Dear Mr. McCaskill:
The Division has modified the permit in accordance with the May 2, 2000, settlement
meeting. The changes include modification of the sampling frequency to require annual
monitoring. As discussed at the meeting samples may be obtained anytime during the
calendar year, with the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) due every year on January 30th for
the previous years monitoring.
Attached is the NPDES permit No NC0081957 issued June 19, 2000, based on your
March 1, 1999 application and addendums. 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 US Environmental Protection Agency dated December 6, 1983.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are
unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty
(30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition,
conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of
Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such
demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division
may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the
legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or
permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any other
Federal or Local governmental permit that may be required.

Dear Mr. McCaskill:
The Division has reviewed the Yadkin Inc. comments received February 1, 2000 in response to the draft
NPDES permit. The Division has considered the concerns raised and has modified the permit in
accordance with current Division policy, all responses to concerns and revisions made to draft permit,
NC0081957, are explained below:
Comment #1: Yadkin Inc. request clarification regarding the Corrective Action Letter related to the
discharge of sump water.
Comment #2: Yadkin Inc. request clarification on the basis for discharge limits during both active and
passive discharge of the sump water.
Response to Comments 1 and 2: To clarify, the Corrective Action Letter addresses the situation where
active pumping is used to remove sump water prior to discharging to a surface water body. Under normal
operating conditions were sump water is passively discharging to the Yadkin River, the limitations and
monitoring requirements stipulated on page A(2) for outfall 003 shall be followed.
The basis for the limitations stipulated in the Corrective Action Letter are as follows: The limitations
stipulated for lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Zinc, and Copper represent the r the Final Acute Values.
These limitations were derived from the criteria developed by the EPA for protection of aquatic
organisms to acute toxicity resulting from exposure to these toxicants.
The PCB limitation was derived from the chronic standard established by the North Carolina
Environmental commission. The Division has taken an environmentally conservative position by
applying this chronic standard as an acute standard, not taking dilution into consideration. The reason for
implementing the standard in this manner is the fate of PCBs in the environment. PCBs in soil and water
are extremely slow to degradeYith no known processes other than slow degradation by microbial
breakdown. Any PCBs discharged to the river are likely to be transported downriver or deposited onto
the sediment at the bottom of the river where they are likely to remain and accumulate.
The Yadkin River at the Falls Powerhouse has a classification of WS-IV and B CA. This classifications
resulted because this reach of the Yadkin River is used for both water supply and primary recreation.

Because there is a high risk of human exposure, the Division has used an environmentally conservative
approach to establishing the conditions under which the discharge may occur.
Comment #3: The Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page A(1) only references outfalls 001, 002 and
005, but does not include cooling water outfalls 006 and 007.
Response: The outfalls referenced on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page A(1) in the draft
permit, represent the actual physical outfalls present at the facility. The final permit has been modified to
include outfalls 006 and 007 this will to allow Yadkin Inc. to obtain samples at a location other than at the
actual outfall, since sample retrieval at the outfall is not practical.
Comment #4: Clarification of the pH monitoring requirement, since Yadkin Inc. does not add
any chemical additives to the source water.
Response: The hydrogen ion content of water is considered a generic measurement of water quality and
as such is included as a condition of the general permit for hydroelectric facilities. Since the conditions of
the general permit are considered minimum requirements, the semi-annual monitoring of pH, for outfalls
001, 002, 005, 006 and 007, and the quarterly monitoring of outfall 003, will remain as a condition for
this permit.
Comment #5: No monitoring frequencies for pH on the page A(2).
Response: This was an oversight and the final permit has been corrected to include quarterly pH
monitoring of water discharged through outfall 003.
Comment #6: Clarification of the temperature monitoring requirement. The maximum temperature
change across the generator is 25 °C with a ratio of cooling water discharge to generator discharge of
1:30,000. Therefore, the worst case temperature rise of the Yadkin River due to cooling water discharge
would be 0.0083 °C, assuming an ambient water temperature of 20 °C.
Response: As with pH, temperature is considered a generic measurement of water quality and as such is
included as a condition of the general permit for hydroelectric facilities. Since the conditions of the
general permit are considered minimum requirements, the semi-annual monitoring of temperature will
remain as a condition for this permit.
Comment #7: Yadkin Inc. request clarification as to the basis for establishing discharge limits for oil
and grease at outfall 003.
Response: The Narrows Powerhouse, like most hydroelectric facilities, incorporates lubrication into the
routine maintenance for the facility. Because lubrication is common to hydroelectric facilities an oil and
grease limit has been included as a condition of the general permit for hydroelectric facilities. Since the
conditions of the general permit are considered minimum requirements, the oil and grease limit for outfall
003 will remain in the permit.
Comment #8: The boiler plate language relating to increases in stream temperature on the Effluent
Limitations and Monitoring Requirements Page A(1) needs to be prefaced with a footnote that instream
monitoring is not required.
Response: The intent of this limitation is not to require instream monitoring of temperature for reporting
purposes. As with all limited and monitored parameters the required sampling location is specified in the
Yadkin, Inc.
Permit No. NC0081957
Narrows Powerhouse
Page 3
permit. Please note that the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements Page specifies that
temperature monitoring be conducted on the effluent and does not indicate that upstream or downstream
sampling is required. Therefore, the facility is only required to monitor the temperature of the effluent for
the outfalls referenced on the page A(1).
Comment #9: Yadkin Inc. request that Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR) submittal be waived.
Response: Since Yadkin, Inc. request coverage under an individual NPDES permit, DMR reporting is
required.
Comment #10: Since it is impractical to obtain samples at the point of discharge, Yadkin Inc. request
approval for sampling at the closest point to discharge where a representative sample can practically be
obtained.
Response: The Division agrees that this is a reasonable request and included the phrase, "E — Effluent or
the point closest to discharge where a representative sample of the discharge can feasibly be obtained." to
allow for sampling at the sump upstream of the discharge.
Comment #11 and #12: On the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page A(1) there is no sample type
listed for flow monitoring and Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page A(2) has no monitoring
frequency or sample type listed for flow monitoring.
Response: These errors have been corrected in the final permit.
Comments received other than those from the Permittee:
Comment #13: The question was raised to the absence of individual toxicant monitoring during passive
discharge from the sump.
Response: The Division has found that there is no reasonable potential for the Narrows Powerhouse to
exceed the chronic standard for lead, chromium, chromium, and PCBs or the action level for copper and
Zinc. A limit for these parameters will not be included as a condition for the permit. However, it is
Division policy to include monitoring as a condition for the permit. Therefore, monitoring of the
toxicants listed above will be required as a condition for the permit. If after one year the listed parameters
have not been detected then Yadkin Inc. may request that these parameters be removed from the permit.
Attached is the NPDES permit No NC0081957 issued February 14, 2000. 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 US Environmental Protection Agency dated December 6, 1983.
Please take notice that this permit is not transferable. Part II, E.4. addresses the requirements to be
followed in case of change in ownership or control of this discharge. This permit does not affect the legal
requirement to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits
required by the Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local
government permit that may be required.
If any parts , measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit modification are

Narrows Powerhouse
Stanly County
Dear Mr. McCaskill:
The purpose of this letter is to clarify the Division's position regarding the discharge of the sump water at
the Narrows Powerhouse. The Narrows Powerhouse is a hydroelectric facility located in Stanly County
North Carolina. Stormwater, which is deposited on the penstocks, collects in sumps located along the
east foundation of the hydroelectric facility. Water samples collected February 26, 1999 and March 15,
1999 revealed that the sediment deposited in the sumps contain levels of PCBs and heavy metals.
Samples were also collected on the water above the sediment and revealed the presence of heavy metals
(i.e. Pb). A subsequent analysis of the water above the sediment, collected on September 21,1999,
detected lead and PCB at 0.045 mg/I and 0.357 ug/l, respectively.
Based on the latest findings, the Division suggests that Yadkin Inc. evaluate disposal methods other than
discharge. The Division recognizes that the cost associated with alternative disposal methods make
discharging an attractive alternative and the Division may permit the discharge provided that either of the
following two options are followed.
Option One:
Prior to discharge Yadkin Inc. must obtain two samples from the sump. One sample shall represent the
upper third of the water column and one sample shall represent the bottom third of the water column.
Analysis results must demonstrate that the listed metals and PCB concentrations are below the following
levels:
Lead (Pb) = 33.78 ug/l
Cadmium (Cd) = 5 ug/I
Chromium (Cr) = 984.3 ug/1
Zinc (Zn) = 65 ug/I

Copper (Cu) = 9.2 ug/I
Total PCBs = 0.000079 ug/I
The Permittee shall determine the concentration of the listed metals in the sump water using either EPA
Method 200.7, EPA Method 200.9, or 3113B (Standard Methods). The concentration of PCB in the sump
water shall be determined using either EPA Method 8082 or EPA Method 608.
Upon determination that the contaminant levels are below those listed above, the sump water may be
discharged until the water level in the lower sump is'h the full water level.
Option Two:
Prior to discharge the sump water shall receive appropriate treatment to remove the contaminants
previously mentioned. The treatment technology employed shall be a proven technology for removal of
the listed contaminants and approved by the Division prior to implementation. After receiving the
appropriate treatment, discharge of the sump water is permitted until the water level in the lower sump is
depressed to'h the full water level. The remainder of the water contained in the sump must be disposed
of by an alternative other than discharge.

NPDES Draft Permit Comments
Yadkin, Inc
Yadkin, Inc has applied for coverage under an individual NPDES permit for this facility
rather than a general permit because of conditions in the general permit which they feel
are unwarranted for this operation.
The following summarizes the comments, as well as, our understanding of the agencies
position based on our discussions during our 10/19/99 meeting, as well as, subsequent
phone conversations.
Ji. Yadkin requests clarification regarding the corrective action letter dated 12/23/99
related to the discharge of sump water. There are two potential scenarios for
discharging the sump water:
A) Actively pumping the water with a sump pump directly to the river
B) Passively discharging the water via gravity flow through the draft tube inlet into
the Unit #4 penstock. (i.e. — stormwater causing intermittent discharges of sump
water.)
As per my 1/4/99 phone conversation with Mr. Mike Myers, it is our understanding
that the letter is addressing scenario A) whereby we would be actively pumping the
water and have to meet the conditions stated in the letter, and not scenario B) which
is occurring on an ongoing basis, for which the stated conditions in the letter do not
apply.
12. Yadkin requests clarification as to the basis for established discharge limits during
circumstances in which active pumping of sump water directly to the river occurs.
Similarly, Yadkin requests clarification as to the requirements which have to be met
.�� under circmstances in which sump water is passively discharged via gravity flow
through the draft tube inlet into the Unit #4 penstock. The stated limits or
requirements to treat the water are overly restrictive and apparently do not take into
consideration reasonable expectations of instream concentrations.
The effluent limitations and monitoring requirements page A(1) only reference
cooling water outfalls 001, 002, & 005, but do not include cooling water outfalls
006 & 007. You will recall that cooling water from from Unit 1(Outfall 001) & Unit 2
(Outfall 006) discharge at a common point, however, since they flow from different
sources until they discharge outside the powerhouse, we listed them as different
outfalls for purposes of clarity. The same situation exists with Unit 3 (Outfall 005) &
Unit 4 (Outfall 007). They are generated from different sources, but exit the
powerhouse at a common point. The reason for listing them as different outfalls is
because the combined discharge cannot be accessed for monitoring purposes if
monitoring is required. Can these outfalls be granted representative outfall status such
that we only have to permit and/or monitor 1 or 2 of the discharges? If not, then they
also need to be reflected on this page as permitted discharges.

NPDES Draft Permit Comments
Yadkin, Inc
N4. Yadkin requests clarification egarding the requirements to monitor the pH of cooling
water and sump water. Sinc there are no chemical additives added to these sources,
what is the basis for reque ing that the pH of non -contact cooling water and/or sump
water be monitored?
• Based on our discussions during our 10/19/99 meeting, it is our understanding
that the division understands our position on the above issue and does not
necesarily see the need for monitoring the pH of these discharges.
fluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements Pages A(2), there is no
oring frequency listed for pH. If pH monitoring is required, then a specified
mYnitoring frequency needs to be indicated on this page.
Yadkin requests clarification regarding the basis of requirements to monitor the
temperature of the cooling water discharges. In the schematic diagrams which were
submitted as part of the application, there is data which indicates that the volume of
generator discharge water relative to the cooling water discharge is proportionally, at
a minimum, a 3000:1 ratio. Operating data indicates there is only an average increase
of 4° - 5° C across the heat exchangers. The maximum increase before a genearator
will trip off-line due to insufficient cooling capacity is 20° — 25°C.
The following thermodynamic equation related to temperature & volume can be used
to show what the resulting temperature would be from combining the cooling water
discharge with the generator discharge.
T(3) = (V(,) X T(») + V(2) X T(2) ) / (V(1) + V(2) )
For Yadkin's case, assuming a water temperature of 20°C, and a cooling water rise of
worst case 25°C, then the resulting water temperature would be:
T(3) _ (3000 x 20) + (1 x 45)) / (3000 + 1 )
_ (60000 + 45) / 3001
= 20.0083
The resulting increase in the receiving water of .0083 degrees is well below the 2.8
degree threshold of allowable temperature rise above background.
• Based on our discussions during our 10/19/99 meeting, it is our understanding
that the division understands our position on the above issue and does not
necessarily see the need for monitoring the temperature of these discharges.
7. Yadkin requests clarification as to the basis for establishing discharge limits
for oil & grease at Outfall 003. There was no fact sheet or waste load allocation
sheets included with the draft permit to support the discharge limits of 15 mg/1
(monthly average) and 20 mg/1 (daily maximum) for this discharge.

• Based on our discussions during our 10/19/99 meeting, it is our understanding
that the division understands our position on this issue. Since the boiler plate
language related to instream temperature increases cannot be removed, the
agency is willing to modify the language on the Effluent Limitations and
Monitoring Requirements Page to indicate that instream monitoring is not
required..
9. Yadkin requests that DMR reporting as specifies' in the Effluent Limitations and
Monitoring Requirements page be waived. B...ed on our discussions during our
10/19/99 meeting, it is our understanding t s . t hydroelectric facilities permitted under

that the division understands the above issue and will consider our request, but
may expect that we provide the DMR as a part offacilitating the divisions needs
for acquisition of data regarding these discharges.
10. Yadkin requests approval that y required sampling is allowed to be performed at
the closest point to the disch ge, which is representative of such discharge, as is
feasible based on the d sig and accessibility of the particular discharge. In a lot of
cases, it is impracticabl o collect samples from the end of the pipe for a particular
discharge due to it bein submerged, elevated, or located in a hazardous or
inaccessible area on the downstream side of the facilities. / _ 4

Narrows Powerhouse
Stanly County
Dear Mr. McCaskill:
The purpose of this letter is to clarify the Division's position regarding the discharge of the sump water at
the Narrows Powerhouse. The Narrows Powerhouse is a hydroelectric facility located in Stanly County
North Carolina. Stormwater, which is deposited on the penstocks, collects in sumps located along the
east foundation of the hydroelectric facility. Water samples collected February 26, 1999 and March 15,
1999 revealed that the sediment deposited in the sumps contain levels of PCBs and heavy metals.
Samples were also collected on the water above the sediment and revealed the presence of heavy metals
(i.e. Pb). A subsequent analysis of the water above the sediment, collected on September 21,1999,
detected lead and PCB at 0.045 mg/1 and 0.357 ug/1, respectively.
Based on the latest findings, the Division suggests that Yadkin Inc. evaluate disposal methods other than
discharge. The Division recognizes that the cost associated with alternative disposal methods make
discharging an attractive alternative and the Division may permit the discharge provided that either of the
following two options are followed.
Option One:
Prior to discharge Yadkin Inc. must obtain two samples from the sump. One sample shall represent the
upper third of the water column and one sample shall represent the bottom third of the water column.
Analysis results must demonstrate that the listed metals and PCB concentrations are below the following
levels:
Lead (Pb) = 33.78 ug/1
Cadmium (Cd) = 5 ug/1
Chromium (Cr) = 984.3 ug/1
Zinc (Zn) = 65 ug/1

Page 2
Copper (Cu) = 9.2 ug/1
Total PCBs = 0.000079 ug/1
The Permittee shall determine the concentration of the listed metals in the sump water using either EPA
Method 200.7, EPA Method 200.9, or 3113B (Standard Methods). The concentration of PCB in the sump
water shall be determined using either EPA Method 8082 or EPA Method 608.
Upon determination that the contaminant levels are below those listed above, the sump water may be
discharged until the water level in the lower sump is'h the full water level.
Option Two:
Prior to discharge the sump water shall receive appropriate treatment to remove the contaminants
previously mentioned. The treatment technology employed shall be a proven technology for removal of
the listed contaminants and approved by the Division prior to implementation. After receiving the
appropriate treatment, discharge of the sump water is permitted until the water level in the lower sump is
depressed to' the full water level. The remainder of the water contained in the sump must be disposed
of by an alternative other than discharge.

SUMMARY
This facility maintains four outfalls (001, 002, 003and 005). The source of wastewater for outfalls 001,002,
and 005 is once through cooling water, outfall 004 is a sump drain collecting runoff. The old permit stipulates
that outfalls 001 through 003 be monitored (with no limits) for flow, temperature and total residual chlorine.
No discharge monitoring reports have been required because of the use of BMPs.
Outfall, 004, which collects runoff from the site has recently been found to contain elevated levels of heavy
metals. The sediment that has accumulated in the sump has been analyzed and found to contain PCBs in
addition to heavy metals. Because the discharge from this outfall is low and the receiving stream flow is large
use of the mass balance equation allows large concentrations of the toxicants of concern. The '/z FAV values
therefore govern the concentration of the pollutants in the discharge. The discharge of the contaminated
sump water will be cover under a corrective action letter to Yadkin, Inc.
The latest analytical data provided by Yadkin Inc. indicates that PCBs are also contained in the water. The
latest analysis indicates that the concentration of PCBs in the sump water is 0.357 ug/1 with an freshwater
human health standard of 0.000079 ug/1. Because of this most recent data, it is recommended that Yadkin Inc
evaluate methods of disposal other than discharging.
Available/ FAV s:
Cd = 5 ug/I
Cr = 984.3 ug/1
Cu = 9.2 ug/I
Pb = 33.8 ug/l
Hg = 2.4 ug/1
Zn = 65 ug/1
Yadkin Inc. has requested that monitoring be replaced by implementation of BMPs. Additionally, Yadkin
Inc. requested that the pH and temperature "Boiler Plate" language be excluded from the permit. This plant
is eligible for coverage under general permit NCG50000, however, they prefer the individual permit because
the general permit does not provide a provision for BMP practices in lieu of monitoring. In the next renewal
of the general permit the viability of providing such a provision into the permit should be examined. For all
Yadkin. Inc. — Narrows Hydroelectric Powerhouse Fact Sheet

hydroelectric facilities that request individual permits in lieu of the general permit, it is the Division's position
that these facilities should be permitted consistently statewide. Therefore, permit NC0027332 and general
permits NCG500000 were used in developing this draft permit for the hydroelectric plants owned by Yadkin,
Inc. in the Yadkin River basin.
The receiving stream (Yadkin River) is classified as WS-IV and B CA waters from Badin dam to a point 0.5
miles upstream of Falls dam. This reach is not listed on the 303(d) list as impaired water. According to the
May 1998 Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basinwide Water Quality management Plan this reach has been classed as
supporting its designated uses.
TOXICITY TESTING:
Current Requirement: N/A
Recommended Requirement: N/A
COMPLIANCE SUMMARY:
To date this facility has not been required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR) because of the
implementation of Best Management Practices. However a historical review of inspection reports was
conducted and Mike Parker (Mooresville Regional Office) was contacted regarding compliance issues. With
the available information it was concluded that this facility has no compliance issues.
INSTREAM MONITORING:
This facility is not required to perform any instream monitoring.
PROPOSED CHANGES:
Outfalls 001, 002, and 005 — Monitoring and/or permit limits have been set for flow and temperature as
outlined on the Effluent Limitations page.
DMR submittal - DMRs will need to be submitted quarterly for all outfalls.
Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) - Total residual chlorine monitoring will be removed from the permit, since
chlorine is not utilities at this facility.
Chromium, zinc, and cooper restriction - The chromium, zinc, and copper excerpt will be excluded since this is
adequately addressed in the notification requirement if any toxicants are to be added.
Temperature - Temperature requirement will reflect the situation if natural conditions raise the ambient temp
above 32°C.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The applicant, Yadkin, Inc. (a subsidiary of ALCOA), operates a powerhouse (dam) on the
Yadkin River known as Narrows Powerhouse, which generates hydroelectric power used in
ALCOA's aluminum manufacturing process. The dam was constructed in the early 1900s. Complex
electrical generation machinery exist at this facility that requires cooling water during operation.
There have been no changes to this facility with regards to the permitted outfalls since the Permit
was last issued.
One important change that should be included in the subject permit is the existence of an
additional discharge from the sumps located along the east foundation of the hydroelectric
generation building. These sumps receive stormwater that collects along the building's foundation
and pumps the water into the process water stream that feeds Narrows Generator Unit No. 4. The
stormwater comes into contact with the penstocks that serve the dam with water for electrical
generation. Through the years, routine maintenance of the penstocks has included painting, which
up until the past 2-3 decades involved the use of lead -based paint. Over time, this paint has
continually flaked off, and was carried to the sumps during storm events. In a recent analysis,
elevated levels of lead were found in analysis of the sump water and sludges that had settled into the
bottom of the sumps. In addition to the existence of lead, PCBs and other constituents were found in
the sludges as well. Yadkin proposes to remove the sludges for disposal in a hazardous waste
landfill, however, the water located in the sumps must be removed before the sumps can be cleaned
of the sludges. Therefore, prior to renewal of this permit, it will be necessary to determine whether
or not this outfall can be effectively permitted considering the current layout of the site, the lack of
available treatment, and the potential for elevated levels of pollutants to enter surface waters.
Page Four
Pending receipt and approval of the WLA and a decision made by the NPDES Unit
regarding the ability to permit the recently discovered sump water discharge, it is recommended that
the NPDES Permit be reissued as requested.

RE: ADDENDUM #2 - NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION - YADKIN, INC
NARROWS POWERHOUSE NC 0081957
Dear Mr. Goodrich:
On behalf of Yadkin, Inc., Alcoa is submitting the attached analytical data as addendum #2 to
the NPDES permit application which was recently submitted by Yadkin, Inc. for the Narrows
Powerhouse. The attached analytical data is for a recently discovered discharge from the
Narrows Powerhouse which was identified just prior to submitting the permit application,
and for which we did not have any data at the time the application was submitted.
The discharge consists primarily of stormwater that collects in sumps along the outside of the
east foundation of the hydroelectric generation building. In order to prevent structural
problems with the building and penstock foundations, the water has historically been
removed by aspirating it into the process water stream which feeds the Narrows Unit #4
generator.
The attached data are for a water sample which was collected on 9/21/99 from standing water
in the Penstock Sumps. It should be noted that there was no discharge occurring at the time of
sampling, so samples were not collected from an actual discharge, but rather from standing
water which accumulates beneath the Penstocks. The data indicate that there are PCB's
present at a concentration of 0.357 ug/1 and total lead at a concentration of 0.045 mg/l.
A copy of this information was provided to Mr. Mike Myers of the Division during his
10/19/99 visit to Badin to discuss the draft NPDES permit for the Narrows Powerhouse.
If you should have additional questions or would like to discuss this further, please don't
hesitate to contact me.

RE: ADDENDUM TO NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION - YADKIN, INC
NARROWS POWERHOUSE NC 0081957
Dear Mr. Goodrich:
On behalf of Yadkin, Inc., Alcoa is submitting the attached analytical data as an addendum to
the NPDES permit application which was recently submitted by Yadkin, Inc. for the Narrows
Powerhouse. The attached analytical data is for a recently discovered discharge from the
Narrows Powerhouse which was identified just prior to submitting the permit application,
and for which we did not have any data at the time the application was submitted.
The discharge consists primarily of stormwater that collects in sumps along the outside of the
east foundation of the hydroelectric generation building. In order to prevent structural
problems with the building and penstock foundations, the water has historically been
removed by aspirating it into the process water stream which feeds the Narrows Unit #4
generator. The data consists of two separate water samples which were collected from the
sumps beneath the Narrows penstocks, as well as, a sludge sample which was collected from
sludge which was removed from the sumps beneath the penstocks.
The first water sample collected on 2/26/99 was collected st bsequent to the sludge having
been removed from the sumps. The water level in the sumps at that time was — 12". It is
important to note that because of the low water level at the time of sampling, there was no
discharge occurring, so the 2/26/99 sample was taken from standing water in the sump
beneath the Unit #4 penstock, and not from the pump discharge.
The second water sample collected on 3/15/99 was collected subsequent to a storm when the
sumps were full with — 3 - 5 feet of standing water. Again, it is important to note that the
sample was collected from standing water beneath the Unit #4 penstock, and not from the
pump discharge since active pumping of the water has not occurred since the original
discovery of contaminants in the water.
You will note that the 3/15/99 water sample was also analyzed for Polychlorinated Biphenyls
(PCB's) with concentrations detemined to be below the reported PQL's of 1.0 and 2.0 ug/1
for respective arochlors. The decision to analyze the water for PCB's was made after
receiving the analytical results for the sludge which had been removed from the sumps and
determined to have a PCB concentration of 22.4 mg/kg. You will also note that both of the
P.O. Box 576 Badin, North Carolina 28009 USA
water samples contained lead, as well as, other trace metals which has resulted from
historical painting activities associated with the penstocks which have been maintained since
the facility installation in the early 1900's. The water which is currently standing in the
sumps gravity flows to the river through the aspiration inlet into the Unit #4 generator every
time there is additional water deposited in the sumps from stormwater infiltration.
In order to facilitate further cleaning of the sumps, Yadkin is requesting permission to pump
the remaining water in the sumps to the river which is estimated to be — 30,000 - 50,000
gallons. Once this accomplished, an attempt will be made to further clean sediment from the
sumps in an effort to reduce or eliminate any further contamination in this discharge.
Additionally, Yadkin is requesting permission to continue to routinely pump accumulated
stormwater from the sumps to the river to prevent any future structural problems with the
foundations of the building and penstocks.
We request you consider this matter on an expedited basis as 1) we have a Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) requirement that this water not be allowed to cover the
penstock foundations as is the present condition and 2) we want to expedite removal of the
remaining sediment to ensure the cleanest water possible be discharged to the stream.
If you should have additional questions or would like to discuss this further, please don't
hesitate to contact me.
Very Truly Yours,

Gentlemen:
Enclosed are permit applications for the four Yadkin, Inc. hydro -generation plants.
gamin Inc
•

We request consideration of a best management practice (BMP) provision for all permitted outfalls.
Since our discharges consist primarily of non -contact cooling water and the volume of water used to cool
the turbines relative to the total discharge volume is so small, we question the necessity of boiler plate
language in the current permits related to instream temperature rise. Also, since we are not adding
anything to the cooling water which would alter the pH, we question the necessity of boiler plate
language in the current permits related to pH.
You will note that we have added an additional outfall at the Narrows Powerhouse (004). We are
currently in the process of sampling the discharge and will be forwarding the data to you as an
amendment to this application.
Also, .please note that High Rock Powerhouse is actually located in Davidson County; however, during
previous permit renewals, for consistency sake, permitting oversight has been provided from one regional
office. Yadkin requests that this approach to permitting oversight be continued from one regional office.
We do not produce sludge in our process; therefore, a sludge management plan is not included in the
submittal.
Please call me at (704) 422-5617 should you have questions or comments concerning
this submittal.
