SUBJECT: Effluent Limitations For:

Newsoms Sand and Gravel - Hertford County
Per your request, we have reviewed the wasteload allocations for, the subject
dischargers in light of the information you submitted in your memo elated
June 23, 1980. The concentrations listed for each discharger are
within the range of the average total N and P concentrations in the Chowan
River. It is recommended that, due to the small flows involved and the
low total N and P concentrations measured, no N or P limitations should
be given. Attached please find copies of the jdTLA's an-d memos from Technical
Services to Dr. Grigg and Dr. Grigg to L. P. Benton. These memos, in
effect, give the necessary approval, as required in 15 NCAC 2B .0214, for
our recommendations . In addition, we would suggest that minimal periodic
monitoring requirements be incorporated into the subject facilities ' permits.
Please call if you have any questions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Forrest Westall
FROM: Roger K. Thorpe
SUBJECT: West Point Pepperell - Hertford County
Edenton Cotton Mills - Chowan County
Edenton Water Plant - Chowan County
Newsoms Sand & Gravel - Hertford County
We have received waste load allocations for the subject discharges. Each
of the discharges enters the Chowan River Basin. The discharges have been
sampled for total nitrogen and phosphorus since the allocations were
received. The results are listed below:
Total N Total P
West Point Pepperell- 2.27 mg/l 0.29 mg/l
Edenton Water Plant 1 .48 mg/l 0.10 mg/l
Edenton Cotton Mills 1 .53 mg/l 0.25 mg/1—
Newsoms Sand & Gravel 1 .8 mg/l c O.05 mg/1
The allocations received do not contain limits on N&P. Please advise
whether or not the allocations should be revised to contain N&P limits.

FROM: Forrest Westall 1#
SUBJECT: Effluent Limitations for:
West Point Pepperell - Hertford County
Newsoms Sand and Gravel - Hertford County
Edenton Water Plant - Chowan County
Edenton Cotton Mills - Chowan County
The subject facilities discharge wastes to receiving waters located in
the Chowan River Basin. As you are aware, these waters have been classified
as Nutrient Sensitive according to rule 15 NCAC 2B .0214. Based on
information submitted to Technical Services by the Washington Regional
Office, we have determined that effluent concentrations of Total Nitrogen
and Total Phosphor-us -for all four dischargers are within the ranges observed
in the Chaaan River. Therefore, it is Technical Services' opinion that no
effluent limitations for N and P be written into the respective permits.
We do recommend, however, that some limited periodic monitoring of the
effluents of these facilities be undertaken.
I have attached a draft proposed finding relative to this matter. If you
have any questions, please let me know.

SUBJF.cr: Nutrient Limitations for:
West Point Pepperell. - Hertford County
Newsoms Sand and Gravel - Hertford County
Edenton Water Plant - Chowan County
Edenton Cotton Mills - Chawan County '
Regulation 15 NCAC 2B .0214(f) specifies that in waters classified as
nutrient sensitive, no increase in nutrients over background levels is
allowed. The only exception to this is where the Director finds that
there are mitigating factors as provided in (1) and (2) . In reference
to the subject facilities, I find that effluent limitations for nitrogen
and phosphorus are not required for these discharges due to the expected
low levels of nitrogen and phosphorus in these discharges.
Attached are copies of the wasteload allocations for those discharges.
