Subject: Renewal of NPDES Permit NCO023337
Scotland County WWTP
Halifax County
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit.
Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge 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).
This permit renewal has the following differences from your current permit:
➢ The Supplement to Cover Sheet has been revised to list the current equipment at your facility.
➢ The TRC footnote has been changed on A.(1) in accordance with our Permitting Strategy. Because
there are interferences sometimes in measuring low levels of TRC in wastewater, The Division
considersany analysis reported by a certified laboratory of less than 50 ug/ L to be in compliance with
the permit limit.
➢ Current Tar -Pamlico Nutrient language has been added to the permit.
➢ The Toxicity testing language has been updated to be in agreement with our standard testing language.

Permit NCO023337
A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant morality to
Ceriodaphnia dubta at an effluent concentration of 90%.
The pert holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina
Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina
Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will
be performed during the months of February, May, August, and November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be
performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then
multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minunum, in each of the two following months as described in "North
Carolina Phase 11 Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions.
The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration
having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable
impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes,
and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase 11 Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test
Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring
Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and
TIIP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Section
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental 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 Environmental Sciences Section at the
address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required
during the following month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include
alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be
included in the calculation and data submitted on the DMR, and shall be included on the submitted AT forms.
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.

Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative
of the wastewater discharged during the sample period.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, 33 USC 1251, et.
seq-
Annual Avera¢e
The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal
cotiform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
Bypass
The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system,
which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
Calendar Day
The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any
consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
Calendar Week
The period from Sunday through the following Saturday.
Calendar Ouarter
One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and
October through December.
Composite Sams
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 nil 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
interval 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, continuous 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 rate of flow measured at the time of individual
sample collection, or
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume 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 time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period
at a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may

➢ Permfttees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect
effluent grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-
hour sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance
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 the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is
calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration
comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the
arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2)
Daily Maximum
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sam phne
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in
the permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal
operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit
parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).

Description of Collection System or Treatment Process:
The Scotland Neck Wastewater Treatment Plant is a 0.675 MGD design capacity
facility. The unit processes in the treatment system include an influent barscreen, a
grit removal chamber, influent pump station, one activated sludge oxidation ditch
with aeration and mixing provided "brush type" mechanical aerators. The ditch
provides a volumetric capacity of approximately 400,000 gallons and one sludge
digester with a capacity of approximately 200,000 gallons.
Flow from the oxidation ditch is split between two secondary clarifiers one
peripheral feed clarifier and one center feed clarifier. Sludge settles in the bottom
of the clarifiers and is returned to the oxidation ditch or the sludge digester for
treatment and hauled off and land applied. The clarified effluent goes to the effluent
filter pump station where it is pumped to tertiary filters followed by chlorination and
dechlorination and discharge into Canal creek.
II. Compliance Performance
The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR) regulates the Town of Scotland Neck effluent discharge under the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The NCDENR
issued to the Town a NPDES Permit, which includes water quality limits and
sampling and monitoring requirements. The NPDES Permit requires the Town to
test more than 14 different constituents in the treated water. The monitoring
frequency for these constituents are set at various intervals such as continuous,
daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly. During the reporting period, the Town
conducted 2,578 tests of the treated water before it was discharged to the creek.
The WWTP achieved a compliance level of 99.67% with the NPDES Permit

requirements. Following is a summary of the testing for the parameters, which
are, assigned Water Quality standards by the NPDES Permit. Please note the
summary does not include parameters, which incorporates a monitoring
requirement only, nor does it include daily process control testing.

r L L 2 7 ?2??
I am writing in response to your February 12, 2013 Notice of Violation and
Recommendation for Enforcement pertaining to one weekly BOD violation and a monthly
Ammonia Nitrogen violation during September, 2012 at the Town of Scotland Neck
Wastewater Treatment Facility. I am providing additional information for your review and
consideration.
The Scotland Neck W WTP received 11.00 inches of rainfall during the month of August,
2012 which contributed to Inflow and Infiltration and subsequently elevated flows at the
wastewater treatment facility which exceeded the daily hydraulic design capacity. (This
was the highest monthly rainfall total recorded for Scotland Neck since 1980, see month of
August 2012 rain fall in attachment 1.)
An additional 2.3 inches of rainfall was experienced in the first two weeks of September,
resulting in the weekly BOD violation of the 7.5 mg/I permit limit with a weekly average of
8.6 mg/I. The excessive rainfall and elevated facility flows contributed to a loss of
nitrification on September 4, 2012. Nitrification was regained on September 12, 2012;
however, these elevated concentrations contributed to a monthly violation of the Ammonia
Nitrogen permit limit of 2.0 mg/1 with a monthly average of 2.13 mg/l.
Operators realized the hydraulic overload was a potential operational problem and
coordinated with a hauler to stand by ready to haul sludge for reseeding the activated sludge
process.
P a g e I'Phone: [phone] • Fax: [phone] • email: [e-mail]

Scotland Neck WWTP provided sludge reseeding on the flowing dates:
• September 4, 2012 received 5,000 gallons of seed sludge from Enfield W WTP
• September 5, 2012 received 2,500 gallons of seed sludge from Enfield W WTP
• September 10, 2012 received 2,500 gallons of seed sludge from Enfield W WTP
The sludge reseeding activities above allowed the treatment process to quickly regain
nitrification and minimize the period of noncompliance.
In addition to efforts on reducing Inflow and Infiltration in the collection system, the Town
of Scotland Neck is currently working on securing grant funds to add another secondary
clarifier to the treatment scheme to improve solids settling, particularly at flows
approaching the design capacity of the facility. As you may know, the current treatment
system includes two secondary clarifiers; however, one is significantly smaller and does not
respond well to significant increases in flow.
The town respectfully request that a penalty not be issued for this event. The town is
committed to continued improvement of the facility and protection of the receiving stream.
I hope this information is helpful in describing the events during this period. If you have
any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at
252-826-3152 or [e-mail]
The town appreciates your guidance and support in this area.

Within thirty days receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (do not include
waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose enforcement action for any continuing or new
violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of:

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such request.
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred
or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment
document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a
request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a
stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed
statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the
Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request
will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b) were wrongfully
applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation;
(3) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;
(5) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions.

Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) Testing
Copper and Zinc Action Level Policy
NPDES Permit No. NCO023337
Scotland Neck WWTP
Halifax County
Dear Ms. Jackson:
v
This is to inform you that a review of your toxicity self -monitoring report form for the month of February 2012
indicates a violation of the toxicity limitation specified in your NPDES Permit. You should undertake necessary actions to
eliminate or reduce effluent toxicity to acceptable levels.
In addition, this correspondence contains important information on the Division's Copper and Zinc Action Level
Policy which is triggered by two or more toxicity limit violations that occur during the toxicity testing calendar quarter
specified by the toxicity testing special condition of your NPDES Permit. Attachments addressing policy implementation
and a copy of the Division's Toxicity Reduction Guidance have been included with this Notice of Violation.
You should initiate follow-up toxicity testing upon a single WET test failure which occurs during the toxicity
testing calendar quarter.
Your facility is currently monitoring for copper and/or zinc and the data indicate that the levels of copper/zinc in
your effluent have the potential to cause an exceedance of the NC water quality action level for this (these) parameter(s) in
your receiving stream during low stream flow conditions. The policy states that whenever a facility experiences two or
more toxicity limit violations during a toxicity testing calendar quarter, the NPDES Permit will be modified to include
numeric limits for copper and/or zinc UNLESS the perraittee provides one or more of the following:

1. Instream measurements of dissolved metal during low flow conditions that demonstrate compliance with
the Action Level standard
2. A revision of the prospective permit limit using improved inputs that in concert with existing or
additional monitoring data demonstrates compliance with the Action Level standard
3. Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) results that definitively rule out copper and/or zinc as causes of
effluent toxicity
4. Demonstration by an alternative method approved by the Division and EPA that copper and/or zinc is not
the cause of toxicity
The Division has evaluated your copper and/or zinc monitoring data. The Division has also developed a
prospective NPDES permit limit based on your facility's instream waste concentration, the copper and/or zinc action level
criterion and a translator procedure. Based on this data your prospective copper permit limit is 151.1 µg/L and your
prospective zinc permit limit is 125.0 jig/L.
The permittee, upon experiencing two or more toxicity limit violations during a toxicity testing calendar
quarter must either provide DWQ with:
a) Written notification indicating acceptance of the prospective copper and/or zinc permit
limit. Notification is due within 30 days after the date of the second WET Notice of
Violation.
OR
b) Written notification indicating your choice of option(s) as noted on page one of this
correspondence. Notification is due within 30 days after the date of the second WET Notice of
Violation. DWQ approval of options 1-3 (previous page) is not necessary as the Division expects
work to rule out copper and/or zinc as causative effluent toxicants to begin immediately upon the
second WET permit limit violation.
Written notification (a or It above) shall be sent to:
NC Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Section
Aquatic Toxicology Unit
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1621
Please note that if you choose item b) above, you will be given nine months to submit documentation that
eliminates copper and/or zinc as causative effluent toxicants. Your final report should be comprehensive and include all
data used to support your cwnclusion(s). Should the data indicate copper and/or zinc as the source of effluent toxicity or if

the data are inconclusive as to copper and/or zinc's role as a toxicity source, then the NPDES Permit will be reopened and
the metal limits specified above will be applied to the permit. The report is due nine months after the date of the second
WET Notice of Violation.
Three copies of the final report shall be submitted to:
North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Section
Aquatic Toxicology Unit
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
You should consider submitting the above correspondence certified mail.
Failure to notify DWQ of your acceptance of a copper and/or zinc limit, failure to notify DWQ of your option
selection or failure to make acceptable demonstration to DWQ that copper and/or zinc are not causative effluent toxicants
within the stated time frames will result in reopening of the NPDES Permit to include copper and/or zinc numeric
limitations, as appropriate.
If the effluent is toxic, then we expect work to commence immediately with toxic effluent samples. Failure to
initiate work with toxic effluent samples during the study period is unacceptable and will be considered a failure to make
acceptable demonstration as cited above. We recommend a minimum of three separate sampling events during the nine
month period to definitively rule out copper and/or zinc as causative effluent toxicants.
Please note that your actions to notify DWQ of prospective limit acceptance or to notify DWQ of plan option(s)
and subsequent submission of a plan are contingent upon two or more toxicity NPDES permit limit violations occurring
during a toxicity testing calendar quarter.
Also note that the WET limit will remain in your NPDES permit regardless of whether metals are the source of
effluent toxicity. The data resulting from your actions to disprove copper and/or zinc as sources of effluent toxicity will
determine whether NPDES Permit limits will be assigned for these parameters. You are responsible for initiating actions
to address these issues.
You may consider entering into a Special Order by Consent (SOC) with DWQ. A SOC provides regulatory relief
for specific NPDES permit limit violations and, if signed, will contain a requirement to conduct a Toxicity Reduction
Evaluation. The SOC will contain a compliance schedule, stipulated penalties for failing to meet milestone activity dates
and may contain upfront penalties to settle past permit limit violations.

2011 Annual Performance Report
for the
Town of Scotland Neck
Wastewater Treatment Facility
General Information
Facility/System Name: Town of Scotland Neck Wastewater Treatment Plant
Responsible Entity: Town of Scotland Neck
Person in Charge/Contact: Nancy Jackson
Town Administrator
1310 Main Street
Scotland Neck, NC 27874

Description of Collection System or Treatment Process:
The Scotland Neck Wastewater Treatment Plant is a 0.675 MGD design capacity
facility. The unit processes in the treatment system include an influent barscreen, a
grit removal chamber, influent pump station, one activated sludge oxidation ditch
with aeration and mixing provided "brush type" mechanical aerators. The ditch
provides a volumetric capacity of approximately 400,000 gallons and one sludge
digester with a capacity of approximately 200,000 gallons.
Flow from the oxidation ditch is split between two secondary clarifiers one
peripheral feed clarifier and one center feed clarifier. Sludge settles in the bottom
of the clarifiers and is returned to the oxidation ditch or the sludge digester for
treatment and hauled off and land applied. The clarified effluent goes to the effluent
filter pump station where it is pumped to tertiary filters followed by chlorination and
dechlorination and discharge into Canal creek.
II. Compliance Performance
The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR) regulates the Town of Scotland Neck effluent discharge under the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The NCDENR
issued to the Town a NPDES Permit, which includes water quality limits and
sampling and monitoring requirements. The NPDES Permit requires the Town to
test more than 14 different constituents in the treated water. The monitoring
frequency for these constituents are set at various intervals such as continuous,
daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly. During the reporting period, the Town
conducted 2,541 tests of the treated water before it was discharged to the creek.
The WWTP achieved a compliance level of 99.67% with the NPDES Permit
