previous permittee) to the Division for the approval to construct the 0.0075 MGD wastewater
treatment facility included a dual tablet -feed chlorinator. Therefore, a dual tablet -feed
chlorinator must be installed prior to the chlorine contact chamber as previously approved by
the Division. Please be advised that the NPDES Permit requires the permittee to properly
operate and maintain the facility at all times (Permit Reference: Part Il, Section C(2) Proper

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 October 15,
2007 (or as subsequently amended).
Please note that proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge
monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such
submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA). Therefore, a requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using g the
NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to this
final permit. [See Special Condition A. (3.)] For information on eDMR, registering for eDMR and
obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit the following web page:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/adminibog/ipu/edmr.
For information on EPA's proposed NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule, please visit the following
web site: http://www2.epa.gov/compliance/proposed-npdes-electronic-reporting-rule.
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 permit 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 Resources or any other Federal, State, or Local governmental permits that may be
required.

The Permittee must notify the public of untreated wastewater spills. Wastewater facility owners or operators
must issue a press release after a discharge to surface waters of 1,000 gallons within 24 hours of first
knowledge of the spill by the owner/operator. The press release must be issued to "all electronic and print news
media outlets that provide general coverage in the counties (Catawba, Iredell, Lincoln and Mecklenburg) where
the discharge occurred." A copy of the press release must be maintained for one year by the Permittee. This
press release is required in addition to the permit requirement of contacting the North Carolina Division of
Water Resources (DWR).
If a discharge of 15,000 gallons or more reaches surface water, a public notice is required in addition to the
press release. The public notice must be placed in a newspaper having general circulation in the County in
which the discharge occurred and the county immediately downstream. The owner or operator shall publish the
notice within 10 days after the Secretary has determined the counties that are significantly affected by the
discharge and approved the form and content of the notice and the newspapers in which the notice is to be
published. At a minimum the notice should be published in the newspaper of general circulation in Catawba,
Iredell, Lincoln and Mecklenburg Counties. If a discharge of 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater or more reaches
surface waters, the DWR regional office must be contacted to determine in what additional counties, if any, a
public notice must be published. A copy of these public notices and proof of publication must be sent to the
DWR to the attention of "Non Discharge Compliance Enforcement Unit" at the letterhead address within 30
days of publication. The minimum content of the notice is the location of the discharge, estimated volume,
water body affected and steps taken to prevent future discharges.

A. (3.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[G. S. 143-215.1(b)]
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and
specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit
DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this permit
(Standard Conditions forNPDESPermits):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention

reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring
Report (eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter monitoring data
and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state's eDMR application is
compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic Reporting Regulation (CROMERR), permittees will be required
to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state electronically using eDMR and will be required to complete
the eDMR submission by printing, signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the computer
printed eDMR to the following address:
NC DENR / DWR / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility being
physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband access, then a
temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted and discharge monitoring
data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1. 1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director.
Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be submitted in
writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the facility would be
required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months and
shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the
permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following web page:
