The purpose of this letter, is to notify you of the change to the peanut condition regarding
Electronic Reporting of Discharge. Monitoring Reports. The Division of Water Resources has
unposed a new permit condition into new and re -issued NPDES permits requiring perniittees to.
begin using the Division's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDDMR) interact application.
NPDES permits recently issued contained a compliance period of 90 days to meet this
requirement. This compliance period has been subsequently changed and extended to 270 days.
Beginning no later than 270 days from your NPDES permit's effective date, you shall begin
reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the Division's eDMR internet
application.
This letter serves to amend your NPDES permit as noted above. Please attach this letter to
NPDES permit.

There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.

Permit NC0021628
A. (2) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY)
The permit holder shall perform at a minirnum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the 'North
Carolina Cerioduphnia 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 March, June, September, and December. 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, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Section
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
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, accurate, include all supporting chemicaUphysical 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 Section 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 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.
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.

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
Section A. Definitions
2/Month
Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events.
3 /Week
Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days.
Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, 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
conform, the geometric mean of such discharges.
Arithmetic Mean
The summation ofthe 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 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
(3) 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
(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

If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility being
physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband access, then a
temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted and discharge
monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by
the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be submitted in
writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the facility would be
required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months

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.

Subject: Speculative Effluent Limits
Norwood WWTP
Permit No. NC0021628
Stanly County
Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin
This letter provides *speculative effluent limits for 0.9 MGD and 1.2 MGD at the Norwood WWTP.
The Division received the speculative limits request in a letter dated October 16, 2014. Please
recognize that speculative limits may change based on future water quality initiatives, and it is
highly recommended that the applicant verify the speculative limits with the Division's NPDES
Unit prior to any engineering design work
Receiving Stream, .The Rocky River is located within the Yadkin - Pee Dee River Basin. Rocky
River has a stream classification of C, and waters with this classification have a best usage for
aquatic life propagation and maintenance of biological integrity, wildlife, secondary recreation
and agriculture. At the location of the proposed discharge the Rocky River has a summer 7Q10
flow of 42 cfs, a winter 7Q10 flow of 74 cfs, and an annual average flow of 1403 cfs with a
drainage area of 1403 mil.
The Rocky River is currently listed as an impaired waterbody on the 2014 North Carolina
303(d) Impaired Waters List for turbidity. The speculative limits include limits for Total
Suspended Solids to address the turbidity impairment.
Based upon a review of information available from the North Carolina Natural Heritage
Program Online Map Viewer, there are Federally Listed threatened or endangered aquatic
species identified within a 5 mile radius of the proposed discharge location. If there are any
identified threatened/endangered species, it is recommended that the applicant discuss the
proposed project with the US Fish and Wildlife Service to determine whether the proposed
discharge location might impact such species.
Speculative Effluent Limits. Based on Division review of receiving stream conditions and
water quality modeling results, speculative limits for the proposed expansion to 0.9 MGD and

1,2 MGD are presented in Table 1. A complete evaluation of these limits and monitoring
requirements for metals and other toxicants, as well as potential instream monitoring
requirements, will be addressed upon receipt of a formal NPDES permit application. Some
features of the speculative limit development include the following:
• HOD Limits. The BOD lintit fox the proposed 0.9 MGD flow is based on secondary
treatment standards. BOD limit for the proposed 1,2 MGD flow is based on modeling
results for protection of the instream DO standard.
• Ammonia Limits, Ammonia limits are based on modeling results for protection of the
in.stream. DO standard.
•Total Residual ChlorinelTRC) limTts, Limits for TRC are based on protection for aquatic
toxicity.

Endneering Alternatives Analysis (E.AA). The proposed expansion is below the threshold of
0.5 MGD for projects subject to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). Please note that the
Division cannot guarantee that an NPDES permit for a new or expanding discharge will be
issued with these speculative limits. Final decisions can only be made after the Division
receives and evaluates a formai permit application for the new/expanded discharge. In.
accordance with North Carolina Administrative Code 15A. NCAC 21-1.0105(c)„ the most
enviromnentally sound alternative should be selected from all reasonably cost effective.
options. Therefore, as a component of all NPDES permit applications for new or expanding
flow, a detailed engineering alternatives analysis (EAA) must be prepared, The EAA must
justify requested flows and provide an analysis of potential wastewater treatment alternatives.
A copy of the Division guidance for preparing EAA docu.ments is attached,

Should you have any questions about these speculative limits or NPDES permitting
requirements, please feel free to contact Teresa Rodriguez at [phone] or Tom Beinick at

SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
PART E. TOXICITY TESTING DATA
POTWs meeting one or more of the following criteria must provide the results of whole effluent toxicity tests for acute or chronic toxicity for each of the
facility's discharge points: 1) POTWs with a design flow rate greater than or equal to 1.0 mgd; 2) POTWs with a pretreatment program (or those that are
required to have one under 40 CFR Part 403); or 3) POTWs required by the permitting authority to submit data for these parameters.
• At a minimum, these results must indude quarterly testing fora 12-month period within the past 1 year using multiple species (minimum of two
species), or the results from four tests performed at least annually in the four and one-half years prior to the application, provided the results
show no appreciable toxicity, and testing for acute and/or chronic toxicity, depending on the range of receiving water dilution. Do not include
information on combined sewer overflows in this section. All information reported must be based on data collected through analysis conducted
using 40 CFR Part i36 methods. In addition, this data must comply with CIA/QC requirements of 40 CFR Part 136 and other appropriate QAIQC
requirements for standard methods for analytes not addressed by 40 CFR Part 136.
• In addition, submit the results of any other whole effluent toxicity tests from the past four and one-half years. If a whole effluent toxicity test
conducted during the past four and one-half years revealed toxicity, provide any Information on the cause of the toxicity or any results of a
toxicity reduction evaluation, If one was conducted. •
• If you have already submitted any of the information requested in Part E, you need not submit it again. Rather, provide the information
requested in question E.4 for previously submitted information. If EPA methods were not used, report the reasons for using altemate methods.
If test summaries are available that contain all of the information requested below, they may be submitted in place of Part E.

Staff Report - 2013 Renewal
Page 2
Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstream uses: 'The receiving
stream is 6.0-80 feet wide at the point of discharge with an average flow of 1.,400 cfs.
The discharge is located a few miles upstream from the confluence of the Rocky
River and the Pee -Dee River. There are no water supply intakes directly downstream
froni this discharge.
PART II - DE,SCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
Volume%description of wastewater discharge (Outfall 001):
Outfall 001 consists of effluent from a 0.750 MGD WWTP.'The existing treatment consists
of a flow splitter box followed by dual bar screens (one mechanical and one manual), a grit
chamber„ a parshall flume, an ultrasonic flow recorder, dual concrete -lined aeration basins
with floating surface aerators, dual final clarifiers, a chlorine contact basin with gaseous
disinfection, liquid dechlorinati.on (sulfur dioxide), two sludge drying beds, and standby
power.
Possible toxic impacts to surface waters:
'The permittee has consistently passed all toxicity testing (1'IF chronic testing at 2,7%) since
last permit renewal.
PART III - OTHER PERTINENT Ii' FORMATION
Sludge is dried on site and theca transported to the Uwharrie F,nvironmental 1,
Republic Services, Inc.
d
by
The permittee notes in the renewal application (also noted i.n the 2003 and 2008
applications) that the design 'flow rate of the WWTP is 2.0 MGD whereas the Division has
historically noted the design flow as 0.750 MGD. During the site visit/inspection original
operating procedures/documents were found and reviewed; these note the design flow as
0.750 MGD with a peak flow rating of 2.0 MGD, The permittee was asked in the inspection
report to adjust fixture permit renewal submissions.
The per ttee purchased and installed a new mechanical bar screen (auger) in early 201.2
with full operation in July 2013 (final punch list completed by contractor). The previous.
mechanical bar screen had been inoperable for many years contributing to numerous
bypasses at the manual bar screen and allowing debris to pass through to the downstream
treatment units. The last reported bypass due to the inoperable equipment was in April
2011.
The permittee has had recurrent issues with fecal coliform .non-compliance during the last
permit term. The ORC was feeding chlorine and had increased the feed in response to the
violations. At the suggestion of MRO staff the ORC contracted to have the disinfection feed
system reviewed in late 2011. This review discovered cracks in the tubing within the
chlorine feed system allowing the gas to escape (into the storage room) before it was
delivered to the chlorine contact chamber. An annual review of the system is now

completed as preventative maintenance. Compliance with the fecal coliform permit limits
has greatly increased due these actions.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The permittee has requested permit renewal for the Norwood WWTP. A compliance evaluation
inspection was conducted in conjunction with this staff report. The facility appeared to be properly
operated and well maintained; effluent was clear with no floating solids or foam. The compliance
record of the permittee has greatly improved duo to the above -referenced operational changes. .
Pending receipt and approval of the draft permit, it is recommended that the subject permit be
renewed as requested.

WWT units were in good operational condition at the time of the site visit.
The Town does not propose any changes to the WWTP and/or Permit at this time. Upon
receipt and review of the draft permit, there may be a need for additional WWT facilities should the
draft incorporate additional and/or more stringent effluent limitations.
Pending a final review/approval of this request by the NPDES Unit, it is recommended that
the NPDES Permit for this facility be renewed.

Dear Mr. Morris:
AUG 2 6 2003
The NPDES Unit received your permit renewal application on August 21, 2003. Thank you for
submitting this package.
The permit renewal for this facility has been assigned to a staff member. This staff member will
contact you if further information is needed to complete the permit renewal. Please note that the
NPDES Unit has several vacant positions. This staff shortage has lasted for over 4 years and is
delaying all permit renewals, Our remaining permit writers are currently reviewing Authorizations
to Construct, speculative limit requests, major permit modifications and 201 plan updates 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 NC0021628 the existing requirements in your permit
will remain in effect until the permit is renewed (or the Division takes other action). We
appreciate your patience and understanding while we operate with a severely depleted staff. If
you have any additional questions concerning renewal of the subject permit, please contact
Charles Weaver at [phone], extension 511.

Troy is approximately 18 miles from Norwood.
The sludge is deposited at the landfill in Troy at a price of approximately $35.00 per ton plus
hauling fees.
Norwood officials hope to find a better way of handling sludge in the future, such as land
application, At the present time, the landfill seems to be the best option.

Attn: Mrs. Valery Stephens
Dear Mrs. Stephens:
Please accept Norwood's application to renew the permit- for the Norwood wastewater facility.
The only changes at the facility have been those in maintenance. Over 10,000 ft. of new I 8-inch
outfall line was installed from the plant to the Norwood town limits.
I feel the plant is operating satisfactorily, and the personnel are conscientious of their
responsibilities and do a good job.
If we have completed the application incorrectly, or if it is incomplete, please let us know and we
will gladly correct any mistakes or remit more information.
Sincerely,

AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A (2). CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia
dubia at an effluent concentration of 2.7 %.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, ,uarterly 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 March, June, September, and December. 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, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Water Quality
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 wilt be required
during the following month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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.
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.

• A TRC limit will be added
• Expiration date will be changed to January 31, 2009 in accordance with the basin schedule.
2.0 Summary
The Town of Norwood is requesting renewal of the existing permit for its wastewater treatment
facility. The facility discharge to the Rocky River, stream class C. The segment receiving
Norwood's discharge is not on the 303(d) list, however there is an upstream segment rated as
nonsuppporting for fecal coliform, turbidity, and sediment. The only impaired segments of the
Rocky River are in Mecklenburg County.
Norwood treats a combination of domestic and industrial wastes. The permittee has several
industrial users, however none are SIUs. Norwood Yarns (1000 gpd), AeroQuip (4000 gpd), and
Michelin Tire (9748 gpd) all discharge flows to the WWTP.
3.0 Compliance Summary
WET Testing
The facility is required to perform quarterly chronic toxicity testing at an effluent concentration of
2.7%. There was one test failure in September, 2002.

NPDES Permit Fact Sheet - 12/11/03 Town of Norwood
Page 2
NC0021628
Correspondence File Review
The facility seems to be well operated and maintained. A 2001 Notice of Deficiency recommends
that the facility incorporate MISS tests in the process control program. In 2002 it was observed
that the permittee was using a leveled area adjacent to the sludge drying beds as temporary
storage for scum/grease. In 2003 the inspector recommended that the town consider construction
of a sludge storage tank to facilitate sludge wasting.
DMRs
This facility has never been required to perform instream monitoring due to the lack of a
downstream sampling point providing the necessary access to the river (1994 WLA recommends
sampling 2 miles downstream of the discharge point). According to a previous fact sheet, the size
of the receiving stream and amount of dilution further diminish the need for instream sampling.
A summary of the effluent monitoring data is included in the table below. All effluent
concentrations appear to be well below the allowable limits. The facility's average flow for the
past three years is .44 MGD, which is below the design flow of .750 MGD. Norwood is at nearly
59% capacity. The facility was at 71% capacity in the previous permit cycle.

Town of Norwood
Stanly County, NC
Dear Mr. Morris:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0021628 was issued on February 13, 2004
for the discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose
of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and the liabilities in the event of failure
to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it is
suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular importance is Page 4 .
Page 4 sets forth the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for your discharge.
Your discharge must not exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed "Monitoring
Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types and sampling locations. Upon
commencement of your discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required monitoring. The
monitoring results must be entered on reporting forms furnished or approved by this Agency. If you
have not received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the forms, please
contact this Office as quickly as possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form
(DWQ Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form. It is imperative that all applicable
parts be completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required.
Please be advised that an annual administering and compliance monitoring fee may be
required for your facility. You will soon be receiving a statement from our Raleigh Office. It is
imperative that the fee be paid in a timely manner so as to prevent enforcement action or possible
revocation of your permit.

The remaining parts of the Permit set forth definitions, general conditions and special
conditions applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s). The
conditions include special reporting requirements in the event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment
unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater treatment plant
operator if you are operating wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in operation of
wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or discharged,
expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or approved by
this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES Permit subjects the Permittee
to enforcement action pursuant to Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil
penalty of up to $25,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties) may be assessed for such
violations. If you find at any time that you are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of
the Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A Special Order by Consent (SOC) may be
necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a five-year period. Permits are not
automatically renewed. Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days
prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of your Permit. This date is set forth on
Page 1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not automatically transferable. If you, as
the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that the Division of Water Quality
rescind the Permit or request that DWQ reissue the Permit to another party, if necessary.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of your
NPDES Permit. Please read the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville if
you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to providing any assistance.

SUPPLEMENT TO EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS
AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A (2). CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia
dubia at art effluent concentration of 2.7 %.
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 March, June, September, and December'. Effluent sampling for this testing shall beperformed
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, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Water Quality
1621 MaiI 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 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.
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.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the CIean Water Act, 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

consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
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 nil 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
(3) 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. FIow 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
(4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at
a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary
less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart
during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method
requires prior approval by the Director.

Stanly County, NC
Dear Mayor Almond:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0021628 was issued on May 3,
2000 for the discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State from your facility.
The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and the liabilities
in the event of failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have
not already done so, it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular
importance are Pages 4 and 5 .
Pages 4 and 5 set forth the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for your
discharge. Your discharge must not exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section
headed "Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies, sample types
and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your discharge (or operation), you must
initiate the required monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on reporting forms
furnished or approved by this Agency. If you have not received these forms, they should
be arriving shortly. If you fail to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting form (DEM Form MR-1),
plus instructions for completing the form. It is imperative that all applicable parts be
completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as required.
Please be advised that an annual administering and compliance monitoring fee may
be required for your facility. You will soon be receiving a statement from our Raleigh
Office. It is imperative that the fee be paid in a timely manner so as to prevent enforcement
action or possible revocation of your permit.
The remaining parts of the Permit set forth definitions, general conditions and special
conditions applicable to the operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s).
The conditions include special reporting requirements in the event of noncompliance,
bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for a
certified wastewater treatment plant operator if you are operating wastewater

facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type of
wastewater being treated or discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater
treatment facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES Permit subjects the
Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina
General Statutes. A civil penalty of up to $25,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties)
may be assessed for such violations. If you find .at any time that you are unable to comply
with the terms and conditions of the Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A
Special Order by Consent (SOC) may be necessary while pursuing action to obtain
compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a five-year period. Permits
are not automatically renewed. Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later
than 180 days prior to expiration. Please make note ofthe expiration date of your Permit.
This date is set forth on Page 1 of the Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not
automatically transferable. If you, as the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you
should request that the Division of Water Quality rescind the Permit or request that DWQ
reissue the Permit to another party, if necessary.
As mentioned previously, the purpose ofthis letter is to advise you of the importance
of your NPDES Permit. Please read the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in
Mooresville if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward to providing
any assistance.

STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
. 2. DEM or "the Division"
Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources.
3. EMC

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 poIIutant 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 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 I.
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 11
Page 3 of 14
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 /24of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample coIIected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (I) 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
(l).
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.

Part II
Page 4 of 14
10. Calendar Dav
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 Iisted as toxic under Section 307(a)(I) of the Clean Water Act.
SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Duty to Comply
The permittee must comply with all conditions of this permit. Any permit noncompliance
constitutes a;violation of the Clean Water Act and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit
termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit renewal application.

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.

The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 2.7 %.
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 March, June, September, and December. 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 11 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,
DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Water Quality
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.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
(continued)
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 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.
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.

Subject Renewal of NPDES Permit NC0021.628
Norwood WWTP
STANLY County
The subject permit expires on November 30, 1999. North Carolina Administrative Code 15A
NCAC 2H.0105(e) requires that an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to
expiration of the current permit.
To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package must be sent to the Division postmarked no
later than June 3, 1999. Failure to request renewal of the permit by this date will result in a civil
assessment of at least $250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of
the request.
If any wastewater discharge will occur after June 3, 1999 (or if continuation of the permit is
desired), the current permit must be renewed. Operation of wastewater treatment works or
continuation of discharge after June 3, 1999 would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-215,1
and could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
If all wastewater discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this permit,
contact Robert Farmer of the Division's Compliance Enforcement Unit at [phone], extension
531. You may also contact the Mooresville Regional Office at [phone] to begin the rescission
process.
Use the enclosed checklist to complete your renewal package. The checklist identifies the items
you must submit with the permit renewal application.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The permittee is requesting that the existing permit for the subject facility be renewed.
The facility was well operated and maintained on the day of the site inspection. Significant
stormwater flows associated with infiltration and inflow have been identified within the facility's
collection system. During the previous 12 months, the average wastewater flow to the plant has
approached 70% of the permitted capacity. During the previous 4 months, the average
wastewater flow to the plant has exceeded 90% of the permitted capacity. The permittee is in the
process of securing funds for repairs to the collection system to reduce the flow associated with
I&I.
The permittee also indicated that the existing ultrasonic flow meter appears to be
reporting flows approximately 0.10 MGD above the actual flow. The parshall flume is located
within five feet downstream of a 90 degree bend in the wastewater influent channel. During the
inspection whirlpools were observed in the immediate vicinity of the parshall flume. Based on
these observations, it appears that the ultrasonic flow measurements are elevated but to what
extent remains to be determined. If flow continues to be recorded at the present levels, the
mechanism for monitoring flow through the plant may need to be altered,
It is recommended that the permit be renewed as requested.

Dear Mavor Almond:
The Division received your permit renewal application on May 24, 1999.. Thank you for
submitting this package.
The permit renewal for this facility will be assigned to a member of the NPDES Unit staff.
Thal: staff member will contact you if further information is needed to complete the permit
renewal. I regret to inform you that (due to the Toss of several staff members) the NPDES Unit
currently has five vacant positions. This staff shortage is causing delays in our processing of
permit renewals. Our remaining staff members are currently reviewing Authorizations to
Construct, speculative limit requests, major permit modifications and 201 plan reviews 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 NCOO21628, the existing requirements in your
permit will remain. in effect until the permit is renewed (or the Division takes other action). We
appreciate your patience and understanding while we operate with a severely depleted staff. If you
have any additional questions concerning renewal of the subject permit, please contact me at

Wasteload Allocation Summary
(approach taken, correspondence with region, EPA, etc.)
Norwood WWTP is meeting its current limits. The facility has passed its toxicity tests for
the past 4 years. Pretreatment program has been dropped since last WLA. There is an ambient
station 5.5 miles upstream from discharge location at SR 1935 (summary attached). Did not
receive a standard A form to evaluate parameters of concern. Last WLA indicates facility has
permitted only Cu and Zn to its industries. IWC=2.7% The dilution ratio=36.1:1. NH3N
allowable (s) 29 mg/1 and (w) 102 mg/l. No limit is recommended. Recommend complete
adoption of existing limits. In the past, Norwood was not required to perform instream monitoring,'
`(I cauld-not-find-a reasoner-t file) ;however, I recommend weekly Instream monitoring for
D.O., Fecal Coliform, Temp. There has been a QUAL2E model ran on the Rocky River which
ended miles upstream from discharge. The study indicated problems in the upper Rocky River
watershed and we should be gathering more data in the lower part of watershed to determine if
problems exist there tooCov[d M adz(; c twv- - y-A-e /wnte4-6v$ , doci - f'`'V

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
is ‘2.17 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform
quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be
performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of
Mori (Tun. Sep , Dee. . Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES
permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
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 TGP3B.
Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
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.
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 any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and
modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism
survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements. 1

E. CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic
Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality is 2.7% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document).
The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance
with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date
of this permit during the months of March, June, September, and December. Effluent sampling
for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all
treatment processes.
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 TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention:
Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
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.
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 any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this
permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NO'1'h: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum
control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test
and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit
suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

5. Mass/Dv 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 clay 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 Measurement -
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 conform 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 I.
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.
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
dtaing 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 S ample s
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(I) 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. Toxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)0) of the Clean Water Act.

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
(1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee 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 normal

Part II
Page 9 of 14
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 determines that it will meet the three
conditions listed above in Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsetg
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 thepermittee. 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 permitter 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 II, B. 2. of this
permit.

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

Part II
Page 10 of 14
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 permitter
shall nbtify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant change in its sludge use or disposal
practices.
7. Power Failures
The permiuec is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by DEM
Regulation, Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H, .0124 Reliability,
to prevent the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated wastes during electrical power
failures either by means of alternate power sources, standby generators or retention of
inadequately treated effluent.
SECTION D. MONITORING AND RECORDS
1. Representative Sampling
Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be characteristic of the
volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples collected at a fitquency less than daily
shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge over the entire period
which the sample represents. All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in
this permit and, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other
wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed without
notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority.
2. Reactaing
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month
and reported on a monthly 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 DMR 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 a submitted to the
following address:

pursuant to NCGS 143-215.63 et. seq, the Water and 'Aar Quality Reporting Acts, and to
regulations published pursuant to Section 304(g), 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, as Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136; or in the case of sludge use or
disposal, approved'under 40 CFR 136, unless otherwise specified in 40 CFR 503, unless
other test procedures have been specified in this permit.
To meet the intent of the monitoring required by this permit, all test procedures must produce
minimum detection and reporting levels that are below the permit discharge requirements and
all data generated must be reported down to the minimum detection or lower reporting level of
the procedure. If no approved methods are determined capable of achieving minimum
detection and reporting levels below permit discharge requirements, then the most sensitive
(method with the lowest possible detection and reporting level) approved method must be used.
5. penalties for Tampering

or interference with the proper operation of the treatment works;
d. Wastewaters at a flow rate and/or pollutant concentration which will cause an
inhibition or disruption of the POTW, its treatment processes, operation, or sludge
use and disposal;
e. Heat in amounts which will inhibit biological activity in the treatment works, resulting
in interference but in no case heat in such quantities that the temperature at the treatment
works influent exceeds 40°C (104°F) unless the works are designed to
accommodate such heat;
f. Petroleum oil, nonbiodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral oil origin in
amounts that will cause interference or pass through;
Pollutants which result in the presence of toxic gases, vapors, or fumes within the
POTW in quantity that may cause acute worker health and safety problems;
h. Any trucked or hauled pollutants,- except at discharge points designated by the POTW.
3. With regard to the effluent requirements listed in Part I of this permit, it may be necessary
for the permittee to supplement the requirements of the Federal Pretreatment Standards (40
CFR, Part 403) to ensure compliance by the permittee with all applicable effluent
limitations. Such actions by the peirnittee may be necessary regarding some or all of the
industries discharging to the municipal system_

Part DI
4. The permittee shall require any industrial discharges into the permitted system to meet
Federal Pretreatment Standards promulgated in response to Section 307(b) of the Act.
Prior to accepting wastewater from any significant industrial user., the permittee shall either
develop and submit to the Division a Pretreatment Program for approval per15 NCAC 2H
.0907(a) or modify an existing Pretreatment Program per 15 NCAC 2H .0907(b).
5 . This permit shall be modified, or alternatively, revoked and reissued, to incorporate or
modify an approved POTW Pretreatment Program or to include a compliance schedule for
the development of a POTW Pretreatment Program as required under Section 402(b)(8) of
the Clean Water Act and implementing regulations or by the requirements of the approved
State pretreatment program, as appropriate.
B . Conspruction
No construction of wastewater treatment facilities or additions to add to the plant's treatment
capacity or to change the type of process utili7M at the treatment plant shall be begun until Final
Plans and Specifications have been submitted to the Division of Environmental Management
and written approval and Authorization to Construct has been issued.

The permittee shall, upon written notice from the Director of the Division of Environmental
Management, conduct groundwater monitoring as may be required to determine the compliance
of this NPDES permitted facility with the current groundwater standards.
D. Publicly Owned Treatment Works
All POTWs must provide adequate notice to the Director of the following: • •
1. Any new introduction of pollutants into the POTW from an indirect discharger which
would be subject to section 301 or 306 of CWA if it were directly discharging those
pollutants;. and
2. Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutants being introduced into that
POTW by a source introducing pollutants into the POTW at the time of issuance of the
permit.
3. For purposes of this paragraph, adequate notice shall include information on (1) the quality
and quantity of effluent introduced into the POTW, and (2) any anticipated impact of the
change on the quantity or quality of effluent to be discharged from the POTW.

10. Receiving Stream or Affected Surface Waters: Rocky River
a. Classification: C
b. River Basin and Subbasin No.: Yadkin 03-07-13
c. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent
downstream uses: The receiving stream is of considerable
size (15-20 yards wide x 1-4 feet deep) at the point of
discharge. The surrounding area is generally rural with
agriculture being the primary use. The river receives a
significant amount of domestic and industrial wastewater
from permitted point source dischargers upstream. There
are no known water intakes located on this river.
PART II - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
1. a. Volume of Wastewater: 0.750 MGD (Design Capacity)
b. Current permitted capacity: 0.750 MGD.
c. Actual treatment capacity: 0.750 MGD.
d. Description of existing treatment works: The existing
WWT facilities consists of a flow splitter box followed
by dual bar screens (one mechanical and one manual), a
grit chamber, a parshall flume, a flow recorder with
totalizer, dual aeration basins (concrete lined) with
floating surface aerators, dual secondary clarifiers, a
chlorine contact basin with gaseous disinfection
facilities, two (2) sludge drying beds and a stand-by
power generator.
e. Description of proposed treatment works: None proposed.
f. Possible toxic impacts to surface waters: The Town has
been very successful in passing toxicity test performed
at this facility. The prevalent toxic constituents
identified in the wastestream were copper and zinc
although not at levels considered to be toxic. Chlorine
is used for disinfection.
g. Pretreatment Program (POTWs only):
2. Residuals Handling and Disposal Scheme: Sludge removed from
the drying beds is currently being stockpiled on -site (it was
formally disposed at the Stanly County landfill). The Town is
currently evaluating residual disposal options, however, due
to the small amount of residuals generated annually, use of
the residuals in the final two (2) feet of cover at the
landfill (pending DSW approval) would appear to be the Town's
best option.
5. Treatment Plant Classification: Less than 5 points; no rating
(include rating sheet). Class II

1. Is this facility being c-onstructed with Construction Grants
Funds (municipals only)? This facility was constructed with
public monies.
2. Special monitoring requests: None at this time.
3. Additional effluent limits requests: None at this time.
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The WWT facility serving the Town of Norwood was well operated
and maintained on the day of the site inspection. The WWTP is
currently receiving approx. 50% of its hydraulic capacity. All WWT
units were in good operational condition.
The.Town does not propose any changes to the WWTP and/or
Permit at this time. This Office has not yet conducted a review of
the revised WLA, therefore, the need for additional WWT facilities
cannot be determined at this time.
Pending receipt and approval of the revised WLA, it is
recommended that the NPDES Permit for this facility be renewed.

Subject: NPDES Permit -No. NC0021628
Town of Norwood WWTP
Stanly County, NC
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0021628 was
issued on November 15, 1994 for the discharge of wastewater to the
surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose of
this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit and
the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the terms
and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done so, it
is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of particular
importance are Pages 4 and 5.
Pages 4 and 5 set forth the effluent limitations and
monitoring requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s)
must not exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section
headed "Monitoring Requirements" describes "the ,measurement
frequencies, sample types and sampling locations. Upon
commencement of your discharge (or operation), you must initiate
the required monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on
the reporting forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have
not received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you
fail to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly as
possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent" reporting
form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing the form.
It is imperative that all applicable parts be completed, and the
original and one copy be submitted as required.
The remaining Parts of the Permit set forth definitions,
general conditions and special conditions applicable to the
operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s).
The conditions include special reporting requirements in the event
of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process failures, etc.
Also addressed are requirements for a certified wastewater
treatment plant operator if you are operating wastewater treatment

facilities. Any changes in operation of wastewater treatment
facilities, quantity and type of wastewater being treated or
discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of wastewater treatment
facilities must be permitted or approved by this Agency.
- Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A civil
penalty of up to $10,000 per violation (and/or criminal penalties)
may be assessed for such violations. If you find at any time that
you are unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the
Permit, you should contact this Office immediately. A Consent
Order may be necessary while pursuing action to obtain compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed. Renewal
requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than 180 days
prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration date of
your Permit. This date is set forth on Page 1 of the Permit. Also
note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If you, as the
Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should request that
the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously,
advise you of the importance of
Permit and contact this Office
you have any questions or need
providing any assistance.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The WWT facility serving the Town of Norwood was well operated
and maintained on the day of the site inspection. The WWTP is
currently receiving approx. 50% of its hydraulic capacity. All WWT
units were in good operational condition.
The Town does not propose any changes to the WWTP and/or
Permit at this time. This Office has not yet conducted a review of
the revised WLA, therefore, the need for additional WWT facilities
cannot be determined at this time.
Pending receipt and approval of the revised WLA, it is
recommended that the NPDES Permit for this facility be renewed.

Wasteload Allocation Summary c5 �-
(approach taken, correspondence with region, EPA, etc.)
Norwood is meeting its current limits. The facility has passed its toxicity tests for the past 2 years:--
Pretreatment information indicates that the facility has permitted only Cu and Zn to its industries.
Because of the high dilution ratio, and because the facility is passing its toxicity tests, no
ammonia/tox choice will be required.
Norwood is not required to perform instream monitoring.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
-is 2.7 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform
quarterly monitoring using -this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be
performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of
ltlk 115ap 'Pee- . Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES
permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
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 TGP3B.
Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
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/Sesponse data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity
sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
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 any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and
modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minhnum control organism
survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements.
