Subject: Permit No. WQ0004728
Town of Fremont
Fremont Wastewater Treatment PIant
and Spray Irrigation Facilities
Wastewater Spray Irrigation System
Wayne County
In accordance with your permit renewal application received on December 14, 2000, we are forwarding
herewith Permit No. WQ0004728, dated May 14, 2001, to the Town of Fremont for the continued operation of
I
the subject wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2006; shall void Permit No.
WQ0004728, issued March 15, 1996; and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein.
This permit approves the continued operation of the subject wastewater treatment and spray irrigation
facilities for another five-year cycle. However, please take the time to review this permit thoroughly as some of
the conditions contained therein may have been added or changed since the last issuance of this permit. Of
special interest are the following:
♦ General: The system description has been amended to reflect the fact that, even though 43.5 acres
are available, only 29.0 acres of land is currently being used for spray irrigation (i.e., the remaining
14.5 acres have been removed from service).
♦ Condition I. 5.: A footnote has been added to this condition to acknowledge that the minimum
State -required buffer between the spray irrigation areas and drainageways (i.e., 100 feet) is not
being met by the current operation. Considering that the subject spray irrigation facilities are to be
taken off-line soon, the Division of Water Quality (Division) will not require that the facilities be
modified to remove this buffer violation.
♦ Condition H. 2.: This condition has been amended to reflect the adoption of new rules by the' Water
Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). The referenced
regulation is now 15A NCAC 8G A202.
♦ Condition II. 3.: This condition has been amended to reflect that a suitable vegetative cover needs
to be maintained on the spray irrigation field year round.

♦ Condition II. 7.: The Water Quality Section of the Division's Washington Regional Office has
confirmed that all of the 29.0 acres currently being sprayed upon is comprised of Nahunta soil
series. Therefore, this condition has been amended to remove references of maximum hydraulic
loading rates for other soil series. In addition, the cumulative pollutant loading rate language has
been retained in this permit condition, regardless of the fact that no significant industrial users
(SIUs) are currently tributary to the subject wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities.
♦ Section III: The Division is aware that there are no SIUs currently tributary to the subject
wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities. However, these pretreatment requirements are
being retained in this permit based on a recommendation from the Division's Pretreatment Unit. A
note has been added to remind the Permittee that compliance with this section of the permit would
only be required in the event that one or more SIJs become tributary to these facilities_
♦ Condition 1V. 2.: This is a new condition that is required in all permits issued to non -discharge
wastewater treatment and disposal systems in the State of North Carolina. Specifically, this
condition details the requirements for complying with the influent flow measuring policy adopted
by the Division of Water Quality (Division) on May 31, 2000. Daily influent flow volumes must
now be reported on Forth NDMR-1 such that this form would be submitted on a monthly basis.
♦ Condition IV. 3.: This is a new condition that requires that freeboard measurements be taken in
both of the treatment/storage lagoons on a daily basis using freeboard markers. If permanent
freeboard markers are not currently available, they must be installed within 30 days of this permit's
issuance. The results of such measurements have to be maintained by the Permittee for a period of
not less than five years.
♦ Condition N. 4.: This condition has been amended to remove the requirement to monitor the
amount of plant available nitrogen (PAN) and phosphorus applied to the wetted area of the spray
irrigation facilities, as it is not required to monitor the wastewater effluent for these parameters
♦ Condition IV. 5.. Note that fecal coliform must now be monitored (i.e., in lieu of total coliform) in
the wastewater effluent, per Division policy.
♦ Condition IV. 6.: Note that exchangeable sodium percentage has been added to the list of
parameters for which soil samples from the spray irrigation field must be analyzed on an annual
basis/.
♦ Condition IV. 7.: Because of the Division's influent wastewater flow measurement policy, Form
NDMR-1 must now be submitted on a monthly basis (i.e., following installation of the new influent
flow measurement device). Note also that this condition has been modified to remove the
requirement to submit annual soil analyses as well as to reflect the new mailing address to be used
when submitting Form NDAR-1 and NDMR-1.
♦ Condition IV. 8.: The- Permittee is now responsible for reporting any non -compliant events that
may cause an exceedance of the groundwater quality standards (i.e., 15A NCAC 2L) to occur.
Events of non-compliance must now be submitted to the Division in written form within five days
(i.e., reduced from 15 days) of the event's occurrence. Note also that the area code for the
Washington Regional Office's telephone number has changed from 919 to 252.
♦ Condition V. I. : Note that total ammonia -nitrogen must now be monitored (i.e., in lieu of
ammonia -nitrogen) in the groundwater and that additional analytical methods for volatile organic
compounds are now available for use. Furthermore, this condition now requires that all analyses
completed for the purpose of the groundwater monitoring program should be done by a laboratory
that has been Division -certified to perform the analysis for a specific parameter.
♦ Condition V. 5.: This condition has been amended to reflect the new mailing address to use when
sending in groundwater quality monitoring reports as well as to provide information as how to
obtain the most recent forms to use for the groundwater monitoring program.
2
♦ Condition VII. 3.: This condition has been amended to reflect the fact that an application fee is no
longer required when making an application to the Division to transfer this permit to a new owner or
to reissue this permit such that it reflects a name change of the Permittee.
♦ Condition VII, 5.: Language has been added to this condition to provide examples of some other
rules and regulations that may affect non -discharge systems like this one. In addition, this condition
has been amended to remind the Permittee that this permit does not preclude compliance with any
Special Order of Consent that has been approved by the Environmental Management Commission
for the subject wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities.
♦ Condition VII. 9.: This is a new condition that has been added to this permit to direct the Permittee
as to what actions will be necessary once the connection to the City of Goldboro's wastewater
collection system. Specifically, the Permittee will be required to request rescission of this permit as
well as a modification of the Permittee's system -wide wastewater collection system permit (i.e.,
Non -Discharge Permit No. WQCS00298) within 180 days of the connection.
As always, please pay particular attention to the monitoring requirements in this permit. Failure to
establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational information will result in
future compliance problems.
If any parts, requirements, or Iimitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this permit. This
request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General
Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-
6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.

WASTEWATER SPRAY IRRIGATION SYSTEM PERMIT
In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as amended,
and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
Town of Fremont
Wayne County
FOR THE
continued operation of a 246,000-gallon per day wastewater treatment and spray irrigation system, consisting of
the following minimum components: two facultative lagoons; a chlorination facility; a flow measuring device;
two 200-gallon per minute spray irrigation pumps; 43.5 acres of available spray irrigation area, 29.0 acres of
which are actively used for the purposes of spray irrigation with the remaining 14.5 acres having been removed
from service through the elimination or valving off of the sprinklers; and all associated piping, valves, controls,
and appurtenances necessary to make a complete and operational system. The above -described wastewater
treatment and spray irrigation disposal system is intended to serve the Town of Fremont and its wastewater
customers with no discharge of wastes to surface waters, pursuant to the permit renewal application received on
December 14, 2000, 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, 2006; shall void Permit No.
WQ0004728, issued March 15, 1996; and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The wastewater treatment and 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 groundwater
that will render them unsatisfactory for normal use. In the event that these facilities fail to perform
satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions or failure of the irrigation areas to
assimilate the wastewater adequately, 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.
2. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to
surface waters or groundwater resulting from the operation of the wastewater treatment and spray
irrigation facilities.
3. The residuals generated from the wastewater treatment facility shall be disposed in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute § 143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the Division.
4. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated wastewater from the wastewater treatment and/or spray
irrigation facilities shall be prohibited.
The following buffers shall be maintained by the wastewater treatment and spray irrigation
facilities;
a. 400 feet between the wetted area and any residence or place of public assembly under separate
ownership,
b. 150 feet between the wetted area and any property line,
c. 100 feet between the wetted area and any well (i.e., with the exception of an approved
groundwater monitoring well),
d. 100 feet between the wetted area and any drainageway or surface water',
e. 50 feet between the wetted area and any public right-of-way,
f. 100 feet between wastewater treatment units and any well (i.e., with the exception of an
approved groundwater monitoring well), and
g. 50 feet between wastewater treatment units and any property line.
Some of the buffers specified above may not have been included in previous permits for the
wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities. The Permittee does not have to modify
previously -approved facilities to comply with these buffers unless specifically required by the
Division to do so, nor are these buffers intended to prohibit or prevent modifications that may be
required by the Division to improve the performance of the existing facilities. These buffers do,
however, apply to modifications of the system that are for the purpose of increasing the wastewater
flow that is tributary to the facilities. These buffers do apply to any expansion or modification of
the facilities and apply in instances in which the sale of property would cause any of the buffers
with which the facilities now comply to be violated. The Permittee shall be advised that any
modification to the existing facilities will require a permit modification.
a The Division is aware that there are two drainageways running through the wetted area of the
spray irrigation facilities and, therefore, the Permittee is unable to comply fully with this
condition. Spray irrigation shall be allowed to proceed with the equipment as currently
installed, regardless of the fact that this buffer is violated.
11. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
The wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities shall be properly maintained and operated at
all times.
2. Upon classification of the wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities by the Water Pollution
Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall employ a
certified wastewater treatment plant operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the facilities. The
operator shall hold a certificate of the type and grade at least equivalent to or greater than the
classification assigned to the facilities by the WPCSOCC. The Permittee shall also employ a
certified back-up operator of the appropriate type and grade to comply with the conditions of 15A
NCAC 8G .0202. The ORC shall visit each Class I facility at least weekly and each Class II, Ill,
and IV facility at least daily, excluding weekends and holidays; shall properly manage and
document daily operation and maintenance of the facilities; and shall comply with all other
conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0202.

3. A suitable year-round vegetative cover shall be maintained on the wetted area of the spray irrigation
facilities.
4. Irrigation shall not be performed during inclement weather or when the ground is in a condition that
will cause runoff.
5. Adequate measures shall be taken to prevent wastewater runoff from the wetted area of the spray
irrigation facilities.
6. The wastewater treatment and spray irrigation facilities shall be effectively maintained and operated
as a non -discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastewater resulting from the operation
of these facilities.
7. The application rate onto the wetted area of the spray irrigation facilities shall not exceed a
cumulative loading of 52.0 inches over any 12-month period at an instantaneous application rate
such that runoff from the wetted area of the spray irrigation facilities does not occur. In addition to
the hydraulic parameters described above, the application rate onto the wetted area of the spray
irrigation facilities shall be such that the metal loading rates shall not exceed the following
