or failure to act in accordance with the terms and conditions of this permit.
13. A usable green area shall be maintained for wastewater disposal. The green area shall have the
capability of accommodating the average daily flow of the facility being served without exceeding the
loading rates of the green area. A "green area", as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0404 (g)(7), is an area
suitable for waste disposal, either in its natural state or which has been modified by planting a
vegetative cover of grasses or low growing shrubbery.
M. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

removed manually so that minimal disturbance will occur to the disposal area.
4. This permit shall become voidable if the soils fail to adequately assimilate the wastes and may be
rescinded unless the facilities are installed, maintained, and operated in a manner which will protect
the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and ground waters. The ponding of
wastewater on the surface of the distribution field when the dosing cycle commences shall be
considered as evidence of failure of the soils to adequately assimilate the wastewater. Additionally,
such failure shall be interpreted as a violation of this permit condition.
5. The application of chemicals to the distribution fields is expressly prohibited.
6. The chlorine tablets used in the distribution facility shall be of the kind and type specified in the plans
and specifications approved by the Division.
7. High -rate infiltration shall not be performed during inclement weather or when the ground is in a
condition that will cause ponding or runoff.

The ASSOCIATION shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System
will be maintained out of the common expenses. In order to assure that there shall be funds readily
available to repair, maintain, or construct the Disposal System beyond the routine operation and
maintenance expenses, the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide that a fund be created out of
the common expenses. Such fund shall be separate from the routine maintenance fund allocated for the
facility and shall be part of the yearly budget.
4. In the event the common expense allocation and separate fund(s) are not adequate for the construction,
repair, and maintenance of the Disposal System, the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide for
special assessments to cover such necessary costs. There shall be no limit on the amount of such
assessments, and the Declaration and Bylaws shall be provided such that special assessments can be made
as necessary at any time.
5. If a wastewater collection system and wastewater treatment and/or disposal facility provided by any city,
town, village, county, water and sewer authorities, or other unit of government shall hereinafter become
available to serve the Development, the ASSOCIATION shall take such action as is necessary to cause the
existing and future wastewater of the Development to be accepted and discharged into said governmental
system, and shall convey or transfer as much of the Disposal System and such necessary easements as the
governmental unit may require as condition of accepting the Development's wastewater.
Recognizing that it would be contrary to the public interest and to the public health, safety and welfare for
the ASSOCIATION to enter into voluntary dissolution without having made adequate provision for the
continued proper maintenance, repair and operation of its Disposal System, the ASSOCIATION shall
provide in the ASSOCIATION Bylaws that the ASSOCIATION shall not enter into voluntary dissolution
without first having transferred its said system and facilities to some person, corporation or other entity
acceptable to and approved by the COMMISSION by the issuance of a permit.
7. The ASSOCIATION shall not transfer, convey, assign or otherwise relinquish or release its responsibility
for the operation and maintenance of its Disposal System until a permit has been reissued to the
ASSOCIATION's successor.
8. The agreements set forth in numbered paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 above shall be conditions of any
permit issued by the COMMISSION to the ASSOCIATION for the construction, maintenance, repair and
operation of the Disposal System.
9. A copy of this agreement shall be filed at the Register of Deeds in the County(ies) where the Declaration is
filed and in the offices of the Secretary of State of North Carolina with the Articles of Incorporation of the
Association.

1. 3 X year monitor* shall be conducted in March, July & November, Anntial monitoring shall be coi conducted every November-
2. The measurement of water levels shall be made prior to purging the wells. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the
top of the casing. The measurement of pH shall be made after purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
3. The meastiriug points (lop of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring
well. The measuring points (top of casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed relative to a common datum
4. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/i are detected in any downgradient monitoring well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual
constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 nrg/l, this concentration will be taken) to
represent the naturally occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the
additional sampling and analysis as described above.
5. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) -In November only, analyze by one of the following methods:
a. Standard Method 62301), PQL at 0.5 Ilg/L or less
b. Standard Method 6210D, PQL at 0.5 ltg/L or less
C. EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
d. EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
C. Another method with prior approval by the Aquifer Protection Section Chief.
Any method used must meet the following qualifications:
a. A laboratory must be DWQ certified to run any method used.
b. The method used must, at a mioimurri, include all the constituents listed in Table V1II. of Standard Method 6230D.
c. The method used must provide a PQL of 0.5 ug/L or less that must be supported by laboratory proficiency studies as required by the DWQ Laboratory
Certification Unit. Any constituents detected above the MDL but below the PQL of 0.5 ug/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported-
6. Monitoring wells shall be reported consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in Figure 2 and this attachment
