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
Swan Quarter Sanitary District
Hyde County
FOR THE
continued operation of a 125,000 gallon per day (GPD) wastewater treatment and irrigation facility
consisting of:
a wastewater treatment facility, consisting of an influent flow meter, a seven -acre facultative treatment
lagoon and a seven -acre storage lagoon, each with a 325,000 square foot synthetic geomembrane 40-mil
liner, chlorine contact tank with chlorine gas storage unit and feeder system, an effluent flowmeter, an
effluent irrigation pump station with two 900-gpm pumps, all associated piping and appurtenances; and
distribution piping for spray irrigation of 125,000 GPD onto 58.1 acres, which consists of 5,300 linear
feet of 8-inch force main, 21,960 linear feet of 6-inch sanitary sewer force main serving as spray

L SCHEDULES
No later than six months prior to the expiration of this permit, the Permittee shall request renewal of
this permit on official Division forms. Upon receipt of the request, the Division will review the
adequacy of the facilities described therein, and if warranted, will renew the permit for such period of
time and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem appropriate. Please note Rule 15A
NCAC 02T .0105(d) requires an updated site map to be submitted with the permit renewal
application.
2. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0404(e), if the subject wastewater treatment or irrigation
facilities are in noncompliance with the terms and conditions of this permit, governing statutes or
regulations, the subject facilities shall be connected to an operational publicly owned wastewater
collection system within 180 days of its availability. Prior to the initiation of these connection
activities, appropriate Division approval shall be received.
Within 60 days of the effective date of this permit, monitoring wells 3, 5, and 6 as shown on Figure 1
shall be permanently abandoned. Within 30 days of abandonment, a Well Abandonment Record
(Form GW-30) listing this permit number and the appropriate monitoring well identification number
shall be completed for each well abandoned and mailed to the Division of Water Resources, Water
Quality Pennitting Section, Non -Discharge Permitting Unit, 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC
27699-1617. A North Carolina Certified Well Contractor shall abandon the monitoring wells
according to the North Carolina Well Construction Standards (15A NCAC 02C .0113) and local
county rules.
4. Within 60 days of the effecting date of this permit, surface water collection point 2 (SW-2) shall be
moved from its current location to a point closer MW-4 (See Figure 1). A representative of the
Washington District Office shall be on site to approve the new location of SW-2. Latitude and
longitude readings for both SW-1 and SW-2 shall be reported.
II. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The subject non -discharge facilities shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times so there
is no discharge to surface waters, nor any contravention of groundwater or surface water standards.
In the event the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions
due to improper operation and maintenance, or failure of the irrigation areas to adequately assimilate
the effluent, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective actions including Division required actions,
such as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or irrigation facilities.
2. This permit shall not relieve the Permittee of their responsibility for damages to groundwater or
surface water resulting from the operation of this facility.
3. All wells constructed for purposes of groundwater monitoring shall be constructed in accordance with
15A NCAC 02C .0108 (Standards of Construction for Wells Other than Water Supply), and any other
jurisdictional laws and regulations pertaining to well construction.
4. Effluent quality shall not exceed the limitations specified in Attachment A.
5. Application rates, whether hydraulic, nutrient or other pollutant, shall not exceed those specified in
Attachment B.
6. The irrigation system shall be connected to a rain or moisture sensor, which shall indicate when
effluent application is not appropriate in accordance with Conditions I1I.4. and 111.5. of this permit.
WQ0019665 Version 3.0 Shell Version 141027 Page 2 of 10

7. The compliance boundary for the disposal system shall be specified in accordance with 15A NCAC
02L .0107(b). This disposal system was individually permitted on or after December 30, 1983;
therefore, the compliance boundary is established at either 250 feet from the effluent disposal area, or
50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the effluent disposal area. An
exceedance of groundwater standards at or beyond the compliance boundary is subject to remediation
action according to 15A NCAC 02L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C.
8. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0108, the review boundary is established midway between the
compliance boundary and the effluent disposal area. Any exceedance of groundwater standards at the
review boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0106.
9. The Permittee shall apply for a permit modification to establish a new compliance boundary prior to
any sale or transfer of property affecting a compliance boundary.
10. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0107(d), no wells, excluding Division approved monitoring
wells, shall be constructed within the compliance boundary except as provided for in 15A NCAC 02L
.0107(g).
11. Except as provided for in 15A NCAC 02L .0107(g), the Permittee shall ensure any landowner who is
not the Permittee and owns land within the compliance boundary shall execute and file with the Hyde
County Register of Deeds an easement running with the land containing the following items:
a. A notice of the permit and number or other description as allowed in 15A NCAC 02L .0107(f)(1);
b. Prohibits construction and operation of water supply wells within the compliance boundary; and
c. Reserves the right of the Permittee or the State to enter the property within the compliance
boundary for purposes related to the permit.
The Director may terminate the easement when its purpose has been fulfilled or is no longer needed.
12. The following buffers shall be maintained:
a) 400 feet between wetted area and any residence or places of public assembly under 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.
