Klimek, P.E., Director Division of Water Quality October 8, 2003 Mr. Michael E. Johnson, Environmental Manager DuPont Fluoroproducts 22828 Highway 87 W Fayetteville, North Carolina 28306-7332 Subject: Draft NPDES Permit Permit NC0003573 Fayetteville Works Bladen County Dear Mr. Johnson: Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft permit for your facility. Please review the draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. Changes to your existing permit are summarized below by outfall. Outfall 001 • Subpart I limitations have been updated in accordance with the most current 40 CFR. However, in light of the demonstration made by DuPont in accordance with 40 CFR 122.44(a)(2)(i), monitoring for these parameters if hereby waived for this permit cycle. This waiver is good only for the term of the attached draft permit. A request for waiver and supporting data will be required upon permit renewal. Outfall 006 • Subpart J limitations have been updated in accordance with the most current 40 CFR. The waiver request described above applied to outfall 001 only. As such, subpart J monitoring is required annually in the draft permit. Outfall 007 • Outfall 007 has been added to the permit with appropriate effluent limitations based on 40 CFR 414 subparts H and J. In accordance with 40 CFR 122.44(a)(2)(ii), the waiver described above cannot be applied to this outfall as this is the first permit in which the outfall has been included. As such, annual subpart J monitoring is required. Miscellaneous • Permit Expiration Date: The expiration date has been changed to October 31, 2006 in accordance with the Cape Fear River Basin permitting schedule. • The Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet has been modified to include reference to the Teflon and APFO processes. • Reference to the BCH energy project has bon ddle"tth 1617 MAIL SERVICE CENTER, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27699-1617 - TELEPHONE 919-733-5083/FAX 919-733-0719 VISIT US ON THE WEB AT http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES Permit No. NC0003573 DuPont Fluoroproducts Page 2 a The Biomixer has been added to the treatment plant description.

Such discharges shall be limited and monitored by the Permittee as specified below: 1 Upstream shall be at the Permittee's river pump station; downstream shall be at the boat ramp approximately 4500 feet downstream at Prospect Hall Landing. 2 The temperature of the effluent shall be such as not to cause an increase in the temperature of the receiving stream of more than 2.8oC and in no case cause the ambient water temperature to exceed 32oC. 3 Daily shall be defined as every day except Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays. Instream temperature sampling shall be conducted weekly. 4 The samples for fluoride shall be taken downstream of the 001 discharge, unless or until, all neutralized Naflon area streams are discharged entirely into the cooling water outfall, 002. Instream fluoride monitoring shall be conducted monthly and shall coincide with effluent monitoring. THERE SHALL BE NO DISCHARGE OF FLOATING SOLIDS OR VISIBLE FOAM IN OTHER THAN TRACE AMOUNTS.

Permit NC0005575 A. (7) 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 lI 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 Tesults .-re4uired `as part of this permit condition -will be ent+erod ,on the. Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR J) for'the montes in which tests were performed', using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and fiHP3B for` -the Gh> onic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form A'1;-'' ;(original} is ,to be sent to the following address: `a North Carolina Division., of W4te�- Quality ,: _ .... 1611 Mail Service Center i 3 talogh, North `Qarolina 276991162 Completed Aquatic jfq�dc.ty Test,, Forms shall be 'filed with the Environmental Sciences Brannch no later than 30 days after the end -� t�e,repdi-tjig period,. for which they eport is =mode. 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. (8) 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. (9) 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.
