Re: Permit Renewal Application for Mallard Creek WRF Reclaimed Water System
Permit No. WQ0013252
Dear Mr. Thornburg:
Please find enclosed the permit renewal application package for the Mallard Creek WRF Reclaimed
Water System (Permit No. WQ0013252). In addition to the Reclaimed Water System Renewal Form
(RWS-R-02-21), this application package includes the following attachments:
1. Attachment A — Site Map
Three site maps were prepared. One depicts the entire reclaimed water system. The other two
present more detailed information at the Mallard Creek WRF site (storage and pumping) and
the authorized user areas (utilization).
2. Attachment G — Easement, Encroachment, and Lease Agreements
Agreements between Charlotte Water and the authorized users are currently being renegotiated.
Pursuant to a meeting on October 15 with the Non -Discharge Permitting Unit, Charlotte Water
was advised to provide an explanation of the status of the agreements to satisfy the
requirements under Attachment G. This explanation is included in the application package.
3. Attachment I — Compliance Schedules
An explanation of the Compliance Schedules contained in the existing permit is included in the
application package.
4. Attachment K — Industrial Wastewater (SIU Permits)
In a meeting on October 15 with the Non -Discharge Permitting Unit, Charlotte Water was
advised that copies of the industrial pretreatment program permits held by the Significant
Industrial Users (SIUs) that discharge to the Mallard Creek WRF would satisfy the information
requirements for Industrial Wastewater. These permits are included in the application package.
Attachment F requires the applicant to demonstrate future wastewater treatment capacity relative to
current average flow through the treatment facility. Although current average flow through the Mallard
Creek WRF is 79% of the facility's permitted capacity, the Non -Discharge Permitting Unit advised
Charlotte Water at a meeting on October 15 to skip this attachment after Charlotte Water explained the
construction plans in progress to expand Mallard Creek WRF from 12 mgd to 16 mgd.
Please let us know if you have any questions or require any further information by contacting Shannon
Sypolt, our Water Quality Program Administrator, at 704.336.4581 or by email at
shannon.sypolt@charlottenc.gov. We very much appreciate your assistance.

Reclaimed Water has historically been applied at utilization sites on property owned not by Charlotte
Water, but rather by the authorized users listed in the current permit (Traditions Golf Course and
Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation). Attached is the operational agreement between Charlotte
Water and the Traditions Golf Course which sets the terms and conditions of accepting and utilizing
reclaimed water on the golf course property. A similar document between Charlotte Water and
Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation is not available. However, negotiations with both authorized
users to establish new individual operational agreements prior to resuming reclaimed water service are
in progress. Charlotte Water will submit the final, executed versions to the Division of Water Resources
once they are completed.

This permit is being renewed for a five year period effective July, 12019 and shall expire June 30,, 2024.
Several changes to the permit include an established limit for Molybdenum based on available allocation at
Mallard Greek WWTP and industry need. The limit for Chromium was lowered in order to maintain the
current quarterly monitoring frequency. The calculation to convert mg/I to Ibsfday was included on the limits
page.. The pretreatment equipment list was updated to include tank sues._ An updated image of the facility
was included in Part I.A. In Part III.P. gas/vapor toxicity screening limits have been added. Mallard Creek
%WTP's telephone number was updated in Part KY. The Permit Modification History in Part IV. was updated
listing the history In chronological order beginning with the most recent updates.
,lulu 1. 2014
This permit it being renewed with several changes. At the request of the industry the flow limit has been
increased to .0410 MGD. Cyanide and Bickel limits are being lowered in order to maintain the current
quarterly monitoring for these parameters. Based on data from 2012 and 2013, these new tower limits remain
well .shove discharge concentrations. The CBQD monitoring requirement is being removed. Over the past
two years the maximum CSOD discharge was less than 1% of the available allocation in the Mallard Creek
Vt WTP Basin. CBOd concentrations also correlate well with COD concentrations, which remain as a
monitored parameter. Additionally; the monitoring requirement for Copper is being reduced from monthly to
quarterly, Over a two year period no data ;points approach 5% of the available allocation for the Mallard
Creek VVV%TP.. The facility map has been updated, all references to CIIl U have been changed to CMUd, and
the System Protection Emergency phone number has been updated.

imposed limits are based upon* these regulations and the need of the Sit! as shown by the historical data
revievred for the last two years. The combined waste stream formula was not applied. This facility states
that only process wastewater is discharged through Pipe 001. Copper limit raised to categorical maximum
on daily and monthly Molybdenum was dropped from permit (historical data revealed trace

under Charlotte Water — System Protection Industrial Pretreatment Program. Please review the ENTIRE
permit and pay attention to the pages indicated as revised; all sections are essential. The permit was
modified as follows:
1) Pretreatment equipment list was updated to include existing bleach odor control system and
sludge dewatering boxes.
2) Part I.B. Increased flow permit limit from 0.118 MGD to 0.135 MGD per industry request due to
production growing since 2019 and projected to continue to rise for the next five years.
3) Categorical limits and OPCSF limits were increased in accordance with process flow increases.
Cyanide and lead are not included because they are not present in the waste stream and these
constituents are not a byproduct of their production process and are not in the finished products.
4) Part I.B. A maximum flow rate of 100 GPM has been added due to flow limitations in the area.
5) Part I.B. i added "GPM" definition.
6) Industry name was changed from Mallard Creek Polymers Incorporated to Mallard Creek
