Dear Mr. Weaver:
I request renewal of Permit #NC0043125 . No changes have been
made in the facility since Oct. 13, 2013 when the current permit
was issued.
Operation has continued since 2013 the same, except that at that
time our flow was so little I had been told to use NO FLOW on
monthly reports. In August 2017 Ms . Wiggs inspected the plant
and advised me to use c.001 flow and the BOD, TSS & NH3 & other
data to properly make my monthly reports. Results have all been
within limits except for November 2017 , when our BOD was slightly
over our limit for the month. This was found to be caused by an
electrical problem affecting our, aerator timers that must have
occurred some days before I took the BOD sample that was over limit,
causing a lack of aeration. I corrected this immediately and all
samples have been within normal limits since.
I request that our capacity rating be kept at 25000 gallons per
day, even though we use far less right nov . Our use is slowly
increasing as we restore buildings and put them to use, and my hope
is t once again operate a boarding school as we once did. We
presently host the Caldwell County Schools° Patterson Science
Center, which exposes all the county°s students to various science
education.
Our sludge removal plan is to have a commercial contractor pump
it whenever needed. This was last done in 2007 while Patterson
School was operating, and as yet showsno sign of needing it done
again. When needed we will have it pumped by a contractor.
I am sorry this is coming to you so late. I was reminded of the
need to do it by a recent email from Emily Phillips, for which
I am thankful.
Respectfully,
cl,V -
W. J. Hogan, Pres .
