Dear Ms. Davis:

Subject: Final NPDES Permit Renewal
Permit NCO043532
West Stanly WWTP
Stanly County
Grade III Biological WPCS
SIC Code 4952
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit.
Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the
requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement
between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007
(or as subsequently amended).
Please note that the receiving streams are listed as impaired for copper and zinc on the North
Carolina 2016 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.
The following changes were made to the draft permit sent to you on May 2, 2018:
The facility classification has been added to the titles in Special Conditions A. (1), (2), &
(3).
The final permit maintains the following significant changes identified in the letter sent on
May 2, 2018:
• The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standards (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC
Environmental Management Committee (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Water Resources
512 North Salisbury Street 11617 Mail Service Center I Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
91.9.707.9000
subsequently approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016 with some exceptions. The NC
Division of Water Resources NPDES Permitting Unit is required to implement the new dissolved
metal standards in all permits public noticed after April 6, 2016. The new standards for most
metals include acute standards. Further, the freshwater standards for several metals are expressed
as the dissolved form of the metals, and seven metals have hardness -dependent equations.
As a result, the NPDES Permitting Unit will need site -specific effluent hardness data and
instream hardness data, upstream of the discharge, for each facility monitoring these metals in
order to calculate permit limitations. Effluent hardness and instream hardness sampling,
upstream of the discharge, has been added to this permit at a monitoring frequency of quarterly.
See Section A. (1) Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements.
• Total copper and zinc monitoring have been changed to quarterly monitoring. A reasonable
potential analysis did not indicate potential to violate the WQS, however, both receiving streams
are impaired for copper and one for zinc, therefore monitoring will be maintained until the
streams can be re-evaluated under the new WQS or a TMDL is in place to address the
impairments. Additionally, in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B .0500 all test procedures must
produce detection and reporting levels that are below the permit discharge requirements and all
data generated must be reported to the approved detection level or lower reporting level of the
procedure. Currently, DWR's laboratory identifies the Practical Quantitation Limit (PQL) for
total copper at <2 µg/L and total zinc at <10 µg/L. Using these values as benchmarks, future
sampling for total copper and zinc should sample to these lower reporting levels.
• In a limited dataset, bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and cyanide showed reasonable potential to
violate WQS in Long Creek via emergency Outfall 001 and quarterly monitoring for these
parameters has been added to that outfall. See Section A. (2).
• Emergency Outfall 001 has been removed upon expansion to 1.2 MGD. Upon expansion to 1.2
MGD, BOD, ammonia, and dissolved oxygen limits change and total nitrogen and phosphorous
sampling are increased to monthly. See Section A. (3). After expansion, the facility will have to
perform three seasonal effluent pollutant scans during the permit cycle and four second species
toxicity tests prior to permit renewal in accordance with 40 CFR 122.216)(5). See Section A. (5).
• Instream monitoring for conductivity has been removed due to lack of industrial dischargers and a
pretreatment program.
• Some of the wording in A. (4) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT has been updated, please
review carefully. The changes include a 6.0% effluent concentration at 1.2 MGD.
• Special condition A. (6) EFFLUENT MERCURY ANALYSIS has been added to the permit
requiring at least one low level mercury analysis using EPA Method 1631 E within 12 months
prior to the permit renewal application date until expansion to 1.2 MGD.
• Federal program reports. The requirement to continue reporting discharge monitoring data
electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet
application has been added to your NPDES permit. [See Special Condition A. (7)] regulations
require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and
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
Resources or any other Federal, State, or Local governmental permits that may be required.

The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant
mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 4.6% for a permitted flow of 0.9
MGD and 6.0% for a permitted flow of 1.2 MGD from Outfa11002. An effluent concentration of
30.0% shall be used for a permitted flow of 0.9 MGD from Outfall 001.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined
in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised December
2010, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test
Procedure" (Revised- December 2010) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during
the months of January, April, July, and October. These months signify the first month of
each three-month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing
must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and 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 -December 2010) 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,
DWR Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1623 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1623
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water Sciences Section no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete, 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 Water Sciences Section at the address cited above.
Page 10 of 15
Permit NCO043532
Should the . permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required,
monitoring will be required during the following month. Assessment of toxicity compliance is
based on the toxicity testing quarter, which is the three month time interval that begins on the first
(Continued A. (4) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY))
day of the month in which toxicity testing is required by this permit and continues until the final
day of the third month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Water Resources 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.
A. (5) EFFLUENT POLLUTANT SCAN
[G.S.143-215.1(b)]
Once the 1.2 MGD limitation page is effective, the Permittee shall perform a total of three (3) Effluent Pollutant
Scans for all parameters listed below. Based on the time between the 1.2 MGD effective date and when the
renewal application is submitted, the three scans will be conducted at equal intervals so the data can be
incorporated in the renewal application. Analytical methods shall be in accordance with 40 CFR Part 136 and
shall be sufficiently sensitive to determine whether parameters are present in concentrations greater than
applicable standards and criteria. Samples should be collected with one quarterly toxicity test each scan, and
must represent seasonal variation [i.e., do not sample in the same quarter every year]. Unless otherwise
indicated, metals shall be analyzed as "total recoverable."

Additional Toxicity Testing Requirements for Municipal Permit Renewal. Please note that Municipal
facilities that are subject to the Effluent Pollutant Scan requirements listed above are also subject to
additional toxicity testing requirements specified in Federal Regulation 40 CFR 122.216)(5). The US EPA
requires four (4) toxicity tests for a test organism other than the test species currently required in this permit.
The multiple species tests should be conducted either quarterly for a 12-month period prior to submittal of
the permit renewal application, or four tests perfoimed at least annually in the four and one half year period
prior to the next renewal application. These tests shall be performed for acute or chronic toxicity, whichever
is specified in this permit. The multiple species toxicity test results shall be filed with the Aquatic
Toxicology Branch at the following address:
North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1623 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1623
Contact the Division's Aquatic Toxicology Branch at 919-743-8401 for guidance on conducting the
additional toxicity tests and reporting requirements. Results should also be summarized in Part E (Toxicity
Testing Data) of EPA Municipal Application Form 2A, when submitting the permit renewal application to
the NPDES Permitting Unit.
A. (6) EFFLUENT MERCURY ANALYSIS
[G.S.143-215.3(a)(2), G.S.143-215.66]
If no Effluent Pollutant Scans are required in conjunction with the next permit renewal, the
Permiee shall provide in conjunction with the next permit renewal application a minimum of one
effluent mercury analysis using EPA Method 1631 E determined within 12 months prior to the
Page 12 of 15

application date. Any additional effluent mercury measurements conducted from the effective date
of this permit and up to the application date shall also be submitted with the renewal application.
If the mercury analysis is not provided with the application, the application may be returned as
incomplete and the Permittee considered non -compliant.
A. (7) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING
REPORTS [G.S.143-215.1(b)]
Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and
program reports. The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted and became effective
on December 21, 2015.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of
this permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)1
The permittee shall report discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's
Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each
month and submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted
facilities to enter monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until
such time that the state's eDMR application is compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic
Reporting Regulation (CROMERR), permittees will be required to submit all discharge
monitoring data to the state electronically using eDMR and will be required to complete the
eDMR submission by printing, signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the
computer printed eDMR to the following address: '
NC DENR / Division of Water Resources / Water Quality Permitting Section
ATTENTION: Central Files
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the
facility being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have
broadband access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements may be granted and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper
DMR forms (MR 1, 1. 1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate
signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above. See "How to Request a
Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
Page 13 of 15
Permit NCO043532
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due on the last day of the month
following the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the
month following the commencement of discharge.
Starting on December 21, 2020, the permittee must electronically report the following
compliance monitoring data and reports, when applicable:
Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.
The permittee may seek an electronic reporting waiver from the Division (see "How to
Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below).
2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1)(9), the permittee must identify the initial recipient at
the time of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the EPA's website
resources to identify the initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES-regulated facilities means the
entity (EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES program) that is the
designated entity for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)).
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic reporting tool
for each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions on how to access and
use the appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as well. Information on EPA's
NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule is found at:
hgps://www.federalregister. Gov/documents/2015/10/22/2015-24954/national-pollutant-
discharize-elimination-s sty em-npdes-electronic-reportin -rule
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting Requirements" section
above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To
obtain an electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic reporting
waiver request to the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting waivers must be
submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the
date the facility would be required under this permit to begin submitting monitoring data and
reports. The duration of a temporary waiver shall not exceed 5 years and shall thereupon
expire. At such time, monitoring data and reports shall be submitted electronically to the
Division unless the permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary electronic
reporting waiver by the Division. Approved electronic reporting waivers are not
transferrable. Only permittees with an approved reporting waiver request may submit
monitoring data and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the approved
reporting waiver request is effective.

Briefly describe the proposed permitting action and facility background: Stanly County has applied for
an NPDES permit renewal for 0.9 MGD, and for a modification to rerate the existing facility to
expand in the future to 1.2 MGD, for the West Stanly WWTP (formerly Oakboro WWTP) in
February 2014. The application included the required EAA for the expansion. This facility serves
Page 1 of 11
as a regional facility for a population of 6,400 residents for the communities of Oakboro, Stanfield,
and Locust.
The facility has a primary Outfall 002 and an emergency Outfall 001, each outfall impacts different
receiving streams. Discharge from Outfall 002 requires the operation of effluent pumps to transfer
the treated wastewater via a pressure sewer to Rocky River. Discharge from Outfall 001 is an
emergency gravity overflow from the effluent pump station to Long Creek. Mechanical issues that
have resulted in the historical episodic discharge from the emergency overflow will be resolved as
part of the expansion design/constructions. Upon expansion to 1.2 MGD the facility's Outfall 001
will be no longer be considered as an active discharge.
This segment of the Yadkin -Pee Dee River that receives the discharge from Outfalls 001 and 002 is
downstream from High Rock Lake. West Stanly is an active member of the Yadkin -Pee Dee River
Basin Association.
A speculative letter was issued in 2005 for a proposed expansion to 1.2 MGD for this facility based
on a QUAL2E model prepared for Rocky River and Mallard Creek. The speculative limits are still
valid and will be applied in this permit.

4. Instream Data Summary
Instream monitoring may be required in certain situations, for example: 1) to verify model predictions
when model results for instream DO are within 1 mg/l of instream standard at full permitted flow; 2) to
verify model predictions for outfall diffuser; 3) to provide data for future TMDL; 4) based on other
instream concerns. Instream monitoring may be conducted by the Permittee, and there are also
Monitoring Coalitions established in several basins that conduct instream sampling for the Permittee (in
which case instream monitoring is waived in the permit as long as coalition membership is maintained).
If applicable, summarize any instream data and what instream monitoring will be proposed for this
permit action: The current permit requires instream monitoring for dissolved oxygen and
temperature. West Stanly is a member of the Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin Association and as such
instream monitoring was waived. Currently there are no instream monitoring stations active
downstream of either outfall.
Is this facility a member of a Monitoring Coalition with waived instream monitoring (YIN): Yes
Name of Monitoring Coalition: Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin Association
5. Compliance Summary
Summarize the compliance record with permit effluent limits (past S years): During Oakboro
ownership, February 2010 to February 2014, there were 29 limit violations. Oakboro paid $1,363 in
fines. Since the transfer of ownership to Stanly County in March 2014 the facility has had 53 limit
violations (BOD, ammonia, TSS, fecal coliform) and paid $10,480 in fines.
Summarize the compliance record with aquatic toxicity test limits and any second species test results
(past S years): The facility passed 20 of the last 20 quarterly chronic toxicity tests (14 under current
permittee Stanly County). As a minor facility, no second species testing is required.
Summarize the results from the most recent compliance inspection: The last facility inspection
conducted in 2016 reported that the facility was having operational issues from high influent BOD
and NH3-N loading, and visible effluent clarity issues, as the result of a recently accepted
wastewater stream from Enterprises Rendering. Acceptance of the Enterprise Rendering
wastewater was terminated by the Permittee at the direction of The Mooresville Regional Office.
6. Water Quality -Based Effluent Limitations (WQBELs)
Dilution and Mixing Zones
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0206, the following streamflows are used for dilution considerations
for development of WQBELs: 1 Q 10 streamflow (acute Aquatic Life); 7Q 10 streamflow (chronic Aquatic
Life; non -carcinogen HH); 30Q2 streamflow (aesthetics); annual average flow (carcinogen, HH).
If applicable, describe any other dilution factors considered (e.g., based on CORMLY model results): NA
If applicable, describe any mixing zones established in accordance with 1 SA NCAC 2B.0204(b): NA
Oxygen -Consuming Waste Limitations
Limitations for oxygen -consuming waste (e.g., BOD) are generally based on water quality modeling to
ensure protection of the instream dissolved oxygen (DO) water quality standard. Secondary TBEL limits
Page 4 of 11
(e.g., BOD= 30 mg/1 for Municipals) may be appropriate if deemed more stringent based on dilution and
model results.
Ifpermit limits are more stringent than TBELs, describe how limits were developed. Limitations for 0.9
MGD to Outfall 002 for BOD and NH3-N are based on a Streeter Phelps model (Level B) for
instream DO protection. No changes are proposed from the previous permit limits.
In 2005 a QUAL2E model was prepared for Rocky River and Mallard Creek applying a 1.2 MGD
discharge from this facility. The resulting limits are defined in Table 1.2 MGD and will be applied
to Outfall 002:

Ammonia and Total Residual Chlorine Limitations
Limitations for ammonia are based on protection of aquatic life utilizing an ammonia chronic criterion of
1.0 mg/l (summer) and 1.8 mg/1(winter). Acute ammonia limits are derived from chronic criteria,
utilizing a multiplication factor of 3 for Municipals and a multiplication factor of 5 for Non -Municipals.
Limitations for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) are based on the NC water quality standard for protection
of aquatic life (17 ug/1) and capped at 28 ug/1(acute impacts). Due to analytical issues, all TRC values
reported below 50 ug/1 are considered compliant with their permit limit.
Describe any proposed changes to ammonia and/or TRC limits for this permit renewal: There are no
proposed changes for the current 0.9 MGD flow.
Reasonable Potential Analysis RPA) for Toxicants
If applicable, conduct RPA analysis and complete information below.
The need for toxicant limits is based upon a demonstration of reasonable potential to exceed water quality
standards, a statistical evaluation that is conducted during every permit renewal utilizing the most recent
effluent data for each outfall. The RPA is conducted in accordance with 40 CFR 122.44 (d) (i). The NC
RPA procedure utilizes the following: 1) 95% Confidence Level/95% Probability; 2) assumption of zero
background; 3) use of %z detection limit for "less than" values; and 4) stream flows used for dilution
consideration based on 15A NCAC 2B.0206. Effective April 6, 2016, NC began implementation of
dissolved metals criteria in the RPA process in accordance with guidance titled NPDES Implementation of
Instream Dissolved Metals Standards, dated June 10, 2016.
A reasonable potential analysis was conducted on effluent toxicant data collected between May 2013 and
November 2017. Pollutants of concern included toxicants with positive detections and associated water
quality standards/criteria. Based on this analysis, the following permitting actions are proposed for this
permit:
• Effluent Limit with Monitoring. The following parameters will receive a water quality -based
effluent limit (WQBEL) since they demonstrated a reasonable potential to exceed applicable
water quality standards/criteria: None
Page 5 of 12
Monitoring Only. The following parameters will receive a monitor -only requirement since they
did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria,
but the maximum predicted concentration was >50% of the allowable concentration: Bis(2-
ethylhexyl)phthalate and cyanide will be monitored quarterly for the emergency outfall
001. Though they didn't exhibit reasonable potential, copper and zinc will be monitored
quarterly based on BPJ due to stream impairments.
No Limit or Monitoring: The following parameters will not receive a limit or monitoring, since
they did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality
standards/criteria and the maximum predicted concentration was <50% of the allowable
concentration: Total phenolic compounds.
POTW Effluent Pollutant Scan Review: The effluent pollutant data summarized in the renewal
application were evaluated for additional pollutants of concern.
o The following parameter(s) will receive a water quality -based effluent limit (WQBEL)
with monitoring, since as part of a limited data set, two samples exceeded the allowable
discharge concentration: None
o The following parameter(s) will receive a monitor -only requirement, since as part of a
limited data set, one sample exceeded the allowable discharge concentration: None
If applicable, attach a spreadsheet of the RPA results as well as a copy of the Dissolved Metals
Implementation Fact Sheet for freshwater/saltwater to this Fact Sheet. Include a printout of the RPA
Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator sheet if this is a Municipality with a Pretreatment Program.
Toxicity Testing Limitations
Permit limits and monitoring requirements for Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) have been established in
accordance with Division guidance (per WET Memo, 8/2/1999). Per WET guidance, all NPDES permits
issued to Major facilities or any facility discharging "complex" wastewater (contains anything other than
domestic waste) will contain appropriate WET limits and monitoring requirements, with several
exceptions. The State has received prior EPA approval to use an Alternative WET Test Procedure in
NPDES permits, using single concentration screening tests, with multiple dilution follow-up upon a test
failure.
Describe proposed toxicity test requirement: Will continue quarterly testing chronic WET limit at
4.6% effluent for 0.9 MGD and will add testing for a chronic Wet limit at 6.0% effluent
concentration for expansion to 1.2 MGD.
Mercury Statewide TMDL Evaluation
There is a statewide TMDL for mercury approved by EPA in 2012. The TMDL target was to comply
with EPA's mercury fish tissue criteria (0.3 mg/kg) for human health protection. The TMDL established a
wasteload allocation for point sources of 37 kg/year (81 lb/year), and is applicable to municipals and
industrial facilities with known mercury discharges. Given the small contribution of mercury from point
sources (^-2% of total load), the TMDL emphasizes mercury minimization plans (MMPs) for point source
control. Municipal facilities > 2 MGD and discharging quantifiable levels of mercury (> 1 ng/1) will
receive an MMP requirement. Industrials are evaluated on a case -by -case basis, depending if mercury is a
pollutant of concern. Effluent limits may also be added if annual average effluent concentrations exceed
the WQBEL value (based on the NC WQS of 12 ng/1) and/or if any individual value exceeds a TBEL
value of 47 ng/l
Describe proposed permit actions based on mercury evaluation: The single mercury analysis that was
submitted showed no detect but was not applicable as it did not use test Method 1631E. A special
Page 6 of 11
condition will be added to this permit that will require at a minimum that one effluent mercury
measurement using test method 1631E must be submit in conjunction with the next permit renewal.
If the facility expands prior to the next renewal multiple mercury measurement will be submitted as
part of the required effluent pollutant scans.
Other TMDL/Nutrient Management Strategy Considerations
If applicable, describe any other TMDLs/Nutrient Management Strategies and their implementation
within this permit: NA.
Other W BEL Considerations
If applicable, describe any other parameters of concern evaluated for WQBELs: NA
If applicable, describe any special actions (HQW or ORYF9 this receiving stream and classification shall
comply with in order to protect the designated waterbody: NA
If applicable, describe any compliance schedules proposed for this permit renewal in accordance with
15A NCAC 2H. 01 07(c)(2)(B), 40CFR 122.47, and EPA May 2007 Memo: If applicable, describe any
water quality standards variances proposed in accordance with NCGS 143-215.3(e) and 15A NCAC
2B.0226 for this permit renewal: NA
7. Technology -Based Effluent Limitations (TBELs)
Municipals
Are concentration limits in the permit at least as stringent as secondary treatment requirements (30 mg/1
BOD51TSS for Monthly Average, and 45 mgq for BOD51TSS for Weekly Average). YES
If NO, provide a justification for alternative limitations (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA
Are 85% removal requirements for BOD51TSS included in the permit? YES
If NO, provide a justif cation (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA
If any limits are based on best professional judgement (BPJ), describe development: NA
Document any TBELs that are more stringent than WQBELs: NA
Document any TBELs that are less stringent than previous permit: NA
8. Antidegradation Review (New/Expanding Discharge):
The objective of an antidegradation review is to ensure that a new or increased pollutant loading will not
degrade water quality. Permitting actions for new or expanding discharges require an antidegradation
review in accordance with 15A NCAC 213.0201. Each applicant for a new/expanding NPDES permit
must document an effort to consider non -discharge alternatives per 15A NCAC 2H.0105( c)(2). In all
cases, existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing use is
maintained and protected.
Page 7 of 11
If applicable, describe the results of the antidegradation review, including the Engineering Alternatives
Analysis (EAA) and any water quality modeling results:
Based on the projected population growth in the facility's service area demand will exceed the
current 0.9 MGD capacity by 2026. The EAA to evaluate several alternatives as well as expansion
of the existing permitted facility to add 0.3 MGD capacity is summarized below:

9. Antibacksliding Review:
Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(1) prohibit
backsliding of effluent limitations in NPDES permits. These provisions require effluent limitations in a
reissued permit to be as stringent as those in the previous permit, with some exceptions where limitations
may be relaxed (e.g., based on new information, increases in production may warrant less stringent TBEL
limits, or WQBELs may be less stringent based on updated RPA or dilution).
Are any effluent limitations less stringent than previous permit (YES/NO): NO
If YES, confirm that antibacksliding provisions are not violated: NA
10. Monitoring Requirements
Monitoring frequencies for NPDES permitting are established in accordance with the following
regulations and guidance: 1) State Regulation for Surface Water Monitoring, 15A NCAC 2B.0500; 2)
NPDES Guidance, Monitoring Frequency for Toxic Substances (7/15/2010 Memo); 3) NPDES Guidance,
Reduced Monitoring Frequencies for Facilities with Superior Compliance (10/22/2012 Memo); 4) Best
Professional Judgement (BPJ). Per US EPA (Interim Guidance, 1996), monitoring requirements are not
considered effluent limitations under Section 402(o) of the Clean Water Act, and therefore anti -
backsliding prohibitions would not be triggered by reductions in monitoring frequencies.
For instream monitoring, refer to Section 4.
11. Electronic Reporting Requirements
The US EPA NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was finalized on December 21, 2015. Effective
December 21, 2016, NPDES regulated facilities are required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports
(DMRs) electronically. Effective December 21, 2020, NPDES regulated facilities will be required to
submit additional NPDES reports electronically. This permit contains the requirements for electronic
reporting, consistent with Federal requirements.

General Information on the Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA)
The RPA process itself did not change as the result of the new metals standards. However, application of
the dissolved and hardness -dependent standards requires additional consideration in order to establish the
numeric standard for each metal of concern of each individual discharge.
The hardness -based standards require some knowledge of the effluent and instream (upstream) hardness
and so must be calculated case -by -case for each discharge.
Metals limits must be expressed as `total recoverable' metals in accordance with 40 CFR 122.45(c). The
discharge -specific standards must be converted to the equivalent total values for use in the RPA
calculations. We will generally rely on default translator values developed for each metal (more on that
below), but it is also possible to consider case -specific translators developed in accordance with
established methodology.
RPA Permitting Guidance/WOBELs for Hardness -Dependent Metals - Freshwater
The RPA is designed to predict the maximum likely effluent concentrations for each metal of concern,
based on recent effluent data, and calculate the allowable effluent concentrations, based on applicable
standards and the critical low -flow values for the receiving stream.
If the maximum predicted value is greater than the maximum allowed value (chronic or acute), the
discharge has reasonable potential to exceed the standard, which warrants a permit limit in most cases. If
monitoring for a particular pollutant indicates that the pollutant is not present (i.e. consistently below
detection level), then the Division may remove the monitoring requirement in the reissued permit.
1. To perform a RPA on the Freshwater hardness -dependent metals the Permit Writer compiles the
following information:
• Critical low flow of the receiving stream, 7Q 10 (the spreadsheet automatically calculates
the 1 Q 10 using the formula 1 Q 10 = 0.843 (s7Q 10, cfs) 0.113
• Effluent hardness and upstream hardness, site -specific data is preferred
• Permitted flow
• Receiving stream classification
2. In order to establish the numeric standard for each hardness -dependent metal of concern and for
each individual discharge, the Permit Writer must first determine what effluent and instream
(upstream) hardness values to use in the equations.
The permit writer reviews DMR's, Effluent Pollutant Scans, and Toxicity Test results for any
hardness data and contacts the Permittee to see if any additional data is available for instream
hardness values, upstream of the discharge.
If no hardness data is available, the permit writer may choose to do an initial evaluation using a
default hardness of 25 mg/L (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)). Minimum and maximum limits on the
hardness value used for water quality calculations are 25 mg/L and 400 mg/L, respectively.
If the use of a default hardness value results in a hardness -dependent metal showing reasonable
potential, the permit writer contacts the Permittee and requests 5 site -specific effluent and
upstream hardness samples over a period of one week. The RPA is rerun using the new data.
Page 2 of 4
Permit No.N00043532
The overall hardness value used in the water quality calculations is calculated as follows:
Combined Hardness (chronic)
_ (Permitted Flow, cfs *Avg. Effluent Hardness, mg/L) + (s7Q 10. cfs *Avg. Upstream Hardness, mg/L)
(Permitted Flow, cfs + s7Q 10, cfs)
The Combined Hardness for acute is the same but the calculation uses the IQ 10 flow.
3. The permit writer converts the numeric standard for each metal of concern to a total recoverable
metal, using the EPA Default Partition Coefficients (DPCs) or site -specific translators, if any
have been developed using federally approved methodology.
EPA default partition coefficients or the "Fraction Dissolved" converts the value for
dissolved metal at laboratory conditions to total recoverable metal at in -stream
ambient conditions. This factor is calculated using the linear partition coefficients
found in The Metals Translator. Guidance for Calculating a Total Recoverable
Permit Limit from a Dissolved Criterion (EPA 823 B-96-007, June 1996) and the
equation:
C iss - 1
Ctow 1 + { V<W] [ss(l+a)] [10-6] }
Where:
ss = in -stream suspended solids concentration [mg/1], minimum of 10 mg/L used,
and
Kpo and a = constants that express the equilibrium relationship between dissolved
and adsorbed forms of metals. A list of constants used for each hardness -dependent
metal can also be found in the RPA program under a sheet labeled DPCs.
4. The numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the default partition coefficient (or
site -specific translator) to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions.
In some cases, where an EPA default partition coefficient translator does not exist (ie. silver), the
dissolved numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the EPA conversion factor to
obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions. This method presumes that the metal is
dissolved to the same extent as it was during EPA's criteria development for metals. For more
information on conversion factors see the June, 1996 EPA Translator Guidance Document.
5. The RPA spreadsheet uses a mass balance equation to determine the total allowable concentration
(permit limits) for each pollutant using the following equation:
Ca = (s7Q 10 + Qw) (Cwgs) (s7Q 10) (Cb)
Qw
Where: Ca = allowable effluent concentration (µg/L or mg/L)
Cwqs = NC Water Quality Standard or federal criteria (µg/L or mg/L)
Cb = background concentration: assume zero for all toxicants except NH3* (µg/L or mg/L)
Qw = permitted effluent flow (cfs, match s7Q 10)
s7Q 10 = summer low flow used to protect aquatic life from chronic toxicity and human
health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from noncarcinogens (cfs)
* Discussions are on -going with EPA on how best to address background concentrations
Flows other than s7Q 10 may be incorporated as applicable:
IQ 10 = used in the equation to protect aquatic life from acute toxicity
Page 3 of 4
Permit No.N00043532
QA = used in the equation to protect human health through the consumption of water,
fish, and shellfish from carcinogens
30Q2 = used in the equation to protect aesthetic quality
6. The permit writer enters the most recent 2-3 years of effluent data for each pollutant of concern.
Data entered must have been taken within four and one-half years prior to the date of the permit
application (40 CFR 122.21). The RPA spreadsheet estimates the 95th percentile upper
concentration of each pollutant. The Predicted Max concentrations are compared to the Total
allowable concentrations to determine if a permit limit is necessary. If the predicted max exceeds
the acute or chronic Total allowable concentrations, the discharge is considered to show
reasonable potential to violate the water quality standard, and a permit limit (Total allowable
concentration) is included in the permit in accordance with the U.S. EPA Technical Support
Document for Water Quality -Based Toxics Control published in 1991.
7. When appropriate, permit writers develop facility specific compliance schedules in accordance
with the EPA Headquarters Memo dated May 10, 2007 from James Hanlon to Alexis Strauss on
40 CFR 122.47 Compliance Schedule Requirements.
8. The Total Chromium NC WQS was removed and replaced with trivalent chromium and
hexavalent chromium Water Quality Standards. As a cost savings measure, total chromium data
results may be used as a conservative surrogate in cases where there are no analytical results
based on chromium III or VI. In these cases, the projected maximum concentration (95th %) for
total chromium will be compared against water quality standards for chromium III and
chromium VI.
9. Effluent hardness sampling and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the discharge, are
inserted into all permits with facilities monitoring for hardness -dependent metals to ensure the
accuracy of the permit limits and to build a more robust hardness dataset.

Subject: RE: Assistance with NPDES renewal & expansion in Rocky River - Yadkin -Pee Dee River
Hi Ron,
There is no new data for these 2 segments, and both are still considered impaired. There has been new dissolved
copper data collected on the segment immediately below 13-176 (13-17d) on the Rocky that confirms the impairment
for copper for segment 13-17d, this will be reflected on the 2018 303(d) list. With Long Creek as category 5 and not 5e
for copper and zinc, we know that the impairment was confirmed when applying the new statistical methodology (we do
10% exceedance with 90% statistical confidence for 303(d) listing since 2014). When you see category 5e, that shows
the impairment was not confirmed with the new statistical methodology, but EPA did not allow NC to delist until new
dissolved data is collected and status verified.
Hope this helps,
Pam

Subject: Assistance with NPDES renewal & expansion in Rocky River - Yadkin -Pee Dee River
Pam,
We are currently developing a NPDES renewal and modification permit for West Stanly WWTP NC0043532. The facility
discharges to Rocky River AU 13-176 and has an emergency outfall that discharges to Long Creek AU 13-17-31b. Both
stream locations are listed on the 2014 303d list since 2008. Rocky River has an IR Category Se for Copper and Zinc and
Long Creek as a IR Category 5 for copper and zinc. Not sure if data is being collected to change the rating or if the data
collected previously meets our current water quality standard criteria. Need to determine how to apply 303d listing for
applying copper and zinc water quality standards. Any thoughts or additional information you can provide?
Thanks, Ron

EXPANSION West Stanly WWTP (formerly Oakboro WWTP) NC0043532
Received NPDES permit modification application from Town of Oakboro to expand existing facility from 0.9
MGD to 1.2 MGD (0.3 MGD increase) on July 2013. Ownership changed and NPDES permit re -issued to
Stanly County in March 2014. Stanly County has requested the previous expansion application to 1.2 MGD be
included in the current renewal process.
Flow Justification:
Consultant used historical growth in region for primary towns connected to WWTP, 1980 to present, to
determine population growth rate. Portion of service area (western part of county) is considered a potential
suburb of the Charlotte area. Projected annual increase in domestic wastewater by applying the historical
population growth rate and using per capita residential flow factor 70 gpm and commercial factor of 15 gpm.
Projected exceedance of 80% of 0.9 MGD in 2013 with predicted flow to reach 0.97 MGD by 2032. Annual
flow increase about 0.010 MGD per year.
Note: Checked DMR data in 2013 the highest monthly average flow reported was 0.682 MGD, so far in 2014
highest reported monthly average flow is 0.678 MGD.
EAA REVIEW
1) Connect to a regional or other existing WWTP — Stanly is the regional WWTP and should be expanded.
No other system connection warranted.
2) Land Application— Irrigation of 0.3 MGD
- 18 MG storage lagoon
- Purchase 220 acres
- 1,200 land application pump station
- Piping and irrigation system
- Plant current limits more stringent than 2T rules, capable to continue to meet 2T rules at
higher flows
3) Wastewater Reuse — Reuse 0.3 MGD
- New filters at WWTP to meet 2U rules
- 1.5 MG detention pond
- 9 MG storage basin
- 1,200 reclaimed water pump station
- 0.2 MG elevated storage tank
4) Re-rate/upgrade West Stanly WWTP — expand to 1.2 MGD apply limits as listed in 2005 spec letter for
1.2 MGD
- Existing plant basic design was for 1.2 MGD, minor changes
- New surface aerators
- New 0.18 MG Sludge Holding Tank
- New polymer feed system

Ms. Davis,
As a matter of record to comply with federal and state regulations on NPDES application on a five year cycle , the
Division needs confirmation from the Permittee that:
1. You are still requesting renewal of your active NPDES permitted flow of 0.9 MGD
2. You are still requesting a NPDES permit modification to expand to 1.2 MGD
3. There has been no change in the operation of the current facility, sources of wastewater (activation of
pretreatment program or acceptance of non -domestic wastewater) since submittal of the 2013 NPDES permit
renewal and modification application.
A confirmation response to this email is acceptable and will be attached to the 2013 application to show the application
has been updated. At this time no additional information is required. After the NPDES permit is issued with a limitation
page for expansion to 1.2 MGD, for West Stanly to expand will require Authorization to Construct approval through a
separate application process. If you have any questions let me know.

Subject: RE: Question on Impairment
Hi Ron,
What we've been telling everyone is that we have to use the most current approved 303(d) list, which in this case is
2014. EPA disagrees with delisting these specific waters in 2016 and they will likely be put back on the final 2016 303(d)
list. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by AL no longer applies, we don't have any data for these segments to compare
to the new dissolved metals standards, so we have to work under the assumption that they are still impaired.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Question on Impairment
Pam,
I am working on a NPDES permit renewal and expansion for West Stanly WWTP (formerly Oakboro WWTP). The facility's
primary permitted discharge is to Rocky River AU#13-17c3 (Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin). The current permit also has an
emergency discharge to Long Creek AU#13-17-31b (Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin. The Rocky River segment was impaired
for Copper and Zinc in 2008 and Long Creek for Copper in 2008. Both segment are still listed as impaired on the 2014
303d list but in the pending 2016 303d list Rocky River delisted Copper and Zinc impairments (see below) and turbidity
was added.
Rocky River From Anderson Creek to Lanes Creek
13-17c3 C 34.9 FW Miles
New IRC 2014 Category 5 Parameter Justification for removing assessment from the 2016 303(d)
3a Previous listing in Category 5 was inconsistent with the assessment
methodology. Available data insufficient to determine attainment
status
Copper Q µg/I, AL, FW)
3a Previous listing in Category 5 was inconsistent with the assessment
methodology. Available data insufficient to determine attainment
status
Zinc (50 µg/I, AL, FW)
For Long Creek segment the copper impiarmnet remained in the 2016 303d assestment..
Not sure how to inturpret the receiving stream impairment for this NPDES permit. AL no longer applies and both the
copper and zinc current have new WQS criteria.
Your input would be appreciated.
