Subject: JPS Converter and Industrial Corporation-Lincolnton Biocide/Chemical Treatment Use NPDES No. NCG500000 Lincoln County JPS Converter and Industrial Corporation has submitted Spectrus biocides OX103 and NX102 for approval. Data submitted by the facility and chemical supplier concerning dosage rates, degradation, system volume, average daily discharge, toxicity of the active ingredient(s) and/or breakdown products, and minimum stream flow have been reviewed. While performing our review, we noted several discrepancies. I have been in contact(by phone) with the chemical supplier several times over the last three to four months in an attempt to clarify concerns regarding the submittal. To date, we have not received appropriate documentation. Items which need clarification are outlined below: Permit number NCG500077 Biocide worksheet is submitted for OX 103 only, while the cover letter requests approval for OX 103 and NX102 Cover letter requesting approval refers to facility as permit number NCG50000 Biocide worksheet for OX103 was signed in 1995, with only the trade name corrected with "white-out" Half-life documentation was not included for OX 103 Aquatic Toxicology data submitted (see MSDS) for OX103 does not match that which is on the worksheet Permit number NCG50000 Biocide worksheet is submitted for NX102 only, while the cover letter requests approval for NX102 and OX 103 Biocide worksheet for NX102 was signed in 1994, with only the trade name corrected with "white-out" Half-life documentation was not included for NX102 Aquatic Toxicology data submitted and active ingredients listed (see MSDS) for NX102 does not match that which is on the submitted worksheet Submitted worksheet utilizes an older version of Biocide Form 101 (7/92) rather than the most recent version (2/95) Due to the many errors, questions and discrepancies noted on this submittal, we are unable to recommend approval for either of these biocides for use at JPS Converter- Lincolnton.

Static Acute Bioassay LC50 9.2 mg/L Daphnia magna 48 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 11.2 mg/L The active ingredient in 5t2e6*4 N,Cjp2 degrades rapidly in aqueous, alkaline systems (particularly above pH 4.0) to yield predominantly dibromoacetic acid which is approximately 100 times less toxic than the original active ingredient, dibromonitrilopropionamide. Hydrolysis of DBNPA ultimately forms carbon dioxide, ammonia and bromide ions via the following sequence of degradation products: dibromoacetonitrile, dibromoacetamide, dibromoacetic acid, glycolic acid and oxalic acid. DBNPA reacts rapidly with various ions such as bisulfite to form cyanoacetamide. Decomposition under the influence of sunlight also leads to the formation of cyanocetamide. Contact with soil organisms degrades DBNPA. A detailed discussion on the rates and products of DBNPA decomposition may be found in J. Agr. Food Chem. , Vol . 21, No. 5, pp. 838 - 42, 1973, by J. H.

The material is a slow-release halogen donor which also dissolves slowly. The rate of soluti-on is influenced by the surface area of the product, the water temperature and the rate with which water flows over the pellets or tablets. Relatively simple devices are used to feed the product. • ���-1�eark.uM ter�,,r oxro'S exhibits a toxicity which is characteristic of halogens. The material is usually fed at substoichiometric levels, and no free-available halogen is present in the tower blowdown. When the bromine and chlorine are released, the remaining molecule is 5,5-Dimethylhydantoin. Acute toxicity studies with fathead minnows have shown that this material is nontoxic at a concentration of 8000 mg/L. Testing for active hydantoin is relatively simple. Any standard test for free-available chlorine will rapidly strip off any bromine or chlorine which is still attached to the molecule. This makes it possible to detect bromine expressed as available chlorine or chlorine itself.

As we discussed during our conversation today, I have used a half-life of 0.08 days. This product is very similar to a biocide that was previously approved in July, 1994. I have attached aquatic toxicity data and a product fact sheet for Betz Entec 365. I have also attached aquatic toxicity data for Betz Entec 367. The worksheet for this biocide has been sent under previous cover. Since this is not a permit renewal, your immediate review is very much appreciated.

Static Acute Bioassay LC50 7 mg/L The active ingredient in Entec 365 degrades rapidly in aqueous, alkaline systems (particularly above pH 4.0) to yield predominantly dibromoacetic acid, which is approximately 100 times less toxic than the original active ingredient, dibromonitrilopropionamide. Hydrolysis of DBNPA ultimately forms carbon dioxide, ammonia and bromide ions via the following sequence of degradation products: dibromoacetonitrile, dibromoacetamide, dibromoacetic acid, glycolic acid and oxalic acid. DBNPA reacts rapidly with various ions such as bisulfite to form cyanoacetamide. Decomposition under the influence of sunlight also leads to the formation of cyanoacetamide. Contact with soil organisms degrades DBNPA. A detailed discussion on the rates and products of DBNPA decomposition may be found in J. Agr. Food Chem. , Vol . 21, No. 5, pp. 838-42, 1973, by J. H.

Static Acute Bioassay LC50 20 mg/L Betz Entec 367 is a pelletized form of 1-Bromo-3-Chloro-5, 5-Dimethylhydantoin. The material is a slow-release halogen donor which also dissolves slowly. The rate of solution is influenced by the surface area of the product, the water temperature and the rate with which water flows over the pellets or tablets. Relatively simple devices are used to feed the product. Entec 367 exhibits a toxicity which is characteristic of halogens. The material is usually fed at substoichiometric levels, and no free-available halogen is present in the tower blowdown. When the bromine and chlorine are released, the remaining molecule is 5,5-Dimethylhydantoin. Acute toxicity studies with fathead minnows have shown that this material is nontoxic at a concentration of 8000 mg/L. Testing for active hydantoin is relatively simple. Any standard test for free-available chlorine will rapidly strip off any bromine or chlorine which is still attached to the molecule. This makes it possible to detect bromine expressed as available chlorine or chlorine itself. .

Static Acute Bioassay LCc50 9.2 mg/L Daphnia magna 48 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 11.2 mg/L The active ingredient in Entec 345A degrades rapidly in aqueous, alkaline systems (particularly above pH 4.0) to yield predominantly dibromoacetic acid which is approximately 100 times less toxic than the original active ingredient, di bromonitrilopropionamide. Hydrolysis of DBNPA ultimately forms carbon dioxide, ammonia and bromide ions via the following sequence of degradation products: dibromoacetonitrile, dibromoacetamide, dibromoacetic acid, glycolic acid and oxalic acid. DBNPA reacts rapidly with various ions such as bisulfite to form cyanoacetamide. Decomposition under the influence of sunlight also leads to the formation of cyanocetamide. Contact with soil organisms degrades DBNPA. A detailed discussion on the rates and products of DBNPA decomposition may be found in J. Agr. Food Chem. . Vol . 21, No. 5, pp. 838 - 42, 1973, by J, H.

Boger City Plant NPDES: NC 0004871 Lincoln County Dear Ms. Robson: This letter is in response to your letter of November 25, 1992 , concerning biocide usage and assurance of depletion of any residual chlorine in the discharge to the creek. We have been monitoring for residual chlorine routinely for more than two years and have maintained residuals of less than 0 .01 mg/liter. We propose to add a sodium or sodium bisulfite solution to our discharge at a concen- tration sufficient to distroy any residual chlorine. We will maintain a daily log indicating the pumping rate and assuring that sufficient solution is available to be pumped. The completed system will be installed by February 1 , 1993 .
