General "C" classification uses downstream.. PART II - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS 1. a. Volume of wastewater: 0.010 MGD (Design Capacity) b. Current permitted capacity: 0.010 MGD Y . Page Two 2. Type of treatment (specify whether proposed or existing): Existing treatment consists of a 10,000 gpd extended aeration package plant, which includes a flow meter, an aeration tank, clarifier, sludge holding tank and. chlorination with a tablet type chlorinator, contact tank, and a tablet dechlorination unit*. There are no proposed WWT facilities at this time. *Added since the permit was last renewed. Treatment plant classification: No change from current rating (Class II). 4. Compliance history: This facility has a very good compliance history. PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION 1. Special monitoring/effluent limit requests: None at this time. 2. Alternative analysis: Municipal sewer is not available to the site nor is there sufficient area for the construction of a surface or subsurface disposal system. PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The permittee, Shurtape Technologies, LLC, has applied for renewal of the subject Permit. Changes to the existing WWT facility since the Permit was last issued are noted in Part II, No. 2 above. Additional flow in the form of cooling tower blowdown and air wash wastewater have also been connected to the WWTP since the permit was last renewed. Both of these waste streams are chlorinated, however, dechlorination is provided prior to their introduction into the WWTP (see biocidal data for both of these flows included in the company's renewal application). The most recent inspection report indicates that the facility is being well maintained and able to meet existing effluent limits. It is recommended that the Permit be renewed as requested. 7 .

The following information is also provided, as required: • Documentation of changes since last permit was issued. o Since the last permit was issued, a dechlorination system was installed, as required. The dechlorination system consists of a simple tablet dechlorinator. The dechlorination system was permitted under the "fast track" program and required documentation was submitted. Good performance of the dechlorination system is documented by continual compliance as reported in DMRs. o Also since the last permit was issued, the water discharged from the facility's cooling tower and air wash systems has been routed to the wastewater treatment plant. Because chlorine tablets are used in these systems, the water is dechlorinated prior to discharge to the wastewater treatment system. Total wastewater flow is still well below the permitted 10,000 gallons per day, and continued compliance has been demonstrated as reported in the DMRs. Sludge Management Plan.

Recirculating water systems are coin- . monly contaminated with fungal, and -bacterial organisms. and occasionally with algae. In addition, their spores and reproductive cells are continuously present in the air, so the Uc- lihood of repeated innoctilatian is extremely high from a biological standpoint. With their extremely fast killing action, DOW Antimicrobials 7287 and 8536 effectively control entering microorganisms before they can create problems. Because most microorgan- isms are killed very soon after`exposure, there usually isn't time for daughter generations to develop. Fast kill means first generation kill, which goes a long way toward preventing adap- tation to the biocide or defense through secre- tion of biofUm. Kill rate outpaces degradation me - DOW DBNPA typically yields a 99.999 percent kill before it degrades sufficiently to lose effectiveness. Figure 1 shows the degrada- tion profile of DOW DBNPA for various tem- perature and pH combinations. At neutral pH and normal system oper- ating temperatures, DOW DBNPA exhibits a half-life of about -nine hours. As pH increases, the rate of degradation of DOW DBNPA in - crams, but virtually complete microbial kill is achieved well before significant degradation occurs. As shown in Figure 2. DOW DBNPA easily achieves 99.999% kill in under three hours even in alkaline systems. 7;i_O6ijre 6-3 1e-lu'JG t7f 9.r?.�?!ail>Ck; i . ac. 100 Figure 2 - Rate of Microorganism Kill by 2.5 ppm DOW DBNPA in High pH (8.5) Sy%lem Ix viable mganismi remaining 100 10 1 .1 .01 .001 23 ppm DBNPA .11001 0 40 80 12t! 160 Time (minutesl 100 ppm Alkalinity pH = 8.5 311t1 ppm Haninesr :?EMI lnidal CFVhnI Compatible and s)mergWic Mth ehlor'ine treatment DOW Antimicrobial 7287 and DOW Antimicrobial 8536 provide excellent results in co -treatment programs with chlorine.
