PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITI NS
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
2. DEM or "jhg Division"
Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources.
.0
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Cormission.
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 coliforrn 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 1 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 surn 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 1 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.
g.
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.
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.

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. calculati9nof 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 sununation 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.

Part II
Page 8 of 14
3. Need to Ha t 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
(I) Anticipated bypass. If the perrnittee 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 II, 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 norrnal 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 deterrnines 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 perrnit 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 shaIl 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 perrnittee 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 11, 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 Substarim
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

The faciiity vas IasiIast irispected by Linda Love of this office on April 7, 2000.
PERMIT:
The existing 0.0 0 MGD wastewater treatment facility consists of a 10,000 gallon septic
tank, surface sandfilter, tablet chlorinator, and chlorine contact chamber. The permit adequately
describes the WWTP.
The permit 'for this facility became effective on I 1n/00 and expires on 3/31/05.. The review
period of the self -monitoring reports includes the requirements of the previously issued permit.
RECORDS AND REPORTS:
The Operator -in -Responsible Charge (ORC)/maintenance log, chain of custody forms,
laboratory analyses, discharge monitoring reports (DMRs), and calibration data were reviewed at the
time of the inspection.
The midrange standard for TRC calibration/verification (for the pocket colorimeter) was not
documented as required by the NPDES Permit and to verify compliance with 15A North Carolina
Administrative Code (NCAC) .0805 (a)(7)(I). The remaining records were well organized and
accessible.
FACILITY SITE REVIEW/OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE:
A large hole in the wall adjacent to the distribution box was observed, The distributed water
appeared to migrate from the sand and into the wall' s hole. The water could enter the drainage
system underneath the sand without appropriate treatment. The facility reported BOD and ammonia
violations during the review period (See Self -Monitoring Section), Please be advised that the permit
requires that the facility be properly operated and maintained at all times. The remaining
components of the treatment facility appeared to be well maintained and operating properly. The
lateral distribution lines were level and the sand had been raked, No vegetation was present. Note:
The facility is in the process of being connected to the Town of Taylorsville's collection system...
The facility is staffed with one Grade IV ORC. A certified back-up operator had been
designated when the ORC is unable to visit the facility. The ORC was very knowledgeable of
treatment units and processes utilized at this facility.
LABORATORY:
Water Tech Labs, Inc. (Certificate No. 50) in Granite Falls, N.C. has been contracted to
provide analytical support. The lab was not evaluated during this inspection. This office does not
have on file a copy of the laboratory certification exemption for pH and TRC that was granted by the
Division's Laboratory Certification Unit (DLCU). Previous inspection reports have indicated that
the DLCU had granted an exemption for this facility to perform pH and TRC analyses on -site.
Please submit to this office a copy of the laboratory exemption letter.
The pH meter and thermometer appeared to be properly calibrated.

Ellendale Elementary School WWTP

EFFLUENT/RECEIVING WATERS:
The effluent discharge was clear with no suspended solids or foam. The facility discharges
into Beaver Branch, which is a Class C water in the Catawba River Basin. The receiving stream did
not appear to be negatively impacted. The discharge outfall was well maintained and accessible at
the time of the inspection.
SELF -MONITORING PROGRAM:
Self -monitoring reports were reviewed for the period July 2000 through June 2001, inclusive,
Monthly average BOD violation was reported for October* 2000. Monthly average ammonia
violation was reported for May* 2001. Note: * denote issuance of NOV or civil penalty assessment.
All monitoring frequencies were correct.
The permittee's address and phone number and the expiration date were not documented (for
the entire review period) on the compliance statusipermittee's signature page. The permittee must
insure that all appropriate information is documented on the DMR before submittal to the Division.
The ORC indicated that the effluent samples for pH and TRC were collected and transported
to the on -site lab for analyses. However, the collection and analyses times for pH and TRC were not
documented to verify compliance with the 15 minute holding time requirements (Reference: 40 CFR
136.3, Table II). The remaining parameters appeared to have met the required holding times. All
samples appeared to be properly preserved.
FLOW MEASUREMENT:
Instantaneous flow is measured by the bucket and stop watch method.
SLUDGE DISPOSAL:
Septage is removed by Taylorsville Precast Molds, Inc. and disposed at an approved land
application site in Alexander County.
SEWER OVERFLOW:
Please be advised that pursuant to Part II, Section E of your NPDES permit, and North
Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) 15A 2B .0506 (a)(2), any failure of a collection system,
pumping station or treatment facility resulting in a bypass without treatment of all or any portion of
the wastewater shall be reported to the central office or the appropriate regional office (Mooresville
Regional Office 704-663-1699) as soon as possible but no later than 24 hours from the time the
permittee became aware of the bypass. Overflows and spills occurring outside normal business hours
may also be reported to the Division's Emergency Response personnel at 800-662-7956, 800-858-
0368, or 919-733-3300. A written report shall also be provided within five (5) days of the time of
the incident. The report shall contain a description of the bypass, and its cause; the period of the
bypass, including exact dates and times, and if the bypass has not been corrected, the anticipated time
it is expected to continue; and steps taken (or planned) to reduce, eliminate, and prevent recurrence
of the similar events. Any spill that reaches surface waters (i.e. any spill that reaches any water
already present in a conveyance, stream, ditch, etc,..) or any spill greater than 1,000 gallons on the
ground that does not reach surface waters must be reported.

Eliminate Elementary School WWTP
Page Four
SEWER OVERFLOW cont'd:
An adequate spill response for those spills reaching surface waters should include an
evaluation downstream of the point at which the spill entered surface waters to determine if a fish
kill occurred. The evaluation should also include the collection of upstream dissolved oxygen and
pH measurements for background information and dissolved oxygen and pH measurements at
multiple points downstream of the entry point to document any negative impact. Failure to report
the bypass of collection system, pumping station or treatment facility subjects violators to penalties
of up to $25,000.00 per day per violation.

Subject: NC3041122 - permit renewal
Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 11 14:28 -0500
From: Charles Weaver <[e-mail]>
To: [e-mail]
Mr, Robertson, Division of Water Quality received the permit renewal
application for Ellendale Elementary School on December 9, 1999. Thanks
for submitting this package in a timely fashion.
I"m sorry to inform you that the NPDES Unit currently has several vacant
positions, and has not been fully staffed for over a year. This staff
shortage is delaying all of our permit renewals. Our remaining staff
are currently reviewing Authorizations to Construct, speculative limit
requests, major permit modifications and 201 plans ahead of permit
renewals. This is necessary due to a variety of factors, including
mandatory deadlines in the statutes which govern our program.
If this staff shortage delays reissuance of NC0041122, the existing
requirements in that permit will remain in effect until the permit is
renewed (or other action is taken by the Division). We appreciate your
patience and understanding as we operate with a depleted staff.
If you have any questions about your permit (or the permit renewal
process in general), simply reply to this e-mail.
Sincerely,
Charles H. Weaver, Jr.

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

6. Concentration Meastp rnent
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 L
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

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).

Part II
Page 4 of 14
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.
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
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307
of
e Clean Water Act.

(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,
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.

Dear Dr. Doby:
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in
the amount of $1068.56 ($1000.00 civil penalty + $68.56 enforcement costs) against
Alexander County Schools.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: A review has been
conducted of the discharge monitoring report (DMR) submitted by Alexander County
Schools for the month of August 1999. This review has shown the subject facility to
be in violation of the discharge limitation requirements found in. NPDES Permit No.
NC0041.122 for the monthly average limit for Ammonia as Nitrogen (NH3 as N). The
violations which occurred are summarized in Attachment A to this letter.
Based upon the above facts. I conclude as a matter of law that Alexander
County Schools violated the terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES Permit No.
NC0041122 and North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner
and extent shown in Attachment A. Pursuant to G.S. 143--215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty
of not more than ten thousand dollars ($10.000.00) per violation, per day may be
assessed against a person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a
permit required by N.C.G.S. 143-215.1(a.).

Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will
not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).

Point Source Compliance/Enforcement Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed
justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure for
contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment letter.
Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing,
such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative
hearing and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in dispute. You
must execute and return to this office the attached waiver and stipulation form and
a detailed statement which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b)
were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting
from the violations;
(c) the violations were inadvertent or a result of an cident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining
necessary remedial actions.

This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and assessment of civil penalty in
the amount of $1,075.76 ($1,000.00 civil penalty + $75.76 enforcement costs) against
the Alexander County Board of Education (Permittee), hereafter referred to as
Alexander County Schools.
This assessment is based upon the following facts: a review has been
conducted of the discharge monitoring report (DMR) submitted by Alexander County
Schools for the month of August 1998. This review has shown the subject facility to
be in violation of the discharge limitations found in NPDES Permit No. NC0041122.
The violations which occurred in August 1998 are summarized in Attachment A to
this letter.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Alexander
County Schools violated the tenns, conditions or requirements of NPDES Permit No.
NC0041122 and North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner
and extent shown in Attachment A. Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty
of not more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per violation, per day, if the
violations are of a continuing nature, may be assessed against a person who violates
the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215,1(a).

Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken

health, or to private property resulting from the violation;
The duration and gravity of the violation;
The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
The cost of rectifying the damage;
The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs
over which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority;
and
The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment

not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s).

Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-053
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed
justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure for
contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment
letter. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative
hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an
administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in
dispute. You must execute and return to this office the attached waiver and
stipulation form and a detailed statement which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.1(b)
were wrongfully applied to the detrirnent of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting
from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violation;

necessary remedial actions,
