The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular importance is Page M-3. Page M-3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for your discharge. Your discharge must not exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed "Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the DMR forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the form, please contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form. It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, otherwise the forms may be returned to you as incomplete. Failure to properly complete the forms may also result in an automatic $300.00 fine. The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III) set forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s). The conditions include special reporting requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you 919 North Main Street, P.O.

Kennerly Page Two March 4, 1987 are operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day per violation plus criminal penalties may be assessed for such violations. As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed. Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of your Permit. This date is set forth on Page M-1 or I-1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, through cessation of the discharge, then you should request that the Permit be rescinded. As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to providing any assistance. Sincerely, �C(5-7 D.

Representative Sampling Samples and measurements taken as required herein shall be representative of the volume and nature of the monitored discharge. 2. Reporting Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and reported on a Monthly Monitoring Report Form (DEM No. MR 1.0, 1.1, and 1.4) ., postmarked no later than the 45th day following the completed reporting period.

Definitions a. The monthly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected in a one - month period. The monthly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -month period. b. The weekly average, other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the arithmetic mean of all the composite samples collected during a one -week period. The weekly average for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of samples collected in a one -week period. c. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. d. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. M 5 Part I Permit No. NC e. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equiva- lent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1). f. Composite Sample: A "composite sample" is any of the following: (1) Not less than four influent or effluent portions collected at regular intervals over a period of 24 hours and composited in proportion to flow. (2) Not less than four equal volume influent or effluent portions collected over a period of 24 hours at intervals proportional to the flow. (3) An influent or effluent portion collected continuously over a period of 24 hours at a rate proportional to the flow. g. Grab Sample: A "grab sample" is a single influent or effluent portion which is not a composite sample. The sample(s) shall be collected at the period(s) most representative of the total discharge. 4. Test Procedures Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations published pursuant to N. C. G.
