NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Beverly Eaves Perdue Coleen H. Sullins Dee Freeman Governor Director Secretary January 7; 2010 Mr. Blair W. Knox, Town Manager Town of Pilot Mountain 124 West Main Street Pilot Mountain, NC 27041 Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NC0068365 Town of Pilot Mountain WTP Surry County Dear Mr. Knox: 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). The terms included in this final permit exhibit some changes from those found in draft permit sent to you on November 17, 2009. These changes include: • The reference to dechlorination in the facility description has been removed. • Monitoring for Total Zinc has been removed because the facility does not use a zinc compbund as a corrosion inhibitor. Monitoring for ammonia nitrogen has been removed because the WTP does not use chloramines. • Monitoring for Chronic Toxicity has been changed to specify monitoring during the months of January, April, July and October. This monitoring schedule coincides with that for the wastewater treatment plant. It is hoped this change will help in coordinating such testing with your laboratory. While we are indeed sensitive to the fiscal and operational matters you pointed out in your November 30, 2009 letter, we are unable to make any further modification to the terms of the final permit. Its terms are consistent with those included in NPDES permits for conventional WTPs throughout the state. 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 Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699.1617 Location: 512 N.

The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 µg`/L to be in compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 µme• 2. The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units, nor greater than 9.0 standard units. 3. Monitoring should be performed in conjunction with toxicity testing. 4. Toxicity testing is to be conducted during the months of January, April, July and October. See Condition A. (2.) for toxicity testing requirements. Toxicity sampling should coincide with sampling for parameters covered by footnote 3. There shall be no floating solids or foam in other than trace amounts. Permit NC0068365 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY MONITORING (QUARTERLY) The permittee shall conduct quarterly chronic toxicity tests using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure document is 3 %. The testing shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 7day pass/fail test. The tests will be performed during 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. 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, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, N.C. 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 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 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, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately. Upon submission of a valid test, 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 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. Sledge, Bob From: John Martin [johnwastewaterl @yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, January 04, 2010 1:19 PM To: Sledge, Bob Subject: RE: Draft Permit #NC0068365 questions Thanks for the reply Bob. We use only chlorine as a disinfectant and Sodium Hexametaphosphat for corrosion control. Our water system operates at a deficet and any reduction in monitoring will be greatly appreciated in the final permit. We do not have a effluent flow meter the reported values in the past were influent amounts. As stated before this system was designed to treat about 10 times the alum sludge as it does now. The effluent valve is only opened monthly to keep it exercisrd and samples are taken from within the lagoon itself.

The alum sludge discharge line does not have a flow meter installed on it as the draft permit states. 2. The alum sludge lagoon does not have dechloriniation. 3. The expanded testing proposed in this permit ( toxicity and other chemical compounds) will greatly impact the operation of this facility financially. Pilot Mountain has the second highest water rate schedule of all municipalities in Surry County and we are laboring under a tremendous burden of debt. In exploring all of our options such as abandoning this discharge and hauling the alum sludge to our waste water treatment plant and/or seeking a no return option of pumping the effluent to our raw water reservoir there seems to be no economical solution. Our water treatment plant which is designed to treat 1,500,000 gallons daily is currently treating approximately 1,500,000 weekly. Eighty percent of the water going to the alum sludge lagoon is (filter to waste water) with little or no residual chlorine in it. Our plant only operates approximately 8 out of 48 hours and this filter to waste is approximately 10,000 gallons of those 48 hours. The vast majority of the contents of the alum sludge lagoon is evaporated out due to extended holding times. The actual discharge valve is only operated monthly to keep it exercised. It is our opinion that the options that are described above and the costs associated with them will require a substantial water rate increase to our citizens and would not greatly increase the impact of the water quality of Toms Creek. We would respectfully request that our current limitation criteria in our current permit be continued as the Town of Pilot Mountain is barely financially solvent. Thanks again for your consideration in this matter and we are hopeful that our dire situation will affect your decision. Sincerely , Blair W.
