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. 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. 6. 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 I of the permit. 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 "Other Limits" in Part III of the permit. 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. 8. 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. Requirements for Control of Pollutants Attributable to Industrial Users. 1. Effluent limitations are listed in Part I of this permit. Other pollutants attributable to inputs from major contributing industries using the municipal system may be present in the permittee's discharge.

Such operator must hold a certification of the grade equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the wastewater treatment facilities. F. Groundwater Monitoring The permittee shall, upon written notice from the Director of the Division of Environmental Management, conduct groundwater monitoring as may be required to determine the compliance of this NPDES permitted facility with the current groundwater standards. G. Limitations Reopener This permit shall be modified or alternatively, revoked and reissued, to comply with any applicable effluent guideline or water quality standard issued or approved under Section 302(b)(2)(c), and (d), 304(b)(2), and 307(a)(2) of the Clean Water Act, if the effluent guideline or water quality standard so issued or approved: 1. contains different conditions or is otherwise more stringent than any effluent limitation in the permit; or 2. controls any pollutant not limited in the permit. This permit as modified or reissued under this paragraph shall also contain any other requirements in the Act then applicable. H. Toxicity Reopener This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to incorporate toxicity limitations and/or monitoring requirements in the event toxicity testing or other studies conducted on the effluent or receiving stream indicate that detrimental effects may be expected in the receiving stream as a result of this discharge. 1. Chronic Toxicity Testing Requirement The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests, using test procedures outlined in: 1) . 'The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised *February 1987) or subsequent version. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 39% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document) . The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from issuance of this permit during the months of January, April, July, and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM from AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Technical Services Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management P.O. Box 27687 Raleigh, N.C. 2761.1 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental. Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be reopened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting (within 30 days of initial monitoring event) . Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. J. The permittee shall conduct a test for priority pollutants annually at the effluent from the treatment plant. The discharge shall be evaluated as follows: 1) A pollutant analysis of the effluent must be completed annually using EPA approved methods for the following analytic fractions: (a) purgeables (i.e. , volatile organic compounds); (b) acid extractables; (c) base/neutral extractables; (d) organochlorine pesticides and PCB's (e) herbicides; and (f) metals and other inorganics. The Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring (APAM) Requirement Reporting Form A and accompanying memo,to be provided to all dischargers affected by this monitoring requirement, describes the sampling and analysis requirements and lists chemicals to be included in the pollutant analysis. This monitoring requirement is to be referred to as the "Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring requirement " (APAM) . 2) Other significant levels of synthetic organic chemicals must be identified and approximately quantified. For the purpose of implementing this requirement, the largest 10 GC/MS peaks in purgeable, base/neutral extractable, and acid extractable fractions (or fewer than 10, if less than 10 unidentified peaks) occur for chemicals other than those specified on the APA Requirement Reporting Form A should be identified and approximately quantified as stated in the APAM Reporting Form A instructions. This part (item 2) of the APAM requirement is to be referred to as the "10 significant peaks rule". PART IV ANNUAL ADMINISTERING AND COMPLIANCE FEE REQUIREMENTS A. The permittee must pay the annual administering and compliance fee within 30 (thirty) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee in a timely manner in accordance with 15 NCAC 2H .0105(b)(4) may cause this Division to initiate action to revoke the permit. ;r _, e tsr�rft: " -- i,.

Other: N/A PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS A review of the past monthly self-monitoring reports, from March, 1988 through February, 1989, indicates that this facility is in compliance with Permit effluent limitations. However, recent Aquatic Toxicity evaluation tests conducted by the Division of Environmental Management in January, 1989 indicated that effluent generated from this facility has caused toxic responses to the test organism Ceriodaphnia sp. in that the reproduction of the test species was inhibited. This would imply that the subject facility has not been able to adequately treat the wasteflow from industries, and/or the Industrial Pretreatment Program has not been properly implemented. It is advisable that the Permittee identify and resolve the problem(s) accordingly. It is recommended that the Permit be renewed as requested by the applicant. tf.

Definitions a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one- month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period. b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period. c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. M Part I Permit No. NC e. 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 equiva- lent 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 ). f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following: (1 ) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited in proportion to flow. (2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional to the flow. (3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow. g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge. 4. Test Procedures Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations published pursuant to N. C. G.

Other information may be needed regarding new industrial discharges and this will be requested from the permittee after the permitting agency has received notice of the new industrial discharge. A major contributing industry is one that: (1 ) has a flow of 50,000 gallons or more per average work day; (b) has a flow greater than five percent of the flow carried by the municipal system receiving the waste; (c) has in its waste a toxic pollutant in toxic amounts as defined in standards issued under Section 307(a) of the Act; (d) has significant impact either singly or in combination with other contributing industries, on the treatment works or the quality of its effluent. Any change in the definition of a major contributing industry as a result of promulgations in response to Section 307 of the Act shall become a part of this Permit. M 12 PART III Permit No. NC PART III OTHER REQUIREMENTS A. Requirements for Effluent Limitations on Pollutants Attributable to Industrial Users 1. Effluent limitations from this discharger are listed in Part I of this permit. It is apparent that other pollutants attributable to inputs from major contributing industries using the municipal system may also be present in the permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality standards. 2. Under no circumstances shall the permittee allow introduction of the following wastes into the waste treatment system: a. Wastes which create a fire or explosion hazard in the treatment works. b. Wastes which will cause corrosive structural damage to treatment works. c. Solid or viscous substances in amounts which cause obstructions to the flow in sewers or interference with the proper operation of the treatment works. d. Wastewaters at a flow rate and/or pollutant discharge rate which is excessive over relatively short time periods so as to cause a loss of treatment efficiency. e. Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the treatment works resulting in interference but in no case heat in such quaotitieso that the temperature at the treatment works influent exceeds 40 C (104 F) unless the works are designed to accomodate such heat. (After August 25, 1981: 3. With regard to the effluent requirements listed in Part I of this permit, it may be necessary for the permittee to supplement the requirements of the Federal Pretreatment Standards (40 CFR, Part 403) to ensure compliance by the permittee with all applicable effluent limitations. Such actions by the permittee may be necessary regarding some or all of the major contri- buting industries discharging to the municipal system. The permittee shall require each major contributing industry subject to pre-treatment standards or any other applicable requirements promulgated pursuant to Section 307 of the Act to submit to the permittee periodic notice (at intervals not to exceed 9 months) regarding specific actions taken to achieve full compliance with the requirements of Section 307. Starting on the permittee shall submit semi-annually to the permit issuing authority a report summarizing the progress of all known major contributing industries subject to the requirements of Section 307 towards full compliance with such requirements. Such report shall include at least the following information: M 13 PART III Permit No. NC a. A narrative summary of actions taken by the permittee to ensure that all major contributing industries comply with the requirements of Section 307. b. The number of major contributing industries using the treatment works, divided into SIC group categories. c. The number of major contributing industries in full compliance with the requirements of Section 307, or not subject to these requirements (e.g. , discharge only compatible pollutants). d. A list identifying by name those major contributing industries presently in violation of the requirements of Section 307. 4. Immediately upon issuance of this permit, the permittee shall establish and implement a procedure to obtain from all major contributing indus- tries specific information on the quality and quantity of effluents intro- duced by such industrial users. The following information shall be reported to the permitting agency on a quarterly basis beginning ; quarterly reports reflecting no change from the previous quarter may simply relate this fact, without submitting repetitive data. a. Section IV, Standard Form A shall be completed and submitted for each major contributing industry. b. Information on the municipal facility as a whole is to be reported on the monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM - No. MR 1 .0, 1 .1 , 1 .2, and 1 .3). Once the specific nature of industrial contributions has been identified, data collection and reporting requirements may be levied for other parameters in addition to those included on Form (DEM No. 1 .0, 1 .1 , 1 .2, and 1 .3). 5. Based on the information regarding industrial inputs reported by the permittee pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the permittee will be notified by the permitting authority of the availability of industrial effluent guidelines on which to calculate allowable inputs of incompatible pollutants based on BPT for each industry group. Copies of guidelines will be provided as appropriate. Not later than 120 days following receipt of this information, the permittee shall submit to the permitting authority calculations reflecting allowable inputs from each major con- tributing industry. The permittee shall also require all such major contributing industries to implement necessary pre-treatment requirements (as provided for in 40 CFR, Part 403 ), providing the permitting authority with notifications of specific actions taken in this regard. At that time, the permit may be amended to reflect the municipal facility's effluent requirements for incompatible pollutants. M 14 Permit No. NCoo2o591 B.

Definitions a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one- month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-month period. b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a one-week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one-week period. c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. M5 Part I Permit No. NC e. 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 equiva- lent 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 ). f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following: (1 ) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited in proportion to flow. (2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional to the flow. (3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow. g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge. 4.

Act shall become a part of this Permit. s • PART III Page of Permit No. NC PART III OTHER REQUIREMENTS Requirements for Effluent. Limitations on Pollutants Attributable to Industrial Users 1. Effluent limitations from this discharger are listed in Part I of this permit. It is apparent that other pollutants attributable to inputs from major contributing industries using the municipal system may also be present in the permittee's discharge. At such time as sufficient information becomes available to establish limitations for such pollutants, this permit may be revised to specify effluent limitations for any or all of such other pollutants in accordance with best practicable technology or water quality standards. 2. Under no circumstances shall the permittee allow introduction of the following wastes into the waste treatment system: a. Wastes which create a fire or explosion hazard in the treatment works. b. Wastes which will cause corrosive structural damage to treatment works. c. Solid or viscous substances in amounts which cause obstructions to the flow in sewers or interference with the proper operation of the treatment works. d. Wastewaters at a flow rate and/or pollutant discharge rate which is excessive over relatively short time periods so as to cause a loss of treatment efficiency. e. Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the treatment works resulting in interference but in no case heat in such quantities 0 0 that the temperature at the treatment works influent exceeds 40 C (104 F) unless the works are designed to accomodate such heat. (After August 25, 1981) 3. With regard to the effluent requirements listed in Part I of this permit, it may be necessary for the permittee to supplement the requirements of the Federal Pretreatment Standards (40 CFR, Part 403) to ensure compliance by the permittee with all applicable effluent limitations. Such actions by the permittee may be necessary regarding some or all of the major contri- buting industries discharging to the municipal system. The permittee shall require each major contributing industry subject to pre-treatment standards or any other applicable requirements promulgated pursuant to Section 307 of the Act to submit to the permittee periodic notice (at intervals not to exceed 9 months) regarding specific actions taken to achieve full compliance with the requirements of Section 307. Starting on the permittee shall submit semi-annually to the permit issuing authority a report summarizing the progress of all known major contributing industries subject to the requirements of Section 307 towards full compliance with such requirements. Such report shall include at least the following information: • • PART III Page of Permit No. NC a. A narrative summary of actions taken by the permittee to ensure that all major contributing industries comply with the requirements of Section 307. b. The number of major contributing industries using the treatment works, divided into SIC group categories. c. The number of major contributing industries in full compliance with the requirements of Section 307, or not subject to these requirements (e.g. , discharge only compatible pollutants). d. A list identifying by name those major contributing industries presently in violation of the requirements of Section 307. 4. Immediately upon issuance of this permit, the permittee shall establish and implement a procedure to obtain from all major contributing indus- tries specific information on the quality and quantity of effluents intro- duced by such industrial users. The following information shall be reported to the permitting agency on a quarterly basis beginning ; quarterly reports reflecting no change from the previous quarter may simply relate this fact, without submitting repetitive data. a. Section IV, Standard Form A shall be completed and submitted for each major contributing industry. b. Information on the municipal facility as a whole is to be reported on the monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM - No. MR 1 .0, 1 .1 , 1 .2, and 1 .3). Once the specific nature of industrial contributions has been identified, data collection and reporting requirements may be levied for other parameters in addition to those included on Form (DEM No. 1 .0, 1 .1 , 1 .2, and 1 .3). 5. Based on the information regarding industrial inputs reported by the permittee pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the permittee will be notified by the permitting authority of the availability of industrial effluent guidelines. on which to calculate allowable inputs of incompatible pollutants based on BPT for each industry group. Copies of guidelines will be provided as appropriate. Not later than 120 days following receipt of this information, the permittee shall submit to the permitting authority calculations reflecting allowable inputs from each major con- tributing industry. The permittee shall also require all such major contributing industries to implement necessary pre-treatment requirements (as provided for in 40 CFR, Part 403 ), providing the permitting authority with notifications of specific actions taken in this regard. At that time, the permit may be amended to reflect the municipal facility's effluent 'requirements for incompatible pollutants. • • PART III Permit No. NC B.
