This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until February 28, 2004, shall void Permit No.
WQ0002571 issued April 3, 1997, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations:
1. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The spray irrigation facilities shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times so that there
is no discharge to the surface waters, nor any contamination of ground waters which will render
them unsatisfactory for normal use_ In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily,
including the creation of nuisance conditions or failure of the irrigation area to adequately
assimilate the wastewater, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective actions including those
actions that may be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division), such as the construction
of additional or replacement wastewater treatment and disposal facilities.
4. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to

treatment facility. These buffers do. ho\\e\ er. apple to modifications of the treatment and disposal
facilities which are for the pu€-post (11' incrcasin4gy the flow that is tributary to the fwilit\. These
buffers do apple to any expan:ion or modification of the spray irrigation areas and apply in
instances in which the sale of propert\ \+ould cause any of the buffers no\\ complied with. for the
treatment and disposal facilities, to be violated. The applicant is advised that any modifications to
the existing facilities wi11 require a permit modification.

relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
6. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/1 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 mg/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.

waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the waste
disposal area. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance
Boundary is subject to immediate remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions
applicable under General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2l_. a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around tile disposal
systems midNvay between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter Of the waste disposal area.
