SECTION E. DEFINITION
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Environmental Management.
2. DEM or Division
Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Natural
Resources and Community Development.
Part II
Page 11 of 14
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 "Daily Average" or "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.
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.
Part II
Page 12 of 14
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" or
"Daily 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. It is identified as "Daily Maximum"
under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
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 I of the
permit.

Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours
average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean
of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time
of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the
total discharge.
Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at
equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, a sample continuously
collected proportionally to flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time
intervals. If a composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals between effluent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly except where the detention time
of the wastewater in the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which
case, the interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number of
hours than the detention time in number of days; provided, however, in
no case may the time between effluent grab samples be greater than six
hours nor the number of grab samples less than four during any discharge
period of 24 hours or less.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a
period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken
manually.
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.
Part II
Page 14 of 14
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.
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. 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, and in no case discharges with pH less than 5 unless the system
is specifically designed to accommodate such discharges.
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 concentration which will
cause an inhibition or disruption of the POTW, its treatment
processes, operation, or sludge use and disposal.
e. Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the treatment
works, resulting in interference but in no case heat in such
quantities that the temperature at the treatment works influent
exceeds 40 C (104 F) unless the works are designed to accommodate such
heat.
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
contributing industries discharging to the municipal system.
Part III
Continued
4. Permittee shall require any industrial dischargers into the permitted
system to meet Federal Pretreatment Standards promulgated in response to
Section 307(b) of the Act. Prior to accepting wastewater from any
significant industrial user the permittee shall develop and submit to the
Division for approval a Pretreatment Program.
A significant industrial user is one which discharges wastewater into a
publicly owned treatment works and which:
a. has an average daily process wastewater flow of greater than 50,000
gallons per day, or;
b. contributes more than 5% of any design capacity of the wastewater
treatment plant which received the discharge, or;
C. is required to meet a national categorical pretreatment standard, or;
d. is determined by the control authority to have a potential to adversely
impact the wastewater treatment plant or receiving stream, or to limit
the POTW sludge disposal options, or;
e. has been included in the permittee's pretreatment monitoring program
submitted in accordance with section 15 NCAC 2H.0906 of the North
Carolina Administrative Code.
Any change in the definition of a significant industrial user as a result
of promulgations in response to Section 307 of the Act or revisions to 15
NCAC 2H.0903 shall become a part of this permit.
5. This permit shall be modified, or alternatively, revoked and reissued, to
incorporate or modify an approved POTW Pretreatment Program or to include
a compliance schedule for the development of a POIW Pretreatment Program
as required under Section 402(b) (8) of the Clean Water Act and implementing
regulations or by the requirements of the approved State pretreatment
program, as appropriate.
B. Previous Permits
All previous State water quality permits issued to this facility, whether for
construction or operation or discharge, are hereby revoked by issuance of this
permit. The conditions, requirements, terms and provisions of this permit
authorizing discharge under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System govern discharges from this facility.
Part III
Continued
C. Construction
No construction of wastewater treatment facilities or additions thereto shall be
begun until Final Plans and Specifications have been submitted to the Division
of Environmental Management and written approval and Authorization to Construct
has been issued.
D. Certified Operator
Pursuant to Chapter 90A of North Carolina General Statutes, the permittee shall
employ a certified wastewater treatment plant operator in responsible charge of
the wastewater treatment facilities. Such operator must hold a certification of
the grade equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the
wastewater treatment facilities.
E. 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.

with any applicable effluent standard or limitation issued or approved under
Sections 301(b) (2) (C), and (D), 304(b) (2), and 307(a) (2) of the Clean Water
Act, if the effluent standard or limitation 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.
The permit ns modified or reissued under this paragraph shall also contain any
other requirements in the Act then applicable.
G. Toxicity Reopener
This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to incorporate toxicity
limitations and 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.
H. 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 99% (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

RE: Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements
Town of Stanley, North Carolina
Dear Rex,
The Town has found that it is unlikely that we will be able to have
funding arrangements completed for financing the wastewater treatment
plant improvements prior to the scheduled July 1 construction start
for the project. The Town has made application for loans through the
Farmers Home Administration and State Revolving Loan Program. There
are currently no funds available through either program that will be
in place prior to the scheduled start date for construction. For this
reason, the Town is requesting the start date for construction be ex-
tended to allow for further examinaiion of loan applications with botri
the State Revolving Loan Program and Farmers Home.
The Town requests that the JOC schedule be modified as follows:
1. Start construction of the treatment plant improvements
and outfall by January 1, 1990.
2. Complete construction and achieve compliance by
September 9, 1990.
We appreciate your consideration of these modifications to the JOC,
and thank you for your assistance in implementing these improvements
to the Town's facilities.
Sincerely,
TOWN OF STANLEY

H. 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 99% (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. 27611
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.

Subject: NPDES Permit No. NC 0020036
Town of Stanley
Gaston County, NC
Dear Ms. Medley:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0020036 was
issued on June 30, 1989 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of
this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit an-.
the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so,
it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of
particular importance is Page M3.
Page M3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) must not
exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed
"Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies,
sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your
discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required
monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the DMR
forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not received
these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to
receive the form, please contact this Office as quickly as
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting
form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form.
It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed.
The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III) set
forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions
applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities
and/or discharge(s). The conditions include special reporting
requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment
unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for
a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you are

operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in
operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type
of wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or
upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or
approved by this Agency. Failure to comply with the terms and
conditions of an NPDES Permit subjects the Permittee to
enforcement action.
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 M-1 or I-1
of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not
transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this
Permit, then you should request that the Permit be rescinded.
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,
D. Rex Gleason, P. E.

a point approximately 2000 feet downstream (into Mauney Creek).
There did not appear to be any problems associated with the
proposed discharge relocation.
The Town is currently under a JOC which states that
compliance with final limits should be achieved by April 1,
1990. The Town recently hired a new operator for the waste
treatment facilities, and noticeable improvements have been
made. The mechanical operations of the treatment plant appeared
to be in good condition.
The Permit should contain limitations for the existing and
proposed discharge locations.
It is recommended that the Permit be modified to include
the proposed relocated discharge.

Plaintiff,
CONSENT JUDGMENT
V.
Town of Stanley,
Defendant.
THIS CAUSE came on to be heard this day before the
undersigned Judge of Superior Court upon joint appearance by
the parties, who have announced to the Court that all
matters in controversy between them as alleged in the
Complaint have been settled and that they have consented to
the entry of the Consent Judgment upon the following
stipulations and terms:
STIPULATED FACTS
1. The plaintiff is the sovereign State of North
Carolina. The Department of Natural Resources and Community
Development (NRCD) is an agency of the State established
pursuant to NCGS 143B-275, et se ; and S. Thomas Rhodes is
its Secretary. The' Environmental Management Commission
2
(EMC) is an agency of the State established pursuant to NCGS
143B-282, et seq.
2. The defendant, Town of Stanley, in the County of
Gaston, North Carolina, is an incorporated municipality
established and created under North Carolina law. The
current mayor of Stanley is William S. Withers, upon whom
service of process may be made pursuant to Rule 4(j)(5)a of
the Rules of Civil Procedure.
3. The Town of Stanley holds North Carolina NPDES
Permit No. NC0020036 for operation of an existing wastewater
treatment works, the Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant, and
for making an outlet therefrom for treated wastewater to
Mauney Creek, Class C waters of this State, in the Catawba
River Basin, but is unable to comply with the final effluent
limitations for BOD, TSS, and NH3 as N as set forth in the
Permit. Compliance will require preparation of plans and
specifications for, and construction and operation of,
additional treatment works. The noncompliance with final
effluent limitations constitutes causing and contributing to
pollution of the waters of the State, and the Town is within
the jurisdiction of the Commission as set forth in NCGS
Chapter 143, Article 21.
4. The Town of Stanley, due to its noncompliance,
must provide financiri4 for, plan and construct treatment
works which will treat the wastewater presently being
3
discharged and any additional wastewater desired to be
discharged, to the extent that the Town will be able to
comply with final permit effluent limitations.
5. In response to the National Municipal Policy, 49
F.R. 3832, January 30, 1984, adopted by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency for assuring compliance with
the federal Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. §1342, by
publicly -owned treatment works, and in recognition of that
Act's July 1, 1988, deadline for compliance [§1311 of the
Act initially required compliance by July 1, 1977, but
extensions of time were granted until July 1, 1988 if
construction was required for compliance, pursuant to
§1311(i)], the Department and Commission have identified the
Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant of the Town of Stanley as
a facility which will not be in compliance due to
extraordinary circumstances. The Town has appropriated
funds and contracted with a consulting engineer who will
investigate in detail the present procedures at the
treatment facility and the waste streams being received, and
will make recommendations for changes and procedures
necessary to bring the Town into compliance with final
effluent limitations.
4

STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
COUNTY OF GASTON
IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE
SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION
88 CVS
STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA, ex rel
S. THOMAS RHODES, Secretary,
Department of Natural Resources
and Community Development, and
ex rel ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
COMMISSION,
Plaintiff,
Town of Stanley
says:
COMPLAINT
V.
Defendant.
Plaintiff, complaining of the Defendant, alleges and
PARTIES
1. The plaintiff is the sovereign State of North
Carolina. The Department of Natural Resources and Community
Development (NRCD). is an agency of the State established
pursuant to NCGS 143B-275, et s_S; and S. Thomas Rhodes is
its Secretary. The Environmental Management Commission
(EMC) is an agency of the State established pursuant to NCGS
143B-282, et seq.
2. Plaintiff is authorized to bring this action for
injunctive relief for'iziolations or threatened violations of
the State's water quality statutes, by reason of NCGS
2
143-215.6(c). Plaintiff administers the water quality
control program of the State of North Carolina, and is the
delegatee of the federally -mandated National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program established by
the §402 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. §1342.
3. The defendant, Town of Stanley, in the County of
Gaston, North Carolina, is an incorporated municipality
established and created under North Carolina law. The
current mayor of Stanley is William S. Withers, upon whom
service of process may be made pursuant to Rule 4(j)(5)a of
the Rules of Civil Procedure.
JURISDICTION
4. NCGS 143-215.6(c) authorizes the Superior Court to
hear the complaint and motion for injunctive relief of the
Secretary of the Department of Natural Resources and
Community Development, seeking to obtain compliance by the
Town of Stanley with the water quality statutes of this
State and the permits issued thereunder.
5. NCGS 143-215.6(c) likewise makes the Superior
Court of Gaston County the appropriate venue for this cause.
INTRODUCTION
6. NCGS 143-211 expresses the "intent of the General
Assembly that the powers and duties of the Environmental
Management Commissidn and the Department of Natural
3
Resources and Community Development be construed so as to
enable the Department and the Commission to qualify to
administer federally mandated programs of environmental
management...." To this end, the Department has obtained
appropriate delegations from the United States Environmental
Protection Agency to administer and enforce the NPDES
program.
7. The federal Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 U.S.C.
§1251 et sec.., (hereinafter CWA) requires all entities who
discharge into the navigable waters of the United States to
obtain a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permit from the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) in accordance with standards set by the Administrator
of the Agency. 33 U.S.C. §1342(a). The Administrator can,
however, "authorize" a state to issue NPDES permits in his
stead if the state permitting program is at least equal to
that under the CWA. 33 U.S.C. §1342(b). Thus, a discharge
permit issued by an "authorized" state satisfies both the
federal NPDES permit requirement and the state law permit
requirement of the issuing state. The discharge permit
requirement for the State of North Carolina is NCGS
143-215.1.
8. To maintain its status as an "authorized" state,
North Carolina must deMonstrate its ability to ensure, inter
alia, that NPDES permits in North Carolina meet certain
4
requirements set forth in the Clean Water Act or otherwise
established by the Administrator of EPA under the Act. 33
U.S.C. §1342(b)(1). One of these requirements is that all
publicly -owned treatment works (POTWs) or municipal sewage
treatment plants be in compliance with discharge standards
set forth in the CWA for such facilities no later than July
1, 1988. 33 U.S.C. §1311(b) and 1311(i).
9. On January 30, 1984, EPA announced a National
Municipal Policy to ensure that all POTWs meet the July 1,
1988 deadline for compliance with EPA standards. 49 F.R.
3832, January 30, 1984. Under the plan, each POTW not in
compliance with EPA standards would be required to submit a
plan of correction to meet the standards on or before July
1, 1988. These plans were to be submitted to the NPDES
permitting authority, such as North Carolina, which, in
turn, would work out a compliance schedule with the particu-
lar municipality.
10. In respo4se to the National Municipal Policy and
in recognition of the July 1, 1988, deadline for compliance,
the Department and Commission, inter alia, have identified
those POTWs within the State of North Carolina where there
are extraordinary circumstances that will make it impossible
for the affected municipality to meet a July 1, 1988 compli-
ance date. The Department and Commission have addressed,
and will continue to address; 1) completed facilities that
5
are not in compliance; 2) municipalities that are in the
construction grants process to receive funding from federal
and state sources; and 3) municipalities that need
construction to meet statutory requirements but may not
receive federal or state grant assistance.
11. Appropriate administrative orders or penalties are
pursued where necessary and authorized. However, the
National Municipal Policy, and the North Carolina strategy
for its implementation, requires that, where extraordinary
circumstances preclude compliance by POTWs by July 1, 1988,
such POTWs be placed on judicially enforceable schedules for
achieving compliance as soon as possible thereafter.
FACTS APPLICABLE TO THIS ACTION
12. The Town of Stanley holds North Carolina NPDES
Permit No. NC0020036 for operation of an existing wastewater
treatment works, the Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant, and
for making an outlet therefrom for treated wastewater to
Mauney Creek, Class C waters of this State, in the Catawba
River Basin, but is unable to comply with the final effluent
limitations for BOD, TSS, and NH3 as N as set forth in the
Permit. Compliance will require preparation of plans and
specifications for, and construction and operation of,
additional treatment works. The noncompliance with final
effluent limitations constitutes causing and contributing to
M
pollution of the waters of the State, and the Town is within
the jurisdiction of the Commission as set forth in NCGS
Chapter 143, Article 21.
13. The Town of Stanley, due to its noncompliance,
must provide financing for, plan and construct treatment
works which will treat the wastewater presently being
discharged and any additional wastewater desired to be
discharged, to the extent that the Town will be able to
comply with final permit effluent limitations.
REMEDY
14. The Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant of the Town
of Stanley is currently being operated in non-compliance
with the State's water quality statutes and is unable to
correct its non-compliance by July 1, 1988. The operation
of the plant is a violation or threatened violation of the
water quality statutes, giving rise to injunctive relief
under NCGS 143-215.6(c). Continued operation of the plant
is not in the public interest, unless coupled with a
definite, enforceable schedule of events leading to
compliance as soon as possible.
15. The injury suffered by the State and its citizens
is continuing, immediate, pressing and irreparable, and is
clearly established by this verified Complaint.
r�
CLAIM FOR RELIEF
WHEREFORE, the plaintiff prays the Court:
1. To consider this verified Complaint as an affida-
vit upon which to base all orders of the Court.
2. To issue a preliminary injunction, and a permanent
injunction upon trial on the merits, restraining and enjoin-
ing the defendant, Town of Stanley, from operating the
Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant in violation of the North
Carolina water quality statutes, the federal Clean Water
Act, and any permits issued thereunder, or in the
alternative,
To issue a preliminary injunction, and a permanent
injunction upon trial on the merits, restraining and
enjoining the defendant, Town of Stanley, from operating the
Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant, unless said operation is
undertaken pursuant to a definite, enforceable schedule
leading to compliance as soon as possible.
3. To tax the costs of this action to the defendant,
Town of Stanley.
4. To grant such further relief as the Court may deem
appropriate.

Dear Gentlenen:
Please find attached a Resolution from the Town of Stanley
requesting an Order by Consent. Please note that the Town of
Stanley has been in significant non-compliance over the last
several months, and under the direction of a new Board is
sincerely making a conscientious effort to try to. alleviate the
existing problems that they now are experiencing.
Please note that in the schedules shown, sufficient time
has been given to allow for a proper solution to their existing
problems rather than a band -aid approach. The proposed limits to
be complied with during the consent period have been established
based on the last year's discharge reports. The Town is
presently experimenting with the use of polymers to be used on
the short-term basis to hopefully reduce their discharge
concentrations far blow the proposed limit, but since the
improvments are not in place presently, cannot insure more
stringent discharge concentrations.
Your consideration of the attached proposed Order by Consent
is most appreciated. Should you have any questions, please feel
free to call.

MEMORANDUM TO: Bob Teulings
FROM: Rex Gleason
PREPARED BY: Michael L. Parkeroy
SUBJECT: Authorization to Construct
Town of Stanley WWTP improvements
AC0020036
Gaston County, N. C.
This Office has conducted a review of the request from the Town of Stanley
concerning the proposed improvements of the Town's WWTP.
The Town of Stanley is currently operating under an SOC until WWTP
improvements can be made and compliance achieved. Initially the Town had proposed
to construct tertiary filters following the secondary clarifiers and prior to
entering the chlorine contact chamber. These filters, according to the Town's
engineer, would reduce BODS and TSS on an interim basis and enable the WWTP
to achieve compliance with its NPDES Permit. These filters could be eliminated
at such time as normal design flows are measured at the WWTP.
The MRO does not believe that tertiary filters are the solution to the Town's
WWTP problems. It is recommended that the Town undertake further engineering
studies regarding the existing problem and provide supportive evidence (data etc.)
of any recommendation to correct the problem.
Permit No. NCO020036
SUPPLEMENT TO PERMIT COVER SHEET
Town of Stanley
is hereby authorized to:
1. Continue to operate a 1.40 MGD extended aeration
wastewater treatment plant with clarifiers, aerobic
digestors, drying beds and chlorination facilities
located in Stanley (See Part III of this Permit), and
2. Discharge from said treatment works into Mauney Creek
which is classified Class "C" waters in the Catawba

3. 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. Test Procedures

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
o
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:
Z 4 ,
PART TII
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.

Dear Mr. Wilms:
DEC ty.,
The Town of Stanley, NPDES Permit #NCO020036, would like to
request our SOC be modified. We request the compliance date
for submitting plans and specifications for additional
treatment be extended to February 1, 1987, for the following
reasons:
1. We have retained Environmental Wastewater Services
to prepare a feasibility study for the waste water
treatment system. This study will examine the
process and then offer solutions which -will bring
the plant into compliance in accordance with our
NPDES Permit,
2. E.W.S. has reviewed the plans and specifications
for construction of Tertiary Sand Filters. They
believe this is not a workable solution to the
problem for the following:
A. Although, these filters will reduce the BOD
and TSS on an interim basis, they will be
ineffective in reducing them for an extended
period of time.
B. Because the filters will be subject to high
concentrations of solids, they will soon become
RE. F-iV E D saturated and require solids removal. In order
for the filters to remain efficient, the solids
will have to be removed every three to four days.
C. The removal of solids and maintenance on the system
is labor intensive and expensive.
E.W.S. has taken the following steps in preparing
a study:
A. Performed on —site evaluations and lab analysis.
B. Consulted with other facilities experiencing
similar problems.
Co Consulted with specialists from Clemson University,
%ho believe our problems can be solved without
any major modifications to our existing facility.
A complete study from E.W.S. and a decision along with plans
and specifications will be submitted to your office by
February 1, 1987.
Upon your approval of the option chosen, we will then begin
construction of the modifications. The constructior. will
require 60 days for completion. We foresee no problems in
complying with the June 1, 19879 deadline for full compliance
of the current NPDES Permit.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or
Dean McGinnis, Town Manager, at 263-4779 or Mr. Leonard

Latitude: 35021'46" Longitude: 81 06'38"
b. USGS Quad No.: F14SE (see attached map)
7. Size (land available for expansion and upgrading): There is adequate area
available for the continued operation of the existing wastewater treatment
facilities (approximately 3 acres).
8. Topography: Sloping towards Mauney Creek at a rate of 3-12%.
9. Location of Nearest Dwelling: Four within 1000 feet of the discharge point.
10. Receiving Stream: U.T. to Mauney Creek
a. Classification: "C"
b. Minimum 7-Day, 10-Year Discharge at Site: 0.0 cfs
c. River Basin and Sub -Basin No.: Catawba 030835
PART II - DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING TREATMENT FACILITIES
1. Existing Facilities: The existing treatment facilities which comprise the
Stanley wastewater treatment plant are the following: a bar screen, parshall
flume, an aeration basin with (3) 40 h.p. aerators, two (2) rectangular
clarifiers, two (2) chlorine contact basins) aerobic sludge digestor and
sludge drying beds. The wastewater treatment facilities are designed for a
maximum flow of 1.4 MGD; however current flow levels are averaging approximate:
300,000 gpd. The Town's major industrial discharger, Talon Zipper, Inc.,
no longer discharges industrial dyes and, therefore, reduced the average
daily flow by approximately 15%.
PART III - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Performance Evaluation: According to self -monitoring data and a recent CEA
(dated September 18, 1984), the wastewater treatment facilities are in
compliance with Permit limitations.
2. 0 & M Evaluation: The wastewater treatment plant appeared in good operating
condition. The Town is currently disposing of the very small amount of
-2-
sludge generated at this facility by spreading it on Town property,
i.e., ball fields, etc. . The Town should cease this practice
and develop an alternative method of sludge disposal which must be
approved by this agency.
3. Recommendations and/or special conditions: It is recommended that -the
NPDES Permit for this facility be renewed.

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 zPro (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. S. 143-215.63 et seq, The
Water and Air Quality Reporting Act, and to regulations published pursuant
to Section 304(g), 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,
As Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136.
5. Recording Results
For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of
this permit, the permittee shall record the following information:
a. The exact place, date, and time of sampling;
b. The dates the analyses were aerformed; and
c. The person(s) who performed the analyses.

6. additional Monitoring by Permittee
If the permittee monitors any pollutant at the location(s) designa-ed
herein more frequently than required by this permit, using approved
analytical methods as specified above, the results of such monitoring
shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the values required
in the Monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM No. MR 1.0, 1.1, and 1.4)
Such increased frequency shall also be indicated. The DEM may require
more frequent monitoring or the monitoring of other pollutants not
required in this permit by written notification.
7. Records Retention
All records and information resulting from the monitoring activities
required by this Permit including all records of analyses performed and
calibration and maintenance of instrumentation and recordings from
continuous monitoring instrumentation shall be retained for a minimum of
three (3) years, or longer if requested by the Division of Environmental
Management or the Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency.

A. MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS
1. Change in Discharge
All discharges authorized herein shall be consistent with the terms and
conditions of this permit. The discharge of any pollutant identified
in this permit more frequently than or at a level in excess of that
authorized shall constitute a violation of the permit. Any anticipated
facility expansions, production increases, or process modifications which
will result in new, different, or increased discharges of pollutants must
be reported by submission of a new NPDES application or, if such changes
will not violate the effluent limitations specified in this permit, by
notice to the DEM of such changes. Following such notice, the permit
may be modified to specify and limit any pollutants not previously limited.
2. Non compliance Notification
If, for any reason, the permittee does not comply with or will be unable
to comply with any effluent limitation specified in this permit, the per-
mittee shall provide the Division of Environmental Management with the
following information, in writing, within five (5) days of becoming aware
of such condition:
a. A description of the discharge and cause of noncompliance; and
b. The period of noncompliance, including exact dates and times; or,
if not corrected; the anticipated time the noncompliance is expected
to continue, and steps being taken to reduce, eliminate and prevent
recurrence of the noncomplying discharge.
3. Facilities Operation
The permittee shall at all times maintain in good working order and
operate as efficiently as possible all treatment or control facilities
or systems installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with
the terms and conditions of this permit.
4. Adverse Impact
The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any adverse
impact to navigable waters resulting from noncompliance with any effluent
limitations specified in this permit, including such accelerated or
additional monitoring as necessary to determine the nature and impact of
the noncomplying discharge.
5. Bypassing
Any diversion from or bypass of facilities necessary to maintain compliance
with the terms and conditions of this permit is prohibited, except (i) where
M8&I7
PART II
Permit No. NC
unavoidable to prevent loss of life or severe property damage, or
(ii) where excessive storm drainage or runoff would damage any facilities
necessary for complaince with the effluent limitations and prohibitions
of this permit. All permittees who have such sewer bypasses or overflows
of this discharge shall submit, not later than six months from the date
of issue of this permit, detailed data or engineering estimates which
identify:
a. The location of each sewer system bypass or overflow;
b. The frequency, duration and quantity of flow from each sewer
system bypass or overflow.
This requirement is waived where infiltration/inflow analyses are
scheduled to be performed as part of an Environmental Protection Agency
facilities planning project.
6. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the
course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be disposed of in
a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from
entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United States.
7. Power Failures
The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards to
prevent the discharge of untreated of inadequately treated wastes
during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power
sources, standby generators or retention of inadequately treated efflu-
ent. Should the treatment works not include the above capabilities at
time of permit issuance, the permittee must furnish within six months
to the permitting authority, for approval, an implementation schedule
for their installing, or documentation demonstrating that such measures
are not necessary to prevent discharge of untreated or inadequately
treated wastes. Such documentation shall include frequency and duration
of power failures and an estimate of retention capacity of untreated
effluent.
B. Onshore or Offshore Construction
This permit does not authorize or approve the construction of any onshore
or offshore physical structures or facilities or the undertaking of any
work in any navigable waters.

PART III OTHER REQUIREMENTS
�. Requirements for Effluent Limitations on Pollutants Attributable to
Industrial Users
1. Effluent ]_imitations 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.
?. 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 cane heat in such quantities
that the temperature at the treatment works influent exceeds 40 C (1040
P)
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
rederal 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.
