NC0027286_Renewal (Application)_20160317
Town of Blowing Rock is requesting a renewal of our Waste Water Treatment Plant permit. We have changed the PH sample from composite to grab, request was granted by the state in November 2015. We have had changes in personal; Scott Fogleman is now the Town Manger, Mark Griffin (ww3 986249) is now the ORC, Marshall James Townsend (ww 2 1002559) is full time operator, Trathen Greene operator in training. No longer with us is Scott Hildabran Town Manger, Tom McRary ORC and Brian Banner. RECEIVED/NCDEQ/DWR MAR 172016 Water Quality Permitting Section Sludge treatment and removal 2015 Sludge is wasted from the clarifiers to the digester where it is stored and thickened by removing water after it settles. Then the thick sludge is pumped from the bottom of the digester to Honey-Well septic truck which then hauls the product to Lenoir Waste Water treatment Plant (Lower Creek). Honey- Well hauls four loads a week during the year, each load is 2250 gallons.
