Dear Mr. Finley:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for
renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached
NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements
of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement
between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated
October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
This final permit includes the following changes from the draft permit
sent to you on May 22, 2013:
> Based upon the comments submitted by your consultant (Heather Adams of
Envirolink, Inc.), the wording of Part I. A. (5) has been revised. One
report shall be submitted no later than July 30, 2014, documenting the
impact of the proposed operational changes to achieve consistent
compliance with the permit's BOD limits.
> Based upon the documents submitted by Ms. Adams, Part I. A. (6) has
been deleted.
> Based upon the comments and data submitted by Ms. Adams, Part I. A. (7)
has been revised. The "Industrial Waste Survey" shall be completed by
each new occupant within 60 days of occupancy. This requirement was
retained so that both you and the Division have proof that occupants
are not adding industrial wastes to the collection system, and also
that the existing documents regarding collection system use have been
distributed.
Please note that Swift Creek is listed as an impaired waterbody on the
North Carolina 303(d) Impaired Waters List. Addressing impaired waters is a
high priority with the Division; instream data will continue to be
evaluated. If there is noncompliance with this permit's effluent limits and
stream impairment can be attributed to your facility, then mitigative
measures may be required.

A. (2) CALCULATION OF TOTAL NITROGEN LOADS
1. The Permittee shall calculate monthly and annual TN Loads as follows:
(1) Monthly TN Load (pounds/month) = TN x TMF x 8.34
where:
TN = the average Total Nitrogen concentration (mg/L)
of the composite samples collected during the
month
TMF = the Total Monthly Flow of wastewater discharged
during the month (MG/month)
8.34= conversion factor, from (mg/L x MG) to pounds
(2) Annual'TN Load (pounds/year) = Sum of the 12 Monthly TN Loads for the
calendar year
2. The Permittee shall report monthly Total Nitrogen results (mg/L and
pounds/month) in the appropriate discharge monitoring report for each month
and shall report each year's annual results (pounds/year) with the December
report for that year.
A. (3) TOTAL NITROGEN ALLOCATIONS
a. The following table lists the Total Nitrogen (TN) allocation(s) assigned to,
acquired by, or transferred to the Permittee in accordance with the Neuse River
nutrient management rule (T15A NCAC 02B.0234) and the status of each as of
permit issuance. For compliance purposes, this table does not supercede any TN
limit(s) established elsewhere in this permit or in the NPDES permit of a
compliance association of which the Permittee is a Co-Permittee Member.

Subject: RE: Pope Industrial Park Draft Permit Comments NC0060526
Charles,
These conditions have been included in previous permits. A review of the file showed that in 2005 violations may have
been attributed to the discharge of chemicals by tenants and possibly unauthorized discharges to the system by non -
tenants.
A note to the file on 1-4-06 included contract painters may be pouring paint/chemicals down drains. Bar screen solids
appear like latex paint. Chemical odor also at bar screen.
A response from Pope dated 2-1-08 stated materials for general cleaning are contributing to the low pH's at the WWTP.
Discussed during the 5-29-13 CEI was the possibility that septage haulers could be illegally dumping into the collection
system at remote locations on the property. It would be difficult to stop this practice.
Implementation of these conditions would be beneficial for the WWTP. Inhibition and pass -through could be prevented,
and sludge quality could be preserved.
Let me know if you have questions.

Subject: Comments to Draft NPDES Permit NC0060526
Dear Mr. Weaver:
On behalf of Pope Industrial Park, Envirolink Inc. appreciates the opportunity to
provide comments on the Draft NPDES Permit NC0060526 issued on May 22, 2013.
Please find enclosed our comments to the following items:
Permit Condition: The revised Total Residual Chlorine compliance level has been added
to section A. (1).
Comment: No comments at this time.
Permit Condition(s):
the submission of two Operations and Maintenance Reports, Communications Plan and
Industrial Waste Surveys.
A () (2) //G11ci` t4
o 5 pe
ew conditions A. (5), A. (6), and A. (7) have been added, requiring
Comment: In commenting on these conditions, we referred to NC DWQ Inspection
Reports, and 2 years self -monitoring data (May 2011-May 2013). A review of
compliance history does indicate repeated violations associated with the summer 5-day
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) but does not indicate any violations for ammonia
(NH3-N). Condition A. (5) references non-compliance for 5-day BOD and NH3-N. Please
note that the facility has been in substantial compliance with NH3-N.
It appears that the conditions A. (5), A. (6) and A. (7) are derived from and consistent
with a Pretreatment Program. While the name of the development references
"Industrial", it does not treat industrial waste. The following comments are meant to
address each condition individually.

Condition A. (5) Operations and Maintenance Report. Please note that a review of NC
DWQ inspection reports along with on -site conversation with NC DWQ inspectors have
indicated that the facility is being properly operated and maintained. Regardless, we
concur that a review of the facility O&M along with reporting of such to NC DWQ is
warranted. We request revision of condition to the following:
A. (5) Operations and Maintenance Report
The Permittee shall provide a written report within 360 days of permit issuance
documenting impact of the operation and maintenance changes to the effluent BOD
quality. The report should document BOD violations, if any, along with the cause and
actions taken to prevent further violations.
We feel that this modification is warranted provided that we have provided a report on
proposed operational changes with this submittal (Exhibit 1) and that the facility has
been in compliance with the permitted effluent limits for ammonia.
Condition A. (6) Communications Plan. We do not understand the reason for this
condition. As indicated in Table 1, the facility only receives domestic wastewater.
While there is the possibility of illegal dumping into the collection system from outside
sources, there are no kitchens, process wastewater or other sources of wastewater that
would justify such a condition. As there is no basis for this condition, please remove
this requirement.
Condition A. (7) Industrial Waste Survey. As mentioned above, while the word
"Industrial" is included in the name of the development, it does not receive any
industrial waste. Industrial Waste Surveys are typical of facilities with a Pretreatment
Program; however, a Pretreatment Program is not applicable in this situation and
Industrial Waste Survey's would not aid in achieving compliance. As there is no basis for
a Pretreatment Program or this condition, please remove this requirement.

Exhibit 1-Proposed Operation and Maintenance Changes for Pope Industrial Park
NC0060526
Since a majority of the BOD exceedances were related to clogged sludge return lines, it
is recommended that the Operator clean the return lines at a frequency of at least
monthly. As the monitoring data is evaluated, the Operations Staff can increase the
frequency if needed.
To ensure that illegal waste dumping is not occurring, it is recommended that the

City of Raleigh sewer lines may be closer to the facility since the last permit issuance. The facility should be required to
investigate theyossibilitY of connecting to sewer and eliminate the discharges
The RRO recommends the permit be reissued with the requirement that the facility be required to investigate the possibility of
connecting to municipal sewer and eliminate the discharge. Changes in BIMS are needed as noted in the 'Effluent limits' section
and 'equipment description' section above. Part A (5) Industrial Waste Survey and part A (6) Communications Plan in the current
permit should remain in the reissued permit.
Due to limit violations observed during the last permit cycle (see attached data) the following Operations and
Maintenance Reporting is recommended to be included as a condition of this permit:
Operations and Maintenance Report
Provide a written account within 180 days of permit issuance to address needed operational and/or maintenance
improvements necessary to prevent violations of BOD, NH3 limits.
Within 360 days of permit issuance, detail in writing what changes have been implemented to affect improvements
in treatment unit operations. This report must show compliance trends regarding BOD, NH3. Reports must be
submitted to Raleigh Regional Office — Surface Water Protection Section.
