Permitting Section
Please find enclosed the Town of Norwood's NPDES Renewal Application for NPDES Permit # NC0088676.
On June 14, 2012, the Division of Water Quality issued a letter to the Town approving their request to suspend
submission of monthly DMRs since the Town is currently discharging their alum sludge supernatant to the Town
of Norwood WWTP.
It is the Town of Norwood's intention to continue sending the supernatant to the WWTP. However, we request
that NPDES Permit NCO088676 be renewed in case there was a need to discharge in the future.
Sincerely,
A

Town of Norwood
Sludge Management Plan
The Town of Norwood operates a Water Treatment Plant and the filter backwash water and
sedimentation basin residuals are sent to a concrete holding tank on-site. The water is decanted
and transferred to the WWTP via a lift station on-site. The slurry is pumped to drying beds that
are on-site. Once the residuals are dried adequately, they are hauled to the Montgomery County
Landfill for disposal.
