Data submitted by the facility concerning the dosage rate of the biocides, degradation, system volume, average daily discharge, toxicity of the active ingredient(s) and/or breakdown products, and minimum stream flow have also been reviewed and evaluated. Please note, we have used the more, geographically appropriate Ceriodaphnia dubia LC50 value of 15.0 mg/L in calculating the regulated limitation for Nalco 2593. This value is from page 6 of the attached MSDS and is based on a 1.5% solution of the active ingredients. This revision did not change the final analysis portion of the worksheet (part IV; page 3). Calculations summarized on the accompanying worksheet predict that the use of these products 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 Nalco 7346 and 2593 as biocides at Galey & Lord Industries, Inc. - Caroleen Plant is deemed acceptable. If there are questions concerning this review please contact me at (919) 733-2136. Attachments cc: Forrest Westall-ARO Central files Galey & Lord Industries - Caroleen Plant Biocide Worksheet ►.

They are requesting approval for microbiocides NALCO 2593 and 7346 to cooling towers which discharge blowdown to Outfall 002. I have a call. in to the permittee to verify whether any biocides will be discharged via Outfall 001, since I'm confused by their cover letter regarding this matter. In the last permit round, DWQ had approved biocide-2593 for Outfall 004 (whic subsequently was renamed Outfall 002), but I found nothing previously approved for Outfall 001. The final permits are due to be issued October 26th, and we are shooting for Oct 16th to get them to Dave Goodrich for final review and signature. I know- not much time- but just do the best you can.

Caroleen Plant Caroleen; North Carolina' Permit #NC0006009 Dear Mr. Goodrich: Enclosed are three copies of the completed biocides worksheets and supporting .data for the addition of Nalco Microbiocides 2593 and 7346 to the cooling towers "which discharge blowdown into Outfall_ 002. These worksheets are provided in support of the renewal application for the Galey & Lord Caroleen Plant (Permit #NC0006009) NPDES permit submitted May .22, 1998. :Outfall 002 receives cooling tower condensate from a total of six cooling towers. Please note that copper and residual chlorine are comnonents of water treatment the cooling towers and/or oilers. oth chemicals exist in the products in very low, quantities. As shown on page 4 of the biocide workshed for Nalco 2593, copper is discharged in a concentration well below the water quality action level. Additionally, in re onse to yo a tember 9, ,1998 draft permit cover letter, NO biocide is added t the boiler blowdo e same two biocides dded *to -the cooling tower systems are dd it washers, which "discharge blowdown into utfall 001 with the sanitary wastewater and boiler blowdown. The dosage and flow provided in the 1993 permit application have not changed, thus the loci a wor heels provided in the 1993 application are still accurate. The copper'concentration in the, discharge, however, is half of that listed on the biocide worksheet, since the latest MSDS indicates its concentration is.0.025% instead of 0.05%. Should you have any questions, please contact me at (336)' 665-3091. We look forward to receiving a renewed permit in the near future. " Sincerely, GALEY & LORD INDUSTRIES, INC. F� w Mr. Edwin W'.

The products utilizing _this chemistry are registered with the EPA for use in recirculating cooling systems. The BCDMH products are in a dry form Vili.ch dissolve in water to form hypobromou, and hypochlorous acids which .function as active bioeidal constituents. The overall rate of hydrolysis'and consumption of active halogen is influenced by the halogen demand. imposed by the actual operating system. The mono halogen compound hydrolyzes very slowly in the absence of halogen demand. This generally results in an operating 'system which contains very low or non -detectable levels of free available halogen, but holds halogen in reserve to meet the bi.odemand requirement.. Field, experience has shown that,. unlike chlorine, good biological control is obtainable in many cases even in the absence of detectable free available halogen. Total and free available halogen levels can be monitored using various test kits includirig a Hach DPD test kit or an amperometric titration test method. The dry product is generally fed using a brominator designed to give consistent; disclution and feed rates.' -It can either be slug fed or continuously with a free residual generally around or below 0.2 ppm. The maximum free halogen residual as.ClZ should not exceed 0.5 ppm. For continuous feed applications it is desirable to check halogen residual levels at least daily. In the case of slug treatment, residuals should be checked during the time of biocide feed and shortly thereafter to determine the peak level of system halogen. BCDMH chemistry has been successfully used at many facilities to replace chlorine gas. Generally it has been found that 1 pound of tablets, fed on a slug basis will replace 5 to 7 pounds of chlorine gas.

NC0006009 RUTHERFORD COUNTY Dear Permittee: The subject permit issued on 6/28/90 expires on 11/30/93. North Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.1(c) requires that an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration date. As of the date of this letter, the Division of Environmental Management had not received an application for renewal. If operation of a discharge or waste treatment facility is to occur after the permit's expiration,date, or if continuation of the permit is desired, it must not be allowed to expire. A renewal request must be submitted no later than 180 days prior to the permit's expiration date. Operation of the waste treatment works or continuation'of a discharge after the expiration date would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day. If continuation of the permit is desired, failure to request renewal at least 180 days priok to expiration will result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00; larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request. A renewal application shall consist of the following information: 1. A letter requesting the renewal. 2. The completed application form (copy attached), signed and submitted in triplicate, referenced in Title 15 of North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC) Subchapter 2I1 .0105(a). 3. A processing fee (see attached schedule)- in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0105(b). The application processing fee is based on the design or permitted flow, whichever is appropriate, listed in the first categories of facilities. 4. Primary industries listed in Appendix A of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 122 shall also submit a priority pollutant analysis in accordance with Part 122.21. 5. Facilities which have not been constructed within the last permit cycle and are therefore, considered "new" facilities, shall also submit an Engineering Alternatives Analysis, referenced in 15A NCAC Subchapter 2H .0103 and Subchapter 2B .0201(c). 6. If the facility covered by this permit contains some type .of treatment works, a narrative description of the sludge management plan must be submitted with -the application for the renewal. In addition to penalities referenced above, a permit renewal request received after the expiration date will be considered as a new application and will require the higher application fee.. 15A NCAC 2H .0105(b)(2) requires payment of an annual Administrative and Compliance Monitoring fee for most permitted facilities. You will be billed separately for that fee (if applicable), after your permit is approved. The letter requesting renewal, the completed Permit application, and appropriate fee should be sent to: Permits and Engineering Unit Division of Environmental Management Post Office Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535 The check should be made payable to the North,Carolina Department'of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources which may be abbreviated as DEHNR.

Data submitted by the subject facility concerning the dosage rate of the compound, system volume, average daily discharge, toxicity of the active ingredients and/or breakdown products, and minimum stream flow have also been reviewed and evaluated. Note that we did not receive biocide worksheets for the use of Nalco 7346 and 2593. which appear to be discharged through outfall 001 (see attached 7/28/93 memo from Philip Klein). In reviewing the submitted materials, a discrepancy was noted in calculating the regulated limitation (part III, pages two and three). The toxicity data supplied by the facility utilizes an LC50 of 18.Omg/l for the mysid shrimp. Given the geographical location of the facility in the foothills, the more appropriate toxicity data would be for the fathead minnow (LC50=0.12ppm, see page 6 of the attached MSDS). This toxicity data was for the active ingredient and since the facility will be using a 1.5% active formulation we have made the appropriate conversion (LC50=8.Omg/1). These revisions did not alter the final analysis portion of the worksheet (part IV, page three). Calculations summarized- on the accompanying worksheet predict that the use of Nalco 2593 at the stated rate and discharge conditions will not result in a toxic impact to aquatic life in the receiving stream. Therefore, the use of this product as a biocide at Burlington Industries/Caroleen Plant-Outfall 004 is deemed acceptable. If there are questions regarding this review please contact me at (919) 733-2136.

Box 21207 Greensboro, North Carolina 21420 In a letter dated May 18, 1993, Burlington Industries requested renewal of the subject NPDES permit which expires on 11/30/93. This renewal application requested deletion of outfalls 002, 003, and 004 through which cooling tower blowdown was.discharged. All facility wastewater including cooling tower blowdown was to be conveyed through the septic tank and sand filter system and out outfall 001. We have since determined, that discharge of all' cooling tower blowdown through outfall 001 will exceed the+capacity of the sand filter. We request that outfall 004 continue to be permitted. We estimate the discharge through that outfall will be on the order of 11,500 gallons per day.

Box 691 Burlington, N.C. 27216 Subject: Nalco 2593 -Degradation Dear Ms. White: As discussed over the telephone this morning, I am sending for your reference information on the half-life ( t�,) ,of the active ingredients in Nalco 2593. The actives are isothiazolines and are identified in the references as RH-651 and RH-573. The dissipation rates shown in Figure 5 are for complete degradation of the compound as described in the document. A half-life of less than 10 days seems appropriate for the concentrations which would be expected in a typical cooling water tower system. Keep in mind that the degradation of the Isothiazolines are temperature and pH dependent and are accelerated in the presence of strong nucleophiles or reducing agents. I hope this information will satisfy your needs. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly. Sine6r ly, - ./Claudee H. Wol , MSc. Corporate Toxicologist CHW/cw enc. -SUMMARY Kathono WT and Kathon WT 1.5% biocides are biodegradable at use levels. The degradation of RH-651, the major active ingredient, begins with ring opening and elimination of chloride ion. Degradation leads to the formation of a variety of small organic acids, methylamine, carbon dioxide and elemental sulfur. The degradation products have no measurable environmental impact. INTRODUCTION In 1915, Krzeminski et al. (1) described fate of the active ingredients (Figure 1) of Kathon'WT bio= cides in -a' variety of systems. A degradation pathway was presented based on the metabolites that were -identified. The folldwing is an updated summary of the, current -understanding of the environmental fate of Kathon WT biocides. 0 0 l- N CI N "CH, RH-651 RH-573 5-Chloro-2-methyl7.4- 2-Methyl-4- isdthiazolin-3=one isothiazolin-3-one FIGURE 1 — ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN KATHON WTAND KATHON WT 1.5% BIOCIDES INITIATION OF DEGRADATION The degradation of RH-651and'RH-573' is accel- erated by exposure to three key chemical and physical factors: • Temperatures above 500C for extended pe- riods of time. • High pH, generally above pH' 9. • Strong reducing agents such as bisulfite ion, or strong nucleophiles such -as mer-- captans and amines. . Krzeminski et al. showed that the rate of degrada- tion - of low .levels of RH-651 increases with increasing pH and,to a more limited. extent, with increasing tempi,__,�ure.-This suggested that basic hydrolysis plays a major role in initiating the degradation process of RH-651. However, low levels .of nucleophiles, in-particular,mercaptans, significantly accelerate the degradation of un stabilized RH7651 in water (Figure 2). The reac- tiyity of these nucleophiles increases as pH in- creases. Therefore, it is likely that the pH dependent degradation of RH-651 is initiated by trace: levels of sulfides, -mercaptans or :other nucleophilic species. This is consistent with the fact that the addition of low levels of cupric ion, a sulfide scavenger- (Ksp for CuS is -2 x 10-47 at 180C), to Kathon WT biocides significantly im- proves stability. The initial attack of nucleophiles on RH=65.1 can be at sulfur or at carbon-5, although attack at sulfur predominates. The reasons for the differ-- ent reaction sites maybe related to different ionic characteristics of the nucleophiles. Nucleophilic attack at sulfur results in cleavage of the nitrogen - sulfur bond and is illustrated in Figure 3A. Attack at carbon-5 results in addition of the nucleophile at carbon-5 followed by rapid elimination of chloride ion as shown in Figure 3B. DEGRADATION PRODUCTS AND PATHWAY The degradation products from aqueous solutions of use levels of RW651 were identified after exposure to elevated temperature, elevated pH and glutathione. Similar distributions of degra- dation: products were seen in each of the three systems. The products found were consistent ,with the major'metabolites identified by Krzemin- ski et al. in the systems,they studied. The major degradation pathway of RH-651 is shown in Figure 4. The key steps in -the degradation path- way .are: 1. Initiationby a nucleophile attacking RH-651 at sulfur resulting in ring -opening. 2.. Rapid degradation of the intermediate. ad-. duct: to N-methylmalonamic acid,-ehloride ion, hydrogen sulfide and an oxidized form of the nucleophile. 3...:. Propagation of, degradation through the . reaction of released hydrogen sulfide with another molecule of. RH-651. 4.

All facility wastewater including cooling tower blowdown was to be conveyed through the septic tank and sand filter system and out outfall 001. We have since determined that discharge of all cooling tower, blowdown through outfall-001 will exceed the capacity of the sand filter. We request that outfall 004 continue to be permitted. We estimate the discharge through that outfall will be on the order of 11,500 gallons -per day. We have enclosed .a:revised_Short Form D, which has been modified to reflect this cooling water discharge (Attachment 1). The cooling tower blowdown which will be discharged through outfall 004-.will-be treated with the biocide Nalco 2593. A; biocide . worksheet for this discharge is,contained in Attachment 2. Bleed -off from the 'air .washers will continue to be discharged through the septic tank and sand filter system and out outfall 001. This water will typically be treated, with Nalco 7346. A.biocide . worksheet for this discharge is, contained in Attachment 2.- As necessary, the air washer water may be treated with Nalco 2593 instead of Nalco 7346. Use' of Nalco 2593 has previously been approved by the Division of EnvO ;n ental Management. A revised � \NSA n ram\ July 28, -1993 Page 2 biocide worksheet for the discharge of Nalco 2593 through outfall 001 is also contained in Attachment 3. Material safety data sheets and decay rate data for the biocides are contained in Attachment 4. The biocide worksheets have been prepared based on average daily discharge volumes and normal operation. Please contact Miriam White, Division Environmental Engineer, at (919) 228-2439 or Jake Wilson, Plant Engineer,- at'(704) 657-6376 with any questions.or.comments regarding this permit application.

Data itted by the subject facility concerning the dosage rate of the compound, system volume, average discharge, and minimum stream flow have also been reviewed and evaluated. In reviewing the submitted materials, it was noted that both the cooling tower blowdown (containing -Nalco 259')) and the sanitary wastewater are treated and discharged through outfall 001. Burlington Industries-Caroleen Plant does not need approval from our office for biocide use because there is no direct discharge. All cooling tower blowdown is first discharged to the septic tank sand filter and then discharged through outfall 001 to the Second Broad River. However, Jim Reid (Asheville Regional Office 6/8/9') phone conversation) felt that the septic tank sand filter would only provide an additional retention time of 24-48 hrs. and not actually treat the biocide and requested that the use of the biocide be reviewed. While reviewina the submitted Biocide 101 Worksheet, we found a discrepancy in the toxicity data supplied by the facility. The more appropriate LC50 value would be 0.12 reported for the 6 day acute fathead minnow test (see page 6 of 10 of the attached MSDS). The toxicity data reported was for the -active ingredient and since the facility will.be using a 1.5% active formulation we have made the appropriate conversion. Calculations summarized on the accompanying worksheet predict that the use of this compound at the stated rates and retention times will not result iii toxic impacts to aquatic life in the receiving stream. Therefore, the use of Nalco 2593 as a biocide at Burlington Industries-Caroleen Pla it is deemed acceptable.

Supervisor, NPDES Permits Group Dear Ms. Sullins: We hereby request renewal of NPDES Permit No. NC0006009 which expires on 11/30/93. We have attached three completed application forms (Attachment 1) and the permit application processing fee for major modifications of $4.00. Only sanitary wastewater (including extremely limited amounts of water from facility cleaning) and cooling tower blowdown are discharged from this facility. Previously, the sanitary.wastewater had been -discharged through outfall 001, and the cooling tower blowdown had been discharged through outfalls 002, 003, and 004. We have modified our piping system, and both: --sanitar-y.;:.Wastewater and- _cool_ ingv :tower-- blowdown -;are-:: treated: - and- discharged:..; through =outfall''' 001: Only stormwater is -now discharged through outfalls 002, 003, and 004. The renewal permit should, therefore, not ,include the discharge of cooling tower blowdown through outfalls 002, 003, and 004. The cooling tower blowdown does contain a biocide. Use of this biocide has previously been approved by the Division of Environmental Management (Attachment 3). Based on a review of the biocide worksheet, we have determined that our usage of the biocide results in discharge concentrations below those previously approved. We have at a revised biocide worksheet which includes the supplemental metals analysis (Attachment 2). NO r\.1 c'� May 18, 1993 Page 3 We request our permit be modified to specify reporting of • daily flow not instantaneous flow for discharge 001.. Our present flow measurement system consists of a calculation based on the number of times the dosing 'tank discharges to the sand filters. Each discharge is registered on a counter. We. multiply the counter number by the dose tank volume to monitor our flow. Your' letter dated February 19, 1993 requires primary industries complete a priority pollutant analysis, and new facilities evaluate engineering alternatives. Based on conversations with Forest Westall of your Asheville Regional office we understand those requirements are not applicable to our facility as we do not discharge process wastewater and are not considered a new facility. f Your February 19, 1993 letter also requests a description of sludge management: Approximately 8,000 gallons of sludge are pumped from the septic tank annually. 'This sludge is transported by Honeywagon Express to the Cliffside or Spindale Wastewater Treatment Plants. Please contact Miriam White at Burlington House Division Engineering (919) 228-2439, or Jake Wilson'at the Caroleen Plant (704) 657-6376', with any questions or comments regarding this permit renewal.

Box 691 Burlington, N.C. 27216 Subject: Nalco 2593 -Degradation Dear Ms. White: As discussed over the telephone this morning, I ain sending for your reference information on the half-life ( t�J of the active ingredients in Nalco 2593. The actives are isothiazolines and are identified in the references as RH-651 and RH-573. The dissipation rates shown in Figure 5 are for complete degradation of the compound as described in the document. A half-life of less than 10 days seems appropriate for the concentrations which would be expected in atypical cooling water tower system. Keep in mind that the degradation of the Isothiazolines are temperature and pH 'dependent and are accelerated in the presence of strong nucleophiles or reducing agents. I hope this -information will satisfy your needs. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly. S ing,6�ly, L-c�C 'Claude H. Wol ,MSc. Corporate Toxicologist CHW/cw enc. SUMMARY Kathon® WT and Kathon WT 1.5% biocides are biodegradable at use levels. The degradation of RH-651, the major active ingredient, begins with ring opening and elimination of chloride ion. Degradation leads to the formation of a variety of small organic acids, methylamine, carbon dioxide and elemental sulfur. The degradation products have no measurable environmental impact. INTRODUCTION In 1975, Krzeminski et al. (1) described fate of the active ingredients (Figure 1) of Kathon WT bio-. cides in a variety of systems. A degradation pathwaywas presented based on the metabolites that were identified. The following is an updated summary of the current understanding of the environmental fate of Kathon WT biocides. 0 0 N I N CI S� �CH3 S� "CH, RH-651 RH-573 5-Chloro-2-methyl-4- 2-Methyl-4- isothiazolin-3-one isothiazolin-3-one FIGURE 1 — ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN KATHON WT AND KATHON WT 1.5% BIOCIDES INITIATION OF DEGRADATION The degradation of RH-651 and RH-573 is accel erated by exposure to three key chemical and physical factors: • Temperatures above 500C for extended pe- riods of time. • High pH, generally -above pH 9. • Strong reducing agents such as bisulfite ion, or strong nucleophiles such as mer- captans and amines. Krzeminski et al. showed that the rate of degrada- tion of low levels of RH-651 increases with increasing pH and, to a more limited extent, with increasing temper; ' e. This suggested that basic hydrolysis pla),,— -najor role in initiating the degradation process of RH-651. However, low levels of nucleophiles, in particular mercaptans, significantly accelerate the degradation of un- stabilized RH-651 in water (Figure 2). The reac- tivity of these nucleophiles increases as pH in- creases. Therefore; it is likely that the pH dependent degradation of RH-651 is initiated by trace levels of sulfides, mercaptans or other nucleophilic species, This is consistent with the fact that the addition of low levels of cupric ion, a sulfide scavenger (Ksp for CuS is 2 x 10-47 at 180C), to Kathon WT biocides significantly im- proves stability. The initial attack of nucleophiles on RH-651 can be at sulfur or at carbon-5, although attack.at sulfur predominates. The reasons for the differ- ent reaction sites may be related to different ionic characteristics of the nucleophiles. Nucleophilic attack at sulfur results in cleavage of the nitrogen - sulfur bond and is illustrated in Figure 3A. Attack at carbon-5 results in addition of the nucleophile at carbon-5 followed by rapid- elimination of chloride ion as shown in Figure 3B. DEGRADATION PRODUCTS AND PATHWAY The degradation products from aqueous solutions of use levels of RH-651 were identified after exposure to elevated temperature, elevated pH and glutathione. Similar distributions of degra- dation products were seen in each of the three systems. The products found were consistent with the major metabolites identified by Krzemin- ski et al. in the systems they studied. The major degradation pathway of RH-651 is shown in Figure 4. The key steps in the degradation path- way are: Initiation by a nucleophile attacking RH-651 at sulfur resulting in ring -opening. 2. Rapid degradation of the intermediate ad- duct to N-methylmalonamic acid, chloride ion, hydrogen sulfide and an oxidized form of the nucleophile. 3. Propagation of degradation through the reaction of released hydrogen sulfide with another molecule of RH-651. 4. Degradation of N-methylmaIona mic acid to small organic acids (malonic, acetic, formic), methylamine, and carbon dioxide. 100 1 —0-- 0 ppm SH- 80. = -0'—, 1250 ppm SH- c C: �; - -- 2500 ppm SH- fO 60 � \ CC I 40 `\ M `\ a \ 20 \, a \ � v 0 0 5 10 15 Days 20 { FIGURE 2 — EFFECT OF.SULFIDE ON THE DEGRADATION OF 10% UNSTABILIZED RH-651.

Chlorine and chlori- nated -organic molecules are not formed as RH-651 degrades. Degradation products arising from use level concentrations of Kathon WT bio- cides should have no impact on the environment. ENVIRONMENTAL FATE STUDIES Biodegradation in Natural River Water Radioassays indicate that the active ingredients in Kathon WT biocides are readily biodegradable in natural river water (Figure 5). The half life of each active ingredient is related to the initial concentration tested. The most rapid 'degradation occurs at the lowest concentrations, which would occur following dilution of an ef- fluent water stream. Dissipation. in a Typical Soil About 28% of 14C applied to non -sterile soil as RH-651 was released.as 14CO2 from non -sterile soil after41 days. However,14C release as 14CO2 was less than 1 %-from sterile soil over the same time period. This indicates that RH-651. 100-%* is rapidly degraded to CO2 by primarily. biological — mechanisms in soil. Dissipation in Activated Sludge Waste Water Treatment Plants Laboratory studies performed in model activated sludge waste water treatment plants demon- strate that: • Kathon WT biocides rapidly dissipate in activated sludge. Figure 6Ashows a greater than 90% reduction of the active ing %,3- dients. • Dissipation of Kathon WT biocides is ac- companied by a corresponding reduction in total organic halogen levels as seen in Figure 6B. • Chlorinated organics do not accumulate in the sludge. • Activated sludge performance is unaffected . by Kathon WT biocides. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) and dissolved organic car- bon (DOC) removal_ rates are not affected by the addition of Kathon WT biocides to the model feed influent (Figures 7A and 713). In addition, levels. of viable bacteria and fungi in the sludge are. also unaffected by the presence of Kathon WT biocides. —0— 0.006 ppm RH-651 80 --0— 0.06 ppm RH-651 � —iN— 0.6 ppm RH-651 t -- E-- 0.6 ppm RH-573 60 40 h 20 0 0 10 20 30 Days FIGURE 5 = DISSIPATION OP.RH-651 AND RH-573 IN RIVER WATER —4— � r ATTACHMENT 3 BIOCIDE APPROVAL State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources Division of Environmental Management 512 North Salisbury Street • Raleigh, North Carolina 27611 James G.

Based upon observations made and samples collected, the system was judged to be operating in compliance with the requirements of its NPDES Permit Number NC0006009. A copy of the inspection report and lab analysis is enclosed for your records. To help maintain a state of compliance the following suggestions are offered: (1) Clean out and remove the accumulated solids from the laterals feeding wastewater to the sand filter bed. This will help to improve distribution over the filter bed surface . (2) Lightly rake the filter bed, and add filter sand up to the bottom of the lateral surface, making sure the sand is level over the filter bed. This will help to prevent channeling and ponding that was noted on the filter surface during the inspection. 0 Interchange Building, 59 WoodHn Place, Asheville, N.C. 28801 • Telephone 704-251-6208 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Philip H.

These two reports were erroneously calculated and should be amended by the ORC and resubmitted. The facility has three other discharges listed in the permit, pipes 002, 003, and 004. On -site inspection revealed no discharge from the pipes. It is suggested the facility contact Mr. Jim Reid about removing these discharges from the permit. Thank 'you any questions 704-252-6208.

Post Office Box 21207 Greensboro North Carolina. 27420 Subject: Compliance Sampling Inspection Status: In -Compliance Burlington Industries Caroleen Plant Wastewater Treatment Facilities NPDES Permit Number NC0006009 Rutherford County Dear Mr. Klein: An inspection of the wastewater treatment system serving Burlington Industries Caroleen Plant was conducted on on March 30, 1993 . Based upon observations.made and samples collected, the system was judged to be operating it compliance with its NPDES Permit Number NC0006009. A copy of the inspection report and laboratory analysis is enclosed for your records. The following suggestions are offered to help the facility maintain a state of compliance: (1) On -site measurement of residual chlorine indicated > 2.20 mg/l. Residual. chlorine this high in the discharge could possibly impact the receiving stream. Chlorine residual is difficult to.control with the tablet chlorinator used at the facility. An immediate solution to the problem would be to install a tablet de -chlorination unit at the effluent end of the chlorine contact chamber. Interchange Building, 59 Woodfin Place, Asheville, NC. 28801 • Telephone 704-2516208 An Equal Opportuniry Affirmative .fiction Employer ___llip H. Klein ipril 20, 1993 Page Two (2) A. timer control on the lift station following the.septic tank would help control the flow to the dosing tank and help in equalizing the.wear on the pumps. During the inspection the -pumps were not alternating in operation. Any addition in the treatment facility would require consent from the Division of Environmental Management, in the form of an Authorization to Construct. Review of monthly monitoring data submitted by the facility from February 1992 thru January 1993, indicate the facility to be in compliance with their monthly average limits. Sam McKinney's time and assistance -in conducting the inspection is greatly appreciated. It was a pleasure to visit your facility and find it so well maintained and operated.

SUBJECT: FECAL COLIFORM LIMIT FOR PERMIT #NC0006009 A division of Burlington Industries Caroleen Plant P.O. Box 158 Caroleen, North Carolina 28019 In reviewing the operation of our waste treatment plant for 1992, we have found we exceeded the daily limit for fecal coliform on three occasions. The first occurrence was on July 7; the second on August 18, and the third on November 3. At no time have we exceeded the geometric mean for the month. We have not been able to determine what caused the rise in fecal coliform. Our records show residual chlorine has not been below 0.1. The only possible cause could be trash in the chlorine contact chamber. We have enclosed the chamber with a screened -in building to prevent further trash from getting in the contact chamber. We will continue to monitor our plant and take whatever steps are necessary to operate within parameters -specified by -our permit.

The actual level of fecal coliform measured on December 17 was 9000/100ml and our permit allows 200/100m1. On December.l5, our plant shut down for Christmas vacation. Over a period of the next three days, -our air washers were dumped to -allow for maintenance.on.the air washers. This large volume of water caused the chlorine to be washed out of the contact chamber. Our operator -pulled his sample during this time. A new sample is being tested to be sure we are°back in compliance. The results of this sample will be reported to you as soon as they are received.

PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. EMC 4. 61 Used herein rneans the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. The Fede al Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. 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. i 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. I d. The ','average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sample 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. Part II Page 2 of 14 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal'coliform 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. 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 coliforrn 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 allowableamount 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. Pan Il Page 3 of 14 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. I 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. TyRes 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 (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. i b. Grabs 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. I 9. Calculation of Means I 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. I 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 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. Part II . Page 4 of 14 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 maybe 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. ECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS The permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit..

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. _ Part II Page 9 of 14 S. URsets a. D 6. 7. Is means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary pliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the ble control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment s, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless br 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 istrative 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 I1, B. 2. of this pI rmit. d. Burden of proof. In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof. Solids, sluldges, 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 permutes 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. 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. �, ' Part II Page 10 of 14 SECTION D -MONITORING AND RECORDS_ 1. 1.

DEM or Divisi Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. EN1C 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 t;SC 1251, et. seq. 5. Mass/Da�- Measurements a. The j'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 I 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 t,ermt. b. The '1'weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured durin; the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are siampled 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. 1 Part II Page 2 of 14 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform 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. 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 "Dail}" 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. �J Part II Page 3 of 14 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 iboth 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 ISamnles I a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of: i (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 (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�sinole, 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 inter] -als 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 bet".1een 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 exceieding 15 -minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the receiving waters. i 9. Calculation of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the indi�•idual 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). Part II Page 4 of 14 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 Dav 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.

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. Bvpassinaof 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. 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 perrruttee 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 faciiities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal .� Part II Page 9 of 14 pieriods 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 doh ntime 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. I "L'pse,t " 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 affirmati>-e 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 necessai-y for a demonstration of upset. 1 A permittee who wishes to establish the .affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, throuzh 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.

Samples were collected by the inspector during the inspection. The attached report contains National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit limited parameters and sample results for those parameters. The facility is operating within the limits established in the NPDES Permit. During the inspection I observed a small amount vegetation growing on the sand filter, this should be removed. A schedule should be established to prevent vegetation growth on the sand filter. The replacement of the top four inches of sand has not been accomplished. This was noted in the last three (3) inspections, I recommend the sand replacement be addressed as soon as possible. The wastewater treatment is otherwise well operated and maintained. The monthly Discharge Monitoring reports reviewed from July 1998 through June 1999, indicate no monitoring violations. The time and assistance of Mr. William McKinney, during the inspection was appreciated. If you or your staff have questions regarding this report, or if I may be of assistance, please contact me at 828-251-6208. Sincerely, R gC.

Outfall 001 contains sanitary wastewater plus boiler, blowdown (combined total of 9608 gpd, treated), while Outfall 002 contains cooling water from 6 cooling towers (1719 gpd, untreated). There is no process wastewater discharged. Both outfalls discharge to the Second Broad River in the Broad River-.- - - _ Basin. The Second Broad River is classified WS-IV waters, and is not listed as a 303(d) . = - impaired �vaterbody. I left stream classification as WS-IV, although file info varied (WS-III, WS-IV, C); WS-IV seems to fit the latest classification description (Classified 8/3/92; Index No. 9-41-(14.5)). Permit Changes Permit application indicated that TRC and copper are components of water treatment chemicaN used as biocides in the cooling water (002). I contacted their consultant (Jack Garrison, [919-484-8536) who said the current additives were all approved during last permit cycle. Based on file info and discussion with AgTox (Melissa Rosebrock), only NALCO biocide 2593 was previously approved for Outfall 004. This outfall was subsequently renamed Outfall 002 after the facility closed the original outfall 002 and 003. I asked facility to resubmit biocide 101 worksheets for NALCO biocide 7346, which is currently being used in Outfall 001. Add biocide condition for each outfall based on current usage. Monitoring at Outfall 002 (cooling tower blowdown) was changed to reflect current monitoring frequencies in general permit conditions. DMR Data. No compliance problems over past few years. Good BOD, TSS, NH3, and FC control. No pH data reported for Outfall 002, despite limit and monthly monitoring required *'in current permit. No upstream/downstream temperature data reported for Outfall 062 despite requirement in current permit [Note: NPDES is recommending that upstream/,downstream monitoring be removed in permit renewal, since it is not required in generalp permit]. Staff Report. The file contains an ARO staff report (dated 6/17/93) which rated the facility as� Class I. The new permit application lists dechlorination at Outfall 001, although no ATC is in file for this addition. If this is true, will need to add 5 points to facility rating, which would still remain a Class I rating. ARO- is dechlor installed at 001? WLA/Receiving Water. The last WLA was conducted in 6/93 using the current design flow (0.018 MGD). Secondary limits were recommended. There was no toxicity for TRC or ammonia based on mass balance calculation.

Box 35528 Greensboro, NC 27425-0528 Subject: Compliance Sampling Inspection Status: In Compliance NPDES Permit Number NC0006009 Galey and Lord WWTP Caroleen Plant N Rutherford County Dear Mr. Gibson: The,Division of Environmental Management conducted the above referenced inspection on October 23, 1996. Samples were collected by the inspector during the inspection. The attached report contains National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit limited parameters and sample results. for those parameters. 'The facility is operating within the limits established in the NPDES Permit. During the inspection observations were made that several of the distribution laterals have deteriorated resulting in their breakage. I suggest these laterals be -repaired or replaced as soon as possible. This will prevent a lateral failure, that would allow a area of the sand filter to be flooded. In addition, areas of the sand filter appear to receive more of the wastewater flow, than other areas. In the area that receive greater flow the sand has accumulated solids. I suggest, removing two (2) inches of sand and solids in these areas and replacing it with new sand. The monthly Discharge Monitoring reports reviewed from September 1995 through August 1996, indicate the facility is operating consistently in compliance. The time and assistance of Mr. William McKinney, during the inspection was appreciated.

Box 159 Caroleen, North Carolina 28019 On January 14,- 1995, the 2nd. Broad River rose 10 to 12 feet above its banks and flooded the chaste treatment -plant at the Galey & Lord Caroleen Plant. The septic tank, sand filter bed, and. chlorine contact chamber 'were all flooded, and when the waters receded enough that we could get to the plant, all tanks had large amounts of silt in them. It took four days to get the plant back in operation. The sand filter had varying levels of silt so -the silt and 4" of sand were removed. New sand was put back and leveled. The septic tank water chamber, where the pumps are located, was pumped clean of --all silt and pumps were put.back in operation. The -chlorine contac•c chamber was pumped clean of silt and put back in operation. Enclosed is a copy of the first lab report after the flood_ As you can see,'all parameters are well within limits_ If you would like to visit to check the plant, please give us a call at 704 657-6376 or drop in if you are.in the area_ Sincerely,' - Steve Meador Plant Manager W.

Box 35528 Greensboro, NC 27425 -.r Subject: Units Of Measurement on DMRs Galey And Lord Industries NPDES No.: NC0006009 [Rutherford -County Dear Mr. Gibson: Recent submittals of Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) from the subject facility have shown values for total residual chlorine reported in micrograms per liter (ug1l). These reported values are well below -the current detection limit for this parameter and inconsistent with values previously reported by the facility in milligrams per liter (mg/1). The Division's recent modification of DMRs included a change in the printed units of measurement for total residual chlorine from mg/l to ug/l. It is believed the facility is continuing to report mg/1 results for this parameter, but listing those results as ug/l values. Total residual chlorine is not a limited parameter in this NPDES permit and results of its monitoring may be reported using units of measurement of either mg/l or ug/l. If you wish to continue to report total residual chlorine values in mg/l, clearly mark through the ug/l units on the Division's pre-printed MR-1 form and write "mg/l" above that space. If you wish to report in ug/l, testing results in mg/l may be converted from mg/1 to ug/l by multiplying the value in mg/l by 1000. Once a decision has been made as to which units of measurement will be used, it is requested the facility remain consistent in its reporting practice. Submitting reports which include correct units of measurement helps ensure efficient computer data entry and compliance evaluation. Please make this change in reporting as soon as possible. Facilities which submit DMRs exhibiting incorrect units of measurement are subject to the issuance of a Notice of Violation.
