Post Office Box 39 Marble, North Carolina 28905 WAYNE.MCDEVITT -`SECRETARY Subject : Compliance Evaluation Inspection NPDES Permit Number NCO079031 Industrial Opportunities, Inc. Cherokee County 'A.PRESToI�HowARD JR,` \ .Dear Mr. O' Brien: An inspection was conducted March 26, 1998 of the wastewater treatment plant serving the Industrial Opportunities facility. As the enclosed inspection report gindicates, the facility was generating an effluent in ' compliance with permit limits . • During the inspection, I noticed that the blower did not ;come on in accordance with the automatic timer. Upon checking, I found the breaker for the blower was thrown. Once the reset button was pushed the blower came on. A power ` surge could have caused this, however, the electrical panel should be checked to ensure there are no . other causes . Jim :Manley was notified of the problem and asked to periodically -,. check the blowers until the electrical system could be "t 5° evaluated. Is the second blower working? If it is, is it set up to alternate with the first blower? If this blower is not - working, it should be repaired so that it will be ready to come on line when needed. There is no operator log on site and it is my opinion that very little operator time is spent at the plant, otherwise, the problem with the blower would have been -, caught . (The appearance of the plant seemed to indicate that it had been off for a few hours . ) An operator' s log is required for this treatment plant and should be located on INTERCHANGE BUILDING,59 WOODFIN PLACE,ASHEVILLE, NC 2880 1-24 1 4 PHONES28-251-6208 FAX 828-251-6452 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER-50% RECYCLED/10 POST-CONSUMER PAPER Mr. Tom O' Brien April 15, 1998 Page Two site for convenient access by an inspector.

The plant appeared to have been off for a few hours but had not yet become septic. The other blower does not appear to be working. The plant is not receiving enough operator attention. There is no operator log on site. Both the lack of operator attention and log were discussed with the operator who assured the inspector that they would be taken care of. There is a possibility that this facility will be connected to the Town of Andrew's WWTP. McGill and Assoc. are looking to combine this project with other sewer line repair and WWTP upgrades.

Box 39 Marble, _North Carolina 28905 Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection' NPDES Permit Number NCO079031 . Cherokee County • Dear Mr. O'Brien: The subject inspection was conducted on' January 8, 1997 . As the enclosed inspection report indicates, the. facility was and has been having . difficulty retaining solids in the treatment Earlier in the year violations of both Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) were occurring. The main problem was due to two factors . . . . . insufficient food for the microbial population in the aeration basin and a treatment- plant that is badly out of level. Since then, Jim Manley, at my recommendation, has been adding sugar to the treatment plant. As a result, the BOD5 concentration in the effluent has decreased dramatically. He has not been able to coordinate the feeding rate- ;with the aeration cycle so that the microbial population develops enough weight to settle properly. Mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) were analyzed to determine their concentration. At 5800 mg/l,`. the concentration is too high, and I recommended .to Jim that he pump the tank of • some of the solids . Ideally, the mixed liquor suspended -solids concentrations should run between 2000 mg/1 to 4500 mg/l. Jim 'will be running a 30 minute settleable solids test 2 to 3 Interchange Building,59 Woodfin Place Ni FAX 704-251-6452 Asheville,North Carolina 28801 �� An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer Voice 704-251-6208 - 50%recycles/10%post-consumer paper Mr. Tom O'Brien January . 27, 1997 'A P4ge ..Two J 4 times/week. He will also be feeding the plant on a more routine basis . Either I or Mike Ladd can perform additional MLSS tests to determine the concentration the treatment plant needs to maintain to achieve compliance. The air line to the skimmer or the joint, itself, is leaking. - _When the skimmer is turned up, volumes of air stir up sludge in the bottom of the clarifier. This needs to be fixed. Also,, if this plant is to remain in operation, installation of a sludge holding tank will become necessary. It is nearly impossible 'to 'control the MLSS without a means of wasting solids from the plant. The new Cherokee County Landfill is due to be on line sometime in 1998 . Since the Town of Andrew' s sewer collection system is in close proximity to the landfill, extension of a sewer line to the landfill seems to be the most logical solution to dealing with the leachate. Provisions could be made so that I0I and others who 'need sewer service as well as Coats American • could access this line. Because of the difficulties associated with the operation of your treatment plant and because this plant is also in need of. ,a sludge holding tank and other mechanical repairs, connection to Andrew' s sewer collection system would provide a cost effective and environmentally sound alternative. ' I will be reinspecting the treatment plant in the next few weeks . If you should have any questions, please call me at 704- 251-6208, ext . 258 . Sincerely, 65 Kerry S.

Section D:Summary of Findings/Comments (Attach additional sheets if.necessary) The treatment plant has been having problems retaining solids in the aeration basin. The chlorination tank was filled to the level of the effluent pipe with solids. The clarifier was covered with a thick layer of scum. The 30 min.Settleable Solids conc. was 500 ml/I with a cloudy supernatant. The color was reddish brown. MLSS concentration was 5800 mg/I. I recommended that the scum baffle board be replaced, the air leak in the skimmer line be fixed, and solids wasted from'the treatment plant. Jim Manley has been feeding the plant to boost microbial development, however, it has not been consistent enough to allow for better . coordination of aeration. He is to feed on a routine basis and perform various process tests until the correct combination of food, air,and MLSS are obtained to achieve compliance. The treatment plant is badly out of level. The effluent weir has been modified to account for this to prevent solids from short circuiting. A sewer line from the Town of Andrews will be installed to collect the leachate from the new Cherokee landfill once it comes on line in 1998. This line will be close enough to the 101 plant and others in the area which need sewer to allow connection. Since monies will have to be spent in repairs to this plant and for continued operation and testing, it would be better in the long run for 101 to connect to Andrew's sewer system.

Kerry Becker. I have reviewed the areas needing to be addressed with our staff and Mike Ladd, Plant Operator. We will make the necessary repairs immediately, and inform Ms. Kerry Becker of any problems we encounter. I appreciate Ms . Becker's consultation and feel sure, we can improve the performance of the Waste Water Treatment Plant as soon as possible. Thanks again for the support and advice from the Asheville office.

Guthrie, Regional Manager Asheville Regional Office WATER QUALITY SECTION March 31, 1995 Mr. Tom O'Brien, Director Industrial Opportunities, Inc. Post Office Box 39 Marble, North Carolina 28905 Subject : NOTICE OF VIOLATION /Compliance Sampling Inspection Industrial Opportunities, Inc. Wastewater Treatment Plant NPDES%Permit Number NCO079031 Ch okee County Dear Mr. O'Brien: An inspection was conducted March -23, 1995 of the wastewater treatment plant serving the Industrial -Opportunities, Inc. (IOI) manufacturing facility. As the enclosed inspection report indicates, the facility was in violation of the NPDES permit limit for Total Suspended Solids . The aeration basin contained no solids and a microscopic examination of the aeration basin contents revealed absolutely no microbial activity. The influent pH was 9 . 1 standard units . Since this facility has had a viable microbial population in the past and since the influent pH is high, the cause of the treatment plant' s present condition is most likely due to the discharge of chemicals to it which are destroying the microorganisms . Until the source (s) of the toxicity are found, the treatment plant will not recover. On March 29, 1995, Ms. Kerry Becker again stopped by IOI to check on the condition of the plant and to evaluate the cleaning solutions used at the plant since the manufacturing is essentially a dry process . pH analyses of several of the cleaning solutions showed -that the floor cleaner used has a pH of 11 . 0 . In addition, one of the disinfectants, if not properly used, could also be contributing to the poor condition of the plant . As she discussed with your staff, general household cleaning solutions will be switched out for the industrial cleaning agents to see if the plant recovers! Interchange Building,59 Woodfin Place,Asheville,N.C.28801 Telephone 704-251-6208 FAX 704-251-6452 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50%recycled/10%post-consumer paper Mr. Tom O'Brien March 31, 1995 Page Two Overall, the treatment facility is in need of general repair and maintenance. The following items need addressing: 1 . The treatment plant is not level. This hampers maintaining solids concentration in the treatment plant . It should be leveled when the opportunity presents itself. 2 . The treatment plant, itself, is in need of repainting. 3 . There is approximately 18 - 24 inches of septic sludge in the chlorine chamber. This should be removed. 4 . There is only one blower in operation. The second one is missing the motor. This needs to be replaced. Ms . Becker will conduct a follow-up inspection within the next four weeks . If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact Ms . Becker at 704-251-6208 .

Evaluation of several of the cleaning solutions showed at least two of them to have high pH. Overall,the treatment is in general disrepair. Only one blower is in service;thereis no motor for the second blower. This needs to be replaced. There is approximately 18 to 24 inches of septic sludge in the clarifier which needs to be removed. The plant is not level. Plans should be in the works so that when the opportunity presents itself, it gets leveled. This will help maintain solids in the aeration basin and clarifier. The plant, itself,also needs repainting. A follow-up inspection is planned for the month of April. Name(s)and Signature(s)of Inspector(s) Agency/Office/Telephone Date Kerry S.

On 1/24/97 after a visit from Kerry Becker, I made a phone call to you and asked if you could run some extra test on our plant as both Kerry and I were to be out of town the next week. We have not received any results on the test. Mike, please send me copies of the results so that I can send them to Kerry. All of us here at Industrial Opportunities, Inc. want to have our plant compliant. Lets all work together to see that this happens.

The problem with the toxicity appears to be ink that is used in the marking of the straps for the military. We have discontinued the washing of the applications in the sink. I believe this will stop the microorganisms for being destroyed. Please advise me on the repainting of the Treatment Plant. We may close the facility the week of July 4th. This would be a good time to repaint the Treatment Plant. I appreciate your advice, please let me know if we still have problems with no solids and no microbial activity. Thank you.

Part II Page 1 of 14 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS SECTION A. DEFINITIONS 1. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. 2. DEM or"the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. EMC Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. 4. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended,33 USC 1251,et. seq. 5. Mass/Day Measurements a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by.the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month. It is therefore,an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the permit. b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily Maximum,"in Part I of the permit. d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is,therefore,an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit. Part II Page 2 of 14 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. b. The "average weekly concentration," other than'for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week(arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". it is identified as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits"in Part I of the permit. d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I. f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit. g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June,July through September,and October through December. Part II Page 3 of 14 7. Other Measurements a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An"instantaneous flow measurement"is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. 8. Types of Samples a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of: (1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection,or (2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (3)a single,continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow. In accordance with (1) above,.the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6)hours nor the number of samples less than four(4) during a 24 hour sampling period. b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the receiving waters. 9. Calculation of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1). c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. Part II Page 4 of 14 j 10. Calendar Day A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive.24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. 11.Hazardous Substance A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. 12.Toxic Pollutant A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. i SECTION B.

Previous Permits All previous National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permits issued to this facility, whether for operation or discharge, are hereby revoked by issuance of this permit. IThe exclusive authority to operate this facility arises under this permit. The authority to operate the facility under previously issued permits bearing this number is no longer effective. 1 The conditions, requirements, terms, and provisions,of this permit authorizing discharge under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System govern discharges from this facility. SECTION C. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF POLLUTION CONTROLS 1. Certified Operator Pursuant to Chapter 90A-44 of North Carolina General Statutes, and upon classification of the facility by the Certification Commission, the permittee shall employ a certified wastewater treatment plant operator in responsible charge (ORC) of the wastewater treatment facilities. Such operator must hold a certification of the grade equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the wastewater treatment facilities by the Certification Commission. The permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type and any grade to comply with the conditions of Title 15A, Chapter 8A .0202. The ORC of the facility must visit each Class 1 facility at least weekly and each Class II, III, and IV facility at least daily, excluding weekends and holidays, and must properly manage and document daily operation and maintenance of the facility and must comply with all other conditions of Title 15A, Chapter 8A .0202. Once the facility is classified, the permittee shall submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates the operator in responsible charge within thirty days after the wastewater treatment facilities are 50% complete. 2. Proper Operation and Maintenance The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems which are installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Part II Page 8 of 14 3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this permit. 4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities a. Definitions (1) 'Bypass" means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system,which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. (2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. b. Bypass not exceeding limitations. The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions-of-Paragraphs c.and d:of this section. c. Notice (1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part II,E. 6.of this permit. (24 hour notice). d. Prohibition of Bypass (1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass,unless: (A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (C)The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section. Part II Page 9 of 14 5. Upsets a. Definition. "Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. b. Effect of an upset. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review. c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset. A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed,contemporaneous operating logs,or other relevant evidence that: (1)An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset; (2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and (3)The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of this permit. (4) The permittee complied with any _remedial measures required under Part II, B. 2. of this permit. d. Burden of proof. In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof. 6. Removed Substances Solids, sludges,filter backwash,or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and in a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United States. The permittee shall comply with all existing federal regulations governing the disposal of sewage sludge. Upon promulgation of 40 CFR Part 503,any permit issued by the Permit Issuing Authority for the utilization/disposal of sludge may be reopened and modified, or revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable requirements at 40 CFR Part 503. The permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part 503 Standards for the Use and Disposal of Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the time provided in the regulation, even if the permit is not modified to incorporate the requirement. The permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant change in its sludge use or disposal practices. 7. Power Failures The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by DEM Regulation, Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H, .0124 Reliability, to prevent the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated wastes during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power sources,standby generators or retention of inadequately treated effluent. Part II Page 10 of 14 SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS 1. Representative Sampling Samples collected and measurements taken, as. required herein, shall be characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples collected at a frequency less than daily shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge over the entire period which the sample represents. All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit and, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed without notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority. 2. Reporting Monitoring results obtained during the previous months) shall be summarized for each month and reported on a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report .(DMR) Form (DEM No. MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director, DEM, postmarked no later than the 30th day following the completed reporting period. 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. Duplicate signed copies of these, and all other reports required herein, shall be submitted to the following address: Division of Water Quality Water Quality Section ATTENTION: Central Files Post Office Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535 3. Flow Measurements Appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted scientific practices shall be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. The devices shall be installed, calibrated and maintained to ensure that the accuracy of the measurements are consistent with the accepted capability of that type of device. Devices selected shall be capable of measuring flows with a maximum deviation of less than + 10% from the true discharge rates throughout the range of expected discharge volumes. Once-through condenser cooling water flow which is monitored by pump logs,or pump hour meters as specified in Part I of this permit and based on the manufacturer's pump curves shall not be subject to this requirement. 4. Test Procedures Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations published pursuant to NCGS 143-215.63 et. seq, the Water and Air Quality Reporting Acts, and to regulations published pursuant to Section 304(g),33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136; or in the case of sludge use or disposal, approved under 40 CFR 136,unless otherwise specified in 40 CFR 503, unless other test procedures have been specified in this permit. To meet the intent of the monitoring required by this permit, all test procedures must produce minimum detection and reporting levels that are below the permit discharge requirements and all data generated must be reported down to the minimum detection or lower reporting level of the procedure. If no approved methods are determined capable of achieving minimum detection and Part II Page 11 of 14 reporting levels below permit discharge requirements, then the most sensitive (method with the lowest possible detection and reporting level) approved method must be used. 5. Penalties for Tampering The Clean Water Act provides that any person who falsifies, tampers with, or knowingly renders inaccurate, any monitoring device or method required to be maintained under this permit shall, upon conviction,be punished by a fine of not more than$10,000 per violation,or by imprisonment for not more than two years per violation, or by both. If a conviction of a person is for a violation committed after a first conviction of such person under this paragraph, punishment is a fine of not more than$20,000 per day of violation,or by imprisonment of not more than 4 years,or both. 6. Records Retention Except for records of monitoring information required by this permit related to the permittee's sewage sludge use and disposal activities, which shall be retained for a period of at least five years (or longer as required by 40 CFR 503), the permittee shall retain records of all monitoring information, including all calibration and maintenance records and all original strip chart recordings for continuous monitoring instrumentation, copies of all reports required by this permit, for a period of at least 3 years from the date of the sample, measurement, report or application. This period may be extended by request of the Director at any time. 7. Recording Results For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of this permit, the permittee shall record the following information: a.- The date,exact place,and time of sampling or measurements; b. The individual(s)who performed the sampling or measurements; c. The date(s) analyses were performed; d. The individual(s) who performed the analyses; e. The analytical techniques or methods used; and f. The results of such analyses. 8.

Part II Page 12 of 14 SECTION E. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 1. Change in Discharge All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms and conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant identified in this permit more frequently than or at a level in excess of that authorized shall constitute a violation of the permit. 2. Planned Changes The permittee shall give notice to the Director as soon as possible of any planned physical alterations or additions to the permitted facility. Notice is required only when: a. The alteration or addition to a permitted facility may meet one of the criteria for determining whether a facility is a new source in 40 CFR Part 122.29 (b);or b. The alteration or addition could significantly change the nature or increase the quantity of pollutants discharged. This notification applies to pollutants which are subject neither to effluent limitations in the permit, nor to notification requirements under 40 CFR Part 122.42 (a) c. The alteration or addition results in a significant change in the permittee's sludge use or disposal practices, and such alternation, addition or change may justify the application of permit conditions that are different from or absent in the existing permit, including notification of additional use or disposal sites not reported during the permit application process or not reported pursuant to an approved land application plan. 3. Anticipated Noncompliance The permittee shall give advance notice to the Director of any planned changes in the permitted facility or activity which may result in noncompliance with permit requirements. 4. Transfers This permit is not transferable to any person except after notice to the Director.

Box 39 Marble,North Carolina 28905 Subject: Compliance Evaluation Inspection Status: Marginal Compliance IOI Wastewater Treatment Facility NPDES Permit#NC0079031 erokee County Dear Mr. O'Brien: Inspections were conducted April 23 and June 25,2002 of the wastewater treatment facility serving the Industrial Opportunities, Inc. As the enclosed inspection report indicates, samples of the effluent could not be collected due to the Division of Water Quality's inability to fill the vacant position in the field office's laboratory. However, it should be noted that during both inspections sludge had accumulated in the final chamber to within an inch of the surface of the water. As this becomes septic, clumps of black, odorous sludge will exit the plant via the effluent. These solids need to be pumped from this chamber. During the June 25, 2002 inspection,the pump station that will connect the IOI to the Town of Andrews' collection system was under construction. Although this is forthcoming it is still a few months away and, therefore,the facility must be maintained and operated in such a manner as to comply with permit limits and conditions. If you should have any questions,please contact me at 828-251-6208, extension 258.

Our remaining permit writers are currently reviewing Authorizations to Construct,speculative limit requests,major permit modifications and 201 plan updates ahead of permit renewals. This is necessary due to a variety of factors,including mandatory deadlines in the statutes which govern our program. If this staff shortage delays reissuance of NCO079031 the existing requirements in your permit will remain in effect until the permit is renewed(or the Division takes other action).
