Easley Governor �Fn William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Kerr T. Stevens, Director Division of Water Quality 27357 June 29, 2001 Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO073571 Countryside Manor WWTP Guilford 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 May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). This facility is discharging excessively high amounts of total residual chlorine (TRC). The average TRC concentration in the effluent should be below 28 µg/L. This facility consistently discharged well in excess of this level in 1999 and 2000. Unless these concentrations are reduced, the Division will reopen this permit to include a chlorine limit. Please be aware that Troublesome Creek is listed as an impaired stream on North Carolina's 303(d) list. This means that the stream does not meet all water quality standards. The Division is working toward the ✓ improvement of water quality in Troublesome Creek. If the Division's current initiatives do not result in f improved water quality, removal of discharges to Troublesome Creek may be necessary for the health of the stream. Although the Division believes urban runoff is the main cause of degradation to Troublesome Creek, we will continue to monitor compliance at your facility. If noncompliance with your permit's effluent Limits is shown to be a direct cause of stream degradation, the Division will recommend removal of your facility's discharge. Your faciliry discharges to a nutrient -sensitive water (NSW). In 1997 the Clean Water Responsibility Act (House Bill 515) was enacted, with the intent to strengthen the control of nutrients from all discharges to NSW waters. Facilities permitted to discharge greater than 500,000 gallons per day (and any new or expanding facilities) will be subject to nutrient limitations for total nitrogen and total phosphorus according to House Bill 515 requirements. Since modifications to treatment systems are expensive and time consuming, it is highly recommended that you begin planning for this possibility now if a future expansion is anticipated at your facility.
