Dear Mr. Smart:
Enclosed you will find a copy of the Compliance Biomonitoring Inspection report
for the inspection that I conducted on February 22 and 24, 2011. The inspection included
the same objectives as that of a routine Compliance Evaluation Inspection plus a
sampling inspection that included an Aquatic Toxicity (AT) test that evaluated the
biological effect of the facility's discharge on test organisms. As part of the inspection a
tour of the Wastewater Treatment Plant was conducted. All requirements, observations,
and a suggestion are in the Part D Summary of Findings/Comments section of this
inspection report. On February. 22 and February 24, Whole Effluent Toxicity samples
were collected from the Burlington Outfall 001 24-hour composite sampler for use in a
chronic Ceriodaphnia dubia pass/fail toxicity test. These aquatic toxicity samples were
divided by the "true split" method and were sent to two Whole Effluent Toxicity testing
laboratories. One split sample was sent to your commercial laboratory (Tritest), and the
other split sample was sent to the Division of Water Quality Aquatic Toxicity Laboratory,
(located on Reedy Creek Road in Raleigh). The results of both laboratories were in
agreement: the Whole Effluent Toxicity (at a dilution of 7.0%) resulted in a "PASS".
Test results for these samples indicated that the effluent would not be predicted to have
water quality impacts on receiving water. The same effluent 24-hour composite sample
that was collected by Burlington at Outfall 001 on February 22 was also analyzed for the
following parameters (which are currently in your NPDES Permit): Biochemical Oxygen
Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Suspended Solids (TSS),
Ammonia Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus, and Total Nitrogen (NO2 + NO3 + TKN). These
chemistry analyses were sent to the Division of Water Quality Chemistry Laboratory
(located on Reedy Creek Road in Raleigh), and the results of these parameters were as
follows: Biochemical Oxygen Demand = 26 mg/L, :Chemical Oxygen Demand = 140
mg/L, Total Suspended Solids = 65, NH3 as N = 0.03 mg/L, Total Kjeldahl N = 4.4 mg/L,
NO2 + NO3 = 7.2 mg/L, and Phosphorus = 0.60 mg/L.

The previous Compliance Evaluation Inspection report coversheet (dated
December 7, 2009) gave this facility permission to sample by the constant time/constant
, volume method. During this CEI inspection, I understood from the two back-up ORCs
that the facility has chosen to set the 24-hour composite sampler to the flow proportional
sample mode. Both sampling methods are acceptable for this facility: the flow
proportional method and the constant time/constant volume method. For either method
that you choose, please review the 24-hour composite sample definition that is found in
the NPDES Permit, Part II, Section A. Definitions, Composite Sample, and please ensure
that the sampler is set up accordingly.
During the inspection, I noticed corrosion on #2 clarifier catwalk. As a
suggestion, by painting metal parts that are showing corrosion, it may be possible to
prevent further corrosion that may eventually jeopardize the integrity of the structure.
As a safety item, corrosion was noted on the chlorine gas cylinder joint connection. As a
suggestion, when checking for leaks after rotating an empty gas cylinder for a full one,
please do not put ammonia liquid on the fittings, because chlorine gas leakage will react
with moisture to form hydrochloric acid (and this will cause corrosion to the metal).
Please keep the parts of the chlorinator dry. At regular intervals, please check for
chlorine leaks at all gas pipe joints, both inside and outside of the chlorinator. Please
review the maintenance section of the Sacramento manual "Operation of Wastewater
Treatment Plants" for information about chlorinators.
Please send this Office a written response to the following three requirements,
due by April 29, 2011:
1. The sample storage refrigerator (located in the WWTP laboratory) did not have a
thermometer that measured in the range that is needed. Please monitor and
document the temperature in the laboratory refrigerator on a frequency that will
ensure that the temperature is <6 °C at times that Outfall 001 samples are stored
in the refrigerator. Ideally, the refrigerator temperature would be monitored and
recorded on a daily basis. At a minimum, please record the refrigerator
temperature on the days that the refrigerator is used for Outfall 001 sample
storage. Samples should be collected, transported, and stored at the official
storage temperature requirement that is published in 40 CFR Part 136, Table II
(Required Containers, Preservation Techniques, and Holding Times). The
acceptable temperature range is 0 to 6 degrees Centigrade; however, the sample
must not be frozen, especially for a biological sample. The intent of cooling
samples to below 6 degrees Centigrade is to minimize any biological and
chemical reactions such that the integrity of the sample is not compromised.

2. In the future, please report the "<" sign on DMRs, along with the results of all
applicable analyses results; this said because the past DMRs did not reflect that
the results were below the minimum reportable limit. If you have any questions,
please phone Mark Brantley at this Office [phone].
3. Please accurately record the times that the field parameters (DO, Temperature,
Chlorine, pH, and Conductivity) are collected; and, please record the times that
the field parameter analyses are performed. Please do not rely on memory for
estimating these times.
On the day of this inspection, the facility appeared to be in compliance with the
conditions of Burlington's NPDES permit NC0043320. I appreciate the time and
professional courtesy that was extended by you, Alex Leonard, and H.T. Davidson during
the inspection. If you have any questions or comments concerning this report, please
feel free to contact me at [phone].

Disinfection -Gas
If yes, then when was the RMP last updated?
Comment: Because domestic wastewater also flowed to the
WWTP, chlorine gas was
continuously applied near the production plant, at a location that was prior to the
headworks of the VW TP. Corrosion was noted in the chorine cylinder building, and on
the fittings of the metal gas cylinder joint attachment . When checking for Teaks, after
rotating an empty chlorine gas cylinder for a full cylinder, please do not put ammonia
liquid on the fittings because any chlorine gas leakage in the presence of moisture will
cause corrosion. Chlorine gas reacts with water (in the ammonia water) to form
hydrochloric acid. Please keep the parts of the chlorinator dry. Please check for
chlorine gas leaks at regular intervals at all gas pipe joints, both inside and outside of
the chlorinators.

Incubator (Fecal Coliform) set to 44.5 degrees Celsius+/- 0.2 degrees?
Incubator (BOD) set to 20.0 degrees Celsius +/- 1.0 degrees?
Comment: The sample storage refrigerator (located in the WWTP laboratory) did not
have a thermometer that measured in the range that is needed. Please monitor and
document the temperature in the laboratory refrigerator on a frequency that will ensure
that the. temperature is equal to or Tess than 6 °C and greater than zero degrees Celsius
at times that Outfall 001 samples are stored in the refrigerator. Ideally, the refrigerator
temperature would be monitored and recorded on a daily basis.

Cordova, NC JUN 0 1 2011
NPDES Permit No. NC0043320 DENR-FAYETTEVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
During the inspection on February 22 and 24, 2011 the following items where noted.
1. The refrigerator located in the WWTP laboratory did not have a thermometer that measured the
temperature in the range needed. During periods when the samples off the 001 Outfall are stored
in the laboratory refrigerator the temperature is to be monitored and documented. During the period
when 001 Outfall samples are stored in the refrigerator samples the temperature in the refrigerator
should range from 0-6 degrees Centigrade; however the samples shall not be frozen.
Response:
We replaced the thermometer in the Laboratory Refrigeration unit..The range of the present
thermometer runs from 15 degree C to -5 degree C. We will monitor and record temperature
in the laboratory refrigeration unit before we store 001 Outfall water samples and we will record the
temperature when we remove the samples.
2. In the future, please indicate the "<" sign on DMR report, along with the results of
all applicable analyses results.
Response:
We will show the less than sign "<" as indicated on any results we receive from
an outside laboratory.
3. Please accurately record the time that field parameters (DO, Temperature, Chlorine, PH
1

r : s
and Conductivity) are collected and record the time that the field parameters analyses
are preformed.
Response:
As requested we will document the time field samples are collected and when the
the Field parameters analyses are preformed.
