A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs continually without interruption throulghout 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 I 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 • Part II ® Page 3of11 8. a. (2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour ieriod with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the jsampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow corder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than I I24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab sample; except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time o effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly sp,, equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater samples less than four (4) during a 24-hour sampling period. b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be receiving waters. 9. Calculation of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the by the number of individual values. to the rate of flow. samples shall be no greater than ll be no greater than once per hour ater than 24 hours. In such cases, over the 24-hour period which are .ber of days. However, in no case six (6) hours nor the number of of time not exceeding 15 minutes; entative of the discharge or the of the individual values divided b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the N ilroot of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geo ietric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. F I purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1). c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. 10. Calendar Day: A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight o However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period th may be used for sampling. 11.

The Division finds the conclusions of the Analysis to be acceptable and has made a tentative determination to issue a new discharge permit for the facility. We are enclosing a copy of the draft permit for your review and comment. At this time, the Division is also submitting a notice to the newspaper(s) of general circulation in Rutherford County, inviting public comment on the draft permit. The notice is scheduled to be published on or about March 19th. Following a 30-day comment period, we will review all pertinent comments received and take appropriate action on the permit renewal. Please provide any comments you have regarding the draft permit to this office no later than April 18, 2003. 1 The conditions in the draft permit are much the same as in the permit previously held by Galey & Lord Industries, Inc. for the facility. The permit includes several changes, however, in addition to the change in ownership: • The flow limit is reduced to 0.00245 MGD (2,450 gpd), as requested, to reflect the elimination of the process wastewater and boiler blowdown discharges at Outfall 001. • The temperature limiti and monitoring requirements at Outfall 001 are deleted. Temperature ' is no longer a concernisince the facility no longer uses boilers in its operations. • The permit includes anew limit for Total Residual Chlorine. The NC Environmental Management Commission recently adopted a water quality standard for chlorine, and all NPDES dischargers using chlorine will receive a limit with their next permit renewal. • The requirements for use of biocides at the facility are consolidated in a new Condition A.(3.).

The facility was formerly owned and operated by Galey and Lord Industries, Iric., and was permitted to discharge under Permit NC0006009. Proposed revisions include tAe ownership change and changes in effluent limits due to elimination of process wastewater discharges. FACILITY OVERVIEW Parkdale America, LLC, is the new owner of a textiles facility in Caroleen, Rutherford County. The facility was formerly owned 'and operated by Galey and Lord Industries, Inc. and was permitted to discharge under Permit NC0006009. That permit was last issued November 9,1998, and was scheduled to expire July 31, 2003. The permit was rescinded October 15, 2001, when the facility closed. I I Under Galey and Lord, the facility manufactured yarn from cotton and synthetic fibers and dyed that product on -site (SIC 2281). It treated and discharged process (dyeing) wastewater, boiler blowdown, and sanitary wastes to the Second Broad River at Outfall 001; and discharged cooling tower blowdown at Outfall 002. This portion of the river is a Class WS-IV water. In August 2002, Parkdale America resumed essentially the same textile operation as the previous owner, except that there will be no discharge of process wastewaters (the dyeing operation has been moved to another facility). Since start-up, the facility has transported its wastewater (under a pump -and -haul permit from 1the Division) to another site for treatment and discharge and will continue until issuance of this permit. The company completed its NPDES permit application and analysis of discharge alternatIives in January 2003. The existing 0.018 MGD treatment plant is a septic tank/ surface sand filter system with chlorine disinfection and tablet dechlorination. The plant will be used to treat an estimated 2,450 gpd of sanitary wastes. I I - 1 - I Cooling tower blowdown (approx. 1,050 gpd) will again be subject to restrictions on the use of biocides. Compliance History No compliance issues in the previous permit cycle. See Fact Sheet PROPOSED PERMIT REQUIREMENTS The proposed permit requirements are essentially the same as those permit. Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements Table 1 summarizes the most recent and the proposed permit limits for the facility. Proposed changes are highlighted in the table. The flow limit for Outfall 001 is reduced to reflect the elimination of discharge and boiler blowdown. The temperature limit and monitor temperature is no longer a concern since the facility will no longer u The permit includes a new limit for Total Residual Chlorine. The N( Commission recently adopted a water quality standard for chlorine, using chlorine will receive a limit at their next permit renewal.

I The facility had been complletely pumped on January 13, 2003. This would normally suffice for two to three days. Unfortunately, due to a.broken valve, we received an unordinary large amount of fresh water from our county water system for which we did not need nor could we handle. This pure water was sent directly to the pump facility causing an overflow and discharge of pure, unused water to the river. Immediately, when Mr. Edwards informed us of the discharge, the pump facility was pumped and emptied. Upon investigation, the valve was repaired, the high water alarm, which had been damaged by fallen limbs due to ice, was repaired, andja daily visual inspection was implemented.

The wastewater treatment plant consists of a septic tank, holding tank, dosing tank, sand filters, chlorinator, and a dechlorinator. Parkdale America desires to obtain a NPDES permit to discharge treated wastewater into the Second Broad River. The facility was formerly owned and operated by Galey and Lord, who cancelled their wastewater permit (NPDES Permit No. 0006009) when the facility was closed in October 2001. Parkdale America proposes to operate the -facility (manufacturing and wastewater treatment) -in the same manner as the previous owner.. Parkdale America desires to, use', the existing facilityto treat wastewater, which consists of sanitary waste and cooling tower. blowdown. It is estimated that 70% of the total wastewater discharge will be domestic with the balance being cooling to, blowdown. It is projected that the facility will generate 3,500 gallons per day of wastewater. This.. wastewater will be treated using filtration and chlorination and dechlorination. After treatment, the wastewater will be discharged to the Second Broad River (Outf4001).. The facility also has six cooling towers that will also discharge to the Second Broad River (Outfall 002). An Engineering Alternatives Analysis evaluating has been included with the application. The land based disposal option is not feasible because there is insufficient suitable land since the facility is located in the flood plain. Even if it were feasible, the present value of costs would be greater than the surface water discharge option. The option ofj connection to an existing sewer system is not feasible because the closest municipality is private and, would not allow connection to existing sewer lines. Also, in the event that a connection were possible, the present value of costs would be greater than the surface water discharge option. Wastewater reuse is an;option that would be explored pending examination of the composition of the wastewater after startup of the treatment facility. The Analysis demonstrates that surface water discharge is the most feasible of the disposal options evaluated. S.•101601Projectll002116020331Summary.doc TBiGGNENGR&EmGCONsumAms ING 2. 3. .4. 5. 6.

Distance: 2 to 3 miles' *NOTE: All connection options should include an -evaluation of both a gravity line as well as a . force main with, pump station(s). �I (a) Provide a descripti o n of sewer facilities ' and resources necessary to connect to the receiving wastewater treatment plant According to Richard Young (engineer for Cone Mills), Cliffside Sanitation District has an existing �. sewer line behind Hayes Memorial Church in Avondale. A. sewer line from the Parkdale America facility in Caroleen 'to the Haynes Memorial Church in Avondale would have to be constructed in order for Parkdale America to connect with the existing line. Since the topography will not facilitate f " a gravity fed system, at least two pump stations will have to be constructed to transport the - wastewater to the connection at Avondale. There is no existing municipal wastewater treatment plant sewer line within a five mile radius. The closest line is in Forest City, which is approximately 10 miles from the Parkdale America facility. (b) Provide a pre lumnary .indication of flow acceptance from municipal or" private WWTPs under consideration for connection. If a municipal or private WWTP cannot accept the wastewater, please explain. The closest WtiVTP (private or municipal) is Cliffside Sanitation District. According to Arthur Toompas, Corporate Environmental Manager for Cone. Mills, the wastewater from Parkdale America can laccepted, by the Cliffside Sanitation District because the expansion, capacity is reserved for the Cone Mills Cl iside facility.

The NPDES Unit has not received a permit application from Parkdale America for the former Galey & Lord/Caroleen site. Any permit application should include the following items: 1. The correct application fee. Fees must be paid -by check to NC DENR (see attached fee schedule). 2. An evaluation of alternatives to discharge is required for all new permits. Consult the attached guidance document for preparation of Engineering Alternatives Analyses (EAAs). 3. The owner (owner, principal executive officer or general partner) of the proposed facility must sign the completed application. If your firm has been designated as the applicant's Authorized Representative, we will need that confirmed inlwriting. 4. Attach a site map clearly showing the proposed discharge point (a section of a USGS topo map is preferred). You stated that the application was likely submitted without an EAA or the permit fee. The application will be returned without those items. It is critically important that a thorough EAA accompany any permit application. While the NPDES Unit has historical data about the proposed site, the limits and monitoring frequencies assigned to the previous permittee may be revised based on the new operation to be placed at the facility. If you have any questions, simply reply to this message.

The site is the closed Galey & Lord plant in Caroleen, Rutherford County. Galey & Lord requested the permit (NC000609) be rescinded, thei rescission letter was mailed out October 15, 2001. The discharge will be the same as when Galey & Lord had the plant in operation. I hope this information can expedite the re -issuance of the permit. Please let me know when you receive the application as I do not want) to issue a pump & haul:'. permit until we (DWQ) has an application;fori the NPDES permit. Let me know if I can be of assistance.
