therein.
i. The Permittee shall be considered a Co-Permittee Member for any given calendar year in which
it is identified as such in Appendix A of the association's group NPDES permit.
ii. Association roster(s) and members'TN allocations will be updated annually and in accordance

A. (6.) INSTREAM MONITORING REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
The Permittee shall record instream-monitoring data on a Division-approved form and summarize these
data in an annual report due by January 1st of the year immediately following the summer sampling
period. Send Yearly Instream Monitoring Reports to:
Attention: Modeling Unit
NC DENR/Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,NC 27699-1617
A. (7.) PHASED CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS
Influent volume shall at no time exceed the design capacity of the existing facility. Because this facility
is permitted to expand in phases,the Permittee shall submit an Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA)
plus any and all up-grade plans and specifications for the next phase before influent flow reaches 80 %
of the currently permitted design capacity (0.600 MGD), i.e. at a flow approaching 0.480 MGD.The
EAA,plans, and specifications shall be submitted to:
Attention NPDES Unit
NC DENR/Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,NC 27699-1617
A. (8.) ACUTE TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The Permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on a quarterly basis using protocols defined in the North
Carolina Procedure Document entitled Pass/Fail Methodology For Determining Acute Toxicity In A
Single Effluent Concentration (Revised-July, 1992 or subsequent versions). Analyses shall be performed
as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) 24-hour static test. This facility's effluent concentration at
which there may be no time-significant acute mortality is 90% (defined as treatment two in the
procedure document). The Permittee shall collect self-monitoring samples immediately effluent to all
combined treatment processes with the intent to provide samples representative of the facility's
discharge. The tests will be performed during the months of March,June,September, and December.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent
Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code
TGE6C. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-2 (original)is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Section
NCDENR/Division of Water Quality
. 1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1621

Permit NC0033111
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental 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.
No Flow -- 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 Section at the address cited above.
Test Failures/ Follow-up Testing -- Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet
specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is
passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified
above. Should the Permittee fail to monitor during an assigned month, then monthly monitoring will
begin immediately and continue until a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement
will revert to quarterly in the months specified above.
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.
WARNING: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum
control-organism survival or 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. Should any test data, from either these monitoring requirements or
tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, indicate potential impacts to the
receiving stream, this permit may be re-opened and modified to include alternate monitoring
requirements or limits.
