This permit shall become effective June 3, 2013. This permit and authorization to discharge shall expire at midnight on June 30, 2015. Signed this day May 31, 2013. C4 Wakild, Director ision of Water Quality By Authority of the Environmental Management Commission Permit NC0021971 SUPPLEMENT TO PERMIT COVER SHEET All previous NPDES Permits issued to this facility, whether for operation or discharge are hereby revoked, and as of this issuance, any previously issued permit bearing this number is no longer effective. Therefore, the exclusive authority to operate and discharge from this facility arises under the permit conditions, requirements, terms, and provisions described herein. Blanchard Terminal Company LLC is hereby authorized to: 1. continue to operate a Surface -Water Pollution Prevention Plan for stormwater in proximity to above- ground, storage tanks (ASTs) providing surface bulk -storage of petroleum hydrocarbon fuels in excess of one million gallons, and fuel -truck loading racks; utilizing • secondary -containment basins (for ASTs) • point -source discharge valve (normally closed — manually controlled) located at the Charlotte BP Terminal/Paw Creek, 7401 Old Mount Holly Road, near Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, and 2. discharge from said treatment works at a point, designated on the attached map, via Outfall 009 into an unnamed tributary to Paw Creek [stream segment 11-124], a waterbody currently classified C within the Catawba River Basin. Permit NC0021971 A. (1.) EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the Permittee is authorized to discharge from Outfall 009. Such discharges shall be limited and monitored by the Permittee as specified below: PARAMETER i - ainwdl NITOffiVerrtrOUIRE Monthly Average Daily Nagiiiian s "i Measurement ranuenV., Sample ,. ,_f_ TYCM Sample Litta.W.4 _ [50050] Flow.'

Flow - During periods of no flow, the Permittee shall submit a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) indicating "No discharge." Flow must be measured with each discharge event and may be monitored in one of four ways: a) measure flow continuously; b) calculate flow based on total rainfall per area draining to the outfall; exclude built -upon area [See Section A. (3.)]; best method for facilities with large runoff -collection ponds;. c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or d) report flow based on discharge pump logs. 2. Oil and Grease - Where possible, the grab sample for oil and grease should be skimmed from the surface of a quiescent zone. 3. Turbidity - Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. If receiving stream background turbidity exceeds 50 NTU, effluent shall not cause this background value to increase. 4. Naphthalene - Monitoring requirement applies to facilities that store, or historically stored, diesel or other heavy fuels on site. 5. Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minno 24-hour P ), Annual [see Special Condition A. (2.)]. Permittee shall sample for acute toxicity and concurrently. • The Permittee shall discharge no floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts. • The Permittee shall discharge no tank solids, tank bottom water, or the rag layer. • There shall be no direct discharge of tank (or pipe) contents following hydrostatic testing unless benzene concentration is less than 71.4 µg/L and toluene concentration is less than 11 µg/L. Permit NC0021971 A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING - Pass/Fail (ANNUAL) The Pe ,uu ittee shall conduct annual toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in EPA Document E A/600/4-90/027 en i u.-d "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and g. he monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) tic test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste e Permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January of the calendar year of the effective date of the permit. The annual test requirement must be performed and reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30, notification will be made to the Division by this date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test requirement. The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: 24-hour Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re- opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and shall require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. i Permit NC0021971 A. (3.) FLOW MEASUREMENT RATIONAL The Rational Equation: Q=KuCIA, where: Q= Ku = C= I= flow (peak flow rate (cfs or m3/sec) units conversation factor = 1.008 for U.S. standard units (usually ignored because it is so close to 1), or 0.278 for SI units dimensionless runoff coefficient for the watershed, loosely defined as the ratio of runoff to rainfall intensity of rainfall taken from the intensity -duration -frequency curves for the specified design return period at the time of concentration, tc (in/h or mm/h). tc = time of concentration (time after the beginning of rainfall excess when all portions of the drainage basin are contributing simultaneously to flow at the outlet). A = area of tributary watershed (acres or km2) The rational equation is used to calculate the runoff from a region, given: • the runoff coefficient which accounts for infiltration and other potential losses in the region, • the rainfall intensity to the region, • the time it takes for runoff to travel from the region's upper reaches to its outlet, and the region's drainage area.
