The Permittee shall calculate monthly and annual TN Loads as follows: i. Monthly TN Load (pounds/month) = TN x TMF x 8.34 Where: TN = average TN concentration (mg/L) of the composite samples collected during the month TMF = Total Monthly Flow of wastewater discharged during the month (MG/month) 8.34 = conversion factor, from (mg/L x MG) to pounds H. Annual TN Load (pounds/year) = Sum of the 12 Monthly TN Loads for the calendar year b. The Permittee shall report monthly Total Nitrogen results (mg/L and pounds/month) in the discharge monitoring report for that month and shall report each year's annual results (pounds/year) in the December report for that year. A. (4) ANNUAL LIMITS FOR TOTAL NITROGEN (a) TN limits for NPDES dischargers in the Neuse River basin are as prescribed in the basin's Nutrient Management Strategy rule for wastewater treatment facilities, T15A NCAC 213 .0234. (b) The Permittee's TN discharge is governed by this Permit unless the Permittee is a member and co-permittee of an approved compliance association, in which case its TN discharge is governed by the association's group NPDES permit and the limits therein. (c) TN limits for NPDES dischargers in the Neuse River basin are annual, calendar -year limits. All such limits in effect on January 1 of a given year remain in effect for the entire calendar year. Changes in TN limits become effective on January 1 of the year following permit modification and remain in effect for the full year. •Similarly, changes in membership in a compliance association become effective on January 1 of the year following the change and remain in effect for the full year. (d) For any given calendar year, the Permittee shall be in compliance with the annual TN Load limit in this Permit if- (1) the Permittee's annual TN Load is less than or equal to said limit, or (2) the Permittee is a Member of a compliance association and a Co-Permittee to the association's group NPDES permit. (e) The Permittee's effective TN limit (if any) may change due to changes in its TN allocation or membership changes in a compliance association. (1) The Permittee may notify the Division and request a modification of this Permit to incorporate allowable changes in its TN Load limit. Allowable changes include those resulting from purchase of TN allocation from the Wetlands Restoration Fund; purchase, sale, trade, or lease of allocation between the Permittee and other dischargers; regionalization; and other transactions approved by the Division. (2) If the Permittee intends to join or leave a compliance association, the Division must be notified of the proposed change. (3) Upon receipt of timely and proper notification, the Division will modify the affected permit(s) as necessary to incorporate the allowable changes in TN limits or to reflect the change in membership. a. The Division must receive notification no later than August 31 for changes proposed for the following calendar year. b. Notification shall be sent to: NC DENR / DWQ / NPDES Unit Attn: Neuse River Basin Coordinator 1617 Mail Service. Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Permit NCO062219 (fl For the purpose of permit compliance, an association's Co-Permittee Members in a calendar year (and the Permittee's membership status) shall be as defined in its group NPDES permit. The roster and the members' TN allocations will be updated annually and in accordance with state and federal program requirements. (g) The TN monitoring and reporting requirements in this Permit remain in effect until expiration of this Permit and are not affected by the Permittee's membership in a compliance association. A. (5) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT ((,quarterly) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 90.0%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September & December_ Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase 11 Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised - February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring.
