Footnotes:
No later than 270 days from the effective date of this perrnit, the permittee shall begin submitting -discharge
monitoring reports electronically using the Division's eDMR application system [see A. (4.)].
2. How shall be monitored with each discharge event — During periods of no flow, the
Permittee shall submit a signed, monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) indicating
"No discharge." Flow may be monitored using any one of four methods:
a) measure flow continuously (via flow meter, totalizer preferred);
b) calculate flow (see Rational Equation) based on total rainfall per unit
area draining to the outfall [see A. (3.)];
c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or
d) report flow based on discharge pump logs.
3 Turbidity — Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. if receiving -
stream background exceeds 50 NTIJ, the effluent shall not increase background levels. Non-
compliance with this Standard may require additional. stream monitoring and a Turbidity
Corrective Action Plan (TCAP).

Permit NC0074705
A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (ANNUAL)
[15A NCAC 02B .0500 et seq.]
The permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on an annual basis using protocols defined as definitive
in EPA Document EPA-821-R-02-012 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents
and Receiving Waters to Freshwater and Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a
Fathead Minnow (Pirnephales promelas) 24 hour static test. Effluent samples for sell -monitoring
purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and shall be performed at the
NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all waste treatment processes.
The parameter code for Pimephales promelas is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of
this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWR Form AT-1 (original) is to be
sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1623 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1623
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water Sciences Section no later than 30
days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine
of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of
the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re-
opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will
require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the
month of the initial monitoring.

A. (3.) FLOW MEASUREMENT RATIONAL [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
The Rational Equation: Q=KuCIA, where:
Q = flow (peak flow rate (cfs or m3/sec)
Ku = units conversation factor = 1.008 for U.S. standard units (usually
ignored because it is so close to 1), or 0.278 for SI units
C = dimensionless runoff coefficient for the watershed, loosely defined
as the ratio of runoff to rainfall
intensity of rainfall taken from the intensity -duration -frequency
curves for the specified design return period at the time of
concentration, tc (in/h or mrn/h). tc = time of concentration (time
after the beginning of rainfall excess when all portions of the
drainage basin are contributing simultaneously to flow at the
outlet).
A = area of tributary watershed (acres or km2)
The rational equation is used to calculate the runoff from a region, given:
the runoff coefficient which accounts for infiltration and other
potential losses in the region,
the rainfall intensity to the region,
the time it takes for runoff to travel from the region's upper reaches
to its outlet, and the region's drainage area.

Beginning no later than 270 days from the effective date of this permit, the permittee shall begin
reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge
Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter
monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state's
eDMR application is compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic Reporting Regulation.
(CROMERR), permittees will be required to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state
electronically using eDMR and will be required to complete the eDMR submission by printing,
signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the computer printed eDMR to the
following address:

ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a pennittee is unable to use the eDMR. system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility
being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband
access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted
and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or
alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the
mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be
submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the
facility would be required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid
for twelve (12) months and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted

Footnotes:
1. Flow — During periods of no flow, the Permittee shall submit a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report
(DMR) indicating "No discharge." Flow must be monitored with each discharge using one of the
following four methods [see Flow Measurement Rationale, Section A. (3.)]:
a) measure flow continuously;
b) calculate flow based on total rainfall per area draining to the outfall; exclude built -upon
area (best method for facilities with large runoff -collection ponds);
c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or
d) report flow based on discharge pump logs.
2. Oil and Grease — Where possible, the grab sample for oil & grease should be skimmed from.
the surface of a quiescent (calm water) zone.
3. Turbidity — Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. If receiving stream
background turbidity exceeds 50 NTU, effluent shall not cause this background value to increase.
4, Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minnow, 24-hour), Annual [see Section A. (2.)].
The Permittee shall discharge no floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts.
The Permittee shall discharge no tank solids, tank bottom water, or tank rag layer.
Following hydrostatic tank or pipe testing, the Permittee shall discharge no wastes containing
benzene concentrations greater than 74.1 µg/L, or toluene concentrations greater than 11 µg/L.

Permit NC0074705
A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY M©NIT©RING (ANNUAL)
The Perm tee shall conduct annual toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in EPA Document
EPA/600/4-90/027 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)
24-hour static test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste
treatment. The permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January of
the calendar year of the effective date of the permit. The annual test requirement must be performed and
reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30, notification will be made to the Division by this
date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results, required as part of this permit
condition, will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was
performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent
to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Section
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine
of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of
the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re-
opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will
require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the
month of the initial monitoring.

A. (3. FLOW MEASUREMENT RATIONALE
The Rational Equation: Q=KuCIA, where:
Q = flow (peak flow rate (cfs or m3/sec)
Ku = units conversation factor = 1.008 for U.S. standard units (usually ignored
because it is so close to 1), or 0.278 for SI units
C = dimensionless runoff coefficient for the watershed, loosely defined as the
ratio of runoff to rainfall
I = intensity of rainfall taken from the intensity -duration -frequency curves
for the specified design return period at the time of concentration, tc
(in/h or ). tc = time of concentration (time after the beginning of
rainfall excess when all portions of the drainage basin are contributing
simultaneously to flow at the outlet).
A = area of tributary watershed (acres or km2)
The rational equation is used to calculate the runoff from a region, given:
• the runoff coefficient which accounts for infiltration and other potential
losses in the region,
• the rainfall intensity to the region,
• the time it takes for runoff to travel from the region's upper reaches to its
outlet, and the region's drainage area.

A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml sn
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period.
The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow,
(2) Constant time/variable volume: 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
(3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period
with the time intervals between samples d.eterrnined 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 preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) Constant time/consstant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period
at a constant time interval. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. This method may

only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 1.5 percent. The following restrictions
also apply:
• Influent and effluent grab samples shall be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters
• Influent samples shall not be collected more than once per hour.
• Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time < 24 hours shall collect effluent
grab samples at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period.
• Permittees with wastewater treatment systems whose detention time exceeds 24 hours shall collect
effluent grab samples at least every six hours; there must be a minimum of four samples during a 24-
hour sampling period.
Continuous flow measurement
Flow monitoring that occurs 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.
Daily Discharge
The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the
calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is
calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration
comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the
arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.2)
Daily Maximum.
The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month.
Daily Sampling
Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in
the permit. Sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal
operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit
parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s).

Dear Ms. Sprinkle:
At the Charlotte II Terminal stormwater is not treated by any method before discharge and therefore
solids are not generated by a wastewater treatment system. Stormwater collected in the storage tank.
containment area and stormwater from the ethanol skid are the only waters that are discharged at this

Subject: NPDES Permit NC0074705
Charlotte 1 Terminal
Mecklenburg County
Dear Mr. Wiese:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0022187 was issued on May 1, 2006 for
the discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State from your facility. 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 are Pages 4 and 5.
Pages 4 and 5 set 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 reporting forms furnished or approved by
this Agency. For new permits/facilities, the Division may supply an initial small stock of these
forms; however, if you fail to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as possible.
The forms, including directions for their completion, and other important infoitnation are also
available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/documents.html. It is imperative that all applicable
parts be completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required.
Please be advised that an annual fee may be required for your facility; if so, you will
receive a statement from our Raleigh Office. It is imperative that the fee be paid in a timely
manner so as to prevent enforcement action or possible revocation of your permit.
The remaining parts of the Permit 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 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.
To maintain compliance with discharge limitations, proper operation and maintenance of
a wastewater treatment facility and the development of a process control program are essential.
For those facilities having chlorine tablet disinfection, please be advised that chlorine tablets
approved for wastewater treatment use must be used; swimming pool tablets are not approved.
Also, be advised that DWQ staff need to have access to the facility's discharge point into the
receiving stream; please maintain a path along the outfall line to facilitate that access.
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 $25,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties) may be
assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that you are unable to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A Special Order by
Consent (SOC) may be necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
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 1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not automatically transferable.
If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that the Division of
Water Quality rescind the Permit or request that DWQ reissue the Permit to another party, if
necessary.
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.

Footnotes:
1. Flow — During periods of no flow, the Permittee shall submit a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report
(DMR) indicating "No discharge." Flow must be monitored with each discharge and may be
monitored in one of four ways:
a) measure flow continuously;
b) calculate flow based on total rainfall per area draining to the outfall; exclude built -upon
area (best method for facilities with large runoff -collection ponds);
c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or
d) report flow based on discharge pump logs.
2. Oil and Grease — Where possible, the grab sample for oil and grease should be skimmed from
the surface of a quiescent (calm water) zone.
3 Turbidity — Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. If receiving stream
background turbidity exceeds 50 NTU, effluent shall not cause this background value to increase.
4. Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minnow, 24-hour), Annual [see Special Condition A.(2.)].
The Permittee shall discharge no floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts.
The Permittee shall discharge no tank solids, tank bottom water, or tank rag layer.
Following hydrostatic tank or pipe testing, the Permittee shall discharge no wastes containing
benzene concentrations greater than 74.1 11. I g/L , or toluene concentrations greater than 11 Ftg/L.

EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (ANNUAL)
The Permittee shall conduct annual toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in EPA Document
EPA/600/4-90/027 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)
24-hour static test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste
treatment. The permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January of
the calendar year of the effective date of the permit. The annual test requirement must be performed and
reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30, notification will be made to the Division by this
date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results, required as part of this permit
condition, will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Fouii (MR-1) for the month in which it was
performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent
to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Branch
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine
of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of
the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests perfoiiiied by the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re-
opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will
require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the
month of the initial monitoring.

October through December.
J
y
July through September, and
Composite Sample
A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 ml in
such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The
Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time
interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically.
Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods:
(1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
(2) Constant time/variable volume: 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
(3) Variable time/constant volume: 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 preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the
expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(4) Constant tune/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time intervaL This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary
less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart

Please find attached the NPDES permit applications for the renewal of the above
referenced permits. There have been no changes in the source, treatment or discharge of
wastewater at these refined product storage terminals since the last permits were issued.
The wastewater discharges consist of non -contact storm waters from diked storage tank
areas; storm water and wash water from loading rack areas treated with oil/water
separators and hydrostatic waters from testing tanks and/or associated pipelines.
There are virtually no solids generated from treatment of the wastewaters at either of
these terminals. Every few years any sediments are removed from the oil water
separators and the floor drain mud boxes in the loading racks. These sediments are
disposed of off -site as a product contact waste.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional information. Please
also continue to direct any correspondence to my attention as well.

Waste Load Allocation (WLA) and Bulk -Storage SOP. A Waste Load Allocation was last conducted
in March 1993, for discharge to receiving stream, Paw Creek [segment 11-120-(2.5)], classified C waters
of the state. The 1993 WLA recommended monitoring for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene
(BTEX), TSS, Turbidity, oil & grease, pH, and Lead.
The Division established new effluent limits and monitoring requirements for the previous permit
following Requirements for Discharges from Oil and Petroleum Storage Facilities (SOP 2001, version
30Ju101). This permit required monitoring for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene (BTEX), Total
Suspended Solids (TSS), Turbidity, Oil & Grease, MTBE, EPA Methods 624/625 (for volatile and semi -
volatile organic compounds), and Acute Toxicity appropriate for episodic discharges.
In September 2003, Magellan Terminals Holdings, L.P. acquired this facility from previous
owner/operator Williams Energy Ventures and registered a name -change with the Division. Stormwater
collected from the truck -loading racks area is treated by an oil/water separator and combined with
stormwater collected behind diked areas. This combined treated wastewater discharges at Outfall 001.

PERMITTING STRATEGY
New SOP for Oil Terminals. The Division established renewal criteria for this permit according to the
NPDES Permitting Requirements for Petroleum Bulk -Storage 2005 Permitting Strategy, version
September 9, 2005 (2005 SOP). This document recommends 12 criteria for renewal including
reasonable potential analyses (see Renewal Summary).
Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA): The Division conducted a reasonable potential analysis
(according to EPA guidelines) in order to establish numerical potential for a given parameter to exceed
its water quality stream standard. The Division established a list of parameters of concern (POCs) based
on the previous permit. However, most permit parameters were not detected during this permit cycle,
therefore no RPA was warranted. One exception, Turbidity (with a standard of 50 NTU), indicated
reasonable potential with a maximum predicted of 88.2 NTU at the highest reported monthly -average
flow of 0.019 MGD. Therefore, a permit limit of 50 NTU (the standard) was added to the permit.
Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) Testing. This facility has "passed" annual toxicity testing for the last
five years ("Pass" or LC-50 >100). No changes to the permit recommended.
Review of EPA Methods 624/625. The Division reviewed_annual analytical data (for the years 2003
through 2005) reported from EPA test methods 624/625 (volatile and semi -volatile hydrocarbon
compounds). These test methods did not detect any of the listed parameters at the method levels of
detection.
RENEWAL SUMMARY
Turbidity — RP = Yes; max predicted 88.2 NTU (n = 10 / 10 hits); add permit limit of 50 NTU;
increase monitoring from quarterly to Monthly.
MTBE — delete from permit (monitoring for WS water only .. not Class C).
Naphthalene — add monthly monitoring to address diesel, per 2005 SOP.
EPA Methods 624/625 — delete monitoring from permit; parameters not detected.

NPDES Permit Renewal Application
Permit NC0074705
Williams Energy Ventures — Paw Creek
Mecklenburg County
The NPDES Unit received your permit renewal application on February 23, 2001. Thank you for submitting
this package.
The permit renewal for this facility will be assigned to a member of the NPDES Unit staff. That staff
member will contact you if further information is needed to complete the permit renewal. Please note that
the NPDES Unit has several vacant positions. This staff shortage has lasted for over a year and is delaying
all permit renewals. Our remaining permit writers are currently reviewing Authorizations to Construct,
speculative limit requests, major permit modifications and 201 plan updates ahead of permit renewals. This
is necessary due to a variety of factors, including mandatory deadlines in the statutes which govern our
program.
If this staff shortage delays reissuance of NC0074705 the existing requirements in your permit will remain
in effect until the permit is renewed (or the Division takes other action). We appreciate your patience and
understanding while we operate with a severely depleted staff. If you have any additional questions
concerning renewal of the subject permit, please contact me at [phone], extension 520.

This transmittal represents formal submittal for renewal of subject NPDES pemut, since it is currently due
to expire on August 31, 2001. This submittal is being made prior to the 180-day pre -expiration submittal
requirement. To this end, attached please find a completed original application (Short Form C), and two
complete copies of this cover letter and the application form. Furthermore, enclosed please find copies of
my authorization to prepare and submit the application for renewal.
Please note (at the subject listing above) that since our last correspondence, Williams Energy Ventures, Inc.
converted itself from a corporation to a partnership named Williams Terminals Holdings, L.P. A complete
notice per NC DENR requirement will follow in the very near future. However, since formation of the
partnership occurred on February 9, 2001, this letter and the enclosed Short Form C list the applicant as
Williams Terminals Holdings, L.P.
There have been no changes at the terminal that would affect operation under the NPDES permit since
issuance of the last NPDES permit. Furthermore, the terminal generates no sludge as a result of wastewater
treatment, so there is no NPDES sludge management plan for the terminal.
Please note that the enclosed Short Form C, at #10, lists the discharge point as "outfall 001". On the
"Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements" page of the current NPDES permit, the outfall is
listed as "serial number 001" whereas on the "Supplement to Pemut Cover Sheet", the outfall is listed as
"serial number 002". With regard to this permit, there is only one discharge point.
If there are any questions with regard to this submittal, I can be contacted at 918/574-8420.

Subject: NPDES Permit No, NC007470.5
Charlotte/Southern Facilities Terminal
Mecklenburg County, NC
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
Dear Mr. Morin:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0074705 was issued on July 30, 2001 for
the discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State from your facility. 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 are Pages 4 and 5,
Pages 4 and 5 set 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 reporting forms furnished or approved by this
Agency. If you have not received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive
the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent"
reporting form (DWQ Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form. It is imperative that
all applicable parts be completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required.
Please be advised that an annual administering and compliance monitoring fee may be required
for your facility. You will soon be receiving a statement from our Raleigh Office. It is imperative
that the fee be paid in a timely manner so as to prevent enforcement action or possible revocation of
your permit.
The remaining parts of the Permit 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 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 S25,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties) may be assessed for such violations.
If you find at any time that you are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit, you
should contact this Office immediately. A Special Order by Consent (SOC) may be necessary while
pursuing action to obtain compliance.
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 1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not automatically transferable. If you, as
the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that the Division of Water Quality
rescind the Permit or request that DWQ reissue the Permit to another party, if necessary.
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.

TER ILITY SECTION
Subject•. Issuance of NPDES Permit NC0074705
Charlotte/Southem Facilities Terminal
Mecklenburg County
Dear Mr. Monn:
Division of Water Quality (Division) personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject
permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). Please note the following changes from your draft permit, most
of which are the result of the Paw Creek hearing officer's recommendations:
• pH monitoring and limits have been removed from your permit. This was an error made in all of the Paw Creek draft
permits. The pH requirement was eliminated in the previous permitting cycle and should not have been included in the 2001
permits.
• The monthly monitoring requirement for naphthalene has been deleted. Semi-annual monitoring using EPA Method
625 replaces it. As per the hearing officer's report, 625 is the best method for detecting naphthalene and other middle distillate
compounds and is therefore a more appropriate monitoring requirement. If your facility collects eight to ten samples in which
none of the 625 compounds are detected, you may submit a request to the Division that this sampling requirement be eliminated.
• The phenol monitoring requirement was removed from your permit. This is a requirement for facilities discharging to water
supply waters and was incorrectly applied to this permit.
• Flow monitoring frequency has been changed from monthly to episodic. As per a request by the Mooresville Regional
Office, flow must be measured with each discharge event.
The Division believes that monthly monitoring of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) is not excessive. Semi-
annual monitoring through EPA Methods 624/625 does not provide the Division with sufficient data to assess the risk of effluent
from your facility exceeding the water quality criteria. Should the effluent samples at your facility continue to indicate non -detects for
BTEX compounds, you may submit a formal request to the Divison for a modification to the permit reducing the monitoring
frequency for these compounds. Additionally, all NPDES permits for oil terminals from this point onward will carry a monitoring
requirement for MTBE. Very little data are available on this contaminant; given that it is a potential public health concern, the
Division would like to monitor the concentrations of MTBE in all such discharges.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have
the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in
the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 15013 of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of
Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision
shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require modification or
revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act
or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Natalie Sierra at telephone number [phone],
extension 551.

1. Flow — During periods of no flow, the Permittee shall submit a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report
(DMR) indicating "No discharge." Flow should be monitored with each discharge event in one of
four ways:
a) measure flow continuously;
b) calculate flow based on total rainfall per area draining to the outfall; exclude built -upon
area (best method for facilities with large runoff -collection ponds);
c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or
d) report flow based on discharge pump logs.
2. Oil and Grease — Where possible, the grab sample for oil and grease should be skimmed from the
surface of a quiescent (calm water) zone.
3. Turbidity — Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. If receiving stream
background turbidity exceeds 50 NTU, effluent shall not cause this background value to increase.
4, Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minnow, 24-hour), Annual [see Special Condition A.(2.)].
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts.
There shall be no direct discharge of tank solids, tank bottom water, or the rag layer.
There shall be no direct discharge of tank (or pipe) contents following hydrostatic testing unless benzene
concentration is less than 71.4 µg/1 and toluene concentration is less than 11 µg/l.

EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY M©NIT©RING (ANNUAL)
The Permittee shall conduct annual toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in EPA Document
EPA/600/4-90/027 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)
24-hour static test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste
treatment. The permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January of
the calendar year of the effective date of the permit. The annual test requirement must be performed and
reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30, notification will be made to the Division by this
date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit
condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was
performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent
to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Environmental Sciences Branch
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine
of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of
the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re-
opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will
require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following
the month of the initial monitoring.

specified below.
Permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance necessary to operate the existing
facilities at optimum efficiency.
No later than 14 calendar days following a date identified in the above schedule of compliance, the
permittee shall submit either a report of progress or, in the case of specific actions being required by
identified dates, a written notice of compliance or noncompliance. In the latter case, the notice shall
include the cause of noncompliance, any remedial actions taken, and the probability of meeting the next
schedule requirements.

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority,: The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
2. DEM or "the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural
Resources.
. EMC 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 USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
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.
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.
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.
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 1 of the permit.

Part II
Page 2 of 11
6. 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 "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.
g.
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.
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.
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.
7. Other Measurements
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 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. Types of Samples
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

Part II
age 3 of 11
S. a. (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 he 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.
b. Grab 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.
9. Calculation of Means
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.
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 he one (1).
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.
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
may be 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:
Water Act.
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) ofthe Clean
SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Duty to Comply

Pursuant to Chapter 90A-44 of North. Carolina General Statutes, and upon classification of the facility by the
Certification Commission, the permittee shall employ a certified wastewater treatment plant operator in
responsible charge (ORC) of the wastewater treatment facilities. Such operator must hold a certification of the
grade equivalent to or greater than the classification assigned to the wastewater treatment facilities by the
Certification Commission. The permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type
and any grade to comply with the conditions of Title 15A NCAC Chapter 8G.0202. The ORC of the facility
must visit each Class I facility at least weekly and each Class II, III, and IV facility at least daily, excluding
weekends and holidays, and must properly manage and document daily operation and maintenance of the facility
and must comply with all other conditions of Title 15A, NCAC Chapter 8G.0202. Once the facility is classified,
the permittee shall submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates the operator in responsible
charge within thirty days after the wastewater treatment facilities are 50% complete.
2. Proper Operation and Maintenance
The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control
(and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the
conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and
appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities
or similar systems installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the
conditions of the permit.
3. 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. Bypassing of 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.

Part II
Page. 7of11
4. 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 Per
for bypass, unless:
ssuing Authority may take enforcement action against a permittee
(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.
5. Upsets
a. Definition: "Upset" 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 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 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 II, B. 2. of this permit.
d. Burden of proof: In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an
upset has the burden of proof.

Subject: Letter to Require Effluent
Turbidity Monitoring
Permit No. NC0074705
Charlotte Products Terminal
Mecklenburg County
Dear Ms. Baugher:
As you are aware, the turbidity monitoring requirement was eliminated from your
permit upon renewal in August 1996. Although turbidity monitoring was eliminated, total
suspended solids (TSS) monitoring with a limit remains in the peiinit. It was the Division's
contention that should monitoring data indicate TSS problems, the state has the option of
enforcing the instream standard for turbidity. However, the EPA is still concerned with the
removal of the turbidity monitoring requirement from several oil terminal discharge permits.
The following paragraphs address that concern.
During the research phase required for permit development, it was noted that the 14
permits in the Paw Creek area had vastly different requirements for solids measurements.
Peiiiiits contained any combination of total suspended solids (TSS), turbidity, and settleable
solids monitoring and/or limits. In an effort to provide consistency, TSS, turbidity, and
settleable solids results from six oil terminals in the Paw Creek area were examined from
July 1994 through September 1995. Results showed that TSS and turbidity exhibited
similar trends. Both pollutants appeared to increase and decrease at the same time. In
addition, for the period examined, there were no turbidity violations, although there were a
few TSS violations. These data resulted in the Division questioning whether monitoring
was necessary for both solids parameters. Was there an added benefit to requiring turbidity
monitoring in addition to TSS monitoring? The Division concluded that turbidity was
correlated with TSS results, and thus, only TSS monitoring with a limit was required. In
addition, North Carolina has a water quality standard for turbidity. Therefore, although
turbidity monitoring is not required in the discharge permits, the State still has the authority
to enforce the instream turbidity standard.

Based on concerns regarding anti -backsliding, the EPA requested the Division re-
examine the basis for the elimination of turbidity monitoring for 12 of the 14 Paw Creek
oil terminals that were required to monitor for turbidity prior to the most recent permit
renewal. This second examination of the data showed that there were turbidity standard
violations since the last analysis at several of the oil terminals. The Division will
investigate the causes of these violations to determine what steps may be necessary to
control solids levels at these sites. Therefore, the Division acknowledges that its second
evaluation resulted in a different outcome from the initial investigation and agrees that
turbidity monitoring should be added to the discharge permits for several of the oil
terminals. This letter serves as the official notice that quarterly turbidity monitoring
will be required at the facility effective March 1, 1999. If monitoring data show a
reasonable potential to violate water quality standards, then limits will be imposed upon
renewal.
If you have any questions concerning this change, please contact Bethany Bolt at

Footnotes:
Where no measurable discharge occurs, "no discharge" should be clearly noted on the submitted monthly discharge monitoring report.
Flow may be monitored in one of four ways:
a) Measure flow continuously,
b) Calculate flow based on the area draining to the outfall, the built upon area, and the total rainfall, (this method of flow measurement should
not be used at facilities that have large ponds to collect surface water runoff),
c) Estimate by flow measurement at 20 minute intervals during the entire discharge event, or
d) Base flow on pump logs.
2 Where possible, the grab sample for oil and grease should be skimmed from the surface of a quiescent (calm water) zone.
3 Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minnow, 24-hour) Monitoring, Annual, See Part III, Condition E.
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.
There shall be no direct discharge of tank solids, tank bottom water, or the rag layer.
There shall be no direct discharge of tank contents following hydrostatic testing unless benzene concentration is less than 71.4 ug/1 and toluene
concentration is less than 11 ug/1.

5. Mass/Day Measurements
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.
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.
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.

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 conform 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
'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 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.
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.
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.

Part II

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 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. Types 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.
b. Grab 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.
9. Calculation of Mew
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.
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
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.
10. Calendar Div
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. Hazardous Substance
12.

Section 311 of the .Clean Water Act.
A toxic polio
y
utant listed as toxic under Secti
a
Act.

2. Proper Operation and Maintenance
The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain ail facilities and systems of
treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to
achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also
includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This
provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems which are
installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the
conditions of the permit.
3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense
It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that tt would have been
necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the
condition of this permit.
4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
b.
(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.
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 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

Part II
Page 9 of 14
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.
5. Upsets
a. Definition.
"Upset " 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 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 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 II, B. 2. of this
Permit
d. Burden of proof.
In any enforcement proceeding the ing to establish the occurrence of an upset
has the burden of proof.
6. Removed Substances
Solids, sludges, 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

Part II
Page 10 of 14
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 permittee 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.
7. Power Failures
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.
SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS
1. Representative Sampling

average for the days the discharge actually occurs. Average
be supplied for pH, specific conductance, and
rameters (e.g , coliform bacteria).

minutes).
IC For composite sample * is to be replaced by the average
number of hours over which the composite sample was collected.
Composite samples are combinations of individual samples
obtained at intervals overa time period, either the volume of
each individual sample is directly proportional to discharge flow
rates or the sampling interval (for constant volume samples) is
inversely proportional to the flow rates over the time period
used to produce the composite,
NA If'C©NT' was entered in column 6.
Analytical methods - Appendix A contains a
their reporting levels, test descriptions, and references. The pa
values can be determined either by use of the standard analytical methods as
described in table A or by methods previously approved by the EPA Regional
Administrator or Director of a federally approved State program (or their
authorized representative) who has jurisdiction over the State in which the
discharge occurs. If the test used is not one shown in table A, the test
procedure should be referenced in 'Remarks* or on a separate sheet. If
values ere determined to be less than the detectable limits (as determined by
referenced standard analytical techniques and/or instrument manufacturer's
literature), specify 'LT(Value of detectable limit)' in the appropriate space.
For example, if the detectable limit is .005 mgf and quantities of less than
this are determined, specify 'LT.005.' Do not enter descriptors such as
'NIL,' 'TRACE,' 'NEG,' etc. for this purpose. If It is your reasoned
judgment that one or more of the required parameters is not present in the
initial untreated or treated process water and/or the discharge, enter an 'A'
(meaning 'absent) in the appropriate space.
In order for values reported to be representative, it is
recommended that they be based on from at least five to seven analyses of
composite sampies(if applicable). Each of the composite samples should be
obtained by compositing frequent samples in proportion to flow over an
operating day. Samples should be taken during period of maximum
production, if possible. If samples are taken at periods of less than
maximum production, state in 'Remarks' the percent of maximum
production that was obtained during the sampling period

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Environmental Management.
2. DEM or Division
Means the Division of Environmental Management, Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources.
3. EM.0
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
USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
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.
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.
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.

Part Il
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
"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 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.
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 1 of the permit.
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.

Part ll
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 meant 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 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. Types 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.
b. Grab 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.
9. Calculation of Means
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.
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
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.
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 may be 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.
SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Duty to Comply

Dear Mr. Bowie:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0074705 was
issued on August 20, 1993 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. 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 4.
Page 4 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) 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
reporting 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 forms, 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, and the
original and one copy be submitted as required.
The remaining Parts of the Permit 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 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 violation plus criminal penalties may
be assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that you
are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit,
you should contact this Office immediately. A Consent Order may be
necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
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 1 of the Permit. Also
note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If you, as the
Permittee, cease to need this Permit, 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.

SUBJECT: Conoco, Inc. -Charlotte Products Terminal
NPDES Permit No. NC0074705
Mecklenburg County
By cover letter dated August 20, 1993, the subject facility was issued NPDES
Permit No. NC0074705 with an effective date of September 1, 1993, and expiration date
of August 31, 1996. Upon review of the permit a discrepancy was noted in the required
test organism and length of test: the M3 page of the permit specifies a Daphnid 48 hour test
and Part III, condition E specifies a fathead minnow 24 hour test. This office recommends
a 24 hour static test employing a fathead minnow as the test organism.
Additionally, the information contained in the permit writing system may be
incorrect. The correct citation for EPA reference document 600/4-85/013 is entitled
"Methods for Measuring the= Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and Marine
Organisms." Part III, condition E cites the document as, "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents
to Freshwater and Marine Organisms."
I appreciate your assistance to undertake the necessary steps to modify the existing
permit and incorporate the recommendations cited above. Should you have any questions,
please feel free to contact me at 2136.

Monitoring will be conducted during normal work hours.
** All volumes of wastewater leaving the facility shall be monitored. If continuous flow monitoring is not feasible, then the discharger shall
record the approximate time that discharge began and ended, along with the instantaneous flow at the time of effluent sampling.
This Permit imposes no limitation of the discharge of storm water runoff uncontaminated by any industrial or commercial activity and not
discharged through any oil/water separator or other treatment equipment or facility.
*** The discharge shall not cause the turbidity of the receiving water to exceed 50 NTU. If the turbidity exceeds these levels due to natural
background conditions, the discharge level cannot cause any increase in the turbidity in the receiving water.
**** Acute Toxicity (Daphnid 48 hour) Monitoring, Episodic, See Part III, Condition E.
***** Monitoring shall be conducted during the first five discrete discharge events after the effective date of this Permit, and then on a monthly
basis thereafter, with one monitoring event occurring at the same time that the whole -effluent toxicitiy sample is collected.
The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units nor greater than 9.0 standard units and shall be monitored 2/month at the effluent by grab
samples.
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.

Part III Permit No. NC0074705
E. ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (EPISODIC)
The permittee shall conduct FIVE acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in
E.P.A. Document 600/4-85/013 entitled "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a single grab sample. Effluent samples
for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste treatment. Sampling and
subsequent testing will occur during the first five discrete discharge events after the effective date
of this permit. After monitoring of the first five toxicity tests, the permittee will conduct one test
annually, with the annual period beginning in January of the next calendar year. The annual test
requirement must be performed and reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30,
notification will be made to the Division by this date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the
next discharge event for the annual test requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is
to be sent to the following address:
Attention:
Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North.
Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream,
this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum
control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test.
Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Miscellaneous information pertinent to the renewal or new permit for this discharge. Include
relationship to the Basinwide Management Plan.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS OR CONDITIONS
Permit must contain flow monitoring requirement such that all volumes of wastewater leaving the
facility are monitored. If continuous monitoring is not feasible, then discharger shall record the
approximate times that discharge began and ended, along with instantaneous flow at the time of
effluent samcing: Monit©ring for all toxicants should be performed during the first five discrete
discharge events (monthly thereafter) after the effective date of the NPDES permit. Monitoring
should occur at the same time that the whole -effluent toxicitiy sample is collected during the
discharge event (samples should be collected within 24 hours of the beginning of the event).
WASTELOAD SENT TO EPA? (Major) (Y or N)
(If yes, then attach schematic toxics spreadsheet, copy of model, or if not modeled, then old

ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (EPISODIC)
The pemuttee shall conduct FIVE acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in
E.P.A. Document 600/4-85/013 entitled "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a single grab sample. Effluent samples
for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste treatment. Sampling and
subsequent testing will occur during the first five discrete discharge events after the effective date
of this permit. After monitoring of the first five toxicity tests, the permittee will conduct one test
annually, with the annual period beginning in January of the next calendar year. The annual test
requirement must be performed and reported by June 30. If no discharge occurs by June 30,
notification will be made to the Division by this date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the
next discharge event for the annual test requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is
to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch

Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream,
this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum
control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test.
Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Aet, also known as thv Clean Water Act, as
amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq.
5. NasDaMeasuremntS
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 sample and measured, divided by the. number
of daily discharges samples 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 "Daily Average" or "Monthly Average" in Part 1 of the
permit.
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 samples 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
limitotion is identified as. "Weekly Average' in Part T of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a
pollutant discharged during a calendat 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 definedas 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 1 of the permit.

Part Il
Page 12 of 14
6. Concentration Pleasurernent
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform
bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all dnily discharges
samples 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 mann 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" or
"Daily 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
concentrationof 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 1 of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant
discharge during a calendar day. It is identified as "Daily Maximum"
under "Other Limits" in Part 1 of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other thnn for fecal coliform bacteria,
is the sum of the concentrations of all daily dischargoa 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 Port 1 of the
permit.

Part II
Page 13 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 both the sample and flow will be representative of the
total discharge.
Ty s of Samples
a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at
equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, n sample continuously
collected proportionally to•flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time
intervals. If a. composite sample .is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals between effluent grab
samples shall he no greater than hourly except. where the detention time
of the wastewater in the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which
case, the interval between. grab samples shall be no greater in number of
hours than the detention time in number of days; provided, however, in
no case may the time between effluent grab samples he greater than six
hours nor the number of grab samples less than four during any discharge
period of 24 hours or less.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a
period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken
manually.
9. Calculation of Means
a. ArithmeticMean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation
of the individual 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).
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 14 of 14
10. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one dray 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. 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 Poll
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under. Section 307(a)(1) of
the Clean. Water Act.

Dear Sir/Madam:
RE: NPDES Permit Application
Conoco Inc. - Charlotte Products Terminal
Please find attached a permit application and permit application fee of
$150.00 for the discharge of storm water from the referenced facility to
the surface waters of North Carolina.
The facility consists of a diked tank farm area and a truck loading rack
with attendant oil/water separator. Both of these sources contribute to
the discharge of water from the facility.
Storm water intercepted by the truckrack area passes through an oil/water
separator and is retained in the diked area and inspected for sheen prior
to discharge.

Storm water from the diked tank farm area is retained, inspected for sheen,
and if no sheen is visible, the storm water then is discharged. If a
sheen were observed on the water surface within the diked area, the water
would not be discharged and an investigation into the source of the
hydrocarbon sheen would be initiated. All sheen (if present) would be
removed for disposal/treatment prior to discharge. All discharged water
flows into an unnamed tributary to Paw Creek.
In addition to the completed Form C, attached also are authority delegation
letters that grant signature authority to the Director of Environmental
Affairs.

Subject: NPDES Permit. No. NC 0074705
Conoco, Inc.
Mecklenburg County, NC
Dear Mr. Hubbard:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0074705 was
issued on October 31, 1988 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. 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 13.
Page I3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) 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 resultin 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 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 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,
