Dear. Permittee:
The facility listed above is covered under NPDES General Permit NCG500000. NCG500000 expires
on July 31, 2007.. Federal (40 CFR 122.41).and North Carolina (15A NCAC 2H.0105(e)) regulations require
that permit renewal applications must. be filed at least 180 days, prior to expiration of the current permit. If
you have already mailed a renewal request; you may disregard this notice.
To satisfy, this requirement; -the Division must receive a renewal request postmarked -no later than
February 1; 2007. Failure to request renewal by this date may result. in a civil :penalty assessment.. Larger .' .
penalties may be assessed depending .upon the delinquency of the request. This renewal notice is being. sent .
well in advance of the due date so that you have adequate time .to prepare your -application.
If any discharge previously covered under NCG500000.will occur 'after July 31, 2007, the
CoC.must be renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North'Carolina
General Statute 143-215.1; unpermitted discharges of wastewater may be assessed civil penalties of up to .
$25,000 per day.
If all discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this CoC [or if you have other
questions], contact me at thetelephone number or e-mail address listed below.'

Subject: Renewal Application
NPDES: NCG500041
Formerly: NCO073245
Iredell County
This letter is to acknowledge receipt of your renewal application for Bartlett Milling Company's
NPDES permit, and to also inform you that this facility qualifies for coverage under the newly issued
General Permit. Your discharge fits into one of the general permit categories. Therefore, the subject
facility has been assigned the new permit number highlighted above.
On July 31, 1992, the Division of Environmental Management issued general permits for a number
of process related discharges and stormwater discharges. A general permit is a permit issued by the state
to cover a category of dischargers, such as mine pit dewatering,, noncontact cooling waters and boiler
blowdown discharges, groundwater remediation, sand dredging operations, seafood and freshwater fish
packing and rinsing and fish farms, and stormwater discharges. These general permits have been taken to
public notice and issued in accordance with the North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC 2H
.0100) and the Memorandum of Agreement between EPA and the state.
Typically, an application for coverage under these general permits consists of completion of the
Notice of Intent (NOI) application form and submittal of the form with the appropriate application fee.
After receipt of the application, the state will review the information and make a determination of the
applicability of the general permit to your specific discharge. We will evaluate you application for
individual permit, received on September 22, 1992 as if for coverage under the general permit. If the
discharge is deemed appropriate for coverage under the general permit, you will be issued a certificate of
coverage under the general permit. Processing time for the issuance of a certificate of coverage is expected
to be less than 90 days as compared to 180 days for the individual application process.

to issue the permit is less. Issuance of a general permit for this facility is contingent upon approval from
our regional office staff.

Dear Mr. Paslay:
This letter is to acknowledge receipt of your renewal application for Bartlett Milling Company's
NPDES permit, and to also inform you that this facility qualifies for coverage under the newly issued
General Permit. Your discharge fits into one of the general permit categories. Therefore, the subject
facility has been assigned the new permit number highlighted above.
On July 31, 1992, the Division of Environmental Management issued general permits for a number
of process related discharges and stormwater discharges. A general permit is a permit issued by the state
to cover a category of dischargers, such as mine pit dewatering, noncontact cooling waters and boiler
blowdown discharges, groundwater remediation, sand dredging operations, seafood and freshwater fish
packing and rinsing and fish farms, and stormwater discharges. These general permits have been taken to
public notice and issued in accordance with the North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC 2H
.0100) and the Memorandum of Agreement between EPA and the state.
Typically, an application for coverage under these general permits consists of completion of the
Notice of Intent (NOI) application form and submittal of the form with the appropriate application fee.
After receipt of the application, the state will review the information and make a determination of the
applicability of the general permit to your specific discharge. We will evaluate you application for
individual permit, received on September 22; 1992 as if for coverage under the general permit. If the
discharge is deemed appropriate for coverage under the general permit, you will be issued a certificate of
coverage under the general permit. Processing time for the issuance of a certificate of coverage is expected
to be less than 90 days as compared to 180 days -for the individual application process.

5. Mass/Dav 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 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 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 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
limitation is ident,ifiedas "Weekly Average" in Part. 1" of the permit.
C. The "maximum daily discharge" is the. total mass (weight:) of a
pollutant discharged during a cal(=radar clay. If only cite sample is
taken during any calendar day the weight of pol.l.uttant calculated from
i.t'is the "maximum daily discharge." This limit-.ation is identified as
"Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as tl).e. 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
"A.nnual. Average" in Part I of the permit.

Part II
Page 12 of .14
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for .faecal coliform
bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of al.l daily 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 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 a.11 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 di!.,;char.ges 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 measu..red during such week (arithmetic mw an 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. It is identified as "Daily Maximum"
under "Other Limits" in Part I of the r,ermit.
d. The "average annual. concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria,
is the sum of the concentrations of all daily di.schar.ges 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 I of the
permit.

Page 13 of 14
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.
Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at
equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, a 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 be 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 be 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.
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

Subject: NPDES'Permit No. NC 0073245
Barlett Milling Company
Iredell County, NC
Dear Mr. Paslay:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC 0073245 was
issued on May 2, 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 I3.
Page I3 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge. Your discharge must not exceed
any of the limitations set forth. The section headed "Monitoring
Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types
and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your discharge (or
operation), you must initiate the required monitoring. The
monitoring results must be entered on the DMR forms furnished to
you by this Agency. If you have not received these forms, they
should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the form,
please contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have
enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form (DEM Form
MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form. It is
imperative that all applicable parts be completed, otherwise the
forms may be returned to you as incomplete. Failure to properly
complete the forms may also result in an automatic $300.00 fine.
The remaining Parts of the Permit (Parts II and III) set
forth definitions, general conditions and special conditions
applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities

-and/or discharge(s). The conditions include special reporting
requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment
unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for
a certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you 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,
i�
