Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit.
Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued
pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9,
1994 (or as subsequently amended).
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are
unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within
thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition,
conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of

To: Linda Willis <[e-mail]>
Hi Linda,
I finally had a chance to speak with an engineer regarding the region's permit
renewal recommendations for the 2 subject facilities. Concerning Ocean Forest and
the recommendation to revoke the permit, as I indicated to you over the phone, I did
not think we were able to do this. Aqua is looking to regionalize one of their
facilities and intends to then request rescission of the Ocean Forest permit.
However, we are not sure they we be allowed to expand their facility (the Cape WWTP)
due to some TMDL and impaired water issues. If this happens to be the case, then
they will probably move forward with building the plant at Ocean Forest.
With regards to Beau Rivage Plantation, the limits issued is based on numbers that
are derived from a model used to determine allowable parameter limits. We do not
tighten limits even if we know the facility can meet the lower limit. Once the
facility expands, they will then be required to meet the lower effluent limits for
ammonia nitrogen.
Thanks for your evaluation of these facilities, and if you have further questions or
comments, please let me know.

PART H - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS
1. a. Volume of wastewater to be permitted: 0.1, 0.2 and 0.5 MGD
b. What is the current permitted flow limit? 0.1 MGD, Note: Three permitted discharges
are identified to accommodate the phase -wise expansion of the facility.
c. Actual treatment capacity of the current facility? 0.1 MGD.
d. Date(s) and construction activities allowed by previous Authorizations to Construct
issued in the previous two years: March 30, 2006.

treatment facilities: Existing facilities consist of: influent bar screen, extended aeration
tank, clarifier, sludge holding basin and liquid chlorination.
f. Please provide a description of proposed wastewater treatment facilities:
Phase I upgrade will provide 0.2 MGD concrete constructed facility. A new 0.10 MGD
facility will be built next to the existing 0.1 MGD facility. Once the new facility is on
line the old plant will be decommissioned and removed from the site. A second 0.1
MGD facility will be built to bring the capacity to 0.20 MGD. The proposed upgrade
will provide dual train reliability, flow EQ (25% of design flow), tertiary filters,
ultraviolet disinfection with post air and an effluent ultrasonic flow meter.

(municipals only) involved? N/A
2. Special monitoring or limitations (including toxicity) requests: None
3. Important SOC, JOC or Compliance Schedule dates: N/A
4. Alternative Analysis Evaluation: Not done.
5. Other Special Items: None
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This facility generally produces a quality effluent within permit limitations, but over the last
year has experienced periods of high inflow from storm events. The average flow has been
approximately 0.04 MGD. During heavy rain events the flow has increased to 0.08 MGD
suggesting problems with I and I. The facility will be expanded to 0.20 MGD as a two phase
upgrade. Phase II involves an upgrade to 0.50 MGD. Upgrades to 0.5 MGD will not affect
the classification of the facility as nutrient removal will not be included in the permit
limitations. The EAA provided by Aqua North Carolina indicated no alternatives to building
the upgraded facility. According to the Cape Fear River Basinwide Water Quality Plan, the
Cape Fear River within this segment is impaired for aquatic life due to low DO. The pH was
also below the standard. Beau Rivage Plantation WWTP discharge is to class SC waters. It
is recommended that the monthly average ammonia limits of 2.0 and 4.0 mg/L for summer
and winter and daily maximum ammonia limits of 10.0 and 20.0 mg/L for summer and
winter be included in the permit page for 0.10 MGD flow, rather than 20 mg/L monthly
average and 35 mg/L daily maximum. A review of the DMRs for the past several indicates
the facility has demonstrated the ability to treat ammonia to meet the more stringent effluent
limits. All monitoring frequencies appear to be in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0500 or
no less stringent than the previous permit.

If no significant adverse public comment is received, WiRO recommends the permit be
reissued to Aqua North Carolina (Beau Rivage Plantation WWTP (NC0065480)) in
accordance with the Basinwide Plan strategy for the Cape Fear River.

Vanessa,
No construction has not been completed yet. Bidding the project took
sometime because initial bids came back much higher than we expected.
We rebidd the project and got much better results the second time.
Presently, we are gearing up to start construction within the next
month. Unfortunately, it looks like we will need the 0.1 MGD permit
page for at least awhile longer.

Subject: Beau Rivage Plantation Permit Renewal
Hi Mike,
I am working on the permit renewal for Beau Rivage WWTP (nc0065480), and
I noticed an ATC was issued for plant construction earlier this year.
Has construction been completed as called for and has an engineer's
certification been submitted? If this is the case, then I can go ahead
and omit the 0.1 mgd flow tier from the draft permit. If not, I will
leave this language and tier within the renewal. Let me know at your
earliest. If I do not hear from you, I will keep the tier information
within the draft and we can change it before final processing if needed.
Thanks,
Vanessa

Hi Mike,
I am working on the permit renewal for Beau Rivage WWTP (nc0065480), and I noticed an
ATC was issued for plant construction earlier this year. Has construction been
completed as called for and has an engineer's certification been submitted? If this
is the case, then I can go ahead and omit the 0.1 mgd flow tier from the draft
permit. If not, I will leave this language and tier within the renewal. Let me know
at your earliest. If I do not hear from you, I will keep the tier information within
the draft and we can change it before final processing if needed.
Thanks,
Vanessa

RE: NPDES PERMIT RENEWAL
NC0065480 — AQUA NORTH CAROLINA, BEAU RIVAGE WWTP
Dear Mr. Vinzani:
On behalf of AQUA North Carolina, Stearns & Wheler hereby requests renewal of
NPDES permit number NC0065480 for the Beau Rivage WWTP.
The Division of Water Quality issued a modification to the above referenced NPDES
permit on October 26, 2005. The modification approved expansion of the treatment
facility and installation of a 0.2 mgd flow tier. Authorization to Construct (ATC) the
expanded facility was requested on November 18, 2005 with the ATC permit following
on March 30, 2006. Upon completion of construction and submittal of the Engineer's
Certification, the 0.1 mgd flow tier will not be needed, leaving only the 0.2 mgd and the
0.5 mgd flow tiers.
Thank you for your efforts with this renewal. If you have any questions or concerns,
please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone] or Mike Myers at [phone].
Yours truly,
