C. MONITORING AND REPORTING
1. Representative Sampling
Samples collected and measurements taken as required herein

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 DMP, 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

h. The "daily average" discharge means the total discharge
by weight during a calendar month. divided by the number of
.days in. the month that the production or commercial facility
was operating. Where less than daily sampling is required
this permit, the daily average discharge shall be determined
by the summation of all the measured daily discharges by
weight divided by the number of days sampled during the
calendar month when the measurements were made.
e The "daily maximum" discharge means the total discharge
t:y weight during any calendar day.

d. DEM or Division: means the Division of Environmental
Management, Department of Natural Resources and Community
Development.
e. EMC: used herein means the North Carolina Environmental
Management Commission.
f. Flow, M3/day (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this
permit is the 24 hour average flow, averaged monthly. It is
determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows
recorded during the calendar month.
g. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of
values is the summation of the individual values divided by
the number of individual values.
h. 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).
i. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples
collected at equal intervals and combined proportional to
flow, a sample continuously collected proportionally to
flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time intervals. If a
composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent
grab samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals
between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than
hourly except where the detention time of the wastewater in
the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which case, the
interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number
of hours than the detention time in number of days;
provided, however, in no case may the time between effluent
grab samples be greater than six hours nor the number of
grab samples less than four during any discharge period of
24 hours or less.
j. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples
collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes;
the grab sample can be taken manually.

4. Test Procedures
Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform
to the EMC regulations published pursuant to N.C.G.S.
143-215.63 et seq, the Water and Air Quality Reporting Act,

requirements of this permit, the permittee shall record the
following information:
a. The exact place, date, and time of sampling;
b. The dates the analyses were performed; and
c. The person(s) who performed the analyses.
6. Additional Monitoring by Perittee
If the permittee monitors any pollutant at the location(s)
designated herein more frequently than required by this
permit, using approved analytical methods as specified
above, the results of such monitoring shall be included in
the calculation and reporting of the values is required in
the DMR. Such increased frequency shall also be indicated.
The DEM may require more frequent monitoring or the
monitoring of other pollutants not required in this permit
by written notification.
7. Records Retention
Ali records and information resulting from the monitoring
activities required by this Permit including all records of
analyses performed and calibration and maintenance of
instrumentation and recordings from continuous monitoring
instrumentation shall be retained for a minimum of three (3)
years. This period of retention shall be extended during the
course of any unresolved litigation or if requested by the
