Instream monitoring may be required in certain situations, for example: 1) to verify model predictions
when model results for instream DO are within 1 mg/l of instream standard at full permitted flow; 2) to
verify model predictions for outfall diffuser; 3) to provide data for future TMDL; 4) based on other
instream concerns. Instream monitoring may be conducted by the Permittee, and there are also
Monitoring Coalitions established in several basins that conduct instream sampling for the Permittee (in
which case instream monitoring is waived in the permit as long as coalition membership is maintained).
If applicable, summarize any instream data and what instream monitoring will be proposed for this
permit action: Quarterly upstream Hardness monitoring has been added for Outfall 002 to provide a
baseline for establishing limitation of hardness depend metals such as Zinc.
Is this facility a member of a Monitoring Coalition with waived instream monitoring (YIN): NO.
Name of Monitoring Coalition: NA.
5. Compliance Summary
Summarize the compliance record with permit effluent limits (past 5 years): See Attachment H:

(past 5 years): NA.
Summarize the results from the most recent compliance inspection: See Attachment L NC0088501
Inspection Report, 11/06/2018, 5 pages.
6. Water Quality -Based Effluent Limitations (WQBELs)
Dilution and Mixing Zones
In accordance with 15A NCAC 213.0206, the following streamflows are used for dilution considerations
for development of WQBELs: 1Q10 streamflow (acute Aquatic Life); 7Q10 streamflow (chronic Aquatic
Life; non -carcinogen HIT); 30Q2 streamflow (aesthetics); annual average flow (carcinogen, HH).
If applicable, describe any other dilution factors considered (e.g., based on CORMIX model results): NA.
If applicable, describe any mixing zones established in accordance with I5A NCAC 2B. 0204(b): NA.
Oxygen -Consuming Waste Limitations
Limitations for oxygen -consuming waste (e.g., BOD) are generally based on water quality modeling to
ensure protection of the instream dissolved oxygen (DO) water quality standard. Secondary TBEL limits
(e.g., BOD= 30 mg/1 for Municipals) may be appropriate if deemed more stringent based on dilution and
model results.
Ifpermit limits are more stringent than TBELs, describe how limits were developed: NA.
Ammonia and Total Residual Chlorine Limitations
Limitations for ammonia are based on protection of aquatic life utilizing an ammonia chronic criterion of
1.0 mg/1(summer) and 1.8 mg/1(winter). Acute ammonia limits are derived from chronic criteria,
utilizing a multiplication factor of 3 for Municipals and a multiplication factor of 5 for Non -Municipals.
Limitations for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) are based on the NC water quality standard for protection
of aquatic life (17 µg/1) and capped at 28 µg/1(acute impacts). Due to analytical issues, all TRC values
reported below 50 ug/1 are considered compliant with their permit limit.
Describe any proposed changes to ammonia and/or TRC limits for this permit renewal: Under zero flow
conditions the daily maximum limit for TRC should be 17 µg/l.
Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) for Toxicants
If applicable, conduct RPA analysis and complete information below.
The need for toxicant limits is based upon a demonstration of reasonable potential to exceed water quality
standards, a statistical evaluation that is conducted during every permit renewal utilizing the most recent
effluent data for each outfall. The RPA is conducted in accordance with 40 CFR 122.44 (d) (i). The NC
RPA procedure utilizes the following: 1) 95% Confidence Level/95% Probability; 2) assumption of zero
background; 3) use of/2 detection limit for "less than" values; and 4) streamflows used for dilution
consideration based on 15A NCAC 213.0206. Effective April 6, 2016, NC began implementation of
dissolved metals criteria in the RPA process in accordance with guidance titled NPDES Implementation of
Instream Dissolved Metals Standards, dated June 10, 2016.
Page 4 of 9

DocuSign Envelope ID: ED51CD7D-CCAB-4E9B-B4B3-D6BD811B3979
A reasonable potential analysis was conducted on effluent toxicant data collected between May2014 to
Oct2018. Pollutants of concern included toxicants with positive detections and associated water quality
standards/criteria. Based on this analysis, the following permitting actions are proposed for this permit:
• Effluent Limit with Monitoring: The following parameters will receive a water quality -based
effluent limit (WQBEL) since they demonstrated a reasonable potential to exceed applicable
water quality standards/criteria: Total Zinc.
• No Limit or Monitoring: Arsenic, Chromium and Copper were removed from the previous
version (July 14, 2014) of this permit.
• Summary of new limits added based on RPA:

134.9 µg/L
If applicable, attach a spreadsheet of the RPA results [See Attachment J] as well as a copy of the
Dissolved Metals Implementation Fact Sheet for freshwater/saltwater [See Attachment K] to this Fact
Sheet. Include a printout of the RPA Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator sheet if this is a Municipality
with a Pretreatment Program.
Toxici . Testing Limitations
Permit limits and monitoring requirements for Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) have been established in
accordance with Division guidance (per WET Memo, 8/2/1999). Per WET guidance, all NPDES permits
issued to Major facilities or any facility discharging "complex" wastewater (contains anything other than
domestic waste) will contain appropriate WET limits and monitoring requirements, with several
exceptions. The State has received prior EPA approval to use an Alternative WET Test Procedure in
NPDES permits, using single concentration screening tests, with multiple dilution follow-up upon a test
failure.
Describe proposed toxicity test requirement: NA.
Mercury Statewide TMDL Evaluation
There is a statewide TMDL for mercury approved by EPA in 2012. The TMDL target was to comply with
EPA's mercury fish tissue criteria (0.3 mg/kg) for human health protection. The TMDL established a
wasteload allocation for point sources of 37 kg/year (81 lb/year), and is applicable to municipals and
industrial facilities with known mercury discharges. Given the small contribution of mercury from point
sources (-2% of total load), the TMDL emphasizes mercury minimization plans (MMPs) for point source
control. Municipal facilities > 2 MGD and discharging quantifiable levels of mercury (>1 ng/1) will
receive an MMP requirement. Industrials are evaluated on a case -by -case basis, depending if mercury is a
pollutant of concern. Effluent limits may also be added if annual average effluent concentrations exceed
the WQBEL value (based on the NC WQS of 12 ng/1) and/or if any individual value exceeds a TBEL
value of 47 ng/l.
Describe proposed permit actions based on mercury evaluation: NA.
Other TMDL/Nutrient Management Strategy Considerations
If applicable, describe any other TNDDLs/Nutrient Management Strategies and their implementation
within this permit: NA.
Page 5 of 9

DocuSign Envelope ID: ED51CD7D-CCAB-4E9B-B4B3-D6BD811B3979
Other WQBEL Considerations
If applicable, describe any other parameters of concern evaluated for WQBELs: NA.
If applicable, describe any special actions (HQW or ORW) this receiving stream and classification shall
comply with in order to protect the designated waterbody: NA.
If applicable, describe any compliance schedules proposed for this permit renewal in accordance with
15A NCAC 2H 0107(c)(2)(B), 40CFR 122.47, and EPA May 2007 Memo: NA.
If applicable, describe any water quality standards variances proposed in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.3(e) and 15A NCAC 2B. 0226 for this permit renewal: NA.
7. Technology -Based Effluent Limitations (TBELs)
Total Suspended Solids (TSS) - TBEL. Secondary treatment standards/40 CFR 133 / 15A NCAC 2B .0406
8. Antidegradation Review (New/Expanding Discharge):
The objective of an antidegradation review is to ensure that a new or increased pollutant loading will not
degrade water quality. Permitting actions for new or expanding discharges require an antidegradation
review in accordance with 15A NCAC 213.0201. Each applicant for a new/expanding NPDES permit must
document an effort to consider non -discharge alternatives per 15A NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2). In all cases,
existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing use is
maintained and protected.
If applicable, describe the results of the antidegradation review, including the Engineering Alternatives
Analysis (EAA) and any water quality modeling results: NA.
9. Antibacksliding Review:
Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(1) prohibit
backsliding of effluent limitations in NPDES permits. These provisions require effluent limitations in a
reissued permit to be as stringent as those in the previous permit, with some exceptions where limitations
may be relaxed (e.g., based on new information, increases in production may warrant less stringent TBEL
limits, or WQBELs may be less stringent based on updated RPA or dilution).
Are any effluent limitations less stringent than previous permit (YES/NO): The NC 2007-2014 Water
Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the US EPA on April 6, 2016 with some
revisions. The approved WQS no longer includes a standard for Manganese. Therefore, we have removed
the Manganese limit from permit NC0088854.
If YES, confirm that antibacksliding provisions are not violated: See rationale above.
10. Monitoring Requirements
Monitoring frequencies for NPDES permitting are established in accordance with the following
regulations and guidance: 1) State Regulation for Surface Water Monitoring, 15A NCAC 213.0500; 2)
NPDES Guidance, Monitoring Frequency for Toxic Substances (7/15/2010 Memo); 3) NPDES Guidance,
Reduced Monitoring Frequencies for Facilities with Superior Compliance (10/22/2012 Memo); 4) Best
Professional Judgement (BPJ). Per US EPA (Interim Guidance, 1996), monitoring requirements are not
Page 6 of 9

DocuSign Envelope ID: ED51 CD7D-CCAB-4E9B-B4B3-D6BD81 1 B3979
considered effluent limitations under Section 402(o) of the Clean Water Act, and therefore anti -
backsliding prohibitions would not be triggered by reductions in monitoring frequencies.
For instream monitoring, refer to Section 4.
11. Electronic Reporting Requirements
The US EPA NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was finalized on December 21, 2015. Effective
December 21, 2016, NPDES regulated facilities are required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports
(DMRs) electronically. Effective December 21, 2020, NPDES regulated facilities will be required to
submit additional NPDES reports electronically. This permit contains the requirements for electronic
reporting, consistent with Federal requirements.

The permit renewal includes the following significant changes from the existing permit:
L The facility map has been updated.
2. Regulatory citations have been added.
3. The facility classification Physical Chemical Not Classified WPCS was added to the effluent page.
4. The limit for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) under zero flow conditions is set at the water quality
standard of 17 ug/1 for Class C waters. Please note that Footnote 2 stipulates the following: The
Division shall consider compliant all TRC effluent values reported below 50 µg/L. However, the
Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by North Carolina -certified
laboratory methods (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 µg/L.
5. The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC
Environmental Management Committee (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA subsequently
approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016 with some exceptions. The NC Division of Water
Resources is required to implement the new dissolved metal standards in all permits public noticed
after April 6, 2016.
The new standards for most metals include acute standards. Furthermore, the freshwater standards
for several metals are expressed as the dissolved form of the metals, and seven metals have
hardness -dependent equations. As a result, the Division will need site -specific effluent hardness
data and instream hardness data, upstream of the discharge, for each facility monitoring these
metals in order to calculate permit limitations. The metal of concern for this permit renewal is
Zinc.
To evaluate dissolved Zinc, a Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) was conducted using data
from DMRs (May2014—Oct2018) [see attached RPA spreadsheets for Outfall 001]. Results
indicated a reasonable potential to exceed the new dissolved metals standard for Zinc.
Consequently, the following daily maximum limits (acute standard) and monthly average limits
(in this case the acute standard) for Total Zinc could be applied for this permit renewal:
Parameter Outfall Monthly Average Limit Daily Maximum Limit
Zinc 001 134.9 µg/L 134.9 µg/L
Please note that the hardness -dependent water quality standard for zinc typically results in a more
stringent permit limit for the acute total allowable metal verses the chronic value. In this situation,
we use the acute total allowable metal concentration (permit limit) as the limitation for both the
Daily Maximum and the Monthly Average.
Hardness data received on July 2, 2019 was used for the calculation of these limits. Since this
facility discharges under zero flow conditions a value of 0 was entered for all stream flow data.
Please note that under zero flow conditions the RPA defaults to a value of 25 mg/L for the
upstream Total Hardness. Additionally, the maximum monthly average flow of 0.0009 MGD
from November 2015 to October 2018 (3 years) data was used as the effluent flow. For a
summary of this information, please see the attached "Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator".
Please note that monitoring for Zinc is now monthly.
6. A compliance schedule [Section A. (2.)] has been added for Total Zinc limits in found Section A.
(1.). The Total Zinc limits will become effective 60 months from the effective date of the permit
instead of 48 months as drafted.
7. Effluent Hardness Sampling was added with quarterly sampling to maintain a hardness database
for this facility. Please note footnote 5 requires that Effluent hardness sampling be performed in
conjunction with sampling for hardness dependent metals (Zinc).

DocuSign Envelope ID: ED51CD7D-CCAB-4E9B-B4B3-D6BD811B3979
8. The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the US
EPA on April 6, 2016 with some revisions. The approved WQS no longer includes a standard for
Manganese. Therefore, we have removed the Manganese limit from permit NC0088854.
13. Public Notice Schedule:
Permit to Public Notice: 07/14/2019 [See Attachment O]
Per 15A NCAC 21-1.0109 & .0111, The Division will receive comments for a period of 30 days following
the publication date of the public notice. Any request for a public hearing shall be submitted to the
Director within the 30 days comment period indicating the interest of the parry filing such request and the
reasons why a hearing is warranted.
14. Fact Sheet Addendum (if applicable):
Were there any changes made since the Draft Permit was public noticed (Yes/No): Yes.
If Yes, list changes and their basis below: A compliance schedule [Section A. (2.)] has been added for
Total Zinc limits in found Section A. (1.). The Total Zinc limits will become effective 60 months from the
effective date of the permit instead of 48 months as drafted.

SLUDGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
For
Aqua North Carolina, Inc.
No sludge will be treated on any wastewater treatment plant site operated
by Aqua N.C., Western Division
Where practical, sludge removed from a Aqua N.C., Western Division
facility will be transported via a contract hauler to another Aqua N.C.,
Western Division facility for the purpose of "seeding" a new or under
loaded plant.
Unusable (or "dead") sludge will be removed by a contract hauler and
properly disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1. Contract
haulers used by Aqua N.C., Western Division will be required to
report the quantity of sludge transported and identify the location of
the proposed disposal site if the sludge is not taken to an existing
plant operated by Aqua N.C., Western Division. Aqua N.C., Western
Division has not entered into any agreement to accept sludge into its
facilities from plants not owned by them.
Aqua N.C., Western Division will keep records on the quantity of sludge
removed from each facility, the name of the contract hauler, and the
destination of the sludge (whether used in another plant or disposed of).
The information will be kept on file and will be made available to any
regulatory agency having jurisdiction over sludge treatment or disposal.
Aqua N.C., Western Division includes all of the facilities under the
jurisdiction of the Winston-Salem Regional Office.

Permit No. NCG590000
PART 1
A. Coverage
(L) Eligibility of Coverage
a. Existing Greensand Water Treatment Plants (WTPs) with individual NPDES permits and new facilities seeking a
NPDES permit for a geensand water purification system utilizing Iron and/or Manganese removal systems are
eligible for coverage under this general permit. Backwash wastewaters from similar activities such as sand filtration
or systems utilizing calcite filtration are eligible and covered under the Greensand WTP effluent requirements section
in this general permit.
b. Existing Conventional WTPs with a wastewater discharge resulting from water purification facilities with filter
backwash, sedimentation basin washdown, and decant from water treatment facilities are eligible for coverage under
this general permit.
(2.) Limitations on Coverage
a. Although this general permit does not cover the following types of discharges, other permits such as an
individual NPDES permit, an alternate general permit, or other approval from the Division may be obtained.
This permit does not authorize discharges from Water Treatment Plants with the following:
• Discharges that are mixed with other process wastewaters.
• Discharges to waters classified as High Quality Waters (HQW) or Outstanding Resource
Waters (ORW).
• Discharges from water purification systems using Membrane Treatment (Reverse Osmosis) or
Ion Exchange.
• Discharges that would adversely affect a Federal or State listed endangered or threatened
species or its critical habitat.
• Discharges of pollutants to an impaired waterbody in excess of the wasteload allocation
specified in an EPA -Approved TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load).
• Discharges from new Conventional WTPs proposing a discharge to surface waters.
b. New Conventional WTPs proposing a discharge to surface waters shall be covered under an individual permit for
at least one permit cycle. Upon permit renewal, if an evaluation of the facility's wastewaters shows no need for
additional limitations or requirements beyond what is contained in this general permit, then the permittee will be
considered for coverage.
c. Conventional WTPs proposing to expand existing facilities shall submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) permit
application with the proposed expansion/treatment details and an Engineering Alternative Analysis for Division
review and approval in order to obtain coverage for the expansion under this permit and receive a revised
Certificate of Coverage (CoC).
d. This permit does not authorize discharges that the Division has determined to be or which may reasonably be
expected to be contributing to a violation of a water quality standard (as defined in the "Red Book" or NC
Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02B .0100, .0200, and .0300).
e. If the Division determines at any time that the discharge is causing or contributing to a violation of water quality
standards or if the Division has any other grounds for modifying or revoking this permit, the Division may require
corrective action or require the discharge be permitted differently in accordance with Part II, Section B of this
permit. The Division may deny coverage under this permit and require submittal of an application for an
individual NPDES permit based on a review of the Notice of Intent (NOI) or other information.
f. Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) test results for the past three years shall be reviewed for existing or
expanding Conventional WTPs applying for coverage under this general permit. Permittees with WET test
results showing potential for aquatic toxicity may be denied coverage under this general permit which
includes a WET limitation of "Pass".
(3.) Transfer Coverage from Other Permits
Upon issuance of this general permit, all existing and active individual permits for Greensand and
Conventional type WTPs will automatically be considered for coverage under this general permit as
permit renewal applications are received.

NPDES permit NCO088854
Surry County
Dear Mr. Becker:
The Division has reviewed your application, received on July 6, 2018, for renewal of NPDES permit
NC0088854. To enable us complete our review in accordance with N.C.G.S. 143-215.1 and 15A NCAC
2H.0105, please provide additional or revised information to address the following comments:
1. Please provide five (5) days of Total Hardness (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)) data for the effluent at
Outfall 001.
2. Please note the attached data reporting errors form May2014 to October 2018 for permit
NCO088854 and others. Many errors involved reporting the incorrect unit of measure (UoM) such
as mg/L verses µg/L. Another error noted was reporting a value of zero (0) for "no detection" for
Total Residual Chorine (TRC) results instead of reporting the method practical quantitation limit
(PQL) such as < 20 µg/L. If these are indeed errors, please correct DMRs accordingly. Please note
you may want to review and correct DMRs since October 2018 as well.
The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC
Environmental Management Committee (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA subsequently
approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016 with some exceptions. The NC Division of Water
Resources is required to implement the new dissolved metal standards in all permits public noticed after
Apri16, 2016.
The new standards for most metals include acute standards. Furthermore, the freshwater standards for
several metals are expressed as the dissolved form of the metals, and seven metals have hardness -
dependent equations. As a result, the Division will need site -specific effluent hardness data and instream
hardness data, upstream of the discharge, for each facility monitoring these metals in order to calculate
permit limitations. The metal of concern for this permit renewal is Zinc.
To evaluate dissolved Zinc, a Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) was conducted using data from
DMRs (May2014—Oct2018) [see attached RPA spreadsheets for Outfall 001]. Results indicated a
reasonable potential to exceed the new dissolved metals standard for Zinc. Consequently, the following

daily maximum limits (acute standard) and monthly average limits (in this case the acute standard) for
Total Zinc could be applied for this permit renewal:
Parameter Outfall Monthly Average Limit Daily Maximum Limit
Zinc 001 125.7 µg/L 125.7 µg/L
Please note that the hardness -dependent water quality standard for zinc typically results in a more
stringent permit limit for the acute total allowable metal verses the chronic value. In this situation, we use
the acute total allowable metal concentration (permit limit) as the limitation for both the Daily Maximum
and the Monthly Average.
To calculate these limits a default hardness of 25 mg/L was entered for both the effluent and upstream
values. Since this facility discharges under zero flow conditions a value of 0 was entered for all stream
flow data. Please note that under zero flow conditions the default value of 25 mg/L will be using for the
upstream Total Hardness. Additionally, the maximum monthly average flow of 0.002 MGD from
November 2015 to October 2018 (3 years) data was used as the effluent flow. For a summary of this
information, please see the attached "Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator".
If no response is received within 60 calendar days [per 15A NCAC 2H.0107(b)], the permit will be
renewed without the benefit of the requested additional information. Therefore, a default effluent
hardness of 25 mg/L will be used to calculate effluent limits for Zinc as indicated above.

Hi Derek,
We have received the hardness results requested for Stonington (NC0088501), Pine Lakes (NC0088854), and Colonial
Woods (NC0088552).
The lab sent them in one file; therefore, I am including the entire set for all three permits listed (attached).
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Thank you,

Subject: Request for Additional Information - Aqua - Colonial Woods Subdivision — Wells #1 & #2 WTP - NPDES permit
NCO088552
Dear Ms. Berger:
The Division has reviewed your application, received on July 6, 2018, for renewal of NPDES permit NC0088552. To
enable us complete our review in accordance with N.C.G.S. 143-215.1 and 15A NCAC 2H.0105, please provide additional
or revised information to address the following comments:

DocuSign Envelope ID: ED51CD7D-CCAB-4E9B-B4B3-D6BD811B3979
1. Please provide five (5) days of Total Hardness (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)) data for the effluent at Outfalls 001 and 002.
2. Please note the attached data reporting errors form May2014 to October 2018 for permit NCO088552 and
others. The data for Zinc is of most importance for this additional information request. Many errors involved
reporting the incorrect unit of measure (UoM) such as mg/L verses µg/L. Another error noted was reporting a
value of zero (0) for "no detection" for Total Residual Chorine (TRC) results instead of reporting the method
practical quantitation limit (PQL) such as < 20 µg/L. If these are indeed errors, please correct DMRs accordingly.
Please note you may want to review and correct DMRs since October 2018 as well.
The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC Environmental
Management Committee (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA subsequently approved the WQS revisions on April
6, 2016 with some exceptions. The NC Division of Water Resources is required to implement the new dissolved metal
standards in all permits public noticed after April 6, 2016.
The new standards for most metals include acute standards. Furthermore, the freshwater standards for several metals
are expressed as the dissolved form of the metals, and seven metals have hardness -dependent equations. As a result,
the Division will need site -specific effluent hardness data and instream hardness data, upstream of the discharge, for
each facility monitoring these metals in order to calculate permit limitations. The metal of concern for this permit
renewal is Zinc.
To evaluate dissolved Zinc, a Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) was conducted using data from DMRs (May2014—
Oct2018) [see attached RPA spreadsheets for Outfalls 001 & 002]. Results indicated a reasonable potential to exceed the
new dissolved metals standard for Zinc. Consequently, the following daily maximum limits (acute standard) and monthly
average limits (in this case the acute standard) for Total Zinc could be applied for this permit renewal:
Parameter
Outfall
Monthly Average
Daily Maximum
Zinc
001
No Limit
No Limit
Zinc
002
125.7 µg/L
125.7 µg/L
Please note that the hardness -dependent water quality standard for zinc typically results in a more stringent permit limit
for the acute total allowable metal verses the chronic value. In this situation, we use the acute total allowable metal
concentration (permit limit) as the limitation for both the Daily Maximum and the Monthly Average.
To calculate these limits a default hardness of 25 mg/L was entered for both the effluent and upstream values. Since this
facility discharges under zero flow conditions a value of 0 was entered for all stream flow data for both Oufalls 001 &
002. Please note that under zero flow conditions the default value of 25 mg/L will be using for the upstream Total
Hardness. Additionally, the maximum monthly average flows of 0.001 MGD for Outfall 001 and 0.001239 MGD for
Outfall 002 from November 2015 to October 2018 (3 years) data was used as the effluent flow. For a summary of this
information, please see the attached "Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator".
If no response is received within 60 calendar days [per 15A NCAC 2H.0107(b)], the permit will be renewed without the
benefit of the requested additional information. Therefore, a default effluent hardness of 25 mg/L will be used to
calculate effluent limits for Zinc as indicated above.
Please submit the additional information requested by one of the following:

General Information on the Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA)
The RPA process itself did not change as the result of the new metals standards. However, application of
the dissolved and hardness -dependent standards requires additional consideration in order to establish the
numeric standard for each metal of concern of each individual discharge.
The hardness -based standards require some knowledge of the effluent and instream (upstream) hardness
and so must be calculated case -by -case for each discharge.
Metals limits must be expressed as `total recoverable' metals in accordance with 40 CFR 122.45(c). The
discharge -specific standards must be converted to the equivalent total values for use in the RPA
calculations. We will generally rely on default translator values developed for each metal (more on that
below), but it is also possible to consider case -specific translators developed in accordance with
established methodology.
RPA Permitting Guidance/WOBELs for Hardness -Dependent Metals - Freshwater
The RPA is designed to predict the maximum likely effluent concentrations for each metal of concern,
based on recent effluent data, and calculate the allowable effluent concentrations, based on applicable
standards and the critical low -flow values for the receiving stream.
If the maximum predicted value is greater than the maximum allowed value (chronic or acute), the
discharge has reasonable potential to exceed the standard, which warrants a permit limit in most cases. If
monitoring for a particular pollutant indicates that the pollutant is not present (i.e. consistently below
detection level), then the Division may remove the monitoring requirement in the reissued permit.
To perform a RPA on the Freshwater hardness -dependent metals the Permit Writer compiles the
following information:
• Critical low flow of the receiving stream, 7Q10 (the spreadsheet automatically calculates
the 1 Q 10 using the formula 1 Q 10 = 0.843 (s7Q 10, CA) 0.993
• Effluent hardness and upstream hardness, site -specific data is preferred
• Permitted flow
• Receiving stream classification
In order to establish the numeric standard for each hardness -dependent metal of concern and for
each individual discharge, the Permit Writer must first determine what effluent and instream
(upstream) hardness values to use in the equations.
The permit writer reviews DMR's, Effluent Pollutant Scans, and Toxicity Test results for any
hardness data and contacts the Permittee to see if any additional data is available for instream
hardness values, upstream of the discharge.
If no hardness data is available, the permit writer may choose to do an initial evaluation using a
default hardness of 25 mg/L (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)). Minimum and maximum limits on the
hardness value used for water quality calculations are 25 mg/L and 400 mg/L, respectively.
If the use of a default hardness value results in a hardness -dependent metal showing reasonable
potential, the permit writer contacts the Permittee and requests 5 site -specific effluent and
upstream hardness samples over a period of one week. The RPA is rerun using the new data.

Permit No. NCO088552
The overall hardness value used in the water quality calculations is calculated as follows:
Combined Hardness (chronic)
_ (Permitted Flow, cfs *Avg. Effluent Hardness, mg/L) + (s7Q10, cfs *Avg. Upstream Hardness, mg/L)
(Permitted Flow, cfs + s7Q10, cfs)
The Combined Hardness for acute is the same but the calculation uses the 1Q10 flow.
3. The permit writer converts the numeric standard for each metal of concern to a total recoverable
metal, using the EPA Default Partition Coefficients (DPCs) or site -specific translators, if any
have been developed using federally approved methodology.
EPA default partition coefficients or the "Fraction Dissolved" converts the value for
dissolved metal at laboratory conditions to total recoverable metal at in -stream
ambient conditions. This factor is calculated using the linear partition coefficients
found in The Metals Translator: Guidance for Calculating a Total Recoverable
Permit Limit from a Dissolved Criterion (EPA 823-B-96-007, June 1996) and the
equation:
Cdiss - 1
Ctotal I + { [KPO] [SS(l+a)] [10-6] i
Where:
ss = in -stream suspended solids concentration [mg/1], minimum of 10 mg/L used,
and
Kpo and a = constants that express the equilibrium relationship between dissolved
and adsorbed forms of metals. A list of constants used for each hardness -dependent
metal can also be found in the RPA program under a sheet labeled DPCs.
4. The numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the default partition coefficient (or
site -specific translator) to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions.
In some cases, where an EPA default partition coefficient translator does not exist (le. silver), the
dissolved numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the EPA conversion factor to
obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions. This method presumes that the metal is
dissolved to the same extent as it was during EPA's criteria development for metals. For more
information on conversion factors see the June, 1996 EPA Translator Guidance Document.
5. The RPA spreadsheet uses a mass balance equation to determine the total allowable concentration
(permit limits) for each pollutant using the following equation:
Ca = (s7Q10 + Qw) (Cwgs) — (s7Q10) (Cb)
Qw
Where: Ca = allowable effluent concentration (µg/L or mg/L)
Cwqs = NC Water Quality Standard or federal criteria (µg/L or mg/L)
Cb = background concentration: assume zero for all toxicants except NH3* (µg/L or mg/L)
Qw = permitted effluent flow (cfs, match s7Q10)
s7Q10 = summer low flow used to protect aquatic life from chronic toxicity and human
health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from noncarcinogens (cfs)
* Discussions are on -going with EPA on how best to address background concentrations
Flows other than s7Q10 may be incorporated as applicable:
1Q10 = used in the equation to protect aquatic life from acute toxicity

Permit No. NC0088552
QA = used in the equation to protect human health through the consumption of water,
fish, and shellfish from carcinogens
30Q2 = used in the equation to protect aesthetic quality
The permit writer enters the most recent 2-3 years of effluent data for each pollutant of concern.
Data entered must have been taken within four and one-half years prior to the date of the permit
application (40 CFR 122.21). The RPA spreadsheet estimates the 95th percentile upper
concentration of each pollutant. The Predicted Max concentrations are compared to the Total
allowable concentrations to determine if a permit limit is necessary. If the predicted max exceeds
the acute or chronic Total allowable concentrations, the discharge is considered to show
reasonable potential to violate the water quality standard, and a permit limit (Total allowable
concentration) is included in the permit in accordance with the U.S. EPA Technical Support
Document for Water Quality -Based Toxics Control published in 1991.
7. When appropriate, permit writers develop facility specific compliance schedules in accordance
with the EPA Headquarters Memo dated May 10, 2007 from James Hanlon to Alexis Strauss on
40 CFR 122.47 Compliance Schedule Requirements.
The Total Chromium NC WQS was removed and replaced with trivalent chromium and
hexavalent chromium Water Quality Standards. As a cost savings measure, total chromium data
results may be used as a conservative surrogate in cases where there are no analytical results
based on chromium III or VI. In these cases, the projected maximum concentration (95th %) for
total chromium will be compared against water quality standards for chromium III and
chromium VI.
9. Effluent hardness sampling and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the discharge, are
inserted into all permits with facilities monitoring for hardness -dependent metals to ensure the
accuracy of the permit limits and to build a more robust hardness dataset.

IV PER-HUDE1,TLOPMENT FOR GREENSAND F"TER TREATM ENT PLANTS
4.1 Background
The following penrutting strategy applies to new and existing water treatment plants using greensand filtration to generate
potable water from groundwater. This categorization would also include many community well systems, "iron filters", and
"manganese filters" as long as they do not back -wash filters with a sodium solution. The permit writer should contact the facility to
verify that there is not a briny discharge. This permitting strategy does not apply to any other kind of cationic exchange unit used
in water treatment. If any portion of the water treatment process includes an ion exchange/water softener unit, then the RO-IE
Permitting Strategy will apply as well.
Typically, a greensand filtration unit is preceded by the use of an aeration tower along with potassium permanganate to
oxidize dissolved iron in the ground water. The particulate ferric hydroxide (and some minor quantities of soluble ferrous material) is
then removed. via filtration through a manganese based greensand media. Greensand is a proprietary material that does not require
sodium cycle regeneration, only backwash with finished (potable) water. Since the discharge from such a facility is not as saline as
that :from a sodium cycle cationic exchange unit, this may be considered a more erivironinentally friendly technology for the treatment
of groundwater. For that reason, unlike other types of ion exchange systems, non -discharge options are sometimes an alternative and
should be explored for new permits. Filter backwash water is usually collected in a settling basin, and the supernatant is then
discharged to surface waters or a. regional treatment works.
4.2 Pollutants of Concern
Typical chemical additives to such treatment systems are an anti-scalant (such as zinc orthophosphate), fluoride, chlorine
and potassium permanganate.

The monitoring requirements included below identify various pollutants of concern including conventional parameters, nutrients,
and toxicants. A brief rationale for the inclusion of these contaminants can be found in Appendix A. Other toxicants were not
included because they were either not detected or rarely detected in the effluent data surveyed. However, if a pollutant specific
problem is detected in the receiving stream, effluent, or source water then a monitoring requirement may be added for that parameter.
Likewise, if data indicate that a pollutant is not present in the facility's discharge, that parameter may be dropped from the
requirements. Limits should be added if the facility shows reasonable potential to exceed water quality standards for toxicants. New
facilities should monitor for pollutants of concerns regardless of whether or not there is a water quality standard. Monitoring
requirements can be re-evaluated during subsequent renewals.

Notes to permit writers:
1. For instantaneous flow monitoring, the duration of the discharge must be reported in addition to the total flow. The
monitoring frequency for flow should be as frequent as the minimum frequency of monitoring for any parameter listed.
2. Footnote for permit: Limit and monitor only if the facility adds chlorine or chlorine derivatives to water that is eventually
discharged. The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 ug/I 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 ug/l.
S. Monitor 2/month if discharge is < O5 MGD and monitor weekly if discharge is >0-5 MGD
4. If the receiving stream is impaired for turbidity a daily maximum limit should be given. See Appendix A for limit and footnote.
5. Fluoride should be monitored if the Permittee backwashes with fluoridated finished water.
6. Zinc should be monitored if the Permittee adds zinc orthophosphate as a corrosion inhibitor prior to backwashing.

V. LUPLEMENTA TION
5.1. Monitoring Frequency
In order to be consistent with the monitoring guidance employed for other permits across the state, monitoring
Z:>
frequencies will be based on the flow divisions used to define facility class in the 15A NCAC 08C .0302 regulations.
Requirements described in 15A NCAC 2B .0508(d) for water supply plants were used as guidance. Table 5 summarizes
the monitoring requirements. After sufficient data have been collected (eight to 12 data points over at least one year) the
permittee may petition for a reduction in monitoring.

If a parameter is not currently limited hut requires a limitation based on potential, increase sainplingftequeney by one

5.2. Wiole Effluent Toxicity Testing
Membrane, ion exchange, and conventional WTPs should be required to conduct quarterly WET tests for monitoring
purposes. Eventually, the Division may choose to use this data to develop additional policy. The type of WET test
conducted will vary depending on receiving stream characteristics. In addition, the level of available dilution and tidal
effects will determine whether the facility should perform an acute or chronic test, while the type of water (freshwater or
saltwater) will determine which organism should be used. Table I summarizes WET -testing requirements. Appendix A
includes sample WET language.

Good afternoon Derek,
Apologies for the late response. We have not had an opportunity to visit these sites and I do not wish to hold you up
from your review. Please go ahead and begin working on these permits.
Aqua did investigate the source of the zinc and determined that its source was the polyphosphate. Aqua is no longer
utilizing this version of poly. The current polyphosphate formulation should not contain zinc.
Let me know if you have any questions, and once again may apologies.

Hi John and Derek,
Aqua respectfully requests a 90 day extension on permit issuance for Stonington WTP (NC 0088501), Pine Lakes WTP
(NC0088554), and Colonial Woods WTP (NC 0088552) to allow us time to investigate if these sites meet the conditions of
the NPDES program. This will require inspection and visitation by not only Aqua staff but also the Winston Salem
Regional Office. Aqua would also like to utilize this time to investigate the source of zinc that was previously reported in
2017 DMRs.
We appreciate your time and consideration on this request. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not
hesitate to contact me.

That's exactly why I was questioning the intent here.
Stonington has had a NPDES permit (88501) since approximately 2007 for discharge of water conditioning wastewater to
Abbott's Creek. What's changed? Has the discharge been eliminated? If not, what's the purpose of revisiting, "...if these
sites meet the conditions of the NPDES program"? If the discharge hasn't been eliminated, then obviously they meet the
conditions and the permit is still required.
As for the other two facilities in question, Pine Lakes WTP (88854) and Colonial Woods WTP (88552), 1 have never
inspected those facilities but I am the NPDES program consultant in the Winston-Salem Regional Office and have not
been made aware of the elimination of either of those discharges.

Ron,
NPDES is for discharge to WOTUS, Waters of the United States. If the systems do not discharge to WOTUS, then NPDES
is not the appropriate permit.

Hello All,
What exactly does it mean, "...if these sites meet the conditions of the NPDES program"? If the facilities discharge then
they still require a permit. The only way to eliminate the permit is to first eliminate the discharge...
Am I missing something here?
