Box 29535 Raleigh, NC 27626-0535 RE: Renewal of NPDES Permit No. NC0003573 Nafion® Process Wastewater Discharge to Outfall 002 Dear Mr. Nizich, DuPont Automotive P.O. Drawer Fayetteville, NC 28302 March 15, 1996 Z "I This letter is to provide you information to modify the referenced NPDES Permit to allow for the non -biodegradable Nafion® process wastewater to be discharged directly to Outfall 002, thereby bypassing the site's Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), or to be discharged to the WWTP as is done currently. The reason for this requested modification is that future expansions of the Nafion® area will unnecessarily increase the hydraulic loading to the WWTP, with no benefit to the environment by treating the non -biodegradable wastewater in the WWTP. Enclosed are two updated wastewater flow diagrams which should replace the current diagrams submitted with the NPDES Permit Renewal Application. These updated flow diagrams show the two alternate routes for the non -biodegradable Nafion® process wastewater. To characterize the Nafion® wastewater, both physical testing and aquatic toxicity testing were performed on 24-hour composite samples taken of the Nafion® HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents, the main source of process wastewater from the Nafion® area. SUMMARYi Both the Nafion® HFPO Process Scrubber and Nafion® Waste Gas Scrubber _,4ave no measurable BODS value, do exhibit measurable COD and Fluoride levels, and e it acce b�ggb aquatic toxicity levels at the worst-case concentration at Outfall 002. 30- --9 E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company ® Printe rm Recycled Paper Z-544 Rev. 8/95 Mr. Gregory Nizich NC DEHNR March 15, 1996 Page 2 The testing indicates a high TSS level for the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent, which had a large amount of salt crystals after neutralization with sulfuric acid,. Analysis of those crystals show that they are potassium sulfate, which has a solubility in water of 12% by weight. Since this scrubber effluent would be less than 0.05% of the Outfall 002 flow, these salts would be completely dissolved, thereby eliminating the TSS concern. Our NPDES permit requires monitoring of BODS, COD, Fluoride, and Bioassay at Outfall 002, so the above parameters would be monitored under the existing permit requirements. The OCPSF Priority Pollutants are currently monitored only at Outfall 001, so monitoring of the Nafion@ wastewater which bypasses the WWTP may be required for the appropriate OCPSF Priority Pollutants. A second Nafion@ Waste Gas Scrubber is being installed as part of a new Vinyl Ethers Process expansion. The effluent from this new scrubber should be identical to the existing Waste Gas Scrubber, therefore it, as well as all future non -biodegradable, non-toxic wastewaters should be allowed to bypass the WWTP. If this site elects to bypass the Nafion@ wastewater around the WWTP, it will undoubtedly be done with a pipeline, therefore any required monitoring will be simplified. The permit should be writ -ten so that any monitoring is required only when Nafion@ wastewater is bypassing the WWTP. BASIS FOR TESTING CONCENTRATIONS The performed tests were based on two potential operational schemes. The two schemes evalu- ated were: 1) Bypassing the Nafion@ HFPO Process Scrubber effluent around the WWTP and discharge it directly to the site's woodlined ditch which is discharged as Outfall 002, and discharge all other Nafion@ process wastewater streams to the WWTP and ultimately through Outfall 001; or 2) Bypassing both the Nafion@ HFPO Process Scrubber and Nafion@ Waste Gas Scrubber effluents around the WWTP and discharge them directly to the site's woodlined ditch which is discharged as Outfall 002, and discharge all other Nafion@ process wastewater streams to the WWTP and ultimately through Outfall 001. The anticipated flows for the two subject scrubber effluents following an upcomm e the HFPO process, and the three-year low flow condition for Outfall 002 are as foll J i.; i- SO 1996 CENTRAL FILES Is Mr. Gregory Nizich Page 3 NC DEHNR March 15, 1996 1) The Nafion@ HFPO Process Scrubber normal daily flow = 5,330 gal/day 2) The Nafion@ Waste Gas Scrubber normal daily flow = 5,760 gal/day I �,0q0 5?4, 3) The Outfall 002 low flow condition = 11.83 MGD The contribution of the two process streams to Outfall 002's flow is obviously very small. All physical analyses were performed on the undiluted scrubber effluents. The 48 -hr acute toxicity testing was performed on process samples diluted with laboratory water to a concentration representative of the ratio of normal process flow(s) to Outfall 002 low flow. No additional dilution was taken for the dilution effect of the Cape Fear River. The 7 -day chronic bioassay testing was performed on process samples diluted with Outfall 002 composite effluent to a concentration representative of the ratio of normal process flow(s) to Outfall 002 low flow. The bioassay testing was then performed at both a 3.3% dilution (the test concentration specified on our NPDES Permit) and at a 6.6% dilution (twice the concentration specified on our NPDES Permit). PHYSICAL TESTING RESULTS The results of the physical analytical testing of the scrubber effluents are presented in Table 1. Both the HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents exhibit no measurable level of BODS. This is expected since the Nafion@ manufacturing area produces only fluorocarbon compounds which should be totally non -biodegradable. The absence of BODS material supports our request to allow this material to bypass the WWTP. Both scrubber effluents exhibit levels of COD and TOC. Using the highest measured concentrations and the normal scrubber flows, the COD discharge from the two scrubbers would be approximately 400 lb/day. The permit currently requires monitoring of COD at Outfall 002 on a monthly basis. We feel this frequency is adequate to monitor the COD discharge in the final effluent. As described in the summary, the high TSS level for the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent results from the formation of potassium sulfate as a by-product of the pH adjustment using sulfuric acid. The dilution of this waste stream with the other streams comprising Outfall 002 will completely dissolve the potassium sulfate salts, thereby eliminating the TSS concern. The lowed TSS'result for the February 13, 1996, sample is believed to be the result of incomplete mixing 1,suspend the salts in the neutralized sample. L JUL SO 1996 CENTRAL FILES r' Mr. Gregory Nizich NC DEHNR March 15, 1996 Page 4 The BFPO Process Scrubber effluent contains from 2% to 3% fluoride, and the Waste Gas Scrubber effluent contains approximately 1% fluoride. After the upcoming HFPO Process expansion, the combined fluoride discharge from these two scrubbers would be approximately 2,400 lb/day, which is well below the permitted limit of 5,000 lb/day fluoride. Fluorides are non - biodegradable, and only a small amount of the fluorides are retained in the sludge, therefore virtually all of the fluorides currently entering the WWTP are discharged in the treated effluent to Outfall 002. AQUATIC TOXICITY TESTING RESULTS To ensure that the two subject scrubber effluent streams are not toxic to aquatic organisms, both acute and chronic testing using both invertebrates (ceriodaphnia) and vertebrates (fathead minnows) were performed with the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent separately, and with a mixture of both the HFPO Process Scrubber and the Waste Gas Scrubber effluents. The 48 -hr acute toxicity testing dilution series was based on a concentration representative of the ratio of normal scrubber flow(s) to the Outfall 002 low flow. For the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent, the worst-case concentration was 0.00045 (5,330 gal/day - 11.83 MGD). For the combined HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents, the worst-case concentration was 0.00094 ((5,330 gal/day + 5,760 gal/day) _ 11.83 MGD). No additional dilution was taken for the Cape Fear River. The acute testing was performed on 24-hour composite samples of the two scrubber effluents taken on January 30, 1996 and on February 13, 1996. The results of the January 30th testing were used to better define the dilution series for the February 13th testing. Table 2 and Table 3 give the results of the acute testing using the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent. The ceriodaphnia was the more sensitive species, with the January 30, 1996, test indicating an LC50 of 0.00084 volume Scrubber/volume diluent versus the worst-case concentration of 0.00045 volume Scrubber/volume diluent. The January 30, 1996, test of Fathead Minnow had an LC50 of 0.00257 volume Scrubber/volume diluent versus the worst-case concentration of 0.00045 volume Scrubber/volume diluent. Table 4 and Table 5 give the results of the acute testing using the combined BFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents. The ceriodaphnia was again the more sensitive species, with the February 13, 1996, test indicating an LC50 of 0.00148 volume Scrubbers/volume diluent versus the worst-case concentration of 0.00094 volume Scrubbers/volume diluent. The January 30, 1996, test of Fathead Minnow ha 0.00540 volume Scrubbers/volume diluent versus the worst-case concentration'' volume Scrubbers/volume diluent.

The North Carolina 7 -day chronic bioassay testing using ceriodaphnia dubia was also based on the worst-case concentration representative of the ratio of the normal scrubber flow(s) to the Outfall 002 low flow. For the chronic testing, the Outfall 002 24 -hr composite sample was used as the diluent. The HFPO Process Scrubber effluent worst-case concentration was 0.00045 (5,330 gal/day _ 11.83 MGD). The combined HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents worst-case concentration was 0.00094 ((5,330 gal/day + 5,760 gal/day) _ 11.83 MGD). The chronic bioassay testing was then performed at both a 3.3% dilution (the test concentration specified in our NPDES Permit) and at a 6.6% dilution (twice the concentration specified in our NPDES Permit). Table 6 gives the results of the chronic bioassay testing for the two tests conditions. In both the January 30 and February 13, 1996, testing, both the HFPO Process Scrubber effluent, and the combined HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents, passed at the 3.3% and the 6.6% concentrations. The chronic bioassay testing summary sheets from Burlington Research are attached as supporting documentation. CONCLUSION The physical testing of the Nafion@ HFPO Process Scrubber and Waste Gas Scrubber effluents shows there is no benefit gained by treating these waste streams in this site's biological treatment facility. Furthermore, the measured parameters of these effluents show that the current permit limits established at Outfall 002 are adequate if the two scrubber effluents are bypassed around the WWTP and are discharged directly to Outfall 002. The NPDES Permit may need to include a new annual monitoring requirement for the bypassed Nafion@ wastewater for the appropriate OCPSF Priority Pollutants. Otherwise, the current permit requirements for Outfall 002 would be sufficient to adequately monitor pollutants from the Nafion@ wastewater. Aquatic toxicity testing of the subject scrubber effluents indicate that they are not toxic even at the worst-case concentrations described in this letter. Therefore, we request that the renewed NPDES Permit include language to allow for this site to discharge the non -biodegradable Nafion@ process wastewaters either through the Wastewater Treatment Plant (Outfall 001 and Outfall 002) or directly to Outfall 002. - JUL 30 1996 CENTRAL FILES 1' Mr. Gregory Nizich NC DEHNR March 15, 1996 Page 6 Based on the above, I hope that you are satisfied that enough information has been submitted to allow for this permit modification.

Box 29535 ; L�; _ Raleigh, NC 27626-0535 CA RE: Renewal of NPDES Permit No. NC0003573 Re -analysis for di-n-octyl phthalate at Outfall 002 C3 Dear Mr. Nizich, Enclosed are the results from two additional Outfall 002 analyses for di-n-octyl phthlate which shows that this compound was below the method's detection limit. These results should verify that the initial analysis of 23 µg/L di-n-octyl phthlate as reported in the NPDES Permit renewal application was probably from cross -contamination of the sampler's synthetic rubber gloves. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (910) 678-1155. Enclosures E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company Michael E.
