NPDES PERMIT NUMBER:NC0036641j 1 . Dear Client, ' ' 3 We are pleased to notify you that your facility operated most of the month within your National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES)permit.We did experience a result that was greater than .. ? the permit discharge limits. Your permit has both a monthly maximum and a daily maximum. Your facility exceeded the permit discharge limits on the items listed below: :. a i Ammonia Nitrogen 15.0 mg/1 monthly average . i 1 - 34 This gave a daily maximum violation on no days and did give one monthly violation. We . i determined that the cause of the violation was due to the sudden temperature changes that occurred during a this month. We began adding Soda Ash to increase the pH and Alkalinity at the time the increase in 1 Ammonia Nitrogen was observed. The Soda Ash is being added at the Influent weir and in the final a Effluent. The system is meeting with the Cane Creek Sewer District as well as evaluating installing aerated tankage to assist with the treatment. We are working with the Asheville Regional Office on available options regarding this system. 1 ' 9 You may receive a monetary fine for this month. Thank you for your understanding in this I i matter. - I Thank you for choosing James&James as your service company. • I 3 `.
