Please note that a mistake was made in the original ATC application submittal package. The application described the replacement of approximately 1,500 linear feet of existing 13-inch pipe with 16-inch HPDE pipe from Unit 6 to the East Ash Pond. The pipe replacement is actually for Unit 5 and not for Unit 6. All other details remain the same. The plant is sorry for any confusion that this may have caused. Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant received authorization to construct from your office on July 16, 2009. The Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant has now completed the installation of all piping components for Unit 5. The approval to construct requires that the following two conditions be met prior to operation of the piping components: (1) Notify the Raleigh Regional office at least 48-hours in advance of piping operation. Mr. Barry Herzberg was emailed on Monday, December 14, 2009, for the notification of the scheduled operation date of Wednesday, December 16, 2009. Please see attached email. (2) Upon completion of construction a certification must be received from a professional engineer certifying the permitted facility. The attached Certification Form fulfills this requirement.

Bryson Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. Environmental, Health and Safety Services Bell (919) 546-3962 Vnet 8-770-3962 1.2 Project Background The Cape Fear Plant has five basins (ash ponds) that have received or currently receive coal combustion waste (CCW). The location of the ash ponds are shown in Figures 2A and 2B and are identified by the year during which they were substantially completed: 1956, 1963, 1970, 1978, and 1985. Two of these basins, the 1963 Ash Pond and the 1970 Ash Pond are often considered as one structure because the 1970 Ash Pond was constructed as an extension of the 1963 Ash Pond as discussed later in this document. As a result, there may be question as to how the combined present 1963/1970 Ash Ponds are regulated with respect to North Carolina Dam Safety Act of 1967. At a minimum, CHA understands that the 1970 portion is subject to this regulation. The 1978 and 1985 Ash Ponds are currently permitted to receive sluiced CCW with the 1985ASh Pond actively receiving CCW. None of the impoundments are listed on the National Inventory of Dams (NID) database or the North Carolina Dam Inventory. In the State of North Carolina, because of the association with electric power generation, the North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC) has regulatory jurisdiction over the permitted impoundments and the 1970 Ash Pond. As a consequence, the hazard classification given the impoundments in the past has been based on United State Corps of Engineers' criteria. The permitted ash ponds have been given a "significant" hazard rating based on property damage but not loss of life, while the older 1970 Ash Pond has been given a `low" rating based on lower potential property damage and no loss of life by Mactec Engineering and Consulting, Inc. 1.2.1 State Issued Permits Progress Energy has received the following state issued permits for the 1978 and 1985 Ash Ponds: ,AIWJW-Ash Pond - North Carolina State Permit No. NC0003433' has been issued to Progress authorizing discharge under the USEPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to the Cape Fear River in accordance with effluent a A — -2- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina limitations, monitoring requirements and other conditions set forth in the permit. The permit became effective on August 11, 2006 and will expire on July 31, 2011. (Note this permit also covers the 1978 Ash Pond and other surface runoff locations not containing coal combustion waste controlled by Progress Energy on the site). 1978 Ash Pond - North Carolina State Permit No. NC0003433 has been issued to Progress authorizing discharge under the USEPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to the Cape Fear River in accordance with effluent limitations, monitoring requirements and other conditions set forth in the permit. The permit became effective on August 11, 2006 and will expire on July 31, 2011. (Note this permit also covers the 1985 Ash Pond and other surface runoff locations not containing coal combustion waste controlled by Progress Energy on the site). 1.3 Site Description and Location The Cape Fear Plant is a 400 Megawatt facility located in a generally forested, rural area adjacent to the confluence of the Haw and Deep Rivers in southern Chatham County, North Carolina. It was constructed in 1923. During the early stages of its existence, a system of levees, flood walls, and flood gates was constructed around the plant as protection against high river levels, problem since controlled with the construction of B. Everett Jordan Dam on the Haw River. Since the mid to late 1950's, five CCW disposal basins (ash ponds) have been constructed and have operated for a period of time accepting liquid home waste ash material. They are in varying states of activity and vegetative overgrowth as summarized in Sections 1.3.1 to 1.3.5. A map of the region indicating the location of the Cape Fear Plant and identifying schools, hospitals, or other critical infrastructure located within approximately five miles down gradient of the primary and secondary ash ponds is provided as Figure 4. a-K- -3- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina 1.3.1 1985 Ash Pond The 1985 Ash Pond is the second of the two permitted CCW impoundments at the Cape Fear Plant and is located south of CP&L drive between a railway service spur and SR 1916 (Corinth Road), roughly 500 feet northeast of the 1978 Ash Pond. It has a surface area of approximately 65 acres and an approximate capacity of 1,764 acre-feet. Figure 3A shows a typical cross section of a 1985 Ash Pond dike. Currently the ash pond impounds roughly 1,188 acre-feet of waste material and water and actively receives sluiced CCW. In 2007, Progress Energy decided to construct an interior ash pond on top of the sedimented CCW in a "Pond within a Pond" concept to increase the overall pond capacity. Available documents indicate that the 1985 Ash Pond is a stand-alone diked structure with a maximum height of 28 feet. It was designed with 2:1 slopes on the dikes however, during construction, excess unsuitable soil material was wasted on the northern and eastern slopes. Based on historical information, this effectively reduced the slopes in these areas to approximately 3:1 or flatter. Design information on the "Pond within a Pond" concept was not available at the time this report is written, but engineering inspection reports suggest that the interior pond dikes are on the order of about 10 feet high. 1.3.2 1978 Ash Pond The 1978 Ash Pond is one of the two permitted CCW impoundments on the Cape Fear facility. It is located south of the existing generation facility between the inactive 1963/1970 Ash Ponds and the effluent discharge canal. Figure 3B shows a typical cross section of a 1978 Ash Pond dike. Available documentation indicates that the ash pond has a surface area of approximately 43 acres and currently impounds roughly 864 acre-feet of its estimated 1,161 acre-foot capacity. Based on a fairly recent aerial photo, it appears that roughly one-half to two-thirds of the pond area is vegetated with grass and light to moderate tree growth. The pond currently does not receive any CCW and serves as a receptacle for the storm water, coal pile run off, and low - volume categorical waste water the plant generates. -4- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina Historical design information and facility operation documents indicate that the 1978 Ash Pond has a maximum dike height of 27 feet and was constructed with 2:1 slopes. It shares a common dike with the 1963/1970 Ash Ponds and incorporates part of the steam plant's pre-existing flood control levee system in its design. A height increase of approximately 11 feet in these older structures was required to accommodate the final operating elevation at 197 feet and discontinued any overflow into the older pond structure that had been taken out of service. 1.3.3 1963/1970 Ash Pond The 1963/1970 Ash Pond is located south of the steam generation facilities and constructed so that the west dike walls are essentially parallel to the Cape Fear River. Its configuration was developed by extending the west and east dikes of the 1963 Ash Pond, constructing the southern dike at the current location, and breaching the south dike of the 1963 Ash Pond to allow sluiced CCW flow to fill the added pond area. The ash pond dikes range in height from 22 feet in the original 1963 section to about 27 feet in the 1970 section. Figure 3B shows a typical cross section of a 1970 Ash Pond dike. These dikes, particularly those along the Cape Fear River, are generally heavily vegetated with trees and brush cover on the upstream and downstream slopes. Available documentation Progress Energy provided indicates that the 1963/1970 Ash Ponds have a surface area of approximately 50 acres, most of which is forested with trees in a similar fashion to the dikes. Presently there is roughly 2 acres of open standing water that collects in a low area at the southern extremity of the pond. This water is generally storm water runoff from the present pond area and generally maintains a surface elevation approximately 7 to 10 feet below the southern dike crests. According to previous engineering reports, this ability to pond water and the likelihood of CCW in the pond bottom being exposed and transported via erosion or a dike failure is the basis for continued NCUC regulatory jurisdiction as a utility impoundment. 1.3.4 1956 Ash Pond The 1956 Ash Pond is the oldest of the Cape Fear Plant's liquid bome CCW impoundments and was in service impounding sluiced CCW until 1963. It is located to the north of the power U-Ll%r- -5- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina generation structures adjacent to the Haw River, and was constructed so that the southeast wall of the pond was a portion of the plant's flood control levee system. Its dike walls are on the order of about 20 feet tall from toe to crest and appear to have been constructed with fairly steep exterior slopes from 1.5:1 to approximately 1:1 (horizontal to vertical). At the time it was in operation, the CCW sluiced into the pond was primarily bottom ash and boiler slag because the technology to capture the lighter fly ash and fume materials did not exist. No documents were available detailing the basis of design or construction specifications. At present, the pond no longer impounds water and is overgrown with trees and heavy vegetation. 1.3.5 Other Impoundments There are no other impoundments at the Cape Fear Plant. 1.4 Previously Identified Safety Issues There have not been any documented unpermitted releases of CCW at the Cape Fear Plant facility associated with dike failures. There have been, however, some seepage, slope stability, and erosion issues in the past. These are identified in the following sections. 1.4.1 1985 Ash Pond The 1985 Ash Pond exhibited longitudinal cracking along the crest centerline in the north dike shortly after the pond was constructed but prior to being put into service. As much as a 2-inch vertical displacement between the center and outside of the dike was observed. Concurrently, numerous holes and subterranean tunnels were observed adjacent to the top of the slope in areas where unsuitable soil was wasted during construction. The centerline cracking was attributed to foundation soil consolidation beneath the embankment. A compacted clay cap above the cracks and an impervious roadway surface was the recommended and implemented repair. Erosion due rainwater infiltration was deemed to be the cause of the holes in the slope surface. a -Mr— -6- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina Longitudinal cracking along with slope surface erosion was also noted on the west and southwest dikes in 1990. The slope surface erosion and instability continues to be present. These areas have been repaired intermittently with compacted gravel. An independent slope stability study indicated that the factor of safety (about 1.35) is lower than typical design requirements (1.5) possibly giving rise to the continued distress in this area Ground cover loss, erosion, and excessive moisture has been observed along the west dike toe, adjacent to the railroad spur. According to Progress Energy's engineering consultant, the wet area is typically intermittent and associated with an old drainage swale that traversed that area of the dike, and caused some difficulty during construction. The consultant does not deem it to be a threat to embankment stability. The ground cover loss and erosion has been attributed to ineffective drainage in this area that causes water to back up prior to going beneath the double culverts under the railway spur. This is considered a maintenance issue and also not a threat to embankment stability. 1.4.2 1978 Ash Pond The 1978 Ash Pond has had an issue with shallow groundwater at the north dike toe in the area of the plant cooling towers. According to available documentation, this area was originally observed during pond construction as the subgrade was being stripped for the dike fill and noted after the pond was completed since 1986. In 1990, plant personnel installed a trench drain in this location to capture groundwater and convey it to a point beyond the dike toe adjacent to the cooling towers. Details regarding this construction are not available but a historical site observation of the open trench suggests that it is approximately 15 feet beyond the dike toe and 5 feet deep, excavated in what appeared to be alluvium. A 6-inch diameter pipe functions as the trench drain outlet. Periodic inspections have noted clear seepage from the pipe since it was installed and the facility's independent engineering consultant is of the opinion that the seepage does not pose a stability problem for the dike. a-w- -7- Draft Report Assessment of Dam Safety of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments Progress Energy Carolinas Cape Fear Plant Moncure, North Carolina The discharge canal adjacent to the toe of the ash pond had a large tree fall and rupture the soil in late 2006 — early 2007. This required placing a geotextile with rip -rap annoring in the area of the fall to stabilize the bank and protect against continued erosion. Though the dike toe is very close to discharge canal in this area, the tree fall and resulting soil rupture was not believed to be a detriment to the dike stability. Other large trees adjacent to the canal in this area were subsequently removed as a precautionary measure. Beaching erosion along the upstream face of the dikes in the open pond areas has been cited in previous field inspection reports. In some cases this erosion appears to have been linked to rodent burrowing activities. Typically the recommendation has been to repair these areas with compacted granular material or rip -rap. 1.4.3 1963/1970 Ash Pond In 1982, a slope failure occurred on the north end of the west dike in the 1963/1970 ash pond adaject to the Cape Fear River. According Progress Energy's engineering consultant (MACTEC), at that time it was proposed to repair the failure with a rip -rap berm placed at the dike toe on the banks of the river channel. As the repair was being implemented, construction activity initiated additional instability and deformation (possibly localized vibratory induced liquefaction) and the work was halted with only a portion of the proposed rip -rap being placed at the river's edge and base of the dike. An independent engineering review and analysis of the failure was completed after the partial repair construction was halted and concluded that the dike was acceptable because the pond had been inactive since 1970 and the dike was impounding mostly sedimented ash. 1.5 Site Geology Based on a review of available surficial and bedrock geology maps, and reports by others, the site is of the Upper Triassic age.

LOW HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property. X SIGNIFICANT HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or can impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be located in areas with population and significant infrastructure. HIGH HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation will probably cause loss of human life. DESCRIBE REASONING FOR HAZARD RATING CHOSEN: An uncontrolled release of CCW from this impoundment could possibly impact the Cape Fear River. Environmental impacts to the river and aquatic life is probable if any CCW would escape and reach the river. Any impact is likely to be low due to the completely vegetated and forested condition of the basin, and would have to occur as a result of an erosion of the dike and now dry CCW material, then transport via storm water runoff.

This memorandum is provided in response to your request for comment on the draft report regarding the subject facility. Additionally, it is noted that the Raleigh Regional Office of DWQ is scheduled to conduct an annual NPDES Wastewater Discharge Permit Inspection at the Cape Fear Steam Electric Power Plant on September 23, 2009. This inspection will be conducted to verify/determine the compliance status of this facility with the conditions and limitations specified in NPDES Wastewater Permit No. NC0003433 (this permit includes stormwater). Prior to the June 15, 2009 EPA visit at this facility, the Cape Fear Plant was inspected by DWQ staff on June 5, 2008 and January 5, 2006. While the facility was reported to be compliant with DWQ-SWP NPDES permit conditions, the 1985 ash pond was observed full of product/solids with little freeboard during both inspections. A facility response and attention to this issue was required and noted in (2) below.

The inspection of the impoundment dike at the 1956 inactive ash impoundment revealed evidence of concentrated stormwater flow to the Cape Fear River/Haw River, this area is located near confluence of these rivers. This impoundment is currently forested, densely covered by a trees and woody/shrub understory. However, storm -event overland flows have been allowed to concentrate and produce gullies and rills. These areas are eroding through the berm such that both stormwater and possibly CCW is conveyed to surface waters in response to storm event flows. These outfalls are not currently permitted, the closest permitted stormwater outfall to this area is SW-1 (to Shaddox Creek). This area must be addressed by the facility and this issue will be revisited during the 2009 annual NPDES Wastewater Inspection scheduled for September 23, 2009. (2) The impoundment inspection was also an opportunity to follow up on past observations noted in NPDES Wastewater Inspections from 2006 and 2008 on the active 1985 impoundment/ash pond. In 2007 work was completed to construct a "pond within a pond" at the active 1985 impoundment (historically referred to as the East/West Ash Pond). It was noted that this change would give an additional 4-6 years of storage capacity. However, as noted above, in the 2008 DWQ NPDES inspection it was reported that this may not be the case, because the pond was filling up quicker than anticipated. In a written response to the NPDES inspection Progress Energy Cape Fear facility responded as follows: (a) the pond will likely fill up between 1 to 2 years, which is dependent on generation and ash content of coal; (b) we will be adding a 10 Foot vertical extension to the ash pond that will add between 2 or 4 additional years based on generation and ash content of the coal; (c) there is currently an effort underway to determine areas where ash can beneficially be reused (such as industrial parks). It is evident that the active 1985 impoundment/ash pond is continuing to fill up to capacity and is cause for concern to the Raleigh Regional Office. (3) In keeping with the findings of your report, DWQ observed 3 inactive ash ponds that are located adjacent to Hall River that combines with the Deep River to form the main -stem Cape Fear River. We also observed 2 permitted ash ponds, one of which is the currently active ash pond that discharges under the current NPDES Discharge Permit. Accordingly, the landscape position of this facility includes Triassic Basin Soil System [Soils formed from sandstone and siltstone parent materials, with typically low infiltration rates, and high shrink swell potential] as well as floodplain-alluvial soils. Page 2 of 3 Cape Fear Impoundment RRO C cents As stated above, this facility is located immediately adjacent to the Cape Fear River. Also, a water supply watershed - critical area (the location of the City of Sanford surface water supply intake) is located approximately 3 miles downstream. Another water supply intake for the Town of Lillington is located approximately 18 miles downstream. The cover, side slopes and toe of ash ponds varied with respect to vegetation cover. Some areas had even aged growth of pine/hard woods, with shrub/herbaceous understory, while other areas had thick layer of Elaeagnus and Blackberry Briers. That said, certain portions of the site and berm walls were well maintained and stable, with a thick grassy cover. It was clear that large portions of the berms and side slopes are not maintained such that routine confident/detailed inspection of structural stability can be readily determined. If you have any questions or if I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

The facility was inspected by Stephanie Brixey on June 5, 2008 and reported compliant with Division standards for the 2008 NPDES Wastewater Inspection. A summary of the findings and comments noted during this inspection is available upon your request. I have the following comments: (1) The dam inspection provided an opportunity to better understand the NPDES stormwater outfalls at this site. We observed rills and erosion of the impoundment dike at the 1956 inactive ash impoundment that revealed evidence of concentrated stormwater flow to the Cape Fear River. This impoundment is currently covered by a mature forest of trees and brush. The closest permitted stormwater outfall to this area is SW-1. This area must be addressed by the facility and will be observed Page-1 again during the 2009 annual NPDES Wastewater Inspection scheduled for September 23, 2009. (2) The impoundment inspection was also an opportunity to follow up past observations noted in NPDES Wastewater Inspections from 2007 and 2008 on the active 1985 impoundment/ash pond. In 2007 work was completed to construct a pond within a pond at the active 1985 impoundment, then referred to as the East Ash Pond. It was noted that this change would give an additional 4-6 years of storage capacity, but in the 2008 inspection it was noted that this may not be the case, because the pond was filling up quicker than anticipated. The facility responded to the inspection findings as follows: (1) the pond will likely fill up between 1 to 2 years, which is dependent on generation and ash content of coal; (2) we will be adding a 10 Foot vertical extension to the ash pond; This will add between 2 or 4 additional years based on generation and ash content of the coal; (3) There is currently an effort underway to determine areas where ash can beneficially be reused (such as industrial parks). In regards to my observations the day of the impoundment inspection it was evident that the active 1985 impoundment/ash pond is continuing to fill up to capacity and is cause for concern to the Raleigh Regional Office and cause for concern as expressed by the CHA Company Inspectors with a rating of poor. If you have any questions or if I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Autumn Hoban-Romanski Environmental Senior Specialist Attachments Cc: Raleigh Regional Office — DWQ S WP and DLQ Files Page-2 COAL ASH IMPOUNDMENT INSPECTIONS Location: Progress Energy — Cape Fear Pant Chatham County Date: June 15-16, 2009 In response to the ash impoundment failure at the TVA Kingston facility, EPA used an existing contract with Lockheed -Martin to arrange inspections of coal ash impoundments at power plants having a rating of `Significant' or worse. Of 11 such sites in EPA Region 4, 8 are located in North Carolina. However, EPA staff noted that the ratings given the impoundments were by the N.C. Utilities Commission and based on severity IF a failure occurred, and not whether a failure was eminent. Solid Waste Section staff accompanied inspectors from Clough Harbour & Associates, LLP, (CHA), Albany, NY, during their inspection of ash impoundments at Progress Energy Cape Fear Power Plant on the above referenced date. Below is a summary of the visit. People present Progress Energy Subcontractor Ash Dike Inspectors Bill Forster Malcolm Hargraves—CHA John Toepfer Katy Adnams — CHA Robin Bryson Danny Wimberly Leigh Barr Others Davy Simonson — EPA, Region 4 Autumn Hoban —DWQ, Surface Water Protection (approved the NPDES permits) Elizabeth Werner —DWM, Solid Waste k �Geof Little — DWM, Solid Waste ) The Cape Fear plant ash impoundments have a `Significant' rating based on their proximity to the Cape Fear River. The EPA ordered the inspections to determine the condition of the active impoundment dikes and whether failure of the dikes is eminent. Cape Fear Power Plant has five ash impoundments. Three are closed while two are permitted and only one is actively receiving slurried ash. The impoundments are designated according to their date of construction: 1956, 1963, 1970, 1978 and 1985 (see attached figure). The '78 and '85 impoundments are permitted with the '85 impoundment being active. The two permitted ponds are inspected annually with a more detailed inspection every five years. The '56, '70 and '63 impoundments have established forests on top. The closed and permitted '78 impoundment has a vigorous growth of cat tails and a significant amount of standing water in the south end due to underutilization of storage capacity. The active '85 impoundment is constructed as a 'pond within a pond' where the upper portion, which receives slurried ash from the plant for dewatering, is diked higher than the lower portion, which receives supernatant water from the upper portion. The CHA inspectors verbally expressed concerns about the maintenance of all the dike slopes including the active '85 impoundment. They suggested mowing more frequently to remove tree growth, discourage the growth of reedy vegetation that do not improve erosion control, discourage burrowing animals, and to better detect potential problems. The southern and eastern slopes of the '85 dike are thick with undesirable brush and significant numbers of small trees. Of concern is a marshy area at a point in the western toe of the dikes and places in the northern toes that do not support vegetation. Cape Fear staff scheduled their consultants to view the areas Wednesday, June 17, 2009. Although not in the mandate, the CHA subcontractors also inspected the closed ash impoundment dikes and found numerous areas of sloughing and erosion rills particularly adjacent to the plant's process water discharge canal along the 1978 impoundment dike and along the western edge of the 1963/1970 impoundment dikes adjacent to the Cape Fear River. Those impoundments are inactive and are not threats to wash out with slurried ash. Those areas are to be inspected by Progress Energy's consultants as well. In general, no immediate threat to human health, safety the a viro pnt as noted at the active or inactive ponds. 0 PROGRESS ENERGY CAPE FEAR POWER PLANT IIDRAWN: _ MONCURE, NC NDFT CHECK: �"MACTEC rx�iiarr z Hoban, Autumn From: Kohler.James@epamaii.epa.gov Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 8:10 AM To: Little, Geof Cc: Hoban, Autumn; Mussler, Ed; Werner, Elizabeth; Lorscheider, Ellen; Frost, Larry Subject: RE: FW: Request for Review: Progress Energy - Cape Fear Plant Thank you for the comments below.

Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant NPDES Permit NC000343 r1 Replacement Ash Sluice Pumps and Pipeline 3 3 �}3 �/ Authorization to Construct Application File Point: 12520B Dear Mr. Pohlig: Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. proposes to replace the ash sluice pumps servicing Units 5 and 6 and replace a portion of the ash sluice piping from Unit 6 at the Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant in Moncure, North Carolina. Enclosed is the completed Authorization to Construct Application for this project. Currently, each unit operates two pumps (1,150 gallons per minute design capacity each) to supply water for sluicing coal ash from the unit to the ash settling pond. Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. proposes to replace each pump with a higher capacity pump (2,300 gallon per minute design capacity each). The new ash sluice pumps will have sufficient pumping capacity with only one pump operating per unit, allowing a second pump to serve as a back-up. Thus, the overall capacity of the system will not change. The replacement ash sluice pumps will be installed in the same locations in the plant as the existing ash sluice pumps 5A/5B and 6A/6B. This application also includes the replacement of 1,500 linear feet of above -grade ash sluice piping from Unit 6 to the ash pond. The piping is being changed from the existing 13-inch nominal outside diameter (10-inch inside diameter) Ceramcor pipe to new 16-inch nominal outside diameter (13-inch inside diameter) High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe. The new piping will be installed in the same location as the existing above -grade piping. Required information and catalogue cuts of the new pumps (including pump curves) and the new pipe section material are enclosed. We thank you in advance for your attention to our permitting needs. If there are any questions about this information please contact Ms. Robin Bryson by telephone at (919) 546-3962 or by email at robin.bryson@pgnmail.com. Progress Energy Carolinas, Ins.

Below is the description of the proposed project. Background The Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant is located on the east side of the Cape Fear River approximately 2 miles Southeast of Moncure, North Carolina in Chatham County. The latitude and longitude coordinates of the site are 35°35'30" north latitude and 78°57'20" west longitude, respectively (Figure 1). The plant is a coal fired steam electric plant. As a byproduct of burning coal, ash is produced. For both functioning power units at the plant (referred to as Unit 5 and Unit 6), the ash is sluiced with water and the sluice mixture is pumped to an ash settling pond in accordance with NPDES permit number NC000343 (enclosed). This ATC application addresses the installation of replacement ash sluice pumps for both Units 5 and 6, and 1,500 linear feet of above grade ash sluice piping from Unit 6. The existing ash sluice pumps, which are approximately 20 years old, are being replaced with newer pumps with sufficient hydraulic capacity to convey ash sluice to the existing ash pond. The existing 13-inch nominal outside diameter (10-inch inside diameter) Ceramcor pipe will be replaced with 16-inch nominal outside diameter (13-inch inside diameter) high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe. Further, the new piping will be consistent with the size and material for the existing piping leading from Unit 5. Proposed Project Information Spent ash from Units 5 and 6 is generated, both as bottom ash and fly ash depending on where the ash is collected from. For each unit, bottom ash from each unit is directed through a jet eductor nozzle which receives water from one of two vertical turbine water -supply pumps. The jet nozzle boosts the pressure of the bottom ash sluice sufficiently to transport the bottom ash sluice to a jet booster pump and ultimately to the ash pond. Fly ash is collected from the top of the units by inducing a vacuum through the hydroveyor using a water connection. The fly ash is then entrained in the water as an ash sluice. From the hydroveyor, the ash sluice mixture travels through an air separator where entrained air is removed. The ash sluice then flows by gravity to a jet booster pump (the same booster pump used for bottom ash) where additional water supply is used to facilitate transport of the fly ash sluice to the ash pond approximately 2,600 feet from the jet pump. Bottom ash and fly ash conveyance systems are not operated simultaneously. Either bottom ash or fly ash is collected and transported to the ash pond at one time. Water supply to facilitate the jet nozzle and booster operations and hydroveyor operation is currently supplied from the two sets of vertical turbine pumps (one set of two pumps for each of Units 5 and 6). These pumps draw their water ultimately from the Cape Fear River and are currently capable of pumping 1,150 gallons per minute each at a total dynamic head of 450 feet. These pumps are the subject of this ATC application. Due to flow requirements to properly operate the hydroveyor and jet booster pumps, it is necessary to have both existing pumps operating simultaneously for each system when pumping ash sluice, thus leaving the facility without redundant back-up capability. Automatically activated standby power supply onsite will provide power reliability as required by NCAC 2T .0505 (1). The proposed replacement ash sluice pumps for Unit 6 are manufactured by Tencarva, and each pump conforms to model number VIT-FFFM with a 9.625 inch impeller diameter and 4160V, 400 HP motor. Each pump is capable of producing up to 2,300 gallons per minute at 546 feet of total dynamic head. For Unit 5, the same pump model will be used except that the pump motor will be 575V and 400 HP. Automatically activated standby power supply onsite will provide power reliability as required by NCAC 2T .0505 (1). Electrical power and wiring will be field run through existing conduits by Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. personnel. The replacement ash sluice pumps will be installed in the same locations in the plant as the existing ash sluice pumps 5A/5B and 6A/6B. The existing pump pedestal for pump 5B will be replaced so that the pump discharge elevation for pump 5B is the same as pump 5A. This is being done to facilitate easier maintenance. In addition, this ATC application also includes the replacement of the last 1,500 feet of ash sluice discharge piping leading from Unit 6 to the ash pond. The existing 13-inch nominal outside diameter Ceramcor piping is being replaced with new 16-inch nominal outside diameter HDPE piping with a 160 psi pressure rating. The new pipe will correspond to ISCO Industries, LLC pipe model PE 3608/3408 DR 1 I pipe. The new piping will be installed in the same location as the existing above -grade piping. New pipe section material information is enclosed. No other changes will be made to the ash sluice systems under this project. Hydraulic Evaluation Drawings 1 and 2 show hydraulic profiles of ash sluice piping systems for Units 5 and 6, respectively. These drawings demonstrate that the proposed pumps are of sufficient size and capacity to convey ash sluice to the pond. Drawing 2 also shows where existing Ceramcor piping will be replaced with new HDPE piping. Tables 1 and 2 present the hydraulic model calculations associated with these drawings. Table 3 presents detailed hydraulic calculations demonstrating that the pumps and piping are adequate to convey ash sluice to the ash pond. Drawings 3, 4 and 5 provide installation details for the four replacement ash sluice pumps (5A, 513, 6A, and 613) and the replacement pedestal for pump 5B.

ISCO ISCO HDPE Product Catalog Important Standards for High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Pipe Standards important for HDPE pipe relate to the resin the pipe is made from and the scan dards related to manufacturing sizes and tolerances. The American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) standard for resin from which the pipe is made is ASTM D 3350.05, Standard Specification for Polyethylene Plastics Pipe and Fittings Materials. This standard defines the physical properties of the resin that the pipe is made from. Pipe dimensions and manufacturing requirements: ASTM F 714-06 Standard Specification for Polyethylene (PL) Pipe (SDR-PR) Based on Outside Diameter. This standard is used for most large diameter HDPE pipe (4" to 63") applications other than gas pipe. ASTM D 2613.05 Standard Specification for Thermoplastic Gas Pressure Pipe jubing and Fittings. Polyethylene pipe and other plastic for natural gas distribution are described in great detail in this standard. ASTM D 3036-03a Standard Specification for Polyethylene (PE) Plastic Pipe (DR -PR) Based on Controlled Outside Diameter. Most HDPE water tubing (1/2 inch to 3") is made t,, the dimensions in this standard. While pipe sizes up to 24" are provided, very little large diameter pipe is made to this standard.

IsCO HDPE Pipe 1-800-345-ISCO HDPE Pipe 1-800-345-ISCO ISCO HDPF IWMuct CataloU Specifications for HOPE Pipe The physical properties of high -density polyethylene pipe are described using ASTM 1) 3360- 05, "Standard Specification for Polyethylene Plastic Pipe and Fittings Materials". Recently this standard was changed. The two key areas changed are, density and slow /rack growth. In the 05 version, the cell classifications for density were increased howl fbut l ells to seven cells defining the density ranges for various resins. New high performance bimodal resins, PE 4710 resins, have higher PENT test values. Slow crack grow properties can now be defined using eight. cells. As of December 2006, most 11DPE pipe is made from resin with a cell classification of PE 3454640. The pipe is labeled as PE3403/3608.

In ASTM D 3360.06, low density PE is defined as hav- ing a density range of 0.919 to 0.925 g/cc; medium density has a range of 0.926 to 0,940 glee and high density is defined with a range from 0.941 to 0.966. All densities are without car- bon black. Density influences key properties In polyethylene materials. As the density increases, the tensile strength increases; also chemical resistance increases. Medium density PE resins have been used for gas distribution. This original selection was made based on superior slow crack growth properties of medium density resins. Medium density pipe is designated as PE 2406 and PE 2708. Today new bimodal resins are being used in gas distribution because of higher pressure rat- ings plus superior slow crack growth. These resins are designated PE 3408, PE 3608, PE 3708, PE 3710 and PE 4710. ® Copyright 2007 ISCO Industries, I.I.C. All Rights Renem& I ISCO /SCO 9DP8 Product Catalog Slow Crack Growth The Pent test is used to determine stress crack resistance for PE resins. The PENT test is conducted in accordance with ASTM F 1473, "Standard That Method for Notch Tensile Test to Measure the Resistance to Slow Crack Growth of Polyethylene Pipes and Resins". This test uses a solid sample of material which is notched and tested. The PENT test is a good test of slow crack growth. Scratches and gouges can cause crack propagation. Materials with high PENT numbers are less likely to fail because of slow crack growth. Traditional PE 3408/3608 resins have PENT test values of about 100 hours. New bimodal resins used to make PE 3710 and PE 4710 pipes have values ranging from 600 hours to sever- al thousand hours. Physical Properties of PE 4710 HDPE pipe with a designation of PE 4710 is made from resin with a cell classification of PE 446474C or PE 445574C. We suggest using a specification calling for a minimum cell classifi- cation of PE 445474 C or higher. Both cell classifications can be used if specified in this way. The pipe is labeled as PE 4710.

This final permit includes the following major changes from the draft permit sent to you on March 29, 2006: Outfall 008 and stormwater outfalls SW-1, SW-2, SW-3, and SW-4 were added back to the pen -nit. The monitoring frequencies for Total Arsenic and Total Selenium have been reduced to semi- annually for Outfall 001 to be consistent with the monitoring requirements for Outfall 005. After additional review of the RPA, the Division made a decision to add a weekly average limit for selenium (5.6 ug/L) for Outfall 007. However, because of the limit addition the selenium speciation and fish tissue monitoring requirements are eliminated. In addition, the facility is allowed 18 months from the effective date of the permit to comply with the Total Selenium limit. This time period is allowed in order for the facility to budget and design/construct the treatment system. The Division believes that allowed time is sufficient to comply with the newly imposed selenium limit. The Division has reviewed your request to reduce monitoring frequency for selenium for Outfall 007 and remove the selenium weekly average limit. These requests cannot be granted. The Division appreciates corrections made by the Progress Staff in the selenium data used for the Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA). However, it is necessary to emphasize that these corrections were already considered by the Division after they were communicated to us by Mr. Cahoon of Progress Energy Letter to Nlr. Whisnant, pagvI N. C. Division of Water Duality / NPDES Unit Phone: (919) 733,M 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 fax: (919) 733-0719 Internet: h2o.enr.state.naus DENRCustomer Service Center. 1800623.7748 on April 18, 2006. During the extended telephone conversation on April 18, 2006 between Mr. Cahoon of Progress Energy and Dr. Sergei Chernikov of DWQ it was conveyed to Mr. Cahoon that even after corrections have been made, the RPA still indicates potential for violation of the selenium water quality standard. The number calculated by Progress Energy is 22.7 µg/L, it significantly exceeds the allowed concentration for selenium, which is 5.6 µg/L. Therefore, based on the RPA results, the Division increased monitoring frequency for selenium, and added the weekly average selenium limit. Your latest request to remove one of the data points (6.6 µg/L) cannot be granted. EPA guidance allows removal of the data point from RPA only in cases of laboratory or sampling errors. In this case, the data point was obtained as a result of the conditions that actually have occurred at the plant. In addition, even if the 6.6 µg/L is removed from the consideration, the RPA still predicts potential violation of the water quality standard. Your request to remove monitoring requirements for fecal colifomms at Outfall 005 cannot be granted These requirements were added at the insistence of the Division of Environmental Health, which has a concern that your discharge might have a negative effect on the water intake downstream. If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory bearing 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. If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Sergei Chernikov at telephone number (919) 733-5083, extension 594. cc: Central Files NPDES Files Raleigh Regional Office / Surface Water Protection Section Aquatic Toxicology Unit Mr. Roosevelt Childress, EPA Region IV Environmental Sciences Section, Biological Assessment Unit Permit NC0003433 STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY PERMIT TO DISCHARGE WASTEWATER UNDER THE NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIDIINATION SYSTEM In compliance with the provisions of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1, other lawful standards and regulations promulgated and adopted by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission, and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended, Carolina Power and Light d/b/a/ Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. is hereby authorized to discharge wastewater from a facility located at the Cape Fear Steam Electric Generating Plant 500 CP&L Road Moncure Chatham County to receiving waters designated as an unnamed tributary to the Cape Fear River (outfalls 001, 003, 005, 007, and SW-4), the Cape Fear River (outfall 008) and Shaddox Creek (outfalls SW-1, SW-2, and SW-3) in the Cape Fear River Basin in accordance with effluent limitations, monitoring requirements, and other conditions set forth in Parts I, II and III hereof.

Calendar Dav The period `tom midnight of one day until midnight of the nest day. HOwecer, for purposes of this permit may consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. Calendar Quarto One of the following distinct periods: January through Max* April through June, Jury through September, and October through December. Composite Samule A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time in[ervai between grab samples, etc) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous; a single contnuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow- (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the ate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of gab samples of equal vohtme collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (4) Constant rime/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval- This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. Version 62012003 NPDES Permit Requirement: Page 2 of It In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment system having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected a intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of th, system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours no,. the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period - Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption_ throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall b, monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenanu activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents rh< calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge' is calculated 2-- the total mass of the'pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" cotcentration comprises the mear concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of al grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 1223) Dail Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Daily Sampling Parametcs requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per weep unless otherwise specified in the permit.

Sullins, Director Division of Water Quality RE: Renewal of the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association's Memorandum of Agreement NPDES Permit Notification for Instream Monitoring NC0003433 Cape Fear Steam Electric Plant Chatham County Dear Ms. Wilson: For the past ten years, the members of the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association (MCFRBA) have broadened understanding of the watershed through water quality monitoring. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) greatly appreciates the association's continued support of the monitoring and the time and expertise contributed by its members. By this letter the DWQ confirms the waiving of instream monitoring requirements within your individual NPDES permit in exchange for the MCFRBA's monitoring of the watershed as specified within the renewed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) effective July 1, 2008. The agreement identifies the stations, parameters, and frequency of monitoring required of the association in order to maintain the instream monitoring waivers for your individual permits. Effluent monitoring requirements are not affected. Should your membership in the association be terminated, you must notify DWQ immediately and the instream monitoring requirements in your permit will be reinstated. All other terms and conditions in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. These modifications are 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. If you have any questions regarding this letter or the coalition, please contact Jennie Atkins at (919) 743-8410 or atjennie.atkins@ncmail.net. Sincerely, 'PA owc Coleen H.

To treat the algal bloom, about 1.2 gallons of algaecide would be added to the basin (approximately 712,000 gallons). The discharge from this basin flows to the west ash pond where additional dilution will occur before flowing into the effluent channel and ultimately to the Cape Fear River. A letter is being submitted to the NPDES Unit for approval to add two potential algaecides to Attachment 4 of the NPDES Permit application. Please respond with a concurrence of my understanding.

Specifically, item number 6 asked for a written response to the following questions: How much time does the facility have before the ash pond is full with the ash pond as is? Answer: The pond will likely fill up between 1 to 2 years, which is dependent on generation and ash content of the coal. 2. Does the facility plan to do additional work to extend the life of the pond before cleaning? Answer: We will be adding a 10 foot vertical extension to the ash pond. This will add between 2 or 4 additional years based on generation and ash content of the coal. 3. When the ash pond is cleaned how will the ash be disposed? Answer: There is currently an effort underway to determine areas where ash can beneficially be reused (such as industrial parks). Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Leigh Barr at (919) 774-5208.

Box 33726 Raleigh, NC 27636-3726 RE: Proposed Stream Crossings for Natural Gas Pipeline in Chatham County PSNC Energy, Manns Chapel Road, Tobacco Road, River Forest Road, Chapel Hill, NC (Project Site) PSNC Energy, Gastonia, NC (Corporate Office) Dear Monte and Dale: PSNC Energy, a natural gas utility based in Gastonia, NC, is proposing to construct a natural gas pipeline along Manns Chapel Road, Tobacco Road, and River Forest Road just southwest of Chapel Hill in northern Chatham County. As part of this construction, there are two known or identified stream crossings, Wilkinson Creek and an umaamed tributary to Wilkinson Creek, which are necessary to cross to provide natural gas service to proposed new customers along this route. This new natural gas pipeline will provide service to newly proposed residential subdivisions to be located off of Maims Chapel Road and River Forest Road known as Manns Crossing and Harrison Pond. The crossing of these streams will be accomplished using horizontal directional drilling or HDD technology. The use of HDD technology is more environmentally friendly and causes fewer disturbances than other conventional methods. As with any crossing, if there is sufficient soil coverage on top of the roadway culvert, then trenching across the top of the culvert, between the culvert and the roadway, may also be an option; however, no actual trenching across the stream will occur. w a As you may know, this area is located within the Cape Fear River Basin. The Cape Fear River Basin does not have a riparian buffer rule; however, perpendicular stream crossings are exempt from such buffer rule requirements. It is my understanding of the Corps of Engineers (COE) Water Quality Regulations, including the 401/404 regulations, that no permitting is required for HDD-type stream crossing nor open -cut trenching projects less than 150 linear feet in width (which would qualify for coverage under the NWP-12 Permit without a mitigation proposal). There is a Regional Permit Condition which states: "Pipeline/utility line construction through jurisdictional waters and wetlands will be accomplished utilizing directional drilling/boring methods to the maximum extent practicable." If PSNC determines that drilling is not practicable, we will notify the Corps prior to any such change. Wilkinson Creek and the unnamed tributary to Wilkinson Creek would not be considered commercial navigable waterways. In addition, HDD-type crossings are not regulated as well. There is one known endangered species of aquatic life, the Cape Fear shiner, that may be located in or along Wilkinson Creek or the tributary to Wilkinson Creek. However, since HDD technology is being used for this stream crossing, no impacts to any potential habitat or population is expected. If there is any change to the type of stream crossing, such as trenching rather than HDD, a formal Endangered Species Survey would be performed in these stream areas. The following species' are listed as either endangered or threatened in Chatham County: red -cockaded woodpecker (endangered), Cape Fear shiner (endangered), the bald eagle (threatened), and Harperella (endangered plant). In addition, the following are listed as federal species of concern: American eel, Bachman's sparrow, Carolina darter, Carolina redhorse (all vertebrates), Atlantic pigtoe, Brook Floater, Carolina creekshell, Septima's clubtail, and yellow lampmussel (all invertebrates), Buttercup phacelia, sweet pinesap, and Virginia quillwort (all vascular plants). It is not expected that any species besides possibly the Cape Fear shiner is within the proposed project site; however, if any of these species is encountered, work will be stopped and the habitat evaluated. Using HDD technology will not disturb any aquatic life. No trees will be removed during this project. PSNC has an aggressive environmental compliance program and specific policies and procedures in place to address such stream crossings. PSNC is submitting this letter as information only regarding our proposed project; this letter is also being submitted to NCDENR's Water Quality Section Regional Office in Raleigh, NC for informational purposes as well. PSNC has submitted our Erosion and sedimentation Control (E&SC) Plan to NCDENR's Raleigh Regional Office — Land Quality Section for review and approval. PSNC will adhere to the requirements outlined in the Nationwide 12 Permit issued and regulated by the Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District as well as the conditions outlined in WQC #3374 as issued by NCDENR. PSNC has a strict management policy with regard to erosion control measures and procedures. While these proposed stream crossings do not require a specific Erosion and Sedimentation Control (E&SC) Plan from NCDENR's Land Quality section, PSNC will follow all applicable erosion and sedimentation control measures and install appropriate erosion control measures (i.e., silt fences, etc.) to minimize sedimentation impacts to the area, specifically from the drilling equipment and associated ancillary equipment. n-I a Should you have any questions or require additional information regarding this proposed stream crossing or submittal, please feel to contact me at (704) 810-3115 or you can also contact me by e-mail at keniohnson(@,scana.com Thank you for your assistance with these matters.
