Upstream monitoring shall be at the Permittee's Cape Fear River Water Intake; downstream shall be at the boat ramp approximately 4500 feet downstream at Prospect Hall Landing. As a participant in the Middle Cape Fear River Basin Association, the instream monitoring requirements for conventional parameters (DO, temperature, and conductivity) as stated above are waived. Should your membership in the agreement be terminated, you shall notify the Division immediately and the instream monitoring requirements specified in your permit shall be reinstated. Influent — influent to the Old Outfall 002 Wastewater Treatment System. Note the Outfall 003 concentration limitations do not apply to the influent. Influent sampling is required to calculate the HFPO-DA and PFMOAA percent removal. Effluent — Outfall 003 (effluent from the Old Outfall 002 Wastewater Treatment System). 2. The temperature of the effluent shall be such as not to cause an increase in the temperature of the receiving stream of more than 2.8°C and in no case cause the ambient water temperature to exceed 32°C. 3. The requirement for 99% removal at the treatment system for PMPA shall not become effective until Jan. 31, 2021. The monitoring and reporting requirements for PMPA are effective immediately. 4. The Permittee shall remove indicator parameters HFPO-DA, PFMOAA, and PMPA at an efficiency of 99% in order to reduce PFAS loading to the Cape Fear River. The effluent limits listed above are Technology Based Effluent Limits ("TBELs") calculated to ensure a minimum of 99% removal efficiency. In addition to complying with these effluent limits the Permittee must demonstrate compliance with the 99% removal efficiency requirement by calculating monthly removal efficiency for HFPO-DA, PFMOAA, and PMPA pursuant to condition A. (6.). The Permittee may request revision of the 99% removal efficiency requirement upon a demonstration that influent concentrations of PFAS have been reduced to such a level that 99% removal Page 4 of 12 Permit NCO089915 is no longer technically feasible. However, notwithstanding any such revision, Chemours shall continue to operate the Treatment System at optimal efficiency. 5. Chronic Toxicity (Ceriodaphnia) P/F @ 12.5%; quarterly during February, May, August, November; see condition A. (2.) of this permit. 6. Sufficiently sensitive test methods shall be used to analyze for Silver. The Division shall consider all effluent Silver values reported below the PQL to be in compliance with the Monthly Average Silver limit. As of the effective date of this permit, DWR recommends a target PQL of 1.0 µg/L for Silver. 7. After 12 months of sampling the facility can apply for a reduction in sampling if all the sampling results demonstrate concentrations below detection levels. The facility shall be employing the sufficiently sensitive test methods. 8. The permittee shall sample instream hardness upstream of the facility's discharge. The sample shall be representative of the hardness in the stream. If the permittee is a member of the Monitoring Coalition Program, sampling for instream hardness may be waived as long as the Monitoring Coalition agrees to sample hardness at the nearest upstream location, at a minimum frequency of quarterly, and the permittee has obtained approval from DWR -NPDES Permitting Unit that the upstream station being monitored by the coalition is representative of the receiving stream for this discharge. The permittee is responsible for submitting instream hardness test results with its DMRs as results are received from the coalition. If coalition membership is cancelled or the Monitoring Coalition terminates instream hardness sampling at the approved station, the permittee will immediately notify the Division and resume sampling for instream hardness, upstream of its discharge, as required in Section A. (1.). THERE SHALL BE NO DISCHARGE OF FLOATING SOLIDS OR VISIBLE FOAM IN OTHER THAN TRACE AMOUNTS. The facility shall develop a Dam (collection system) Operation and Maintenance Plan (Plan) to ensure maximum dry weather flow (— 610 gpm) in the channel is consistently captured and treated. Similar efforts shall be applied at the sumps/dams or other devices that will be used to capture water from the seeps. The Plan shall be provided to the DEQ no later than October 18, 2020 for review and approval. Upon approval, the Plan becomes an integral part of the permit. The facility shall complete and submit EPA Form 2C for this Outfall no later than March 30, 2021. From time -to -time the Middle Cape Fear River has experienced flooding conditions which are documented to cause a significant increase in water levels below Lock and Dam 93, consistent with the location of proposed Outfall 003. During these events a backwater condition propagates upstream in the "Old Outfall 002 Stream". Historical observation indicates that the Old Outfall 002 Stream levels can rise significantly (consistent with the flooded Cape Fear River levels) and would be expected, at times, to be equal to or significantly greater than the invert elevation of the treatment system intake dam and associated pumping system. During these flooded backwater conditions elevated sediment load and reduced flow velocity gradients are expected to cause significant sediment deposition within the collection dam and pumping structure. The sediment load may cause failure of the pumping and treatment system during the flooded backwater condition. Requirement for treatment shall be suspended during these force majeure flooding events and be allowed 48 hours after the backwater stream level falls below the invert of the intake collection dam to safely maintain the influent collection structure and re- initiate collection and treatment. The triggering Cape Fear River flood elevations; event documentation and notification requirements; and procedure for treatment cessation and safe restart shall be included in the approved Dam Operation and Maintenance Plan. Whenever treatment is suspended under this condition, the permittee shall document the flooding in the DMR for that month including the time of flooding above the intake invert, when the water recedes below the intake invert, and time that treatment resumes. Page 5 of 12 Permit NCO089915 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT P/F (QUARTERLY) — OUTFALL 003 [ 15A NCAC 02B.0200] The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 12.5%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," (Revised December 2010, or subsequent versions) or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised December 2010, or subsequent versions). The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August, and November. These months signify the first month of each three-month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and 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 II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -December 2010, or subsequent versions). All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered electronically using the Division's eDMR system for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP313 for the pass/fail results and THP313 for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWR Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: North Carolina Division of Water Resources Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1621 Or, results can be sent to the email, ATForms.ATBgncdenr.gov. Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water Sciences Section 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 Water Sciences Section 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. Assessment of toxicity compliance is based on the toxicity testing quarter, which is the three-month time interval that begins on the first day of the month in which toxicity testing is required by this permit and continues until the final day of the third month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. Page 6 of 12 Permit NCO089915 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. A. (3.) RE -OPENER CONDITION [NCGS 143-215.3 (a) (2) and NCGS 143-215.66] This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to incorporate additional limitations and monitoring requirements in the event toxicity testing or other studies indicate that detrimental effects may be expected as a result of this discharge. Additionally, and if appropriate, after 3 years of treatment system operation the division will evaluate effluent limits and adjust the limits if the analysis indicates an improved performance. A. (4.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF MONITORING REPORTS [G. S. 143-215.1(b)] Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and program reports. The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted and became effective on December 21, 2015. NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits): • Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements • Section D. (2.) • Section D. (6.) • Section E. (5.) Reporting Records Retention Monitoring Reports 1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.)

CALCULATION OF HFPO-DA, PFMOAA, & PMPA REMOVAL/LOADS a. The Permittee shall calculate monthly removal efficiency for HFPO-DA, PFMOAA and PMPA as follows: Removal = Influent -Effluent Influent Where: Influent = monthly average influent concentration Effluent = monthly average effluent concentration b. The Permittee shall calculate monthly load for HFPO-DA, PFMOAA, and PMPA as follows: Monthly C Load = C x TMF x 8.34 Where: C = monthly average concentration for each compound (mg/L) TMF = Total Monthly Flow of wastewater discharged during the month (MG/month) 8.34 = conversion factor from (mg/L x MG) to pounds Annual C Load = Sum of the 12 Monthly Loads for each compound for the calendar year c. The Permittee shall report monthly HFPO-DA, PFMOAA, and PMPA results [% removal (ng/L), and Loading (pounds/month)] in the discharge monitoring report for each month and shall report each calendar year's Annual Load (pounds/year) with the December report for that year. Percent removal shall be listed in the comment section of the eDMR since it has no parameter code. The requirement for 99% removal at the treatment system for PMPA shall not become effective until Jan. 31, 2021. In addition, calculations shall be submitted electronically with all PFAS data to NPDES Permitting via email at svc_dec-npdes-ec o,ncdenr.gov, with the Facility permit number and name in the Subject heading. This percent removal will be reported monthly with Chemours electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) data. If the influent HFPO-DA or PFMOAA concentrations to the water treatment system are equal to or less than 200 ng/L and 500 ng/L, respectively, then the water treatment system effluent concentrations of less than the current reporting limits (2 ng/L and 5 ng/L, respectively) shall be considered as achieving 99% removal.
