Permit NC0006548
A. (3) 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 4.5 %.
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 daring the months of January, April, July and October. 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 Section
North Carolina Division of Water Quality
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be flied 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.

SUMMARY
This is a minor renewal for a poultry processor (0.70 MGD). The discharge is 100% industrial, with
domestic wastewater piped to city sewer. The facility discharges via Outfall 001 to Fisher River
(Class C), which is not listed on the 2003 303 (d) list. New guidelines for the Poultry Industry were
published in 2003. The permit limits for this renewal were established in accordance with these
newly published regulations for Poultry Processing.
INSTREAM MONITORING
Instream monitoring is required for temperature and dissolved oxygen. An analysis of DO,
temperature and conductivity data showed that the facility has no noticeable effect on the receiving
stream (table is attached).
TOXIQTY TESTING:
Type of Toxicity Test: Chronic Phase II
Existing Limit: 001: Chronic ChV @ 4.5%
Recommended Limit: 001: Chronic ChV @ 4.5%
Monitoring Schedule: January, April, July, and October
This facility has been consistently passing all toxicity tests.
COMPLIANCE HISTORY
The facility has a good compliance record. During the review period (01/2001-09/2004) only 4
Notices of Violation (NOV) were issued for violating fecal (1 NOV), and flow limits (minor
excursions over the limit). The most recent compliance evaluation inspection conducted on
01/30/2004 found that facility is compliant with the permit and that the treatment system appeared
to be well maintained and operated.

NPDES PERMIT FACT SHEET Wayne Farms LLC
Page 2 NPDES No. NC0006548
Analysis of DMRs for the year 2003 indicates that the facility should be able to meet new limits for
BOD, TSS, O&G, NH3-N, and TN. There was only one month during 2003 (December) when
concentration of BOD, TSS and NH3-N exceeded proposed limits.

Dear Mr. Chernikov,
On behalf of Wayne Farms LLC, please find here initial comments regarding the referenced draft NPDES
permit, and your October 27, 2004 cover letter. At this time, Wayne Farms requests an extension for
three months from the current proposed issuance date of December 2004 to March 2005. A consultant
engineering firm has been employed to investigate the wastewater system, report the findings and make
recommendations regarding the current draft permit. Wayne Farms will make additional comments on
the current proposed draft permit by March 2005, following review of the engineering firm's report.
Additionally, we also request an extension to February 1, 2006 for the permit effective date. This
extension is necessary to provide time to consider the existing wastewater treatment system pollutant
removal efficiencies and final effluent quality to determine overall system ability to meet the new
constituent limits.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone] if you wish to further discuss this issue.

Sergei - Attached is an emailed copy of the response from Wayne Farms. They are asking
for a permit issuance date of 3/1/05 with the new limits becoming effective on 2/1/06.
Russ Dickson is meeting with their consultant engineer (John Reed, PE) at the Dobson
facility on 12/2 to discuss the upgrade options. Fine tuning of the construction
schedule may be necessary once the consultant's recommendations are received. I'll
keep you posted. Thanks, Mike.

Sergei,
Marshall Hyatt has agreed with the approach of two sets of limits in the permit.
Hopefully you guys agree also. Mike Mickey is talking with the company to get a
timeframe that they can apply for the WWTP upgrades and get the construction completed
so the date of the second set of limits can be determined.
Thanks

Marshall,
Wayne Foods (NC0006548) is a poultry processor. Existing permit expired in Dec.
2003. Previous limits were mass limits and they have continually been in compliance
with their limits. The new draft permit is concentration based and they are
expecting some compliance problems, especially with oil and grease in the winter
months based of previous data. My recommendation is to issue the permit with its
existing limits for 12-18 months and give them time to construct a new DAF unit and
then a second set of limits (concentration based) would kick in on a date certain.
Nothing has changed at the facility except the limits which would then be the
concentration based limits. Based on our discussions this morning you indicated
that this approach should not present a problem as far as EPA is concerned.
If you can concur please let Sergei and me know.
Thanks
Steve

Guess we need to talk so I get the particulars on Wayne Foods. I need
to understand what's in the current permit re limits and any schedule
and how the draft is different. Sergei's email to you might stem from
a recent draft permit he sent here where the current permit had a
compliance schedule that the facility ended up not meeting and Sergei
developed a draft permit with a new, extended schedule. Having a
schedule in one permit and then having a new, extended schedule in a
reissuance just isn't appropriate. Permits shouldn't be used to handle
a situation where enf is needed.
I'm around Mon -Wed, but late this afternoon I have a conf call. call me
when you are free at 404-562-9304.
Before I forget, what's your phone #?

Hi Samantha - I am needing some clarification on the new effluent guidelines for
poultry. The NPDES permit for Wayne Farms, LLC is currently up for renewal
(NC0006548). They process approximately 183 million pounds LWK of poultry per
year. Subpart (K), Sec. 432-112, lists effluent limitations for BPT and BAT? How
is it determined which limits (BPT /BAT) are applicable to this facility? Thanks,
Mike.

Mike- With the reorg, this permit renewal will likely be transferred to someone else, since I
haven't started it. A few years back EPA proposed some revisions to the Effluent Guidelines for
the poultry industry, but I haven't kept track to know whether they ever became effective. Wayne
Farms should know this status, and whether it will impact their operation. If there were no
changes to the Effluent Guidelines, then I wouldn't anticipate many changes to their permit.

Tom - I got a call from Wayne Farms this morning inquiring about the status of their expired

Tom - I'm forwarding you this email since BIMS says you are the reviewer for their NPDES renewal.
Lucky you. The issue here is the facility's three GW monitoring wells. They are not covered by any
permit (evidently required by a previous ATC). However, Wayne Farms has continued to monitor,
with the results indicating increasing contaminant levels, prompting them line their sludge storage
lagoons (covered by an ATC issued 8/14/03). The GWS wants Wayne Farms to continue monitoring
these wells. So, can a condition be added to the renewed NPDES permit requiring this monitoring?
Thanks, Mike.

Just an update on this issue...
I received a telephone call from Dr. Max Saffley (sp.?) of AWT, Inc. who
is Wayne Farms, L.L.C.'s consultant earlier this afternoon. Evidently,
the Permittee would like to begin the pond liner rehabilitation work
beginning next week. He had the project manual hand -delivered to me
today, which I have since put in Dave's mailbox downstairs. He may be
calling you, Dave, tomorrow to see whether or not a determination as to
whether an ATC for this work is required. At this point, this issue is
his focus...he is less concerned about the NPDES permit renewal and
whether or not it is decided to incorporate groundwater monitoring
conditions into that permit.
BTW, the existing clay liners are being replaced with synthetic material.

Subject: Re: Wayne Farms, L.L.C. Dobson Plant Situation (NC0006548)
From: George Smith <[e-mail]>

<[e-mail]>, Sherri Knight <[e-mail]>
I spoke with Bruckie Ashburn, ORC, this morning. I understand that an A-C was submitted, which
includes plans and specifications for the plastic liner to be installed in each of the two sludge
basins. I am not sure who has a copy of the plan.
0n July 12, 1999 an EAA was submitted with a NPDES permit modification, which included the sludge
storage lagoons and land application. According to the conversation I had with the ORC this
morning, a dewatering/sludge press was evaluated, but this is not economically feasable.
Although I have not seen the submitted plan, but understand that Raleigh has a copy, I would
suggest that an A-C be issued in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0138 and that Wayne Farms must
comply with all terms and conditions of the Land Application permit WQ0004609. The installation of
a liner appears to be a great idea.
Any way I can help, please let me know.
Thanks,
George Smith

Dave & Tom,
Sherri Knight of WSRO-GWS contacted us about a situation at the above -referenced facility. The
situation, Dave, sounds so much like the MSD Buncombe County one on which we have been working on
that it incredible.
There are two'sludge digesting/drying/holding ponds at this facility which were approved for
construction under an ATC in the mid-1980s. Soon after this ATC was issued, a letter was written
to require that groundwater monitoring wells be placed around the ponds, sampled/analyzed, and
reported to us. Even though this language was never incorporated into a permit, the Permittee
has been diligently complying with it ever since. The receipt of the data actually confused
WSRO-GWS because they couldn't figure out why it was being submitted (i.e., it wasn't a
requirement of WQ0004609)!!!
Here are our questions:
* Can we handle this the same way that we handled MSD Buncombe County? This permit expires on
12/31/2003, so the groundwater monitoring conditions could be easily incorporated into the
renewed permit. BTW, the Permittee told Sherri that they submitted an application to renew this
permit back in April; however, BIMS does not show that we ever received it???
* The groundwater monitoring does show some elevated groundwater levels. The Permittee is
wanting to be very proactive and re -line the two ponds (existing liners are clay). Is an ATC
required before the Permittee may initiate this work? Sherri does want to continue to encourage
this proactive spirit, so the quickest way to accommodate this is the best.
Thanks for any input that you might be able to provide...
