Repairs and maintenance work are needed immediately. The town will report back to the inspector documenting work accomplished. Documentation of work completed by the town was received in Asheville Office on March 5, 2014.An itemized list of work as well as photo and video documentation were sent verifying work completed. Various components of the Wastewater Treatment plant(WWTP)were pumped by Appalachian Pumping including the bar screens, digester, wet wells and troughs on clarifiers, splitter box, and contact chamber. The skimmer/sweeper arm chain in the gear box on clarifier#1 was fixed. Prior to next winter the town needs to consider moving the Isco sampler into the chemical building or build a structure to protect the sampler from extreme weather. Along with the ongoing expense of maintenance of the WWTP, this facility could use a separate blower for the aeration basin and the digester. Currently both operate on same system which can starve 02 for one or the other depending on usage. Overall the facility was not in bad shape even though there were maintenance issues that needed attention. The ORC wears many hats for the town and has to manage his time for various functions. Regardless of the other demands placed on the ORCs time, he does appear to be a conscientious operator and the town did willingly supply him with immediate resources upon the request of the inspector.

System is fairly new; 1996 with 204 customers in town and 18 out of town.The system is smoke tested yearly. Personnel stated right of ways are accessible if need be. Both pump stations need work immediately.The town will respond back to the inspector with documentation of the work completed. Documentation of work completed by the town was received in the Asheville Office on March 5, 2014.An itemized list of work as well as photo and video documentation were sent verifying work completed. Both pump/lift stations were cleaned and pumped. The alarm systems were repaired and now work. Both had simple repairs needed. It is suggested that these station be on a pumping schedule depending on fats/debris buildup. On 2/21/2014 the inspector emailed the ORC the Operational Log Package which consists of various forms related to collection systems. Overall the program is well managed. These were pump station maintenance issues that needed immediate attention; this will be an ongoing demand of the ORCs and towns time and resources. Another helpful ongoing maintenance practice of a collection system is cleaning; if the the town plans to clean their system they should consider the feasibility of purchasing a jetter system vs contracting this service out.

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 I\i, remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below. In ..,mining whether.a remission request will be approved,the following factors shall be zonsidered: (1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(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 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).

The water sample was submitted for laboratory analyses of fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, nitrates, semi-volatile organic compounds(SVOCs), chlorinated pesticides,phosphorus-based pesticides,nitrogen- based pesticides, acid herbicides,and selected metals. No fecal coliform bacteria,total coliform bacteria, SVOCs,phosphorus-based pesticides, nitrogen-based pesticides, or acid herbicides were detected in the water sample collected January 8th.Nitrates were detected at a concentration below any applicable State or federal standard. Several naturally-occurring metals were detected in the water sample below applicable standards. However, iron and manganese were detected above their North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC)Title 15A 2L .0202 groundwater standards. Dieldrin, a chlorinated pesticide,was detected above the NCAC 21,groundwater standard. The following table summarizes the results for parameters detected above their NCAC 2L groundwater standards. The results are shown in units of micrograms per liter(µg/1) of water, which is equivalent to part per billion(ppb). WATER QUALITY REGIONAL OPERATIONS SECTION North Carolina Division of Water Resources—Asheville Regional Office 2090 U.S.Highway 70,Swannanoa,N.C. 28778 Phone(828)296-4500 FAX (828)299-7043 Internet: h2o.enr.state.nc.us An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer Powell Wheeler March 18,2014 Page 2 of 2 -------------------------- Iron 300 7,400 Manganese 50 240 Dieldrin 0.002 0.02 J J indicates the parameter was detected above the laboratory's method detection limit,but below the laboratory's practical quantitation limit. Based on the detections of iron,manganese, and dieldrin,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. The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless you install a water treatment system. In addition,the HRE recommends limiting bathing and shower times to under ten minutes. This is the same HRE provided to you in an email on February 28, 2014. If you have any questions regarding the HRE, please contact Dr. Rudo at(919) 707-591 l On February 25, 2014, I collected two soil samples from the area around the well house to determine if the source of the dieldrin could be attributed to the application of a termiticide to the foundation of the well house. The results are forthcoming. I will provide you a letter summarizing the results when the analyses are complete. If you have any questions,please contact me at(828)296-4684.

Based upon the above fmdings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Resources, I, G.

' 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 _ing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative _.earing 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 14313-282.1(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 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.

The SOC contains provisions for the assessment of stipulated penalties when modified limits are exceeded or schedule dates are not met. A review of Catawba River Pollution Control Facility WWTP's monitoring report for December 2013 showed the following violations: Parameter Date Interim Limit Reported Value Limit Type BOD 12/28/2013 120 mg/I 169 mg/I Weekly Average Exceeded TSS 12/28/2013 150 mg/I 256.33 mg/I Weekly Average Exceeded You are directed to immediately take whatever remedial actions are necessary to correct the problems that have led to this violation.

Bradshaw Volunteer Fire and Rescue, Inc. is now the owner of the school property. It is a small Fire Department, so there will be limited flow to the wastewater system (<1,000 gallons per day GPD). They may host a couple of community events during the year, but still expect the flow to be <1,000 GPD.Therefore, they have applied for coverage under the General Permit NCG550000,which has been issued (NCG551618). The facility has not been in use for a couple of years so during the inspection there were some maintenance needs pointed out to Mr. Adkins and Mr. Crowder. The maintenance needs included vegetation growth in the sand bed and chlorine chamber, a crack in the 2nd lateral, the tablet cylinders' broken bottom and the effluent pipe was buried in sediment. I also pointed out an eroding streambank that should be repaired. Photo documentation was received via email 3/11/2014 from Richie Crowder verifying these maintenance. needs had been addressed. The inspector discussed the importance of operation and maintenance with the new owner; such as the pumps and alarms (checking floats), keeping vegetation from growing in the sandbeds, and making sure chemicals are used correctly so they don't cause a problem in the receiving stream. It was also suggested the chemicals be stored inside. The effluent pipe is at a culvert and the junction of two streams. This is naturally a depositional area for a stream, so checking on the effluent pipe will be an ongoing maintenance need to keep it from being covered up. Finally there was some streambank erosion of the corner of the security fence. If this erosion is not repaired it could get worse and compromise the fence. Question Abbreviations: NA= Not Applicable NE = Not Evaluated Page# 2 Permit: NCO066729 Owner-Facility: Bradshaw Fire&Rescue WWTP Inspection Date: 02/17/2014 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Operations&Maintenance Yes. No NA NE Is the plant generally clean with acceptable housekeeping? ■ n n n Does the facility analyze process control parameters,for ex: MLSS,WIRT,Settleable Solids,pH,DO,Sludge n n ■ 0 Judge,and other that are applicable? Comment: The system has not been in operation for over a year. It has recently been sold. There is vegetation that needs to be removed throughout the treament units. See summary for update. Permit Yes No NA NE (If the present permit expires in 6 months or less). Has the permittee submitted a new application? n ❑ ■ n Is the facility as described in the permit? ■ Cl n n #Are there any special conditions for the permit? n n ■ n Is access to the plant site restricted to the general public? ■ n n n Is the inspector granted access to all areas for inspection? ■ n n ❑ Comment: There is a new owner, the local fire department. This sytem will not discharge more than 1,000 gallons per day, therefore the new owners are requesting coverage under the NCG550000 general permit. See summary. -' Grease Removal Yes No NA NE #Is automatic grease removal present? n n ■ n Is grease removal operating properly? n n ■ n Comment: There are no grease traps. The school used to freeze their grease and discard appropriately. This same practice is suggested for new owners.

Repairs to the 2nd lateral will have to be made; there is a crack midway up the line. Also the vegetation that has grown in the filter will have to be removed. As discussed, vegetation roots can cause a direct pathway for water through the sand. The water needs to be well dispersed across the sand so it can flow through the largest area possible for treatment. See summary for update.

D ❑ n If effluent (diffuser pipes are required) are they operating properly? n o m n Comment: The effluent pipe is at the junction of two streams and a culvert, which is an area of a stream that will accumulate sediment buildup. We had to dig to find the effluent pipe. The effluent pipe needs to remain exposed. Keeping sediment buildup off of the effluent pipe will be an ongoing maintenance issue. Also there is some bank erosion by the corner of the fencing around the chlori ne/dech lori nation units. This should be repaired to avoid further erosion which could compromise the fence.

The following item specifies a permit condition that was in violation during the time of the review. 1. Attachment C of the subject permit requires monitoring wells MW-1, MW-2, and MW-3 to be sampled every March, July, & November. A review of the Forms GW-59 indicates that the wells were sampled in December 2013. To prevent further enforcement actions, please sample monitoring wells as specified in your permit. Failure to comply with conditions in a permit may result in a recommendation of enforcement action to the Director of the Division of Water Resources who may issue a civil penalty assessment of not more that twenty-five thousand ($25,000) dollars against any "person" who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions,or requirements of a permit under authority of G.S. 143-215.6A.

The samples were analyzed by the Division of Water Resources (Division)for total metals,dissolved metals, chloride,sulfate,fluoride, boron, nutrients,(40 Bear Leah Trail only),alkalinity, bicarbonate,total dissolved solids,and total and fecal coliform bacteria. In addition, thallium was analyzed by Pace Laboratories,a contract laboratory. Duke Energy Progress'(Duke) contractor Synterra also collected water samples at the two wells on February 6th and analyzed them independently. In addition,Synterra's subcontractor EGIS, PA, used a downhole camera to observe the integrity of the well casing,fracture locations, and other aspects of both wells and their construction. The work conducted on February 6th is part of a continuing investigation of potential coal ash constituents in groundwater in your area. 38 Bear Leah Trail Samples were collected at the well head using a peristaltic pump from a depth of 56 ft below the top of well casing, corresponding to the depth of an observed, producing(in-flowing)fracture set. Water in the well was cloudy and contained evidence of iron flocculant/iron bacteria. All sampled constituents were below the North Carolina Administrative Code(NCAC)Title 15A 2L.0202 groundwater standards(2L standards) with the exception of iron (2L standard of 300 ug/L)and manganese (2L standard of 50 ug/L). Total iron was 33,000 ug/L,and dissolved iron was 18,000 ug/L. Total and dissolved manganese were both 780 ug/L. Based on the concentrations of iron and manganese detected in the water sample, l requested that a Health Risk Evaluation (HRE) of the water supply be performed by a toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services(DHHS).The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless you install a water treatment system to remove the iron. It is my understanding that you already have a treatment system installed to remove iron. If you would like to have the water inside your home tested post-treatment, please let me know. In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding the HRE, please contact Dr. Rudo at(919) 707-5911. An Equal Opportunity i Affirmative Action Employer—Made in part by recycled paper Mr. Kent Mottidger March 27,2014 Page 2 of 2 40 Bear Leah Trail Samples were collected at the well head using a peristaltic pump from a depth of 15 ft below the top of the well casing. This depth was chosen because down-hole camera observations revealed that the bulk of groundwater flow into the well is occurring at the leaky interface between the well casing and bedrock, 11 feet below the top of well casing. Because your well's casing is not seated in bedrock enough to preclude the inflow of shallow groundwater(groundwater not from bedrock),the water in your well is being'drawn primarily from shallow groundwater moving through surface soils near the well head. Dog waste and other pollutants present on the land surface are a potential source of contamination to your well. It is recommended that you consult with a certified well driller and (or)water treatment specialist to discuss options for repair(e.g., installation of a liner), replacement,or water treatment. All constituents tested were below the 2L standards with the exception of total coliform bacteria (21- standard of 1 colony forming unit(CFU) per 100 mL)which was 600 CFU/100 mL. The presence of total coliform suggests the potential presence of harmful pathogens and is likely due,at least in part,to the leaky well casing discussed above. Based on the presence of total coliform in the water sample, I requested that an HRE be performed by DHHS for this water supply. The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless it is first boiled for 3 minutes. Also, if you would like to use the well water for drinking or cooking purposes in the future, it is strongly recommended that you chlorinate and re-test the well prior to its continued use. Note that the sample named 1C1161ind1 on the Pace Laboratories thallium results is a duplicate sample collected at 40 Bear Leah Trail. These data and recommendations for 40 Bear Leah Trail have also been provided to Jimi Mottinger. Please contact me at(828) 296-4683 if you have any questions or would like to discuss my observations of the downhole camerawork.

The samples were analyzed by the Division of Water Resources (Division)for total metals,dissolved metals,chloride,sulfate,fluoride,boron,nutrients,alkalinity, bicarbonate,total dissolved solids,and total and fecal coliform bacteria. In addition,thallium was analyzed by Pace Laboratories, a contract laboratory. Duke Energy Progress' (Duke)contractor Synterra also collected water samples at the well on February 6th and analyzed them independently. In addition, Synterra's subcontractor EGIS, PA, used a downhole camera to observe the integrity of the well casing, fracture locations,and other aspects of the well and its construction. The work conducted on February 6th is part of a continuing investigation of potential coal ash constituents in groundwater in your area. Samples were collected at the well head using a peristaltic pump from a depth of 15 ft below the top of the well casing. This depth was chosen because down-hole camera observations revealed that the bulk of groundwater flow into the well is occurring at the leaky interface between the well casing and bedrock, 11 feet below the top of well casing. Because your well casing is not seated in bedrock enough to preclude the inflow of shallow groundwater(groundwater not from bedrock),the water in your well is being drawn primarily from shallow groundwater moving through surface soils near the well head. Dog waste and other pollutants present on the land surface are a potential source of contamination to your well. It is recommended that you consult with a certified well driller and (or)water treatment specialist to discuss options for repair(i.e., installation of a liner), replacement,or water treatment. All constituents tested were below the North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC)Title 15A 2L.0202 groundwater standards(2L standards)with the exception of total coliform bacteria (2L standard of 1 colony forming unit(CFU) per 100 mL)which was 600 CFU/100 mL. The presence of total coliform suggests the potential presence of harmful pathogens and is likely due,at least in part,to the leaky well casing discussed above. Based on the presence of total coliform in the water sample, I requested that a Health Risk Evaluation (HRE) be performed by a toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services(DHHS): The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless it is first boiled for 3 minutes. Also, if you would like to use the well water for drinking or cooking An Equal Opportunity 11 Affirmative Action Employer—Made in part by recycled paper Ms.Jimi Mottinger March 27,2014 Page 2 of 2 purposes in the future, it is strongly recommended that you chlorinate and re-test the well prior to its `- continued use. In the meantime,if you have any questions regarding the HRE, please contact Dr. Rudo at (919)707-5911. Note that the sample named 1C11BIind1 on the Pace Laboratories thallium results is a duplicate sample collected at the well at 40 Bear Leah Trail. Please contact me at(828)296-4683 if you have any questions or would like to discuss my observations of the downhole camera work.

NC 28790 Kent Mottinger 38 Bear Leah Trail Arden, NC 28704 Re.: Analytical Results for Private Supply Wells 38 and 40.Bear Leah Trail,Arden Buncombe County, NC Dear Mr.Mottinger, Please find attached the analytical results for water samples,collected on February 6, 2014,from the wells located at the above referenced addresses. The samples were analyzed by the Division of Water Resources (Division)for total metals,dissolved metals,chloride,sulfate,fluoride,boron,nutrients(40 Bear Leah Trail only),alkalinity, bicarbonate,total dissolved solids, and total and fecal coliform bacteria._In addition, thallium was analyzed by Pace Laboratories,a contract laboratory. Duke Energy Progress' (Duke) contractor Synterra also collected water samples at the two wells on February 6th and analyzed them independently. In addition,Synterra's subcontractor EGIS, PA, used a downhole camera to observe the integrity of the well casing,fracture locations,and other aspects of both wells and their construction. The work conducted on February 6th is part of a continuing investigation of potential coal ash constituents in groundwater in your area. 38 Bear Leah Trail Samples were collected at the well head using a peristaltic pump from a depth of 56 ft below the top of well casing,corresponding to the depth of an observed, producing(in-flowing)fracture set. Water in the well was cloudy and contained evidence of iron flocculant/iron bacteria. All sampled constituents were below the North Carolina Administrative Code(NCAC)Title 15A 2L.0202 groundwater standards(2L standards)with the exception of iron (21-standard of 300 ug/L)and manganese (2L standard of 50 ug/L). Total iron was 33,000 ug/L,and dissolved iron was 18,000 ug/L. Total and dissolved manganese were both 780 ug/L. Based on the concentrations of iron and manganese detected in the water sample, I requested that a Health Risk Evaluation (HRE) of the water supply be performed by a toxicologist with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services(DHHS).The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless you install a water treatment system to remove the iron. It is my understanding that you already have a treatment system installed to remove iron. if you would like to have the water inside your home tested post-treatment, please let me know. In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding the HRE, please contact Dr. Rudo at(919)707-5911. An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer—Made in part by recycled paper Mr. Kent Mottidger March 27,2014 Page 2 of 2 40 Bear Leah Trail Samples were collected at the well head using a peristaltic pump from a depth of 15 ft below the top of the well casing. This depth was chosen because down-hole camera observations revealed that the bulk of groundwater flow into the well is occurring at the leaky interface between the well casing and bedrock, 11 feet below the top of well casing. Because your well's casing is not seated in bedrock enough to preclude the inflow of shallow groundwater(groundwater not from bedrock),the water in your well is being drawn primarily from shallow groundwater moving through surface soils near the well head. Dog waste and other pollutants present on the land surface are a potential source of contamination to your well. It is recommended that you consult with a certified well driller and (or)water treatment specialist to discuss options for repair(e.g., installation of a liner),replacement,or water treatment. All constituents tested were below the 2L standards with the exception of total coliform bacteria (21- standard of 1 colony forming unit(CFU)per 100 mL)which was 600 CFU/100 mL. The presence of total coliform suggests the potential presence of harmful pathogens and is likely due,at least in part,to the leaky well casing discussed above. Based on the presence of total coliform in the water sample, I requested that an HRE be performed by DHHS for this water supply. The HRE,which is attached, recommends the water not be used for drinking or cooking unless it is first boiled for 3 minutes. Also,if you would like to use the well water for drinking or cooking purposes in the future, it is strongly recommended that you chlorinate and re-test the well prior to its continued use. Note that the sample named 1C11BIind1 on the Pace Laboratories thallium results is a duplicate sample collected at 40 Bear Leah Trail. These data and recommendations for 40 Bear Leah Trail have also been provided to limi Mottinger. Please contact me at(828)296-4683 if you have any questions or would like to discuss my observations of the downhole camera work.

The program appeared to be well run, likewise there is a system to document all activities associated with a collection system program. However, it was difficult to pull all of the records together because certain aspects of the programs are performed and documented by the maintenance staff of Linville Land Harbor. It may be beneficial if a working map of the collection system is used annually or biannually to highlight areas of cleaning, repairs, I&I inspections etc. Question Abbreviations: NA Not Applicable NE Not Evaluated Page: 2 - Permit: WQCS00255 Owner-Facility: Linville Land Harbor Prop Owners Assoc Inspection Date: 03/11/2014 Inspection Type: Collection System Inspect Non Sampling Reason for Visit: Routine Performance Standards Yes No NA NE Is Public Education Program for grease established and documented? 0 0 n n What educational tools are used?

I met with new owners Stewart and Martha Gray.We discussed operation and maintenance of this type of system. The new owners were given handouts with general information and operator contacts. They also inquired about disposal of bid chemicals. It appears Avery County has a chemical disposal day in August. Please call the local Cooperative Extension Service at 733-8270 for more information. The new owners stated they had mailed in the ownership change form to Raleigh at the beginning of February, however Raleigh staff could not locate the form. Please resend the form indicating the changes and permit number. See questions below for important information.
