Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s)

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

remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In

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 dote 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 Quality 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.

MEMORANDUM
To: Tracy A.Walter, Bridge Project Planning Engineer
Project Development and Environmental Analysis Branch
NC Department of Transportation
From: Michael R. Parker,NC Division of Water Quality, Asheville Regional Office
Subject: Scoping comments on proposed replacement of Bridge No. 138,NCSR 1151 in Madison
County, Federal Aid Project No. BRSTP 1151(6), WBS Element No. 40165.1.1,
TIP Project No. B-4984
This office has reviewed the correspondence dated October 29, 2008 in which you requested comments
for the referenced project. The Division of Water Quality(DWQ) is responsible for the issuance of the
Section 401 Water Quality Certification for activities that impact Waters of the U.S., including wetlands.
Based on a preliminary review of the project study area,tributaries, wetlands and riparian buffers
associated with the following named stream(s)that could be impacted by the proposed project:
Stream Name River Basin Stream Stream Index
Classification(s) Number
Big Pine Creek French Broad C 6-108
DWQ has the following comments:
Project Specific Comments:
1. Big Pine Creek is classified as C waters of the State but the NCWRC classifies Big Pine Creek as
trout waters. DWQ recommends that the most protective sediment and erosion control BMPs be
implemented to reduce the risk of turbidity violations in trout waters.
2. All appropriated work moratoria shall be followed in accordance with NCWRC recommendations
for the Big Pine Creek.
3. Any anticipated dewatering or access structures necessary for construction of bridges should be
addressed in the CE. It is understood that final designs are not determined at the time the CE is
developed. However,the CE should discuss the potential for dewatering and access measures
necessary due to bridge construction.
4. Any anticipated bank stabilization associated with bridge construction should be addressed in the
CE. It is understood that final designs are not determined at the time the CE is developed.
However,the CE should discuss the potential for bank stabilization necessary due to bridge
construction. One

5. Japanese Knot Weed(JKW) is located in close proximity(upstream and downstream)to the
existing bridge. It is recommended that DOT try to remove this very invasive plant from the
stream banks where construction will take place. It is suggested that the JKW be sprayed
with herbicide in the spring and cut in the fall. The cuttings should be burned or buried under at
least six(6)feet of fill material. For construction sites it is suggested that the JKW be dug out of
the ground,removing most of the root ball as possible, and burying the JKW under at least six(6)
feet of fill.
General Comments Regarding Bridge Replacement Projects;
6. The environmental document shall provide a detailed and itemized presentation of the proposed
impacts to wetlands and streams with corresponding mapping. If mitigation is necessary as
required by 15A NCAC 21-1.0506(h), it is preferable to present a conceptual (if not finalized)
mitigation plan with the environmental documentation. Appropriate mitigation plans will be
required prior to issuance of a 401 Water Quality Certification.
7. Environmental assessment alternatives shall consider design criteria that reduce the impacts to
streams and wetlands from storm water runoff. These alternatives shall include road designs that
allow for treatment of the storm water runoff through best management practices as detailed in
the most recent version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices, such as grassed
swales,buffer areas, preformed scour holes, retention basins,etc.
8. After the selection of the preferred alternative and prior to an issuance of the 401 Water Quality
Certification,the NCDOT is respectfully reminded that they will need to demonstrate the
avoidance and minimization of impacts to wetlands(and streams)to the maximum extent
practical. In accordance with the Environmental Management Commission's Rules {I 5A NCAC
2H.0506(h)}, mitigation will be required for impacts of greater than 1 acre to wetlands. In the
event that mitigation is required,the mitigation plan shall be designed to replace appropriate lost
functions and values. The NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program may be available for use as
wetland mitigation.
9. In accordance with the Environmental Management Commission's Rules {15A NCAC
2H.0506(h)},mitigation will be required for impacts of greater than 150 linear feet to any single
perennial stream. In the event that mitigation is required,the mitigation plan shall be designed to
replace appropriate lost functions and values. The NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program may be
available for use as stream mitigation.
10. DWQ is very concerned with sediment and erosion impacts that could result from this project.
NC DOT shall address these concerns by describing the potential impacts that may occur to the
aquatic environments and any mitigating factors that would reduce the impacts.
11. If a bridge is being replaced with a hydraulic conveyance other than another bridge, DWQ
believes the use of a Nationwide Permit may be required. Please contact the US Army Corp of
Engineers to determine the required permit(s).
12. If the old bridge is removed, no discharge of bridge material into surface waters is allowed unless
otherwise authorized by the US ACOE. Strict adherence to the Corps of Engineers guidelines for
bridge demolition will be a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification.

,-,-4984
December 2, 2008
Page 3
13. Bridge supports (bents)shall not be placed in the stream when possible.
14. Whenever possible,the DWQ prefers spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not
require work within the stream or grubbing of the streambanks and do not require stream channel
realignment. The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges should allow for human
and wildlife passage beneath the structure, do not block fish passage and do not block navigation
by canoeists and boaters.
15. Bridge deck drains shall not discharge directly into the stream. Stormwater shall be directed
across the bridge and pre-treated through site-appropriate means(grassed swales, pre-formed
scour holes, vegetated buffers, etc.)before entering the stream. Please refer to the most current
version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices.
16. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct
contact between curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured
concrete shall not be discharged to surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and
possible aquatic life and fish kills.
17. If temporary access roads or detours are constructed,the site shall be graded to its preconstruction
contours and elevations. Disturbed areas shall be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and
appropriate native woody species should be planted. When using temporary structures the area
shall be cleared but not grubbed. Clearing the area with chain saws, mowers, bush-hogs, or other
mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact allows the area to re-vegetate
naturally and minimizes soil disturbance.
18. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be below the
elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and
20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches,to allow low
flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures
including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result
in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream
of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock
or other limiting features encountered during construction,please contact the NC DWQ for
guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be
required.
19. If multiple pipes or barrels are required,they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross
section as closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where
appropriate. Widening the stream channel shall be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet
or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that
requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
20. If foundation test borings are necessary; it should be noted in the document. Geotechnical work
is approved under General 401 Certification Number 3624/Nationwide Permit No. 6 for Survey
Activities.
21. Sediment and erosion control measures sufficient to protect water resources must be implemented
and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of North Carolina Sediment and
Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual and the most recent version of NCS000250.

B-4984
December 2, 2008
Page 4
22. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area unless otherwise
approved by NC DWQ. Approved BMP measures from the most current version of NCDOT
Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags,rock berms; cofferdams and
other diversion structures should be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
23. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands and streams.
24. Borrow/waste areas shall avoid wetlands to the maximum extent practical. Impacts to wetlands
in borrow/waste areas could precipitate compensatory mitigation.
25. While the use of National Wetland Inventory(NWI) leaps,NC Coastal Region Evaluation of
Wetland Significance(NC-CREWS)maps and soil survey maps are useful tools,their inherent
inaccuracies require that qualified personnel perform onsite wetland delineations prior to permit
approval.
26. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams.
This equipment shall be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface
waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials.
27. In most cases,the DWQ prefers the replacement of the existing structure at the same location
with road closure. If road closure is not feasible, a temporary detour should be designed and
located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing
stream banks. If the structure will be on a new alignment,the old structure shall be removed and
the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplain. Approach fills should be removed and
restored to the natural ground elevation. The area shall be stabilized with grass and planted with
native tree species. Tall fescue shall not be used in riparian areas.
28. Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner
that precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly
designed, sized and installed.
29. Riparian vegetation(native trees and shrubs) shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible.
Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end
of the growing season following completion of construction.
Thank you for requesting our input at this time. The DOT is reminded that issuance of a 401 Water
Quality Certification requires that appropriate measures be instituted to ensure that water quality
standards are met and designated uses are not degraded or lost. If you have any questions or require
additional information, please contact Mike Parker at(828) 296-4500.

From: Michael R. Parker, C Division of Water Quality, Asheville Regional Office
Subject: Scoping comments on proposed replacement of Bridge No. 227 over Reems Creek,NCSR 2105
in Buncombe County, Federal Aid Project No. BRZ-2105(1), Project No. 333703.1.1,
TIP Project No. B-4446
This office has reviewed the correspondence dated November 7, 2008 in which you requested comments
for the referenced project. As a note there were no environmental commitments attached to the
memorandum. The Division of Water Quality(DWQ) is responsible for the issuance of the Section 401
Water Quality Certification for activities that impact Waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Based on a
preliminary review of the project study area,tributaries,wetlands and riparian buffers associated with the
following named stream(s)that could be impacted by the proposed project:
Stream Name River Basin Stream Stream Index
Classifications Number
Reems Creek French Broad C-trout 6-87-(1)
DWQ has the following comments:
Project Specific Comments:
1. Reems Creek is classified as C-trout waters of the State. DWQ recommends that the most
protective sediment and erosion control BMPs be implemented to reduce the risk of turbidity
violations in trout waters.
2. All appropriated work moratoria shall be followed in accordance with NCWRC recommendations
for the Reems Creek.
3. Any anticipated dewatering or access structures necessary for construction of bridges should be
addressed in the CE. 1t is understood that final designs are not determined at the time the CE is
developed. However,the CE should discuss the potential for dewatering and access measures
necessary due to bridge construction. one

4. Any anticipated bank stabilization associated with bridge construction should be addressed in the
CE. It is understood that final designs are not determined at the time the CE is developed.
However,the CE should discuss the potential for bank stabilization necessary due to bridge
construction.
General Comments Regarding Bridge Replacement Projects:
5. The environmental document shall provide a detailed and itemized presentation of the proposed
impacts to wetlands and streams with corresponding mapping. If mitigation is necessary as
required by 1 SA NCAC 2H.0506(h), it is preferable to present a conceptual (if not finalized)
mitigation plan with the environmental documentation. Appropriate mitigation plans will be
required prior to issuance of a 401 Water Quality Certification.
6. Environmental assessment alternatives shall consider design criteria that reduce the impacts to
streams.and wetlands from storm water runoff. These alternatives shall include road designs that
allow for treatment of the storm water runoff through best management practices as detailed in
the most recent version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices, such as grassed
swales, buffer areas, preformed scour holes,retention basins, etc.
7. After the selection of the preferred alternative and prior to an issuance of the 401 Water Quality
Certification, the NCDOT is respectfully reminded that they will need to demonstrate the
avoidance and minimization of impacts to wetlands(and streams)to the maximum extent
practical. In accordance with the Environmental Management Commission's Rules {I 5A NCAC
2H.0506(h)), mitigation will be required for impacts of greater than 1 acre to wetlands. In thei
event that mitigation is required,the mitigation plan shall be designed to replace appropriate lost
functions and values. The NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program may be available for use as
wetland mitigation.
8. In accordance with the Environmental Management Commission's Rules (I 5A NCAC
2H.0506(h)),mitigation will be required for impacts of greater than 150 linear feet to any single
perennial stream. In the event that mitigation is required,the mitigation plan shall be designed to
replace appropriate lost functions and values. The NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program may be
available for use as stream mitigation.
9. DWQ is very concerned with sediment and erosion impacts that could result from this project.
NC DOT shall address these concerns by describing the potential impacts that may occur to the
aquatic environments and any mitigating factors that would reduce the impacts.
10. If a bridge is being replaced with a hydraulic conveyance other than another bridge, DWQ
believes the use of a Nationwide Permit may be required. Please contact the US Army Corp of
Engineers to determine the required permit(s).
11. If the old bridge is removed, no discharge of bridge material into surface waters is allowed unless
otherwise authorized by the US ACOE. Strict adherence to the Corps of Engineers guidelines for
bridge demolition will be a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification.
12. Bridge supports(bents) shall not be placed in the stream when possible.

J-4446
December 4, 2008
Page 3
13. Whenever possible,the DWQ prefers spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not
require work within the stream or grubbing of the streambanks and do not require stream channel
realignment. The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges should allow for human
and wildlife passage beneath the structure, do not block fish passage and do not block navigation
by canoeists and boaters.
14. Bridge deck drains shall not discharge directly into the stream. Stormwater shall be directed
across the bridge and pre-treated through site-appropriate means(grassed swales, pre-formed
scour holes,vegetated buffers, etc.)before entering the stream. Please refer to the most current
version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices.
15. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct
contact between curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured
concrete shall not be discharged to surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and
possible aquatic life and fish kills.
16. If temporary access roads or detours are constructed, the site shall be graded to its preconstruction
contours and elevations. Disturbed areas shall be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and
appropriate native woody species should be planted. When using temporary structures the area
shall be cleared but not grubbed. Clearing the area with chain saws, mowers, bush-hogs, or other
mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact allows the area to re-vegetate
naturally and minimizes soil disturbance.
17. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be below the
elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and
20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches,to allow low
flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures
including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result
in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream
of the-above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock
or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for
guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be
required.
18. If multiple pipes or barrels are required,they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross
section as closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where
appropriate. Widening the stream channel shall be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet
or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that
requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
19. If foundation test borings are necessary; it should be noted in the document. Geotechnical work
is approved under General 401 Certification Number 3624/Nationwide Permit No. 6 for Survey
Activities.
20. Sediment and erosion control measures sufficient to protect water resources must be implemented
and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of North Carolina Sediment and
Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual and the most recent version of NCS000250.

B-4446
December 4, 2008
Page 4
21. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area unless otherwise
approved by NC DWQ. Approved BMP measures from the most current version of NCDOT
Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms; cofferdams and
other diversion structures should be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
22. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands and streams.
23. Borrow/waste areas shall avoid wetlands to the maximum extent practical. Impacts to wetlands
in borrow/waste areas could precipitate compensatory mitigation.
24. While the use of National Wetland Inventory(NWI)maps,NC Coastal Region Evaluation of
Wetland Significance(NC-CREWS)maps and soil survey maps are useful tools,their inherent
inaccuracies require that qualified personnel perform onsite wetland delineations prior to permit
approval.
25. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams.
This equipment shall be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface
waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids,or other toxic materials.
26. In most cases,the DWQ prefers the replacement of the existing structure at the same location
with road closure. If road closure is not feasible, a temporary detour should be designed and
located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing
stream banks. If the structure will be on a new alignment,the old structure shall be removed and
the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplain. Approach fills should be removed and
restored to the natural ground elevation. The area shall be stabilized with grass and planted with
native tree species. Tall fescue shall not be used in riparian areas.
27. Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner
that precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly
designed, sized and installed.
28. Riparian vegetation(native trees and shrubs) shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible.
Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end
of the growing season following completion of construction.
Thank you for requesting our input at this time. The DOT is reminded that issuance of a 401 Water
Quality Certification requires that appropriate measures be instituted to ensure that water quality
standards are met and designated uses are not degraded or lost. If you have any questions or require
additional information, please contact Mike Parker at(828) 296-4500.

of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock
or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for
guidance on how to proceed and to detennine whether or not a permit modification will be
required.
18. If multiple pipes or barrels are required,they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross
section as closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where
appropriate. Widening the stream channel shall be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet
or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that
requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
19. If foundation test borings are necessary; it should be noted in the document. Geotechnical work
is approved under General 401 Certification Number 3624/Nationwide Permit No. 6 for Survey
Activities.
20. Sediment and erosion control measures sufficient to protect water resources must be implemented
and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of North Carolina Sediment and
Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual and the most recent version of NCS000250.

B-4446
December 4, 2008

21. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area unless otherwise
approved by NC DWQ. Approved BMP measures from the most current version of NCDOT
Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms; cofferdams and
other diversion structures should be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
22. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands and streams.
23. Borrow/waste areas shall avoid wetlands to the maximum extent practical. Impacts to wetlands
in borrow/waste areas could precipitate compensatory mitigation.
24. While the use of National Wetland Inventory(NWI)maps,NC Coastal Region Evaluation of
Wetland Significance(NC-CREWS)maps and soil survey maps are useful tools,their inherent
inaccuracies require that qualified personnel perform onsite wetland delineations prior to permit
approval.
25. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams.
This equipment shall be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface
waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids,or other toxic materials.
26. In most cases,the DWQ prefers the replacement of the existing structure at the same location
with road closure. If road closure is not feasible, a temporary detour should be designed and
located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing
stream banks. If the structure will be on a new alignment,the old structure shall be removed and
the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplain. Approach fills should be removed and
restored to the natural ground elevation. The area shall be stabilized with grass and planted with
native tree species. Tall fescue shall not be used in riparian areas.
27. Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner
that precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly
designed, sized and installed.
28. Riparian vegetation (native trees and shrubs) shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible.
Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end
of the growing season following completion of construction.
Thank you for requesting our input at this time. The DOT is reminded that issuance of a 401 Water
Quality Certification requires that appropriate measures be instituted to ensure that water quality
standards are met and designated uses are not degraded or lost. If you have any questions or require
additional information, please contact Mike Parker at(828)296-4500.

Inspection Summary:
DWQ staff was met on site by Angela Marisco and Kevin Fore. A tour was conducted of the exterior of the facility,
observing the stormwater conveyances and outfalls and site conditions. During the visit,the SPPP manual was reviewed,
operational activities and existing stormwater exposures were discussed. Permit requirements were also reviewed
pertaining to the most recent permit version as well as anticipated changes within an updated version. At the time of the
inspection the site was found to be in compliance with the permit. The inspector noted that the facility appears to maintain
good housekeeping practices and records were found to be in good order.
The inspector observed that if rod storage was carried out under-roof and dumpsters were sheltered from the weather, an
opportunity might exist to receive a No Exposure Certification for the facility.

To: Mr. Charles Hansen, PE
Public Services Director
City of Hickory
Ms.Michelle Peele
The Louis Berger Group, Inc.
From: Michael R. ParkKrC Division of Water Quality, Asheville Regional Office
Subject: Scoping comments on proposed321 Connector Road,City of Hickory, Caldwell County
This office has reviewed the correspondence dated November 17, 2008 in which you requested comments
for the referenced project. The Division of Water Quality(DWQ) is responsible for the issuance of the
Section 401 Water Quality Certification for activities that impact Waters of the U.S., including wetlands.
Based on a preliminary review of the project study area,tributaries,wetlands and riparian buffers
associated with the following named stream(s)that could be impacted by the proposed project:
Stream Name River Basin Stream Stream Index
Classifications Number
Gunpowder Creek Catawba WS-IV-CA 11-55-(4)
DWQ has the following comments:
Project Specific Comments:
1. Gunpowder Creek and associated unnamed tributaries are classified as WS-N-CA waters of the
State. DWQ recommends that the City of Hickory use the Design Standards in Sensitive
Watersheds [15A NCAC 4B .0124(a)-(e)] for sediment and erosion control because of the area
being within the water supply Critical Area(CA).
2. All appropriate work moratoria shall be followed in accordance with NCWRC recommendations
for Gunpowder Creek, associated unnamed tributaries and Lake Hickory,
3. Any anticipated dewatering or access structures necessary for construction of bridges should be
addressed in the 401 Water Quality Certification Application. The application should discuss the
potential for dewatering and access measures necessary for construction.
4. Any anticipated bank stabilization associated with the road construction should be addressed in
the 401 Water.Quality Certification Application.

5. The City of Hickory may be required to design, construct and maintain hazardous spill catch
basins in the project area if this area is determined to be a high truck traffic connector. The
number of catch basins installed shall be determined by the design of the stream crossings, so that
runoff would enter said basin(s) rather than flowing directly into surface waters, and consultation
with the Division of Water Quality.
General Comments:
6. The City of Hickory shall provide a detailed and itemized presentation of the proposed impacts to
wetlands and streams with corresponding mapping. If mitigation is necessary as required by 15A
NCAC 2H.0506(h), it is preferable to present a conceptual(if not finalized) mitigation plan with
the environmental documentation. Appropriate mitigation plans will be required prior to issuance
of a 401 Water Quality Certification.
7. The 401 Water Quality Certification Application will need to specifically address the proposed
methods for Stormwater Management. More specificallystormwater shall not be permitted to
discharge directly into streams or surface waters.
8. Please be advised that a 401 Water Quality Certification requires satisfactory protection of water
quality to ensure that water quality standards are met and no wetland or stream uses are lost.
Final permit authorization will require the submittal of a formal application by the City of
Hickory and written concurrence from the NC Division of Water Quality. Please be aware that
any approval will be contingent on appropriate avoidance and minimization of wetland and
stream impacts to the maximum practical,the development of an acceptable Stormwater
management plan and the inclusion of appropriate mitigation plans where appropriate.
9. The City of Hickory is respectfully reminded that all impacts, 'including but not limited to,
bridging, fill, excavation and clearing,to jurisdictional wetlands, streams and riparian buffers
need to be included in the final impact calculations. These impacts, in addition to any
construction impacts,temporary or otherwise, also need to be included as part of the 401 Water
Quality Certification Application.
10. An analysis of cumulative and secondary impacts anticipated as a result of this project is required.
The type and detail of analysis shall conform to the NC Division of Water Quality Policy on the
assessment of secondary and cumulative impacts dated April 10, 2004.
11. Environmental assessment alternatives shall consider design criteria that reduce the impacts to
streams and wetlands from storm water runoff. These alternatives shall include road designs that
allow for treatment of the storm water runoff through best management practices as detailed in
the most recent version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices, such as grassed
swales,buffer areas, preformed scour holes, retention basins, etc.
12. Prior to an issuance of the 401 Water Quality Certification,the City of Hickory is respectfully
reminded that they will need to demonstrate the avoidance and minimization of impacts to
wetlands(and streams)to the maximum extent practical. In accordance with the Environmental
Management Commission's Rules (I 5A NCAC 2H.0506(h)), mitigation will be required for
impacts of greater than 1 acre to wetlands. In the event that mitigation is required,the mitigation
plan shall be designed to replace appropriate lost functions and values. The NC Ecosystem
Enhancement Program may be available for use as wetland mitigation.

13. In accordance with the Environmental Management Commission's Rules{I 5A NCAC
2H.0506(h)), mitigation will be required for impacts of greater than 150 linear feet to any single
perennial stream. In the event that mitigation is required,the mitigation plan shall be designed to
replace appropriate lost functions and values. The NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program may be
available for use as stream mitigation.
14. DWQ is very concerned with sediment and erosion impacts that could result from this project.
The City of Hickory shall address these concerns by describing the potential impacts that may
occur to the aquatic environments and any mitigating factors that would reduce the impacts.
15. Based on preliminary discussions, DWQ believes the use of a Nationwide Permit may be
required. Please contact the US Army Corp of Engineers to determine the required permit(s).
16. Where streams must be crossed,the DWQ prefers bridges be used in lieu of culverts. However,
we realize that economic considerations often require the use of culverts. Please be advised that
culverts should be countersunk to allow unimpeded passage by fish and other aquatic organisms.
Moreover, in areas where high quality wetlands or streams are impacted, a bridge may prove
preferable. When applicable,the City of Hickory should not install bridge bents in streams to the
maximum extent practicable.
17. Whenever possible,the DWQ prefers spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not
require work within the stream or grubbing of the streambanks and do not require stream channel
realignment. The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges should allow for human
and wildlife passage beneath the structure, do not block fish passage and do not block navigation
by canoeists and boaters.
18. If a bridge is being planned,DWQ believes the use of a Nationwide Permit may be required.
Please contact the US Army Corp of Engineers to determine the required permit(s).
19. Any bridge supports(bents) shall not be placed in the stream when possible.
20. Bridge deck drains shall not discharge directly into the stream. Stormwater shall be directed
across the bridge and pre-treated through site-appropriate means(grassed swales,pre-formed
scour holes,vegetated buffers,etc.)before entering the stream. Please refer to the most current
version of NC DWQ Stormwater Best Management Practices.
21. If concrete is used during construction,a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct
contact between curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured
concrete shall not be discharged to surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and
possible aquatic life and fish kills.
22. If temporary access roads or detours are constructed,the site shall be graded to its preconstruction
contours and elevations. Disturbed areas shall be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and
appropriate native woody species should be planted. When using temporary structures the area
shall be cleared but not grubbed. Clearing the area with chain saws,mowers, bush-hogs, or other
mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact allows the area to re-vegetate
'� naturally and minimizes soil disturbance.

Mr. Charles Hansen, PE
December 10, 2008

23. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be below the
elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches,and
20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow low
flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures
including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result
in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and downstream
of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock
or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for
guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be
required.
24. If multiple pipes or barrels are required,they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross
section as closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where
appropriate. Widening the stream channel shall be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet
or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that
requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
25. If foundation test borings are necessary; it should be noted in the document. Geotechnical work
is approved under General 401 Certification Number 3624/Nationwide Permit No. 6 for Survey
Activities.
M. Sediment and erosion control measures sufficient to protect water resources must be implemented
and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of North Carolina Sediment and
Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual and the most recent version of NCS000250.
27. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area unless otherwise
approved by NC DWQ. Approved BMP measures from the most current version of NCDOT
Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms; cofferdams and
other diversion structures should be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
28. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands and streams.
29. Borrow/waste areas shall avoid wetlands to the maximum extent practical. Impacts to wetlands
in borrow/waste areas could precipitate compensatory mitigation.
30. While the use of National Wetland Inventory(NWI) maps,NC Coastal Region Evaluation of
Wetland Significance(NC-CREWS) maps and soil survey maps are useful tools,their inherent
inaccuracies require that qualified personnel perform onsite wetland delineations prior to permit
approval.
31. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams.
This equipment shall be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface
waters from leaking fuels,lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials.

Charles Hansen, PE
Jecember 10,2008

32, Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner
_ that precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly
designed, sized and installed.
33. Riparian vegetation (native trees and shrubs) shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible.
Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end
of the growing season following completion of construction.
The NCDWQ appreciates the opportunity to provide comments on your project. Should you have any
questions or require additional information,please contact Mike Parker at(828)296-4500.

Case No. CV-2008-0012
Madison County
Dear Mr. Norton:
This letter transmits a notice of a civil penalty assessed against the Town of Hot Springs in the
amount of$8,1.36.19 which includes $1.36.19 in investigative costs. The assessment document
explaining this penalty is attached.
This action was taken under the authority vested in me by delegation provided by the Secretary of
the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water
Quality. Any continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new enforcement action, including-an
additional penalty.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following three items:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new
violation(s). Do not include the attached waiver form if making payment.
Please send payment to the attention of:

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 Quality 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 Quality 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 Quality also requests that
you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should
be submitted to the following address:

I. FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. The Town of Hot Springs is located in Madison County,North Carolina.
- B. On October 22, 2008, Roy Davis with the DWQ staff from the Asheville
Regional Office (ARO) conducted a Collection System Compliance Evaluation
Inspection at the Town of Hot Springs, Mr. Davis observed two sewage pumping
stations under construction and the site for a third. One station was to replace the
old Silver Mine pump station. The South Spring Street pump station, observed
under construction, is to replace an aerial crossing. When completed the additions to
the Town's sewer system would consist of three pump stations, 24 liner feet of 8-
inch diameter gravity sewer, and 531 linear feet of 4-inch diameter force main.
C. The Town of Hot Springs has no valid permit for the above-mentioned Pump
Stations.
D. On October 29, 2008 a Notice of Violation was sent to the Town of Hot Springs
regarding this matter. Receipt of said Notice was acknowledged on November 5,
2008. A written response to the Notice of Violation was received on November 20,
2008.
E. The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled
$ 136.19.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following:

B. The sewer system cited in finding of Fact I.B. above falls within the definition of
same at G.S. 143-213 (15).
C. A permit is required for the construction of a sewer system pursuant to G.S. 143-
215.1 (a) (2). In May of 2008 the Town of Hot Springs submitted a Fast-Track
Application seeking permission to construct and operate three sewage pumping
stations. On May 21, 2008 the Application was returned for a variety of reasons.
Brian L. Tripp, PE, engineer to the Town for this project received a copy of the
cover letter. The corrected Application was not returned until after the Town was
sent a NOV.
D. The Town of Hot Springs may be assessed civil penalties in this matter-pursuant to
G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), which provides that a civil penalty of not more than twenty-
five thousand dollars ($25,000.00)per violation.may be assessed against a person
who is required but fails to apply for or to secure a permit required by G.S. 143-
215.1.
E. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed against the Town of
Hot Springs pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 14313-282.1(b)(8).
F. Acting pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water
Quality, Roger C.�`Edwards, Regional Supervisor of the Asheville Regional Office,
Surface Water Protection Section of the Division of Water Quality has the authority
to assess civil penalties in this matter.

As required by G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty J have
considered the factors listed in 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;

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

_ng and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please
epare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality 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 Quality 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 Quality also requests that

Dear Mr. Boyette:
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in the amount of
$1,301.00 ($1,250.00 civil penalty+$51.00 enforcement costs) against City of Marion.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been conducted of the discharge
monitoring report (DMR) submitted by City of Marion for the month of August 2008. This review
has shown the subject facility to be in violation of the discharge limitations and/or monitoring
requirements found in NPDES Permit NC0031879. The violations which occurred in August 2008
are summarized in Attachment A to this letter.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that City of Marion violated the terms,
conditions or requirements of NPDES Permit NCO031879 and G.S. 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner
and extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the maximums established by G.S. 143-
215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty may be assessed against any person who violates the terms,
conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1(a).
Based upon the above findings 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 Quality, I, Roger C Edwards, Division of Water Quality
Regional Supervisor for the Asheville Region, hereby make the following civil penalty assessment

$1,301.00 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. 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 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 Quality
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

re a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be
Aitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality 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 Quality 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

SUBJECT: 24-Hr. Variance Request
Valdese Lake Rhodhiss WWTP
NPDES Permit Number NCO041696
Burke County
Dear Mr. Padgett,
The Asheville Regional Office, Division of Water Quality, Surface Water Protection
Unit is in receipt of your request for a variance from 15A NCAC 02H .0124(4). This
regulation requires: all facilities to provide adequate reliability measures, which insure
continued treatment and disinfection where the interruption of such treatment would
render the waters unsafe for their best intended uses. The reliability measures shall
include the following: For mechanical facilities with a design capacity equal to or greater
than 5.0 mgd continuous operation, 24 hours, seven days per week; with each shift
staffed by at least one certified wastewater operator shall be provided on or before
October 1, 1993 unless the applicant can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Director
that this requirement is unwarranted for a particular case.
Your request states that your facility has SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition); stand-by power, and individuals (operators) who serve an on-call basis with
emergency communication equipment, and can respond to emergency situations that
may occur in no more than 30 minutes. These personnel also work a scheduled 8-hour
day. This office strongly suggests that the facility split this shift. For example, have one
staff person come in at 5 am or earlier, and another come in at 9 or 10 am, to work 8
hours, to insure coverage of the facility for at least 12 hours per day. The facility is also
required to run "mock" test of Emergency Response procedures, equipment, test staff in
ER for the facility, and to keep records of this fact, which shall be submitted annually to
the Asheville Regional Office. The facility will also be required to submit annual updates
of this variance in with the submittal of the WWTP's annual report required by permit
NC0041696.
This variance is approved, contingent upon implementation of the Lake Rhodhiss
WWTP Emergency Response plan. Also, please take note that this approval is not a
i defense for non-compliance from any other condition(s), limit(s), or any other
requirements in NPDES permit NC0041696, and can be rescinded at any time, thereby
requiring implementation of the 24 hour continuous staffing`regulation.

Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Permit No. WQCS00103
Wastewater Collection System
Cherokee County
Dear Mr. Green:
Attached is the report resulting from the Town of Andrews' Collection System Permit
Compliance Evaluation Inspection that I conducted on December 16, 2008. The Town of
Andrews is making good progress in terms of compliance with the requirements of its Collection
System Permit.
The Town badly needs a comprehensive collection system map. A Town is in a
precarious position when that the Town's collections system map resides in the head of key
employees. You have got to get this information into computer or onto paper. I encourage you to
look into the possibility of a grant to allow the Town to contract with a consulting engineer to
prepare a GIS collection system map.
I encourage Dillard to continue collection of information which hopefully can some day
be made a part of a GIS collection system map. Just as a reminder, the Town's Collection
System Permit requires a map showing pipe size, pipe material, pipe location, flow direction, pipe
age, service taps, and sewage pumping station names and capacities. If it is still the plan to turn
information over to Cherokee County to layer the Town's collection system of the County's 911
map, you need to find some way to speed the collection of the necessary information.
For an interim collection system map I have asked Deborah Weatherly, GIS
Administrator with Cherokee County, if she can make use of the NCONEMAP date to produce a
collection system map for the Town of Andrews. Debbie just called to tell me that the map is
ready. Would you please arrange to have them picked up and send me a copy. The
NCONEMAP data was gathered in 1997. Even so it may give you a good starter map of the
Town's collection system.

Attached I am returning the Town's collection system Capital Improvements Plan with,,
new page which allow the CIP to meet permit requirements. The next time I visit Andrews I will
bring an additional page for the Town's Spill Response Plan.
encourage you to consider the purchase of a trailer mounted Closed Circuit
Television CCTV Camera to be used in sewer maintenance. Most towns find that a CCTV soon
pays for itself by preventing the unnecessary digging up of sewers. A person doing sewer
maintenance is working blind without a television camera to insert in a problem sewer.
appreciate your time yesterday. Pleas do not hesitate to call meat 828-296-4500

Dear Messrs. Frank and Bata:
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has received an updated Wilderness Creek Falls lot layout map with
modified lot numbers from previous versions to which the DWQ referred. Pursuant to the new submitted
information an amended list of"no impact" lots has been developed. The DWQ is amenable to sales and.
development of these lots as they do not contain, or are bounded by waters of the state, nor require access via
the road network currently included in cited violations of state law. This document should replace the letter
issued by this office, dated September 28, 2008. Based upon this review, the Division requests that the
Cherokee County release any holds on local permit authorizations for these lots only.
Lots # 2, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44,

Dear Mr. Swain:
On December 12, 2008, I visually inspected the construction work on the US Highway 19 project in Madison
and Yancey Counties. Work is well underway in both Madison and Yancey Counties with heavy construction
activities taking place on both projects.
The Division of Water Quality has concerns over the construction because some sediment and erosion control
devices failed during recent rain events and sediment entered State surface waters. We cannot emphasize
enough the need for proper installation and maintenance of sediment and erosion structures including
straw/mulch, sediment basins, sediment control fencing, check dams, polyacrylamide,waddles, floc logs,etc.
Please continue to take necessary steps to prevent sediment from entering streams and protecting State surface
waters. Please refer to the attached inspection report for specific items noted during the inspection.
If you have questions,please call me at 828.296.4500.

The facility is being well operated.
The gate needs to be adjusted (there is a wide gap between the fence and the gate)to the fence to prevent
access by unauthorized persons or entry by animals to the plant.
The fence gate also needs repair to prevent it from snagging on the pipe on the ground. This makes it
difficult to open, enter and close.

Dear Mr, and Mrs. Im:
On October 9, 2008, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application to perform filling
activities within streams. The Division of Water Quality requested additional information mailed
November 17, 2008. As of December 22, 2009, no response has been received from you. The DWQ has
determined that your application and additional information are insufficient in order to make an agency
determination. Therefore,we are returning your application as incomplete in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0506. In order for your project to be reviewed in the future, you must submit a complete
application along with the appropriate processing fee, including, but not limited to:'
1. Your submitted application does not include all of the impacts on site, nor the removal and
restoration of these impacts. You must either obtain authorization for, or propose to remove and
restore the following:
® Rock and concrete dam to impound waters of an un-named tributary to Rose Creek
below the constructed bridge.
® The stream bank and bed excavation and rock dam construction above the constructed
bridge.
® The earthen fill associated with the routing of the two un-named tributaries between the
two driveways.
2. The Water Quality General Certification (WQC#3705, Condition 13.) for this activity requires that:
Culverts required for this project shall be designed and installed in such a manner that the
original stream profiles are not altered and allow for aquatic life movement during low flows.
Existing stream dimensions (including the cross section dimensions, pattern, and longitudinal
profile) must be maintained above and below locations of each culvert. Placement of culverts
and other structures in waters and streams must be placed below the elevation of the
streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent
of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than or equal to 48 inches, to allow
low flow passage of water and aquatic life.

Juanita James of James & James Environmental assisted in the inspection of this facility.
Records and reports were available on site including the Annual Performance Report.
There was no flow at the time of inspection.
The facility is being well operated.
The fence was down (from a fallen tree which appeared to have been removed a while back) on the back
side. On the corner next to that the fence was also compromised by a load of asphalt which had been
dumped next to the fence. The gate on the side was also open.
These breaches to the fence and gate need to be remedied as soon as possible to prevent unauthorized
access to the facility.

Compliance Sampling Inspection
Lake Lure WWTP
Permit No. NCO025381
Rutherford County
Dear Mayor Proctor:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Inspection Report conducted December 4, 2008. Jeff Menzel of
the Asheville Regional Office conducted the Compliance Sampling Inspection. The treatment facility was
found to be in violation of Permit NCO025381 for the following:
On Monday, December 1, 2008 Mr. Menzel contacted the ORC, Mr. William Grimes, of the
facility to request that he set up the composite sampler at the WWTP to collect a 24-hour effluent
composite sample. Upon arrival at the facility, on Thursday December 4th, to pick up that sample,
DWQ staff was informed, by Mr. Grimes that there was a 24-hour composite sample in the sample
container. After reviewing the ISCO composite sampler program it was determined that the sample
was only a 5-hour composite consisting of 12 individual samples taken at 350 ml each. After collecting
the effluent sample, Mr. Menzel performed an inspection of the WWTP with Mr. Grimes. Also present
for the inspection were Mr. Don Price of ARO-DWQ, Donnie McCraw with the Town of Lake Lure, and
Don Byers with Brown Consultants.
The following observations were made during the inspection:
1) Looking at the headworks of the plant, it is evident that there is an infiltration of iron
bacteria. The NPDES permit does not require sampling of metals in order to verify
the extent of iron entering the influent.
2) A new barscreen is being installed.
3) The flash mixer was not in operation. Mr. Grimes stated that it has been repaired two

process control is being conducted as no records were available for review. It should
be noted that process control is imperative in order to optimize chemical feed and
provide effective settling of the floc. One

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
The Town of Lake Lure treatment plant recently has been under a Special Order of Consent; during this
time the town rehabilitated parts of the facility to provide more effective treatment of wastewater before
discharging into the Broad river.After inspecting the facility it is clear that the time and money invested in
upgrades will be futile if this equipment is not properly maintained and process control is not conducted
routinely. Because of the reason listed in this report, the Town of Lake Lure WWTP is found to be in
violation of Section C part 2. of NPDES'permit NCO025381 for failure to provide Proper Operation and
Maintenance, including notification to the Asheville Regional Office of equipment failure/usage. As well as,
15A NCAC 02B.0211 section (f) of the Fresh Surface Water Quality Standards for Class C waters for
adversely impacting the aesthetic quality of the receiving stream.

the inspector. The sampler was not set up correctly to provide-a 24-hour composite; it
was unclear if the operator understood how the sampler works. The sampling is not flow
proportional and the operator has not provided a letter requesting time composite
sampling be granted at this facality. The operator states that the sample tubing freezes
up during cold weather, it was obvious that reconfiguring the position and length of the
sample tubing could reduce this.

The Division of Water Quality may pursue enforcement action for this and any additional
violations of State law. We are aware that this SSO was the result of root intrusion around an
illegal "hammer tap" occurring years ago. We feel that a NOV is appropriate for the reason of
the large volume of sewage reaching Wash Creek. You should take remedial action in response
to these incidents. Remedial action should include implementation of all measures necessary to
prevent recurrence.

Dear Mr Bailey:
A review has been conducted of the City of Lenoir's Collection System self reported
Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) 5-Day Report. This review has shown the subject
facility to be in violation of the requirements found in the City of Lenoir's Collection
System Permit (WQCS00035) and/or G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1). The violation is
summarized below:
NOV# Violation Location Cause Volume
Date
NOV-2008-DV-0433 12/05/2008 1207 Harper Debris in line 842 gal
Avenue
The Division of Water Quality may pursue enforcement action for this and any
additional violations of State law. We get concerned any time that a SSO occurs at the
same place for the same reason. On November 4, 2008 and again on December 5,
2008 the City of Lenoir experienced SSOs at 1207 Harper Avenue. I am asking you to
instruct municipal staff to identify the common cause for these SSOs and eliminate
those common factors. I would say that something is catching debris resulting
eventually in an overflow. Almost nothing calls our attention to a town like repeat
overflows at the same location for the same reason. Please inform me in writing what
your staff did in response to these overflows,
NorthCarolina

or Civil Penalties for SSOs please contact Roy Davis at 828-296-4659.

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Records & Reports:
A review of the files indicates that the last compliance evaluation inspection was
conducted by Janet Cantwell.
The permit expires on 1/31/2011. Please request a permit renewal 6 months prior to
expiration. A renewal notice will be mailed as a reminder.
The Annual Performance Report is due March 1, 2009.
The log book was present on-site and had good notation of daily events.
Operations & Maintenance/Summary:
This facility appears to be well operated and maintained.
Effluent:
The effluent appeared to be clear, indicating compliance with permit limits.
Deficiencies:
Immediate action is required --- Access to the WWTP poses a slip and fall hazard for
the operator who makes daily visits to the facility carrying process control equipment and supplies.
The ditch needs to have a safe means of crossing, to eliminate possible injury and legal liabilities.
On the day of the inspection, it was raining and the ditch bank was wet and very slippery, causing
the inspector to slip and nearly fall. Please respond in writing, within 30 days, as to the ..
corrective measures taken to eliminate this hazard and liability. Failure to do so, may result in
a Notice of Violation and possible civil penalty, from the Division of Water Quality.
