Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (Duke Energy) hereby requests updates to the subject NPDES permit
renewal application submitted 11/12/2019 to make the following changes:
Decommissioning of the retired Dan River Steam Station, combustion turbines, and
remaining facilities was completed in 2017. Outfalls SW003, SW003A, SW003B, SW004,
SW005, SW006, and SWO11 were removed during the final grading of this area. These
outfalls were removed by letter dated 1/29/2017 from permit and monitoring requirements
by Winston Salem Regional Office. Duke Energy requests that these outfalls be removed
from the permit.
2. Based on a site visit on July 11, 2017 from the Winston Salem Regional Office, it was
determined that outfalls SW007, SW007A, and SW008 were not associated with industrial
activity and were removed by Winston Salem Regional office in letter dated 7/14/2017.
Duke Energy requests that these outfalls be removed from the permit.
With final grading of the site for ash basin closure the drainage area for SW009 will
decrease to 12.6 acres as outlined in Minor Modification Request dated 7/30/2020. This
drainage area includes stormwater from the combined cycle maintenance fabrication shop,
which is an enclosed building with concrete floors. The industrial activity within this area
consists of minimal material laydown. Duke Energy requests that this outfall be removed
from the permit due to lack of industrial activity.
4. Analytical monitoring requirements for stormwater outfall SW001 includes monitoring for
total nitrogen. The domestic wastewater treatment system was located within SW001
drainage area when the original stormwater permit application was submitted. This system
was removed and replaced with a non -discharge septic system in 2017. Duke Energy

requests that the requirement for analytical monitoring for total nitrogen at outfall SWO01
be removed from the permit.
5. An updated analytical results spreadsheet is included in Attachment 1 — Summary of
Laboratory Analysis.
6. An updated drainage area map is attached that identifies the new drainage areas and outfall
locations post final grading — Figure 1 — Stormwater Drainage Map — Final Site Grading.
Should you have any questions or need additional information please feel free to contact Joyce
Dishmon at 336-623-0238 [e-mail].
