the necessary changes.
3. Upon completion of construction and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification
must be received from a professional engineer certifying that the permitted facility has been
installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other
supporting materials. If this project is to be completed in phases and partially certified, you shall
retain the responsibility to track further_ construction approved under the same permit, and shall
provide a final certificate of completion once the entire project has been completed. Mail the
Certification to the Land Application Unit, 1636 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1636.

hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday, excluding State Holidays.
5. The reclaimed water utilization 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.
6. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to
surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation of this facility.
7. 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.
8. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated wastewater from the treatment facilities is prohibited.
9. The following buffers shall be maintained:
a. 100 feet between wetted areas and water supply wells,

c. 25 feet between wetted areas and surface waters not classified as SA,
d. 100 feet between wastewater treatment units and wells,
e. 50 feet between reclaimed water storage/irrigation ponds and property lines, and
f. 50 feet between wastewater treatment units and property lines.
2

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.
10. Public access to the irrigation sites shall be controlled during active site use. Such controls may
include the posting of signs showing the activities being conducted at each site. A sign shall be
posted in plain sight in the clubhouse showing these activities.
11. The Pern ittee shall maintain an active cross -connection control program that shall have the
following minimum requirements:
a. No direct cross -connections shall be allowed between the reclaimed water and potable water
systems.
b. A reduced pressure principle backflow preventer, an approved air gap separation, or other
device approved by the Division shall be installed at the potable water service connection to
the use area where both reclaimed water and potable water are supplied to a reclaimed water
use area. The installation of the reduced pressure principle backflow prevention device shall
allow proper testing.
c. An air gap separation, approved and regularly inspected by the potable water supplier, shall
be provided between the potable water and reclaimed water systems where potable water is
used to supplement a reclaimed water system.
12_ The following shall be requirements for the reclaimed water distribution, storage, and utilization
facilities:
a. All reclaimed water valves, storage facilities, and outlets shall be tagged or labeled to warn
the public or employees that the water is not intended for drinking. Where appropriate, such
warning shall inform the public or employees to avoid contact with the water.

taped, or otherwise marked to identify the source of the water as being reclaimed water.
i. All reclaimed water piping and appurtenances shall be either colored purple (i.e., Pantone
522) and embossed or integrally stamped or marked "CAUTION: RECLAIMED
WATER — DO NOT DRINK" or be installed with a purple (i.e., Pantone 522)
identification tape or polyethylene vinyl wrap. The warning shall be stamped on opposite
sides of the pipe and repeated every three feet or less.
ii. Identification tape shall be at least three inches wide and have white or black lettering on
purple (i.e., Pantone 522) field stating "CAUTION: RECLAIMED WATER — DO NOT
DRINK." Identification tape shall be installed on top of reclaimed water pipelines,
fastened at least every 10 feet to each pipe length and run continuously the entire length
of the pipe.
c. All reclaimed water valves and outlets shall be of a type, or secured in a manner, that permits
operation by authorized personnel only.
d. Above -ground hose bibs (i.e., spigots or other hand -operated connections) shall not be

with standard hose bibs services, hose bibs, which can only be operated by a special tool or
connected to a special hose connection may be placed in non -lockable underground services
boxes clearly labeled as non -potable water.

a licensed sail scientist shall conduct an amended site evaluation. This report shall specifically
address, but not be limited to, the effects of grading/construction upon the original site evaluation,
and shall be submitted to the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) Aquifer Protection Section and
Wake County Environmental Services. The evaluation should include an investigation of key
areas of grading, including soil features such as depth to seasonal high water table, depth to
fractured bedrock, soil series, and similar soil features. The report should address the site
suitability to ensure the protection of groundwater and the appropriateness of the permitted
irrigation rate. Upon completion of site grading and shaping, the soil scientist shall contact the
RRO and Wake County Environmental Services to inquire whether or not it will be necessary for
staff to perform a revised site visit. No wastewater shall be introduced into the treatment system
until written approval from the Division of Water Quality is received.
