The North Carolina Depart- ment of Natural Resources and Community Development (NRCD) has initiated a program to help Kings Mountain and 111 other communities in the state deal with toxics and to meet state and federal requirements controlling wastewater discharge. NRCD secretary Joseph W. Grimsley said this week that the rapidly increasing use of toxic chemicals is making it more im-. portant than ever that everything possible be done to protect the waters of the state. “Local government across North Carolina have hundreds of millions of dollars invested in their wastewater treatment plants,” Grimsley said, “and most of us depend on the rivers and streams of our state in one way or another. “It is most important that our OBITURRIES Mrs. Mable Ellis Dies In Thursday Car Wreck Mable McPherson Ellis, 72, of Route 1, Grover, was killed in a two-vehicle accident Thursday afternoon at the intersection of Highways 29 and 216 south of Kings Mountain.

Ice-Maker ui grams for dealing with industrial discharge, something which most of our treatment plants were not designed to do,” Grimsley continued. “This means that industries will be re- quired to treat their wastes to a level acceptable to local wastewater treatment plants.” About 30 percent of the 372 publicly owned treatment systems in the state will be re- quired by the state Division of Environmental Managment and the federal Enviromental Protec- tion Agency (EPA) to submit program plans to the state by January 1, 1983. Karate Seminar Saturday Joe Lewis will be giving a kickboxing and self-defense seminar on July 3 at the Eng School of Self Defense in Kings Mountain. Lewis is recognized as one of the all-time greats in karate competitin. He com- peted in the ring for over 10 years and won every title in the sport of karate and full- contact karate. He is now retired from ac- tive competition: and is pur- suing a full-time career in ac- ting. He is presently working on a major karate movie. Information on the Kings Mountain seminar may be obtained by calling Robert Eng at the Eng School of Self Defense. gram staff will assist local com- munities, including those in Kings Mountain, in developing these plans. The EPA recently delegated the authority to ap- prove local programs to the Divi- sion of Environmental Manage- ment. The state pretreatment pro- gram is intended to prevent the. introduction into publicly owned treatment plants of pollutants which would interfere with the - operation of the facility or con- taminate the sewage sludge. A second purpose will be the prevention of the introduction into a facility of pollutants which would pass through the treatment facility into the waters of the state or the environment or otherwise are incompatable with the plant. And a third pur- pose will be to improve oppor- tunities to recycle and reclaim wastewaters and the sludges resulting from wastewater treat- ment. The program is expected to provide the mechanisms to iden- tify unexpectedly large industrial users and provide local legal authority to require industry to treat its wastewater to required standards. Program benefits for local communities include prolonged life of their treatment: works, identification of cost burdens for industrial waste treatment, bet- ter planning, and protection of the environment from incom- patible pollutants. A staff of eight will administer the pretreatment program and work with local government representatives.
