Box 240908 Charlotte, North Carolina 28224 Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO086606 The Harbour — Wells #4 WTP Iredell County Facility Classification PC-1 Dear Mr. Konsul: 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 Carolinaand the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). Thank you for your expedited response to my email dated August 12, 2013. Regarding your two comments made on the final permit the Division offers the following responses. NPDES understands that a discharge from Ion Exchange backwash is not always predictable. As a result, many Ion Exchange Ps choose to initiate a manual backwash Arid proceed t— collect aliquot samples at spaced - intervals to obtain a representative sample. Some Ion Exchange WTPs have chosen to install composite samplers to decrease the operator responsibilities but this can be costly. NPDES appreciates your efforts to schedule sampling visits to coincide with expected backwashing or to manually place the softeners into backwash mode in order to collect a sample. The Division does find this practice to be _acceptab_ le.Note that—a_representative sample is considered.to be the wastewater being discharged _and not the static wastewater in the holding tank. Regarding your comment on turbidity sampling, please note that in a letter dated Feb. 25, 2009 from EPA Region IV the state is obligated to put turbidity monitoring in the NPDES permit.

An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer onit NhCarolina Naturallff Page 2 of 3 satisfies testing regulations cited in NC Administrative Code 15A 2B .0500..It is recommended that the test be performed using a turbidity meter. All the changes made in this permit renewal as compared to the current permit are as follows: • The receiving waterbody is not listed as Nutrient Sensitive Waters and the maximum discharge flow is less than 0.05 MGD. Therefore, per the Water Treatment Plant Strategy, Total Phosphorus and Total Nitrogen monitoring have been removed from the permit. • Ammonia- nitrogen monitoring was removed from the permit since sampling results did not show significant concentration levels of ammonia -nitrogen in the effluent. • Flow monitoring has been increased to twice a month and a footnote was added to the permit stating that flow shall be measured the same date samples are collected for analysis. If an instantaneous sample is collected the duration of the discharge event shall be recorded in a log book and available for inspection. • Monthly Turbidity monitoring has been added to the permit in accordance with a letter received from EPA Region IV dated Feb. 25, 2009 and in accordance with Administrative Code Section 15A NCAC 2B .0500. • Footnote number 3 was amended under Section A (L) to include the following statement: TRC limit and monitoring requirement only apply if chlorine is used for disinfection. The Permittee shall report all effluent TRC values reported by a NC -certified laboratory [including field - certified]. Effluent values below 50 µg/L will be treated as zero for compliance purposes. • The wording in Section A. (2.) has been changed and the following paragraph added: If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the data submitted on the Discharge Monitoring Report and all AT Forms submitted. . • Copper, zinc, and iron effluent samples reported from May 2008 through June 2011 showed reasonable potential to violate North Carolina Water Quality Standards. Since copper, zinc, and iron have Action Level standards and should be reviewed in conjunction with quarterly toxicity testing, it is recommended that monitoring for these parameters remain in the NPDES permit at a reduced monitoring frequency of quarterly. It is anticipated, that discharge alternatives assessed as __p_art_of the_Discharge Alternatives Evaluation, will likely eliminate toxicity failures in the effluent as well. • Effluent sampling data evaluated from May 2008 to June 2011 for lead, manganese, chloride, and total dissolved solids showed reasonable potential to violate North Carolina Water Quality Standards for all these parameters.

This assessment is outlined in a special condition in Section A.(3) Discharge Alternatives Evaluation. The evaluation findings are to be submitted to the Division within four years of the effective date of this permit and the findings will be used in drafting the next permit renewal. The Division recognizes that determining both how to comply Page 3 of 3 with WQS's and provide residents with safe, acceptable and clean drinking water is a complex issue. This evaluation is being requested to determine whether there are any economical and technologically feasible alternatives available to the Permittee to comply with NC Water Quality Standards. • The wording in Section A.(3) Discharge Alternatives Evaluation was modified as compared to the wording in the email sent on August 12, 2013. Changes were requested in an effort to more clearly state the objective of,the Discharge Alternatives Evaluation. Please review it carefully. • Section A. (4.) Alternatives Evaluation Re -opener was added to the permit to identify to the Permittee that the Division may re -open this permit to include the findings from the Discharge Alternatives Evaluation in the form of a compliance schedule. • The Supplement to -Cover was corrected as requested. 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.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL MONITORING (QUARTERLY) The permittee shall conduct quarterly chronic toxicity tests using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised December 2010, or subsequent. versions. The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure document is 90 %. The testing shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 7-day pass/fail test. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September, and December. These months signify the first month of each three month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, N.C. 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 there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately. Upon submission of a valid test, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit maybe 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, minimum control organism reproduction, 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. Page 4 of 5 Permit NCO086606 A. (3.) DISCHARGE ALTERNATIVES EVALUATION In an effort to comply with North Carolina Water Quality Standards (WQS) for the following parameters: chloride, manganese, lead, and total dissolved solids; the Permittee shall assess potential discharge alternatives. It is recommended that the evaluation thoroughly assess 3 to 4 of the following alternatives: 1. Connect discharge to a WWTP: Determine whether the wastewater can be discharged to a Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) or pumped and hauled to a WWTP. Approval or disapproval from the municipality should be acquired. ; 2. Obtain a Non -discharge permit: Eliminate the surface water discharge by obtaining a non -discharge permit for spray irrigation, infiltration, or subsurface disposal (on -site drainfield, infiltration gallery, injection wells). 3. Install Wastewater Treatment: Install improved wastewater treatment to enable the facility effluent to consistently comply with Water Quality Standards. If this is not technically feasible or cost prohibitive, please explain and provide estimated costs: 4. Use Alternative Water Source: Obtain drinking water from another source (nearest County, City, or Town or other wells) so either the discharge is eliminated or compliance with WQS's is achieved. 5. Use Alternative Water Treatment Method: Install alternative and/or innovative water treatment methods or operational improvements that do not produce noncompliant wastewaters. 'For example, installing a recycle iron/manganese filtration system with no discharge. 6. Discharge to a Larger stream: Relocate the facility's'discharge to a larger receiving stream and determine if limits can be achieved given the increased dilution. 7. Combination of Alternatives: Employ any combination of the alternatives listed above that would result in achieving compliance with Water Quality Standards. The evaluation shall include a present value of costs analysis for all technologically feasible options as outlined in the Division's "Engineering Alternatives Analysis Guidance Document." This Document can be found at: http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/­swp/­ps/­npdes/pc=its. This evaluation is being requested to determine whether there are any economical and technologically, feasible alternatives available to the Permittee to comply with NC Water Quality Standards. If one or two discharge alternatives are available to the Permittee, please identify the preferred alternative and an estimated timeline for implementation. The Permittee shall submit the Discharge Alternatives Evaluation to the Division at the address listed below four years after the effective date of this permit (by October 2, 2017).

Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass 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. Calendar Day 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. Calendar Week The period from Sunday through the following Saturday. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. 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 Version 1110912011 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 2 of 18 (4) Constant time/constant 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 15 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. For pollutants expressed in other units of measurement, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the average measurement of the pollutant over the day. (40 CFR 122.2; see also "Composite Sample," above.) 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.

[15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(14)] Pass Through A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)] Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization. This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T .0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 0211 .0903(b)(26)] "Significant Industrial User" or "SIU" An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(33)]: 1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary, noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or 2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS and ammonia; or 3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or 4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options; 5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a Significant Industrial User (SIU); or 6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a non -significant categorical Industrial User. Section B. Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) Version 1110912011 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 15 of 18 All POTW.s must provide adequate notice to the Director of the following [40 CFR 122.42(b)]: Any new introduction of pollutants into the POTW from an indirect discharger, regardless of the means of transport, which would be subject to section 301 or 306 of CWA if it were directly discharging those pollutants; and Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced by an indirect discharger as influent to that POTW at the time of issuance of the permit. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality and quantity of effluent introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact that may result from the change of the quantity or quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW.

Box 240908 Charlotte, North Carolina 28224 Subject: DraftNPDES Permit Permit NCO086606 The Harbor Well #4 WTP Iredell County Facility Classification PC-1 Dear Mr. Konsul: Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft permit for your facility. Please review the draft very carefully to ensure that you thoroughly understand the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following changes from your current permit: • The receiving waterbody is not subject to Nutrient Sensitive Waters Classification, and the maximurn, monthly average discharge flow is less than 0.05 MGD. Therefore, per the Water Treatment Plant Strategy, Total Phosphorus and Total Nitrogen monitoring have been removed from the permit. DMR results reported for Total Phosphorus were less than 0.19 mg/L and for Total Nitrogen the maximum reported value was less than 2.3 mg/L. • The maximum DMR result reported for ammonia- nitrogen was less than 0.16 mg/L, so ammonia - nitrogen monitoring was removed from the permit per the Water Treatment Plant Strategy Guidelines. • Flow monitoring has been increased to twice a month and a footnote was added to the permit stating that flow shall be measured the same date samples are collected for analysis. • Monthly Turbidity monitoring has been added to the permit in accordance with a letter received from EPA Region IV dated Feb. 25, 2009 and in accordance with Administrative Code Section 15A NCAC 2B .0500. • Footnote number 3 was amended under Section A (1.) to include the following statement: TRC limit and monitoring requirement only apply if chlorine is used for disinfection. The Permittee shall report all effluent TRC values reported by a NC -certified laboratory [including field -certified], Effluent values below 50 µg/L will be treated as zero for compliance purposes. • The wording in Section A. (2.) has been changed and the following paragraph added: If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the data submitted on the Discharge Monitoring Report and all AT Forms submitted. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

A special condition in Section A.(3.) has been added to this permit allowing five years before the new permit limitations become effective. It also requires that the permittee perform an interim evaluation to assess the feasibility and costs of complying with the limits. This evaluation should consider the feasibility and costs of a variety of options such as: installing wastewater treatment to meet the limitations, using other wastewater disposal alternatives, installing an alternative potable treatment method, or obtaining drinking water from another source. The evaluation report and the alternative selected by the pennittee to comply with the new limitations shall be sent to DWQ three years after the permit becomes effective. Concurrent with this transmittal, the Division will solicit public comment on this draft as required by the EPA by publishing a notice in newspapers having circulation in the general Iredell County area.

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. 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 information are also available at http://l12o.enr.state.ne.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.

Alan _USE Klimek, P.E., Director March 14, 2005 _ MAR 2 2 2005 Mr. Martin Lashua Carolina Water Services, Inc. of NC P.O. Box 240908 Charlotte, NC 28224 �tt,I dVl4fl13 La6V Qwa°. Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO086606 The Harbour — Well #4 WTP Iredell County Dear Mr. Lashua: Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES 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). In response to your questions/comments on the draft permit: ➢ A summary of our permitting strategy for ion -exchange water treatment plants was included with your draft permit. In your comments you indicated the "permitting strategy appears flawed." The full workgroup findings, along with the participants involved on the workgroup, is available on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/documents.html. The 77-page document is entitled "Assessment and Recommendations for Water Treatment Plant Permitting: Findings of the Water Treatment Plant Workgroup." The new permitting strategy for water treatment plants affects all membrane and sodium cycle cationic exchange water treatment plants regardless of the facility's compliance history. ➢ We understand that the new requirements will increase man-hours and costs associated with the operation of your facility. The new requirements are an attempt by the Division to collect more information about the nature of your discharge so that we can properly characterize your effluent, as well as the effect your discharge may have on the receiving water. These requirements are consistent for all water treatment plants using ion exchange technology. By requiring monthly monitoring for the new parameters, we aim to minimize the disruption to your operations while still gathering important data. We do not believe that these requirements pose an impractical burden on a properly operated facility. The Division wilTre-evaluate the monitoring requirements at the next permit renewal in 2010. ➢ Please contact Jim Meyer in the Lab Certification Branch at (919) 733-3908, extension 207 with any questions about the procedure for obtaining specific parameter certifications or for obtaining a list of certified laboratories. ➢ In your comments you indicated there is no upstream or downstream flow in the receiving water, except during rain events. The stream monitoring requirement will remain in the permit. However, if when sampling is conducted there is no stream flow, then simply indicate "No Flow" on the monitoring report. ➢ With regard to your comment that the conductivity monitoring requirement has been removed from "Most all NPDES permits," this is not entirely correct. The instream monitoring requirement for conductivity was removed from those NPDES permits with 100% domestic wastewater only. Your facility, an ion -exchange water treatment plant, does not fall into this category, and hence is still subject to the instream conductivity monitoring requirement. North Carolina Division of Water Quality vanessa.manuel@ncmail.net - (919) 733-5083, x532 1617 Mail Service Center FAX (919) 733-0719 Raleiah. North Carolina 27699-1617 On the Internet at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ CWS, Inc. — The Harbour Well #4 WTP NPDES permit NCO086606 ➢ As indicated in the transmittal letter with the draft permit, a total residual chlorine (TRC) limit has been added to the permit. The TRC limit will not take effect until eighteen (18) months after the effective date of the final permit. This eighteen (18) month grace period, which will conclude on September 30, 2006, will allow you the needed time to make any modifications to your plant as well as time to purchase new equipment or to find a certified laboratory able to conduct the TRC analysis. The Divisions TRC policy memo was included with your draft permit. ➢ In your comments you objected to the need for the chronic toxicity testing requirement. You stated, "We oppose �Iny testing requirement for parameters that do not have a proposed limit." Again we understand the requirements will increase man-hours and costs associated with the operation of your facility. The new requirements are an attempt by the Division to collect more information about the nature of your discharge so that we can properly characterize your effluent, as well as the effect your discharge may have on the receiving stream. At this time, your permit currently includes chronic toxicity monitoring. This is not a "pass/fail" test; rather the purpose is to gather information about the nature of your discharge. We need to determine whether your effluent discharge has a toxic effect on the receiving stream. Based on the data gathered, we will be able to determine whether or not future limits will be required. At this time we do not have sufficient information to make this determination. The Division may re-evaluate this monitoring requirement at the next permit renewal in 2010. This permit includes a TRC limit that will take effect on October 1, 2006. 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 150B 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 Vanessa Manuel at (919) 733-5083, extension 532.

Until the limit becomes effective, the permittee shall monitor Total Residual Chlorine (with no effluent limit). 3. See Special Condition A. (2.) below. All samples must be collected from a typical discharge event. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. Permit NCO086606 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERNHT MONITORING (Quarterly) The permittee shall conduct quarterly chronic toxicity tests using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure document is 90%. The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September, and December. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. 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, N.C. 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 there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately. Upon submission of a valid test, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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, minimum control organism reproduction, 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. NPDES Permit Requirements Page 1 of 16 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS Section A. Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. Annual Average The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass 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. Calendar Div 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. Calendar Quarter One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 100 nil 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 time/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 during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. Version 612012003 NPDES Permit Requirements Page 2 of 16 In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more 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 intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples map not exceed six hours nor the number of samples less than four 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 122.3) 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. The Division expects that 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). DWQ or "the Division" The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Naturaf Resources. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. Facility Closure The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility, or the cessation of all activities that require coverage under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded. Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection level]") shall be considered = 1. Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. Instantaneous flow measurement A measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. Version 6/20/2003 NPDES Permit Requirements . Page 3 of 16 Monthly Average concentration limitl The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Average concentration limit), The average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe ,property damage 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 excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. U set An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Permittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements. An upset does not include noncompliance caused by operational error, improperly designed .treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. Weekly Average concentration limit), The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar week. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1. Duty to Comply The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit.

Spray irrigation: Insufficient area, Catawba River buffer concerns. b. Connect to regional sewer system: none presently available. C. Subsurface: Limited area is available. It should also be noted that there is essentially no organic material in the wastewater that would help establish anaerobic decomposition in a septic tank. Therefore, subsurface disposal is not being considered as an option at this time. d. Other disposal options: N/A PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The applicant requests reissuance of the NPDES permit for the discharge of wastewater from cation exchange resin water softeners serving a community drinking water well. The filters backwash intermittently, and eventually discharge into a stormwater channel that drains to Lake Norman. The filters are designed to remove CaCO3 (hardness) from the well water. Pending a final review by the NPDES Permitting Unit, it is recommended that a Permit. be reissued as requested.

DEM or "the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. 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 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 II Page 2 of 14 6. Concentration_ Measurement I 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. f. The "quarterly average concentration" is•the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit. g. -A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Part II Page 3 of 14 7. Other Measurements a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the.arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when 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 areindividual 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 (D. c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. Part II Page 4 of 14 10. Calendar Day A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day 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.

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. 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 H, 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 periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section. Part II Page 9 of 14 5. s is 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.

C. 27626-053 5 Re: The lrt Well System Iredell County LDESI P.N. 88055 (Return # 2016) Dear Mr. Weaver: hh/� V �b7 The Point and The Harbour are adjoining subdivisions developed by Crescent Resources Inc., and are served by a water system owned and operated by Carolina Water Service. A permit (NPDES NC 0084565) has been previously issued for discharge of softener backwash for the first well system constructed in the Harbour. Since the softeners use a cation exchange resin for hardness removal, there is no contamination in'the backwash and the NPDES permit was issued without a requirement for alternative analysis. In essence, this type of system is a filtering process similar to the same type process as a swimming pool backwash, except only clean well water is filtered, thus there would seem to be no basis for concern as to adverse water quality impacts. We respectfully request a re=consideration in regard to this requirement for alternative analysis as a ire% h� bOb low priority, no contamination discharge. �". We are also enclosing an application and processing fee of $400.00, and three (3) sets of plans for a second discharge point for a water softener discharge for new Well Number 4 for the Harbour. -7' Although we are, filing for a new permit for The Point, it would be preferable and seems logical, if possible, to include this system as a third point of discharge within the overall Harbour/Point Water System, since it will be owned in it's entirety by Carolina Water Service, is contiguous, and since it is possible that additional .dischargepoints may be requested in the future due to the distances separating.the wells. {{�.J�f��Lqq�.e JAN 119 �?v'r�5-u`.=�:'L Three (3) copies of an executed_ Short Form D and check for $400.00 are enclosed for a proposed discharge of backwash water for Theme Point.

The softeners can and do backwash at various times of the day and or night depending on demand. Since the water softeners discharge at various times throughout the day and night and not knowing exactly when that might be, it would be extremely difficult to sample during a discharge event under normal circumstances. However, based on Mr. Bells comments and suggestions, we have developed a Standard Operating Procedure which will require us to manually initiate a softener backwash to ensure that there is flow at the time of sample collection. Therefore, all eDMR's going forward will have a flow recorded on the day sampling occurred. The noted eDMR's in the compliance evaluation inspection will be revised and resubmitted for the following results, conductivity, lead, manganese and salinity. We apologize for this oversight and have taken steps to insure this does not happen again in the future.

Please be advised that effluent sampling should only be performed during discharge events.- In addition, any of these months/DMRs with incorrectly reported flow measurements must be revised and resubmitted to the Division. The effluent results for conductivity (November 2016, May — June 2017) and lead and manganese (potentially entire review period) were not properly converted to the units listed on the DMRs. All applicable DMRs must be revised and resubmitted to the Division. - The units of measurement being. reported for the effluent salinity during the review period included ppt, g/l, and mg/I. Please note that ppt represents parts per trillion and ppth' represents'parts pet thousand in the eDMR system. The ORC and staff must review all DMRs during the review period and ensure all effluent salinity results were reported in the correct units of measurement.

The ORC initiates a backwash cvcle (and discharge) on one of the softeners to collect the permit -required effluent samples. The ORC must ensure that the sofltener chosen is representative of a typical backwash discharge event from a softener that has been on-line and in need of a backwash cvcle. If the effluent characteristics change throughout the backwash cycle (initially turbid and clearino up at the end) then #he' ORC must ensure that representative effluent samples are collected. A sampling protocol'was discussed during the inspecfion that included the collection of multiple samples (equal volumes) representing each discharge phase and combining these samples into one clean container. The combined effluent sample must be thoroughly mixed prior to pouring the contents into the contracted laboratory's sample bottles. Operations & Maintenance Yes No NA NE Is the plant generally clean with acceptable housekeeping?0 ❑ ❑ ❑ Does the facility analyze process control parameters, for ex: MLSS, MCRT, Settleable ❑ ❑ ❑ .Solids, pH, DO, Sludge Judge, and other that are applicable?

VAN DER VAART PO Box 240908 Charlotte, NC 28224-0908 Subject: NPDES Electronic Reporting Requirements and Sixty Day Notice of Minor Modification of the NPDES Permit The Harbour - Well #4 WTP NPDES Permit Number: NCO086606 Dear NPDES Permittee: Secretary S. JAY ZIMMERMAN Director RECEIVED/NCDENR/DWI APR 4 2016 WQROS IIGOORESVILLE REGIONIAL OFFICE The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently published the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Electronic Reporting Rule. The rule requires NPDES regulated facilities to report information electronically, instead of filing written paper reports. The rule does not change what information is required from facilities. It only changes the method by which information is provided (i.e., electronic rather than paper -based). EPA is phasing in the requirements of the rule over a 5-year period. The two phases of the rule, and their key milestones, are: Phase 1—Starting on December 21, 2016, regulated entities that are required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) will begin submitting these reports electronically, instead of on paper. If you are currently reporting your DMR data electronically using eDMR, then you simply need to continue reporting in the same way as you are now. The key change is that, starting on December 21, 2016, electronic reporting of DMRs will be required, instead of voluntary. Phase 2—Starting on December 21, 2020, regulated entities that are required to submit certain other NPDES reports will begin submitting these reports electronically, instead of on paper. Reports covered in the second phase include Notices of Intent to discharge in compliance with an NPDES general permit, Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports, and a number of other NPDES program reports. For more information on EPA's NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule, visit http:Hwww2.epa.goy/compliance/final-national-pollutant-discharge-elimination-system-npdes electronic -reporting -rule. For more information on electronic reporting to NC DWR, visit http://deg.nc.goy/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr/npdes-electronic-reporting or contact Vanessa Manuel at 919-807-6392 or via email at Vanessa.Manuel@ncdenr.gov. State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Water Resources 1611 Mail service Center I Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1611 919 707 9000 Sixty Days' Notice of Minor Modification of the Subject NPDES Permit The NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule requires authorized NPDES programs to incorporate electronic reporting requirements into NPDES permits beginning December21, 2015. Under the new rule, the electronic reporting process supersedes the paper reporting process outlined in your existing permit. To bring your permit up-to-date with the new reporting requirements, this letter serves to notify you that in sixty days your NPDES permit.will be modified to incorporate the new electronic reporting requirements. The modification will require electronic reporting in place of paper based reporting. Electronic reporting will be required beginning as indicated above for Phases 1 and 2 reporting. Please attach the enclosed NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Partill —Addendum to your permit. This permit modification becomes .effective on July 1, 2016. All other terms and conditions in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect.

Signed this day XXXX XX, 201.2, Charles Wakild P.E., Director Division of Water Quality By Authority of the Environmental Management Commission ARR DRAFT 04-03-2012 Site observations for The Point Well #1 was as follows: One trane of softners was observed receiving flow from five wells influent flowing through the WTP. CWS indicated that the units were installed around 1998-2000 and regular maintenance is performed on the units. The units work as designed to remove hardness, but the resin has never been cleaned or replaced to date. There were two settling tanks in series (approximately 1,000 gallons each). Backwash volume at peak load was reportedly 1 backwash daily of approximately 300-400 gallons of discharge per backwash. Based on this information, it would appear that the settling tank. may have some settling capacity, but that was unclear. The IE units are operated based solely on the volume of water flow from the well system. Results and Recommendations: CWS agreed to sample in April 2012, the Point Well #1 influent and effluent for the constituents' in the draft permit and offered to contact the IE WTP Softner Technical Service Representative for the purpose of system optimization. Historical Sampling and results to consider for sample planning and treatment optimization: A review of 2010 and 2011 Wells #1, #2, and #4 groundwater data from Public Water Section web site did not include results for Chloride, TDS, Copper, or Zinc. The data also did not include Nitrate, the receiving water body is not nutrient sensitive, however, the last permit cycle Total Nitrogen data was collected and the Total Nitrogen results from the WTP discharge were elevated. Since there is a groundwater standard for Nitrate, I would recommend sampling the wells for Nitrate. Well groundwater results were reported for Hardness 19 mg/L and 123 mg/L, respectively, and for Manganese reported as less than .01 mg/L. The average Manganese results reported from Wells #1, #2, and #4 WTP discharge were significantly higher, they were .675 mg/L and .265 mg/L, respectively. Well groundwater results for Iron were also reported as less than 0.01 mg/L for wells #1, #2, and #4. However, WTP discharge average results reported for Iron were 0.18 mg/L and 0.25 mg/L, respectively, with maximums reported at 1.3 mg/L and 1.2 mg/L, respectively. Also, Sodium results were included from Wells #1, #2, and #4 in the 2010 and 2011 groundwater data published by the Public Water Section. The groundwater sodium results were 8953 ug/Land 13, 900 ug/L, respectively. This is important to note since the IE WTP unit is converting Ca and Mg to Sodium salts. It is also important to note that higher TDS usually in the form of CaCO3, lowers the exchange capacity, so hardness and TDS can be monitored for process control and WTP optimization. . _.... - _ - -- ._._...._.._ - - - - 2Page ARR DRAFT 04-03-2012 Carolina Water Service (CWS) - Ion Exchange Water Treatment Plants (IE WTP's) March 30, 2012 Meeting @ Mooresville Regional Office Subject: Permit Renewals for Harbour Well #4, Harbour Wells #1 and #2, The Point Well #11 Site observations for Harbour Well #4 WTP was as follows: Two tranes of softners were observed with each trane receiving flow from six wells for a total of twelve influent wells flowing through the WTP. CWS indicated that the units were installed around 2001 and regular maintenance is performed on the units. The units work as designed to remove hardness, but the resin has never been cleaned or replaced to date. There were two settling tanks in series (approximately 1,000 gallons each). Backwash volume at peak load was reportedly 3-4 backwashes per day of approximately 700-960 gallons of discharge per backwash. Based on this information, it would appear that the settling tanks do not have the optimum capacity for settling. The IE units are operated based solely on the volume of water flow from the well system. Results and Recommendations: CWS agreed to sample in April 2012, the Harbour Well #4 WTP influent and effluent for the constituents' in the draft permit and offered to contact the IE WTP Softner Technical Service Representative for the purpose of system optimization. We discussed 1) sampling the effluent at the settling basin and 2) sampling the effluent at the end of the discharge pipe. This will enable CWS to determine if the current sampling location provides a representative sample and to see if results differ between the two sampling locations. Site observations for Harbour Well #1 and #2 WTP were as follows: One trane of softners was observed receiving flow from two wells influent flowing through the WTP. CWS indicated that the units were installed around 1995, prior to CWS, and regular maintenance is performed on the units. The units work as designed to remove hardness, but the resin has never been cleaned or replaced to date. There was one settling tank that appeared to hold (approximately 2,000 gallons). Backwash volume at peak load was reportedly 1 backwash every other day of approximately 900-1000 gallons of discharge per backwash. Based on this information, it would appear that the settling tank may have some settling capacity, but that was unclear. The IE units are operated based solely on the volume of water flow from the well system. Results and Recommendations: CWS agreed to sample in April 2012, the Harbour Well #1 and #2 WTP influent and effluent for the constituents' in the draft permit and offered to contact the IE WTP Softner Technical Service Representative for the purpose of system optimization. 1Page - — PIMA NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Resources Pat McCrory Thomas A. Reeder John E. Skvarla, III Governor Director Secretary MEMORANDUM Date:. April 26, 2013 To: Julie Grzyb, Environmental Engineer Division of Water Quality (DWQ) = Surf e Water Pro ction From: Britt L. Setzer, Regional Engineer . Division of Water Resources — Pu ater ply W ction Mooresville Regional Office Subject: Review of Draft NPDES Permits Permit NCO084565 — The Harbour — Wells #1 and #2 Water Treatment Plant Permit NCO086592 — The Point Well #1 Water Treatment Plant �1 Permit NCO086606 — The Harbour Well #4 Water Treatment Plant I have completed the review of the draft permits listed above. My comments and.concerns are listed below. All of the water treatment plants identified in the draft permits have existed since the mid to late 1990s without, to my knowledge, any obvious documented adverse impacts to the surface waters associated with the discharges. The MRO DWQ staff is not aware of any complaints or concerns associated with the current discharges. Because these discharges are into unnamed tributaries to the Catawba River Basin, it appears that most of the discharges never reach the surface waters (0 flow streams). The discharges are intermittent in nature and only occur during a back wash cycle. My understanding is that the largest treatment plant discharges approximately 1,000 gallons no more often than two times per week during normal operations. Of course, the discharge amounts increase during peak demands in the summer months. This is by no means a continual discharge which is typical with most NPDES permits. Furthermore, based on the compliance water quality monitoring required under Section .1500 of the Rules Governing Public Water Systems (RGPWS), it doesn't appear the infiltration of the discharges into the soil has adversely impacted any of the wells at this system. These discharges were permitted by the DWQ at the time of construction in the mid and late 1990s. I am concerned the compliance schedule and alternatives evaluation presented in the draft permit may result in the discontinuation of the water softening treatment units. There are no established drinking water standards for hardness in North Carolina that would preverit Carolina Water Services (CWS) from ceasing operations of these treatment units. Public Water Supply Section — Jessica C. Godreau, Chief Mooresville Regional Office 610 East Center Avenue, Suite 301, Mooresville, North Carolina 28115 Phone: 704-663-16991 FAX: 704-663-3772 Internet vnvw.ncwater,orglpws An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer Julie Grzyb April 26, 2013 Page 2 of 3 These water treatment facilities were approved by the PWS Section as listed below. These softening units were approved primarily to deal with the hard water. 1. 1995 —Harbour Wells 1+2 — DEH Approval Serial Number— 95-08539 2. 1998 —The Pointe Wells 6-10 — DEH Approval Serial Number— 98-01048 3. 1999 —The Harbour Well #4 — DEH Approval Serial Number — 98-01757. This treatment plant removes hardness associated with wells 4, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24. Without these water softening systems, the consumer acceptability of the water would be extremely low and. result in significant customer complaints. This system can't function without these wells and meet pressure and system demands. The draft permit gives CWS three years to evaluate alternatives and make a proposal as to how to resolve these water quality violations. The alternatives presented included the items listed below. 1. Disposal of wastewaters by such alternatives as connecting to a local WWTP, pump and hauling wastewaters away, obtaining a non -discharge permit for land application or. reuse. 2. Obtaining drinking water from another source. 3. Installing alternative water treatment methods. 4. 'Relocating the facility's discharge directly to the lake using a diffuser, assessing the model dilution, and determining if the limits can be met at the predicted effluent dilution concentrations. 5. Installing a wastewater treatment to comply with the limits. 6. The permittee can assess any alterative which enables the facility to comply with the NC Water Quality Standards. At five years, CWS is required to comply with water quality standards specified in the draft permit as listed below. 1. TDS - 500 mg/I 2. Total Chloride - 250 mg/I 3. Total Manganese — 200 ug/I 4. Total Lead — 25 ug/I As was reported in your e-mail message, sampling data collected by CWS during the past four years indicates maximum levels for the three treatment plants as listed below which is above the discharge limits. 1. The Point — 26,000 ug/I — TDS, 27,840 mg/I — Total Chloride, 6700 ug/I — Total Manganese, 28 ug/I — Total Lead. 2. Harbour Well #4 — 48,000 mg/I — TDS, 19,000 mg/I — Total Chloride, 6500 ug/I — Total Manganese, 38 ug/I — Total Lead. 3. Harbour Wells #1 and #2 — 23,000 mg/I — TDS, 14,000 mg/I — Total Chloride, 6500 ug/I — Total Manganese, 79 ug/I —Total -Lead. On April 22, 2013, CWS met with the DWQ staff and me to discuss the draft NPDES permit and proposed alternatives identified in the draft permit. It appears the only viable alternative to resolve the water quality violations is to obtain supplemental water supply from the Town of Mooresville (TOM). According to CWS, a contractual agreement has been executed between the TOM and CWS to allow for a purchase of approximately 646,000 gallons per day of treated water from the TOM. The purchase of water may allow the wells that require softening to be taken off line thus eliminating all three discharges. The interconnection with the TOM will occur later this summer. CWS indicated they may be able to negotiate additional water purchase from the TOM in the future. Julie Grzyb April 26, 2013 Page 3 of 3 Based on this information, I understand that CWS might be able to comply with the draft permit. The three year time limit to fully evaluate the TOM interconnect and possibly eliminate the discharges seems reasonable. Without the TOM interconnect, there doesn't appear to be any other viable alternatives. If you have any questions, please call me at (704)663-1699.

We are pleased that you found this facility well maintained and we respond to the noted issues as follows: Operation and Maintenance It was noted on the December 14, 2006 Inspection as a "recommendation" to record the results at this facility. Ms. Hood indicated on the current inspection that this was still an issue and has not been corrected. Process control tests. are being performed and the results are documented on the sample chain of custodies as well as the monthly DMR. De - chlorination The suction line -for -the -Sodium -Bisulfate was_removed-by-our_ contractor_the_day before while performing necessary maintenance on the softener system. The. backwash cycle was not activated during these repairs and mistakenly left out of the Sodium Bisulfite drum. This was immediately corrected during the inspection. Also, there was no discharge at the time of inspection. Effluent Flow Measurement The permit requires an instantaneous flow measurement. Instantaneous flow is determined by the designed specifications of each softener vessel during the backwash cycle. Once in the backwash cycle the softener is timed to discharge 60 gallons per minute for backwash and fast rinse and 3.5 gallons per minute in the brine draw cycle. The flow meters were installed as an added benefit and also to help with our monthly water accountability. The flow meter was calibrated 8/26/09 and was put on an annual schedule. Effluent Sampling We have evaluated our sampling procedures and made changes to allow for the 10 day separation between sampling; however, all samples collected in the specified months were within the permit limits.

PERMIT: The permit adequately describes the facility. RECORDS AND REPORTS: Records and reports consisting of Operator -in -Responsible Charge (ORC)/maintenance log, sampling data, and calibration data were reviewed at the time of the inspection. The records were organized and well maintained. FACILITY SITE REVIEW/OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE: The backwash wastewater flows through two settling tanks (operated in series) prior to discharge. The facility appeared to be operating properly and the surrounding grounds were well maintained. No solids have been removed from the settling tanks. The ORC and staff were very knowledgeable of all treatment units and processes at the facility. LABORATORY: Prism Laboratories, Inc.

All on -site laboratory analyses are performed under laboratory certification #5228. The laboratory instrumentation utilized for field analyses appeared to be properly calibrated and maintained. EFFLUENT/RECEI"NG WATERS: The effluent appeared clear with no suspended solids or foam. The receiving stream/drainage ditch did not appear to be negatively impacted. The outfall location was well maintained and accessible. SELF -MONITORING PROGRAM: Self -monitoring reports were reviewed for the period October 2002 through September 2003. The permit requires quarterly monitoring. No limit violations were reported. No flow was reported for December 2002; however, the ORC indicated that the value was an inadvertent transcription error. An amended DMR will be resubmitted; therefore, all monitoring frequencies and sampling locations were correct. The ORC and staff must insure that TRC values are not reported (on the DMRs) below the lowest value verified on the annual calibration curve. The ORC and staff must insure that all permit required documentation (i.e. sample location, date, time, analyst, final value, etc.) for all on -site field analyses is documented. In addition, the permittee and ORC/staff must insure that all units, maximum/minimums, and appropriate "<" or ">" values are documented and averaged on the DMRs prior to submittal. FLOW MEASUREMENT: Flow is measured by multiplying the number of timed backwashes by the specified flow rate. C1F W'4T�9 Micha Easley I\OC� )).. G Governor William G.

DEM or "the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. 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 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 1 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 II Page 2 of 14. 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration;' other than for fecal coliform bacteria, :is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during..a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample -or in the case of grab samples is the, arithmetic mean (weighted 'by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day., The, average monthly count for .fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a' :calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly -Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. b. The "average weekly- concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations'of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a .calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value). of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average. weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of,the- counts for samples collected -during a calendar, week. This. limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part Pof 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 1. f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of. Part I of the permit. g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the -following distinct periods:, January through March, April -through June, July through September, and Octoberthrough December. . Part II Page 3 of 14 7. Other Measurements a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An "instantaneous flow measurement is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when 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). c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its, respective.flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. Part II Page 4 of 14 10. Calendar Day A calendar, day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. 11. Hazardous Substance A hazardous substance means any substancedesignated 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.

Prohibition of Bypass (1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority.may take enforcement action against a permittee, forbypass, unless: (A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent 'loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal -periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affect's,, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it, will meet the three conditions listed above"in Paragraph d. (1) of this section. Part II Page 9 of 14 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 ll, 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. 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 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. Part H Page 10 of 14 SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS 1. Representative Sampling Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be- characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples collected at a frequency less than daily shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge over the entire period which the sample represents. All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit and, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed without notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority. 2. Reporting Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and reported on a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form (DEM No. MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director, DEM, postmarked no later than the 30th day following the completed reporting period. The first DMR is due on the last day of the month following the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the commencement of discharge. Duplicate signed copies of these, and all other reports required herein, shall be submitted to the following address: Division of Water Quality Water.

NPDES has determined that any potential combining of the two WTP backwash discharges would not likely result in any added benefit to receiving water quality. NPDES has also determined that nondischarge options are limited for WTP backwash water, particulary effluents from softener systems due to their high sodium content. Consequently, EAA requirements are becoming more focused for proposed WTP backwash discharges. Finally, NPDES has determined that the request to combine all WTP backwash discharge systems under a single NPDES permit will not be allowed. While NPDES does allow multiple outfalls for a single facility to be covered under one permit, we feel the WTP backwash discharges represent individual treatmentfacilities at -differing locations.
