There are several businesses along Mebane Oaks Road that need to be connected to the City of Mebane sanitary sewer system that adjoin the Lodge. The owners claim that they cannot afford the sewer installation cost. Mebane refuses to sewer the area.The available sewer is approximely 1000 feet from the site. It is possible that a major industry is moving into an adjacent site, but the City claims they will not sewer the business cluster when and if they sewer the industry. The industry's sewer line will be farther from the Lodge than the current MacDonald's line. PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The WSRO recommends that the NPDES Permit be re -issued with incorporation of current DEM Policies until the "Basin Plan" for this area is scheduled to be in place. The Permit shall require connection to the available City sewer within the Permit life.

Wilso s Through: Ruth C. Swanek Carla Sanderson Subject: Speculative Limits Arrowhead Motor Lodge, NC0029351 Alamance County Currently, Arrowhead Motor Lodge has the following limits: BODS (mg/1): 13 NH3-N (mg/1): 4 DO (mg/1): 5 TSS (mg/1): 30 Fecal coliform: 1000 pH (SU): 6-9 These limits were required for discharge directly to the UT Haw Creek below I-85. The wasteload allocation developed in 1989 specified that the permit should require the facility to connect to the nearest sewer system within 90 days of its availability. Unfortunately, connection to the sewer system is not economically feasible. Based on new information that the discharge is actually going to a storm drainage ditch at I-85, the flow at this discharge point would be regarded as 7Q10 = 0.0 cfs and 30Q2 = 0.0 cfs. Therefore, upon renewal of this permit the zero flow policy would be initiated. Per current operating procedures, the following limits would apply upon renewal: First three vears After three years BODS (mg/1): 13 BODS (mg/1): 5/10 NH3-N (mg/1): 4 NH3-N (mg/1): 1/1.8 DO (mg/1): 5 DO (mg/1): 6/6 TSS (mg/1): 30 TSS (mg/1): 30/30 Fecal coliform 200 Fecal coliform: 200 pH (SU): 6-9 pH (SU): 6-9 Chlorine (µg/1): 17 Removal of discharge is recommended. An engineering report must be sent within 12 months after the permit is issued showing no alternative to discharge. The facility would receive their existing limits for the first three years, and more stringent limits after three years. Because the final destination of the storm drain is UT Haw Creek, which is classified as WS-III, NSW, the facility may receive more stringent requirements on nutrient inputs. Arrowhead Motor Lodge should also be warned that if an effluent pipe is relocated directly to the UT Haw Creek, the facility would receive limits of 5/1 on any portion of the Creek that has 7Q10 = 0.0 cfs. cc: Central Files ATTACHMENT B Part I Page I of 1 Permit No. NCO029351 A (1).

The effluent data show frequent violations of the facility's BOD5 limit; sixteen of the last seventeen BOD5 monthly averages have been non -compliant. The facility's NH3-N limit is also frequently violated. In fact, NPDES permit No. NCO029351 expired November 30, 1988. Compliance with NPDES limitations is especially important since the receiving stream, a UT to Haw Creek, has been reported as being a dry ditch for the past 34 months. Even if the creek is dry upstream of the discharge the facility should monitor the downstream site, and failure to do so is in violation of their NPDES permit requirements. I understand that you are currently in the process of drafting an SOC for this facility. Given the poor performance record of this facility, per- haps a JOC would be more appropriate.

Washington Street Mebane, NC 27302 Subject: Response to Compliance Evaluation Inspection, Arrowhead Motor Lodge NPDES Permit No. NCO029351 Alamance County Dear Mr. Hodge: This letter is to acknowledge your subject correspondence dated June 29, 1988. It is rare for a sand filter system to take 9 months to recover from a septic tank upset or a shock load, however. Data from April, 1987, indicates that this.system cannot consistently meet a biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) limit of 13 mg/l without some modifications. It is possible that a complete replacement of sand and gravel in the sand filter would improve treatment so that permit limits could be achieved. If septic tank malfunctions have been ruled out, the only other alternatives would be to install a different treatment system or eliminate the discharge. , If you have any questions please call Jessica or me at (919)761-2351.

NC0029351, ALAMANCE COUNTY Enclosed is the subject inspection report completed by Jessica Howells, an Environmental Technician with our office. Some problems were noted during the on -site inspection and the subsequent file review. These problems were as follows: 1) there were a number of weeds in the sand bed. This would contribute to short-circuiting and would decrease the effectiveness of treatment if not corrected; 2) there was no chlorine contact chamber after your chlorinator and prior to the discharge point. A contact chamber is necessary so there is enough time for the chlorine to adequately kill bacteria and other pathogens prior to discharge; 3) there were violations of the monthly avrLrge effluent biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) permit limit in April, 1987 and May, 1987. It was noted that the pH was lower these 2 months than had been previously reported. Some process control testing should be performed so that the source of the problem can be determined. If the pH of the septic tank is too low, treatment may be improved by adding lime. However, the problem may be with your sand filter, which would be more costly to correct. 8025 North Point Boulevard, Suite 100, Winston-Salem, N.C. 27106-3295 • Telephone 919-761-2351 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Emplover Mr. G.B. Patel Page 2 August 3, 1987 After reviewing your monitoring data, I would also suggest that you have samples taken and analyzed early in the month so that, if an analysis goes wrong or is high, you can resample later in the month. In January, 1987 too much sample was used in the BOD analysis, depleting all the dissolved oxygen and using up the sample. However, it was too late in the month to resample. This situation would be avoided by sampling earlier. You must submit a written response to the Winston-Salem Regional Office by August 31, 1987, detailing the steps you are taking to comply with your NPDES permit. You are reminded that, until compliance is achieved and maintained, you are subject to enforcement action pursuant to North Carolina General Statute 143.215, et al.

This inspection consists of a site evaluation and a file review. Problems noted were as follows: 1. The distribution box at the sand filter was leaking. This should be repaired to eliminate excessive wastewater loading in the area -next to the box. 2. Some joints of the distribution line were cracked and should be replaced. Distribution lines should be straightened to improve wastewater distribution over the sand bed. Adding concrete to some of the junctions of clay joints might improve distribution. 3. Flow and fecal coliform are not being monitored and reported as specified in your NPDES Permit.

This inspection consists of an on -site evaluation and a file review. Please.note the comments on the report form for recommendations concerning your treatment system. When reviewing the file for your facility, violations of your NPDES permit requirements were noted. Monitoring reports were reviewed for the period of August, 1984 through April, 1985. Flow and fecal coliform data were not reported in monitoring reports reviewed. According to your NPDES permit, flow must be monitored dialy and fecal coliform must be monitored monthly. In addition, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) data was not reported in the August, 1984; September, 1984; nor March, 1985 reports. This para- meter must be monitored monthly. Dissolved Oxygen (D.O.) and temperature were monitored only weekly or monthly during the period reviewed. These parameters must be monitored daily as specified in your NPDES permit. While it is understood that this system does not disobivxge d_aiLy�nd that it primarily only discharges on weekends, efforts should be made to comply with the monitoring requirements specified in your permit. If the days on which there is no discharge are indicated on your monitoring reports, Division of EVvironmental Management Staff would be able to determine your compliance status more accurately. 8003 North Point Boulevard, Winston-Salem, N.C. 27106-3295 • Telephone 919-761-2351 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer r Mr. Gamen B.
