Dear Mr. Gleason:
(Office of 'Watrr/Daste
Water ivrrattnrnt '^ttprrintrniaent
In response to your letter of March 21, 1984, the following status
report is submitted for vour consideration:
1. In November, 1982, the City requested the reissuance of an
NPDES permit for the Water Plant discharge, with the same interim
limits contained in the previously held permit which had expired.
On January 20, 1983, The Division. of Environmental Management
advertised it's intent to issue this permit and subsequently did
so on March 1, 1983.
2. On February 21, 1983, the City received the Special Order by
Consent. The Council approved the SOC on. March 21, 1983 and the
Environmental Management Commission approved the document on
May 12, 1983.
On February 1, 1983, within ten (10) days from the date of
advertisement of intent to issue the permit, the City solicited
proposals from five (5) engineering firms for (A) Pre -Design
system selection and cost estimates, (B) preparation of plans
and specifications and, (C) on -site construction inspection and
project coordination. A period of thirty (30) days was allowed
for proposal submittal and interview before selection of the
engineers. The engineering contract was awarded on May 2, 1983 to
Peirson and Whitman, Inc.. The contract period for pre -design
study and preparation of plans and specifications was one hundred
eighty (180) days, to be completed December 2, 1983, however,
due to questions raised during this period concerning the capability

Mr. D. Rex Gleason, P.E.
NC Div. of Environmental Management

Page ......... 2
of several systems under consideration to dewater the alum sludge
to a truckable cake, and the type and amount of chemical addition
required for sludge conditioning prior to dewatering, it became
evident that on -site pilot testing of the selected system was
necessary before the design could be finalized. In November, 1983,
the Council authorized the on -site testing which was performed
during the week of December 7, 1983.
4. The on -site tests revealed that the sludge was very difficult
to dewater and required a substantial dosage of both polymer and
lime, prior to dewatering. An extensive redesign of the chemical
storage facilities and the chemical feed system was required prior
to final plans and specifications which have now been completed
and are to be submitted to both the Division of Environmental
Management and the Division of Health Services immediately for
review/approval.
5. At this time, it appears that the earliest time in which
construction funds can be made available would be in the x'y 1984-
85 budget which would begin July 1, 1984, however, the agency
review period and any changes to the plans and specifications
required as a result of these reviews prior to approval would
probably delay the advertising of the project for bids beyond
the July 1, 1984 date. The estimated total cost of the project
is $1.7 million dollars and the estimated construction time from
issuance of the notice to proceed is three hundred sixty-five
(365) calendar days due to the long delivery schedule of the
dewatering equipment.
6. It is obvious, from the above data, that the City will be
unable to meet the compliance date of October 1, 1984 as specified
in the SOC. The City has made every reasonable effort to expedite
the project, but due to the difficult nature of the alum sludge,
and, the fact that the realiability of the daily operation of the
Water Plant is very dependent upon the ability of the sludge dis-
posal process to operate under a wide range of loading conditions,
it was imperative that an in-depth study of the available dewater-
ing systems be performed. Pilot testing of the selected system
revealed the necessity of adding lime storage and feed equipment
to assure reliability, and made considerable re -design a necessity.
Please be advised that the City has not intentionally delayed the
project and that every effort is being made to receive bids on
the project at the earliest possible date. We hereby request

Mr. D. Rex Gleason, P.E.
NC Div. of Environmental Management

the Division of Environmental Management to consider an amend-
ment to the SOC, amending the compliance date to October 1, 1985
in order to allow for the three hundred sixty-five (365) day
construction schedule and start-up of the equipment.
If any further information is required, please let us know.

a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one -
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.
M5

Part I
Permit No. NC
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the
Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal
to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva-
lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of
the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
(1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
(2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
(3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.
4. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC
regulations published pursuant to N. C. G. S. 143-215.63 et seq, The
Water and Air Quality Reporting Act, and to regulations published pursuant
to Section 304(g), 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,
As Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136.
5. Recording Results
For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of
this permit, the permittee shall record the following information:
a. The exact place, date, and time of sampling;
b. The dates the analyses were performed; and
c. The person(s) who performed the analyses.

6. Additional Monitoring by Permittee
If the permittee monitors any pollutant at the location(s) designated
herein more frequently than required by this permit, using approved
analytical methods as specified above, the results of such monitoring
shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the values required
in the Monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM No. MR 1.0, 1.1, and 1.4)
Such increased frequency shall also be indicated. The DEM may require
more frequent monitoring or the monitoring of other pollutants not
required in this permit by written notification.
7. Records Retention
All records and information resulting from the monitoring activities
required by this Permit including all records of analyses performed and
calibration and maintenance of instrumentation and recordings from
continuous monitoring instrumentation shall be retained for a minimum of
three (3) years, or longer if requested by the Division of Environmental
Management or the Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency.

A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1. Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms and
conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant identified
in this permit more frequently than or at a level in excess of that
authorized shall constitute a violation of the permit. Any anticipated
facility expansions, production increases, or process modifications which
will result in new, different, or increased discharges of pollutants must
be reported by submission of a new NPDES application or, if such changes
will not violate the effluent limitations specified in this permit, by
notice to the DEM of such changes. Following such notice, the permit
may be modified to specify and limit any pollutants not previously limited.
2. Non compliance Notification
If, for any reason, the permittee does not comply with or will be unable
to comply with any effluent limitation specified in this permit, the per-
mittee shall provide the Division of Environmental Management with the
following information, in writing, within five (5) days of becoming aware
of such condition:
a. A description of the discharge and cause of noncompliance; and
b. The period of noncompliance, including exact dates and times; or,
if not corrected; the anticipated time the noncompliance is expected
to continue, and steps being taken to reduce, eliminate and prevent
recurrence of the noncomplying discharge.
3. Facilities Operation
The permittee shall at all times maintain in good working order and
operate as efficiently as possible all treatment or control facilities
or systems installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with
the terms and conditions of this permit.
4. Adverse Impact
The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any adverse
impact to navigable waters resulting from noncompliance with any effluent
limitations specified in this permit, including such accelerated or
additional monitoring as necessary to determine the nature and impact of
the noncomplying discharge.
5. Bypassing
Any diversion from or bypass of facilities necessary to maintain compliance
with the terms and conditions of this permit is prohibited, except (i) where
M 8 & 17

unavoidable to prevent loss of life or severe property damage, or
(ii) where excessive storm drainage or runoff would damage any facilities
necessary for complaince with the effluent limitations and prohibitions
of this permit. All permittees who have such sewer bypasses or overflows
of this discharge shall submit, not later than six months from the date
of issue of this permit, detailed data or engineering estimates which
identify:
a. The location of each sewer system bypass or overflow;
b. The frequency, duration and quantity of flow from each sewer
system bypass or overflow.
This requirement is waived where infiltration/inflow analyses are
scheduled to be performed as part of an Environmental Protection Agency
facilities planning project.
6. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the
course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from
entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United States.
7. Power Failures
The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards to
prevent the discharge of untreated of inadequately treated wastes
during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power
sources, standby generators or retention of inadequately treated efflu-
ent. Should the treatment works not include the above capabilities at
time of permit issuance, the permittee must furnish within six months
to the permitting authority, for approval, an implementation schedule
for their installing, or documentation demonstrating that such measures
are not necessary to prevent discharge of untreated or inadequately
treated wastes. Such documentation shall include frequency and duration
of power failures and an estimate of retention capacity of untreated
effluent.
8. Onshore or Offshore Construction
This permit does not authorize or approve the construction of any onshore
or offshore physical structures or facilities or the undertaking of any
work in any navigable waters.

PART I
Permit No. NC
10. Expiration of Permit
Permittee is not authorized to discharge after the expiration date.
In order to receive authorization to discharge beyond the expiration
date, the permittee shall submit such information, forms, and fees as
are required by the agency authorized to issue permits no later than
180 days prior to the expiration date. Any discharge without a permit
after the expiration will subject the permittee to enforcement proce-
dures as provided in N. C. G. S. 143-215.6, and 33 USC 1251 et seq.
11. Industrial Pretreatment Standards
Permittee shall require any industrial dischargers into the permitted
system to meet Federal Pretreatment Standards (40 CFR, Part4o3 )
promulgated in response to Section 307(b) of the Act. The permittee
shall provide semi-annual reports to the permitting agency regarding the
pre-treatment requirements which have been imposed on each major contri-
buting industry and the results achieved therefrom. Other information
may be needed regarding new industrial discharges and this will be
requested from the permittee after the permitting agency has received
notice of the new industrial discharge.
A major contributing industry is one that: (1) has a flow of 50,000
gallons or more per average work day; (b) has a flow greater than five
percent of the flow carried by the municipal system receiving the waste;
(c) has in its waste a toxic pollutant in toxic amounts as defined in
standards issued under Section 307(a) of the Act; (d) has significant
impact either singly or in combination with other contributing industries,

PART III
Permit No. NC
PART III OTHER REQUIREMENTS
A. Requirements for Effluent Limitations on Pollutants Attributable to
Industrial Users
1. Effluent limitations from this discharger are listed in Part I of this permit.
It is apparent that other pollutants attributable to inputs from major
contributing industries using the municipal system may also be present in the
permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information becomes
available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be
revised to specify effluent limitations for any or all of such other pollutants
in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality standards.
2. Under no circumstances shall the permittee allow introduction of the following
wastes into the waste treatment system:
a. Wastes which create a fire or explosion hazard in the treatment works.
b. Wastes which will cause corrosive structural damage to treatment works.
C. Solid or viscous substances in amounts which cause obstructions to the
flow in sewers or interference with the proper operation of the treatment
works.
d. Wastewaters at a flow rate and/or pollutant discharge rate which is
excessive over relatively short time periods so as to cause a loss of
treatment efficiency.
e. Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the treatment
works resulting in interference but in no case heat in such quantities
that the temperature at the treatment works influent exceeds 400C (1040F)
unless the works are designed to accomodate such heat. (After August 25, 1981)
3. With regard to the effluent requirements listed in Part I of this permit,
it may be necessary for the permittee to supplement the requirements of the
Federal Pretreatment Standards (40 CFR, Part 403) to ensure compliance by
the permittee with all applicable effluent limitations. Such actions by
the permittee may be necessary regarding some or all of the major contri-
buting industries discharging to the municipal system.
The permittee shall require each major contributing industry subject to
pre-treatment standards or any other applicable requirements promulgated
pursuant to Section 307 of the Act to submit to the permittee periodic
notice (at intervals not to exceed 9 months) regarding specific actions taken
to achieve full compliance with the requirements of Section 307. Starting
on the permittee shall submit semi-annually to the permit
issuing authority a report summarizing the progress of all known major
contributing industries subject to the requirements of Section 307 towards
full compliance with such requirements. Such report shall include at
least the following information:
M 13

PART T1I
Permit No. NC
a. A narrative summary of actions taken by the permittee to ensure
that all major contributing industries comply with the requirements
of Section 307.
b. The number of major contributing industries using the treatment
works, divided into SIC group categories.
c. The number of major contributing industries in full compliance
with the requirements of Section 307, or not subject to these
requirements (e.g., discharge only compatible pollutants).
d. A list identifying by name those major contributing industries
presently in violation of the requirements of Section 307.
4. Immediately upon issuance of this permit, the permittee shall establish
and implement a procedure to obtain from all major contributing indus-
tries specific information on the quality and quantity of effluents intro-
duced by such industrial users. The following information shall be
reported to the permitting agency on a quarterly basis beginning
; quarterly reports reflecting no change from the previous quarter
may simply relate this fact, without submitting repetitive data.
a. Section IV, Standard Form A shall be completed and submitted for
each major contributing industry.
b. Information on the municipal facility as a whole is to be reported
on the monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM - No. MR 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and
1.3).
Once the specific nature of industrial contributions has been identified,
data collection and reporting requirements may be levied for other
parameters in addition to those included on Form (DEM No. 1.0, 1.1,
1.2, and 1.3).
5. Based on the information regarding industrial inputs reported by the
permittee pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the permittee will be
notified by the permitting authority of the availability of industrial
effluent guidelines on which to calculate allowable inputs of incompatible
pollutants based on BPT for each industry group. Copies of guidelines
will be provided as appropriate. Not later than 120 days following
receipt of this information, the permittee shall submit to the permitting
authority calculations reflecting allowable inputs from each major con-
tributing industry. The permittee shall also require all such major
contributing industries to implement necessary pre-treatment requirements
(as provided for in 40 CFR, Part 403), providing the permitting authority
with notifications of specific actions taken in this regard. At that time,
the permit may be amended to reflect the municipal facility's effluent
requirements for incompatible pollutants.

9. Location of Nearest Dwelling: There are no dwellings located within 500
feet of the facilities.
10. Receiving Stream: Morrison Creek
a. Classification: C
b. Minimum 7-Day, 10-Year Discharge at Site: 7.6 cfs
c. River Basin and Sub -Basin No.: Yadkin 03-07-06
PART II - DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED/EXISTING TREATMENT FACILITIES
1. Existing Facilities: At present this facility discharges into the City's
Fourth Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant. The wastewater is causing the
Wastewater Trea tment Plant to violate the NPDES Permit. The City proposes
to disconnect the water plant wastewater and discharge it directly to the
stream as was done prior to connection to the Fourth Creek Wastewater
Treatment Plant. This disconnection will allow the Wastewater Treatment
Plant to comply with permitted effluent limits.
2. Proposed Modifications: The applicant proposes to discharge basically
untreated water plant wastewater under interim limits as specified in
previous SOC's. This discharge will continue until such time as facilities
can be constructed to treat the wastewater to acceptable quality to comply
with NPDES Permit final limitations.

PART III - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1, Performance Evaluation: Previous self -monitoring data shows the following
discharge characteristics:
Parameter
Flow
PH
Settleable Matter
Turbi di ty
TSS
Concentration
0.056 MGD
6.7-7.7 S.U.
0.2-38 mg/l
49-730 NTUS
64-152 mg/l
2. 0 & M Evaluation: These facilities and the Fourth Creek Wastewater
Treatment Plant appeared to be well operated and maintained.
3. Recommendations and/or Special Conditions: It is recommended that an NPDES
Permit be issued since the impact would appear to be less ;wt the proposed
r;)Int of discharge than the effect of continued discharge into the Fourth
Creek Sewer System..
An SOC should be drafted setting forth interim effluent limitations and
a time schedule for compliance.

3. Definitions
a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one -
month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period.
b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the
arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a
one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria
is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period.
c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the
24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the
arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar
month.
d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the
summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual
values.
M5

Part I
Page of
Permit No. NC
e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the
Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal
to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva-
lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of
the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following:
(1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected
at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited
in proportion to flow.
(2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions
collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional
to the flow.
(3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over
a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow.
g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent
portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be
collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge.
4. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC
regulations published pursuant to N. C. G. S. 143-215.63 et seq, The
Water and Air Quality Reporting Act, and to regulations published pursuant
