The facility shall report all effluent TRC values reported by a NC certified laboratory including field certified. However, effluent values below 50 ug/L will be treated as zero for compliance purposes. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts. A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to • Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 50.0 %. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July, and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. • The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the `North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWR Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWR / Water Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later. than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. 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 Branch at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by Page 4 of 8 Permit NC0020338 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 If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the data submitted on the DMR & all AT Forms submitted. 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.

MERCURY MINIMIZATION PLAN (MMP) The permittee shall develop and implement a mercury minimization plan during this permit term. The MMP shall be developed within 180 days of the NPDES Permit Effective Date, and shall be available for inspection on -site. A sample MMP was developed through a stakeholder review process and has been placed on the Division website for guidance (http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/swp/ps/npdes, under Model Mercury Minimization Plan). The MMP should place emphasis on identification of mercury contributors and goals for reduction. Results shall be summarized and submitted with the next permit renewal. A. (5.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these regulations will be adopted and is beginning implementation in late 2013.

These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. These samples shall be representative of the wastewater discharged during the sample period. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), 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 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 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 (3) Version 11/09/2011 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. 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, Depailinent of Environment and Natural Resources. Effluent Wastewater discharged following all treatment processes from a water pollution control facility or other point source whether treated or untreated.

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). Version 11/09/2011 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 3of18 Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the CWA. Instantaneous flow measurement The flow measured during the minimum time required for the flow measuring device or method to produce a result in that instance. To the extent practical, instantaneous flow measurements coincide with the collection of any grab samples required for the same sampling period so that together the samples and flow are representative of the discharge during that sampling period. Monthly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Average (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean 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 CWA. Upset 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 or other bacterial parameters or indicators, the geometric mean of such discharges. Section B. General Conditions 1.

[40 CFR 403.3 (i) and (j) and 15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(11)] Interference Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [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 02H .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 11/09/2011 NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Page 15 of 18 Section C. Municipal Control of Pollutants from Industrial Users. 1.

It was originally permitted in 1980 at a flow of 1.0 MGD discharging into Haw Branch. The outfall was relocated to North Deep Creek in 1992. A permit application for expansion to 2.5 MGD was processed in 1997. A wasteload allocation completed by Andy McDaniel in January of 1997 for expansion to 2.5 MGD recommended effluent limitations more stringent than secondary in order to protect the State's 5.0 mg/L dissolved oxygen (DO) standard. An authorization to construct (020338ACD) for that expansion was issued on June 19, 1997. The engineer's certification for that project was subsequently received July 16, 1998. The facility has 3 significant industrial users and a full-scale pretreatment program. The permit will continue to require the City to implement its pretreatment program. REASONABLE POTENTIAL ANALISYS Reasonable potential analyses were conducted for arsenic, cadmium, total phenolic compounds, cyanide, chromium, fluoride, lead, silver, copper, zinc, mercury, and molybdenum (see attached). The RPA indicates that limit for cyanide should remain in the permit. The other parameters did not show a raaonable potential to violate water quality standards/EPA criteria.

COMPLIANCE SUMMARY: The facility did not receive any notices of violation during the previous permit term. MERCURY EVALUATION The mercury evaluation was conducted in •accordance with the Permitting Guidelines for Statewide Mercury TMDL. Year 2010 2011 2012 Annual average concentration (ng/L) 2.9 3.7 3.6 Maximum sampling result (ng/L) 7.9 9.2 10.1 WQBEL allowable concentration for this facility is 24.1 ng/L. All Annual average mercury concentrations are below allowable. All annual maximum sampling results are below TBEL of 47 ng/L. Based on the Permitting Guidelines for Statewide Mercury TMDL, the Mercury Minimization Plan special condition will be added to the permit. The mercury monitoring will be removed from the permit. The facility will continue mercury monitoring through PPA. INSTREAM MONPI'ORING: Instream monitoring is required for temperature, dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, and conductivity. Analysis of the collected data showed that the facility does not cause violation of the water quality standards in the receiving stream. PERMIT LIMITS • BOD limits in the permit are based on the water quality model. • TSS limits in the permit are based on the requirements of the 40 CFR 133.102. • Ammonia limits in the permit are based on the Ammonia Toxicity Policy and the water quality model. The Division uses ammonia criteria that were developed by EPA: 1 mg/L - summer; 1.8 mg/L — winter. • DO limit in the permit is based on the water quality model. • TRC limit in the permit is based on the North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • Fecal Coliforms limits in the permit are based on the North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • pH limits limit in the permit are based on the North Carolina water quality standards [15A NCAC 2B .0200]. • Cyanide limits in the permit are based on the results of the reasonable potential analysis. PROPOSED CHANGES • Based on the Permitting Guidelines for Statewide Mercury TMDL, the Mercury Minimization Plan special condition will be added to the permit (Please see A. (4.)). The mercury monitoring will be removed from the permit. The facility will continue mercury monitoring through PPA. • Monitoring for Cu and Zn has been reduced to quarterly based on the statistical analysis of the effluent data. • Monitoring for Cyanide has been reduced to monthly based on the statistical analysis of the effluent data. Yadkinville Fact Sheet NPDES Renewal Page 2 • Daily maximum limit for cyanide has been increased to 40.5 µg/L based on the procedures for statistical analysis established by the Division. • Weekly average limit for cyanide has been changed to the monthly average limit in response to the EPA requirements. • Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such ubmittals, then permittees must submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental ]rotection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these regulations will be adopted nd is beginning implementation. The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to the permit.
