Martin, Governor George T. Everett, Ph.D. William W. Cobey, Jr., Secretary Director November 29, 1990 Jerry Pace Pace Mobile Home Park 2720 Buffalo Road Clayton, NC 27520 Subject: Chlorine Toxicity NDPES Permit No. NCO064246 Johnston County Dear Mr. Pace: Chlorine, a widely used wastewater disinfectant for the treatment of coliform organisms, often remains instream in residual amounts that may prove to be toxic under critical low stream flow conditions. In the last decade, EPA assessed the potential adverse effects of chlorine to the aquatic environment and has taken steps to reduce the impacts through the development of federal criteria. In 1986, EPA recommended that all states have a chlorine standard by their nexquiennial review of water quality standards. r In revising its water quality standards in 1989, North Carolina developed an action level for chlorine of 17 ug/1(freshwater classes only). In addition, the fecal coliform limit was reduced from 1000 colonies/100 ml to 200 colonies/100 ml. Under a new DEM procedure, dechlorination and chlorine limits are now recommended for all new or expanding dischargers proposing the use of chlorine for effluent disinfection. The Division is reviewing chlorine levels from all existing dischargers as part of their NPDES permit renewal process. Our records indicate that chlorine from your facility's effluent discharge may be toxic to aquatic life in the receiving stream under low flow conditions, i.e., the amount of chlorine discharged causes an exceedance of the instream action level for chlorine (17 ug/1) under 7Q10 conditions (the lowest average daily flow for seven (7) consecutive days during a ten (10) year period). Action should be taken to reduce the effluent concentration of chlorine to an acceptable level. Based on your instream waste concentration of 100 %, an acceptable level of chlorine in your effluent is 17 ug/l or 0.017 mg/l. If this level is not feasible, you should consider dechlorination or alternate methods of disinfection for your facility to ensure that both chlorine and bacterial limits are met. In addition, if your facility plans to undertake any phase of construction, dechlorination or alternate disinfection should be included. However, please note that an authorization to construct must be obtained from this Division prior to any alteration to your treatment plant Pollution Prevention Pays P.O.

In the future, effluent limits and/or dechlorination may be required of existing facilities with chlorine problems. If the chlorine levels in your facility's effluent remain unchanged, a chlorine limit or whole effluent toxicity requirement may be added to your permit limitations. Please feel free to call Tim Donnelly of the Division's Regional Office at (919) 733-2314, if you have any questions or comments regarding this issue. - Sincerely, Steve Tedder Water Quality Section Chief SWT/eaj . cc: Raleigh Regional Office Central Files 0 r Pollution Prevention Pays P.O.
