The Williamsburg Plant for Burlington Technologies weaves yarn into cloth, though no process wastewater is discharged from any of the outfalls. The facility has three permitted Outfalls: 001, 002 and 003. Outfall 001 discharges domestic wastewater after treatment by a package plant. Air Washer blowdown and stormwater are discharged through Outfall 002. Cooling Water blowdown is discharged through Outfall 003. Outfalls 001 and 002 discharge to an unnamed tributary (UT) to Buttermilk Creek. Outfall 003 discharges to a UT to Grays Branch. Both are considered zero flow streams in the Cape Fear River Basin. In 1997, the facility was required to perform an Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) in order to assess the present value cost (PVC) of reducing the impact on the receiving streams, both of which are zero flow streams. After discussions with the Winston-Salem Regional Office (WSRO), it was agreed that the most feasible alternative, an upgrade to the existing treatment plant, would only be implemented if the facility began to have difficult meeting the limits specified by the NPDES permit. Fact Sheet NPDES NC0001384 Renewal Page 1 APPLICATION REVIEW: The renewal application describes the treatment works as follows: Outfall 001: Domestic waste treated through a package system consisting of a bar screen, aeration basin, sludge digestion, clarifier, tablet chlorination system (includes chlorine contact chamber), tablet dechlorination and step aeration. Outfall 002: Air washer blowdown and stormwater, treated with sodium thiosulfate as needed for dechlorination. Outfall 003: Cooling Tower blowdown, treated with sodium thiosulfate as needed for dechlorination. DMR Review: DMRs from January 2010 to December 2012 were reviewed for all outfalls. Average monthly data for 001 is compiled in Table 1 below. Domestic flow from 001 averaged 0.0019 MGD with a maximum flow of 0.004 MGD. This flow was approximately the same as the discharge through 002 and 003, which averaged 0.0018 MGD each, and had a maximum value of 0.0050 and 0.0070 MGD respectively. Discharge from both 002 and 003 was usually consistent in volume from month to month, however, at the very low operating rate, the facility can go for months with one or more outfalls having no discharge. TRC from 002 and 003 is almost always below detection level. Outfall 002 had one reading of 15 µg/ L, which is below both the 17 µg/ L permit limit and the 50 µg/ L compliance level. Table 1: Summary of monthly average data for Outfall 001. Data extracted from DMRs from January 2010 to December 2012. Parameter Average Value Maximum Value Minimum Value Flow (MGD) 0.0019 0.004 0.0001 Temperature (°C) 15 29 4 TRC (mg/L) < 10 < 10 < 10 BOD (mg/L) 3.7 7.9 0.9 NH3 N (mg/L) 1.6 11.0 0.1 DO (mg/L) 7.0 11.0 6.3 Total Suspended Solids (mg/L) 10.3 103 2.0 Total Nitrogen (mg/L) 31.3 46.6 12.0 Total Phosphorus (mg/L) 3.9 8.2 1.9 Instream Data Review: The impact of the domestic waste discharge from 001 is assessed through instream monitoring of temperature and DO. Upstream/Downstream data for the unnamed tributary to Buttermilk Creek is summarized in Table 2. Data shows that downstream DO is less than upstream DO 73% of the time, even when Outfall 001 has not discharged for as long as 5 months. There was only one occasion on which the downstream DO value was lower than the instream DO standard of 5 mg/ L. On September 19, 2012 the downstream DO was 4.6 mg/ L., which is below the instream standard. However, this occurred during an extended period when there was no discharge from any outfall all month. The average change in temperature between the upstream and downstream portions of the stream was -0.4 °C. The average DO change was -0.4 mg/ L. Fact Sheet NPDES NC0001384 Renewal Page Table 2: Summary of monthly average data for Instream Data, UT to Buttermilk Creek. Data extracted from DMRs from January 2010 to December 2012. Parameter Average Upstream Value Average Downstream Value Percent Change ((D — U)/U) * 100% Temperature (°C) 15.6 15.2 -2.56 Dissolved Oxygen (mom) 7.9 7.5 -5.06 Reasonable Potential Analysis: Reasonable Potential Analysis was not appropriate for any of the pollutants monitored through this permit. Compliance: Compliance Evaluation Inspections have been conducted annually from 2008-2012. During the past 5 years (2008 - 2012), the facility received 7 NOVs for various problems: One Late/ Missing DMR violation in August 2010, TRC Reporting Frequency in August and September 2011, Flow Reporting Frequency in August and September 2011 and Fecal Coliform Daily Maximum violations in October 2008 and November 2012. PERMITTING STRATEGY: 1997 correspondence from the facility and recent discussions with the WSRO indicate that the facility will not yet be required to implement any of the upgrades specified by the 12/97 EAA. The facility was permitted and in operation when the receiving waters were reclassified as HQW, so it is Grandfathered at the original conditions. If the facility develops problems meeting the DO instream requirements, it can be required to upgrade treatment facilities as per the 12/97 EAA. Waste Load Allocation (WLA): The last waste load allocation was performed in 1992. It indicates that the only positive flow measurement is the average flow: 0.075-cfs. BOD, TSS, ammonia nitrogen, DO, fecal coliform and TRC are all limited in the present permit. Monitoring requirements are for temperature, Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus. No changes are proposed in the renewal permit. Zero Flow Policy: As per NPDES policy, the facility was required to perform an EAA in 1997. They were also given NH3- N limits of 2 mg/L for summer and 4 mg/L for winter. Unless the facility begins to violate the stream DO standard, more stringent BOD limits will not be implemented. The current limits on BOD and TSS are 30/30. Basis for Limits: • Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) limit in the permit is based on North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • BOD5 limits in the permit are based on requirements of 40 CFR 133.102. • Total Suspended Solids (TSS) limits in the permit are based on requirements of 40 CFR 133.102. • Ammonia limits in the permit are based on DWR evaluation of Best Available Technology (BAT) for minor facilities. • Dissolved Oxygen (DO) limit in the permit is based on North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • pH limit in the permit is based on North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • Fecal Coliform limit in the permit is based on North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200].

The facility operates under existing NPDES permit No. NC0001384. This permit is set to expire on May 31, 2011. This cover letter and attached NPDES Permit Application — Short Form C — Minor Industrial serves as the renewal application. Since the last permit, the treatment area has added a tablet dechlorination system. The facility was previously owned by Tietex and was purchased by Burlington Technologies over a year ago. There have been no additions to the facility that would modify the wastewater streams. The facility mainly discharges sanitary wastewater and utility wastewater. The wastewater treatment operation on the sanitary wastewater creates a small amount of sludge. The sludge handled using the following process. The sludge is initially treated on -site using aerobic digestion. Infrequently, every 1 to 2 years, the sludge is removed from the treatment system and shipped off -site for disposal. If you have any questions regarding this renewal application, I can be contacted at (336) 585- 2320. Sincerely, Mark Morgan / Plant Manager Williamsburg Plant
