From: Melissa Rosebrock .pit Oa.
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. If there are
questions concerning this review please contact me at(919)733-2136.

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. Exner et al .
Tests performed in accordance with criteria set forth in the "Practice for Conducting
Acute Toxicity Tests with Fish, Macroinvertebrates, and Amphibians" (ASTM Standard

Betz4c04..-' oxioais 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 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.

Subject: JPS Converter and Industrial Corp.-Boger City Plant
Use of Biocides
NPDES No. NCG500077 (formerly NC0004871)
Lincoln County
JPS Converter and Industrial Corp. initially submitted Betz Entec biocide products 365 and 367
for approval. Since the initial submital,the facility has requested that we disregard the review for 367.
The facility has now submitted Betz-Entec 345A for review. Data submitted by the subject facility
concerning the dosage rate of the compounds, system volume, average daily discharge,toxicity of the
active ingredients and/or breakdown products, and minimum stream flow have also been reviewed and
evaluated.
Calculations summarized on the accompanying worksheet predict that the use of Betz Entec 365
and Betz Entec 345A at the stated dosage rates and discharge conditions will not result in toxic impact to
aquatic life in the receiving stream. Therefore,the use of these products as biocides at JPS Converter
and Industrial Corp. is deemed acceptable.
If there are questions regarding this review please contact me at(919)733-2136.

Dear Melissa:
Re: JPS Converster Corporation r,
Boger City, NC ,
General Permit#NC G500000
Enclosed is a biocide worksheet for Betz Entec 365.
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.
Sincerely,
BETZ ENTEC, INC.

Betz Entec 365
Rainbow Trout 96 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 5.0 mg/L
Bluegill Sunfish 96 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 6.5 mg/L
Daphnia magna 48 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 3.3 mg/L
Fathead Minnow 96 hr. Static Acute Bioassay LC50 6.8 mg/L
Sheepshead Minnow 96 hr. 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

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.

Rainbow Trout 96 hr. 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. Exner et al.

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 .
If you have any questions concerning this please let me
know.
Sincerely,
Cici_ ;1/.,\._
