** All volumes of wastewater leaving the facility shall be monitored. If continuous flow monitoring is not feasible, then the discharger shall
record the approximate time that discharge began and ended, along with the instantaneous flow at the time of effluent sampling.
*** The discharge shall not cause the turbidity of the receiving water to exceed 50 NTU. If the turbidity exceeds these levels due to natural
background conditions, the discharge level cannot cause any increase in the turbidity in the receiving water.

A. (1). EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS FINAL Permit No. NC0071463
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the Permittee is authorized to discharge from outfall -
serial number 001. Such discharges shall be limited and monitored by the permittee as specified below:
* ** * Acute Toxicity (Fathead 24 hour) Monitoring, Episodic, See Part III, Condition E.
* * * * * Monitoring shall be conducted during the first five discrete discharge events after resumption of operations, and then on an
annual basis thereafter, with the annual period beginning January of the next calendar year.
The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units nor greater, than 9.0 standard units and shall be monitored 2/month at the effluent
by grab sample.
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.

E. ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (MONTHLY)
The permittee shall conduct five (5) acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in
E.P.A. Document 600/4-85/013 entitled "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a single grab sample. Effluent samples
for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge below all
waste treatment. Sampling and subsequent testing will occur during the first five (5) discrete
discharge events after the effective date of the permit. After monitoring of the first five toxicity
tests, the permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January of
the next calendar year. The annual test requirement must be performed and reported by June 30.
If no discharge occurs by June 30, notification will be made to the Division by this date. Toxicity
testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test requirement
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1(original) is
to be sent to the following address:
Attention:

Raleigh, N.C. 27607
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test.
Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.
F. Toxicity Reopener Condition
This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to incorporate toxicity limitations and
monitoring requirements in the event toxicity testing or other studies conducted on the effluent or
receiving stream indicate that detrimental effects may be expected in the receiving stream as a result
of this discharge.
G. Detection Levels
Monitoring of petrochemical constituents and metals should be done using an EPA approved
method to a detection level of 1 µg/l.
H. Before Initiating Operations
Before the facility may be placed back into operation, the permittee must obtain the authorization to

P '
s. construct a. treatment system and place it into operation. A Spill Control and Control and

(West Market St.) Facility on right approx. 1/2 mile.
6. Discharge Points(s), List for all discharge points:
Latitude: 360 04' 46" Longitude: 791 55' 36"
U.S.G.S. Quad No. C19SW U.S.G.S. Quad Name Guilford
7. Site size and expansion area consistent with application ?
Yes No If No, explain: Unknown. There
appears to be room for a designed system near Hwy 421.
8. Topography (relationship to flood plain included):
Not in Floodplain.

9. Location of nearest dwelling: Adjacent properties within
200'.
10. Receiving stream or affected surface waters: UT Horsepen
Creek
a. Classification WS-III, NSW
b. River Basin and Subbasin No.: CPF 030602
C. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent
downstream uses: Storm sewer adjacent to road. UT
then runs through industrial and commercial urban area.
Other depots are located to the south.
Part II - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
1. a. Volume of Wastewater to be permitted: Unknown MGD
Rainfall dependent. (Ultimate Design Capacity) Unknown.
b. What is the current permitted capacity of the Waste
Water Treatment facility? NOL MGD
C. Actual treatment capacity of the current facility
(current design capacity)? Unknown MGD
The old oil/water separator was removed by DOT when Hwy
421 was widened. The company hasn't provided plans for
the replacement oil/water separator for the facility.
d. Date(s) and construction activities allowed by previous
Authorizations to Construct issued in the previous two
years. None known.
e. Please provide a description of existing or
substantially constructed wastewater treatment
facilities: Stormwater and any spillage associated
with the bulk tank area gravity flows to an existing
impoundment (low area) within the tank berm. This
water is then pumped to an oil/water separator (non
existent at this time). Additional stormwater and
spillage from the loading facility would enter into a
surface collection system and flow to this same non
existent oil/water separator. Discharge is to storm
sewer.
f. Please provide a description of proposed wastewater
treatment facilities. Unknown. No plans have been
submitted with the application for replacement or
addition of treatment facilities.
g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: Petroleum
products, byproducts and petroleum sludges.

h. Pretreatment Program (POTWs only): NA
in development approved
should be required not needed
2. Residuals handling and utilization/disposal scheme: To be
removed by Four Seasons, a contract disposal firm and
disposed of at Laidlaw Hazardous in Pinewood, SC or Waste
Management Non -Hazardous in Palmetto, SC. according to
applicable regulations.
a. If residuals are being land applied, please specify DEM
Permit No. None .
Residuals Contractor: Four Seasons
Telephone No. [phone]
b. Residuals stabilization: PSRP PFRP
Other X
C. Landfill: See above.
d. Other disposal/utilization scheme (Specify): Unknown.
3. Treatment plant classification (attach completed rating
sheet). Probably class I (No rating supplied with this
report as plans -have not been submitted.)
4. SIC Code (s) : 5171
Primary 39 Secondary
Main Treatment Unit Code: 530 02
PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION
1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grant
Funds or are any public monies involved. (municipals only)?
2. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity)
requests: Sampling events should be required to coincide
with discharge events and correlated with normal stormwater
sampling permit requirements.

3. Important SOC, JOC or Compliance Schedule dates: (Please
indicate)
Date
Submission of Plans and Specifications
Begin Construction
Complete Construction
4. Alternative Analysis Evaluation: Has the facility evaluated
all of the non -discharge options available. Please provide
regional perspective for each option evaluated.
Spray Irrigation: Not enough room.
'Connection to Regional Sewer System: Sewer is available
and this should be investigated although it would require
separation of stormwater from petroleum contact water.
Subsurface: Not enough room. Groundwater contamination
is prevalent in the area.
Other disposal options: Unknown.
5. Other Special Items: This company should consider
providing a completely new site approach concerning the
oil/water separation discharge and an enhanced design and
implementation of a Spill Prevention and Containment Plan
(especially the truck filling station area). It appears
that additional consideration and some consolidation of
these issues (and subsequent modifications to the site such
as roof extensions, relocation of spill collection basins
and asphalt driveway berms) could further reduce potential
stormwater contact with petroleum products.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WSRO recommends that since this facility is currently not
operational that issuance of the Permit be delayed until the
company submits proposed and actual site engineering plans
for modifications to the site with regards to the SPCP, RCRA
and specifications for the existing treatment works onsite
(sized to fit existing and proposed conditions) as well as
any potential remediation requirements, if necessary. As
this discharge is to a water supply, the DHS may also need
to comment on this facility. Phenol, TSS and oil/grease
limits may be reasonable.
NPDES Permit Staff Report
Version 10/92
Page 4

The Groundwater Section should also comment on this permit
request. It would be advisable to find out about the
current conditions of the tanks on site and what steps have
or will be taken to provide proper seals and leak detection
for the tanks. Previous site leaks (if any) should be
investigated, eliminated as a concern or reviewed for
remedial activities.
The company name change should be included in the permit.
