NPDES No. NC0021555�Ylc as n. rc' i+i+ �ydFlLCii
Carteret County t
I have discussed this permit renewal application and the associated request for a
pump & haul permit from Coastal Regional Solid Waste Management Authority
(CRSWMA) with Steve Tedder.
Due to the variability ofIthe wastestreams associated with transfer stations and the
construction schedule CRWMA is under, Steve and I recommend that we proceed
with the standard renewal of the Town of Newport's NPDES permit. Upon
commencement of operation of the pump & haul activities, we will require
CRWMA to monitor both the wastestream from the pump & haul activity and the
effluent from the town's wastewater treatment facility in accordance with Farrell
Keough's March 30, 1993 letter to CRSWMA. This information will then be
evaluated to determine whether or not the Town of Newport's NPDES permit
should be modified, or if a pretreatment permit is necessary, or if any additional
pretreatment, in addition to the aerated equalization basin, is necessary. These
monitoring requirements will be incorporated into WQ0007600 when a
modification is requested to specify the Town of Newport as the receiving facility for
the pump & haul activities.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please give me a call at extension
511.

Newport Wastewater Treatment Plant
Addition of Washdown Water
Carteret County 03-05-03
Dear Mr. Guinan:
f
I am writing on behalf of the Technical Support Branch within the Water Quality Section of the Division of Environmental
Management (DEM). I was recently informed that the Newport Wastewater Treatment Plant has requested a modification in its
permit to include the addition of transfer station washdown water. To facilitate the construction approval at the local level for
the transfer station, a Pump and Haul Permit (WQ0007600) was issued, for disposal of this waste to the Environmental
Compliance Corporation, industrial pretreatment facility in Winston-Salem, and/or Terradyne Environmental Services, Inc.
pretreatment facility in Fayetteville. Before the modification to the Newport Wastewater Treatment Plant NPDES permit to
allow the acceptance of this wastewater can be processed additional information on the wash down wastewater characteristics is
required. Very little is known of the pollutants generated at domestic waste transfer stations. Therefore, to determine
conditions for a proposed permit allowing disposal of this Transfer Station Wastewater to, the Newport Wastewater Treatment
Plant, the following monitoring information is required to be submitted:
- During five discrete events, the following parameters should be collected (either within a three month
period of Pump. and Haul Permit WQ0007600 initiation, or collected from "similar" operations - the
results should be in mg/1) ,
BOD5 , COD, Total Suspended Solids MS), NH3-N (Ammonia),
Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu), Cyanide (CN),
Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg), Nickel (Ni), Silver (Ag), Zinc (Zn)

If the Coastal Waste Regional Management Authority chooses, it may obtain this information from another Transfer Station
that is representative of the types of wastes to be found in the Coastal Regional Solid Waste Management Authority Transfer
Station Washdown Wastewater. A letter detailing the facility chosen would be necessary; i.e. name of facility, location, (if it
is in North Carolina, the Permit No.), average retention time of wastewater, average quantity of wastewater, approximate size
of community served, etc.
The Water Quality Section of the DEM has chosen this approach so as not to over -regulate the initiative your community is
taking in dealing with its waste management. Our mandate is to "protect the waters of the State"; by working in conjunction
with community initiatives like Newport's, we can accomplish this to everyones' benefit. Please provide us with a schedule to
complete the above information collection. If this schedule is not received by April 30, 1993, we will complete the reissuance
process for the Newport NPDES permit without taking into consideration this additional wastestream. If the reissuance occurs
without the transfer station washdown water being taken into consideration, a permit modification of the Newport NPDES
permit will be required before the Town can accept this additional waste stream at the wastewater treatment facility.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to call me at (919)

Dear Mr. Safrit:
With reference to our meeting of February 16, 1993, it is my
understanding that DEM would establish monitoring requirements for
the first 12-18 months of disposal at the Newport Wastewater
Treatment Facility and propose them to us as soon as possible.
Such monitoring was to be in lieu of pretreatment.
To date the only communication we have had with DEM has been a
March 29, 1993 telephone conversation initiated by Malcolm Pirnie,
our technical consultant, with Randy Jones in which Randy indicated
our situation had received some consideration but no decisions had
been reached. He also indicated, for the first time, that test
results from five (5) samples would be required to address
Newport's NPDES permit. This conversation was followed by a March
30 letter in which Farrell, Keough formalized the request for
samples.
I respectfully remind you that we are working against an absolute
Federal deadline of October 9, 1993 by which time our system must
be operational. Eight (8) weeks have lapsed since our appeal to
you and it appears that very little has been done to facilitate a
resolution of the monitoring issue identified at our meeting. In
fact, it appears that DEM has raised a new issue that further
exacerbates our already critical situation.

While we do have a Pump and Haul permit to use either Terradyne
Environmental Services; Inc. pretreatment facility in Fayetteville
or Environmental Compliance Corporation industrial pretreatment
facility in Winston-Salem, actual use of either facility would
create a. substantial financial burden which we are trying to avoid.
Furthermore, it is my understanding that DEM understood and agreed
that such permit was sought only for the purpose of obtaining a
local -.building permit.
The other, and primary, cost we are trying to avoid is the cost of
pretreatment. If, however, the monitoring program is to be so
extensive as to be cost prohibitive we need to know that
immediately to permit reassessment of.alternatives.
DEM's decisions relative to this matter are critical to our
impending operations and will have a significant impact on the cost
to residents and businesses throughout our service area.
Therefore, CRSWMA's Board of Directors, at its April 8, 1993
meeting, .directed me to request DEM' s immediate and decisive, action
regarding our pending Pump and Haul permit application to use the
Newport WWTF with monitoring in lieu of pretreatment. We believe
this to be a technically sound and financially responsible solution_
to the problem of washdown water treatment.
I will call you Monday, April 19 to request a follow_up meeting.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

taken to a regional landfill. Approximately 2,000 gpd of
wastewater is to be generated during washing of the floor and
equipment. The applicant proposes to provide no pretreatment
prior to hauling the wastewater to the Town of Newport wastewater
treatment facility. Based on a review of the project, the
following comments are offered:
1. The applicant provided data from three similar facilities
to the Washington Regional Office to support an application in
that region. The.data indicates that the wastewater may have more
than 20 times the constituent concentrations found in domestic
strength wastewater. The applicant contends that this data may
not be representative of the wastewater generated in the proposed
project but has provided no evidence to support this claim.
During a meeting in 1this office on September 2, 1992 the
applicant agreed to take samples at several existing facilities
and have them analyze them for heavy metals as well as BOD.
2. The Town of Newport operates a 0.5 MGD wastewater
treatment facility which has an average flow rate of a little
more than half the design capacity. The Town currently receives
no industrial waste and does not have a pretreatment program. The
oxidation ditch system should be able to accept additional
loading and handle shock loads fairly well. An evaluation should
be done, however, by the Town using available data to determine
if the system can handle the proposed wastewater. A determination
must be made if the, properties of the proposed waste would
classify it as a significant industrial user which would require
the town to have a pretreatment program. - cation of the
town's NPDES permit may also be necessary in order to monitor for
parameters such as heavy metals. The town must also be made aware
that constituents of.the proposed wastewater may effect the
application rate for land application of residual solids.
3. Plans indicate a simplex pump station to transfer the
wastewater to a 20,000 gallon storage tank. The consultant
indicates that a spare pump will be kept on site. The permit
should state that,a spare pump must be kept on site in order to
avoid the need for a duplex system.
4. The design flow rate is 2,010 GPD. The application
indicates that waste will be stored in the storage tank and
f hauled to the Town of Newport facility several times per week.
The impact on the treatment facility would be lessened if it were
I hauled daily. It may be necessary to further equalize the flow to
! the plant by installing an equalization tank at the treatment
facility. This should be addressed in the evaluation to be done
by the town.

Subject: Coastal eg'onal Solid Waste Management Authority 1•�
Carteret unty Solid Waste Transfer Station.
Pump and Haul Application No. WQ00.06798 �,��,p� ,'�
Carteret County
The subject facility applied for a pump and haul p rmi� to
transport the collected wastewater 1
a ter to the City of New Bern for
treatment. Data provided to the Washington Regional Office
(copies attached) indicates the BOD may as high as 14,000
mg/l, Zinc as high as 20 mg/l, oil and grease as high as 271
mg/l, lead as high as 11 mg/l, and TSS as high as 10, 530 mg/1.
The Authority has indicated they felt this data was not
representative and promised to provide alternate data. No
additional data has-been ,provided. Recent correspondence from Mr.
John Gunian indicates the current plan is to transport the
wastewater to the Town of Newport.
In addition to the standing request from this Office for
data on the constituents of the wastewater; the fact the Town of
Newport is permitted to receive only domestic wastewater must be
considered. Prior to this Office providing positive
recommendations for the collected ;wastewater .to be transported. to
the Town of Newport for treatment; the Town must apply for. anrf.
._receive an amendment to the current NPDE•S Permit which
::establishes effluent, limitations which will protect the receiving
waters.
. Of major concern is the potential for plant upset,
inhibiting the.ability of the plant to -adequately treat the
wastewater, and/or pass through of the waste. Any of the above
consequences may havesignificant adverse impact on the Newport
River
If the above cannot be accomplished within a time schedule so as ..to prevent the application from going statutory;, -it is
recommended that the application.be returned as incomplete. If.
additional comment is needed, p ase advise.
