(1) EFFLUENT LIMITS AND.MONITORING REQUIREMENTS During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the permittee is authorized to discharge from outfall 001. Such discharges shall be limited and monitored by the permittee as specified below: PARAMETER LIMITS MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Monthly Daily Measurement Sample Sample Parameter Description-PCS Code Average Maximum Frequency Type Location _ Flow1- 50050 0.4 MGD 1 1 Effluent BOD,5-Day(20 Deg.C) - 00310 30.0 mg/L 45.0 mg/L Quarterly Grab Effluent Solids,Total Suspended - 00530 30.0 mg/L 100.0 mg/L Quarterly Grab Effluent Nitrogen,Ammonia Total(as N) - 00610 Quarterly Grab Effluent Oil&Grease—00556 15.0 mg/L 20.0 mgiL Quarterly Grab Effluent Chlorine,Total Residual - 500604 28 µg/L Monthly Grab Effluent Chronic Toxicity2- TGP3B or THP3B Quarterly Grab Effluent pH3 - 00400 Weekly Grab Effluent Footnotes: 1. Flow may be monitored by either instantaneous or continuous measurements. Instantaneous flow measurements shall be obtained with the Parshall flume. Continuous flow measurements shall be obtained with a totalizer. 2. Chronic Toxicity(Ceriodaphnia) @ 23%. Testing will be conducted once each calendar quarter [see A. (2.)]. 3. The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units nor greater than 9.0 standard units. 4. The facility shall report all effluent TRC values reported by a NC certified laboratory including field certified. However,effluent values below 50 µg/L will be treated as zero for compliance purposes. There shall be no discharge of PCBs from this facility. Samples shall be collected from a representative discharge event. If no discharge occurs during a month,the DMR form should be so noted when submitted to the Division. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. Permit NC0080781 A. (2) 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 23%. 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 once during each calendar quarter. 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 Branch 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(Al) 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 Branch 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. If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit,the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation&reporting of the data submitted on the DMR&all AT Forms submitted. 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. NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 1 of 18 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. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. Act or"the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act,also known as the Clean Water Act(CWA),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 Week The period from Sunday through the following Saturday. 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 Version 7/2009 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 18 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. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The following restrictions also apply: ➢ Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters ➢ Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period. ➢ Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect effluent grab samples at least every six hours;there must be a minimum of four samples 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 122.2) 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. 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. EPA The United States Environmental Protection Agency Facility Closure Cessation of all activities that require coverage under this NPDES permit. 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. Version 7/2009 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 3 of 18 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 CWA. 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. 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 CWA. 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. Weekly Average(concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar week. In the case of fecal coliform,the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1. Duty to Comply The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit.

Ruhe Duke Energy Corporation PO Box 1006 Charlotte, North Carolina 28201 Subject: Draft NPDES Permit Permit NC0080781 Lincoln Combustion Turbine Plant Lincoln County Dear Mr. Ruhe: Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully so that you thoroughly understand the conditions and requirements it contains. Your permit is among several in the Catawba River basin the Division has targeted for expedited renewal. No major changes have taken place to the Division's management strategy for the Catawba River. The Division can therefore expedite renewal of permits in the Catawba River basin whose operations have not changed since the last permit renewal, and whose compliance records are in good standing. A Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) limit has been added to this permit. Because the subject facility is equipped with a dechlorination system, the TRC limit will take effect with the effective date of the final permit. Please refer to the enclosed TRC policy memo for details. Submit any written comments to me at the letterhead address no later than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft permit. If the Division does not receive any adverse comments from either you or the public within this designated time, our office will likely issue the final permit in early April, with an effective date of May 1, 2005. If you have any questions concerning this draft permit, contact me at (919) 733-5083, extension 532 or via email at "Vanessa.Manuel@ncmail.net".

Goodrich NPDES Unit Supervisor SUBJECT: Total Residual Chlorine Policy for NPDES permits Every three years the State is required by the Clean Water Act to review its surface water quality standards and classifications,determine if changes are needed and to make any necessary changes. This review process is referred to as the "triennial review." Public hearings were held to solicit comments for the 2000-2003 Triennial Review of surface water quality standards during the summer of 2002. The Hearing Officer's recommendations were presented before the state's Environmental Management Commission on October 10,2002. The Hearing Officer's recommended changes included modifications to the existing standards for Arsenic,Cyanide, Methylene Blue Active Substances (MBAS) and Total Residual Chlorine (TRC). The Hearing Officer also recommended the addition of a standard for Methyl Tert-Butyl Ether(MTBE). All of the Hearing Officer's proposed changes were adopted with the exception of MTBE. The changes took effect on April 1,2003. This memo documents the changes to the NPDES permitting policy for TRC limits. Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) Previously,TRC had an Action Level Standard,except in designated Trout waters. The Triennial Review changes modified the TRC Action Level Standard to an Aquatic Life Standard of 17 µg/L. The Aquatic Life Standard will remain for designated Trout waters. Aquatic Life Standard— 17 µg/L (freshwater only) Trout Waters— 17 µg/L Revised TRC Policy ➢ TRC limits will be assigned to permit renewals and all new permits issued after April 1,2003. > Facilities that do not use chlorine will not receive a TRC limit;however,the presence of a chlorine back-up system to augment UV or other disinfection requires a TRC limit. > Facilities discharging to streams with a 7Q10 <0.05 cfs (zero-flow streams)will receive a limit of 17 pg/L. > Limits will be capped at 28 µg/L to protect against acute impacts. It is likely that many facilities will need to add dechlorination(or use another means of disinfection) to comply with the new TRC standard. Therefore,a compliance schedule of 18 months from the effective date of the permit may be added to any TRC limit added during the current permit renewal. This time period is allowed in order for the facility to budget and design/construct the dechlorination and/or alternative disinfection system(s). The NPDES Unit has promulgated minimum design criteria in order to expedite permitting of dechlorination equipment. cc: Coleen Sullins Regional Office Supervisors (Dechlorination guidance attached) Shannon Langley Permit NC0080781 STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY PERMIT TO DISCFIARGE WASTEWATER UNDER THE NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM In compliance with the provisions of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1,other lawful standards and regulations promulgated and adopted by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission,and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,as amended, Duke Energy Corporation is hereby authorized to discharge condensate wastewater from a facility located at Lincoln Combustion Turbine Plant 6769 Old Plank Road (NCSR 1511) Lincoln County to receiving waters designated as Killian Creek in the Catawba River Basin in accordance with effluent limits,monitoring requirements, and other conditions set forth in Parts I,II,III and IV hereof.

Samples shall be collected from a representative discharge event. If no discharge occurs during a month,the DMR form should be so noted when submitted to the Division. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT- Quarterly Permit NC0080781 The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriadaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 23%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum,quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the"North Carolina Cerixlaphnia Chronic Effluent BioassayProcedure,"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 once during each calendar quarter. 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(IV 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 Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.

Page Two PART II- DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS 1. a. Volume of wastewater: 0.09505 MGD (Design Capacity) b. What is the current permitted capacity: 0.09505 MGD e. Description of existing or substantially constructed WWT facilities: The existing WWT facilities consist of four(4) oil water separators followed by an aeration tank, a two cell settling pond (250,000 gallons each), and pH neutralization. The oil/water separators collect water from various turbine processes including miscellaneous piping leaks, wash down water, and stormwater runoff. The discharges from the four oil/water separators enter into an aeration tank, which collect wastewater from the turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump, and the vehicle wash. From the aeration basin, all wastewater flows into the two settling cells. The two settling cells receive wastewater from the combustion turbine sumps (see renewal application for a description of all waste streams tributary to the turbine sumps) as well as the filtered water system and the demineralized water system. Discharges to the two settling cells is on a batch basis with the cells providing a common mixing point for all plant wastewater. Following treatment in the settling cells, neutralization and dechlorination is provided prior to discharge. All sanitary wastewater is treated by an existing 2000 gpd septic tank/nitrification system. f. Description of proposed WWT facilities: There are no proposed WWT facilities at this time. g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: Chemicals that can be expected in the wastewater include: corrosion inhibitors, housekeeping chemicals, surfactants and defoamers, maintenance chemicals and degreasers, and water treatment chemicals (a list of all chemicals currently maintained on-site is included in the application). This facility has consistently passed all toxicity testing. 3. Treatment Plant Classification: Class I (no change from previous rating). PART III- OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION 1. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity) requests: The permittee has requested the following monitoring reductions in the reissued permit: a. Whole Effluent Toxicity- from quarterly to semi-annually b. Oil and grease - quarterly to semi-annually c. Total Suspended Solids - quarterly to semi-annually d. Biological Oxygen Demand - quarterly to semi-annually e. Total Residual Chlorine - monthly to quarterly f. Nitrogen Ammonia- quarterly to semi-annually Page Three PART IV- EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS Duke Energy Corporation(DEC)requests renewal of the NPDES Permit for the Lincoln Combustion Turbine Plant(LCTP) in Lincoln County. There have been no changes to the WWT facility and/or the permit since the permit was last renewed. Wastewaters produced at this facility consist of raw water processed for use in the combustion turbine operations and in-plant processes. In discussion with DEC staff regarding this renewal, it was learned that the discharge from the LCTP would likely be eliminated by the middle to end of next year(2010). DEC sold a portion of the property at the LCTP to Lincoln County, who is in the process of constructing a new POTW (Killian Creek WWTP -NC0088722) at the LCTP site. Construction of the Killian Creek WWTP is underway, and the County hopes to have the plant operational sometime in 2010. The LCTP will be one of the first customers connected to the new WWTP given its proximity to the site. Until such time as the new POTW is completed and placed into operation, the subject permit will have to be reissued. Therefore,pending receipt and approval of the draft permit, it is recommended that the permit be renewed as requested. ec �9 /�,� /a 7 9 Signature of Report Preparer ate '9 /.2/ /0 Water Quality egional Supervisor ate h:\dsr\dsr09\linclnct.doc Arcv:AA, NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Beverly Eaves Perdue Coleen H.

The Lincoln facility serves as a primary source of power during peak demand periods, and also during times when energy from other sources may be unavailable. The greatest electrical demand is usually in the summer and winter months. Each combustion turbine can be operated independently and for extended periods of time if necessary. Combustion turbines burn #2 low-sulfur fuel oil or natural gas to heat compressed air, which expands and drives a turbine-generator to produce electricity. Construction of the LCT units was completed in March of 1996. The attached schematic illustrates the water flow through LCT, indicating the source of intake water, operations contributing to the effluent, and the wastewater treatment provided. The estimated flows on the line drawing are representative of present station operation. The following is a brief narrative description of sources contributing to the wastewater effluent of outfall 001. Intake Raw water is withdrawn from Killian Creek and stored in the 50 million gallon Raw Water Storage Pond. The pond is equipped with an overflow pipe to wetlands, which flows into Killian Creek. The raw water intake screens are sparged with air periodically to remove trapped creek debris. This debris is flushed back into the creek. Dredging of the intake is done periodically in accordance with the ACOE 404 permit (#199404202). From this pond, raw water is processed by the filtered water and demineralized water treatment systems in order to purify service water for combustion turbine operations and plant processes. The wastewater and chemicals generated by these processes are discharged to the wastewater treatment system at the LCT site. Outfall 001 - System Description Outfall 001 discharges treated wastewater from the Wastewater Treatment (WT) system through a flume to Killian Creek below the LCT site. The WT system basin consists of two parallel concrete lined treatment cells (250,000 gallons each). The treatment basin provides a common mixing point for all site wastewater. Discharge from the basin is on a batch basis and is neutralized as needed while discharging. The wastewater treatment system provides settling and neutralization prior to discharge. This basin processes wastewater flows from the water treatment system and an aeration tank, which collects wastewater from four turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash. The total combined effluent from these sources is approximately 0.30 Million Gallons per Day (MGD). Wastewater from the WT treatment system is discharged to Killian Creek at Outfall 001. Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 3 of 9 Filtered Water System Flow from the Raw Water Storage Pond is directed to the filtered water system where it is treated for process use. The filtered water treatment system at LCT consists of a clarifier, three gravity sand filters and a clear well. Wastewater and raw water solids from the filtered water system are drained to the wastewater treatment basin, which provides settling treatment. Clarifier The clarifier utilizes typical water treatment chemicals such as cationic polyelectrolyte, clay, and gaseous chlorine for the primary treatment of raw water. The sedimentation wastes collected in the clarifier consists of solids that were suspended in the service water. Just prior to the flash floc tank, gaseous chlorine is injected into the raw water. The cationic polyelectrolyte is added from a unit called a "Poly Flow". This unit receives dilution water from a filtered water compression skid and injects the polyelectrolyte into the flash floc tank. Also, the clay receives dilution water from the filtered water compression skid and the clay slurry is pumped into the flash floc tank. Approximately 110 gallons per year of polyelectrolyte may be used. The average volume of water required for desludging the clarifier is between 10,000 - 20,000 gallons per day. Typically, these sedimentation wastes (which consist of mud, silt, clay and flocculent precipitate) along with diluted water treatment chemicals and by- products, gravity flow from the bottom of the clarifier and are collected in the wastewater treatment basin. Gravity Filters There are three gravity sand filters composed of anthracite (coal) and sand, downstream of the clarifier in the water treatment process. Normally, each of these filters is backwashed two to five times each day during peak operation. Each backwash uses about 10,000 gallons of water. On the average, 90,000 gallons of backwash water is produced daily from filter backwashes. This wastewater drains to a cement trench that discharges to the wastewater treatment basins. The sand filters are changed on an as needed basis. The filtered water is stored in one of two 400,000 gallon filtered water tanks (A and B). Of this total volume of water, 300,000 gallons are designated for fire protection usage. Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 4 of 9 Demineralized Water System The Demineralized Water System provides high purity water which is injected into the combustion turbines for nitrous oxide (NOx) control. The demineralized water is also used for miscellaneous plant usage such as housekeeping, turbine deck wash water and cooling water makeup. Activated Carbon Filters The Demineralized Water System includes three, 235 ft3 carbon filters. These filters are typically backwashed weekly. The amount of water required to backwash one of these filters is approximately 10,000 gallons of water per backwash. Backwashes may occur daily or weekly, depending on station operation. The carbon is replenished as needed and the spent carbon is routed to the wastewater treatment basin. Demineralizers There are three trains of resin bed regenerative demineralizers. Each train consists of one anion resin bed and one cation resin bed. Normally, one to three trains of demineralizers are in operation. The demineralized water produced is stored in two demineralized water storage tanks (A and B) which have a capacity of 1.4 million gallons each. Regeneration of one anion/cation demineralizer train may occur as often as once per day. A typical regeneration of one train takes approximately 50,000 gallons of water. The amounts of required acid and caustic will vary as dictated by operational requirements. Wastewater from these regenerations is discharged to a 150,000 gallon neutralization tank. The wastewater is neutralized prior to discharge to the wastewater treatment basin. The acid and caustic used in the neutralization process are stored in day tanks. The acid day tank contains 380 gallons and the caustic day tank conatins 730 gallons. In the event of a leak from the day tanks, the acid or caustic would be neutralized and drained to the wastewater treatment basins. The capacities of the bulk sulfuric acid and the sodium hydroxide tanks are 4,000 and 4,500 gallons respectively. Combustion Turbine Sumps The four turbine sumps are concrete structures which have two pumps per sump. These pumps are operated on an alternating basis. After a preselected time period, the controls are automatically cycled so the pump operation is swapped. The turbine sumps collect wastewater from four oil/water separators. These oil/water separators receive wastewater from various turbine processes, such as miscellaneous piping leaks, wash down water and stormwater runoff. This wastewater may contain small amounts of propylene glycol, lube oil and/or fuel oil as a result of piping leaks or false starts from the turbine. The Chemicals on Site list shows additional chemicals presently being used at the station and which may be present in the wastewater. Generically, these chemicals may be classified as: Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 5 of 9 • Corrosion inhibitors • Housekeeping chemicals • Surfactants and defoamers • Maintenance chemicals and degreasers • Water treatment chemicals. The turbine sumps process approximately 90 to 4,200 Gallons Per Day (GPD) of wastewater. The following are the waste streams that could be collected in the turbine sumps which have oil/water separators, with the exception of the residual compressor water wash, which by-passes the oil/water separators: • Fuel oil from false starts • Lube oil leaks • Cooling water leaks • Turbine deck wash water • Fuel oil filter skid drains. Fuel Oil From False Starts A starting turbine may not get an ignition flame on the first attempt. As a result, the engine has to be shut down and the combustion chamber fuel drained prior to a system restart. Lube Oil Leaks Intermittent lube oil piping leaks may occur on each combustion turbine during normal operation. When the combustion turbine decks are periodically hosed down with water as part of the housekeeping practices, these trace amounts of oil are flushed to the oil/water separator. Cooling Water Leaks Intermittent cooling water leaks may occur around the cooling water system pressure fitting gaskets. This leakage amount is usually very small. These leaks contain propylene glycol and a corrosion inhibitor. Turbine Deck Wash Water During normal operation, the combustion turbines or their decks are periodically washed with water for housekeeping purposes. This volume is approximately 200 to 400 gallons. Fuel Oil Filter Skid Drains Fuel oil filter skids are located in the turbine yard separately from the combustion turbines. There is a filter skid for each combustion turbine. Each skid area is curbed and furnished with a yard drain. Rain water washes trace amounts of oil to these drains which lead to the oil/water separator. Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 6 of 9 Aeration tank wastewater The aeration tank receives wastewater from the turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump and vehicle wash. The maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash wastewater are received via an oil/water separator. In the aeration tank the waste is mixed with activated sludge and aerated to reduce the total organic carbon content. Wastewater Treatment Basin Operation Presently, the wastewater treatment basin is receiving wastewater streams from the sources listed in the following sections of this Supplemental Information document: Filtered Water System, Demineralized Water System, and Combustion Turbine Sumps. Compressor Wash Water The interior and blades of each turbine compressor is water washed normally once per year. Approximately 3,000 to 3,500 gallons of water is used to perform this turbine blade washing. This water drains directly to the turbine sumps. When this procedure is being performed, the sump pumps are isolated and the sump acts as a collection point for this wastewater. The wash water is pumped and hauled to a permitted disposal facility. Stormwater (sw) SW runoff is diverted into six different drainage systems. SW systems are as follows: SW 001 • Transformer skid oil/water separator • Runoff from transformer skids • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 002 • North side runoff(Combustion Turbine Units 1 - 8 ) • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 003 • Warehouse receiving area (small area) • Drains to open area at East end of site SW 004 • East side runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 005 • South side runoff(Combustion Turbine Units 9 - 16) • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 7 of 9 SW 006 • Oil spill containment basin oil/water separator • Used oil storage tank skid runoff • Fuel oil unloading pad runoff • Oil spill containment basin runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek. Various herbicides and pesticides are applied on the site by a vendor. These applications are applied in compliance with manufacturers' guidelines by licensed applicators. Drinking Water Drinking water is supplied to the site from two wells. The site is not on the state drinking water database because it does not meet the minimum personnel requirements. Sanitary System Sanitary wastes from the plant are treated by a 2,000 gallon septic tank. Sanitary effluent is pumped by a lift station from the discharge chamber of the septic tanks to a leachate field for final treatment. Based on annual data, the average daily flow to the leachate field has been approximately 750 gallons per day. The sanitary system is permitted by Lincoln County. Spill Prevention The LCT has two 5.5 million gallon above ground fuel oil storage tanks. Each above ground oil tank at LCT was designed with secondary containment which is capable of containing the entire contents of both tanks. This station has both an SPCC (Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures) plan as well as a FRP (Facility Response Plan) as specified in Federal regulations 40 CFR 112. Detailed listings of oil sources at this station are kept current in both the SPCC and FRP plans.

EFFLUENT LIMITS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS— FINAL During the period beginning on July 1,2005 and lasting until February 28,2010,the permittee is authorized to discharge from outfall 001. Such discharges shall be limited and monitored by the permittee as specified below: EFFLUENT CHARACTERISTICS LIMITS MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Monthly Daily Measurement Sample Sample Parameter Description-PCS Code Average Maximum Frequency Type Location Flow1- 50050 0.4 MGD > > Effluent BOD,5-Day(20 Deg.C) - 00310 30.0 mg/L 45.0 mg/L Quarterly Grab Effluent Solids,Total Suspended - 00530 30.0 mg/L 100.0 mg/L Quarterly Grab Effluent Nitrogen,Ammonia Total(as N) - 00610 Quarterly Grab Effluent Oil&Grease—00556 15.0 mg/L 20.0 mg/L Quarterly Grab Effluent Chlorine,Total Residual - 50060 28 µg/L Monthly Grab Effluent Chronic Toxicity2- TGP3B or THP3B Quarterly Grab Effluent pH3 - 00400 Weekly Grab Effluent Footnotes: 1. Flow may be monitored by either instantaneous or continuous measurements. Instantaneous flow measurements shall be obtained with the Parshall flume. Continuous flow measurements shall be obtained with a totalizer. 2. Chronic Toxicity(Cerudap nia)Qa 23%. Testing will be conducted once each calendar quarter[see A (2.)]. 3. The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units nor greater than 9.0 standard units. There shall be no discharge of PCBs from this facility. Samples shall be collected from a representative discharge event. If no discharge occurs during a month,the DMR form should be so noted when submitted to the Division. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. 1 Permit NO0080781 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT - Quarterly The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Cenodapbnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 23%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum,quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the"North Carolina Ceriodapbnia 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 once during each calendar quarter. 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 Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch 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 Branch 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. 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. NPDES Permit Requirements Page 1of16 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 nil 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. Weekly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar week. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1. Duty to Comply The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit.

Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 2 of 9 General Site Information The Lincoln Combustion Turbine (LCT) site consists of sixteen combustion turbine generator units that supply 74 Megawatts per unit for a total of 1,184 Megawatts. The Lincoln facility serves as a source of power during peak demand periods, and also during times when energy from other sources may be unavailable. The greatest electrical demand is usually in the summer and winter months. Each combustion turbine can be operated independently and for extended periods of time, if necessary. Combustion turbines burn #2 low-sulfur oil or natural gas to heat compressed air, which expands and drives a turbine-generator to produce electricity. Construction of the LCT units was completed in March of 1996. On page 9 is a line drawing showing the water flow through LCT, indicating the source of intake water, operations contributing to the effluent, and the wastewater treatment provided. The estimated flows on the line drawing are representative of present station operation. The following is a brief narrative description of sources contributing to the wastewater effluent of outfall 001. Intake Raw water is withdrawn from Killian Creek and stored in the 50 million gallon Raw Water Storage Pond. The pond is equipped with an overflow pipe to wetlands, which flows into Killian Creek. The raw water intake screens are sparged with air periodically to remove trapped creek debris. This debris is flushed back into the creek. From this pond, raw water is processed by the filtered water and demineralized water treatment systems in order to make pure service water for combustion turbine operations and plant processes. The wastewater and chemicals generated by these processes are discharged to the wastewater treatment system at the LCT site. Outfall 001 - System Description Outfall 001 discharges treated wastewater from the Wastewater Treatment (WT) system through a flume to Killian Creek below the LCT site. The WT system basin consists of two parallel concrete lined treatment cells (250,000 gallons each). The treatment basin provides a common mixing point for all site wastewater. Discharge from the basin is on a batch basis. The wastewater treatment system provides settling, neutralization and dechlorination prior to discharge. This basin processes wastewater flows from the water treatment system and an aeration tank, which collects wastewater from four turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash. The total combined effluent from these sources is approximately 0.10 million gallons per day (MGD). Wastewater from the WT system is discharged to Killian Creek at Outfall 001. August 2004 Lincoln Combustion Turbine,Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 3 of 9 Filtered Water System Flow from the Raw Water Storage Pond is directed to the filtered water system where it is treated for process use. The filtered water treatment system at LCT consists of a clarifier, three gravity sand filters and a clear well. Wastewater and raw water solids from the filtered water system are drained to the wastewater treatment basin, which provides settling treatment. Solids are periodically removed from the wastewater treatment ponds and properly disposed in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management. Clarifier The clarifier utilizes typical water treatment chemicals such as cationic polyelectrolyte, clay, and gaseous chlorine for the primary treatment of raw water. The sedimentation wastes collected in the clarifier consists of solids that were suspended in the service water. - Just prior to the flash floc tank, gaseous chlorine is injected into the raw water. The cationic polyelectrolyte is added from a unit called a "Poly Flow". This unit receives dilution water from a filtered water compression skid and injects the polyelectrolyte into the flash floc tank. Also, the clay receives dilution water from the filtered water compression skid and the clay slurry is pumped into the flash floc tank. Approximately 110 gallons per year of polyelectrolyte may be used. The average volume of water required for desludging the clarifier is between 10,000 - 20,000 gallons per day. Typically, these sedimentation wastes (which consist of mud, silt, clay and flocculent precipitate) along with diluted water treatment chemicals and by- products, gravity flow from the bottom of the clarifier and are collected in the wastewater treatment basin. Gravity Filters There are three gravity sand filters composed of anthracite (coal) and sand, downstream of the clarifier in the water treatment process. Normally, each of these filters is backwashed two to five times each day during peak operation. Each backwash uses about 10,000 gallons of water. On the average, 90,000 gallons of backwash water is produced daily from filter backwashes. This wastewater drains to a cement trench that discharges to the wastewater treatment basins. The sand filter is changed on an as needed basis. The filtered water is stored in one of two 400,000 gallon filtered water tanks (A and B). Of this total volume of water, 300,000 gallons are designated for fire protection usage. Demineralized Water System The Demineralized Water System provides high purity water which is injected into the combustion turbines for nitrous oxide (NOx) control. The demin water is also used for miscellaneous plant usage such as housekeeping, turbine deck wash water and cooling water. August 2004 Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 4 of 9 Activated Carbon Filters The Demineralized Water System includes three, 235 ft3 carbon filters. These filters are typically backwashed weekly. The amount of water required to backwash one of these filters is approximately 10,000 gallons of water per backwash. Backwashes may occur daily or weekly, depending on station operation. The carbon is replenished as needed and the spent carbon is routed to the wastewater treatment basin. Demineralizers There are three trains of resin bed regenerative demineralizers. Each train consists of one anion resin bed and one cation resin bed. Normally, one to three trains of demineralizers are in operation. The demineralized water produced is stored in two demineralized water storage tanks (A and B) which have a capacity of 1.4 million gallons each. Regeneration of one anion/cation demineralizer train may occur as often as once per day. A typical regeneration of one train takes approximately 50,000 gallons of water. The amounts of required acid and caustic will vary as dictated by operational requirements. Wastewater from these regenerations is discharged to a 150,000 gallon neutralization tank. The wastewater is neutralized prior to discharge to the wastewater treatment basin. The acid and caustic used in the neutralization process are stored in day tanks. The acid day tank holds 380 gallons and the caustic day tank holds 730 gallons. In the event of a leak from the day tanks, the acid or caustic would be neutralized and drained to the wastewater treatment basins. The capacities of the bulk sulfuric acid and the sodium hydroxide tanks are 4,000 and 4,500 gallons respectively. Combustion Turbine Sumps The four turbine sumps are concrete structures which have two pumps per sump. These pumps are operated on an alternating basis. After a preselected time period, the controls are automatically cycled so the pump operation is swapped. The turbine sumps collect wastewater from four oil/water separators. These oil/water separators receive wastewater from various turbine processes, such as miscellaneous piping leaks, wash down water and stormwater runoff. This wastewater may contain small amounts of propylene glycol, lube oil and/or fuel oil as a result of piping leaks or false starts from the turbine. The Chemicals on Site list (page 7), identifies additional chemicals presently being used at the station and which may be present in the wastewater. Generically, these chemicals maybe classified as: • Corrosion inhibitors • Housekeeping chemicals • Surfactants and defoamers • Maintenance chemicals and degreasers • Water treatment chemicals. August 2004 Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 5 of 9 The turbine sumps process approximately 90 GPD to 4,200 GPD of wastewater. The following are the waste streams that could be collected in the turbine sumps which have oil/water separators, with the exception of the residual compressor water wash which by-passes the oil/water separators: • Fuel oil from false starts • Lube oil leaks • Cooling water leaks • Turbine deck wash water • Fuel oil filter skid drains. - Fuel Oil From False Starts A starting turbine may not get an ignition flame on the first attempt. As a result, the engine has to be shut down and the combustion chamber fuel drained prior to a system restart. Lube Oil Leaks Intermittent lube oil piping leaks may occur on each combustion turbine during normal operation. When the combustion turbine decks are periodically hosed down with water as part of the housekeeping practices, these trace amounts of oil are flushed to the oil/water separator. Cooling Water Leaks Intermittent cooling water leaks may occur around the cooling water system pressure fitting gaskets. This amount is usually very small. These leaks contain propylene glycol and a corrosion inhibitor. Turbine Deck Wash Water During normal operation, the combustion turbines or their decks are periodically washed with water for housekeeping purposes. This volume is approximately 200 to 400 gallons. Fuel Oil Filter Skid Drains Fuel oil filter skids are located in the turbine yard separately from the combustion turbines. There is a filter skid for each combustion turbine. Each skid area is curbed and furnished with a yard drain. Rain water washes trace amounts of oil to these drains which lead to the oil/water separator. • Aeration tank wastewater The aeration tank receives wastewater from the turbine yard sumps, service building sump, maintenance/warehouse sump and vehicle wash. The maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash are received via an oil/water separator. In the aeration tank the waste is mixed with activated sludge and aerated to reduce the total organic carbon content. - Compressor Wash Water The interior and blades of each turbine compressor is water washed normally once per year. Approximately 3,000 to 3,500 gallons of water is used to perform this turbine August 2004 Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 6 of 9 blade washing. This water drains directly to the turbine sumps. When this procedure is being performed, the sump pumps are isolated and the sump acts as a collection point for this wastewater. The wash water is pumped and hauled to a permitted wastewater treatment facility. At present this wastewater treatment facility is located at McGuire Nuclear Station. Stormwater (SW) SW runoff is diverted into six different drainage systems. SW systems are as follows: SW 001 • Transformer skid oil/water separator • Runoff from transformer skids • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek • SW 002 • North side runoff(Combustion Turbine Units 1 - 8 ) • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 003 • Warehouse receiving area (small area) • Drains to open area at East end of site SW 004 • East side runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 005 • South side runoff(Combustion Turbine Units 9 - 16) • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 006 • Oil spill containment basin oil/water separator • Used oil storage tank skid runoff • Fuel oil unloading pad runoff • Oil spill containment basin runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek. Various herbicides and pesticides are applied on the site by a vendor. These applications are applied in compliance with manufacturers' guidelines by licensed applicators. Drinking Water Drinking water is supplied to the site from two wells. The site is not on the State's drinking water database because it does not meet the minimum personnel requirements. August 2004 Lincoln Combustion Turbine,Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 7 of 9 Sanitary System Sanitary wastes from the plant are treated by a 2,000 gallon septic tank. Sanitary effluent is pumped by a lift station from the discharge chamber of the septic tanks to a leachate field for final treatment. Based on annual data, the average daily flow to the leachate field has been approximately 750 gallons per day. The sanitary system is permitted by Lincoln County. Spill Prevention The LCT has two 5.5 million gallon above ground fuel oil storage tanks.- Each above ground oil tank at LCT was designed with secondary containment which is capable of containing the entire contents of both tanks. This station has both an SPCC (Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures) plan as well as a FRP (Facility Response Plan) as specified in Federal regulations 40 CFR 112. Detailed listings of oil sources at this station are kept current in both the SPCC and FRP plans. Chemicals on Site The following is a list of typical chemicals located at LCT and is not inclusive. Various amounts of these substances may go to the wastewater treatment basin due to use in site laboratories, small leaks, spills, or drips from closed loop systems.

In reference to Item V-D of Form 2-C, the substances identified under Table 2c-3 that may be in the discharge are as follows: Cyclohexanone, Epichlorohydrin, Styrene, Triethanolamine, Vanadium and Zirconium. Other- During the course of the year products such as commercial cleaners and laboratory reagents may be purchased-which contain very low levels of-a substance found in Table 2c-3. It is not anticipated that these products will impact the treatment system ability to comply with its toxicity limits, since their concentrations are extremely low. 40 CFR 117 and CERCLA Hazardous Substances The following table identifies hazardous substances located on-site that may be released to the waste water treatment system during a spill in quantities equal to or greater than the reportable quantity (RQ) levels as referenced in 40 CFR 117, 302 and 355. This list is being provided in order to qualify for the spill reportability exemption provided under 40 CFR 117 and the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA).

The objective of this on-going monitoring program is to provide data to assess balanced and indigenous populations with respect to operation of LCTS and evaluate renewal of the Station NPDES permit NC0080781. • Killian Creek flows were substantially impacted by the mid-1998 through 2002 regional drought, culminating in severe flow reductions in summer and early fall 2002. Median monthly flows for the period June through September 2002 were less than the 7Q10 flow for the monitoring site. LCTS water withdrawals from Killian Creek occurred on 113 days during 2000 — 2003, or on 7.9 % of the available days. The maximum daily withdrawal rate monitored and reported to NCDENR was 4.39 cfs (1971 gpm), occurring over a six-hour period on December 25, 2000. The volume of water withdrawn by LCTS remained well within the limitations of the agreement with NCDENR. • The discharge of wastewater by LCTS occurred on 118 of 1,429 days (< 8.3 % of days) during 2000 — 2003. Wastewater discharges by volume averaged 5.6 % of the average daily stream flow for Killian Creek during 2000 — 2003. Annual average mixing ratios for LCTS wastewater discharges into the receiving stream over this period were: 2.9 % (2000); 2.3% (2001); 23.4% (2002); and 0.8% (2003). • The bioclassifications assigned based on analysis of the macroinvertebrates collected in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks ranged from "Poor" to "Good-Fair". In comparison to the other sampling sites, the Forney Creek sampling location had the lowest bioclassification each year, with steadily decreasing bioclassifications from 2000 through 2003. Typically, the control location had a bioclassification similar to the first Killian Creek location and results indicate a decrease in bioclassification at the Forney Creek location and then a gradual increase _in bioclassification downstream. Results from 2000 through 2003 show lower bioclassifications than data observed from 1996 through 1999. The lower bioclassifcations may be the result of significant fluctuations in stream flow and the possible influence of Forney Creek. • The fish community in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks has been monitored since 1989 and is typical for Piedmont streams in Lincoln County, North Carolina. The LCTS fish community represents nine families and encompasses a range of trophic groups including herbivores, insectivores, omnivores, and piscivores. The fish species present are consistent with those documented by other sources and include no threatened or endangered species. - • Streams in the vicinity of LCTS support a relatively low percentage of pollution tolerant individuals, several pollution intolerant species, and a desirable distribution of species from various trophic guilds. The fish community in Anderson and Killian Creeks has exhibited no visible impact from LCTS on the number of fish species or fish biomass during construction and numerous years of operation. Most of the fish community changes that have been noted are probably attributable to WWTP operations and/or development related disturbances in the Forney Creek watershed. Because the fish community in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks is characterized by species diversity, low percentages of pollution tolerant individuals, trophic level diversity, and sustainability through time, it is concluded that there is a balanced, indigenous fish community in the creeks adjacent to LCTS. ii LIST OF TABLES PAGE Table 1-1 Description of biological sampling locations around the LCTS 1-2 in Lincoln County, NC.

The objective of this on-going monitoring program is to provide data to assess balanced and indigenous populations with respect to operation of LCTS and evaluate renewal of the station National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit NC0080781. The Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station is located approximately 18 mi northwest of Charlotte in Lincoln County, North Carolina. Stream stretches of Anderson and Killian Creeks border the 711-acre LCTS site in the Catawba River basin (Hydrologic Unit 03050102). The sixteen independent simple cycle combustion turbine units have a combined nameplate capacity of 1152 MW. Each unit is rated at 72 MW. The water intake and discharge structures of LCTS are located on Killian Creek. Withdrawal and discharge of water occurs intermittently corresponding to operation cycles of LCTS to help meet customer electricity needs during peak demand times. Reviews of past studies by regulators have determined that the intake and discharge of water by LCTS assures the protection and propagation of balanced, indigenous populations in the adjacent creeks of the Catawba River basin (Duke Power 1990 and 2001). This report presents data collected from 2000 through 2003 (2000 Fish data was reported in the previous report). Also these data were compared with other past and present on-going environmental monitoring programs conducted in this watershed. LITERATURE CITED Duke Power Company. 1990.

Sample locations in the vicinity of Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station. Duke Power historical sample location designations are listed in parentheses. 1-3 CHAPTER 2 STATION OPERATION BACKGROUND INFORMATION The study area comprises a portion of Catawba River Sub-basin 33, in the southeastern corner of Lincoln County, NC. Anderson and Forney Creeks are first-order streams that ultimately combine with Killian Creek above and below, respectively, the Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station (LCTS) site. Killian Creek in turn is a tributary of Dutchmans Creek, which flows into the Catawba River at upper Lake Wylie in Mt Holly, NC. The Lincoln County portion of the watershed is primarily forested, although suburban development near the Highway 73 corridor, which transects the streams upstream of LCTS, has accelerated in the last several years. Streams in this area are typically low-gradient with steep banks, and sandy substrates are common. LCTS is the only NPDES-permitted facility on Killian Creek. Permitted discharges to Forney Creek include the Forney Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, and a granite quarry operated by B.V. Hedrick-Lowesville. Water quality of streams in this area is typified by low nutrient concentrations, but highly variable turbidity and concentrations of solids, depending on stream stage and recent precipitation history. Total alkalinity(23 —45 mg/L as CaCO3) and pH (6.6 — 7.8 SU) show relatively little temporal variability. Specific conductance has varied somewhat from sampling to sampling, with historical values in the range of 67— 126 µS/cm reported by Duke Power (1990), and more recently, values up to 131 µS/cm reported by NCDENR (2003). Water quality monitoring prior to construction of LCTS showed turbidity and concentrations of iron and copper occasionally exceeding state water quality standards or action levels in upper Killian Creek(Duke Power 1990). Water withdrawal from, and discharge to, Killian Creek by LCTS occurs intermittently based on customer electrical demand for station operation. Per agreement with NCDENR, water can only be withdrawn from Killian Creek when flows are above 7Q10, estimated as 2.28 cfs (Duke Power 1990). Also, no more than 25% of the Killian Creek flow can be withdrawn at any time, with maximum withdrawal capped at 10 cfs (6.46 mgd). 2-1 The flow of Killian Creek at LCTS is monitored at a United States Geological Survey (USGS) gaging station (USGS 0214269560, Killian Creek near Mariposa, NC). The gage was installed in 1990 on the opposite bank of the creek from the LCTS intake structure, approximately 1,000 ft upstream from the confluence with Forney Creek (Figure 1-1). The period of record for the gage spans all operational years for LCTS. Because this gage was designed to assist in the quantification of critical low flow conditions, data from periodic high flow events exceeding the gage height(643.08 ft msl) are not available for this site. The LCTS intake structure consists of a concrete chute and an adjacent sump in which pumps are mounted. The threshold elevation between the chute and the sump prevents Killian Creek water from entering the sump during periods of critical low stream flow. Following operation of LCTS units, water withdrawn at the intake structure is pumped to the raw water storage pond, as needed to replenish the water supply for future operation. The capacity of the raw water storage pond is approximately 153 acre-ft. An annual report detailing the date and volume of water withdrawn by LCTS and respective Killian Creek flow is provided to NCDENR. The LCTS wastewater treatment system receives discharge from station sumps and a clarifier, and neutralized effluent from a demineralizer regeneration waste tank. Effluent is collected in the inlet distribution channel and routed to one of two basins. Each basin provides an estimated 24 hours of retention for settling of suspended solids and removal of any entrained oil. The pH of the effluent can be adjusted prior to discharge by the addition of acid or caustic. Operation of the waste water recycle pump ensures thorough mixing prior to discharge. After pH adjustment, the effluent is discharged to Killian Creek downstream of the LCTS intake structure. The effluent is sampled and results of analyses are submitted monthly to NCDENR, as required by the NPDES permit of LCTS. OPERATION DATA Killian Creek flows were substantially impacted by the mid-1998 through 2002 regional drought, culminating in severe flow reductions in summer and early fall 2002 (USGS 2004; Figures 2-1 and 2-2). Median monthly flows for the period June through September 2002 were less than the 7Q10 flow for the monitoring site. Results of monitoring by NCDENR in 2002 implicated low stream flows in this sub-basin as a cause of declines in fish species 2-2 diversity, as well as increased abundance of pollution tolerant macroinvertebrate taxa in Killian Creek. Stream width for Killian Creek at the SR1157 site (Location D) was reduced from a typical 7 to 10 meters, to 4 meters at the time of sampling by NCDENR (NCDENR 2003). LCTS water withdrawals from Killian Creek occurred on 113 days during 2000—2003, or on 7.9 % of the available days. The maximum daily withdrawal rate monitored and reported to NCDENR was 4.39 cfs (1971 gpm), occurring over a six-hour period on December 25, 2000. The volume of water withdrawn by LCTS remained well within the limitations of the agreement with NCDENR. The discharge of wastewater by LCTS occurred on 118 of 1,429 days (< 8.3 % of days) during 2000 — 2003. Wastewater discharges by volume averaged 5.6 % of the average daily stream flow for Killian Creek during 2000 — 2003. Annual average mixing ratios for LCTS wastewater discharges into the receiving stream over this period were: 2.9 % (2000); 2.3% (2001); 23.4% (2002); and 0.8% (2003). At the peak of the drought, in the summer of 2002, Killian Creek stream flow fell substantially below the 7Q10, and measured flow approached zero for an extended period in August 2002. Wastewater discharged from LCTS briefly dominated the flow of Killian Creek, particularly for two dates; August 1 and August 9, 2002 (Figure 2-3). Following appreciable rainfall and restoration of groundwater elevations in the latter part of 2002 and 2003, stream flow and wastewater mixing ratios returned to more typical levels.

Annual bioassessment sampling was conducted in late July or early August of each year to assess potential effects of the operation of LCTS on macroinvertebrate communities in Killian Creek. The standard qualitative method as outlined in the North Carolina-Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) was used in collecting samples from Locations A, B, C, D, and G (Table 1-1 and Figure 1-1). This method involves the use of a variety of nets to sample the major habitats available at a particular location. Organisms are sorted from debris in the field, and identified to the lowest practicable taxon in the laboratory. Analysis results in a bioclassification for each location which gives equal consideration to the number of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) taxa present and the biotic index value. The biotic index value is calculated for all taxa collected from the same location. Biologists with NCDENR have assigned biotic index values for benthic taxa based on their relative tolerance to environmental perturbations. A score is assigned to the EPT value and to the mean biotic index. The mean of these two scores is used to assign one of five bioclassifications, from Poor to Excellent (NCDENR 2003). The assessment of the balanced and indigenous nature of the benthic community is determined by comparing EPT abundance and biotic index values at locations upstream of, adjacent to, and downstream of LCTS. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Bioclassi fication The bioclassifications assigned based on analysis of the macroinvertebrates collected in 2000 through 2003 at LCTS Locations A, B, C, D, and G ranged from "Poor" to "Good-Fair" (Figure 3-1). Typically, Location A had a bioclassification similar to Location .B,_then a gradual decrease in bioclassification was observed at Location C, and Location D typically had the highest bioclassification. In comparison to the other sampling sites, the Forney Creek sampling location (Location G) had the lowest bioclassification each year, with steadily 3-1 decreasing bioclassifications from 2000 through 2003. Factors influencing the low bioclassification at Location G may have also impacted the bioclassification at Location C, the immediate downstream location. Results at all locations from 2000 through 2003 show lower bioclassifications than data observed from 1996 through 1999. Total Taxa and EPT Taxa Similar increases and decreases were observed in the number of total taxa and number of EPT taxa collected (Figures 3-2 and 3-3 and Appendix Tables A-1 through A-5). The total taxa collected at Location A were typically greater than or equal to those collected at Location B except in 2000 when Location B had more total taxa present than Location A. Total taxa collected at Location C were generally equal to Location B except in 2000 when Location B was greater. Total taxa at Location D generally increased relative to upstream locations. Total taxa observed were generally lowest at Location G every summer from 2000 through 2003. There was a general trend observed in EPT taxa with higher numbers at Location A, lower numbers at Locations B and C, and then an increase at Location D. The exception occurred in 2000 when EPT taxa at Location B exceeded the number observed at Location A. The Forney Creek location (Location G) exhibited the lowest numbers of EPT taxa during all years from 2000 through 2003. There were some occasions when locations had the same taxa present every year. These taxa are highlighted in Appendix A, Tables A-1 through A-5. The most commonly found taxa throughout the 2000 through 2003 study included: Macronychus glabratus, Stenonema modestum, Cheumatopsyche spp., Gomphus spp., and Boyeria vinosa. Water Quality Dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and temperature were measured for the first time in 2003 and will continue to be monitored during annual macroinvertebrate sampling. Dissolved oxygen ranged from 8.0 mg/L to 9.2 mg/L, conductivity measurements ranged from 69.9 µS/cm to 188.5 µS/cm, and the water temperature ranged from 67.6°F (19.8°C) to 68.7°F (20.4°C) (Table 3-1). There was a general increase in conductivity with downstream direction among the sample locations. Forney Creek (Location G) appeared to be a source of 3-2 substantially greater conductivity water, most likely attributable to upstream wastewater imputs. Flow Based on comparisons of annual macroinvertebrate collections from 2000 through 2003 with previous annual collections from Locations A, B, C, D, and G, stream flow appeared to be a major influence on macroinvertebrate communities (Figure 3-4). Reduced flow associated with drought conditions that existed during the summers of 2000 through 2002 created poorer sampling habitat than that sampled in pre-drought years (Table 3-2). Leaf-packs, root masses, and riffle areas may have existed during the time of sample collection but it is important to note that water levels were so low during 2000 through 2002 that normally submerged habitat may have been exposed for an extended period of time. In contrast, water levels were high in 2003, creating flood conditions which scoured sampling habitat and created erosion along creek banks. Forney Creek The influence of Forney Creek (Location G) on the Killian Creek macroinvertebrate communities is a distinct possibility leading to the lower taxa richness and EPT taxa at Location C. During 2000 through 2002 Forney Creek had a gray color in comparison to Killian Creek. In 2003 the water color was even more dissimilar. There appeared to be fine gray silt (i.e., cement fines left in the stream from the observed quarry incident in 1997) suspended in the water and a notable amount of silt was still observed in the substrate. CONCLUSION Macroinvertebrate monitoring results from LCTS 2000 through 2003 suggest that Forney Creek and fluctuations in stream flow may be influencing Killian Creek macroinvertebrate communities. A consistent pattern exists in bioclassifications observed during the 2000 through 2003 study period. In every instance both the control site (Location A) and the first LCTS site on Killian Creek (Location B) have comparable bioclassifications and both locations have higher bioclassifications than the Forney Creek location (Location G). The sampling location below the confluence of Forney Creek with Killian Creek (Location C) tends to have a bioclassification higher than Location G but not as high as Locations A and B, which indicates Forney Creek may have an impact on Killian Creek. However, the Killian 3-3 Creek benthic communities appear to recover at some point upstream of the sampling location below LCTS (Location D). In comparison to all the other sampling sites, Location D had the highest bioclassification during three of four sampling periods.

We concur with your request. The modified wording regarding quarterly sampling in Part I.A. (1.) and (2.) is more appropriate, given the episodic nature of the discharge. Please find enclosed the revised effluent page,which should be inserted into your permit. The old page may then be discarded. All other terms and conditions contained in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. This permit modification is issued under the requirements of North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. If any parts,measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit modification are unacceptable to you,you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center,Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-6714).

After a review of the permit file,it was decided that no modification of the permit was necessary. However, this letter is designed to clarify the points you raised. The Division's responses to your points are as follows: > Quarterly samples for BOD5,Total Suspended Solids,NH3 as N and Oil& Grease may be collected • in the same months as those specified for your toxicity samples (March,June,September and December). It is not required that you monitor during those months only,but merely once each calendar quarter (see below). The monitoring schedule you propose is acceptable to the Division. > Calendar quarters are defined at Part II.A. 6. g. of your permit. This definition of calendar quarters is standard for all NPDES permits, and does not require modification. Your proposed monitoring schedule does not conflict with the existing definition of calendar quarters. > Your proposal for DMR submittal during months with no discharge is acceptable. This procedure is already in effect for toxicity test results (see Part I. A. (2.)). If you have any questions concerning this permit modification,please contact Charles Weaver of the NPDES Unit at (919) 733-5083, extension 511. Sincerely, Gregory J.

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 23%. 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 March,June, September and December. 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. (continued on next page) Permit NC008078 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT—Quarterly (continued) 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 Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch 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(Al) 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 Branch 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. 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. Pry PART I (continued) Section B. Schedule of Compliance 1. The permittee shall comply with Final Effluent Limitations specified for discharges in accordance with the following schedule: Permittee shall comply with Final Effluent Limitations by the effective date of the permit unless specified below. 2.

No later than 14 calendar days following a date identified in the above schedule of compliance, the permittee shall submit either a report of progress or, in the case of specific actions being required by identified dates, a written notice of compliance or noncompliance. In the latter case, the notice shall include the cause of noncompliance, any remedial actions taken, and the probability of meeting the next schedule requirements. 41441111 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS SECTION A. DEFINITIONS 1. Permit Issuing Authority: The Director of the Division of Water Quality. 2. DEM or"the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality,Department of Environment and Natural Resources. 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 sampled and measured,divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as"Monthly Average"in Part I of the permit. b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled 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 sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured,divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average"in Part I of the permit. 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration,"other than for fecal coliforrn bacteria,is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under"Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. Part II Pr Page 2 of 11 6.b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under"Other Limits"in Part I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. 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. e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as"daily average"in the text of Part I. f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation"in the text of Part I of the permit. g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods:January through March,April through June,July through September,and October through December. 7. Other Measurements a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs continually 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. 8. Types of Samples a. Composite Sample:A composite sample shall consist of: (1) 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 Part I Page 3 of 11 8. a. (2) 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 present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system,or (3) a single,continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no greater 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 time intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less than four(4) during a 24-hour sampling period. 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. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the receiving waters. 9. Calculation of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean,values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one(1). c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. 10. Calendar Day: A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit,any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. 11. Hazardous Substance: A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. 12. Toxic Pollutant: A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS I.

Permit Modification.Revocation and Reissuance.or Termination The issuance of this permit does not prohibit the permit issuing authority from reopening and modifying the permit,revoking and reissuing the permit, or terminating the permit as allowed by the laws,rules,and regulations contained in Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 122 and 123; Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code,Subchapter 2H .0100;and North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 et.al. 14. Previous Permits All previous National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permits issued to this facility, whether for operation or discharge, are hereby revoked by issuance of this permit. [The exclusive authority to operate this facility arises under this permit. The authority to operate the facility under previously issued permits bearing this number is no longer effective. ] The conditions, requirements, terms, and provisions of this permit authorizing discharge under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System govern discharges from this facility. SECTION C. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF POLLUTION CONTROLS 1. Certified Operator Pursuant to Chapter 90A-44 of North Carolina General Statutes, and upon classification of the facility by the Certification Commission, the permittee shall employ a certified wastewater treatment plant operator in responsible charge (ORC) 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 by the Certification Commission. The permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type and any grade to comply with the conditions of Title 15A NCAC Chapter 8G .0200. The ORC of the facility must visit each Class I facility at least weekly and each Class II, III, and IV facility at least daily, excluding weekends and holidays,and must properly manage and document daily operation and maintenance of the facility and must comply with all other conditions of Title 15A,NCAC Chapter 8G .0200. Once the facility is classified, the permittee shall submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates the operator in responsible charge within thirty days after the wastewater treatment facilities are 50%complete. 2. Proper Operation and Maintenance The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems which are installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. 3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this permit. 4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities a. Definitions (1) "Bypass" means 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. (2) "Severe property damage" means 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 does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. Part II Page 7 of 11 4.b. Bypass not exceeding limitations. The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded,but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c.and d. of this section. c. Notice (1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part II, E. 6.of this permit. (24 hour notice). d. Prohibition of Bypass (1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass, unless: (A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life,personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance;and (C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects,if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section. 5. Upsets a. Definition: "Upset" means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error,improperly designed treatment facilities,inadequate treatment facilities,lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. b. Effect of an upset: An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset,and before an action for noncompliance,is final administrative action subject to judicial review. c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset: A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed,contemporaneous operating logs,or other relevant evidence that: (1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset; (2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated;and (3)The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II,E. 6. (b) (B) of this permit. (4)The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II,B.2.of this permit. d. Burden of proof: In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof. Part II Frr Page 8of11 6. Removed Substances Solids, sludges, filter backwash,or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and 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. The permittee shall comply with all existing federal regulations governing the disposal of sewage sludge. Upon promulgation of 40 CFR Part 503, any permit issued by the Permit Issuing Authority for the utilization/disposal of sludge may be reopened and modified, or revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable requirements at 40 CFR Part 503. The permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part 503 Standards for the Use and Disposal of Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the time provided in the regulation, even if the permit is not modified to incorporate the requirement. The permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant change in its sludge use or disposal practices. 7. Power Failures The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by DEM Regulation, Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H, .0124 Reliability, to prevent the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated wastes during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power sources, standby generators or retention of inadequately treated effluent. SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS 1. Representative Sampling Samples collected and measurements taken,as required herein,shall be characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples collected at a frequency less than daily shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge over the entire period which the sample represents. All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit and, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed without notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority. 2. Reporting Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and reported on a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form (DEM No. MR 1,1.1,2,3) or alternative forms approved by the Director,DEM,postmarked no later than the 30th day following the completed reporting period. The first DMR is due on the last day of the month following the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the commencement of discharge. Duplicate signed copies of these,and all other reports required herein,shall be submitted to the following address: NC DENR/ Division of Water Quality/Water Quality Section ATTENTION: Central Files 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1617 3. Flow Measurements Appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted scientific practices shall be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. The devices shall be installed, calibrated and maintained to ensure that the accuracy of the measurements are consistent with the accepted capability of that type of device. Devices selected shall be capable of measuring flows with a maximum deviation of less than 10% from the true discharge rates throughout the range of expected discharge volumes. Once-through condenser cooling water flow which is monitored by pump logs, or pump hour meters as specified in Part I of this permit and based on the manufacturer's pump curves shall not be subject to this requirement. Part II Page 9 of 11 4. Test Procedures Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations published pursuant to NCGS 143-215.63 et. seq, the Water and Air Quality Reporting Acts, 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; or in the case of sludge use or disposal, approved under 40 CFR 136, unless otherwise specified in 40 CFR 503,unless other test procedures have been specified in this permit. To meet the intent of the monitoring required by this permit, all test procedures must produce minimum detection and reporting levels that are below the permit discharge requirements and all data generated must be reported down to the minimum detection or lower reporting level of the procedure. If no approved methods are determined capable of achieving minimum detection and reporting levels below permit discharge requirements, then the most sensitive (method with the lowest possible detection and reporting level) approved method must be used. 5. Penalties for Tampering The Clean Water Act provides that any person who falsifies, tampers with,or knowingly renders inaccurate,any monitoring device or method required to be maintained under this permit shall,upon conviction,be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 per violation, or by imprisonment for not more than two years per violation, or by both. If a conviction of a person is for a violation committed after a first conviction of such person under this paragraph,punishment is a fine of not more than $20,000 per day of violation, or by imprisonment of not more than 4 years,or both. 6. Records Retention Except for records of monitoring information required by this permit related to the permittee's sewage sludge use and disposal activities,which shall be retained for a period of at least five years (or longer as required by 40 CFR 503), the permittee shall retain records of all monitoring information, including all calibration and maintenance records and all original strip chart recordings for continuous monitoring instrumentation, copies of all reports required by this permit, for a period of at least 3 years from the date of the sample, measurement, report or application. This period may be extended by request of the Director at any time. 7. Recording Results For each measurement or sample taken pursuant to the requirements of this permit, the permittee shall record the following information: a. The date,exact place,and time of sampling or measurements; b. The individual(s) who performed the sampling or measurements; c. The date(s) analyses were performed; d. The individual(s) who performed the analyses; e. The analytical techniques or methods used;and f. The results of such analyses. 8. Inspection and Entry The permittee shall allow the Director,or an authorized representative (including an authorized contractor acting as a representative of the Director), upon the presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law, to; a. Enter upon the permittee's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of this permit; b. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that must be kept under the conditions of this permit; c. Inspect at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and control equipment),practices, or operations regulated or required under this permit;and d.

Fir Part 11 Page 10 of 11 SECTION E REPORTING 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. 2. Planned Changes The permittee shall give notice to the Director as soon as possible of any planned physical alterations or additions to the permitted facility. Notice is required only when: a. The alteration or addition to a permitted facility may meet one of the criteria for determining whether a facility is a new source in 40 CFR Part 122.29 (b);or b. The alteration or addition could significantly change the nature or increase the quantity of pollutants discharged. This notification applies to pollutants which are subject neither to effluent limitations in the permit,nor to notification requirements under 40 CFR Part 122.42(a) (1). c. The alteration or addition results in a significant change in the permittee's sludge use or disposal practices, and such alternation, addition or change may justify the application of permit conditions that are different from or absent in the existing permit, including notification of additional use or disposal sites not reported during the permit application process or not reported pursuant to an approved land application plan. 3. Anticipated Noncompliance The permittee shall give advance notice to the Director of any planned changes in the permitted facility or activity which may result in noncompliance with permit requirements. 4.

Description of existing or substantially constructed WWT facilities: The existing WWT facilities consist of four(4) oil water separators followed by an aeration tank, a two (2) cell settling pond, and pH neutralization. The oil/water separators collect water from various turbine processes including miscellaneous piping leaks,wash down water, and stormwater runoff. The discharges from the four oil/water separators enter into an aeration tank, which collect wastewater from the turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump, and the vehicle wash. From the aeration basin, all wastewater flows into the two settling cells. The two settling cells receive wastewater from the combustion turbine sumps (see above) as well as the filtered water system and the demineralized water system. Discharges to the two settling cells is on a batch basis with the cells providing a common mixing point for all plant wastewater. Following treatment in the settling cells,neutralization is provided prior to discharge. f. Description of proposed WWT facilities: There are no proposed WWT facilities at this time. g. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: Chemicals that can be expected in the wastewater include: corrosion inhibitors,housekeeping chemicals, surfactants and defoamers, maintenance chemicals and degreasers, and water treatment chemicals (a list of all chemicals currently maintained on-site is included in the application).

Thank you for submitting this package. The permit renewal for this facility will be assigned to a member of the NPDES Unit staff. That staff member will contact you if further information is needed to complete the permit renewal. Please note that the NPDES Unit has several vacant positions. This staff shortage has lasted for over a year and is delaying all permit renewals. Our remaining permit writers are currently reviewing Authorizations to Construct, speculative limit requests, major permit modifications and 201 plan updates ahead of permit renewals. This is necessary due to a variety of factors, including mandatory deadlines in the statutes which govern our program. If this staff shortage delays reissuance of NC0080781 the existing requirements in your permit will remain in effect until the permit is renewed (or the Division takes other action). We appreciate your patience and understanding while we operate with a severely depleted staff.

The Lincoln facility serves as a primary source of power during peak demand periods, and also during times when energy from other sources may be unavailable. The greatest electrical demand is usually in the summer and winter months. Each combustion turbine can be operated independently and for extended periods of time, if necessary. Combustion turbines burn #2 low-sulfur oil or natural gas to heat compressed air, which expands and drives a turbine-generator to produce electricity. Construction of the LCT units was completed in March of 1996. On page 10 is a line drawing showing the water flow through LCT, indicating the source of intake water, operations contributing to the effluent, and the wastewater treatment provided. The estimated flows on the line drawing are representative of present station operation. The following is a brief narrative description of sources contributing to the wastewater effluent of outfall 001 . Intake Raw water is withdrawn from Killian Creek and stored in the 50 million gallon Raw Water Storage Pond. The pond is equipped with an overflow pipe to wetlands, which flows into Killian Creek. The raw water intake screens are sparged with air periodically to remove trapped creek debris. This debris is flushed back into the creek. Dredging of the intake is done periodically in accordance with the ACOE 404 permit (#199404202). From this pond, raw water is processed by the filtered water and demineralized water treatment systems in order to make pure service water for combustion turbine operations and plant processes. The wastewater and chemicals generated by these processes are discharged to the wastewater treatment system at the LCT site. Outfall 001 - System Description Outfall 001 discharges treated wastewater from the Wastewater Treatment (WT) system through a flume to Killian Creek below the LCT site. The WT system basin consists of two parallel concrete lined treatment cells (250,000 gallons each). The treatment basin provides a common mixing point for all site wastewater. Discharge from the basin is on a batch basis and is neutralized as needed while discharging. The wastewater treatment system provides settling and neutralization prior to discharge. This basin processes wastewater flows from the water treatment system and an aeration tank, which collects wastewater from four turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash. The total combined effluent from these sources is approximately 0.30 million gallons per day (MGD). Wastewater from the WT treatment system is discharged to Killian Creek at Outfall 001 . Ian!iary 01 • Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 3 of 10 Filtered Water System Flow from the Raw Water Storage Pond is directed to the filtered water system where it is treated for process use. The filtered water treatment system at LCT consists of a clarifier, three gravity sand filters and a clear well. Wastewater and raw water solids from the filtered water system are drained to the wastewater treatment basin, which provides settling treatment. Solids are periodically removed from the wastewater treatment ponds and properly disposed in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 and in a manner approved by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management. Clarifier The clarifier utilizes typical water treatment chemicals such as cationic polyelectrolyte, clay, and gaseous chlorine for the primary treatment of raw water. The sedimentation wastes collected in the clarifier consists of solids that were suspended in the service water. Just prior to the flash floc tank, gaseous chlorine is injected into the raw water. The cationic polyelectrolyte is added from a unit called a "Poly Flow". This unit receives dilution water from a filtered water compression skid and injects the polyelectrolyte into the flash floc tank. Also, the clay receives dilution water from the filtered water compression skid and the clay slurry is pumped into the flash floc tank. Approximately 110 gallons per year of polyelectrolyte may be used. The average volume of water required for desludging the clarifier is between 10,000 - 20,000 gallons per day. Typically, these sedimentation wastes (which consist of mud, silt, clay and flocculent precipitate) along with diluted water treatment chemicals and by-products, gravity flow from the bottom of the clarifier and are collected in the wastewater treatment basin. Gravity Filters There are three gravity sand filters composed of anthracite (coal) and sand, downstream of the clarifier in the water treatment process. Normally, each of these filters is backwashed two to five times each day during peak operation. Each backwash uses about 10,000 gallons of water. On the average, 90,000 gallons of backwash water is produced daily from filter backwashes. This wastewater drains to a cement trench that discharges to the wastewater treatment basins. The sand filter is changed on an as needed basis. The filtered water is stored in one of two 400,000 gallon filtered water tanks (A and B). Of this total volume of water, 300,000 gallons are designated for fire protection usage. laniiary nh • Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 4 of 10 Demineralized Water System The Demineralized Water System provides high purity water which is injected into the combustion turbines for nitrous oxide (NOx) control. The demin water is also used for miscellaneous plant usage such as housekeeping, turbine deck wash water and cooling water makeup. Activated Carbon Filters The Demineralized Water System includes three, 235 ft3 carbon filters. These filters are typically backwashed weekly. The amount of water required to backwash one of these filters is approximately 10,000 gallons of water per backwash. Backwashes may occur daily or weekly, depending on station operation. The carbon is replenished as needed and the spent carbon is routed to the wastewater treatment basin. Demineralizers There are three trains of resin bed regenerative demineralizers. Each train consists of one anion resin bed and one cation resin bed. Normally, one to three trains of demineralizers are in operation. The demineralized water produced is stored in two demineralized water storage tanks (A and B) which have a capacity of 1 .4 million gallons each. Regeneration of one anion/cation demineralizer train may occur as often as once per day. A typical regeneration of one train takes approximately 50,000 gallons of water. The amounts of required acid and caustic will vary as dictated by operational requirements. Wastewater from these regenerations is discharged to a 150,000 gallon neutralization tank. The wastewater is neutralized prior to discharge to the wastewater treatment basin. The acid and caustic used in the neutralization process are stored in day tanks. The acid day tank holds 380 gallons and the caustic day tank holds 730 gallons. In the event of a leak from the day tanks, the acid or caustic would be neutralized and drained to the wastewater treatment basins. The capacities of the bulk sulfuric acid and the sodium hydroxide tanks are 4,000 and 4,500 gallons respectively. Combustion Turbine Sumps The four turbine sumps are concrete structures which have two pumps per sump. These pumps are operated on an alternating basis. After a preselected time period, the controls are automatically cycled so the pump operation is swapped. The turbine sumps collect wastewater from four oil/water separators. These oil/water separators receive wastewater from various turbine processes, such as miscellaneous piping leaks, wash down water and stormwater runoff. This wastewater may contain small amounts of propylene glycol, lube oil and/or fuel oil as a result of piping leaks or false starts from the turbine. The Chemicals on Site list (page 8), lists additional chemicals presently being used at the station and lanuary 01 • Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County • NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 5 of 10 which may be present in the wastewater. Generically, these chemicals may be classified as: • Corrosion inhibitors • Housekeeping chemicals • Surfactants and defoamers • Maintenance chemicals and degreasers • Water treatment chemicals. The turbine sumps process approximately 90 GPD to 4,200 GPD of wastewater. The following are the waste streams that could be collected in the turbine sumps which have oil/water separators, with the exception of the residual compressor water wash which by-passes the oil/water separators: • Fuel oil from false starts • Lube oil leaks • Cooling water leaks •Turbine deck wash water • Fuel oil filter skid drains. Fuel Oil From False Starts A starting turbine may not get an ignition flame on the first attempt. As a result, the engine has to be shut down and the combustion chamber fuel drained prior to a system restart. Lube Oil Leaks Intermittent lube oil piping leaks may occur on each combustion turbine during normal operation. When the combustion turbine decks are periodically hosed down with water as part of the housekeeping practices, these trace amounts of oil are flushed to the oil/water separator. Cooling Water Leaks Intermittent cooling water leaks may occur around the cooling water system pressure fitting gaskets. This amount is usually very small. These leaks contain propylene glycol and a corrosion inhibitor. Turbine Deck Wash Water During normal operation, the combustion turbines or their decks are periodically washed with water for housekeeping purposes. This volume is approximately 200 to 400 gallons. Fuel Oil Filter Skid Drains Fuel oil filter skids are located in the turbine yard separately from the combustion turbines. There is a filter skid for each combustion turbine. Each skid area is curbed and furnished with a yard drain. Rain water washes trace amounts of oil to these drains which lead to the oil/water separator. January, 01 • • Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 6 of 10 Aeration tank wastewater The aeration tank receives wastewater from the turbine yard sumps, maintenance/warehouse sump and vehicle wash. The maintenance/warehouse sump and the vehicle wash are received via an oil/water separator. In the aeration tank the waste is mixed with activated sludge and aerated to reduce the total organic carbon content. • Wastewater Treatment Basin Operation Presently, the wastewater treatment basin is receiving wastewater streams from those sources listed in the following sections of this Supplemental Information: Filtered Water System, Demineralized Water System, and Combustion Turbine Sumps. Compressor Wash Water The interior and blades of each turbine compressor is water washed normally once per year. Approximately 3,000 to 3,500 gallons of water is used to perform this turbine blade washing. This water drains directly to the turbine sumps. When this procedure is being performed, the sump pumps are isolated and the sump acts as a collection point for this wastewater. The wash water is pumped and hauled to a permitted disposal facility. Stormwater (SW) SW runoff is diverted into six different drainage systems. SW systems are as follows: SW 001 • Transformer skid oil/water separator • Runoff from transformer skids • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 002 • North side runoff (Combustion Turbine Units 1 - 8 ) • Drains to the raw water storage pond, which over flows to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 003 • Warehouse receiving area (small area) • Drains to open area at East end of site SW 004 • East side runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek SW 005 • South side runoff (Combustion Turbine Units 9 - 16) • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek January, 01 • Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 7 of 10 SW 006 • Oil spill containment basin oil/water separator • Used oil storage tank skid runoff • Fuel oil unloading pad runoff • Oil spill containment basin runoff • Drains to wetlands then to Killian Creek. Various herbicides and pesticides are applied on the site by a vendor. These applications are applied in compliance with manufacturers' guidelines by licensed applicators. Drinking Water Drinking water is supplied to the site from two wells. The site is not on the State's drinking water database because it does not meet the minimum personnel requirements. Sanitary System Sanitary wastes from the plant are treated by a 2,000 gallon septic tank. Sanitary effluent is pumped by a lift station from the discharge chamber of the septic tanks to a leachate field for final treatment. Based on annual data, the average daily flow to the leachate field has been approximately 750 gallons per day. The sanitary system is permitted by Lincoln County. Spill Prevention The LCT has two 5.5 million gallon above ground fuel oil storage tanks. Each above ground oil tank at LCT was designed with secondary containment which is capable of containing the entire contents of both tanks. This station has both an SPCC (Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures) plan as well as a FRP (Facility Response Plan) as specified in Federal regulations 40 CFR 112. Detailed listings of oil sources at this station are kept current in both the SPCC and FRP plans. • January, 01 ` Lincoln Combustion Turbine, Lincoln County NPDES Permit No.NC0080781 Page 8 of 10 Chemicals on Site Cleaning Chemicals Maintenance Chemicals Germicidal Spray and Wipe Fuel Oil Rugbee Foam Shampoo Lube Oil M&S Liquid Deodorant Turbo Clean Ardrox 6367 Simple Green CT-414 Degreaser Pine Power CRC Heavy Duty Degreaser Ultra Clean Propylene Glycol Fantastic Betz Powerline 3201 Formula 409 Sodium Chloride (brine soak demin) On&On Floor Wax Hydrogen Peroxide (sand filter disinfection) Emulsifiable Stripper Alum Taski P44 Defoamer Tap Magic (cutting fluid) Di-Electric Solvent Chemistry Reagents SC trim 210 Citric Acid Solution Nalco-8105 Polymer Amino Acid F Reagent Solution Coagulant Aid (Clay) Molybdate Reagent Propanol DPD Chlorine Reagent Ammonium Hydroxide Potassium Hydrogen Phthalate ( toc std) pH buffers - 4, 7, 10 Formazin, 4000 NTU CAN Titration Solution Ferroin Indicator This is a list of typical chemicals located at LCT and is not inclusive.

The objective of this on-going monitoring program is to provide data to assess balanced and indigenous populations with respect to operation of LCTS and evaluate renewal of the Station NPDES permit NC0080781. • From 1990 through 1999, the minimum monthly flow of Killian Creek occurred in 11 of 12 months in 1999 with the lowest flow of 3.77 cfs (2.44 mgd) in September 1999. The volume of water withdrawn by LCTS was well within the limitations of the agreement with NCDENR. In addition, the design of the LCTS intake structure assured continuous stream flow in Killian Creek. • The discharge of waste water by LCTS occurred on 294 of 2465 days (<12%) from • October 1994 through October 2000. The maximum number of days that waste water was discharged was 18 days in June 1998 and corresponded to the maximum monthly total volume of waste water discharged (3.164 mg). The volume of waste water discharged ranged from 0.005 mgd on February 15, 1995 to 0.412 mgd on August 4, 1995. No adverse impact associated with discharge of waste water by LCTS was observed. • All the macroinvertebrate bioclassifications were Good-Fair or Good except for that from Forney Creek in 1995 when it was Fair. The highest number of Ephemeroptera+Plecoptera+Trichoptera (EPT) taxa was found below LCTS every year except 1997 (the same high number was collected below and above LCTS in 1998). There was no consistency among locations in terms of the biotic index scores except that they indicated the Forney Creek macroinvertebrate community was the most tolerant to pollution every year of the study. • The fish community in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks is typical for Piedmont streams in Lincoln County, North Carolina, and is similar to that reported from other • studies. The fish community near LCTS represents seven families and encompasses a • range of trophic groups including planktivores, insectivores, specialized insectivores, omnivores, and piscivores. • Pollution tolerant species .comprise an extremely small component of the fish community in streams near LCTS. The fish community has exhibited no 'visible impact on the number of fish species or fish biomass during construction and operation of LCTS. Comparison of LCTS operation and environmental monitoring data indicate that balanced and indigenous populations continue to exist in Killian Creek in the vicinity of LCTS and supports renewal of the LCTS NPDES permit. • • ii • LIST OF TABLES PAGE Table 2-1 Stream flow of Killian Creek 2-3 Table 3-1 Description of macroinvertebrate sample locations 3-6 Table 3-2 Macroinvertebrate bioassessment results 3-7 • Table 3-3 Total number and species composition of fish from 1989 to 2000 3-8 Table 3-4 Total number of fish species collected from 1989 to 2000 3-9 Table 3-5 Estimate fish biomass collected from 1989 to 2000 3-10 • • iii • LIST OF FIGURES PAGE Figure 1-1 Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station study area ' 1-2 Figure 2-1 Number of discharge days and volume waste water discharged/month 2-4 Figure 2-2 Daily volume of waste water discharged for 294 days by LCTS 2-5 Figure 3-1 Macroinvertebrate bioassessment results by year 3-11 Figure 3-2 Macroinvertebrate bioassessment results by location 3-12 Figure 3-3 Fish biomass at Location 748.0 3-13 Figure 3-4 Fish biomass at•Location 743.0 3-13 • Figure 3-5 Fish biomass at Location 742.0 3-14 Figure 3-6 Fish biomass at Location 740.0 3-14 Figure 3-7 Fish biomass at three locations in Forney Creek 3-15 • iv • CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Per agreement with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), annual monitoring of macroinvertebrates and fish at selected locations in Anderson, Killian, and Forney Creeks of the Catawba River basin has continued since the initial request to construct in Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station(LCTS) in 1990 (Figure 1- 1). The objective of this on-going monitoring program is to provide data to assess balanced and indigenous populations with respect to operation of LCTS and evaluate renewal of the Station NPDES permit(NC0080781). The Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station is located approximately 18 mi northwest of Charlotte in Lincoln County, North Carolina (Figure 1-1). Stream stretches of Anderson and Killian Creeks border the 711 acre LCTS site in the Catawba River basin (Hydrologic Unit 03050102). The sixteen independent simple cycle combustion turbine units have a combined nameplate capacity of 1152 MW. Each unit is rated at 72 MW. The water intake and • discharge structures of LCTS are located on Killian Creek. Withdrawal and discharge of water occurs intermittently corresponding to operation cycles of LCTS to help meet customer electricity needs during peak demand times. Review of past studies by regulators have determined that the intake and discharge of water by LCTS assures the protection and propagation of a balanced, indigenous populations in the adjacent creeks of the Catawba River basin (Duke Power Company 1990). This report presents data collected from 1990 through 2000. Also these data were compared with other past and present on-going environmental monitoring programs conducted in this watershed.

Per agreement with NCDENR, water can only be withdrawn from Killian Creek when flows are above 7Q10 (estimated as 2.28 cfs), and no more than 25%of the flow can be withdrawn with a maximum withdrawal of 10 cfs (6.46 mgd). The flow of Killian Creek is monitored at USGS gage #0214269560 that was installed in 1990 near the intake of LCTS and on the opposite bank, 1,000 ft upstream from Forney Creek (Figure 1-1). The intake structure consists'of a concrete chute and an attached sump in which pumps are mounted. The threshold between the sump and the chute prevents water from Killian Creek entering the sump during periods of low stream flow. Following operation of LCTS units, water withdrawn at the intake structure is pumped to the raw water storage pond, as needed to • replenish the water supply for future operation. The capacity of the raw water storage pond is approximately 50 mg and covers approximately 9.5 acres. An annual report detailing the date and volume of water withdrawn by LCTS and respective Killian Creek flow is sent to NCDENR. The waste water treatment system receives discharge from LCTS sumps, clarifier, and demineralizer neutralization tank. Effluent is collected in the inlet distribution channel and routed to one of two basins. Each basin provides an estimated 24 hours of retention for settling of suspended solids and removal of any entrained oil. The pH of the effluent can be adjusted prior to discharge by the addition of acid or caustic. Operation of the waste water recycle pump ensures thorough mixing prior to discharge. After pH adjustment, the effluent is discharged to Killian Creek downstream of the LCTS intake structure (Figure 1-1). The waste water effluent is sampled and analysis submitted monthly to NCDENR as required by the NPDES permit of LCTS. • 2-1 • OPERATION DATA From October 1990 through September 1999, the minimum monthly flow of Killian Creek occurred in 11 of 12 months in 1999 with the lowest flow of 3.77 cfs (2.44 mgd) in September 1999 (Table 2-1). The maximum daily average withdrawal from Killian'Creek monitored and reported to NCDENR was 1.32 cfs (0.852 mgd). The volume of water withdrawn by LCTS was well within the limitations of the agreement with NCDENR. The design of the LCTS intake structure assures continuous stream flow in Killian Creek. The discharge of waste water by LCTS occurred on 294 of 2465 days (<12%) from October 1994 through October 2000 (Figure 2-1), The maximum number of days that waste water was discharged was 18 days in June 1998 and corresponded to the maximum monthly total volume of waste water discharged(3.164 mg). The volume of waste water discharged ranged from 0.005 mgd on February 15, 1995 to 0.412 mgd on August 4, 1995 (Figure 2-2). No adverse environmental impact associated with discharge of waste water by LCTS was observed. III LITERATURE CITED Duke Power Company. 1990.

N t_n • • CHAPTER 3 BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION MACROINVERTEBRATES Methods and Materials Macroinvertebrate samples were collected in the vicinity of the Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station (LCTS) in August of each year from 1991 through 1999. Four locations were sampled in 1991, 1992, and 1993. Three were in Killian Creek below the project at Old Plank Road (SR 1511), and in the project area immediately below and above the confluence with Forney Creek. The fourth sampling location was in Forney Creek immediately above the confluence with Killian Creek. A fifth location above the project in Anderson Creek was added in 1994, about one mile above its confluence with Killian Creek. The two streams are very similar in terms of habitat and substrate (Table 3-1). Samples collected in 1992 were not identified due to a problem with preservation. The bioassessment protocol developed by North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) biologists • was used to collect samples and compare communities at the two locations and assign bioclassifications. These bioclassifications are based on scores assigned for the number of Ephemeroptera+ Plecoptera+ Trichoptera (EPT) taxa, and the scores for the weighted mean biotic index for all taxa (NCDEHNR 1997). The biotic index scores for individual taxa are assigned by NCDENR biologists, and are an indication of each taxon's sensitivity to pollution. Results and Discussion All the bioclassifications were Good-Fair or Good except for that from Forney Creek in 1995 when it was Fair (Table 3-1, Figures 3-1 and 3-2, Appendix Tables A-1 through A-8). Overall bioclassifications tended to be lower for Forney Creek samples and higher for samples collected below LCTS. The highest number of EPT taxa was found below LCTS every year except 1997 (the same high number was collected below and above LCTS in 1998). In 1997 below LCTS, the portion of the stream bank adjacent to the pipeline crossing had been tilled and was still bare of vegetation at the time of sampling. Silt at that sample location was more prevalent than usual in 1997, and this probably explains the historically low number of EPT there. There was no consistency among location in terms of the biotic • index scores except that they indicated the Forney Creek macroinvertebrate community was the most tolerant to pollution every year of the study. 3-1 • The results of the macroinvertebrate monitoring do not reveal any effects from the operation of LCTS. FISH Methods and Materials Fish were collected at seven stream locations in the vicinity of the Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station (LCTS) in late August or early September from 1990 through 2000. Collection locations and techniques were similar to those used in 1989 (Duke Power Company 1990). Fish were collected with backpack electrofishing equipment and population numbers were estimated with multiple pass depletion methodology (Raleigh and Short 1981). One or two electrofishing units were used, based on stream width, to achieve adequate coverage. Stream segments were approximately 100 m long and were measured for total length and width (every 10 m) to calculate the area sampled (hectares). To prevent fish • movement into or out of the stream reach during sampling, the sample segments were blocked with nets at the upstream and downstream ends. All collected fish were identified, weighed (g), and measured (mm). Large fish were released well downstream of the sample area and small fish were preserved in 10% formalin for taxonomic identification in the laboratory. Generally, three electrofishing passes were sufficient to achieve depletion of the resident fish populations, although additional passes were occasionally required. Water temperature (°C) was measured at each location with a calibrated thermister. Dissolved oxygen concentration (mg/L) was measured at each location with a dissolved oxygen probe or by chemical titration. Sampling locations consisted of one location downstream from the LCTS at the Plank Road (SR 1511) crossing over Killian Creek (Location 740.0); one location on Killian Creek adjacent to the LCTS property and below the confluence with Forney Creek (Location 742.0); one location on Killian Creek adjacent to the LCTS property and above the confluence with Forney Creek (Location 743.0); one location on Forney Creek just above the confluence with Killian Creek and adjacent to a rock quarry (Location 746.0); two locations on the upper end of Forney Creek just below and above the Forney Creek Wastewater • Treatment Plant (Locations 747.0 and 747.1, respectively); and an upstream reference site (Location 748.0)on Anderson Creek,prior to entering the LCTS property (Figure 1-1). • 3-2 • The population size for each species was calculated with the MicroFish Program, Version 3.0 (Van Deventer and Platts 1989). The average weight of an individual fish and the total weight for the estimated population of each species were calculated. Fish population numbers and weight were adjusted for stream area to provide density and biomass information. Individual species biomasses were combined for total fish biomass at each location. Numbers of fish species, exclusive of hybrid complexes, are also presented. Results and Discussion A diverse fish community was present in the stream environments in the vicinity of the LCTS. From 1990 through 2000, 36 species and two hybrid combinations, representing seven families, were collected by electrofishing, compared with 27 species and two hybrid combinations representing the same seven families in 1989 (Table 3-3 and Duke Power Company 1990). From 1990 through 2000, electrofishing catches were numerically dominated by cyprinids, followed in descending order by centrarchids, cyprinodonts, ictalurids, catostomids, percids, and clupeids. This order of family abundance was similar to • that found in 1989 except that the position of ictalurids and percids was reversed. These families encompass a range of trophic groups including planktivores, insectivores, specialized insectivores, omnivores, and piscivores. The common carp was the only species collected in 1989 that was not collected from 1990 to 2000. The ten additional species collected from 1990 to 2000 included the yellowfin shiner, swallowtail shiner, fathead minnow, snail bullhead, white catfish, channel catfish, green sunfish, pumpkinseed, redear sunfish, and yellow perch and represented a very minor component (< 0.4%) of the collected individuals. No rare or endangered species were taken in the vicinity of the LCTS project from 1989 through 2000. Pollution tolerant species (i.e., common carp and green sunfish) comprised an extremely small component of the entire fish community from 1989 through 2000. The number of species collected at all locations ranged from 8 to 26 and averaged 16.9 from 1990 through 2000 (Table 3-4). Fourteen to 23 species were collected at these same seven locations in 1989 for an average of 16.7 species. On an individual location basis, the average • number of species collected from 1990 to 2000 at Locations 740.0, 742.0, 743.0, 747.1, and 748.0 were quite similar to that observed in 1989. Only at Locations 746.0 and 747.0 on 3-3 • Forney Creek did the 1990 to 2000 average differ substantially (in a positive and negative direction, respectively) from the 1989 value. The number of species collected at the upstream reference location (748.0) ranged from 13 to 19 species while Locations 743.0 and 742.0 ranged from 14 to 22 and 13 to 23 species, respectively. Location 740.0, the most downstream site, had species numbers ranging from 19 to 26. This downstream accumulation of species is to be expected as stream order increases and would not indicate impact from the activities at LCTS. Fish biomass was estimated at each location from 1990 to 2000, except in 1997 at Location 746.0 when the discharge of cement fines from a neighboring rock quarry prevented fish sampling (Table 3-5, Appendix Tables B-1 to B-76). Fish biomass was variable and exhibited no negative trends since the 1989 survey. Fish biomass at the upstream reference location (748.0) ranged from 11.7 to 54.3 kg/ha (Figure 3-3). Fish biomass at the next downstream location (743.0) ranged from 14.7 to 63.3 kg/ha and indicated a slight increasing trend with high estimates during the drought years of 1999 and 2000 (Figure 3-4). Fish biomass at Location 742.0 was variable, ranging from 18.1 to 111.7 kg/ha, and may have • reflected activities impacting the Forney Creek watershed (Figure 3-5). As an example, fish species numbers and biomass at Location 742.0 were low in 1997 and probably represented impacts from the discharge of cement fines into lower Forney Creek. These fines were quite basic, as indicated by a pH value of 10 measured on the side of Killian Creek directly influenced by Forney Creek (pH measured by NCDENR personnel). Biomass at the most downstream location (740.0) ranged from 34.0 to 190.2 kg/ha (Figure 3-6). Biomass estimates at this location were influenced by occasional catches of several large gi73ard shad or catostomids moving upstream from Dutchman's Creek and Lake Wylie. Fish biomass generally increased from Locations 748.0 through 740.0,indicating the same increasing trend with downstream direction as did fish species numbers. The three locations on Forney Creek (746.0, 747.0, and 747.1) have been surveyed due to their potential to indicate watershed activities that may impact fish communities in the vicinity of the LCTS (Figure 3-7). The fish community in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks is typical for Piedmont streams in Lincoln County, North Carolina, and is similar to that reported by Louder (1964) from other locations in Forney and Killian Creeks. Lemly (1985) identified similar species in first, second, and third order streams of the Piedmont province of North Carolina. The LCTS fish • community represents seven families and encompasses a range of trophic groups including planktivores, insectivores, specialized insectivores, omnivores, and piscivores. Since the 3-4 • 1989 report (Duke Power Company 1990), ten additional species of fish have been collected in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks, although this increase is probably attributable to the extensive sampling effort expended during these 11 years. Pollution tolerant species comprise an extremely small component of the LCTS fish community. Indeed, the fish community has exhibited no visible impact from LCTS on the number of fish species'or fish biomass during construction and several years of operation. Because the fish community in Anderson, Forney, and Killian Creeks is characterized by species diversity, sustainability through cyclic seasonal changes, trophic level diversity, and a paucity of pollution tolerant species, it is concluded that there is a balanced, indigenous fish community in the creeks adjacent to the LCTS.
