CANNINO COVER SHEET NPDES Permit: NC0005185 Document Type: Permit Issuance , Wasteload Allocation Authorization to Construct (AtC) Permit Modification Speculative Limits Staff Report Instream Assessment (67B) Environmental Assessment (EA) Permit History Document Date: November 15, 1993 This document is printed on reuse paper - ignore any content on the reYerse side DIVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Water Quality Section November 15, 1993 Memorandum To: Susan Robson From: Carla Sanderson" Through: Ruth Swanek Subject: Amoco Oil Company NPDES Permit No. NC0005185 Mecklenburg County Comments on Draft This memorandum is in response to comments sent to the Instream Assessment Unit (October 18, 1993) concerning the Draft Permit for Amoco Oil. After reviewing Amoco's comments I will assume responsibility for answering comment number 2 concerning the phenol limit imposed on outfalls 002, 003, and 006. Amoco requests to have the limitation on phenol changed from concentration to mass based limit. This request is not an option for the facility since the discharge is to WS-IV waters. Per 15A NCAC 2B.0211 (f) (3) (D), the discharge of phenolic compounds cannot be greater than 1.0 ug/1 to protect water supplies. If the limit is given as a mass (lbs/da), then at certain discharge flows, the concentration of 1.0 ug/1 could be violated. Therefore, the limits for phenols at the above mentioned outfalls should remain 1.0 ug/1 Let me know if you need any further information. Amoco Oil Company 375 Northridge Road Suite 350 Atlanta, Georgia 30350-3296 404-512-6876 Facsimile: 404-512-6866 September , 1993 North Caro ina Dept. of Environment, Health and Natur 1 Resources P. O. Box 7687 Raleigh, NC 27611-7687 Attn: Ms. Coleen Sullins Amoco Charlotte Terminal - Comments on #NC0005185 I have reviewed the subject proposed NPDES permit and would make the following comments: 1) Outfall numbers/locations: because the terminal is located on a topographic divide between two different tributaries of the Catawba River and individual outfall points discharge to differjent tributaries, there has been a good deal -of confusion over which outfall discharges to which tributary. This confusion was compounded by a map which has labels for outfalls 002 and 003 transposed. This map was originally submitted by Law Environmental in 1989 as part of an application for NPDES permit for outfall 005 and was resub fitted as part of the application for renewal of NPDES permit for outfalls 001, 002, 003, and 004 on March 28, 1991. I have reviewed the existing documentation back to 1985 and would like to offer the following proposed wording for variol.�s sections of the draft NPDES permit. This wording will correct the errors caused by the confusion. Draft NPDES Permit like to Page 1, third paragraph "to receiving waters designated as an unnamed tributary to Gum Branch for outfalls 003 and 004, and an unnamed tributary to Long Creek for outfalls 002, 005, and 006 in the Catawba River Basin" Page 2 Page 2, first paragraph "1. Continue to operate oil/water separators in conjunction with outfalls 002 and 004, continue to discharge stormwater from outfalls 002, 003, and 006, and, after receiving an Authorization to Construct from the Division of Environmental Management, construct and operate a groundwater remediation project for outfall 005 consisting of an oil/water separator, granucLar activated carbon fluid bed reactor, two multimedia filters (inparallel),clarifier, filter backwash tank, nutrient addition, and oxygen generation at a facility located at NC1Highway 27, near the town of Thrift, Mecklenburg County (See Part III of this Permit), and" Page , second paragraph 2. Discharge from said treatment works at the location on the attached map into an unnamed tributary to Gum Branch for outfalls 003 and 004, and into an unnamed tributary to Long Creek for outfalls 002, 005, and 006 which are both class:f ied Class WS IV waters in the Catawba River Basin. 2) Amoco requests that the discharge limitations on phenols for the outfalls be converted from a daily max. concentration basis to a daily max. mass limit. Other NPDES permits for termi als in the state (including NPDES Permit #NC0003671 for our Greensboro Terminal) have been converted to allow better control over the actual physical mass of phenols that are discharged to the receiving stream during each day. This change would benefit the receiving stream in that it would limit the actual mass discharged to the stream on any given day. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed NPDES permit. lease contact me at (404) 512-6876 if you have any questions. J. W.
