NCCGIA distributes this dataset
The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources,
Division of Water Quality, Planning Branch in cooperation with the
NC Center for Geographic Information and Analysis, developed the GIS
data set, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Sites(NPDES),
to enhance planning, siting, and impact analysis in areas which are
directly affected by these sites. The file identifies outfall locations
for individual NPDES permitted wastewater discharges to surface waters
in North Carolina.
This data was created to assist governmental
agencies and others in making resource management
decisions through use of a Geographic Information System (GIS).
>system filename : npdes file size = 0.56 mb
>
>Revisions and updates to this layer include:
>9.) filename: npdes0306 The March 30, 2006 updates consisted of
>obtaining the most current NPDES data from the Division of Water
>Quality to replace existing data (WQ data currency - 12/07/2005).
>NOTE: Two points fell outside of North Carolina (permit NC0085839
>and NC0007510). These were corrected using archived NPDES data.
>8.) filename: npdes1000 The October 11, 2000 updates consisted of
>obtaining the most current NPDES data from the Division of Water
>Quality to replace existing data. .PAT items incorporated into
>the new version that did not exist in the December 1998 version
>include: permpipe, status, majorminor, issuedate, expdate,
>flow_mgd, dc1, dc2, dc3, dc4, dc5, region, lat, long, and class.
>(For further details on the items, see Entity_and_Attribute_Information
>section.) .PAT items removed include date (Last time point was
>checked by technician for accuracy) and MAP# (DWQ quadrangle map
>index number). NOTE: The following permits were removed from the
>database: NC0007064, NC0074578, NC0084883, and NC0086304.
>(Because of lat/long problems, these points fell outside the state,
>and NCDWQ did not have staff available to research and rectify
>these errors.)
>7.) filename: npdes1298 The December 1998 update to this layer
>consisted of projecting the data from NAD27 datum, State Plane
>projection, units of measure feet TO: NAD83 DATUM, State Plane
>PROJECTION, UNITS OF MEASURE METERS. This was done to comply with
>the NC Geographic Information Coordinating Council's "Statement of
>Direction for North Carolina Corporate Geographic Database
>Horizontal Reference, Datum and Unit of Measure". This reprojecting
>was done in various ways depending on the data type and content.
>Vector data was projected using the 'project' command in ESRI's Arc
>software and topology was cleaned and built based on coverage needs.
>Raster data was projected using ESRI's Grid module and various steps
>as applicable.
>6.) filename: npdes 694 The June 28, 1994 file contains 3,280 points.
>5.) filename: npdes1293 (previously named nc.npdes1293)

The NC DENR Water Quality
Planning Section presented the NPDES sites to NC CGIA as ASCII files.
They were converted to ARC/INFO coverages and were given attributes
also supplied by the Water Quality Planning Branch. The digital
files were plotted and any necessary label corrections were made.
Using ESRI's ARC/INFO GIS software, the dataset was built for points
using the "build" command. Topology has not been edited since the
last build or clean.
These data represent the locations and identities
of National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Sites in North Carolina
as identified by the Water Quality Planning Section.
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Sites were
marked on 7.5 Minute USGS paper topographic maps which meet
National Map Accuracy Standards. Sites were located using a best
estimate with reference to surrounding features.

The DWQ ASCII files were converted to ARC/INFO version 5.0.
The digital files were attributed and checkplots were created for
review by the Water Quality Section. Necessary corrections were
made and new plots were run. CGIA updates the digital file as needed.
