Subject: Permit No. WQ0033589
Jennette's Pier
High -Rate Infiltration and
Conjunctive Reclaimed Water
Utilization System
Dare County
In accordance with your permit renewal request received July 29, 2013 and site visit performed
on September 6, 2013 by Division staff, we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0033589 dated
March 1, 2014, to NC DENR Division of Aquariums for the continued operation of the subject
wastewater treatment and high -rate infiltration and reclaimed water utilization facilities. Please note that
this renewed permit shall become effective on March 1, 2014 (i.e. the day after the expiration date of the
existing permit), which differs from the issuance date of this letter.
The modifications to the subject permit are as follows:
• Schedule conditions that were previously completed have been removed from
this permit;
• Nitrate monitoring and effluent limit of 10 mg/L has been removed from
Attachment A. Note that both ammonia and total nitrogen monitoring is still
required;
• Sample type has been changed from composite to grab samples for most
parameters;
• Flow distributed as reclaimed water, parameter WQ01, has been added to
Attachment A in order to track monthly flow sent to the Pier for reuse; and
• All groundwater monitoring requirements have been removed from this permit
including the previous Attachment C. Monitoring wells were never installed and
are no longer necessary for this system due to the reuse effluent quality.
This permit shall be effective from. March 1, 2014 until February 28, 2019 and shall be subject to
the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring

L SCHEDULES
1. 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.
111. 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 infiltration 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 infiltration 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. Effluent quality shall not exceed the limitations specified in Attachment A.
4. Application rates, whether hydraulic, nutrient or other pollutant, shall not exceed those specified in
Attachment B.
5. A usable green area shall be maintained for effluent disposal. The green area shall have the capability
of accommodating the facility's average daily flow without exceeding the green area loading rates.
As defined in 15A NCAC 02H .0404(g)(7), a "green area" is an area suitable for waste disposal,
either in its natural state or which has been modified by planting a vegetative cover of grasses or low
growing shrubbery.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. 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.
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).
WQ0033589 Version 2.0 Shell Version 130918 Page 2 of 10

not the Permittec and owns land within the compliance boundary shall execute and file with the Dare
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.
11. The facilities permitted herein shall be constructed according to the following setbacks:
a. The setbacks for high -rate infiltration sites shall be as follows (all distances in feet):
