Part II Page 11 of 14 SECTION E. DEFINITION 1. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Environmental Management. 2. DEM or Division Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Natural Resources and Community Development. 3. EMC:_ Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. 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 sample and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges samples 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 samples 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. 6 Part II Page 12 of 14 d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sample 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. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges samples 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 T of the permit. 7 R Part II Page 13 of 14 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 1 of the permit. e. The "daily minimum concentration" (for dissolved oxygen only) is the minimum allowable amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge. It is identified as "Daily Minimum" under ftOther Limits" in Part III of the permit. 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. Types of Samples a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, a sample continuously collected proportionally to flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time intervals. If a composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the following requirements apply. The intervals between influent grab samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than hourly except where the detention time of the wastewater in the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which case, the interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number of hours than the detention time in number of days; provided, however, in no case may the time between effluent grab samples be greater than six hours nor the number of grab samples less than four during any discharge period of 24 hours or less. 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. Part II Page 14 of 14 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. 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. Revised 6/89 PART III OTHER REQUIREMENTS A.

Zelnak Post Office Box 30013 Raleigh, North Carolina 27622 Subject: NPDES Permit No. NC 0060976 Martin Marietta Rocky River Quarry Cabarrus County, NC Dear Mr. Zelnak: Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0060976 was issued on February 6, 1990 for the discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular importance is Page 4. Page 4 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) must not exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed "Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the reporting forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the form, please contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form. It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required. The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III) set forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s). The conditions include special reporting 919 North Main Street, Mooresville, N.C. 28115 • Telephone 704-663-1699 • FAX 704-663-6040 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Mr. Stephen P. Zelnak Page Two February 13, 1990 requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you are operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil penalty of up to $10,000 per violation plus criminal penalties may be assessed for such violations.

River Basin and Sub -Basin No.: 03-07-12 Part II - DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED/EXISTING TREATMENT FACILITIES 1. Existing Facilities: Not applicable 2. Proposed Modifications: The applicant proposes to construct a granite quarry. Rainfall and groundwater which collect in the quarry pit will be pumped periodically into an existing pond which will be used to settle any suspended matter. Effluent from the pond will overflow into Anderson Creek. Patt III - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Performance Evaluation: The collected rainfall and groundwater should be relatively free of any appreciable concentration of pollutants (solids) except possibly during the initial phase of removing the overburden material from the underlying rock strata. Even at worst, it appears that the proposed system should be adequate for the proposed activity. 2. Recommendations and/or Special Conditions: It is recommended that an NPDES Permit be issued as requested. r 'c� �� S ,. � �� � �-.\ sty , , .. \S ., .. _v.,� __ "`\• t o 1 �4� F n 7. -47 �N\�� 03 _ it � �r � �� � • - ��1 r _ ,. - � � ` oJ/t- `7 e.—1 v}( • l � 1 y .Pi'er Mills 1 f tr NX CC I 32 X. 681 $37 35' 538 539 (MIDLAND) 540 541 4854 Il NE SCALE 1:24000 * 1 MILE =- �- MN' 1000 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 ._- _ %000 FEET GN EF r-M=4--- S' 1 5 0 1 KILOMETER 3• NILS 0•1s CONTOUR INTERVAL 10 FEET 4 MILS DATUM IS MEAN SEA LEVEL lNi4NETfG NORTH �. . it .,a ST Tr a, North Carolina Department of Natural p Resources &Community Development James B.
