RALEIGH
WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND SURFACE iRWGAT10N SYSTIEM PERMIT
in accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes o fNorth Carolina as
amended, and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
City of Raleigh
Wake County
continued operation of a 1.54 million gallon per day (G?D) (i.e., only up to 1.2.9 million gallons per day
may be irrigated onto the wetted area of the spray irrigation facilities, while at least 250,000 gallons per
-day may be diverted to the Permittee's Neuse River Wastewater Treatment Plant) wastewater treatment
and spray irrigation facilities, consisting of the following minimum components: dual 25-acre
stabilization/storage lagoons with a minimum of 30 days detention, an additional storage capacity of 46
days, and a liner of natural clay material with a minimum compacted thickness of one foot and a
maximum hydraulic conductivity of I0-6 centimeters per second; a system using calcium hypochlorite for
wastewater effluent disinfection; an irrigation pump station with four 2,750-gallon per minute pumps; a
solid set irrigation system covering approximately 269.72 acres of wetted -area; and all associated piping,
valves, instrumentation, controls, and other appurtenances necessary to make complete and operational
wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities. The above -described facilities are intended to serve
the City of Raleigh and its wastewater customers (i.e., including the Town of Garner) with no discharge
of wastes to the surface waters, pursuant to the perrnit renewal application received Tanuary 12, 2006, and
subsequent additional information received by the Division, and in conformity with the project plan,
specifications, and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2011, shall void Permit No.
WQ0002708 issued August 13, 2001, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and
Iirritations.
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
,1! The wastewater treatment and surface 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, such as the construction of
additional or replacement wastewater treatment and disposal facilities,

2. Within ninety (90) days of permit issuance, all spray irrigation taking place within two hundred and
fifty (250) feet from the water supply well near the office building will cease, and the sprinklers
spraying within that area will be re -directed, Alternatively, the water supply well may be abandoned
in accordance with 15A NCAC 15C .0113. This is being required to comply with current Division
-policies regarding active water supply wells that are situated inside of compliance boundaries and are
in violation ofNCAC 2L .0107 (d).
3. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to surface
or groundwaterssesulting from the operation of this facility.
4. The residuals generated from these treatment facilities must be disposed in accordance with General
Statute §143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the Division.
5. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated wastewater from the treatment facilities is prohibited. The
Permittee shall, however, maintain the capability to divert a minimum of 250,000 gallons per day of
wastewater flow that would typically be tributary to the wastewater treatment and spray irrigation
facilities to the Permittee's Neuse River Wastewater Treatment plant (i.e., NPDES Permit No.
NC0029033) at all times. Alternate treatment and for disposal facilities may be designated to receive
this influent wastewater flow after approval has been applied for and granted by the Division.
6. The following buffers shall be maintained:
a) 400 feet between wetted area and any residence or places of public assembly tinder separate
ownership,
b) 150 feet between wetted area and property lines,
c) 100 feet between wetted area and wells,
d) 100 feet between wetted area and drainage ways or surface water bodies,
e) 50 feet between wetted area and public right of ways,
f) 100 feet between treatment/storage units and any wells, and
g) 50 feet between treatment units and property lines.
Some of the buffers specified above may not have been included in previous permits for this waste
treatment and disposal system. These buffers are not intended to prohibit or prevent modifications,
which are required by the Division, to improve performance of the existing treatment facility. These
buffers do, however, apply to modifications of the treatment and disposal facilities that are for the
purpose of increasing the flow that is tributary to the facility. These buffers do apply to any
expansion or modification of the irrigation areas and apply in instances in which the sale of property
would cause any of the buffers now complied with, for the treatment and disposal facilities, to be
violated. The applicant is advised that any modifications to the existing facilities will require a permit
modification.

1CI. PRETREATMENT RE r�AMNTS
A. Requirements for Control of Pollutants Attributable to Industrial Users
1. Pollutants attributable to inputs from industries using the municipal system may be present in the
Permittee°s discharge. At such time as sufficient information becomes available to establish
limitations for such pollutants, this perrriit may be revised to specify effluent limitations for any
or all of such other pollutants.
2. Under -no circumstances shall. the Permittee allow introduction of the following wastes in the
waste treatment system:
a. Pollutants which. create a fire or explosion hazard in the publicly -owned treatment works

than 140 degrees Fahrenheit or 60 degrees Centigrade using the test methods specified in
40 CFR 261.21;
b. Pollutants which will cause corrasive ' structural damage to the POTW, but -in no case
discharges with pH lower than 5.0, unless the works is specifically designed to
accommodate such discharges; `
c, Solid or viscous. pollutants in amounts which will cause obstruction to the flow in the .
POTW resulting in interference;
d. Any pollutant, including oxygen -demanding pollutants-(i.e., BOD, etc.) released in a
discharge at a flow rate and/or pollutant concentration with will cause interference with the
POTW;
e. Heat in amounts which will i ffiibit biological activity in the POTW resulting in
interference, but in no case heat in such quantities that the temperature at the POTW
treatment plant exceeds 40 degrees C (104 degrees F) unless. the Division, upon request of
the POTW, approves alternate temperature limits;
f. Petroleum oil, non biodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral origin in amounts that
will cause interference or pass through;
