request received August 14, 2006, we are forwarding herewith Permit Number WQ0011614, dated
September 29, 2006, to the County of Brunswick for the continued operation of the subject wastewater
treatment and reclaimed water utilization system.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until August 31, 2011, shall void Permit No.
WQ0011614 issued January 11, 2005, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified
therein. 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.
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:
• Condition II.2. — Note that completion of the repairs to the wastewater treatment facility
are required within 120 days of the issuance of this permit.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the
right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (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

surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation of this facility.
6. 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.

GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
1. Sampling Criteria:
2
a. Monitoring wells MW-1, MW-2 and MW-3 shall be sampled every July for the parameters
listed below. Prior to sampling the parameters, the measurement the measurement of water

above.

b. The results of the sampling and analysis must be received on Form GW-59 (Groundwater
Quality Monitoring: Compliance Report Form) by the Groundwater Section (address Iisted
above), on or before the last working day of the month following the sampling month. The
data of all groundwater sampling analyses required by the permit conditions must be reported
using the most recent GW-59 form along with attached copies of the laboratory analyses.
