WQROS REGIONAL STAFF REPORT
NCAC 02C .0225(e)(9),particularly with respect to MW-3 and TW-2.Based on the potentiometric surface m�
provided with the application,no monitoring points are located immediately downgradient of MW-3. MW-21-
94 is located down and side-gradient from MW-3. However, due to the heterogeneous nature of the fractured
bedrock aquifer,it is unclear whether this monitoring point can adequately assess the effect of the injections in
MW-3 and the applicant has provided no information to indicate a connection between these two wells. Similar
to MW-3,no monitoring points are located immediately downgradient from TW-2. MW-21-21 is located down
and side-gradient from TW-2.However,no information has been provided by the applicant to indicate MW-21-
21 will meet the requirements of.0225(e)(9)for TW-2.Additional monitoring points are needed downgradient
of MW-3 and TW-2 unless the applicant,through the communication of additional data(sampling results,
pumping test data,etc...), can demonstrate the minimum requirements of 02C .0225(e)(9)can be met. Based on
the information provided, semiannual sampling of MW-20-32 would address the monitoring concerns with
respect to TW-2.
Monitored Natural Attenuation(MNA)parameters should be added to the monitoring schedule for MW-19-75
to assess the effects of injection in TW-3 on the shallow bedrock aquifer.
Semiannual monitoring should also be conducted in MW-3 and DPL-2 to include MNA,Appendix I metals,
and Appendix R metals.As occurred in a previous pilot test,and is certainly possible with a new untested
injectant,unanticipated reactions, such as the mobilization of metals,are possible. If unanticipated reactions
occur,the injection points would be the first points to detect and mitigate those reactions.
7. Does the map presented represent the actual site(property lines,wells,surface drainage)?®Yes or❑No. If
no or no map,please attach a sketch of the site. Show property boundaries,buildings,wells,potential pollution
sources,roads,approximate scale,and north arrow.
Iniection Well Permit Renewal And Modification Only:
1. For heat pump systems,are there any abnormalities in heat pump or injection well operation(e.g.turbid water,
failure to assimilate injected fluid,poor heating/cooling)?
❑ Yes ❑No. If yes, explain:
2. For closed-loop heat pump systems,has system lost pressure or required make-up fluid since permit issuance
or last inspection?❑Yes ❑No. If yes, explain:
3. For renewal or modification of groundwater remediation permits(of any type),will
continued/additional/modified injections have an adverse impact on migration of the plume or management of
the contamination incident?❑ Yes ❑No. If yes, explain:

V. EVALUATIONAND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Provide any additional narrative regarding your review of the application: The French Broad River is directly
downgradient of the injection zone and the likely discharge point for groundwater.This office is concerned that
the proposed monitoring network is not adequate to detect the movement of the injection fluids and injection
byproducts,particularly incompletely degraded chlorinated ethenes and metals, into the French Broad River.
2. Attach Well Construction Data Sheet-if needed information is available
3. Do you foresee any problems with issuance/renewal of this permit? ® Yes ❑No. If yes,please explain
briefly. Proposed monitoring schedule is inadequate.
4. List any items that you would like APS Central Office to obtain through an additional information request.

Inspection Summary:
The new Director of Public Works and the public works staff are diligently operating and maintaining the collection system.
A CIP was completed in May 2012 and Public Works is using this to guide their repair and upgrade projects.The Town of
Waynesville,which may annex the collection system in the summer of 2016 pending political decisions and a popular
referendum,has also completed an engineering analysis of the Junaluska Assembly collection system focusing on the -
issues associated with potential annexation.
Junaluska Assembly Public Works has an excellent working relationship with Waynesville and can utilize their assistance
as needed.
Areas of continued improvement include the following:
1. Utilize the CIP map and any available information about the collection system (pipe age, materials etc.)as a tool to track
and guide maintenance efforts.
2. Continue to work on upgrading the work order tracking syste; include information on work orders relevant to SSOs.
3. Continue to improve record keeping for items including line cleaning and system inspections.
4. Complete repairs on the pump station audio/visual high level alarms.

On April 28th at approximately 12:20pm;Tim Heim and Jeff Menzel arrived at the subject location to
perform a routine Compliance Evaluation Inspection. The residence and surrounding property was well
maintained and mowed, but no components of the SFR wastewater treatment system as described in

appeared to be inadequately treated or raw effluent with visible solids was observed seeping into the
creek. The system appears to be noncompliant with the permit.

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. 143B-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 quality or on air quality;
(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 complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental
Management Commission has regulatory authority;and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty(30)days of receipt of this notice,you must do one of the following:
(1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR
(2) Submit a written request for remission, OR
(3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing-
Option 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:

Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such
.,ase 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 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 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

Dear Mr. Baird,
The Asheville Regional Office has reviewed the subject report which was received on March
2, 2015. The report was prepared by Bunnell-Lammons Engineering, Inc. (BLE) and
outlines activities associated with the annual groundwater monitoring at the subject site.
Despite significant declines in concentrations at some monitoring wells, contaminant
concentrations in excess of the applicable.North Carolina groundwater standards are still
present at the site. Therefore, annual monitoring should continue.
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at(828) 296-4681 or

Vehicle Wash Water Discharge
Buncombe County
Dear Mr.Jensen,
On April 21, 2015 I responded to a complaint alleging an illegal discharge of vehicle wash water from
your facility to a nearby stream.This letter is to follow up with you regarding my findings. I would like
to thank you for your assistance during the investigation.
You indicated that the vehicle/equipment wash water is settled in the first pit,gravity flows to the
second pit and then discharges through.a subsurface drain field. You also indicated that the water
draining to the stormwater pit on the south side of the facility is from the building gutters. I did not see
a direct discharge of vehicle wash water to the stream from your facility. However,the wash water from
the vehicle wash station is considered industrial process wastewater. Disposal of this type of
wastewater requires a permit.
There are several options available to you. They are as follows:
1) Subsurface disposal-Contact the Buncombe County Health Department, Division of
Environmental Health: Stan Crownover,Soil Scientist [e-mail]
This would likely be the least expensive option.
2) Non-Discharge permit through Division of Water Resources
Closed-Loop Recycle System—(15A NCAC 02T.1000)The permit application/information can be
found at the following address: http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/aps/lau/applications The
application is Form CLRS 11-13. You may be eligible for"deemed" permitted status under this
rule provided certain criteria are met. Please contact me for information.
3) Industrial wastewater pump and haul system—(15A NCAC 02T.0200&.0203) "Deemed Permit

You are required to provide the following:
1. Submit a notification to the Asheville Regional Office in writing advising of the type of

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

IL Failure to Secure a 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC)
A review of records confirmed that neither the DWR nor the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACOE)has received an application for a 404 Permit or 401 WQC,prior to the impacts
noted above. Such an application is required pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water
Act and Part 15A of North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0500.
REQUIRED RESPONSE
The DWR requests that you respond by June 8,2015. Your response should be sent to the-
attention of Zan Price,Division of Water Resources,2090 US HWY 70,Swannanoa,NC 28778
and should address the following items:
1. Removal of Best Usage—15A NCAC 02B.0211(2) and Failure to Secure a 401 Water
Quality Certification(WQC)
a. Please explain why these impacts occurred without prior authorization.
b. Please provide a map of the project area. The map must include all streams and
wetlands,detailing impacts both on-and off-site (i.e. culverts and/or stream
excavation)
c. Please provide a riparian vegetation plan to stabilize the streambanks where
excavation has occurred.
�i
Two (2) options exist to resolve the violations related to the 401 Water Quality
Certification:
1. Apply to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for and receive a 404 Permit pertaining
to the culvert installations (and other fill'impacts)that have occurred. A 401 WQC
will be required if the activities are permitted by the Corps. The application process
as described does not guarantee the impacts will be approved.
2. Restore the stream to pre-existing'conditions.
a. includes the removal of the culvert impacts,restoration of the stream
channel as well as:the restoration of the streambank and buffer along the
stream.
If pursuing Option 1:
1. Contact the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers to determine the permitting needs of
the activities you have undertaken:
2. Provide a proposed schedule of when you expect to have the required Pre-
Construction Notification(401 WQC application) submitted to DWR.

If pursuing Option 2:
Please submit a Stream Restoration Plan to this office for review and approval. You
must secure an environmental consultant experienced in stream restoration to assist you
with development of your plan and authorization necessary to achieve compliance.
The plan must include the removal of the culvert impacts, restoration of the stream
channel as well as the restoration of the streambank and buffer along the stream.
It is recommended that your consultant contact Mr.Zan Price of the Asheville Regional
Office for additional guidance during plan development. The plan should include the
proposed schedule with dates that indicate when you expect to begin and complete the
restoration work.
Once the plan has been implemented and is complete, a final report documenting
restoration of the stream should be submitted to Mr. Price
Thank you for your attention to this matter. This Office is considering sending a recommendation
for enforcement to the Director of the Division of Water Resources regarding these issues and any
future/continued violations that may be encountered. Your above-mentioned response to this
correspondence will be considered in this process. This office requires that the violations,as
detailed above, be abated immediately. These violations and any future violations are

Section D:Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
As noted in previous inspection reports,the mechanical bar screening unit has been out of service for
several years. It is recommended that this unit be replaced,or if possible, repaired and placed back in
service.The manual bar screen is allowing solids and.plastics to pass through which then make their
way to other treatment components.The Town should be aware that these materials can ruin pumps
and other equipment which may be more costly to replace when compared replacing/installing a
mechanical bar screen with better capabilities.
There were no violations of permitted monthly,weekly,or daily limits during the 2014 calendar year.
The assistance from the Town's staff along with their commitment to providing excellent operations
and maintenance is appreciated. No violations of permit requirements or applicable regulations were
observed during this inspection.

Mr. Marler was not aware of the SFR permit when he purchased the property, but he is knowledgeable
about the wastewater system and has been operating and maintaining it.The system appears to be
operating correctly and no impact to the receiving stream was observed.
Dechlorination tablets must be used for the system to operate properly.
The septic tank should be pumped out every five years or when the solids level is found to be more
than 1/3.of the liquid depth in any compartment, whichever is greater. Records of the septic tank
pumping events should be kept for future compliance inspections.

Mrs. Davis (Permitee)was not home at the time of the inspection, I spoke with her son Philip. He-
related that she is aware of the system location, components and purpose and is not experiencing any
problems with it. The yard and landscaping around the system are well maintained and accessible. I
was not able to open the chlorine contact chamber to observe if tablets were present. I inspected the
location of the effluent discharge pipe as indicated on the plans. I was not to`visualize the end of
the pipe due to vegetation,but the stream appeared free of adverse impacts. -
Chlorination tablets must be placed within the tubes for the system to effectively treat the wastewater
prior to discharge. Make sure the chlorination tablets are certified for wastewater use. Wastewater
tablets are not the same type as those used for swimming pools.

Subject: NOTICE OF VIOLATION/NOTICE OF INTENT TO ENFORCE
NOV-2015-DV-0106(Incident#201500668)
Horsehead Corporation
Rutherford County
Dear Mr.Staley:
Saturday,April 25,,2015, depleted aqueous electrolyte solution was released due to failure of an elevated process
.,feline at the site. Reportedly,the majority,ofthe release was contained onsite during recovery efforts; however,an
estimated 4000 gallons of this solution mixed with storm water reached a dirt road, approximately 100 feet to the north,
and an adjacent earthen drainage ditch.Solution reaching the earthen ditch was conveyed offsite to an unnamed,
intermittent stream leading to the Broad River. Based on an initial review of chemical information associated with the
depleted aqueous electrolyte solution, primary constituents of concern consist of metals,especially cadmium,lead,and
zinc.Additionally,the aqueous solution contained sulfuric acid with a pH range of 1 to 3 standard units.
Instream pH was monitored by the Division of Water Resources in both the unnamed tributary and the Broad river
upstream and downstream of-the spill.The unnamed tributary displayed low pH both upstream and downstream of the
spill.The Broad River pH was within normal ranges both upstream and down of the confluence with the unamed
tributary.Samples for the analyses of metals were not collected at the time of the spill response.
Violations
As a result of the above-referenced observations on April 25, 2015,the following violations are noted:
(1) illegal discharge
Violation I. Discharge Without a Valid Permit
G.S. 143-215.1 (a)states that no person shall do any of the following things or carry out any of the following,activities

the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are provided as applicable. Any
wastewater flow made tributary to the wastewater collection system extension prior to completion
of this Engineer's Certification shall be considered a violation of the permit and shall subject the
Permittee to appropriate enforcement actions.
If the permit is issued to a private entity with an Operational Agreement, then a copy of the
Articles of Incorporation, Declarations/Covenants/Restrictions, and Bylaws that have been
appropriately filed with the applicable County's Register of Deeds office shall be submitted with
the certification.
A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are
provided as applicable. Supporting documentation shall include the following:
a. One copy of the project construction record drawings (plan & profile views of sewer lines &
force mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Final record drawings should be
clear on the plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and are defined as the design drawings
that are marked up or annotated with after construction information and show required buffers,
separation distances, material changes, etc.
b. One copy of the supporting applicable design calculations including pipe and pump sizing,
velocity, pump cycle times, and level control settings, pump station buoyancy, wet well storage,
surge protection, detention time in the wet well, and force main, ability to flush low points in
force mains with a pump cycle, and downstream sewer capacity analysis. If a portable power
Page 6 of 9

source or pump is dedicated to multiple stations, an evaluation of all the pump stations' storage
capacities and the rotation schedule of the portable power source or pump, include travel
timeframes,shall be provided.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations,or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification
in the space provided,or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting
in non-compliance with this permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased
flow, pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and increases in the
number/type of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested
modifications or variances to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis
and each on its own merit. Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be
requested and approved during the permitting process prior to construction. After-construction
requests are discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or
repair prior to certification&activation. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]
8. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the
Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified
until corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined, a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation.
This shall be done through a permit modification with fee.. Such variance requests will be evaluated
on a case-by-case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and
submitting the construction certification. [ 15A NCAC 02T.0105(n)]
9. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life
of the wastewater collection facilities. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]
10. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the
Division's Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast-Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted
June 1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an
enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes§143-215.6A
through §143-215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities,
and/or referral of the North Carolina-licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board. [15A

11. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including
those as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement
facilities. [15A NCAC 02T.0110; 15A NCAC 02T.0108(b)]
12. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by the Division any other Federal, State, or
Local government agencies which have jurisdiction or obtaining other permits which maybe required
by the Division or any other Federal,State,of Local government agencies. [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]

"Keyhole Lane Fields"were contributing turbidity to the upper watershed of Knob Creek
and exceeding the stream standard of.10 NTU's.A follow up investigation on August 29,
2014 documented in-stream sediment, originating from these two fields, impacting
approximately 2,000 feet of four unnamed tributaries to Knob Creek and an indeterminate
length of Knob Creek.
The information provided in Mr. Clark's letter does not adequately address the required
response outlined in the Notice of Violation (NOV) dated September 16, 2014. The NOV
states that you are responsible for providing a stabilization plan and a sediment removal
plan to address on-going turbidity and sediment-loss issues associated with the"Leland
Moss Fields" and the "Keyhole Lane Fields".

Stream standard violations were noted during the inspection. Sediment and turbidity impacts to an,,, ,..
unnamed tributary to Tomahawk Branch and Tomahawk Branch,classified B waters, were
documented from the site downstream to Lake Tomahawk. In-stream turbidity levels at the Black
Mountain golf course(by green#14) and Laurel Circle Drive were 900 NTUs and 650 NTUs,
respectively. In-stream turbidity levels just upstream from the source at 27 Bethel Drive were 90
NTUs. The stream standard for turbidity in Tomahawk Branch is 50 NTUs.
DWR understands that the stream standard violations were caused by a 10-inch water line break at
the subject site on May 14,2015.
As a result of the site inspection and file review,the following violations were identified:

Subject: Wastewater Permitting Exemption
Carolina Bison
Buncombe County
Dear Mr. Ellington:
In response to our conversation earlier this week,the Division of Water Resources'(DWR)is
forwarding this letter that outlines the wastewater permitting requirements for your camel dairy
operation.
In accordance with Session Law 2011-41, which was effective as of April 19,2011, your
operation is exempt from wastewater permitting for the dairy operation provided that the
following conditions are met:
(1) The activities related to the processing of the agricultural products are carried out
by the owner of the agricultural products.
(2) The activities related to the processing of the agricultural products produce no
more than 1,000 gallons of wastewater per day.
(3) The wastewater is not generated by an animal waste management system as
defined in G.S. 143-215.1OB.
(4) The wastewater is disposed of by land application.
(5) No wastewater is discharged to surface waters.
(6) The disposal of the wastewater does not result in any.violation of surface water or
groundwater standards.
A copy of this law can be located at the link below:
http://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/201 I/Bills/House/PDF/H162v4 pddf
From our conversation, it appears that your operation will meet all of the above requirements.
As a result,no permit is needed for the dairy wastewater at your facility.
