Subject: NPDES Permit Issuance
Permit No. NCO020401
City of Hickory
Catawba County
Dear Mr. Kirby:
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).
The following changes have been incorporated into the final permit based on comments
received from the City of Hickory.
The limit for Toluene has been modified to 82.0 }Lg/L. The standard for toluene was
incorrectly transcribed when calculating the limit for toluene. Therefore, the limit has been
recalculated and adjusted accordingly.
The limit for phenol has been recalculated using the minimum average daily flow released from
the Lake Rhodhiss dam. Using the higher regulated stream flow rate the phenol limit has been
modified to 25.2 µg/L.
In order to enhance the quality of the data, the Division recommends that the City of Hickory
evaluate alternative methods for the analysis of metals. The Division understands that currently the City
of Hickory's labs analyze metals using the Flame Atomic Adsorption Method. Though this method is
still recommended for select metals (i.e. iron) the quantitation levels achievable using flame atomic
adsorption typically are significantly higher than the quantitation levels achievable by Graphite Furnace
AA or Axialview ICP. The use of an alternative method capable of achieving lower detection levels
will aid the City and the Division in assessing the facilities effluent and the NPDES permit
requirements.
This facility discharges to Catawba River (Lake Hickory) in the Catawba River Basin. The
Division is developing a management strategy for discharges to Lake Hickory. This management
strategy may affect future NPDES permit allocations. Although no total nitrogen, and/or total

If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are
unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty
(30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition,
conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of
Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless
such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this -permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division
may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the
Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be
required.

A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to
Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 13%.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarter ly 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 Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent
versions. The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July, October. 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 Il 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 11 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 TGP3B for the
pass/fail results and TI-1P313 for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the
following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Branch
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 chemical/physical 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.

pEfiR -'HATER QUALITY
pQIN1 SOURCE BRANCH
The City of Hickory requires a NPDES discharge permit to dispose of treated municipal
wastewater to waters of the state. The City of Hickory's NPDES permit has expired and they
have requested renewal of their permit. The Division of Water Quality's NPDES Unit issues
the permits for individually permitted facilities, and determines the conditions that must be
achieved prior to discharging wastewater. This fact sheet summarizes the rationale used to
determine permit limits and conditions.
A 6 MGD wastewater treatment plant, operated by the City of Hickory, discharges into the
Catawba River (Lake Hickory). The treatment plant receives flow from the 7 Significant
Industrial Users (SIUs) (see Table 1) that comprise approximately 21% of the total flow.

The treatment plant discharged an annual average of 3.483 MGD and 3.5451 MGD for 1999 and
2000 (Jan'00 through Oct'00) respectively. Based on these figures the facility is discharging at
approximately 58% and 59% of the permitted flow.
Wastewater generated is treated using an extended air plant consisting of the following
treatment units:
• Influent sampler
• Parshall flume
• Dual influent bar screens
• Grit chamber
• Four rectangular and one circular primary clarifiers
• Eight aeration basins (total volume - 2,000,000 gallon)
• Two circular secondary clarifiers
• Chlorine disinfection
• Dechlorination
• Post aeration
Sludge generated at the facility is thickened prior to transport to the City's composting facility.
The following treatment units are used to manage the sludge generated at the facility:
Two gravity belt thickeners
• One sludge holding tank
Current Stream Conditions
The receiving stream is the Catawba River or Lake Hickory. The receiving stream at the
discharge point is classified WS-V and B water in the Catawba River Basin. Lake Hickory is a
run -of river impoundment located between Lake Rhodhiss and Lookout Shoals Lake on the
Catawba River. A three year study of Lake Hickory was conducted by USGS, Western
Piedmont Council of Governments and DWQ from January 1993 through March 1994. Two
samples collected during the study exceeded the NC standard for chlorophyll a. The main
parameters of concern were documented as chlorophyll a, nutrients and dissolved oxygen.
The Basin plan mentions that the USGS and the Western Piedmont Council of Governments
developed a model and that DWQ was in the process of developing a management strategy for
Lake Hickory. To date, no management strategy has been developed and it is unclear when the
management strategy will be developed. Therefore, this permit renewal will not reflect the
Fact Sheet
NPDES Renewal
Page 2

pending management strategy. The permittee will be notified that a management strategy is
pending for dischargers to Lake Hickory and that this may affect future NPDES permit
allocations.
Instream Monitoring
The current permit requires the facility to monitor dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform,
temperature, and conductivity upstream and downstream of the discharge point7.
Referring to the in -stream dissolved oxygen assessment, there has been only one violation of
the stream standard for DO in the past 2 years (1999 - 2000).
Fecal coliform data is difficult to interpret due to the influence of numerous non -point source
inputs, however, the in -stream data generally indicated fecal coliform levels below the
standard. There were isolated occurrences where the stream standard was exceeded.
The in -stream conductivity generally indicated no difference between the upstream and the
downstream sampling stations.
There are no proposed changes for the in -stream sampling requirements.
Compliance Summary:
July 24,1998 - Civil assessment issued for 7 violations of the phenol limit and 2 violations of the
total suspended solids limit over the period February 1997 through July 1997.
April 1998 violation of toxicity limit. NOV issued June 18,1998.
May 26,1998 NOV issued for unreported sewer bypass occurring on April 13, 1998.
February 1998 - violation of TSS limit. NOV issued April 13,1998.
September 1999 - NOD issued for deficiencies noted during the September 1999 inspection.
Deficiencies included problems with the effluent sampler and potential I & I problems.
Toxicity Testing
Current Requirement: Chronic Toxicity (ceriodaphnia) P/F at 13%, Jan, April, July, Oct.
Over the past four years the facility has consistently passed the chronic toxicity assay having
failed only once in April 1998.
Recommended Requirement: Chronic Toxicity (ceriodaphnia) P/ F at 13 %, Jan, April, July, Oct
Notes
The treatment schematic supplied with the permit application indicates that two digesters are
present on the site, however the treatment units listed do not include this. Need to verify the
existing treatment units.
Reasonable Potential Analysis
Cadmium - The limit for cadmium shall remain. Though reasonable potential indicates that
the limit is eligible for removal, there are questions surrounding data validation. Therefore,
the limit shall remain as a condition for the permit.
Copper - No change continue to monitor copper per the Division's Action Level Policy.
Zinc - The monitoring requirement shall remain as a condition for the permit. The reasonable
potential analysis suggest that there is not reasonable potential to exceed the action level for
Pact Sheet
NPI)ES Renewal
Page 3

zinc. However, there have been several significant detections that warrant continuance of the
monitoring requirement.
Phenols - The reasonable potential analysis indicates that there is a reasonable potential to
exceed the water quality standard for phenols in a receiving stream designated as a water
supply.
Silver - Continue monitoring according to the Division's action level policy.
Mercury - Removed mercury monitoring. Reasonable potential analysis indicates that there is
not a reasonable potential to exceed the water quality standard for mercury. Therefore the
monitoring requirement has been removed.
Cyanide - There is no reasonable potential to exceed the water quality standard for cyanide.
The facility periodically detected cyanide in their effluent, therefore cyanide monitoring shall
be required at a monthly monitoring frequency.
Lead - There is no reasonable potential. However, the facility has periodically recorded lead
concentrations and there are potential validation issues with the data. Therefore, lead
monitoring shall be required.
Toluene - There is a reasonable potential to exceed the water quality standard.
Arsenic - There is not reasonable potential. The facility's last quantifiable detection of arsenic
was 9/99. Based on this the facility shall be required to monitor arsenic on a monthly basis.
This will not increase the frequency beyond what the facility is already conducting per the
LTMP.
Chromium - No reasonable potential exist. There are potential validation issues, therefore
monitoring shall be required.
Selenium - No reasonable potential exist. The facility has had periodic quantifiable detections
of selenium. Therefore monitoring shall be required.
Proposed Changes
The stream classification has been changed from WS-IV & B to WS-V & B.
See Reasonable Potential above.

In -Stream DO Assessment Instructions -
Shaded areas require user inputs. If salinity and/or elevation are unknown and cannot be
determined then leave blank, this will not affect the final outcome. After entering data
drag the DO saturation cells, percent saturation cells, and impact assessment cells
down to the appropriate line.
Note: that if salinity or elevation values are not enter then the DO saturation values only
represent the temperature corrected values only.
