<b>POSITION INFORMATION</b><br>
<br>
This position is physically located in the Archdale Building in Raleigh, NC.<br>
<br>
The Non-Discharge Branch (NDB) is principally responsible for the technical evaluation and permitting of wastewater treatment and disposal, reclaimed water, and residuals management systems that do not discharge to the surface waters of the State in accordance
with the rules adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. The function of these permits, and the requirements included as conditions of these permits, is to ensure that the rivers, streams, lakes, estuaries, other surface waters and groundwaters of
North Carolina are protected at or above the standards assigned to the specific waters. The NDB typically takes a lead role in program development for new and existing programs. Program development may include establishing criteria for new programs, rule making,
training of staff and customers, reviewing existing criteria for program needs, etc.<br>
<br>
The primary purpose of this position is to provide hydrogeologic insight and expertise to the permit application review process for facilities that discharge waste to the land surface. This position shall also serve as the central point of contact for the seven
Regional Offices in regards to groundwater monitoring, data analysis, well construction, and well locating. This position shall also focus on the evaluation of existing non-discharge groundwater monitoring well networks to assist the Regional Offices in determining
compliance, and whether or not the existing monitoring well network is sufficient and/or properly located.<br>
<br>
The secondary purpose of this position is to provide detailed non-engineering review of residual management, non-discharge permit renewal, ownership change, and minor modification applications.<br>
<br>
Work is multi-disciplinary and assignments address moderate to complex environmental issues, problems and/or projects. Employee may analyze and manage data; assist clients with compliance issues; manage projects in the area of assignment; work collaboratively
with clients in problem-solving issues. Employee is involved with report preparation to track progress and identify trends.<br>
