DEFINITIONS 1. Permit Issuing Authority: The Director of the Division of Water Quality. 2. Division: The Division of Water Quality in the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources. 3. EMC: North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. 4. Permittee: The entity who obtains coverage under this General Permit by subsequent issuance of a "Certificate of Coverage" by the Division. 5. Act or "the Act": The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. 6. Concentration Measurements a. Monthly Average Concentration: The sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. b. Monthly Average Concentration for Fecal Coliform: The geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the permit. c. Daily Maximum Concentration: The concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as "Daily Maximum" in Part I of the permit. 7. Grab Samples: Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. 8. Calculations a. Geometric Mean: The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent 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). 9. Hazardous Substance: Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. 10.Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. 11. Bypass: The intentional diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility (including the collection system). The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. Page 3 of 11 Pages General Permit NCG550000' 12. Severe property damage: Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. 13. Upset: An exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology-based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation.

This will serve as your application for renewal of your permit coverage. The application must be completed and returned with the required information by February 01,2002 in order to assure continued coverage under the general permit.There is no renewal fee associated with this process. Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least$250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request.

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 indi- vidual values. 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 equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the indi- vidual values.

TAYLOR TAYLOR RESIDENCE (TONY L. ) 4413 KNIGHTWOOD DRIVE GASTONIA, NC 28054 Subject: NPDES PERMIT NO. NC0055441 GASTON COUNTY Dear Permittee: The subject permit issued on 12/17/87 expires on 11/30/92. North Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143-215. 1(c) requires that an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration date. As of the date of this letter, the Division of Environmental Management had not received an application for renewal. If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the permit's expiration date, or if continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be allowed to expire. A renewal request must be submitted no later than 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date. Operation of the waste treatment works or continuation of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215. 1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration will result in a civil assessment of at least $300.00; larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request. A renewal application shall consist of a letter requesting permit renewal along with the appropriate completed and signed application form (copy attached), submitted in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of the North Carolina Administrative Code (15 NCAC) Subchapter 2H .0105(a). Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a priority pollutant analysis in accordance with Part 122.21. A processing fee must be submitted with the application. In addition to penalties referenced above, a permit renewal request received after the expiration date will be considered as a new application and will require the higher application fee. Attached is a copy of the fee schedule from 15 NCAC 2B.0105(b) . The application processing fee is based on the design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the first five categories of facilities. Presently, no facility is allowed to submit a fee for the general permits listed in the schedule since the Environmental Protection Agency has not approved the State of North Carolina's general permit. If the facility covered by this permit contains some type of treatment works, a narrative description of the sludge management plan must be submitted with the application for renewal. The Environmental Management Commission adopted revised rules on October 1, 1990 (attached), requiring the payment of an annual fee for most permitted facilities. You will be billed separately for that fee (if applicable), after your permit is approved. The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application, and appropriate fee should be sent to: Permits and Engineering Unit Division of Environmental Management Post Office Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535 The check should be made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as DEHNR.
