WWTP NPDES Permitting Support and Water Quality Modeling


HydroAnalysis provided NPDES permitting technical support to the Cities of Claremont and Conover (NC). We evaluated the wastewater treatment system through site visits and data analyses, designed and conducted a wasteload allocation study including hydrologic and water quality modeling, and conducted coordination meetings with the state regulatory agency. The HydroAnalysis river study demonstrated that the wastewater treatment plant discharges had minimal water quality impacts and that water quality standards were maintained. Our study supported the two municipalities in obtaining NPDES permits with increased wasteload allocations.

This project was conducted for the Cities of Claremont and Conover, NC, under subcontract to Davis & Floyd, Hickory, NC.
