CHRONIC TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
L) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic
Bioassay Procedure - Revised *February 1987) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality is % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure
document). The permit holder shall perform Quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish
compliance with the pen -nit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from
issuance of this permit during the months of WarTon 50io. AP-0 . Effluent
sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below
all treatment processes.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent
Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the
appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following
address:
Attention: Technical Services Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test
and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit
suitable test results will constitute a failure of permit condition.

SUBJECT: Flow on the Haw River

available dilution.

Please note that extension of the Graham outfall below Back Creek
would not allow for a significant amount of additional dilution.
Please note also that the current wasteload allocation is based
on a 7Q10 of 52 cfs.
Please advise if questions.
