Ross, Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director Division of Water Quality Subject: NPDES Permit Correction Permit No. NC0003573 Fayetteville Works Bladen County Division personnel received your comments on the issued NPDES permit for the above referenced facility and have corrected the permit accordingly. Specifically, the following corrections have been made the attached permit: • The facility name has been changed to "DuPont - Fayetteville Works". • Reference to the Dymetrol process has been eliminated from the Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet. • Item number 4 on the Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet has been eliminated in recognition of the lack of process wastewater from the APFO process (not outfall 007). • Former item number 5 is now item number 4 on the Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet and has been modified to eliminate any reference to outfall 007. • The flow measurement location in condition A.(1) has been changed to "Effluent". • Conditions A.(4) and A.(6) have been deleted in recognition of the elimination of outfall 007. • Former condition AV) is now condition A.(5) and has been modified to eliminate any reference to outfall 007. • The flow measurement location for new condition A.(5) - former condition A.(7) - has been modified to read "Influent or Effluent" in recognition of the way that flow has historically been measured for outfall 002. • The sample type for fluoride in new condition A. (5) has been changed from grab to composite. • The sample frequency for conductivity in new condition A.(5) has been changed from monthly to weekly. • Instream monitoring for outfall 002 has been provisionally waived in recognition of the facility's participation in the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association. Note 1 on new condition A.(5) has been modified to reflect such. 1617 MAIL SERVICE CENTER, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27699-1 61 7 - TELEPHONE 919-733-5083/FAX 919-733-0719 VISIT US ON THE WEB AT http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES Mr. Johnson DuPont Fayetteville - NCO003573 Page 2 • Former condition A.(11) - Outfall Warning Condition - now condition A.(9) has been modified to allow the facility 30 days from the effective date of the permit to post the outfall warning sign. Regarding the effluent limitation for hexachlorobenzene, the US EPA adopted a new criteria for this parameter during DuPont's previous permit cycle. As such, the allowable concentration for hexachlorobenzene has lowered accordingly. Compliance with all terms and conditions of the attached permit is the responsibility of the Permittee. Please note that T15A O8G .0204 of the North Carolina Administrative Code has been interpreted to mean that the Operator in Responsible Charge is responsible for operation of water pollution control systems.

Permit NC0003573 A. (6) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY) — OUTFALL 001 The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 3.3%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August, and November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR -1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP313 for the pass/fail results and THP313 for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT -3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Water Quality 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. Permit NC0003573 A. (7) RE -OPENER CONDITION This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to incorporate additional toxicity limitations and monitoring requirements in the event toxicity testing or other studies conducted on the effluent or receiving stream indicate that detrimental effects may be expected in the receiving stream as a result of this discharge. A. (8) BIOCIDE CONDITION The permittee shall not use any biocide except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in cooling systems which may be toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Water Quality. Such notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map locating the discharge point and receiving stream. A. (9) OUTFALL WARNING CONDITION Within 30 days of the effective day of this permit, the permittee shall post a sign along the wastewater conveyance. This sign shall include language that indicates the channel to be an industrial wastewater conveyance no recommended for recreational purposes. This sign shall also provide appropriate DuPont contact information in the event members of the public have questions or concerns. NPDES Permit Administrative Corrections Subject: NPDES Permit Administrative Corrections From: "Michael E Johnson" <Michael.E.Johnson@USA.dupont.com> Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2004 10:43:47 -0500 To: Mark.Mcintire@ncmail.net Mark, Per our telephone conversation last week, here are the administrative corrections I request be made for our recently issued NPDES Permit. rection 1 - Front page of permit, please change the name of this facility from "DuPont Fluorocarbons" to "DuPont - Fayetteville Works". C ection 2 - Second page of permit titled "Supplement to Permit Cover beet", please modify item number 2 to read: "Discharge treated process wastewater from Butacite, Nafion, and Teflon(R) PMDF, process stormwater, The Dymetrol business has been physically moved from this site, and the APFO Facility was constructed so as to have no process wastewater discharges. Co ection 3 - Second page of permit titled "Supplement to Permit Cover eet", please eliminate item number 4 that refers to APFO wastewater discharging through Outfall 007. As I explained above, the APFO Facility was constr ted so as to have no process wastewater discharges. Co ction 4 - Second page of permit titled "Supplement to Permit Cover eet", please modify item number 5 to be item number 4, and then modify the wording of that paragraph to read: and effluent from outfall 006 through outfall 002 at the location specified..." rection 5 In Section A.(1) which lists the limitations for Outfall 001, please change the Sample Location for the Flow parameter from "Influent or Effluent" to "Effluent". Outfall 001 has a calibrated flume which c ntinuously measures and integrates the flow rate through it. stion - In Section A(2) titled Subpart I Requirements, the daily limit for hexachlorobenzene is listed as 0.5 ug/L whereas it was aximum `, 1.41 ug/L in our previous permit. I just wanted to point this out in case ']C or DWQ) deccideddthatuthebwaterlquality standardeassume forhe achlorobenzenee (EPA needed to be lowered. rrection 6 Please eliminate Sections A(4) and A(6) since there is no discharge of process wastewater from the APFO process. Co�erence 7 - In the narrative of Section A(7), please eliminate the o APFOand Outfall 007. Therefore, that paragraph should read: from Outfall 002 (boiler blowdown, once -through cooling water, treated wastewater from Outfall 001, and Nafion low -biodegradable process wastewat s from Outfall 006)." rection 8 - In Section A(7), which lists the limitations for Outfall 002, please change the Sample Location for the Flow parameter from "Effluent" to "Influent or Effluent". Outfall 002 has no means of measuring its flow rate. Therefore, our NPDES permit has always allowed us to measure the amount of water pumped from the Cape Fear River and report that as our Outfall 002 flow. C ection 9 - In Section A(7), please change the Sample Type for the luoride parameter from "Grab" to "Composite". This parameter has always been a composite sample, and I cannot think of any reason for it to be a grab. rrection 10 - In Section A(7), I believe the Measurement Frequency for 1 of 2 2/2/2004 5:13 PM x > 7, 7 71 MOW Z ".3:A _w BM 2.3 AM _k 'Ni N.

The old permit had it listed as weekly, and the other instream monitoring is listed as "weekly". Correctio - Section A(11) states that DuPont must post the Outfall War g Sign "within 30 days of the issuance of this permit". The cover tter is dated January 9, 2004, the envelope was postmarked on January 15, 2004, and I received the permit on January 19, 2004, meaning I received notification of this requirement ten days after the issuance date. To give us the time needed to design, create and install this sign, please change Section A(11) to read "Within 30 days of the effective date of this permit, ". We believe we can have the sign in place by the end of February. Question - As a follow-up to the phone message I left you, should there be language in the NPDES permit which states that the requirement to perform instream monitoring is waived so long as this facility is a recognized member identified in the Memorandum of Agreement between the Division of Water Quality and the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association, and so long that the Association performs the instream monitoring specified in the MOA? I heard the phone message you left me about facilities doing some instream monitoring in addition to the coalition monitoring, and the answer is that ALL instream monitoring is waived if a facility is a member of one of the DWQ-recognized river monitoring coalitions. I think that is all I found on the permit. Call me (910-678-1155) if you have any questions.
