October 2,2013, written response to the Notice of Violation(NOV-2013-PC-0327)received in the Asheville

Attachment A to this letter.
Based"upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Town of Valdese violated the terms, conditions

$1250.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY
$137.00 ENFORCEMENT COST
$1387.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 14313-282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State,to the public health,or to private
property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or Resources or on air Resources;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
7 The prior record of the violator in complyingor failin to comply with programs over which the
( ) P g p Y p g
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (do
not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any
continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the attention of:
Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Resources
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they
may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the
proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual
statements contained in the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the -'
option of an administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an

administrative hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please
prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit
it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request
will be approved,the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b)was wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
(5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial
actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing.
The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of
his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status,
directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management
Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee
cannot consider information that was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director.
Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request
for remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed"Request for Remission of Civil
Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30) days
of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the
enclosed"Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should be submitted to the following addresses:

Re: Water Supply Well Analytical Results
3362 Sugarloaf Road
Henderson County,NC
Dear Mr. McGee,
Please find attached the analytical results for a water sample collected from your well located at
the address referenced above on December 4, 2013. The water sample was submitted for
laboratory analysis of fecal and total coliform bacteria. Analytical results indicate the presence of
fecal and total coliform bacteria in your well at 30 and 300 colony forming units per 100
milliliters (CFU/100 ml),respectively.
The December 4th water sample was collected as a follow up to a sample collected on September
10, 2013, which contained concentrations of fecal and total coliform bacteria at 8 and 2,300
CFU/100 ml,respectively. The results of the September 1 Oth sampling were summarized in a
letter to you dated November 15, 2013. Recall that a Biological Analysis Report completed by a
toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services and provided to
you with the November 15th letter, indicated that, based on the fecal and total coliform detections
in the September 101h sampling,your water should not be used for drinking, cooking, washing
dishes, bathing, or showering. Following receipt of the September 1 Oth results and based on
recommendations from this office, you disinfected your well in an attempt to remove the
bacteria.
You and I discussed the results of the December 41h bacterial analyses via phone soon after they
were received. We discussed several options for you including performing an additional well
disinfection, additional water sampling to evaluate the influence of your septic system on your
water quality, and evaluating the location and integrity of current and former underground piping
at your home. I am available to discuss your options for addressing the bacteria detections in
your well water. Additionally,the Water Quality Regional Operations Sections is willing to
resample your water as you work1to address the bacteria.

2. An NCWRC stocking permit is necessary for pond restocking. As of July 1,2005,anyone interested in stocking
inland fishing waters with fish,mollusks or crustaceans must obtain a stocking permit issued by the NC Wildlife
Resources Commission pursuant to 15A NCAC 1 OC .0209. The purpose of this new regulation is to protect
native or legally established aquatic species from the potentially damaging effects of unauthorized stockings
(Appendix 2.— 15A NCAC 1 OC .0209 Transportation of Live Fish as amended effective June 1,2005).
3. The water release structure for this dam must be designed for mid-column release during normal flows and during
low flow conditions.It must also provide for low flow release to the downstream channel, including during filling
of the pond. At no point should the downstream segments be dewatered by this activity. Also to help minimize
temperature elevation in waters downstream,trees should be maintained along the pond perimeters,but not on the
dams. Native trees(e.g.,river birch, sycamore,red maple)should be planted along the pond if trees are removed
or if additional shading of the pond surface is needed.
4. Please be aware that by having impacted streams without first applying for and securing the issuance of a 401
Water Quality Certification,you have violated Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code(NCAC)2H
.0500. Title 15A NCAC 2H.0500 requires certifications pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act
whenever construction or operation of facilities will result in a discharge into navigable waters, including
wetlands,as described in 33 Code of Federal Regulations(CFR)Part 323. It also states any person desiring
issuance of the State certification or coverage under a general certification required by Section 401 of the Federal
Water Pollution Control Act shall file with the Director of the North Carolina Division of Water Resources.
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A,these violations and any future violations are subject to a civil penalty assessment
of up to a maximum of$25,000.00 per day for each violation.
5. All downstream stabilization/remediation,as proposed in the submitted plans,shall be completed by July 1,
2014.
This approval and its conditions are final and binding unless contested.
This Certification can be contested as provided in Articles 3 and 4 of General Statute 150B by filing a written petition for

NPDES Permit: NC0000272
Dear Mr.Chiles,
The Division of Water Resources received your letter requesting rescission of the subject NOV on
December 16,2013.Your letter provided further clarity and detail regarding the probable cause of the
violation and the efforts undertaken by Evergreen and the Town of Canton to.address the issues.We
appreciate the time and effort involved in meeting on November 141h and in preparing the subject letter.
After careful review and consideration of this information and the compliance record,the Division has
determined that the NOV was warranted and therefore has elected not to rescind the NOV.
The compliance history indicates four previous limit violations for fecal coliform where the Division
chose not to issue NOVs based on specific circumstances surrounding the violations.The Division has
considered the efforts undertaken by Evergreen and the Town of Canton, precipitation events,
construction efforts to remediate the cause of the violations,etc.,and has chosen not to assess civil
penalties to date.
The Division appreciates your efforts and tenacity in addressing the fecal coliform exceedances and
ensuring compliance with the subject permit.
Please feel free to contact me at 828-296-4680 if you have any further questions regarding this matter.

Re.: Analytical Results for Private Supply Well in Buncombe County
referred to here as the Bear Leah Trail"camper"well
Dear Mr. Hart,
Please find attached the analytical results for samples collected from the water supply
well located at Bear Leah Trail"camper"well in Buncombe County by the Asheville Regional
Office Division of Water Resources on October 22, 2013. Samples were collected at the well
head and were analyzed for a host of constituents including nutrients (ammonia,total kjeldahl
- nitrogen, nitrate, nitrite, and total phosphorous),fecal and total coliform bacteria,dissolved
and total metals, chloride,fluoride,sulfate, methylene blue active substances(MBAS),total
dissolved solids,and turbidity. All constituents were below the Environmental Protection
Agency(EPA) maximum contaminant level (MCL) or action level and the North Carolina
Administrative Code(NCAC)Title 15A 2L.0202(2L)groundwater standards with the exception
of total and dissolved iron,total and dissolved manganese, and total coliform bacteria. Total
iron was observed at 12,000 ug/L, dissolved iron at 11,000 ug/L,total manganese at 260 ug/L,
dissolved manganese at 250 ug/L, and total coliform bacteria at 6 colony forming units(CFUs)
per 100 mL. Note that fecal coliform bacteria were reported at 1 B2 CFUs,signifying their
absence in the collected sample.
The analytical results were provided to the Occupational and Environmental
Epidemiology Branch of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services,for a
Health Risk Evaluation (HRE). Recommendations from this evaluation are attached. These
recommendations state that,due to the presence of total coliform bacteria,your water should
not be used for drinking or cooking unless it has been boiled for 3 minutes. The
recommendations also state that,due to the presence of iron and manganese at the levels
observed,the well water should not be used for drinking or cooking unless you install a water
treatment system to remove those constituents. The water may be used for washing, cleaning,

Subject: Fiber Trap Assessment and Monitoring
Blue Ridge Tissue Corp. - Patterson Mill
NPDES Permit NC0006254
Caldwell County
Dear Mr. Hallock,
The Division of Water Resources (DWR) recently notified you that additional groundwater
monitoring wells will be required at your Patterson Mill in Caldwell County, as authorized by
Section B of Part III in your current NPDES permit. Based on existing data, it appears the biotic
breakdown of organic material in your unlined fiber traps is creating anoxic conditions that
solubilize iron and manganese oxyhydroxide minerals. Additionally, this anoxic process water
appears to be recharging local groundwater; therefore, directly responsible for the occurrence
of iron and possibly manganese concentrations above the North Carolina Groundwater
Standard, 15A NCAC 2L .0202. Our request for additional monitoring wells will determine
groundwater quality conditions at your permitted compliance boundary.
In your response letter (November 21, 2013), you delayed the installation of the compliance
boundary monitoring wells so that monitoring well MW-1 could be reevaluated as the sole
background well. You contend that monitoring well MW-5 does not appear to provide either
and up-gradient or cross-gradient reference point to the subject site nor is it in the same rock
type as the other monitoring wells. You maintain that monitoring well MW-1 is in a good
location and request further explanation as to why MW-1 is not an acceptable background well
location.
Groundwater movement across the Blue Ridge Tissue property encompasses three hydrologic
zones referred to as saprolite, transition, and fractured crystalline bedrock. The groundwater

potentiometric map generated by AECOM (see attached map) largely depicts groundwater flow
within the saprolite zone. Groundwater movement within the transition zone and crystalline
bedrock has yet to be defined. The contours on the map show groundwater flowing in a radial
pattern away from a knoll or groundwater recharge area near the fire sprinkler reservoir.
Groundwater quality should be somewhat consistent across this recharge area. Despite some
remaining questions as to the interpretation of groundwater contours north of the fiber traps,
all treatment works and monitoring wells (including MW5) are located down-gradient of this
recharge area.
Groundwater quality north of the recharge area (MW-5) is characterized by low iron-in-
groundwater concentrations, low specific conductivity, and aerobic conditions. Groundwater
quality immediately south of the recharge area (MW-2 & MW-3) is characterized by high iron-
in-groundwater concentrations, elevated specific conductivity, and anaerobic conditions.
Groundwater quality near the Yadkin River (MW-1 & MW-4) is very similar to the south side of
the recharge area; namely, high iron-in-groundwater concentrations, elevated specific
conductivity, and anaerobic conditions.
In your response, you attribute this discrepancy in groundwater quality to differences in
lithology. The AECOM report associates monitoring well MW-5 with a schist unit north of the
recharge area. Monitoring wells south of the recharge area are associated with a gneiss unit.
The boundary between these two geologic units was identified using the state geologic map.
Caution should be exercised in using the state geologic map for site investigations because of its j
small scale (1:500,000) and lack of detail. The NC Geologic Survey also warns of possible
georectification issues associated with the location of these geologic boundaries. This
uncertainty is further supported by AECOM's own boring logs which associates monitoring well
MW-4 with a schist rock. A more detailed site investigation is recommended before assigning
specific geologic units to the monitoring wells.
The Division feels strongly that monitoring well MW-5 represents the natural background
concentration for iron-in-groundwater in the vicinity of the recharge area. In our experience, a
natural iron-in-groundwater concentration greater than 30 mg/I would be extraordinary for
western North Carolina. Background iron-in-groundwater concentrations at your former land
application site (Wagner Property) are less than 1 mg/l. Our limited survey (June 2012) of
drinking water wells in Patterson, NC found iron-in-groundwater concentrations ranging from
non-detect to less than 1 mg/l. A groundwater study of the Morganton Area by the State of
North Carolina found 85% of all drinking water wells surveyed contained iron concentrations
less than 0.3 mg/l.
Existing evidence suggests that a plume of anoxic water originating at the fiber traps is
infiltrating all three hydrologic zones on the south side of the recharge area and extends to the
Yadkin River near the production plant. Northeast/southwest trending fractures/joints/faults in
the crystalline bedrock provide a likely conduit for the anoxic process water to reach areas r'
farther out such as monitoring well MW-1. Monitoring well MW-1 is a poor background well --'

location because of its proximity to a groundwater discharge area and evidence suggesting a
connection to the anoxic plume.
You will be required to construct, at minimum, two down-gradient wells at the compliance
boundary. You can continue to use MW-5 as the background well or select a new location that
is acceptable to the Division. Initially, you will need to submit a site map depicting all applicable
regulatory boundaries and any proposed monitoring well locations. Based on the origination
date of your NPDES permit (1979), the compliance boundary will be established 500 feet from
the waste boundary or at the property boundary, whichever is closer to the source. A
groundwater review boundary is not required for this facility.
Please respond to this office within 60 days of receipt of this letter. We are available to meet
and discuss the groundwater monitoring requirements in greater detail. I am available if you
have any additional questions or concerns. I can be reached at (828) 296-4681 or

Inspection Summary: \
Since the last inspection the Town has made considerable efforts to replace and rehab several thousand feet of sewer
line.As a result from this work there has been a decline in reportable sewer overflows even during a year of excessive
rainfall. The Town continues to make progress generating a GIS map of the utilities.The Town also has a good cleaning
and inspection program in place and Mr. Robert Hayatt and crew continue to do the preventive maintenance which will
extend the overall life of the collection system. The Town plans to rehab or replace portions of the 24 inch line by the
fairgrounds as this area continues to be problemic during heavy rainfall events.

Subject: Minimum Flow Required to Bypass Water Intake
NCG530157
Transylvania County
Mr.Zeigler:
On December 18, 2013, Landon Davidson and I inspected your water intake located along Bart Creek(Class C; Tr). The
existing water bypass structure was not actively bypassing flow to the Bart Creek below the water intake. It should be
noted that North Carolina General Statutes § 106-763 (b)requires that"[rlesidual flow in a natural watercourse below the
point of water withdrawal supplying an aquaculture operation shall be sufficient to prevent destruction or serious
-,diminution of downstream fishery habitat and shall be consistent with rules adopted by the Environmental Management
Commission. (1993, c. 18, s.2.)"
A reduction in downstream channel flows can be considered as a water quality standards violation(Removal of Best
Usage. (15A NCAC 02B .0211 (2)).
15A NCAC 02B .0211 (2) [] The waters shall be suitable for aquatic life propagation and maintenance of
biological integrity,wildlife, secondary recreation, and agriculture; sources of water pollution which preclude any
of these uses on either a short-term or long-term basis shall be considered to be violating a water quality standard.
You should take immediate actions to install permanent bypass structures that will provide sufficient down stream flows
to protect aquatic habitat and propagation at all times.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at [e-mail],or at 828-296-4657 should you have any further
questions.

Ms. Hoxit:
On December 18, 2013, Landon Davidson and I met with you onsite to discuss your concerns about the existing
trout farm water intake, and its maintenance. This letter is to provide additional information and resources as
discussed during this site visit.
During the site visit,we discussed"maintenance of an existing structure" and the permit that is applicable for
that activity. In the attached U.S. Army Corps of Engineer's Nationwide Permit,the Regional General
Conditions, and Water Quality Certification, you will note that the Nationwide Permit clearly states that the
issuance of an approval to perform work under that Permit does not convey a right to property access. It should
also be noted that the Water Quality Certification, by rule, "certifies"that the person working under that
Certification is not violating the Water Quality Standards for the authorized activity, as long as the Certification
conditions are being complied with. (15A NCAC 02H .0506 (a)).
15A NCAC 02H .0506 (a) Certification shall be issued where the Director determines water quality
standards are met, including protection of existing uses.
With regard to unauthorized excavation of streams, stream alterations which would require coverage under a
Water Quality Certification, or a reduction in downstream channel flows,the Division of Water Resources
views the reduction in wetted area(removal of flows), and the removal of aquatic substrate (habitat) as a water
quality standards violation(Removal of Best Usage (15A NCAC 02B .0211 (2)),.
15A NCAC 02B .0211 (2) [] The waters shall be suitable for aquatic life propagation and maintenance
of biological integrity,wildlife, secondary recreation, and agriculture; sources of water pollution which
preclude any of these uses on either a short-term or long-term basis shall be considered to be violating a
water quality standard.
With respect to your desire to excavate the stream channel above the water intake,the Division of Water
Resources relies on North Carolina State Universities published regional curve (please find attached) in
determining the need for excavation, and by how much. In determining the appropriate channels size, the
drainage area draining to the desired work area will need to be determined and then the existing channel
-,..dimensions can be extrapolated from the provided graphs.

Based upon the submitted monitoring report,you must complete the following:
• The"mowed"30 foot buffer segments need to be replanted and flagged, fenced, or signed to keep vegetation
disturbing activities out of these required buffers.
• Notification to the Division of Water Resources will be made once planting is complete and the vegetation will be
monitored for success for an additional 2 years(planting+two annual monitoring seasons)utilizing the same
success criteria as submitted in the 401 Water Quality Certification application.
No further stream stability monitoring is required,as the submitted report indicates 5 years of stability.

Inspections of the Burke County Collection System program since 2007 have been non-compliant. The most recent
inspection performed in May of 2013 noted the lack of a Capital Improvement Plan reinvestment for this system.
However, it was discussed at the May 2013 inspection that a flow study on the Hildebran section of the collection system
-vas being performed to assist in evaluating the possible causes of Inflow and Infiltration in conjunction with the Indian

I'
Inspection Summary:
There have been five inspections of this permit prior to the inspection on May 13, 2013. Upon review of these inspections
none have been compliant. This inspection is also non-compliant for many of the same reasons as documented in the
previous inspections. DWQ will work with Burke County through 2013 to gain compliance. Another inspection will be
performed in 2014; if compliance is not achieved by the next inspection then this Office will move immediately toward
Enforcement. Obviously the County's money would be better spent on the collection system than on fines; please ensure
that the deficiencies noted below are corrected.
Insufficient CIP-(I. Performance Standards#6.):
Reinvestment back into the collection system is a mandatory component for any municipality. There is no indication that
revenues from wastewater are being put back into the collection system. The Permittee shall adopt and implement a CIP
to designate funding for reinvestment in the wastewater collection system infrastructure. It is understood that funds(not
from revenues)which were previously allocated to the system have yielded positive improvements as well as enabling the
County to evaluate flows into the system. It is also understood that Burke County is a receiving collection system for
several municipalities and wishes to get out of the sewer transportation business. The approximate capital improvement
budget for the collection system was reported as$0. Until such time that Burke County does get out of the sewer
business, they will have to manage their system as the permit requires. Please ensure that sufficient monies are
allocated for the collection system maintenance and improvements.
Insufficient Record Keeping/Documentation-(II. Operation and Maintenance#2,#4, #7, #8.; III. Records#1.;V.
Inspections#1-4):
The County has to organize files specifically for documentation of the permit requirements. Please have a system set up
for record keeping by the next inspection. How the County chooses to set this up can be determined by the County as
long as it meets the permit requirements noted above and the inspector can glean the appropriate information from the
files.

Comment: The inspection and testing records of this pump station are insufficient.
The wet well had excessive grease and debris; the ORC was told it should be
pumped/cleaned. He stated to raise the level for pumping would cause an SSO,
however the county is looking into using a biologic treatment in the wet well to reduce
grease.

SUBJECT: Compliance Sampling Inspection
Baton Elementary School WWTP
Permit No: NCO030783
Caldwell County
Dear Mr. Church:
On January 15, 2014, I conducted a Compliance Sampling Inspection at the Baton School wastewater facility.
Jerry Younce with Water tech Labs and Steve Soots with Caldwell County Schools were present during the
inspection. Their time and efforts are appreciated. The facility appeared to be in compliance with permit
NC0030783.
The main treatment component of this wastewater system is a buried sand filter. The main delivery components
of this wastewater system are two pump stations. The influent pump station, which pumps the wastewater from
the building to the septic tank, may need cleaning at the end of the school year. This pump station had some
debris in the wet well and on the floats; it is suggested that school staff be reminded not to dispose of rags,
feminine hygiene etc. type of products down the toilets. The effluent pump station, which pumps the treated
;wastewater to the stream, may need a light bulb for the visual alarm.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for more detailed observations and comments. If you or your staff
have any questions,please call me at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
Linda Wiggs

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary) yJ, .
Inspector met with Jerry Younce and Steve Soots; both are doing a good job and their efforts with this
system are appreciated. This is an old, high maintenance system requiring plenty of attention. Because the
sandfilter bed is buried, keeping this system viable is dependent on the maintenance of the septic tank and
pump stations.
Refer to the question section for specific suggestions.
Effluent Sample Results:
Fecal Coliform - 140 colonies/1OOml
Total Suspended Solids -<6.2 mg/I

Is audible and visual alarm available and operational? ■ Q n
Comment: This pump station carries the wastewater from the school to the septic
tank. There was some floating debris in the wet well. The county personnel stated they
have spoken with the school about not flushing certain items. The floats were slightly
` caked with debris. It is suggested this pump stations residuals be monitored with a
sludge judge type of device and be cleaned out as necessary or at least when the septic
tank is pumped. The county is having to replace/rebuild the pumps —every other year.
Keeping debris from reaching the pump station as well as maintenance and pump run
time set up will help to extend the life of the pumps.
Septic Tank Yes No NA NE
(if pumps are used)Is an audible and visual alarm operational? ❑ Cl ■ 0
Is septic tank pumped on a schedule? ■ n 0 n
Are pumps or syphons operating properly? ❑ n ■ n

Comment: The tank is pumped every other year and is due this year.
A sludge judge type device could be used to determine solids level in the tank. It is
suggested that the solids level be checked monthly and in each chamber. However, the
lids are extremely heavy, please make sure the manpower is available to lift the lids
safely.
Sand Filters(Low rate) Yes No NA NE

#Is the sand filter surface free of algae or excessive vegetation? n n ■ n
#Is the sand filter effluent re-circulated at a valid ratio?(Approximately 3 to 1) n n ■ n
Comment: This sand filter is covered, therefore cannot be evaluated except via
effluent samples. The distribution lines are the old terra cotta type and are likely leaking
and not properly distributing the wastewater. It appears there is not a distribution box,
only a large septic tank with chambers. Since this system is buried, the only means of
determining proper operation are the effluent samples, which do indicate compliance.
Disinfection -UV Yes No NA NE
Are extra UV bulbs available on site? n n ■ n
Are UV bulbs clean? n n n ■
Is UV intensity adequate? n n n ■
Is transmittance at or above designed level? n n n ■
Is there a backup system on site? ■ n n n
Is effluent clear and free of solids? ■ n n n
Comment: Extra lights are not kept onsite, which is ok since they are kept at the
school or ORC maintenance building. This UV system appears to just have indicator
lights and the remainder of the system is enclosed. The ORC determines if the UV
system is working by Fecal Coliform samples. Since these samples are only taken twice
a month, this may not be a reliable means of determining the system operations.
However, the ORC has worked out a system of cleaning/replacing the bulbs to stay on
top of the Fecal Coliform numbers.
There is an old tablet chlorinator set up in the tank preceeding the UV building which
could be used in an emergency.Although, there is not a dechlorination unit in place.

Pump Station-Effluent Yes No NA NE
Comment: The visual alarm did not illuminate. Please fix the visual alarm.
The county is having to replace/rebuild the pumps —every other year. This could be an
indication that the pumps are working too hard, it would be worth evaluating this pump
station to see if there is a means to extend the life of the pumps. The pump station is
reported as being fairly old. If this pump station were to fail, the school would be in an
"emergency pump and haul situation".

The roof on the main building and the WWTP is in a state of disrepair and the operator is unable to use it to
store equipment or paperwork.As stated in previous inspection reports the facility should be repainted to
protect from rust and extend the overall lifespan of the plant.
The facility is operated well. No violations of permit requirements or applicableregulations were observed

SUBJECT: Compliance Sampling Inspection
Oak Hill Elementary School WWTP
Permit No: NCO041220
Caldwell County
Dear Mr. Church:
On January 15, 2014, I conducted a Compliance Sampling Inspection of the Oak Hill School Wastewater
Treatment Plant (WWTP). Jerry Younce with Water tech Labs and Steve Soots with Caldwell County Schools
were present during the inspection. Their time and efforts are appreciated. The facility appeared to be in
compliance with permit NC0041220. However, the distribution box and lines are aged allowing leaking and
improper discharge of the wastewater onto the sandfilter bed. If this is allowed to continue the sand can be
compromised which, as you are aware, is a costly repair. To get the most useful life of the treatment sand, it is
suggested this summer the distribution box is resealed and the distribution lines be replaced.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments. If you or your staff
have any questions,please call me at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
Linda Wiggs

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Met with Jerry Younce (ORC)and Steve Soots (Caldwell County Schools)on site.
Overall the facility appears to be operating satisfactorily. However, the old distribution lines are not properly
functioning. The wastewater should be distributed through these line and discharged over the entire area of
the sandfilter bed. The sandfilter bed is the main treatment unit of the system. If the wastewater is not
spread across the entire sandfilter then proper treatment is compromised. When wastewater only
discharges to small areas of the sandfilter, the system can short circuit and stop working effectively.
Replacement of the sand is a costly matter, therefore maintaining proper distribution of the watewater is
essential. It is suggested the old terra cotta lines be replaced along with resealing the distribution box.

Comment: The distribution box has a very large heavy concrete lid that cannot easily
be lifted, so it is unknown if the distribution lines are equally dosing. The box itself does
appear level and water tight though.
The system was dosing during the inspection. The distribution lines are old terra cotta
lines. The wastewater was only dosing to a couple of locations on the sand filter bed.
One of those locations was right at the distribution box indicating a poor seal.

RE: Update on Old Jonas Ridge Road Groundwater
Investigation (Avery County)
Dear Mr. Carpenter,
On March 19, 2013,representatives of the Division of Water Resources (DWR) met with
you to discuss analytical results from a water supply well located at 726 Old Jonas Ridge
Road in Avery County. The well in question continues to serve the production and drinking
water needs for Vaughn's Blue Ridge Nursery:located at the same address.You were
informed that a water sample collected from your well in June 2008 contained levels of
dieldrin and BHC-Gamma (Lindane) above the NC groundwater standard, 15A NCAC 02L
.0202.You were also notified that the Division would be conducting a limited investigation
of water supply wells near the nursery.The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our
findings to date.
The attached map shows the locations of seven water supply wells sampled in 2013.All
water samples were analyzed for lead,arsenic, nitrate, nitrite and organochlorine
pesticides.Six of the water supply wells had detectable levels of nitrate below the NC
groundwater standard but no pesticides were detected.The water supply well located at
730 Old Jonas Ridge Road contained the insecticide chlordane at a concentration above the
NC groundwater standard.
The homeowner (730 Old Jonas Ridge Road) also informed us of an agricultural hydrant on
his property that is connected to your nursery production well. Permission was granted to
collect a sample from the hydrant, as the homeowner indicated he had legal access to this
water source. Analytical results indicate the presence of nitrate, dieldrin, and the fungicide

ethazole in your production well. Concentrations are given in the table below. The
following table summarizes the attached analytical results. Please note that the bolded
values indicate levels above the NC Groundwater Standard, 15A NCAC 2L.0202. The results
are shown in units of micrograms of contaminant per liter of water and are approximately
equivalent to part per billion (ppb).

The result for dieldrin is consistent with previous sampling results. Because ethazole was
not previously detected,a sample from your well head is needed to verify its actual
presence in the well.A Health Risk Evaluation (HRE) was performed by toxicologists Dr.
Ken Rudo and Sandy Mort with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human
Services.The HRE,which is enclosed,makes specific recommendations for use of your
water based on the presence of dieldrin.With regards to the presence of ethazole,the
toxicologist (Sandy Mort) verbally cautions against prolonged dermal or skin contact with
water from the well. In a greenhouse environment,prolonged dermal exposure would
include activities like watering and misting.
The Division will keep you updated as we continue to monitor groundwater quality in this
area. If you have questions concerning the HRE, please contact Dr. Ken Rudo at (919) 707-
5911. If you have questions concerning the dermal contact recommendations,please
contact Sandy Mort at [phone]. If you have any questions regarding the analytical
results, please contact me at(828) 296-4681.

Information on Your Private Well Water
Your well water was laboratory tested for chemical contaminants. Drinking water may contain chemical
contaminants which can occur naturally or be Introduced Into water from man-made sources. The
chemicals found in your well were introduced from man-made shbrces. In order to evaluate your laboratory
results for chemical contaminants, your water results were compared to the national primary drinking water
standards or maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) (see website for basis for each MCL at
httg:j/www eoa gov/safewater/contaminants/index html#mcls). MCLs are national drinking water standards
that are required to be met by municipal water supplies. If an MCL was not available, your water results
were compared to the North Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards.
Recommendations for Uses of Your Private Well Water
The concentrations found In your well water do not exceed the recommended EPA levels/North
Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards.Therefore, your water could be used for drinking, cooking,
washing dishes, bathing, and showering. Resampling Is not needed.
.t
Contaminant concentrations found in your well water are higher than the EPA recommended levels
for drinkin a d cooking. These contaminants Include
Your well water should not be used for drinking or cooking. If you have been drinking
the well water and are pregnant, nursing, or have a child under m years of age, Inform
your physician of the results.
Because of the low levels,very little absorption of these chemicals is expected
through intact skin. However, having open wounds or burns could result in a
greater absorption of these chemicals. Therefore,.if you have open wounds or
V/ burns on your skin, limit showering and bathing time to under 5 minutes.
�+® Because of the high levels, absorption of these chemicals could occur through
Intact skin. Therefore, limit showering and bathing time to 5 to 10 minutes.
® Because of the very high levels, significant absorption of these chemicals could
occur through Intact skin. Therefore, this water should not be used for
showering and bathing.
.....�..� You may want to purchase a water treatment device, drill a new well that is distantly located from
the groundwater contamination, use battled water, or connect to a public water supply.
Resampling•is recommended in months.

Re: Water Supply Well Analytical Results
7610 Linville Falls Hwy.
Avery County,NC
Dear Ms. Stroup,
Please find attached the analytical results for a water sample collected from your well located at
the address referenced above on November 18, 2013. The water sample was submitted for
laboratory analyses of fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, chlorinated pesticides, acid
herbicides, and selected metals.
No fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria,chlorinated pesticides, or acid herbicides were
detected. Several naturally-occurring metals were detected in the water sample. However,no
metals were detected above their Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)maximum
contaminant levels (MCLs). Two metals, aluminum and iron, were detected above their EPA
secondary drinking water standards. Constituents that are detected above the EPA's secondary
drinking water standards may cause cosmetic or aesthetic effects such as taste, color, or odor in
your drinking water,but are generally not considered a health risk.
Following receipt of the finalized laboratory analytical report for the November 18th sampling, I
requested that a Health Risk Evaluation(HRE) of your water supply be performed by a
toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. Three reports
were provided by Dr. Ken Rudo as part of the HRE and are attached to this letter: a Biological
Analysis Report based on the fecal and total coliform analyses; an Organic Chemical Analysis
Report based on the chlorinated pesticide and acid herbicide analyses; and an Inorganic
Chemical Analysis Report based on the metals analysis. The Biological Analysis Report and the
Organic Chemical Analysis Report indicate your water can be used for drinking, cooking,
washing dishes, bathing, and showering. The Inorganic Chemical Analysis Report indicates your
water can be used for drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering, but that
based on the metals analysis, aesthetic problems with the water may occur. If you have any
questions regarding the reports,please contact Dr. Rudo at(919) 707-5911.

determine the source of the lead and/or copper.
OTHER CON ME'RATIONS
Routine well water sampling for the above substances,,is recommended every two to three years. Sample
your well water when there is a known problem or eofitamination in your area,after repairs or replacement of
your well,or after a flooding event. Contact your local health department for sampling instructions.

Sample Identification umber:
Information on Your Private Well Water
Your well water was laboratory tested for chemical contaminants. Drinking water may contain chemical
contaminants which can occur naturally or be introduced into water from man-made sources. The
chemicals found in your well were introduced from manmade sources. In order to evaluate your laboratory
results for chemical contaminants, your water results were compared to the national primary drinking water
standards or maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) (see website for basis for each MCL at
gip•/Iw w_,epa.aav/safewateacont minantslindgx htm fmcis). MCLs are national drinking water standards
that are required to be met by municipal water supplies. If an MCL was not available, your water results
were compared to the North Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards.
(Recommendations for Uses of Your Private Well Water
The concentrations found in your well water do not exceed the recommended EPA levels/North
Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards. Therefore, your water could be used for drinking, cooking,
washing dishes, bathing, and showering. Resampling is not needed.
Contaminant concentrations found in your well water are higher than the EPA recommended levels
for drinking and cooking. These contaminants include
Your well water should not be used for drinking or cooking. If you have been drinking
the well water and are pregnant, nursing, or have a child under 5 years of age, inform
your physician of the results.
Because of the low levels,very little absorption of these chemicals Is expected
through intact skin. However, having open wounds or burns could result in a
greater absorption of these chemicals. Therefore, if you have open wounds or
burns on your skin, limit showering and bathing time to under 5 minutes.
Because of the high levels, absorption of these chemicals could occur through
intact skin. Therefore, limit showering and bathing time to 5 to 10 minutes.
Because of the very high levels, significant absorption of these chemicals could
occur through intact skin. Therefore, this water should not be used for
showering and bathing.
You may want to purchase a water treatment device, drill a new well that is distantly located from
the groundwater contamination, use bottled water, or connect to a public water supply.
Resampling is recommended In months.

Re: Water Supply Well Analytical Results
201 Bowman Road
Avery County,NC
Dear Mr. Wiseman,
Please find attached the analytical results for a water sample collected from your well located at
the address referenced above on November 18, 2013. The water sample was submitted for
laboratory analyses of fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, chlorinated pesticides, and
selected metals.
No fecal coliform bacteria, total coliform bacteria, or chlorinated pesticides were detected.
Several naturally-occurring metals were detected in the water sample. However,no metals were
detected above their Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)maximum contaminant levels
(MCLs). Two metals, aluminum and iron,were detected above their EPA secondary drinking
water standards. Constituents that are detected above the EPA's secondary drinking water
standards may cause cosmetic or aesthetic effects such as taste, color, or odor in your drinking
water, but are generally not considered a health risk.
Following receipt of the fmalized laboratory analytical report for the November 18th sampling, I
requested that a Health Risk Evaluation(HRE) of your water supply be performed by a
toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. Three reports
were provided by Dr. Ken Rudo as part of the HRE and are attached to this letter: a Biological
Analysis Report based on the fecal and total coliform analyses; an Organic Chemical Analysis
Report based on the chlorinated pesticide analysis; and an Inorganic Chemical Analysis Report
based on the metals analysis. The Biological Analysis Report and the Organic Chemical Analysis
Report indicate your water can be used for drinking, cooking,washing dishes,bathing, and
showering. The Inorganic Chemical Analysis Report indicates your water can be used for
drinking cooking, washing,cleaning,bathing, and showering,but that based on the metals

information on Your Private Well Water
Your well water was laboratory tested for chemical contaminants. Drinking water may contain chemical
contaminants which can occur naturally or be Introduced into water from man-made sources. The
chemicals found in your well were introduced from man-made sources. In order to evaluate your laboratory
results for chemical contaminants, your water results were compared to the national primary drinking water
standards or maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) (see website for basis for each MCL at
httg; ww .e a. y/sal water_fcantaminant finde ml cis}. MCLs are national drinking water standards
that are required to be met by municipal water supplies. If an MCL was not available, your water results
were compared to the North Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards.
Recommendations for Uses of Your Private Well Water
� The concentrations found in your well water do not exceed the recommended F-PA levels/North
m
Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards. Therefore, your water could be used for drinking, cooking,
washing dishes, bathing, and showering. Resampling is not needed.
Contaminant concentrations found in your well water are higher than the EPA recommended levels
for drinking and cooking. These contaminants include
Your well water should not be used for drinking or cooking. If you have been drinking
the well water and are pregnant, nursing, or have a child under 5 years of age, inform
your physician of the results.
Because of the low levels, very little absorption of these chemicals is expected
through intact skin. However, raving open wounds or burns could result in a
greater absorption of these chemicals. Therefore, if you have open wounds or
burns on your skin, limit showering and bathing time to under 5 minutes.
Because of the high levels, absorption of these chemicals could occur through
intact skin. Therefore, limit showering and bathing time to 5 to io minutes,
—� Because of the very high levels, significant absorption of these chemicals could
occur through intact skin. Therefore, this water should itot be used for
showering and bathing.
�.�..,You may want to purchase a water treatment device, drill a new well that is distantly located from
the groundwater contamination, use bottled water, or connect to a public water supply.
Resampling is recommended in months.

Re: Water Supply Well Analytical Results
350 Hidden Meadows Lane
Avery County,NC
Dear Mr. Wiseman,
Please find attached the analytical results for a water sample collected from your well located at
the address referenced above on November 18,2013. The water sample was submitted for
laboratory analyses of fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, chlorinated pesticides, and
selected metals.
No fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, or chlorinated pesticides were detected.
Several naturally-occurring metals were detected in the water sample. However, no metals were
detected above their Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)maximum contaminant levels
(MCLs).
Following receipt of the finalized laboratory analytical report for the November 18th sampling, I
requested that a Health Risk Evaluation(HRE)of your water supply be performed by a
toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. Three reports
were provided by Dr. Ken Rudo as part of the HRE and are attached to this letter: a Biological
Analysis Report based on the fecal and total coliform analyses; an Organic Chemical Analysis
Report based on the chlorinated pesticide analysis; and an Inorganic Chemical Analysis Report
based on the metals analysis. The reports indicate your water can be used for drinking, cooking,
washing dishes,bathing,and showering. If you have any questions regarding the reports,please
contact Dr. Rudo at(919) 707-5911.

Information on Your Private Well Water
Your well water was laboratory tested for chemical contaminants, Drinking water may contain chemical
contaminants which can occur naturally or be introduced into water from manmade sources. The
chemicals found in your well were introduced from man-made sources. in order to evaluate your laboratory
results for chemical contaminants, your water results were compared to the national primary drinking water
standards or maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) (see website for basis for each MCL at
httpJ/www..P- a;.gov/ afewatgacontaminants index htme#mcis). MCLs are national drinking water standards
that are required to be met by municipal water supplies. If an MCL was not available, your water results
were compared to the North Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards.
iRecoilnmendations for Uses of Your Private Well Water
The concentrations found in your well water do not exceed the recommende EPA ford
el�aaking,
Carolina 2L Groundwater Standards. Therefore, your water could be sed
washing dishes, bathing, and showering. Resampling is not needed.
—�� Contaminant concentrations found in your well water are higher than the EPA recommended levels
for drinking and cooking. These contaminants include
Your well water should not be used for drinking or cooking. If you have been drinking %
the well water and are pregnant, nursing, or have a child under 15 years of age, inform
your physician of the results.
Because of the low levels, very tittle absorption of these chemicals is expected
through Intact skin. However, having open wounds or burns could result in a
greater absorption of these chemicals. Therefore, If you have opens wounds or
burns on your skin, lirnit showering and bathing time to under S minutes.
�*-■� Because of the high levels, absorption of these chemicais could occur through
intact skin. Therefore, limit showering and bathing time to 9 to iQ minutes.
Because of the very high levels, significant absorption of these chemicals could
occur through intact skin. Therefore,this water should not be used for
showering and bathing.
�.� You may want to purchase a water treatment device, drill a new well that is distantly located from
the groundwater contamination, use bottled water, or connect to a public water supply.
Resampling'is recommended in months.

Dear Mr. Cranford: Graham County, North Carolina
The Town of Robbinsville received a permit for the above referenced project dated
November 14, 2013. Since the time of the permit application, revisions have added additional
8-inch sewer line to the project. We would like to modify the amount of 8-inch sewer line
from the original amount in the permit of 2,058 lineal feet to 2,557 lineal feet. No other items
in the permit application need to be modified.
If you have any questions on the request for permit modification, please contact Mike
Waresak or myself at any time. The project will be advertised for bids soon and construction
should begin this spring.

SUBJECT: Compliance Sampling Inspection
Gateway Alternate School WWTP
Permit No: NCO041157
Caldwell County
Dear Mr. Church:
On January 15, 2014, I conducted a Compliance Sampling Inspection of the Gateway School wastewater
facility. The facility was marginally compliant with permit NC0041157. There are areas that need to be
addressed for compliance to be achieved.
Two areas specifically need immediate attention. There appears to be an illicit discharge draining to a gutter
drain. At the corner of the white brick building (Picture 1) a small (-2") pipe was draining water from inside
the building into a black corrugated roof drain extension pipe which was discharging onto the driveway. This
pipe needs to be connected to the adjacent sewer drain, also seen in the picture. The next area that needs
immediate attention is the flow of storm water onto the septic tank (Picture 2). There have recently been
improvements made to storm water flows alongside the sand filter bed. However, the storm water flows
draining from the driveway, roof drain and other impervious areas uphill of the septic tank continue to drain
onto the septic tank. Perhaps a berm can be installed alongside the driveway to direct storm flows into the
wooded area near the bottom.
Once these repairs are made, please contact me so we can discuss the possibility of changing this permit.
Gateway is currently under an Individual NPDES wastewater permit. It is possible that this school can go under
a General NPDES wastewater permit. A General permit would save the school annual fees, as well as operation
cost. Upon discussions with Steve Soots, it is reported that the school only functions for—50 students (and staff)
and has a daily flows of less than 1,000 gallons. If this remains the intended use of this facility, it may be worth
considering this change of permits. Another money saving item to this change would be flows could be
directed back to the original discharge location; therefore the pump station associated with this system would no
longer be needed. I have attached an application and the General permit for your consideration. Again please
contact me to discuss this option.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Present during the inspection was Jerry Younce.
The pipe discharging water from inside the white brick building to the gutter drain needs to be directed to the
sewer system.
There is a significant amount of stormwater flows that are flowing onto/into the septic tank. These flows
need to be redirected.
The lid to the distribution box and possibly the distribution lines need to be evaluated for replacement.
(Note to file: email January 17, 2014, between Charles Weaver and Linda Wiggs)
Caldwell County Schools should consider the money saving option of going to a NCG550000 permit.
Applicability of the system: existing single pass discharging less than 1,000 gallons per day.
Treatment system includes septic tank, sandfilter, disinfection, dechlorination and step/cascade discharge.
The system also has a pump station as a result of increased flows decades ago. This pump station is high
maintenance and cost. The pump station would no longer be necessary under the NCG550000 permit;
discharge to the adjacent stream could resume.
The Gateway school does not operate a kitchen and has —50 students and staff.
Later date discussions with Steve Soots revealed well record flows from 2012-2013 indicate that daily flows
for this facility are <1,000 gallons. A water leak during February 2012 was the exception.
Effluent Sample Results:
Fecal Coliform - 1 colony/100ml
TSS - <6.2 mg/I
BOD -<2 mg/I ;

Is the plant generally clean with acceptable housekeeping? ■ n n n
Does the facility analyze process control parameters,for ex: MLSS, WRT,Settleable Solids, pH, DO,Sludge n n ■ n
Judge, and other that are applicable?
Comment: The overall facility is well kept. Recently stormwater flows were redirected
away from the sandfilter bed along newly installed swales. However, there are still
stormwater flows getting to this system from the paved area uphill of the septic tank.
This has to be fixed. The school needs to evaluate the best method of diverting the
stormwater flow away from the septic tank.
Another item that has to be fixed is an illicit discharge located at the corner of the white
brick building. A pipe (from a sink?) is coming from the building that should have been
tied into the sewerline but has been tied into the black gutter drain.
Septic Tank Yes No NA NE
(If pumps are used)Is an audible and visual alarm operational? n n ■ n
Is septic tank pumped on a schedule? ■ n n n
Are pumps or syphons operating properly? n n ■ n
Are high and low water alarms operating properly? n n ■ n
Comment: Suggest checking the solids level in the septic tank on a regular basis. The
old concrete lids are very heavy and brittle so caution should be exercised.
See above: excessive stormwater is flowing onto and likely into the septic tank.
Sand Filters(Low rate) Yes No NA NE
(If pumps are used)Is an audible and visible alarm Present and operational? n n ■ n
Is the distribution box level and watertight? n ■ n n
Is sand filter free of ponding? ■ n n n

#Is the sand filter surface free of algae or excessive vegetation? ■ n n n
#Is the sand filter effluent re-circulated at a valid ratio?(Approximately 3 to 1) n n ■ n
Comment: The lid on the distribution box has decayed to a point that when it is lifted it
will likely crumble. This lid is no longer water tight and needs replacing.
The distribution lines are aged terra cotta lines. It is possible these lines are doing an
inadequate job of dispersing the wastewater over the sand bed. On the day of the
inspection it did not appear that there was isolated ponding; however, the sandbed had
just been raked making a proper evaluation difficult. If it is found that inadequate
distribution of the wastewater is taking place then replacement of the lines should be
considered.

Comment: The pump station (PS)operation and maintenance is conducted by the
Caldwell County School Maintenance staff, who were unable to attend the inspection.
Therefore, the PS was not properly evaluated. Upon research through the Central
Office, it was derermined this PS was installed in the early 80s due to an increase in the
permitted flow from 0.03 to 0.04 MGD. Prior to this PS the system discharged to the
adjacent stream.

Dear Mr. Callicutt:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Collection System Inspection conducted on December 12, 2013. This
inspection was prompted by the 15,000 gallon sewer spill which occurred on Deep Creek on November 5, 2013.
The portions of the pump station which failed on November 5 were observed during this visit and appear to be
working properly now. A recommendation of enforcement action was made due to the volume of wastewater
and the circumstances which lead to the overflow.
The assistance provided by Mr. Tom Shook and Mr. Travis McCall is greatly appreciated and their excellent job
of managing the collection system along with all the associated paper work should be noted. The facility was
found to be in compliance with permit WQCS00170.
Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments. If you or your staff
have any questions,please call me at 828-296-4500.

Inspection Summary:
This inspection was prompted by the 15,000 gallon sewer spill which occurred on Deep Creek on November 5, 2013.The
portions of the pump station which failed on November 5 were observed during this visit and appear to be working
properly now.A recommendation of enforcement action was made due to the volume of wastewater and the
circumstances which lead to the overflow.
Since the last inspection the Jenkins Branch Line has been replaced with full ductile iron.
The Town has paper maps of the system which have not been converted into a GPS format.The Town would benefit
greatly by having the water and wastewater utilities transferred into a GPS format.
This inspection also included inventory of the tools made available to the utility crews to carry out their duties. Things
which could use replacement or upgrading include; a new pipe horn, a sewer camera, and possibly a larger vac truck with
jetter.
The assistance provided by Mr. Tom Shook and Mr. Travis McCall is greatly appreciated and their excellent job of
managing the collection system along with all the associated paper work should be noted.

Dear Mr. Callicutt:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection conducted on December 12, 2013.
Currently the bar screen is off line and is being machined off site. Solids and plastics are directly entering the
facility as a result. As noted in previous inspection reports there is a significant amount of grease making it way
to the WWTP. The Town has an adequate grease program but would benefit from further investigating where
the large contributions of grease are coming from. The facility was found to be incompliance with permit

Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments. If you or your staff
have any questions,please call me at 828-296-4500.

Subject:Disposal options for biosolids (residual)
City of Morganton
Wastewater Treatment Facility
Burke County, NC
Dear Mr. Lackey,
The Division of Water Resources (DWR) has explored the disposal options available for the
biosolids recently found at the subject facility. Our goal was to make every effort to identify
affordable disposal options that comply with applicable regulations. In examining these options,
it seems the disposal options are limited and although the emplacement date is unknown,
current regulations for residual disposal would apply. Applicable regulations may be found in
15A NCAC 2T.1100.
For the 2000 cubic yards of biosolids to be excavated to stabilize the slope, disposal in
accordance with 15A NCAC 2T is required which would include disposal utilizing one of the
following:
1. Landfill,
2. Off-site land application via a Class B permit,
3. Process through the Class A distribution of residual solids permit WQ0002127,
4. On-site disposal at a different location via a surface disposal permit or,
5. Incineration

If the City desires to dispose of the excavated residuals by either surface disposal or off-
site land application, a permit will be required prior to disposal that sets minimum
criteria pursuant to 15A NCAC 2T.
For the biosolids remaining in place following slope stability operations:
1. Conduct a limited groundwater assessment to determine if the biosolids have impacted
groundwater.The Division will be available to review a workplan for this effort to assist
if requested. If groundwater is not impacted, no further action will be required. If
groundwater is impacted,the Division will require that a compliance boundary be
established pursuant to 15A NCAC 2L.0107 through the existing NPDES permit.
Groundwater monitoring would be required to determine compliance with 15A NCAC
2L. Groundwater monitoring requirements would then be added to the existing NPDES
permit.Violations of groundwater quality at the compliance boundary would need to be
addressed pursuant to 15A NCAC 2L.0106.
2. Excavate and dispose of pursuant to 15A NCAC 2T.
The Division fully acknowledges that the City of Morganton is expending significant funds
toward upgrades to the wastewater plant infrastructure. With these costs and the related SOC
timeline, addressing the biosolids can be accomplished on a variable timeline. We are available
to discuss these issues. Please contact me when you have had a chance to review these '
options. I can be reached at [e-mail] or at [phone].
