Dear Mr. Royall,
In response to your permit modification request received on November 22, 2022, and subsequent
additional information received on March 16, 2023, and July 26, 2023, we are forwarding herewith
Permit No. WQ0029169 dated October 24, 2023, to the Town of Mount Olive for the operation of the
subject reclaimed water generation and dedicated utilization facilities.
Modifications to the subject permit are as follows:
➢ This permit allows for the operation of the irrigation facilities which the Soil Scientist
Summary Report dated April 25, 2022, certified to accept the 61 inches per year designed
loading rate, and in accordance with Condition I.4. of the previous permit issued October 12,
2020.
➢ The Division has included in this permit the unsuitable soils for land application at 61 inches
per year but are not permitted for operation until a permit modification is submitted with
updated field acreages and engineering calculations verifying irrigation design rates meet the
recommendations of the Soil Scientist Evaluation Report dated November 15, 2022.
➢ Addition of Monitoring Well MW-4 to Attachment C.
This permit is effective from the date of issuance through November 30, 2026, shall replace

These fields contain areas that are unsuitable for the previously permitted application rate of 61 inches per year. The Permittee shall not apply reclaimed water to these fields until the Division
approves a permit modification in accordance with Condition I.1.
The future major modification permit issuance will include the field acreages based on their wetted acreage.
These application rates are the maximum recommended application rates from the November 15, 2022, Soil Scientist Evaluation Report.

1. The Permittee shall conduct 3 x Year monitoring in March, July, and November, and Annual monitoring in November.
2. The Permittee shall measure the water levels prior to purging the wells. The Permittee shall measure the depth to water in each well from the surveyed point on the top of the casing. The
Permittee shall measure pH after purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
3. The Permittee shall survey the measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells to provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well. The Permittee shall
survey the measuring points (top of casing) of all monitoring wells relative to a common datum.
4. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) — Analyze by one or more of the following methods:
a. Standard Method 6200 B-2011, PQL at 0.5 �tg/L or less
b. Standard Method 6200 C-2011, PQL at 0.5 �tg/L or less
c. SW-846 Method 8021 B, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 gg/L or less
d. SW-846 Method 8260 D, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 gg/L or less
e. Another method with prior approval by the Water Quality Permitting Section Chief
Any method used shall meet the following qualifications:
a. A Division -certified laboratory shall run any method used.
b. The method used shall include all the constituents listed in Table 6200:I of Standard Methods.
c. The method used shall provide a PQL of 0.5 �tg/L or less supported by laboratory proficiency studies as required by the Division's Laboratory Certification Branch. A Division -certified
laboratory shall qualify (estimate) and report any constituents detected above the MDL but below the PQL of 0.5 gg/L.
5. If monitoring detects any volatile organic compounds (VOC), then the Permittee shall immediately contact the Washington Regional Office supervisor, telephone number [phone], for
further instructions regarding any additional follow-up analyses required.

6. If monitoring detects TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/L in any downgradient monitoring well, the Permittee shall conduct additional sampling and analysis to identify the individual
constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 mg/L, this concentration shall represent the naturally
occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells are subject to additional sampling and analysis as described above.
7. The Permittee shall report monitoring well data on Compliance Monitoring Forms (GW-59s) consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in this attachment.
