City of Havelock Water Treatment Plant Backwash Systems (Short Form C)
Craven County
Dear Ms. Phillips;
The City of Havelock herein submits a permit application for the City's Water
Treatment Plant Backwash System. The waste facility is undergoing a complete redesign
since last permit renewal. The facility has added a 417,000 gallon clarifier, polishing
basin, new effluent meter vault and dechlorinating station. A new 12" discharge line will
empty into existing discharge point. The sludge at the bottom of clarifier will be wasted
to new sand drying beds and hauled to the landfill.
Enclosed is the design layout for this new plant.
The backwash flow averages 100,000 gallons per day. A copy of our sludge management
plan is enclosed. This new plant is at 75% completion with a finish date for February
2018. If you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (252)-
444-6420.

5. Type of treatment plant:
❑ Conventional (Includes coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation, usually followed by
filtration and disinfection)
® Ion Exchange (Sodium Cycle Cationic ion exchange)
® Green Sand Filter (No sodium recharge)
❑ Membrane Technology (RO, nanofiltration)
Check here if the treatment process also uses a water softener
6. Description of source water(s) (i.e. groundwater, surface water)
Castle Hayne Aquifer (Groundwater) - High in iron, manganese, and hardness
7. Describe the treatment process(es) for the raw water:
Water from the aquifer is pumped from the well into two aeration basms. As the water cascades
down through the aerator, it removes hydrogen sulfide and starts oxidation process. Next the
water is injected with sodium permanganate to further oxidize the iron so greensand filters in
the plant can remove it. Water leaves the filters to enter the ion exchange softeners to remove
calcium & magnesium hardness. After leaving the softeners, it is blended with filter water to
give desired hardness. Next it is injected with zinc orthophosphate for corrosion control, then
sodium hypochlorite and ammonia to form chloramines. After processing it is then stored in a
1.0 MG ground storage tank before being sent to the system.
S. Describe the wastewater and the treatment process(es) for wastewater generated by the
facility:
Our wastewater consists of iron, manganese, chlorides, magnesium, and calcium that both the
greensand filters and ion exchanged softeners have removed The water leaves the water
treatment plant, going through an influent meter to the 417,000 gallon clarifier. The sludge
settles, leaving clean water on top that is decanted back to a 60,000 gallon (original) basin to
settle more, leaves there, metered and then injected with calcium thiosulfate for chlorine
removal, Out through a 12" line to a discharge point located on map. The sludge produced is
gathered in the bottom of the clarifier with sludge arm, where we waste out the material with
solids handling pumps to be applied to 6 drying beds. The water filters out, and then is pumped
back up to the clarifier. Remaining sludge is dried, then removed by equipment and hauled to
the landfill.
9. Number of separate discharge points: 1 Outfall Identification number(s) 001
10. Frequency of discharge: Continuous ® Intermittent ❑

11. Plant design potable flowrate 2.8 MGD

City of Havelock's Water Treatment
Plant Waste Management Plan
The City of Havelock Water Treatment Plant manages
the sludge produced from backwash waste from the
greensand filters and ion exchange softeners in the
following manner:
The waste produced from the treatment processes is
gathered at the bottom of the clarifier, then pumped
through the solids handling pump station and moves to
our six drying beds to be dried out. When the sludge is dry
enough to pass a paint filter test, it is cleaned out by a
loader and hand method and transported to the
Tuscarora Land Fill in Craven County.
Signed,
David Hemenway
WTP Supervisor/ORC
