hazardous substance through the facility; or any other unusual circumstances.
b. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the facility
incapable of adequate wastewater treatment such as mechanical or electrical failures

proper operation of the subject facilities.

Absorption Pit
WQ0005633 GWO1073
Macon County
Cullasaja Shell, Incorporated Laundromat consist of a non -discharge absorption lagoon which
receives discharge from 12 coin operated washing machines. There are no dry cleaning
machines and the lagoon receives only graywater from the washing machines. The lagoon
measures approximately 50 x 90 feet and is built above land surface. According to Mr. John
Norris, the owner, the seasonal high water table is estimated to be 6-7 feet based on visual
observation of excavations for septic tanks in the area.
Permit No. 6240-R dated June 2, 1987 states that this permit "shall void Permit No. 6240 issued .
November 4, 1980." Since the permit, was issued prior to December 30,1983, the compliance
boundary is located 500 feet from the waste boundary or at the property boundary, whichever is
closer to the source. The property boundary for this site is the Cullasaja River which is located
approximately 200-300 feet from the waste boundary.
This office recommends renewal of the subject permit. If you have any comments or questions,

Angela Griffin:DEM Review Engineer
FNoV2 21991
The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit
renewal application for the continued operation of a
non -discharge infiltration lagoon for the treatment of
laundry wastewater. The wastewater flow rate has averaged
600 GPD for the past three years; much less than the design
flow rate of 3,000 GPD stated in the Amendment to Permit No.
6240-R (issued May 3, 1988). The Amendment also removed
condition No. 10 from Permit No. 6240-R (issued June 2,
1987), which required the installation of two monitor wells.
Therefore, we have no objection to the reissuance of the
permit with the following conditions:
1. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed
necessary by the Division, shall be provided.
2. The Compliance Boundary for the disposal system is
specified by regulations in 15 NCAC 2L,
Groundwater Classifications and Standards. An
exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards beyond
the Compliance Boundary is subject to the penalty
provisions applicable under General Statute
143-215.6(1)a. The sale of property, by the
Permittee, which is within or contiguous to the
disposal site, may alter the location of the
Compliance Boundary.

For facilities permitted prior to December 30,
1983, the Compliance Boundary is established at a
distance of 500 feet from the perimeter of, the
waste disposal field, or the property boundary,
whichever is less.
If the title to any property which may affect the
location, of the. Compliance Boundary is changed,
the Permittee shall notify the DEM Director within
14 days. The Director shall then establish a
modified Compliance Boundary which will.be done -as
a modification to the Permit:
The REVIEW BOUNDARY for the disposal system is
specified by regulations in 15 NCAC 2L,
Groundwater Classifications and Standards.: A
REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around disposal
systems midway -between the Compliance Boundary and
the perimeter of the waste disposal area.When
the concentration of any substance equals or
exceeds the maximum allowable concentration of
that substance at the REVIEW BOUNDARY, as
determined by. monitoring, the permittee shall
either (i) 'demonstrate, through predictive
calculations or modeling, that natural site
conditions, facility design and operational
controls will prevent a violation of standards at
the Compliance Boundary; or, (ii) submit a plan
for the alteration of existing site conditions,
facility design or operational controls that will
prevent a violation of standards at the Compliance
Boundary, and implement that plan upon its
approval by the Director.

capacity design was reduced from 6000 (gallons per day) gpd to
3000 gpd. Perhaps a review of capacity will determine any

SUBJECT: Amendmen Request
Permit No. 6240-R
Cullasaya Shell
Macon County
This Office has reviewed the request to remove
Condition No. 10 from the subject permit. Condition No. 10
required the installation of two monitor wells and specified
a routine groundwater quality sampling program.
Since the, actual wastewater flow rate is much less than
the permitted 6000 gpd and no dry cleaning wastewaters are
involved, this Office has no objection to removal of
Condition No. 10.
It is our understanding that the permitted flow will be

SUBJECT: Amendment Request
Permit Number 6240-R
Cullasaja Shell
Macon County, North Carolina
The request for reduction in the size of the lagoon at Cullasaja
Shell appears to be justified. I have never seen the lagoon with more
than a foot of water in it. In'the summer about 3/4 of the bottom area
of the lagoon is normally dry.
I recommend allowing the 50% volume reduction and including the
following statement in the permit:
Discharges to the lagoon shall cease upon reaching
two feet of freeboard in the lagoon. Discharges
shall not resume until there is sufficient capacity
in the lagoon to contain the wastewater volume
produced during a full day of operation while still
maintaining two feet of freeboard.
The monitoring wells will be addressed by the Ground Water
Section.
If you need nything more, please let me know.

si i ohtl„ over 500 GPD.. This means our lagoon is practically cry
most of the year as i am sure any of your people that have
inspected our facility will agree with. By sales of detergents
and ether empty'. moxas, we have found that Tide is by far the 41
detergent used in our l aundromat . Enclosed is a Tide label which
list ingredients and state- that Tide is biodegradable and as far
as I have -p=ound out all detergents are similar to this. One last
note; I have a well 200 yards from this lagoon which the state of
North Carolina classifies as a community water supply due to our
campground business. They already require various 'pests
including an inorganic chemistry test. I could supply yre`._ with
test results or you could obtain certified 'Lest results from
Raleigh if this would help. Giving the above, we feel the test
well`___ are r Sot warranted due to the type of waste !!owing into the
lagoon and the extremely low rate of f i ow:
Sincerely yours,
john Norris
