protection, such State may completely
prohibit the discharge from all vessels of
any sewage, whether treated or not, into
such waters, except that no such
prohibition shall apply until the
Administrator determines that adequate
facilities for the safe and sanitary
removal and treatment of sewage from
all vessels are reasonably available for
such water to which such prohibition
would apply.
According to DENR DWQ the
following facilities are located in
Brunswick, Pender, and New Hanover

approved waste treatment systems, or
the waste is collected into a large
holding tank for transport to a sewage
treatment plant. Thus all vessel sewage
will be treated to meet existing
standards for secondary treatment.
Based on the examination of this
petition, its supporting documentation,
and public response, EPA concurs with
the State of North Carolina’s
determination that adequate and
reasonably available facilities for the
safe and sanitary removal and treatment
of sewage from all vessels are present in
the described area going from the South
Carolina/North Carolina State line to the
northern boundary of the Pender County
line in North Carolina, with the inland
limit of the NDZ in the Cape Fear River
being the waterway known as Snow’s
Cut (Snow’s Cut entrance to Cape Fear
River located from 34°3′5.8962″ N;
77°55′4.8966″ W to 34°3′4.5216″ N
77°56′37.086″ W), and 3 nm out into the
Atlantic Ocean, and therefore this area
is designated as a NDZ.

at mean low tide.
The total vessel population for these
three counties (2009 data) is 28,400.
This number reflects active vessel
registrations and was obtained from the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission (inactive registrations were
not included in these figures). It is
recognized that only a small percent of
the vessels in the coastal waters of
Brunswick and Pender Counties are
equipped with a Marine Sanitation
Device (MSD). To estimate the number
of MSDs in use, percentages obtained
from EPA Region 2 were applied and are
as follows:

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 4.

78.5% with MSDs.
82.6% with MSDs.
In applying these percentages an
estimated 3,888 MSDs are in use by
registered boats within the proposed
NDZ.
According to the New Hanover
County NDZ Application submitted to
EPA, the number of transient boats
serviced by marinas in New Hanover
County was calculated to be
approximately 180 per month.
Assuming similar numbers of transient
boats for Brunswick and Pender
Counties, the total number of transient
boats for Brunswick, Pender, and New
Hanover Counties would be 540. Using
the figures for both county and transient
boats, the total number of MSDs in these
waters is estimated to be 4,428. There
are 12 marinas within this area, and this
yields a ratio of about 369 boats per
pumpout facility. This figure does not
include the 4 marinas that are located
within 5 nm of this proposed NDZ area.

described either discharge into State
