SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection
J.W. Smith/Camp Spring 76 — Groundwater Remediation Site
NPDES Permit No. NCO088692
Caswell County
Dear Mr. Sparks:
On June 05, 2017, Min Xiao and Paul DiMatteo of this office met with Danny Oldham, to perform
a Compliance Evaluation Inspection on the petroleum contaminated groundwater remediation site.
The inspection found the treatment system to be compliant with the NPDES permit. The inspection
findings are detailed below and an inspection checklist is attached.
I. Permit
The permit has been expired on May 31, 2017. A renewal application and supporting
documentation were prepared by Pyramid Environmental & Engineering, PC and received by the
Water Quality Permitting Section on November 22, 2016.
H. Records/Reports
For this facility, the DMRs were reviewed for the period January 2016 through December 2016.
The facility was found to be compliant with the effluent permit limits for the above period. Flow
is measured onsite, other parameters are measured by Pace Analytical Labs. A comparison of
February 2017 DMR with the field records and laboratory results revealed that the data had been
correctly transcribed.
An ORC visitation log and a copy of the permit were kept onsite, the DMRs and lab results are
kept in the office of Pyramid in Greensboro.
III. Facility Site Review
The contaminated groundwater is treated with the following equipment: three recovery wells (each
with an in-line totalizer), air compressor, particle filter, 150 -gallon EQ tank, oil -water separator
(OWS), 150 -gallon OWS sump tank, air stripper exhaust, 150 -gallon sump tank, 4 activated carbon
filters and 1 aggregate filter, an effluent totalizer. The facility appeared to be competently operated
and maintained.

IV. Flow Measurement
The permit requires continuous flow recording. Flow data reported on the DMR are obtained from
mechanical totalizers.
VI. Effluent/Receiving Waters
The effluent flows through a PVC pipe with gravity and discharges into an unnamed tributary of
Country Line Creek, class "WS -II; HQW" waters of the Roanoke River Basin. No discharge was
observed at the time of the inspection.
