C I T Y O
high
point,
On July 21, 1999, North Carolina Governor James Hunt signed a law, House Bill 1160, that placed reporting
requirements on the owners or operators of wastewater treatment and wastewater collection facilities in North
Carolina. Part of the legislation was a requirement to provide the user or customers of the system with an
annual report of the past year's performance including a summary of violations.
The purpose of these reports is to provide an understandable and informative description of the wastewater
treatment facilities and sewage collection system, describe the regulations with which these facilities must
comply, and promote a general awareness of these facilities and their role in protecting the environment.
The City of High Point operates two wastewater treatment facilities and a wastewater collection system that
collects and transports the wastewater to each of the two facilities. The Frank L. Ward Water Treatment Plant
has a wastewater permit for the alum sludge lagoons. The names and permit information for these facilities are
listed below as well as those professionals designated by the State of North Carolina as Operators in Responsible

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
C I T Y O F
high
point,
The Public Services Department bears the responsibility for wastewater collection and treatment. The Divisions
in the Department that are involved in wastewater collection and treatment are: Water & Sewer Mains,
Laboratory Services, Maintenance Services, Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eastside Wastewater
Treatment Plant and Residuals Management.
The City's wastewater collection and wastewater treatment facilities provide service to homes, commercial
establishments, and industries. During this reporting period, there were approximately 45,627 connections
through which an average of 16.84 million gallons of wastewater was collected each day. This wastewater was
collected, treated, and then discharged back into the receiving stream or water body. The city also treats
wastewater from the Archdale, Jamestown, Sedgefield, and Trinity communities.
Multiple state agencies assure that stringent standards are met before the treated wastewater can be released
into a receiving stream or water body. These standards are listed in a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) permit. Each facility that releases treated wastewater into surface waters, a stream for
example, must possess one of these permits. These permits regulate the type and amounts of pollutants that a
facility can discharge. The discharge limits specified in these permits are based on the ability of the stream to
withstand the addition of pollutants without having any noticeable impact on the water quality of the stream.
These NPDES permits include monitoring requirements and discharge limits. Some vary with seasons and have
different maximums for daily values, weekly averages, monthly averages, and quarterly averages.
Wastewater treatment is a complex process that is often taken for granted. However, it requires expensive
equipment and skilled operations, maintenance, laboratory, solids handling and engineering personnel working
constantly to assure adequate treatment twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week, and 365 days
throughout the year.
COLLECTION SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The City of High Point wastewater collection system
consists of approximately 677 miles of gravity
wastewater lines. There are 20.28 miles of pressurized
force mains; 23 lift stations; and 17,458 manholes. On
average, 16.84 million gallons per day (MGD) of
wastewater flowed through this system from homes and
businesses, to either the Eastside or Westside
Wastewater Treatment Plant during the 2023-2024
reporting period.
(Left) — GIS map of the sewer collection system
1 he collection system consists of both gravity lines and
(pressurized) force mains. Wastewater discharged in neighborhoods flows by gravity into the collection system.
The size of the collection system lines increases to handle the higher flow as more and more wastewater is
collected from outlying areas. Once the gravity lines get too deep, the flow must be pumped or pushed up, by
the City's lift stations, to a higher elevation where use of the gravity lines will be resumed. The largest of these
collection lines route the wastewater to one of the two wastewater treatment plants.

The lift stations are monitored 24 hours per day for proper operation. The Water/Sewer Mains Division is
responsible for line cleaning and emergency response to calls from the public dealing with collection system
problems.
A State mandated fats, oils, and grease (FOG) program is also in effect
crews work diligently to keep the lines clean and well -
maintained. A concerted effort is necessary between the
city and its citizens to reduce the grease related
problems in the collection system. Despite the City's
best efforts, sanitary sewer overflows (SSO's) happen in
High Point, just as they do in every municipality in North
Carolina. An SSO is when wastewater escapes from the
wastewater collection system to the surrounding ground
or nearby surface waters. The North Carolina Division of
Water Resources defines a reportable SSO as any spill to
the ground more than 1,000 gallons or any spill,
regardless of the amount, which reaches any surface
waters. During this reporting period, the City of High
Point had 20 reportable SSO's. The SSO's are
summarized in the Appendix.
What the Mains Division is doing to Prevent/Reduce Spills
. The Collection System maintenance
(Above) — Construction of the Richland Creek Sewer Aerials
■ Inspect, repair, rehabilitate or replace sewer lines and pump stations as needed to eliminate
leaks or to increase system capacity.
■ Inspect and clear collection system lines with cutting and flushing equipment.
■ Educate customers about proper disposal of fats, Oils, and Grease.
■ Educate customers about proper disposal of wipes and other non-flushable items.
■ Ongoing inspection of commercial grease traps in problem areas.
■ Utilization of computer software to better track/monitor compliance with containing grease,
fats, and oils.
■ Maintain collection system easements to keep roots from growing into collection lines and
limit plantings allowed along easements.
■ Operate and continuous monitoring alarm system at pump stations; maintain and repair
pumps; use generators for backup power; replace pump stations with gravity sewers when
practical; monitor and inspect pump stations to identify repairs needed.
Corrective Actions
Follow-up actions depend on the cause and severity of the spill and may include:
■ Clearing of mains.
■ Site cleanup
■ Disinfection
■ Inspection
■ Repair, rehabilitate or replace pipes.
■ Increased inspections or other maintenance as needed.

EASTSIDE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
The Eastside Wastewater Treatment Plant
(WWTP) is a 5-stage biological nutrient
removal (BNR) facility and is permitted to
treat 26 million gallons per day (MGD). The
BNR process is for phosphorus and nitrogen
removal from wastewater.
(Right) —Aerial view of the Eastside WWTP
An environment is created using influent
waste and return sludge from the secondary
clarifiers that encourages the growth of
phosphorus removing bacteria. The
phosphorus removing bacteria consumes phosphorous at higher -than -normal levels thus removing it before the
water is discharged. In the BNR process, nitrogen is removed in two ways: Ammonia is converted to nitrate
nitrogen by an anaerobic biological process known as nitrification; Nitrate is converted to nitrogen gas in a
process called denitrification. These processes reduce the amount of total nitrogen in the effluent. The
reduction of phosphorous and nitrogen in the plant's effluent helps reduce the potential for algae growth in
Randleman Lake, to which the treated effluent is discharged.
Other treatment processes include screening, grit removal, primary clarification, 5-stage activated sludge,
secondary clarification, alum for additional phosphorus precipitation, effluent filtration, ultraviolet (UV)
disinfection, Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF) thickeners — to thicken sludge prior to dewatering, post aeration,
solids handling (dewatering and incineration), and odor control. All these processes support the biological
treatment necessary to remove pollutants from the wastewater.
The Eastside WWTP treated and discharged an average of 13.94 million gallons per day (MGD) or a total of 5,087
million gallons (MG) during the reporting year 2023-2024. During this report period, the Eastside WWTP
received four Notice of Violations (NOVs) for the exceedance of total phosphorus in August 2023 , December
2023, May 2024 and June 2024. The staff at the Eastside WWTP are committed to effectively and efficiently
treating the incoming waste to produce an effluent that meets or exceeds the standards outlined in the NPDES
permit.

WESTSIDE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is
also a 5-Stage Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR)
Facility and is currently permitted to treat 10
million gallons per day (MGD).
The treatment processes include a coarse bar
screen, influent lift pumps, fine screening, and grit
removal for preliminary treatment; primary
clarification; 5-stage activated sludge basins, for
BNR; final clarification; alum addition, for further
phosphorus precipitation; tertiary filtration;
Rotary Drum Thickening (RDT), to thicken sludge
prior to dewatering; ultraviolet light (UV), for
disinfection; post -aeration; solids handling, via
centrifuge; and odor control.

high
point,
An average of 2.90 million gallons per day (MGD) or a total of 1058.93 million gallons (MG) were treated and
discharged during the reporting year 2023-2024. The Westside WWTP was compliant with the NPDES permit
for 2023-2024 reporting period. The staff at the Westside WWTP are committed to effectively and efficiently
treating the incoming waste to produce an effluent that meets or exceeds the standards outlined in the NPDES
permit.
RESIDUALS MANAGEMENT
The City's Residuals Management Division has the task of disposing of the wastewater biosolids from the
Eastside Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant, and the disposal of alum
sludge solids generated by the Ward Water Plant. In 2023-2024, Residuals Management processed 62.6
million gallons (MG) of sludge from the two wastewater plants. The Residual's operators use three (3) high-
speed centrifuges to dewater the biosolids, producing a material referred to as "cake". The "cake" is about
25% dry solids by weight and becomes the feedstock for the incinerator.
The Incineration system at Eastside WWTP is permitted to burn 2,049 dry pounds of biosolids per hour or 24.5
dry tons of biosolids per day. This is the equivalent of six tractor trailer loads of biosolids per day. This
incineration system allows the city to manage its biosolids disposal in house. The only material left over after
the incineration process is an inert ash which is then able to be landfilled. The volume reduction from
dewatered biosolids to ash is approximately 95%.

ALUM SLUDGE LAGOONS- FRANK L. WARD WATER TREATMENT PLANT
The Frank L. Ward Water Treatment Plant
(WTP) provides drinking water for the City of
High Point. There are two lagoons located at
the Frank L. Ward WTP that are utilized as
part of the water treatment process. Filter
backwash water and alum sludge are sent to
the lagoons. The solids settle out in the
lagoons and the water is discharged into the
Richland Creek after de -chlorination.
(Above)- Aerial View of the Frank L. Ward WTP
The lagoons at the Frank L. Ward WTP discharged an average of 840,823 gallons per day or a total of 307.74
million gallons (MG) during the reporting year of 2023-2024. During this reporting period, the Frank L. Ward
WTP received one Notice of Deficiency (dated September 25, 2023) for a daily maximum exceedance of the total
concentration limit on June 21, 2023. The staff at the Frank L. Ward WTP are committed to effectively and
efficiently treating the filter backwash water and alum sludge to produce an effluent that meets or exceeds the
standards outlined in the NPDES permit.

The mission of the Water and Sewer Maintenance Division is to maintain the equipment at the Eastside
Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Frank L. Ward Water Filtration
Plant, the Residuals Management Division, and all Lift Stations in order that they remain in compliance with all
federal, state, and local regulations. An on -call maintenance team is available after hours, weekends and
holidays to respond to emergency equipment breakdowns at the water / wastewater treatment plants, lift
stations and residuals management. Maintenance staff accomplished these goals through their timely
response to corrective maintenance work orders and by performing preventative maintenance as scheduled.
LABORATORY SERVICES
The City's state certified laboratory is centrally located at the Frank L.
Ward Water Treatment Plant. The lab provides comprehensive analytical
monitoring and compliance support for the Public Services
Department/Plants Divisions. They ensure monitoring and reporting
compliance with all permitted State, Federal and local laws, and
ordinances. The laboratory provides necessary and required testing to
ensure safe, clean drinking water, as well as compliance testing for both
wastewater treatment facilities, as stipulated by their NPDES permits. On
average, the lab reports over 13,000 permit required tests to the state
that aid in the safe and efficient operation of the plants.
The Industrial Pretreatment Program (IPP) manages industrial,
commercial, and other types of non-residential wastewater discharges
into the City's sanitary sewer system with the intention of protecting the
system from pollutants that interfere with the treatment process, are
impervious to the treatment process or are harmful to the plant, sewer
lines or personnel. Industrial Pretreatment Program staff survey non-
residential facilities discharging into the sewer system and issue permits to those meeting certain criteria such
as the type(s) of waste(s) discharged from their facility or discharge volume. The issuance of discharge permit
limits is based on Federal categorical pretreatment regulations, local pollutant limits and the ability of the
treatment plant, either the Eastside WWTP or the Westside WWTP, to assimilate, treat and remove substances
from the incoming waste stream.
What is the City Response?
The City of High Point is committed to improving and maintaining compliance with all regulations regarding the
wastewater system. Below is a list of some of the major ongoing capital improvement projects:
• Estimated $5.5M for Whites Mill Lift Station and Force Main Project
• Estimated $15.9M for the Eastside WWTP UV Disinfection Upgrade Project
• Estimated $8.1M for the Westside WWTP Sludge Dewatering System Improvements
• Estimated $18.2M for Richland Creek Outfall- Aerial Replacement Project

high
point,
The leading cause of overflows is debris and grease blockages in the lines. While the collection system is
designed to handle and safely transport sanitary waste to our treatment plants, too much grease or non -
biodegradable material placed into the system can cause clogs and result in sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs).
Dumping any fats, oils or grease derived from animal and vegetable sources, including meats, nuts, cereals and
beans, down any drain — home or business — can cause a stoppage that forces raw, untreated waste to spill into
our yards, streets, and streams. It is very important to help prevent all foreign materials, such as grease and
other household debris from entering the collection system, as these can cause blockages.
You can help the City of High Point reduce the number of overflows by following these simple steps:
■ Collect grease, fats, and oils from cooking in a container and dispose of it in the garbage instead of
pouring it down the drain.
■ Always scrape silverware, cookware, and dishes prior to washing.
■ Place food scraps in the garbage for disposal with your household solid waste.
■ Remember "Wipes Clog Pipes" —so-called "Flushable Wipes" are NOT FLUSHABLE. Sanitizing wipes
should be disposed of in the garbage for disposal with your household solid waste.
Please call the City of High Point to report a water main break or sanitary sewer overflow.
To report a problem, please call 883-3111.
