Authorization to Construct Return
Return #2081
Salem Galen WWTP
Davidson County
The Division received a letter of request for Authorization to Construct on June 15, 2000 for
the above referenced facility. Because this facility is not currently permitted for a .20 MGrD discharge,
these plans and specifications are not valid. As such, they are being returned to you. A permit
modification must be completed by the Division prior to obtaining an Authorization to Construct for any
discharge greater than .14 MGD which is specified in the permit. You are free to submit a permit
modification request with an Engineering Alternatives Analysis at any time.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Christie Jackson at
telephone number [phone], extension 538.
Sincerely,
r T. Stevens

Enclosed are five sets of plans and specifications for the construction of the
expansion of the Salem Glen WWTP, and a design summary that provides information to
assist the review engineer. We request that you review the enclosed documents and issue
an Authorization to Construct for the proposed improvements.
The project is an expansion of the existing .10 mgd treatment plant to an effective
treatment capacity of .20 mgd. The NPDES permit currently limits the average daily
discharge to .14 mgd. Our consulting engineer is preparing an Engineering Alternatives
Analysis to request the permit be modified to allow a .20 mgd discharge.
Due to the time required to process an NPDES permit modification, we request
the Authorization to Construct be issued for the submitted plans and specifications. The
constructed plant would be rated for a capacity of. 14 mgd to match the current NPDES
permit, and then be re -rated for .20 mgd when and if the NPDES permit is modified.
The information required by 15 NCAC 2H.0138(b) (1) through (9), is included on
the attached pages. As the review progresses, please call if you would like for us to come
to your offices for a meeting. I can be reached at 467-8712 Ext. 37.
Sincerely,
