32 single-family lots can be developed. fm W IM OW The design flow for this alternative is 11,520 gpd.

The collected wastewater is stored in a lagoon and then disinfected prior to application on the land surface. Rather than utilizing sprinkler nozzles, a drip irrigation system is used to distribute the treated wastewater. This system allows a higher lot count than conventional spray due to the reduced regulatory set -backs; "1e however, the larger system capacity also requires a larger lagoon for wastewater storage. The wastewater must be filtered under this alternative as the drip irrigation orifices are much smaller than those found in conventional sprinkler nozzles. The estimated number of lots for this alternative is 57, with a flow of 20,520 gallons per day, using the same flow factors as previously used. The minimum area required for the application area is 12.70 acres, based on an average irrigation rate of .417 inches per week. (See Figure 7.) This minimum area does not include regulatory setbacks. The wastewater system components for this alternative include: One 15KW standby power generator with automatic transfer switch $ 18,000.00 One lined lagoon (75 days storage) with bottom dimensions of 101 Ft x 202 Ft, 2:1 side slopes, 8 foot maximum water level, and two feet of freeboard: 10,200 CY cut to fill at $3.50/CY $ 35,700.00 34,200 SF of 30 mil HDPE liner at $1.20/SF installed $ 41,040.00 Drip irrigation system including 276,600 LF dripper line, 16 zone valves, 3 return flush valves, supply & return piping, 10,200 SF 4W recirculating sand filter, irrigation pump system, pump house, computer controller, control wiring, electrical, etc. $ 597,000.00 One 21,000 gallon cast in place recirculation pump tank (251L x 121W x 101H inside dimension, 8" reinforced concrete walls) $ 25,400.00 One 2,000 gallon chlorine contact chamber with hypochlorite feed system $ 7,000.00 1,000 LF of six ft . chain link fence for lagoon and filter area at $9.00/LF $ 9,000.00 61300 LF of barbed wire fencing for application area at $2.50/LF $ 15,750.00 am MM A-18 �w no ■.

Reuse as the only managed option was previously examined in the land based treatment systems of Alternatives No. 3 through No. 7. Alternative No. 9 examines a combination of spray irrigation on the golf course as required by the turf, and a discharge to the Yadkin River during periods of wet weather, during the dormant season for the turf, or during periods �+ when the plant effluent does not meet the reuse standards but meets the discharge standards. The environmental benefits of a combination reuse system have been previously established by the Environmental p,. Management Commission's published intent to encourage the use of such systems. The infrastructure costs of this Alternative are identical to those presented for Alternative No. 8, with 167 lots being developed. The resulting 60,000 gpd of wastewater would be treated in a treatment plant similar to the one described in Alternative No. 8. The plant �•, would require several additional features to meet the reuse standards and requirements. These features include: 1. A continuous on-line turbidimeter and recorder. 2. An effluent pump station to pump the reuse water to an existing irrigation lake, where it would subsequently be 0" withdrawn by the existing golf course irrigation system. 3. Approximately 2,500 LF of 4 inch forcemain to convey the OW treated effluent to the irrigation lake. During periods when irrigation was desired, the plant effluent would flow from into the reuse effluent pump station and be pumped to the "" lake. If the turbidimeter measured an exceedance of the 10 NTU standard, the reuse pumps would be automatically disabled. The continued effluent flow from the plant would rise to an overflow level •W in the station, then flow to the existing discharge pump station and be pumped to the Yadkin River. m` The golf course will typically require 200,000 to 300,000 gpd on days that it is irrigated. The number of days with no irrigation will vary with the amount of rainfall. However, it is likely that at least 40% to 60t of the annual flow from the plant could go to irrigation. so M" A-26 am The estimated installed cost for the wastewater treatment and disposal °" system components for this alternative are as follows: Construction cost subtotal from Alternative No. �.

This is because the land based treatment systems use some of the developable land for the wastewater disposal systems, unlike the treatment plant alternatives. Consequently, the land -based alternatives must include the lost opportunity cost of the undeveloped lots. In this Appendix B Alternatives No. 3 through 7 are re-examined to determine the economic effects of additional land being available for the treatment systems. Additional land would allow development of 167 lots under each of these alternatives without the alternative having to bear the lost opportunity costs. Each re-examined alternative would have to include the increased infrastructure costs associated with the development of 167 lots, and the increased treatment system cost due to the treatment system being scaled -up to ~' serve 167 lots. The re-examination of alternatives will indicate if it is financially feasible to attempt to acquire adjacent properties, or if the revised present worth of the alternative is so great that the purchase of additional lands would render the alternative economically unreasonable. OW OW FM RM am FM N, B-1 OM M" ALTERNATIVE NO. 3 (Re-examined with additional land assumed available) INDIVIDUAL SUB -SURFACE SYSTEMS Under this re-examined alternative 167 lots will be developed with individual septic systems. The amount of infrastructure constructed in the original Alternative No. 3 served a total of 42 lots, each with a minimum size of 40,000 square feet. The infrastructure cost was $562,289.30 for the original Alternative, but this amount did not include the cost of the street, waterline, or storm drainage system for Ryder Cup Lane. These items were not included in the original economic evaluation because they were common to all alternatives, and therefore did not affect the ranking of the alternatives.

Present worth = $3,454,929 + 11.2578($29,681) = $3,789,072 This present worth exceeds the present worth of Alternative No. 81 without the cost of the required additional land being added to the re-examined alternative. A minimum of 37 acres, exclusive of land required to provide the regulatory setbacks, would have to be purchased to implement this alternative. This alternative cannot be economically feasible and therefore it would serve no purpose to contact the adjacent property owners about selling their land. W am MR am RM M 1A, B-17 RM APPENDIX C INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS Appendix C contains the infrastructure costs for each of the No evaluated alternatives. Infrastructure costs are defined in this E.A.A. as the construction cost of the streets, waterlines, storm drainage systems, and wastewater collection systems necessary to allow the development of the residential lots included in each am alternative. The street, waterline, and storm drainage construction costs associated with Ryder Cup Lane (refer to Figures No. 3 through 8) have not been included in the infrastructure costs for each alternative. This is because Ryder Cup Lane is a part of each of the alternatives, and its construction cost is a constant value that would not alter the present worth rankings of the alternatives. am me A.
