REGAN 5ecretar:, LINDA CULPEPPER lnlerinr Dil crr: r Adel Fahmy and Hoda Gabriel 4 Centennial Ct. Apex NC 27523-6795 Dear Mr. Fahmy and Ms. Gabriel, NORTH CAROLINA Environmental Quality August 16, 2019 Subject: Permit No. WQ0022804 4 Centennial Ct SFR Wastewater Irrigation System Chatham County On February 15, 2019, Joan Schneier and Brion Byers of the NC Division of Water Resources, Water Quality Regional Operations Section conducted a compliance inspection. We would like to thank Chad Allen of AQWA, Inc. for assistance. On the date inspected, the system was non -compliant due to a fence in poor condition. Sludge levels in the septic tank are being monitored by AQWA. and will likely require pump out with a few years. All working components of the treatment and drip system were in �(7ood shape and the flow and pressure readings from the field were fairly consistent across zones. The drip field fence is down in multiple places. Both vegetation control and fence maintenance are the responsibility of the home owner and not AQWA. AIso, please see the attached inspection report. If you have not done so already, please have the fence fixed within 30 days, and notify this office by phone, letter, or email when done. A minimum of two strands of wire are required. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email at joan.schneier'd ncdenr-gov or at (919) 791-4234.
