In the final permit, acetone and cis -1,2 dichloroethlyene monitoring frequencies were amended to
quarterly with no conditional petition to better document the treatment system removal efficiency. Also, the
final permit was not issued until the cation filters system was installed providing the manganese removal needed
to obtain compliance.
Please note that your discharge is into a receiving stream that 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,
and instream data will continue to be evaluated. If there is noncompliance with permitted effluent limits and
stream impairment can be attributed to your facility, then mitigative measures may be required.
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

1. Sample should be skimmed from liquid surface in a quiescent zone, such as from liquid surface in
a holding tank, if possible.
2. A minimum detection limit of 1.0 jig/] is required.
3. Chronic Toxicity (Ceriodaphnia), P/F at 90 %, January, April, July, and October, See Special
Condition A.(2). Toxicity sample to be collected at same time as monitored pollutants samples.
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.
There shall be no oily sheen in the discharge or in the receiving stream traceable to the discharge.
A. (2) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant
mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 90%.
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
January, April, July, and October. 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 II 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. If reporting pass/fail
results using the parameter code TGP3B, DWQ Form AT -1 (original) is sent to the below address. If
reporting Chronic Value results using the parameter code THP3B, DWQ Form AT -3 (original) is to be
sent to the following address:

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 Section 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.
If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such
monitoring shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the data submitted on the DMR and all
AT Forms submitted.
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

FACT SHEET FOR NPDES PERMIT DEVELOPMENT
NPDES Permit NC0086827
Revised. 814111
History
Brenntag Southeast, Inc. has applied for renewal of its NPDES permit to discharge treated
remediated groundwater into a storm drain located in Durham County from its
industrial/commercial operation. The only viable option, other than discharge to surface water,
is to discharge to the City of Durham. However, the City of Durham is unwilling to accept the
remediated groundwater continuing to make this permitted discharge the most economical viable
option.
Groundwater data from 1996 to 2000 was used to establish the original owners, Southchem, Inc.,
2000 GWR permits requirements, and included 32 effluent characteristics (see Table A). In
addition to solvent contaminated groundwater, samples indicate contaminates from petroleum
sources. Therefore, the conditions of the general permit for groundwater remediation systems
were incorporated into the original permit. The discharge is to a zero flow stream.
In 2001, the ownership changed to Brenntag Southeast, Inc. A major permit modification was
issued in 2004 that reduced the monitored effluent characteristics to 18 parameters (see Table A).
After reviewing the DMR data and petition request, the 2005 permit renewal reduced the effluent
characteristics requirements to 16 (see Table A). As these permit amendments were implemented
the permit limits and monitoring frequency were also amended.

The discharge is to an unnamed tributary to Third Fork Creek. Prior to 2009 this section of
Third Fork Creek was classified as C, NSW. But in 2009 this stream was reclassified as a WS -V
stream, as it is tributary to Jordan Lake. Though the unnamed tributary is not directly listed as
impaired it is considered part of Third Fork Creek which is impaired. The approved 2010 303(d)
list Third Fork Creek impaired for low dissolved oxygen, zinc, fecal, and biological integrity.
The cause of impairment is uncertain but urbanization is suspected.
Process
The GWR system consist of 10 capture wells, estimated to extract 10 gpm each, that connect to
a common manifold which then passes the combined flow through an influent meter and then a
bag filter which removes particulate and other solids. The bag filter is routinely replaced. The
filtered flow continues to the stripper air column and collects in the stripper sump. The sump is
pumped intermittently through two in series GAC filters and then through the effluent meter
before discharging to the outfall. The GAC filters are routinely replaced and disposed of by a
contractor service. The system may be shutdown in severe weather, there are on site personnel
that routinely check and maintain the system. A new cation replaceable filter was added to
reduce the manganese and met the new effluent manganese wqs limits.
The owner is required to collect data from various monitoring wells and the capture wells on an
annual bases, and submit this data with a report to Aquifer Protection. A copy of the most recent
report, 2009, was requested and has been received

Footnote:
1. Based on the fact that these constituents were not found at detectable levels in the
effluent for at least 12 months, a Major Modification for the permit was granted and
issued in 2004, and these parameters monitoring requirements were removed.
2. With no detection for 12 previous months, the Permittee petitioned for the removal of
these parameters. The removal was granted and include in the 2005 permit.
Permitting Strategy
To verify an acceptable cross-section of effluent -based pollutants are monitored to validate the
treatment process, the 2009 well data was evaluated. It was noted the wells contained several
pollutants in concentrations in excess of the WS water quality standard (see Table B).

The 2008- 2010 DMR data including the annual EPA Method 624/625 (Full suite) was reviewed.
Pollutants of interest, solvents and chlorinated compounds, were reported as no detects
indicating the treatment system was performing satisfactory. No changes to the 624/625 annual
monitoring requirement is recommended.
The Permittee has requested removal of bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate monitoring. The reported
values are less than values but are not consistent repeated values. The newly required Water
Supply water quality standard, 1.2 14g/1, and previous Human Health water quality standard, 2.2
µg/1, could not be reconciled against the reported data. In discussions with the Permittee, it was
determined that the lab inconsistency was the primary cause. The lab has agreed to provide
future values following a minimum detection limit of 1.0 µg/1. Monitoring will remain
unchanged in this permit with a minimum detection requirement of 1.0 µg/1.
An RPA was performed for iron and manganese, and all organic parameters, using 2008 - 2010
DMR data and applying the applicable water supply standards. Since iron is an action level
parameter, and all the toxicity tests were passed, monitoring was reduced to quarterly. The less
than detects for the monitored organics by default yielded no justification to add limits.
However, 8 of the reported manganese values were above its newly defined Water Supply water
quality standard so a chronic limit will be added. To be consistent with EPA policy, both a
monthly and daily limit of 200 µg/1 will be applied. Since this is a new limit as a result of the
stream reclassification to WS -V in 2009, the Permittee consultant was contacted about the new
manganese limits. The consultant responded that a new filter canister (disposable cation media)
installation would be required to meet the new limits with a June 2011 completion date. Based
on comments from CG&L, no A to C required, and the anticipated effective date on the renewed
permit the Division foresee on compliance concerns.
A review of the latest well data, influent to the treatment works, continue to show the existing
monitored organic parameters as the pollutants of concern. No changes are recommended for the
existing organic parameters monitoring. Two additional organic parameters, not previously
monitored in the effluent, and in significant excess above water quality standards in the well data
were noted, acetone and cis-1,2dichloroethlyene. However, acetone and cis -1,2 dichloroethylene
should be easily reduced to below WQS by the current treatment process so quarterly
monitoring will be added to the permit as validation.
To be consistent with EPA policy, TSS will receive both a monthly and daily limit of 30 mg/l.
Based on the current NSW Jordan Rules this facility is not required to monitor nutrients so Total
Nitrogen monitoring will be removed. Oil and Grease monitoring will continue and a new
narrative statement about oily sheen in the discharge will be added.
Quarterly pH monitoring will be added to validate no issues. The receiving stream is impaired
for zinc so quarterly zinc monitoring will be added.
Toxiary TESTING:
Since 2005 the Permittee has conducted 19 chronic toxicity tests and had no failures. No changes
are recommended. The narrative will be updated to the current version.

Verbal description of GWR treatment operation Brenntag Durham from phone call 1/19/11 with James O
Shilliday.
9 active collection wells (pneumatic driven) tie to common manifold which passes the combined flow
through a bag filter to remove particulate and other solids. The bag filter is routinely replaced. The
filtered flow continues to the stripper column and collects in the stripper sump. The sump is pumped
intermittently through two in series GAC filters and then through the effluent meter before discharging
to the outfall. The GAC filters are routinely replaced and disposed of by a contractor service. The system

Permit - NC0086827
Jim,
Thanks for the information. For the manganese, prior to issuing the final permit I
will send you a draft
of the special condition text with a compliance date we will add to the permit. One
thing to remember
is to include time to obtain an Authorization to construct from the DWQ construction
Grants and
Loans section. I assume there is no additional waste streams being generated as the
CG -8 resin will be
replaced once spent.
The bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate issue is ultimately going to be addressed by the
lab ability to 1)
provide viable data demonstrating no effluent exceedance of the limit or to 2)
provide viable data
demonstrating problems with measuring this parameter or to 3) provide viable data
demonstrating
effluent exceedance of the limit. In any case, we can not wait until the manganese
treatment system
is in place. Is there some concern about interaction from the treatment system? If
there is an analytical
problem then we need the lab to advise you on the cause and possible solution which
in turn we will
require formal documentation.
If you have any questions let me know.

Mr. Berry,

RE Questions about new limits in Brenntag Southeast Inc. GWR NPDES Permit - NC00868272nd reply
website,
we understand that Third Fork creek was reclassified to a water supply (ws) stream
(actual
classification being ws-Iv) on August 11, 2009. The classification of ws-Iv applies
to Third
Fork creek from its source to a point 2.0 miles upstream of N.C. Highway 54.
Because of this
reclassification a surface water Quality Standard of 200 micrograms per liter (µg/L)
now applies
for manganese for surface water in Third Fork creek and its tributaries. The
treated
groundwater for the groundwater remediation system at the Brenntag Durham facility
currently
discharges to an unnamed tributary to Third Fork creek; therefore, it appears that
our new
NPDES Permit will stipulate a discharge limit of 200 Ng/L for manganese. since
activation of
our groundwater remediation system in 2002, we have detected concentrations of
manganese in
our discharge at concentrations ranging from a high of around 3,000 Ng/L to a low of
<50 Ng/L.
The typical manganese concentration range that we have seen over the past 2 years
has been
<50 pg/L to 380 pg/L. Because the potential exists for our discharge to exceed the
200 pg/L
limit for manganese that will be imposed in the new NPDES Permit, we will need to
modify our
current water treatment system to address manganese. we have engaged in discussions
with
one of our subcontractors regarding the type of equipment that would be best suited
for removal
of manganese from our effluent discharge. we supplied the subcontractor with a data
summary
table that lists the concentrations of manganese that have been detected in the
effluent samples
for the past several years. Based on our conversation with the subcontractor, they
recommend
using a strong acid cation resin called CG -8. Reportedly this type of resin is
specifically
designed to treat metals. To incorporate this technology we would add another vessel
for the
CG -8 resin after the two granular activated carbon (GAC) vessels. we are working
with our
subcontractor right now to determine how much resin we would need and how often it
would
need to be replaced. I anticipate having this data in the next week or so. we
would like to have
approximately a 3 month timeframe to purchase the new equipment, have it installed,
and test it.
So I think a realistic timeframe for having this additional equipment up and running
is June 30.
2) Reporting limit and NPDES discharge limit for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate
As discussed above, it is understood that Third Fork creek and its headwater
tributaries were
reclassified to a water supply stream (ws-iv) in 2009. Because of this
reclassification a surface
water Quality standard of 1.2 Ng/L now applies for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate.
It is our
understanding that our new NPDES Permit will stipulate a discharge limit of 1.2 Ng/L
for bis (2-
ethylhexyl) phthalate. The standard Method 625 analysis which we have been using

versions.
The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure d ument is 90 %. The testing
shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 7day pass/fail test. The to s will be performed during the
months of February, May, August, and November. Effluent sampling or this testing shall be performed
at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment cesses.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit coon/on on will be entered on the Effluent
Discharge Monitoring Form (MR -1) for the month in which it w performed, using the parameter code
TGP3B. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-] (orig*) is to be sent the following address:

than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for w ch the port is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and inclu all support" chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as 11 as all dose/res nse data. Total residual chlorine
of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured d reported if chlorine " employed for disinfection of
the waste stream.
Should there be no discharge of flow: the acility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is
required, the permittee will complete the info ation located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test
form indicating the facility name, permit n r, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report
with the notation of "No Flow" in the co ent area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the
Environmental Sciences Section at the ad dr ss cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor d "ng a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then
monthly monitoring will begin imm ately. Upon submission of a valid test, this monthly test
requirement will revert to quarterly in a months specified above.
Should any test data from this monito ng requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division
of Water Quality indicate potential " pacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and
modified to include alternate monit "ng requirements or limits.
If the Permittee monitors any pol tant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such
monitoring shall be included in a calculation and reporting of the data submitted on the DMR and AT
Forms.
NOTE: Failure to achieve to t conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival, minimu control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls,
shall constitute an invalid st and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later
than the last day of the mo; following the month of the initial monitoring.
RE Questions about new limits in Brenntag southeast Inc. GWR NPDES Permit - NC00868272nd reply
to analyze
for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate since we first started effluent sampling in 2002
provides a
reporting limit (RL) of 10 Ng/L; therefore, we will need to utilize a different
analytical procedure
for testing for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate that will provide a RL of 1.0 Ng/L.
The analytical
laboratory that we utilize on this project (Test America) has indicated that they
can provide a
consistent RL of 1.0 Ng/L for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate using Method 8270 Low
Level (LL).
Test America will use the full liter of water collected for the analysis,
concentrate it to 0.5
milliliters and analyze that extract. This will provide a RL of 1 Ng/L. The new
NPDES Permit will
need to stipulate use of EPA Method 8270 Low Level for analysis of bis
(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate.
Please note that because of the ubiquitous nature of bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate in
all things
made of plastic, there is a concern that detections of bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate
could be
associated with plastic piping associated with the groundwater extraction and
treatment system.
we would like to wait to implement this change in analytical procedures following
completion of
our installation and testing of the strong acid cation resin unit for treatment of
manganese. so
this new analytical procedure would be implemented after June 30.
Please let us know if you would like to discuss these items in more detail.
Thanks

Mr. shilliday:
This is a follow up to the a voice message I previously left. I would like to
resolve some issues and
pending items prior to issuing the draft permit for Brenntag southeast Inc. GWR.
We have completed evaluation of all pertinent data for renewing the NPDES permit for
Brenntag
southeast Inc. GWR. Two significant items you need to be aware of, and we request
your input for
are:
1) The receiving stream classification was reclassified in 2009 to water supply
(WS). As a result,
several reported effluent manganese levels already exceed the WS water quality
standard,
200 pg/1. our evaluation indicate this discharge will continue to violate the 200
pg/l water
quality standard, and as such a limit will be applied in the new permit. we prefer
to work with
the Permittee to establish a compliance time line that is acceptable by the

Division to allow for
design and installation of the necessary treatment equipment. we need to determine a
tentative schedule and narrative for this permit.
2) The bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate pollutant is going to receive a limit, 1.2
pg/1, in the new permit.
we recognize this is an on going issue and may be a lab issue. However, the data
provided is
not of sufficient detection to eliminate this concern. In the new permit a limit
will be imposed.
Recommend you discuss with the labyou use and see if they can succeed in providing
consistent good data, detection to less than 1 Ng/1, and make changes in the
sampling process
to eliminate the cross contamination. we can discuss options based on what
information your
lab can provide.
I am very interested in any information you can provide in regards to the above.

Subject:
NPDES Permit Renewal Application (NPDES Permit NC0086827), Groundwater
Remediation System, Brenntag Southeast, Inc., Durham, North Carolina.
Dear Mrs. Sprinkle:
On behalf of Brenntag Southeast, Inc. (Brenntag Southeast), ARCADIS G&M of
North Carolina, Inc. (ARCADIS) has enclosed one original and two copies of the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit renewal application
for the continued discharge of effluent from a groundwater remediation system at the
Brenntag Southeast facility (formerly Southchem) in Durham, North Carolina
(NPDES Permit NC0086827). Treated groundwater from the remediation system is
discharged to an on-site storm sewer that, in turn, discharges to a drainage ditch
located along the southern boundary of the site. This drainage ditch conveys surface
water to an unnamed tributary of Third Fork Creek. No changes have been
implemented to the groundwater remediation system since the previous NPDES
Permit Renewal Application was submitted in April 2005.
Other items enclosed with this letter in support of the NPDES permit renewal
application include the following:
• Figure 1 - USGS topographic map of the project area that depicts the location of
the system outfall;
• Figure 2 - site map that depicts the route of the treated water to the discharge
point; and
• Attachment 1 - a copy of the March 2010 Discharge Monitoring Report which
summarizes the most recent analytical data for the system effluent.
Imagine the result

Sludge is neither generated nor discharged by the groundwater remediation system;
therefore, a sludge management plan has not been included with this application.
Any solids (e.g. silt, iron and manganese precipitate) generated during the
groundwater extraction and/or treatment processes are filtered from the treatment
stream using bag filters and granular activated carbon units. The treated effluent is
sampled on a monthly basis for total suspended solids in compliance with the
monitoring requirements for the site (see Attachment 1).
If you have any questions regarding the information presented in the NPDES permit
application or any of the supporting material, please call me at (919) 854-1282.
Sincerely,
ARCADIS G&M of North Carolina, Inc.
