Please pay special attention to the following items:
➢ Attachment A outlines effluent monitoring requirements for both the existing 150,000 GPD
wastewater treatment plant (PPI 001) and the proposed 400,000 GPD wastewater treatment
plant (PPI 002). Please note that effluent from each plant shall be sampled individually.
Effluent sampling for the proposed wastewater treatment plant outlined under PPI 002 shall
commence once construction of the proposed facility has been completed and the facility is
operational.
➢ Attachment B specifies allowable loading rates for the irrigation zones at the Sand Course,
the Piper Course, and the Bay Course. Irrigation zone names for the Bay Course have been
revised to be consistent with current golf course operations, and acreages have been corrected
based upon the existing course layout. It is very important that NDAR reporting forms be
filled out using the nomenclature provided in the permit for the irrigation zones.
If any parts, requirements or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, the Permittee
has the right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of
this permit. This request shall 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 at 6714 Mail
Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and
binding.
