A (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIlVIIT (QUARTERLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia
dubia at an effluent concentration of 2.7 %.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterl monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina
Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina
Phase 11 Chronic Whole Effluent Tonicity Test Procedure' (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be
performed during the months of March, .tune, September, and December. 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 minimum, 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 I1 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 TGP313 for the pass/fail results and THP313
for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of Water Resources
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch 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 chemicaVphysical 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 Branch 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.
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.

Permit NCO021628
A. (3.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify
that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs
electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these regulations
will be adopted and is beginning implementation in late 2013.
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
L Reporting [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)]
Beginning no later than 90 days from the effective date of this permit, the permittee shall begin reporting
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. 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 / DWR / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files/eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a permittec 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.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements 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 using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months
and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the
permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following web page: httl2.//portal.nedenr.org/web/wq/admin/bog/ipu/edDir
Page 5 of 7
Permit NCO021628
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.
2. SignatorV Requirements [Supplements Section B. 11. 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. (I 1.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II, Section B. (I 1)(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 information on North Carolina's cDMR system.,
registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit the following web page:

Certification. Any person submitting an electronic DMR using the state's eDMR system shall make the
following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER STATEMENTS OF CERTIFICATION WILL BE
ACCEPTED:
"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared under my direction or
supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualifiedpersonnelproperly gather and
evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or
those persons directly responsible for gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of
my knowledge and belief, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for
submitting false information, including the possibility of fines and imprisonment for knowing violations. "
3. Records Retention [Supiplements Section D. 6.
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including eDMR submissions. These
records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at least 3 years from the date of the report. This period
may be extended by request of the Director at any time [40 CFR 122.41 ].
A. (4.) EFFLUENT MERCURY ANALYSIS
Based on the completion and approval of the N.C. Statewide mercury Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL), the
permit now requires one mercury analysis, using EPA Method 1631E, which must be completed within the
twelve (12) months prior to the next permit renewal.

Influent Design Criteria
The influent parameters in the Basis of Design were based on the median value of the 30-day rolling
average of several years of Plant DMR data.
The selected influent design parameters serve as a conservative approach to ensure all selected
equipment will provide sufficient treatment. Below is the table summarizing the design parameters.

Hydraulic Profile
The hydraulics of the renovated Norwood WWTP were evaluated for two different flow scenarios.
Scenario 1 modeled the facilities during average daily flow (ADF) conditions, assuming a flow rate
of 0.75 MGD, a recycle rate of 1.0 x ADF, and all unit processes in service. Additionally, Scenario 1
assumed all new piping with a C value of C=140.
Scenario 2 evaluated the hydraulics of the facility during a peak flow of 3.5 x 0.75 MGD, which is
2.63 MGD. For Scenario 2, it was assumed that only one of each unit process was in service, and
that the piping was old with a C value of 100.

RAS System Head Development
The Return Activated Sludge (RAS) pumps were analyzed for two different flow scenarios. The first
scenario was to assess a single pump's performance at the current average daily flow of approximately
0.40 million gallons per day (MGD), which is equivalent to approximately 280 gallons per minute
(GPM). In this scenario, the piping was assumed to be new with a C value of 140. A system head curve
was developed for the most restrictive one -pump conditions, with only one aeration basin in service.
The second pump scenario assessed was for the design flow condition of 0.75 MGD. This scenario
assumed three pumps will be in operation to provide a recycle ratio of 1.0 the average daily flow, which
equates to approximately 520 GPM. These modeling efforts assumed that three of the four RAS pumps
would be in service, and the piping was old, with the C value of 100. Also, for this scenario the most
restrictive conditions were assumed, with only one aeration basin in service.

Town of Norwood WAS System Head Development
Norwood WWTP Renovation
The Waste Activated Sludge (WAS) pumps were analyzed for two different flow scenarios. The WAS
pumps will serve as the sludge wasting pumps during normal operating conditions, but will also have
the ability to act as a drain pump for either of the secondary clarifiers. This will be accomplished
through the use of a variable frequency drive and an isolation valve within the sludge pump station.
The first scenario assessed, referred to as Scenario 1, was the WAS pumps serving as the WWTP waste
pumps. In this scenario, a single WAS pump system head curve was developed to model the
conveyance of sludge from the sludge pump station to the sludge drying bed. Piping was assumed to
be new with a C value of 140. For the system head curve, this pump was represented by a pump
operating at 1155 RPM.
Scenario 2 was to assess the most restrictive operating conditions of a waste pump. When the WAS
pumps are draining a clarifier, the water level drawdown will lead to higher head conditions, requiring
the VFDs to increase the operating rate. This scenario was modeled assuming wastewater will be
pumped from the sludge pump station and discharging in the Parshall flume. The most restrictive
conditions were assumed, with old piping having a C value of 100. For the system head curve, this
pump was represented by a pump operating at 1585 RPM.

drain wet well was assumed to be full, and one RAS pump was assumed to be on, providing an
additional flow of 290 gallons per minute through the shared force main.
In Scenario 2, a single drain pump system head curve was developed to simulate the most restrictive
operative conditions these pumps will undergo. For this scenario, the wet well was assumed to be
empty, the piping was assumed to be old with a C value of 100, and three RAS pumps were assumed
to be on, providing an additional flow of 520 GPM through the common force main.
