It lists Blue Creek (Class SC; NSW). Attached is the electronic copy of the renewal COC. Is that correct? I can't tell for certain from the aerial, but I think you said the new VMF outfall would ultimately discharge to the same waters as the other three active outfalls do today. Does Southwest Creek need to be added to the COC, or does the COC need to be corrected because Blue Creek is not correct?

(CDM Smith), on behalf of Onslow County (County), is submitting this request to add a stormwater outfall monitoring location for the new vehicle maintenance facility (VMF) under the existing National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)'General Permit (Certificate of Coverage Number: NCG120023) for the Subtitle D Landfill. The General Permit was issued on November 1, 2012, and will expire on October 31, 2017. A background summary of the existing NPDES monitoring program, VMF outfall details, and an estimated monitoring schedule are detailed below. Background The Onslow County Solid Waste Facility consists of two closed unlined landfills (Permit Number 67-05), an active Subtitle D landfill (Permit Number 67-09), a materials recycling facility operated by a private company, and administrative and vehicle/equipment maintenance buildings. Stormwater runoff from the Subtitle D landfill is captured in a perimeter drainage ditch and channeled to three sedimentation basins located around the landfill. The runoff is eventually discharged through outfalls (Outfalis 1 through -3) located at each sedimentation basin. Stormwater samples are collected semi-annually from the outfalls and analyzed for chemical oxygen demand, fecal coliform, and total suspended solids in accordance with the General Permit. A site map showing the outfall locations is provided on Figure 1. A compliance inspection was conducted by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on January 23, 2013, to evaluate the County's request to remove Outfall 1 from the monitoring program and to ensure compliance with their NPDES permit. Outfall 1 discharges stormwater runoff from the partially closed portion of the Subtitle D landfill. The partial closure, from bottom to top, consists of a minimum 12-inch thick intermediate soil cover layer (also serving as the cap liner system subgrade), gas venting geocomposite drainage net (CDN), textured 40-mil linear low density polyethylene geomembrane, stormwater management CDN, a minimum 18-inch thick protective soil cover layer, and a minimum 6-inch vegetative soil cover layer to promote grass growth and help stabilize slopes. Based on the co WATER + ENVIRONMENT +TRANSPORTATION + ENERGY + FACILITIES �Smith Ms. Bethany Georgoulias August 4, 2015 Page 2 inspection results, the County was found to be in compliance with their NPDES permit and granted representative outfall status for Outfall 1, which eliminated collecting stormwater samples semi-annually at this location. Qualitative monitoring continues to be performed for Outfall 1 in accordance with the permit conditions. Samples collected from Outfall 3 during the 2014 semi-annual sampling events had detections of fecal coliform and chemical oxygen demand above their respective benchmark value. These benchmark exceedances were related to washouts on the east side slope of the active portion of the Subtitle D landfill. In response to the benchmark value exceedances, the County implemented Tier One and Two responses. The County has been performing Tier Two monitoring (monthly) for Outfall 3 since January 2015 and will continue until three consecutive sampling events are below the benchmark values. Vehicle Maintenance Facility Outfall The County is preparing to construct a new VMF that will service County and landfill vehicles and equipment. The VMF will include a new access road and parking area as shown on Figure 2. Stormwater runoff from the new VMF will be monitored at Outfall VMF as shown on Figure 1 in accordance with the General Permit. Stormwater samples will be collected semi-annually from the outfall and analyzed for non -polar oil & grease using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Method 1664 and total suspended solids using Standard Method 2540D. All samples will be analyzed by a North Carolina certified laboratory. Stormwater pH will be measured during each sampling event. Sampling results, including total precipitation as measured from an on -site rain gauge and an estimate of the volume of new motor and hydraulic oil on -site for each sampling event, will be maintained with the operating records for the landfill. Qualitative monitoring results will also be maintained. Stormwater runoff from the new VMF will be collected in a drainage channel located around the perimeter of the south closed unlined landfill as shown on Figure 3. Stormwater in the drainage channel flows to a former borrow pit.(D_ischarge from the.former borrow pit is to an unnamed-tributary_ofi CSouthwest Creek. Southwest,Creek is approximatelyr5;100_feet west of'the western property boundary. Monitoring Schedule Construction activities for the new VMF are estimated to begin in the fall or winter of 2015 and will likely be completed in the spring or summer of 2016. Preliminary grading activities and the installation of erosion and sedimentation control measures began in July 2015. Semi-annual sampling activities -will begin when there is more than 55 gallons of new motor or hydraulic oil on -site when averaged over the calendar year (660 gallons). Stormwater monitoring for the existing VMF is not performed because the volume of new motor or hydraulic oil that is used does not average more than 55 gallons a month over the calendar year. The County anticipates using the existing VMF for new motor and hydraulic oil storage in the fall of 2015. ej r M-4 F n MW-2 and -2a - M-3 8a ` M-2 MW-7 MW-6 w �; M-3a M-7 .• v � � r i r'ry - -4a M-6 - Outfall 1 r � M-4 ..

Per our discussions earlier, I think we are in the right place here with your directions to the consultant and the County. Onslow County is requesting removal of Outfall No. 1 from coverage under their COC, NCG120023. If you or I get any further contact on this point, I think I'd like to clarify my thinking in preparation for that contact. Just so we are prepared. From a permitting standpoint, I'd clarify my perspective on the several issues raised by the consultant as follows: 1. Beginning point: Federal NPDES regs require a permit for stormwater discharges from industrial activity areas at landfills. Onslow County holds our NCG120 permit, and is obligated to monitor the outfalls, and comply with the Tier and benchmark provisions. Onslow has asked DWQ for a relaxation of monitoring obligations. 2. Within our General Permit NCG120 there are some provisions that allow relaxed monitoring obligations: a. We can „grant representative outfall status if we concur that it is appropriate. Onslow County has not requested representative outfall status in this letter. b. We can grant relief from monthly monitoring under Tier 2 if we think continued monitoring is not helping solve a mystery, or if continued monitoring is not moving the permittee closer to a solution for reducing polluted discharges. Onslow County is requesting we relieve them of monthly, and really all, sampling from Outfall 1. My perspective: Onslow County has not done enough monitoring to solve a mystery, or to prompt them to attempt to address the fecal discharges. The data set accumulated is small, and the reporting of the test results is flawed (i.e., `greater than'). The consultant has just jumped to the cause he thinks is likely, and the solution that he thinks avoids further costs: wildlife is the cause, and his low cost solution is do nothing and stop tesj . He has asserted these conclusions, but he has not presented.a persuasive case for these conclusions. c. And we can eliminate the regulation of portions of landfills that are closed under past policy of our program, under which we interpret that those closed portions of landfills are no longer engaged in active industrial activity, and so are not under NPDES regulations for stormwater permitting, and so are not subject to the provisions of the NCG120. Although the argument presented by the consultant is not sharply focused, this is his best point. But, it's not quite a strong enough point. i. Looking at the cap system described in the letter for the Partially Closed portion: it's 36" of soil in three layers with the top vegetated, a gas vent system, and a shallow infiltration collection and discharge system. This is a very good (and I presume a FINAL) cover, ie the one that DWM will require over the whole site, eventually. So, under our implementation of the federal NPDES rules, we really could consider that portion of the landfill as closed, and its discharges as no longer regulated. ii. Except that these flows from the very good Partially Closed portion commingle with the flows from the TemRorarily Closed portion, and the engineer provides no description of the closure for the Temporarily Closed portion. Instead, he reports that that portion is slated for future expansion. It discharges to Outfall No. 1. Outfall No. 1 therefore is receiving flow from a portion of the facility that has not yet received final closure. And so the discharges from Outfall No. 1 are still regulated. iii. So, in conclusion on this point it seems to me that the argument is not quite strong enough for us to exclude Outfall No. 1 from regulation under the permit. But thinking a little further on this, if the permittee were to re -grade the Temporarily Closed portion (the central plateau of the fill) and direct runoff from that portion to Outfalls No. 2 or 3, leaving Outfall No. 1 to receive flow from the truly closed portion, I think that would allow us to grant their request to stop sampling Outfall No. I. in some form. But, they have not proposed that, yet. 3. The consultant has also thrown in the argument of'wildlife.' Essentially, he offers the argument that because the fecal coliform is from wildlife, fecal measurements should not be considered exceedances, and by extension should not be compared to benchmark values, and should not trigger the Tiered structure as a management response to polluted discharges. a. The consultant has made no report that the permittee has attempted g-ay remedial measures, even on the cheapest, smallest scale; he's just asking to be excused; b. The consultant has not offered anything other than conjecture as to the source of the fecal concentrations being wildlife; c. And even if he did substantiate that wildlife contributes most or all of the polluted discharges, DWQ is not yet persuaded that landfills in general should be excused from the potential surface water impacts of fecal contributions of wildlife at' landfill sites: i. Consider that if the permittee was not operating a landfill, that concentration of wildlife would not occur, and would not result in high fecal content in the stormwater runoff. So, the presence and operation of the landfill is the roximate cause of the fecal pollution, whatever its source; ii. And further, consider that our brothers and sisters in DWM require the control of vectors as a legitimate area of regulation and permit conditions, Even though the landfill operators might raise the same issue that those vectors are "wildlife', are just natural, and consequently the permittee should not be obligated to try to control something clearly_ outside_ of their control. But, that doesn't happen, does it? No, the permittees understand their obligation to control vectors under the DWM permit. Consider that DWM requires control of vectors for exactly the same core reason that our permit measures fecal coliform content: reduction in the risk of bacteriological pollution. DWM's focus is on human health consequences from that pollution, while DWQ's focus is on the aquatic environment consequences. Linda, I think your direction to the consultant and permittee are right on the mark: they need to put together a better case for any request; they need to step through the structure of the permit (Tier 2, Tier 3) first as laid out in the permit text; and they need to at least make some attempt to respond to the exceedances other than an immediate request to be excused. Ultimately, it's very possible we will excuse them: other Regional Offices have, and the Central Office SPU is fully on board with that. But only upon some more evidence of trying to understand and solve the problem, not just asking to be excused.

Thanks much for sending that for our review. The data collected in 2012 is showing an elevation of fecal concentration relative to 2010 and 2011. The concentrations reported as greater than is a problem since the values could be anything above the concentration reported (>2,420 on 10/2/2012). Without the proper dilutions being made to provide accurate analyses, we have no choice at this juncture than to ask that the County continue monitoring outfall #1. The County should instruct the laboratory to conduct the appropriate dilutions in,order to obtain more accurate readings. DWQ cannot make a decision based upon "greater than" values, since the actual concentrations could be problematic for surface waters. We must have more accurate data from which to make a decision, especially concerning the abandonment of monitoring at an outfall that is showing an upward trend for bacteria concentrations. It is certainly possible wildlife is influencing the bacteria data. The County will need to institute Tier 2 responses including monthly monitoring. This is consistent with the permit. We'd like to see more data before making a decision to eliminate an entire outfall. After we have some data to review, we can discuss decreasing the monitoring back to semi annual monitoring. We can alleviate the requirement for monthly monitoring even though continued exceedances occur, but we need to pretty certain about the sources (wildlife vs pollutants associated with the landfill) and/or the permittees intentions to resolve the issues. I will contact the county and relay this information to them and ask them to be sure they instruct their laboratory to conduct the appropriate dilutions when analyzing Fecal Coliform.

Fecal coliform has been detected in consecutive sampling events at Outfall No. 1 above the benchmark value. The fecal coliform detections are likely wildlife related as stormwater runoff discharged through Outfall No. 1 is from partially closed areas of the landfill that are constructed with a liner system. The liner system prevents leachate from being discharged. Additionally, no other pollution sources are known. Based on a preliminary discussion with Ken, discharge from Outfall No. 1 may not be a regulated discharge. Additional details are provided in the letter. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a site visit prior to making a determination. I have a full schedule next week but could meet you at the landfill any day after.

Best Regards, Linda -----Original Message ----- From: Forbes, Daniel [mailto:ForbesD(@cdmsmith.com] Sent: Saturday, November 10, 2012 4:42 PM To: Willis, Linda Cc: Pickle, Ken; Colone, Mathew Subject: Onslow County Landfill - NPDES Monitoring Program Modification Request Linda, / Attached is a request letter for removing Outfall No. 1 from Onslow County's NPDES monitoring program. Fecal coliform has been detected in consecutive sampling events at Outfall No. 1 above the benchmark value. The fecal coliform detections are likely wildlife related as stormwater runoff discharged through Outfall No. 1 is from partially closed areas of the. landfill that are constructed with a liner system. The liner system prevents leachate from being discharged. Additionally, no other pollution sources are known. Based on a preliminary discussion with Ken, discharge from Outfall No. 1 may not be a regulated discharge. Additional details are provided in the letter. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a site visit prior to making a determination. I have a full schedule next week but could meet you at the landfall any day after. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. -Dan Daniel Forbes I Geologist I CDM Smith 1 5400 Glenwood Avenue, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27612 T: 919-325-3566 1 F: 919-781-5730 1 forbesd_flcdmsmith.com www.cdmsmith.com<http://www.cdmsmith.com> 2 RAI 5400 Glenwood Avenue, Suite 300 Raleigh, North Carolinp 27612 tel: 919-787-5620 fax: 919.M-5730 November 10, 2012 Ms. Linda Willis North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality 127 North Cardinal Drive Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Subject: Outfall Removal Request Onslow County Solid Waste Facility — NPDES Monitoring Program Certificate of Coverage Number - NCG120023 Dear Ms. Willis: amp Dresser McKee & Smith (CDM Smith), on behalf of Onslow County (County), is submitting this request to remove Outfall No. Ifrom the national Pollutant Discharge Elimination.System (NPDES) monitoring progr am. fhe request to remove Outfall No. 1 is based on a preliminary discussion with Mr. Ken Pickle with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources - Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on October 31, 2012 that the discharge from Outfall No. 1 may not be a regulated discharge. Background information about the monitoring program, details of the Subtitle D landfill partial closure and conclusions for removing Outfall No 1 from the program are provided below. Background The Onslow County Solid Waste Facility consists oiCtwo closed unlined landfills an active�ubtitle D landfill)and a%naterials recycling facility)that is operated by a private company. The NPDES program for the facility monitors stormwater runoff fro ,the active Subtitle D landfill. Stormwater runoff is captured in a perimeter d ra inage ditch and channeled to three sedimentation basins located around the perimeter of the landfill. The runoff is eventually discharged through outfalls located at each sedimentation basin. The locations of Outfall No. 1, -2, and -3 and the sedimentation basins are provided on Figure 1. Samples collected from Outfall No. 1 during the precipitation event on October 2, 2012 had detections of fecal coliform (greater than 2,420 colonies) above the benchmark value. This was the second consecutive detection above the benchmark value, which requires the County to perform the Tier 2 response and repeat the required actions for the Tier 1 response.[e County is waiting for a WATER +ENVIRONMENT +TRANSPORTATION + ENERGY + FACILITIES LOU 47— / J COfti fis pvls/M Y% v� fp sam�olc/ �Q� � imn�� �� ;�k�fv�.-r �r�r'•4�,�'.��,/��e sense fo Ms. Linda Willis f � 5��/O/in i fGu November 10 2012 � lJ Page 2 �> !�✓ � ,p�r�it /% �s c��°n %fgra�dr�� determination from the DWQ or removing Outfall No. 1 from the monitoring program prior to implementing the Tier 2 response Note that a Tier 1 response was filed at the facility after fecal coliform was detected (greater than 2,420 colonies) above the benchmark value in samples collected from Outfall No. 1 during the previous monitoring period (i.e. January 1 —June 30, 2012). Partial Closure Phase I of the Subtitle D Landfill Partial Closure Construction Project was completed in December 2010 and resulted in the closure of approximately 13 acres on the south and west slopes. Temporary closure of the east slope and plateau was also completed. The partially closed areas were capped with a liner system and the temporarily closed areas were not due to future landfill expansions. The partial and temporary closed areas of the landfill are provided on Figure 1. The final cover for the partial closure, from bottom to top, consists of a minimum 12-inch thick intermediate soil cover layer (also serving as the cap liner system subgrade), gas venting geocomposite drainage net (CDN), textured 40-mil linear low density polyethylene (LDP) geomembrane, stormwater management CDN, a minimum 18-inch thick protective soil cover layer, and a minimum 6-inch vegetative soil cover layer to promote grass growth and to stabilize the slopes. The Phase 1 Partial Closure Construction Project also included the installation of a landfill gas (LFG) venting system. The gas venting system consists of the gas venting CDN, vertical LFG wells, and surface collection piping. Stormwater runoff in the partially and temporarily closed areas of the landfill is controlled by drainage berms and channels that direct runoff to concrete open throat yard inlets. The yard inlets are connected to 18-inch diameter corrugated high -density polyethylene downdrains that discharge the runoff to the perimeter drainage channel. The plateau is graded to channel runoff to a downdrain located on the west side of the landfill. The downdrain locations are provided on Figure 2 and the drainage berms can be seen in the aerial photo. Precipitation that infiltrates through the protective cover to the stormwater CDN installed in the partially closed areas of the landfill is directed to LDP drainage flaps that discharge stormwater to the drainage channels. Conclusions Sedimentation Basin 1 collects stormwater runoff from the partially closed areas of the Subtitle D landfill and the temporarily closed plateau that is discharged through Outfall No. 1. The drainage area for Sedimentation Basin 1 and flow direction for the perimeter drainage channel is provided on Figure qas venik 2. The liner system installed for the partial closure eliminates the potential for leachate to be collected J in stormwater runoff that could be discharged though Outfall No. 1.

The landfill is known to be used by numerous migratory birds'that perch on the side slopes J and plateau of the partially closed"areas of the Subtitle D landfill. Additionally, ducks, geese, and 111 turtles tend to inhabit Sedimentation Pond 1.when stormwater is present. Beavers are indigenous to L ? the area but have not been seen inhabiting the sedimentation basins. i stormwater discharged through Outfall No. 1 is not impacted with leachate due to the capped drainage areas of the Subtitle D landfill that channel runoff to Sedimentation Basin 1. Based on the preliminary discussion with the DWQ, discharge through Outfall No. 1 may not be a regulated ,,ra�ld trm+l discharge since there are no other potential.pollution sources_ other than wildlife: Therefore, Outfall 0(,'f1r6YW'�yf No..1 should be removed from the monitoring program. �utT7i�S �S J if you have any questions or require further explanation, do not hesitate to call me at (919) 787-5620. a��t c o rrr44,- Sincerely, Daniel H.

The compliance refers to requiring a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan which is not a requirement of this permit. The corrected compliance language that should go under Part III, Section A: 1. is shown below. We have also attached a new page reflecting this change for your permit file (Part III page 1 of 11). This new page should replace the current page in your permit. SECTION A: COMPLIANCE AND LIABILITY Compliance Schedule The permittee shall comply with the permit in accordance with the following schedule: Existing Facilities: Upon the effective date of the Certificate of Coverage the permittee shall comply with all of the conditions detailed in Part 1I, Section A: Final Limitations and Controls for Stormwater Discharges. New Facilities: Upon the beginning of discharges from the operation of the industrial activity the permittee shall comply with all conditions detailed in Part II, Section A: Final Limitations and Controls for Stormwater Discharges.
