Subject: Draft NPDES Permit NC0063860
Harbor Estates WWTP
Mecklenburg County
Grade II Biological WPCS
Dear Mr.Becker:
The Division has reviewed your request to renew the subject permit.Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft
permit for your facility.This renewal included the re-evaluation of metal limits based on a CORMIX model
submitted by Aqua North Carolina Inc.in February 2019.
Please review this draft carefully to ensure your thorough understanding of the information,conditions,and
requirements it contains.
The draft permit includes the following significant changes from the existing permit:
> Limits for Total Copper,Total Fluoride,Total Chloride,and Total Zinc have been removed from Section
A.(1.)and A.(2.)as these parameters did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable
water quality standards/criteria using the new dilution credit.Quarterly monitoring for these parameters is
still required,as requested by the Mooresville Regional Office.
> Monthly effluent monitoring has been added for Salinity,Conductivity,and Total Dissolved Solids in
Section A.(1.)and A.(2.).Monitoring for these parameters is required for all facilities discharging
treated backwash from ion-exchange technology.
➢ Sample type has been corrected to Composite for the radiological parameters of concern in Section A.(1.)
and A.(2.),as per current permitting strategy.
> The Schedule of Compliance permit condition has been removed as there are no longer limits for the two
parameters,Total Copper and Total Chloride.
> The effluent concentration for Whole Effluent Toxicity testing has been updated to 7.9%(previously
90%)to reflect the new dilution credit being applied.
➢ The language in Section A.(6.)has been updated to include methods for electronic reporting of toxicity
results.
> Section A. (7.) has been updated regarding electronic submission of effluent data. Federal regulations
require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports(DMRs).
Please note that Catawba River is listed as an impaired waterbody on the North Carolina 303(d)Impaired Waters
List.Addressing impaired waters is a high priority with the Division,and instream data will continue to be
evaluated. If there is noncompliance with permitted effluent limits and stream impairment can be attributed to
your facility,then mitigative measures may be required.
The NPDES standard conditions(Parts II,III,and IV)that are a part of the permit are not included in this draft
document(cover,map,and Part I).The conditions are the same as in your current permit except that agency and

indicate potential impacts, or should further information on radiological components become available.
A. (6.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL MONITORING ONLY (QUARTERLY)
[15A NCAC 02B .0500 et seq.]
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 7_9%. The testing
shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 7-day pass/fail test. The tests will be performed during
the months of January,April,July and October.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 fmal
effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered electronically using
the Division's eDMR system for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code
TGP3B.Additionally, DWR Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch

Or,results can be sent to the email,ATForms.ATB(a,ncdenr.gov.
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water Sciences Section no later than 30
days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed in association with the toxicity tests,as well as all dose/response data.Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should 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 Water Sciences Section at the address cited above.
Page 7 of 10
NPDES Permit NC0063860
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 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.
A. (7.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports(DMRs)and
program reports.The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted and became effective on
December 21, 2015.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this
permit(Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
• Section B.(11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D.(2.) Reporting
• Section D.(6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting Requirements!Supersedes Section D.(2.)and Section E.(5.)(a)1
The permittee shall report discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's
Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report(eDMR)internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter
monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. The eDMR system may be
accessed at: https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr.
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the
facility being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have
broadband access,then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements
may be granted and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms(MR 1, 1.1,
2, 3)or alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to
the following address:

2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1)(9),the permittee must identify the initial recipient at the time
of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the EPA's website resources to identify
the initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES-regulated facilities means the
entity(EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES program)that is the
designated entity for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic reporting tool for
each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions on how to access and use the
appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as well. Information on EPA's NPDES
Electronic Reporting Rule is found at:
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/10/22/2015-24954/national-pollutant-discharge-
