C. If the Permittee is not a co -permittee member of a TN compliance association and the
Permittee's cumulative annual TN discharge exceeds the effective TN Load limit in this
permit at any point during the calendar year, the Permittee is in violation of its TN Load
limit, and each day of a continuing violation shall constitute a separate violation. .
d. The TN Load limit in this Permit (if any) may be modified as the result of allowable
changes in the Permittee's TN allocation.
i. Allowable changes include those resulting from purchase of TN allocation from the
Wetlands Restoration Fund; purchase, sale, trade, or lease of allocation between
the Permittee and other dischargers; regionalization; and other transactions
approved by the Division.
ii. The Permittee may request a modification of the TN Load limit in this Permit to

public review process afforded such modifications under state and federal rules.
A. (5) TEMPORARY MEANS OF DISINFECTION
[NCGS 143-215.1 (a)]
a. In the event that the wastewater treatment plant's ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system
should fail, under -perform, or otherwise be removed from effective service, the
permittee or his agent should immediately inform the Surface Water Protection Section
staff of the Raleigh Regional Office (919/791-4200) of this development and discuss
temporary, alternate means for disinfection of the effluent.
b. If chlorine compounds are used as temporary means of disinfection, the total residual
chlorine (TRC) concentration of the effluent must be monitored on a daily basis while
this method of disinfection is in use and values must be reported on the discharge
monitoring report. TRC in the effluent may not exceed 22 pg/L; therefore,
dechlorination methods may also be necessary to ensure protection of water quality in
the receiving stream.
c. The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 pg/L to be in
compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and
submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field
certified), even if these values fall below 50 pg/L.
d. Use of a disinfection system other than the permitted UV system during
circumstances not deemed as emergency and/or temporary (replacement of lamps,
lamp cleaning or maintenance, etc.) will be considered a violation of the terms of this
permit.
A. (6) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[NCGS 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. 12.1 and Section E._(5.)fa]
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.
Page 6 of 9
Permit NCO049662
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.
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:

pollutant-discharge-elimination-system-npdes-electronic-reporting rule
Page 7 of 9
Permit NCO049662
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting Requirements"
section above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Re ortin
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.
Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver are
found on the following web page:
http:l Ideg.nc. gov/about/divisions/ water -resources / edmr
4. ftMatory Requirements ISupplements, Section B. 11.1 (b and Supersedes Section B.
11. d
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person
described in Part II, Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that
person as described in Part II, Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be
delegated signatory authority for eDMR reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an
eDMR user account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more

Hey Sarah,
Cheng and I reviewed the this draft permit and we have a few minor comments. I am happy to discuss with you if you
have questions.
Hope you have a nice holiday!
Danny
1. Page after the limits page (page 6). Draft permit lists "B. (3.) Annual limits for Total Nitrogen"
This should read "A. (3.) Annual limits for Total Nitrogen"
2. Minor formatting issue in A. (4.): different indent spacing for items A. (4.) a. and b. are inconsistent.
3. 1) In the limits page there is a "TN load" that lists only monitoring and reporting. 2) there is also a TN with
monthly average limit, 3) there is a TN limit located in the "Daily Maximum" column that includes " annual
average)" term in the daily max cell.
Load = is calculated by TN*Total Monthly Flow* 8.34 Ib.s ( per Part I. A.(2.) Calculation of total nitrogen loads)
Annual Averake =The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar
year. (per Part II. Section A. Definitions.)
• Is TN a daily max limit or is it an annual average limit? - Could this be defined with use of
a "superscript"?
• A.(3.) lists "Total Nitrogen allocation" and "TN load Limits" for NPDES discharges in the Neuse basin
apply on a calendar year basis. My question is since the limit pages does not list a TN load limit (it only
requires monitoring) does A(3) apply to this facility? Is that our intention?
• A.4. -IotatNitrogen Allocation -lists discharge 5055 Ibs./yrfor Hawthorn- his -facility is nota co -
permittee member. It is not clear that we can assess for violations of a "allocation exceedance"
because it is not identified on the "limit and monitoring re u ements". This conditions only states the
__allocation assigned to the permittee.
-1s it our intention to give this facility TN Allocation of 5055 lbs: and not be able to enforce a TN Load
T! mit?
Total Phosphorus -2) there is TP with monthly average limit, 3) there is a TP located in the "Daily
maximum" column that includes "(annual average)" term in the daily max cell. Is this a daily max limit
or is it an annual average limit?
4. My understanding is that this facility received an ATC to install BNR/retrofit the facility with BNR. Would this
new construction require an updated facility components lists (see supplement to permit cover sheet page 4.)
