(3.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 78%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised-February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed 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. 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-February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised- February 1998)or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the'following address: Attention: NC DENR/DWQ/Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental 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 Environmental 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. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re-opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. Part 1, Section A Page 3 of 4 Part I, Section A Permit NC0005 177 If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation and reported data submitted on the DMR and all AT Forms. 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.

(1.)FINAL LIMITATIONS AND CONTROLS During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration,the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater from Outfall 004. Such discharges shall be controlled, limited and monitored as specified below: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN The permittee shall develop and continue to update a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP), herein after referred to as the Plan. The Plan shall be considered public information and shall include, at a minimum,the following items: 1. Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following: (a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted equivalent map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation routes and surface waters, the name of the receiving water(s) to which the stormwater outfall(s) discharges, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate storm sewer system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters, and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify whether each receiving water is impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired waters) or is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been established, and what the parameter(s) of concern are. (b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. A narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall. (c) A site map drawn to scale (including a distance legend) showing: the site property boundary, the stormwater discharge outfalls, all on-site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), site topography, all drainage features and structures, drainage areas for each outfall, direction of flow in each drainage area, industrial activities occurring in each drainage area, buildings, existing BMPs, and impervious surfaces. The site map must indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the three (3)previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. (e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the requirements found in Part II, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 11. The • Part 1, Section B Page 1 of 12 ' Part I, Section B Permit NC0005177 permittee shall re-certify annually that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. 2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall incorporate the following: (a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substance in order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by any material. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. (c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually. 3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or the team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and dated by each individual acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A responsible person shall be on-site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, an oil Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan • (SPCC) may be a component of the SPRP, but may not be sufficient to completely address the Part 1, Section B Page 2of12 Part I, Section B Permit NC0005 177 , stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP. 4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative maintenance and good housekeeping program shall be developed. The program shall list all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on-site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including material storage areas, material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), all drainage features and structures, and existing structural BMPs. The program shall establish schedules of inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping activities of stormwater control systems, as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and facility systems that present a potential for stormwater exposure or stormwater pollution. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Timely compliance with the established schedules for inspections, maintenance, and housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained in the SPPP. 5. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations that have the potential 'to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained. 6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented and position assignments provided. 7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include written re-certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. Each annual update shall include a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the BMPs listed in the BMP Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing(in accordance with Part II, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 11)to the Director that the changes have been made. 8. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule,once during the first half of the year(January to June), and once during the second half (July to December), with at least 60 days separating inspection dates (unless performed more Part 1, Section B Page3of12 Part I, Section B Permit NC0005177 frequently than semi-annually). These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring required in Part 1, Section B. (2.). 9. Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Plan. Implementation of the Plan shall include documentation of all monitoring, measurements, inspections, maintenance activities, and training provided to employees, including the log of the sampling data and of actions taken to implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall be kept on-site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or the Director's authorized representative immediately upon request. B. (2.)MINIMUM MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 1. Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. All samples shall be collected from a discharge resulting from a representative storm event. The required monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall. The time between this storm event and the previous storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches must be at least 72 hours. A single storm event may have a period of no precipitation of up to 10 hours. For example, if it rains but stops before producing any collectable discharge, a sample may be collected if the next rain producing a discharge begins within 10 hours. 2. If the stormwater is controlled by a detention pond, and that pond discharges only in response to a storm event exceeding a 25-year, 24-hour storm, the pond shall be considered a non- discharging stormwater control system and not subject to NPDES requirements, unless the discharge causes a violation of water quality standards. 3.

Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling results. 2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedance. 3. Identify potential and select the specific: source controls,operational controls,or physical improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, or to bring concentrations within the benchmark range. 4. Implement the selected actions within two months of the inspection. 5. Record each instance of a Tier One response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Include the date and value of the benchmark exceedance,the inspection date,the personnel conducting the inspection,the selected actions, and the date the selected actions were implemented. Part 1, Section B Page 7 of 12 Part I, Section B Permit NC0005177 Tier Two If: During the term of this permit,the first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall; Then: The permittee shall: 1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative)monitoring shall continue until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within the benchmark range. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period,the permittee is required to record "No Flow on a monthly monitoring report to comply with reporting requirements. 4. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. During the term of this permit, if the valid sampling results required for the permit monitoring periods exceed the benchmark value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on four occasions, the permittee shall notify the DWQ Regional Office Supervisor in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth analytical results. DWQ may but is not limited to: • require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; • require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures; or • require that the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for the No Exposure Exclusion. 6. If a facility is required to sample multiple stormwater discharge locations, the permittee may petition the Director to sample at a reduced number of outfalls. These outfalls would be granted "Representative Outfall Status" (ROS). DWQ may grant Representative Outfall Status if discharges from a single outfall are representative of discharges from multiple outfalls. Approved ROS will reduce the number of outfalls where analytical sampling requirements apply. Qualitative observations shall be recorded for all outfall locations. 7. This site discharges to impaired waters experiencing problems with biological integrity (North Second Creek) and excessive nutrient loading (High Rock Lake watershed). If a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is approved for this segment of North Second Creek or High Rock Lake,the permittee may be required to monitor for the pollutant(s)of concern in the future and submit results to the Division of Water Quality. The Division will consider the monitoring results in determining whether additional BMPs are needed to control the pollutant(s) of concern to the maximum extent practicable. If additional BMPs are needed to achieve the required level of control, the permittee will be required to (1) develop a strategy for implementing appropriate BMPs, and (2) submit a timetable for incorporation of those BMPs into the permitted Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Part 1, Section B Page 84of 12 Part I, Section B Permit NC0005 177 8. Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified in Table 5, during the analytical monitoring event. [If analytical monitoring is not required, the permittee still must conduct semi- annual qualitative monitoring.] Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. 9.

Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary,the time interval between grab samples,etc.) on a case-by-case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous:a single,continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection,or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system,or (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval.

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 are Pages 4 and 5. Pages 4 and 5 set forth the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for your discharge. Your discharge 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 reporting forms furnished or approved by this Agency. For new permits/facilities,the Division may supply an initial small stock of these forms; however, if you fail to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as possible. The forms, including directions for their completion, and other important information are also available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/documents.html. It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required. Please be advised that an annual fee may be required for your facility; if so,you will receive a statement from our Raleigh Office., It is imperative that the fee be paid in a timely manner so as to prevent enforcement action or possible revocation of your permit. The remaining parts of the Permit set forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s). The NgN"orthCaaturrafyo na tat ffia N.C.Division of Water Quality,Mooresville Regional Office,610 E.Center Ave.Suite 301,Mooresville NC 28115 (704)663-1699 Customer Service 1-877-623-6748 conditions include special reporting 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. To maintain compliance with discharge limitations,proper operation and maintenance of a wastewater treatment facility and the development of a process control program are essential. For those facilities having chlorine tablet disinfection, please be advised that chlorine tablets approved for wastewater treatment use must be used; swimming pool tablets are not approved. Also, be advised that DWQ staff need to have access to the facility's discharge point into the receiving stream; please maintain a path along the outfall line to facilitate that access. 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 $25,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties) may be assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that you are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A Special Order by Consent (SOC) may be necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance. As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed. Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of your Permit. This date is set forth on Page 1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not automatically transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that the Division of Water Quality rescind the Permit or request that DWQ reissue the Permit to another party, if necessary. As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to providing any assistance. Sincerely, bfrf? D.

Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is 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 May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). The permit authorizes FMC Lithium Corporation to discharge up to 0.615 MGD of treated wastewater, stormwater, boiler blowdown and cooling water from the FMC Corporation WWTP to an unnamed tributary to Abernethy Creek, a class C water in the Catawba River Basin. The permit includes discharge limitations /or monitoring for flow,biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), dissolved oxygen, NH3, chloride, magnesium, chronic toxicity and other parameters. The following modifications from the February 15, 2006 draft permit will remain in the final permit: Outfall 001 • The results of the priority pollutant analysis submitted by your facility detected the presence of magnesium. The concentration reported was evaluated in the reasonable potential analysis and was determined to exceed the allowable concentration for protection of water quality (using EPA's national water quality criteria). Based on this data, quarterly monitoring for magnesium is recommended to be included in the permit. • Deletion of quarterly monitoring for copper and zinc. A review of data indicated that there was no reasonable potential for the parameters to exceed the water quality action level standard. No"ehcaroli atura/!

Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. Act or"the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act,also known as the Clean Water Act,as amended,33 USC 1251,et seq. Annual Average The arithmetic mean of all "daily'discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system,which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Day 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. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case-by-case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous:a single,continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24.hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection,or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system,or (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time intervaL This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director.

Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention tune of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass,the "daily discharge"is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period.

Version 6.'20l2003 SOC PRIORITY PROJECT: No To: Permits and Engineering Unit Water Quality Section Attention: Jackie Nowell Date: January 19, 2006 NPDES STAFF REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS County: Gaston NPDES Permit No.: NC0005177 MRO No.: 05-45 PART I - GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Facility and address: FMC Corporation, Lithium Division 1115 Bessemer City-Kings Mountain Highway Post Office Box 795 Bessemer City,N.C. 28016 2. Date of investigation: December 5 , 2005 3. Report prepared by: Michael L. Parker, Environmental Engineer II 4. Person contacted and telephone number: Kimberly Weathers, (704) 868-5897 5. Directions to site: The Lithium plant is located on the south(left) side of Hwy. 161 0.1 mile west of the jct. of Hwy. 161 and SR 1402,just west of Bessemer City. 6. Discharge point(s), list for all discharge points: - Latitude: 35° 15' 44" Longitude: 81° 17' 57" Attach a USGS Map Extract and indicate treatment plant site and discharge point on map. USGS Quad No.: F 13 SE 7. Site size and expansion area consistent with application: Yes. Ample area exists for the construction of additional WWT facilities, if necessary. 8. Topography(relationship to flood plain included): The site encompasses several hundred acres with varying topography(3-10% slopes). The main WWT pond is located in a surface drainage feature, however, it appears to be protected from flooding. 9. Location of nearest dwelling: Approx. 1000± feet from the WWTP site. Page Two 10. Receiving stream or affected surface waters: U. T. to Abernathy Creek a. Classification: C b. River basin and subbasin no.: Catawba 030837 c. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstream uses: Flow observed in the receiving stream at the point of discharge. Downstream uses are primarily agriculture. No other dischargers are known for a reasonable distance downstream. PART II- DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS Outfall 001 Outfall 004 1. a. Volume of wastewater: 0.615 MGD Intermittent b. What is the current permitted capacity: 0.615 MGD (outfall 001) c. Actual treatment capacity of current facility(current design capacity): 0.615 MGD d. Date(s) and construction activities allowed by previous ATCs issued in the previous two years: There have been no ATCs issued in the past two (2)years. e. Description of existing or substantially constructed WWT facilities: The existing WWT facilities at outfall 001 consist of two (2) Reverse Osmosis treatment units followed by a hydrogen peroxide feed for chlorine neutralization,pH adjustment (H2SO4 acid), and an 18 acre industrial WWT lagoon with a flow meter with totalizer. Wastewater treated by these treatment processes include discharges of lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, and a discharge from a lithium hypochlorite particulate air scrubber. There is also wastewater entering this outfall from floor area sumps, boiler blowdown, wet particulate air scrubbers, and stormwater. There is also a small, earthen pond(referred to as the R&D pond in the renewal application)that receives condensate, cooling tower overflow, and stormwater. The water is typically recycled back into the plant, however, if an overflow does occur, the discharge from this pond will eventually travel through a series of small, earthen settling ponds prior to reaching the receiving stream and discharging at outfall 004. f. Description of proposed WWT facilities: There are no WWT facilities proposed at this time. g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: This facility has had a consistent compliance record with respect to toxicity testing. 2. ' Residual handling and utilization/disposal scheme: As the result of changes in the manufacturing process, there are essentially no residuals generated at this time. Previously, residuals were removed from the main treatment pond and stockpiled on-site. These solids were used throughout the site to fill uneven terrain and stabilize roads. Page Three 3. Treatment plant classification: Class II (no change from previous rating). 4. SIC Code(s): 2819, 2869 Wastewater Code(s): 32, 31, 02 5. MTU Code(s): 50000 PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION 1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grant Funds or are any public monies involved(municipals only)?No. Public monies were not used in the construction of this facility. 2. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity) requests: None at this time. 3. Important SOC/JOC or Compliance Schedule dates: This facility is neither under an SOC nor is one being considered at this time. 4. Alternative analysis evaluation: There are no known on-site or off-site alternatives that are currently available which would eliminate the need to discharge. PART IV- EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The permittee, FMC Corporation, Lithium Division (FMC), requests renewal of the subject Permit. There have been no changes at this facility since the permit was last renewed nor are any proposed in this renewal. Pending receipt and approval of the yet-to-be-issued draft permit, it is recommended that the Permit be renewed as requested. - 7(:da.,/c ,2 7 /',:z-2,- / , 74, Signature of Report Prep er ate ,,,, -,,F.,,r2c,'6 Water Quality Regional Supervisor Date h:\dsr\dsr05\lithium.sr , \J OF W A T�9 /t � Michael F.Easley,Governor 0 QC- O William G.Ross Jr.,Secretary `� Noah Carol-a n 4EnyaCotttnentc,and Natural Resources A dd{Vr``iNKVr,�rt n�� AND NATI toN.REs uRegio nek P.E.Director MOORESW.

Therefore, no Sludge Management Plan is required. 3lz ©5 oly Weathers Date f onmental Manager FMC Corporation—Lithium Division SOC PRIORITY PROJECT: No To: Permits and Engineering Unit Water Quality Section Attention: Mike Myers Date: August 21, 2001 NPDES STAFF REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS County: Gaston NPDES Permit No.: NC0005177 MRO No.: 01-94 PART I -GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Facility and address: FMC Corporation, Lithium Division Highway 161 Post Office Box 795 Bessemer City,N.C. 28016 2. Date of investigation: August 21, 2001 3. Report prepared by: Michael L. Parker, Environmental Engineer II 4. Person contacted and telephone number: Kimberly Weathers, (704) 868-5897 5. Directions to site: The Lithium plant is located on the south(left) side of Hwy. 161 . 0.1 mile west of the jct. of Hwy. 161 and SR 1402,just west of Bessemer City. � 5 � `7 c S I, 6. Discharge point(s), List for all discharge Points: - Latitude: 35° 15' 44" Longitude: 81° 17' 57" Attach a USGS Map Extract and indicate treatment plant site and discharge point on map. USGS Quad No.: F 13 SE 7. Site size and expansion area consistent with application: Yes. Ample area exists for the construction of additional WWT facilities, if necessary. 8. Topography (relationship to flood plain included): The site encompasses several hundred acres with varying topography (3-10%slopes). The main WWT pond is located in a surface drainage feature, however, it appears to be protected from flooding. 9. Location of nearest dwelling: Approx. 1000± feet from the WWTP site. Page Two 10. Receiving stream or affected surface waters: U. T. to Abernathy Creek a. Classification: C b. River Basin and Subbasin No.: Catawba 030837 c. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstream uses: Flow observed in the receiving stream at the point of discharge. Downstream uses are primarily agriculture. No other dischargers are known for a reasonable distance downstream. PART II -DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS Outfall 001 Outfall 004 1. a. Volume of wastewater: 0.615 MGD Intermittent b. What is the current permitted capacity: 0.615 MGD (outfall 001) c. Actual treatment capacity of current facility (current design capacity): 0.615 MGD d. Date(s) and construction activities allowed by previous ATCs issued in the previous two years: There have been no ATCs issued in the past two (2)years. e. Description of existing or substantially constructed WWT facilities: The existing WWT facilities at outfall 001 consist of two (2) Reverse Osmosis treatment units followed by a hydrogen peroxide feed for chlorine neutralization, pH adjustment (H2SO4 acid), and an 18 acre industrial WWT lagoon with a flow meter with totalizer. Wastewater treated by these treatment processes include discharges of lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, and a discharge from a lithium hypochlorite particulate air scrubber. There is also wastewater entering this outfall from floor area sumps, boiler blowdown, wet particulate air scrubbers, and stormwater. There is also a small, earthen pond (referred to as the R&D pond in the renewal application)that receives condensate, cooling tower overflow, and stormwater. The water is typically recycled back into the plant,however, if an overflow does occur,the discharge from this pond will eventually travel through a series of small, earthen settling ponds prior to reaching the receiving stream and discharging at outfall 004. f. Description of proposed WWT facilities: There are no WWT facilities proposed at this time. g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: This facility has had a consistent compliance record with respect to toxicity testing. 2. Residual handling and utilization/disposal scheme: As the result of changes in the manufacturing process,there are essentially no residuals generated at this time. Previously, residuals were removed from the main treatment pond and stockpiled on-site. These solids were used throughout the site to fill uneven terrain and stabilize roads. Page Three 3. Treatment Plant Classification: Class II (no change from previous rating). 4. SIC Code(s): 2819, 2869 Wastewater Code(s): 32, 31, 02 5. MTU Code(s): 50000 PART III- OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION 1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grant Funds or are any public monies involved(municipals only)?No 2. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity)requests: None at this time. 3. Important SOC/JOC or Compliance Schedule dates: N/A 4. Alternative Analysis Evaluation: There are no known on-site or off-site alternatives that are currently available which would eliminate the need to discharge. PART IV-EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The permittee, FMC Corporation, Lithium Division(FMC), requests renewal of the subject Permit. Changes at this facility since the permit was last renewed include the removal and demolition of the spodumene ore process, and the removal and demolition of the two (2) package-type WWTPs that treated all of the domestic wastewater generated on-site. The spodumene ore process moved to a FMC site in South America, and all domestic wastewater is now diverted to Bessemer City's sewer collection system. All of the changes made at this facility since the permit was last reissued are documented in the renewal application. Pending receipt and approval of the WLA, it is recommended that the Permit be renewed as requested. 7/4"4.e... , c- ,. 4(...._ , / r 2/ °` Signature of Report Preparer Da I,/), 14 e.0CS`-4 .

Please review the draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. Changes to your existing permit are summarized below by outfall. Outfall 001 • The results of the priority pollutant analysis submitted by your facility detected the presence of magnesium. The concentration reported was evaluated in the reasonable potential analysis and was determined to exceed the allowable concentration for protection of water quality (using EPA's national water quality criteria). Based on this data, quarterly monitoring for magnesium is recommended to be included in the permit. • Deletion of quarterly monitoring for copper and zinc. A review of data indicated that there was no reasonable potential for the parameters to exceed the water quality action level standard. Outfall 004 • The addition of quarterly monitoring for ethylbenzene and methyl chloride. Information provided in the application indicated the potential discharge of these constituents through this outfall. Quarterly monitoring is recommended so that an evaluation of water quality can be done upon next permit renewal. At this time, the Division is submitting a notice to the newspapers of general circulation in Gaston County, inviting comments from you or your representative, the public and other agencies on the draft permit. The notice should be published on or about February 8, 2006. Following a 30-day comment period, we will review all pertinent comments received and take appropriate action on the permit issuance. 1617 MAIL SERVICE CENTER, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27699-1 61 7-TELEPHONE 919-733-5083/FAX 919-733-0719 VISIT US ON THE WEB AT http://h20.enr.5tate.nc.us/NPDES Permit No. NC0005177 FMC Lithium 1g Page 2 Please provide written comments on the draft permit no later than March 10, 2006.

(2) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. (3) A site map (or series of maps) drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas,process areas, and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations and impervious surfaces, the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the regulated stormwater discharge. (4) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. (5) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the requirements found in Part II,Section B. 11. b. Stormwater Management Plan: The stormwater management plan shall contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and non-structural measures. The stormwater management plan,at a minimum,shall incorporate the following: (1) A study addressing the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure of materials and Part I Permit NC0005177 processes to stormwater. Wherever practicable the permittee should consider covering storage areas, material handling operations, manufacturing or fueling operations to prevent materials exposure to stormwater. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practicable, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (2) A schedule to provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals, or storage of hazardous materials to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. (3) A narrative description of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as,but not limited to, oil and grease separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention,where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be based on the assessment of potential of sources contributing significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of stormwater discharges. (4) Inspection schedules of stormwater conveyances and controls and measures to be taken to limit or prevent erosion associated with the stormwater systems. c. Spill Prevention and Response Plan: The Spill Prevention and Response Plan shall incorporate a risk assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility.

The facility does chemical manufacturing of various Lithium based compounds. Also does research and development and laboratory analysis. Plant has two outfalls 001 and 004. Outfall 001 discharges air scrubber wastewater, boiler blowdown, a/c cooling water, compressor condensate, and combine plant wastewater. Outfall 004 is the stormwater outfall and discharges boiler blowdown, process condensate, and cooling water. Facility submitted additional information for the permit, noting the addition of contributing flow to the wastestream discharged from 001. The additional flow is of comparable characteristics to existing flow and will be approximately 35 GPM of Lithium Hydroxide Purge. The additional flow began late in the 3rd quarter of 2005. • Application notes that ethylbenzene and methyl chloride would potentially be discharged from the speciality organics chemical plant through Outfall 004. Will recommend quarterly monitoring for these parameters at 004. Existing limit for Outfall 001 are: Flow= 0.615 MGD, BOD5 = 30 mg/1, TSS= 333.9 lbs/day DO = 5.0 mg/1 PH = 6-9 SU Monthly monitoring for NH3, Chloride and Conductivity. Quarterly monitoring for copper, zinc, TN, TP, and chronic toxicity. Existing limits for Outfall 004: Monthly monitoring for flow, TSS, pH, Conductivity and Chloride Conductivity averages over 800-1000 umho from Outfall 004. F\IC C'i rp-f...irimnf Oirici,n i act Shea NPI)ES Renewal Page I COMPLIANCE INFORMATION Facility has been in compliance with all limits during this permit cycle. In 2004 and 2005, facility did not discharge from 001 for 2-3 months mostly during June, July and August. Average flow discharge at outfall 001 in 2005 - 0.355 MGD; Average flow discharge at outfall 001 in 2004-0.379 MGD. TOXICITY TESTING: Existing: Chronic Quarterly Test @ 78% in January April Jul Oct. Facility has passed all tests since September 2003. The last test failures were in July and August 2003. Investigation of the failures showed that copper and zinc discharge levels were not the cause of the toxicity problems. Problems were more than likely corrected since all toxicity tests since that time have passed. Recommendation: Renewal of existing Chronic tox test limit at 78% INSTREAM MONITORING: None required REASONABLE POTENTIAL ANALYSIS RPA was performed for copper and zinc data based on available data. Results indicated that there was no reasonable potential for copper to exceed either the acute or the chronic allowable concentration. For the zinc data, reasonable potential was shown although all the reported values were below detection. The issue with zinc data is that lab used different detection levels from month to month from <10 to <50, therefore the analysis showed RP. Since all values were below detection, will recommend that quarterly monitoring for copper and zinc be dropped. Data results from the priority pollutant analysis data submitted by FMC. The following constituents were present in PPA data submitted by FMC. NC Water quality standards for these constituents are applicable only to streams classified for WS (water supply usage). The receiving stream for FMC is UT Abernethy Creek and is classified C. Therefore, the standard is not applicable for this stream. No monitoring or limits will be recommended. Manganese = 0.29 mg/1 Sulfates = 420 mg/l. NC water quality standard applies to following reported data: Fluoride = 0.670 mg/1, the allowable concentration is 5010 ug/1 (5.0 mg/1). No monitoring for fluoride will be recommended. Gross alpha = 4.8 pCi/1, the allowable per NC narrative WQ standard is "not greater than 15 pCi/1. No monitoring for Gross alpha will be recommended. Gross beta = 11.5 pCi/l, the allowable per NC narrative WQ standard is "not greater than 50 pCi/1. No monitoring for Gross beta will be recommended. NC action level standard applies to following reported data: Iron = 0.058 mg/1, the allowable concentration is 2783 ug/1 (2.78 mg/1). No monitoring for iron will be recommended. No NC water quality standard, action level standard or federal criteria applies to the following: Bromide = 0.68 mg/1 Federal Criteria is applicable to the following reported data: Magnesium= 51 mg/1; the allowable concentration is 556 ug/1. Recommend quarterly monitoring for magnesium based on this data for full evaluation at next permit renewal. PROPOSED CHANGES: • Recommend that quarterly monitoring for copper and zinc be dropped. • Recommend the addition of quarterly monitoring for ethylbenzene and methyl chloride at outfall 004. • Recommend quarterly monitoring for magnesium based on exceedance of allowable concentration of federal criteria.

NPDES Permit Requirements Page 1 of 16 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS Section A. Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. Act or"the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act,also known as the Clean Water Act,as amended,33 USC 1251, et. seq. Annual Average • The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform,the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system,which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Day 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. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case-by-case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection,or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system,or (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. Version 6/20/2003 NPDES Permit Requirements Page 2 of 16 In accordance with (4) above,influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.3) Daily Maximum The highest"daily discharge"during the calendar month. Daily Sampling Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit. The Division expects that sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s). DWQ or"the Division" The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. Facility Closure The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility,or the cessation of all activities that require coverage under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded. Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean,values of"0" (or"< [detection level]") shall be considered =1. Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. Instantaneous flow measurement A measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. Version 6/20/2003 • NPDES Permit Requirements Page 3 of 16 Monthly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe property damage Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. Upset An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Permittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements. An upset does not include noncompliance caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance,or careless or improper operation.
