What is the current permitted capacity of the Wastewater Treatment facility? IN/A 0.08 MGM c. Actual treatment capacity of the current facility (current design capacity)? frsT/4 d. Please provide a description of the existing or substantially constructed wastewater treatment facility: The Clean Burn Fuels is an ethanol production facility that will ferment kernels of corn and distill the ethanol that is produced for the purpose of fuel grade ethanol for fuel in automobiles. The expected start-up date for the facility is January 15, 2010, and it will have combined blowdown flow of 0.08 MGD from both the cooling tower blowdown and the boiler blowdown, 46 gallons/minute and 10 gallons/minute, respectively. There is no construction of wastewater treatment facilities that is proposed, but some treatment, through degradation of the biocides will be achieved in the stormwater retention pond. This pond is designed as a wet detention pond with a capacity of 1.695 million gallons and will provide 21.2 days of detention time before flowing to Little Marsh Swamp. Inline filters will collect air compressor condensate oil, and the filtered condensate will flow back into the process. The used oil filters will be sent to landfill.

Alternative Analysis Evaluation: Has the facility evaluated all of the non -discharge options available? Please provide the regional perspective for each of the options that were evaluated. Connection to Regional Sewer System: Discharge to a public sewer was ruled out because it is approximately 21,000 feet to the nearest location that a public sewer is available. Extensive design work would be required to develop a reliable cost estimate, but it can be assumed that the installed cost of a force main to transport the waste would be about $32 per foot. The cost for a sewer line to this location is estimated to be in excess of $600,000 and is prohibitively expensive. There is an on -site septic tank and drainage field for domestic sewage only. Land Application: Land application was evaluated. The soils on the site are typical of those found associated with Carolina Bays that have been drained and graded for agriculture. USDA mapping data indicates that these soils are hydric or partially hydric soils and may have a shallow depth to the seasonal water table. The soils may be suitable for land application of the utility blowdown if drainage is provided to lower the seasonal water table elevation. A more detailed on -site soil analysis will be required to determine if land application is possible, and if so, how the system must be designed and what, if any, additional drainage is needed. It is assumed that land application is possible, that no extensive drainage will be required, that storage equivalent to 30 days of flow will be required, and that an annual average loading rate of 0.5 inches per week can be achieved. Based on these assumptions, land application would require irrigation of an estimated 42 acres of land. The storage pond would need to hold approximately 2.5 million gallons. The cost for a land application system of similar size in North Carolina that was constructed within the last 18 months was $12,256 per acre, not including storage pond cost. It is anticipated that the cost of a land application system for the utility blowdown would be similar. That would make the estimated cost for the land application system $512,000. The cost of the storage pond is estimated to be $65,000, based on the cost to construct the existing stormwater detention pond. The total cost of this option is therefore estimated to be $577,000, which is also prohibitively expensive. Water Reuse: Inline filters will collect oil from the air compressor condensate, and the filtered condensate will flow back into the process for reuse. PART IV — EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1. The applicant is requesting issuance of a new general wastewater permit for boiler water blowdown and cooling tower water blowdown at a facility that is presently being constructed. 2. Based upon a site inspection that was conducted on October 1, 2009, all units were in process of construction, and the predicted start-up date for this facility is January 15, 2010. There is an on -site septic tank and drainage field for domestic sewage only. 3. Based upon the above information, this Office recommends issuance of the said permit located at the Clean Burn Fuels plant, southeast of the City of Raeford, in Hoke County. APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF COVERAGE GENERAL PERMIT NCG500000 BOILER AND COOLING TOWER BLOWDOWN PREPARED FOR: CLEAN BURN FUELS, LLC RAEFORD, NORTH CAROLINA PREPARED BY: RST ENGINEERING, PLLC RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA S September 2009 �ci�D y Introduction: Clean Burn Fuels is constructing a fuel grade ethanol production plant located at 269 Pate Road, Raeford, North Carolina 28376. When completed the plant will have cooling tower blowdown and boiler blowdown from the process utilities that will need to be discharged under the conditions of NPDES Permit NCG500000. This application will provide the required information for a Certificate of Coverage under that permit. Proposed Discharge Conditions: The cooling tower blowdown and boiler blowdown will be mixed together and the estimated 80,208 gallons per day of combined blowdown flow discharged to the existing stormwater retention pond. From the pond the discharge is to Little Marsh Swamp in the Lumber River Basin. There is no construction of wastewater treatment facilities proposed, but some treatment, through degradation of the biocides present, will be achieved in the stormwater retention pond. This pond is designed as a wet detention pond with an "empty" volume of 1.695 million gallons and will provide a nominal 21.1 days (506.4 hours) of detention time before the discharge reaches the concentration of the utility blowdowns. During periods of rainfall the detention time will be lower, but the rainfall run-off will provide additional dilution. For that reason, the "no rainfall" scenario should represent worst case concentrations of components in the blowdown stream in the receiving waters. Discharge Chemical Parameters: Chemicals added to the cooling tower and boilers for process control will be present in the blowdown. The chemicals will be used for pH control, corrosion control, and biological control in the boiler and cooling tower. The Nalco Company is providing the chemicals and will control their addition with a chemical process controller that receives feedback from the processes and adds only the amount of chemicals necessary to maintain proper operating conditions. The following table shows the chemicals to be used, their purpose, and the anticipated concentration of the chemical in the proposed discharge. Table 1 — Chemical use Total Disc Vol Product Disc.

The MSDS sheets, estimates of chemical useage, and estimates of the flows and chemical characteristics of the blowdown streams have been provided by the Nalco Company. The quantity of each chemical added and used in the calculation of in -stream concentration of each chemical was calculated ,41`, using the flows and concentrations provided by Nalco. There is particular concern about the in -stream impacts of the biocides used and about the salt content of the blowdown streams. The likely in - stream concentration of each of these constituents is evaluated below with the result that there is likely to be no serious impact on water quality from the blowdown stream. Salt Content: Treatment of the boiler feed water to remove hardness will necessitate the use of ion exchange resins that will be regenerated by backwashing with a salt solution. Data provided by Nalco, based on analysis of the boiler feed water source, indicates that a regeneration cycle will be once each 6.7 days of operation. The regeneration will require approximately 911 gallons of water and will use 225 pounds of salt. The regeneration backwash will be captured and bled into the total backwash stream over time to avoid the discharge of a concentrated salt solution to the basin receiving the blowdown flows. Dispersing 225 pounds of salt into the backwash flow that will occur in 6.7 days will result in a salt concentration of 50 mg/I. The water quality standards for the receiving water (Class Cswp) contain an action level for chlorides of 230 mg/I. This indicates minimal impact from salt on the receiving stream. Biocides: Three of the materials are listed as biocides. These are NALCO 7320, a broad-spectrum, non -oxidizing biocide approved for use in recirculating cooling towers, closed loop cooling systems, air washers and brewery pasteurizers; NALCO ACTI-BROM® 1318 biocide; and sodium hypochlorite (bleach). The active ingredient in NALCO 7320 is 2,2-Dibromo-3- Nitrilopropionamide. The half life of this material is highly pH dependent with the half life decreasing rapidly as pH increases. Data provided by Nalco was used to estimate a half life of 31 hours at the pH of 7.5 which is less than or equal to the pH of the combined blowdown stream. In order to assure that insignificant concentrations of this and other biocides carry through into the blowdown discharge, NALCO is proposing to feed sodium bisulfate into the cooling tower blowdown prior to mixing with the boiler blowdown as a part of the cooling tower water treatment package. This will effectively remove the active biocide. Sodium hypochlorite is a biocide in its own right, but in this application is used as an activator for the ACTI-BROM 1318. The registered active ingredient of ACTI-BROM 1318 is an aqueous solution containing sodium bromide. In its neat form, ACTI-BROM 1318 has no biocidal activity. However, when added to a chlorine source, the concentrated bromide salt solution is converted to hypobromous acid, a very efficient, fast -acting biocide. The hypochlorite is consumed in this reaction, so little (less than 1 mg/I) remains in solution. In order to assure that insignificant concentrations of this and other biocides carry through into the blowdown discharge, NALCO is proposing to feed sodium bisulfite into the cooling tower blowdown prior to mixing with the boiler blowdown. This will effectively remove the biocide before it discharges to the stormwater detention pond. Data provided by Nalco states that the half life of ACTI- BROM 1318 ranges from seconds to days, depending on conditions, with reducing conditions and the presence of organic matter resulting in the most rapid decay. The probability that any active biocide will be discharged to the surface waters is nil. In order to facilitate calculation of an in -stream concentration, the half life of NALCO 7320 at a pH of 7.5 was used. The concentrations used in the calculations are the anticipated concentrations in the combined blowdown stream as provided by Nalco. Discussion of half life and LC50 values: The LC50 values for the biocides used in the process are well documented. The half life of Nalco 7320 can be estimated with confidence from available data, and the half life of ACTI_BROM 1318 and sodium hypochlorite become moot because of the addition of sodium bisulfate to the cooling tower blowdown prior to discharge. The corrosion inhibiters, pH adjustment chemicals, and other water treatment chemicals present some problems. How each of these was handled in the biocide worksheet calculations is explained below. Nalco 3DT291 is an internal water treatment that does not contain hazardous materials according to the MDSD. The half life is not provided, but the material is readily biodegradable. For this reason, a half life of 5 days was assumed for the calculations. LC50 data is provided for the product and was used in the calculations. Nalco 3DT284 is a corrosion inhibitor containing phosphoric acid. No half life is given, but it is likely that, at the pH of the blowdown, the phosphoric acid will have reacted to form phosphate salts and that this will be the material in solution. For this reason a half life of 5 days was assumed. LC50 values are given for the product itself and these are used in the calculations. Nalco 73199 is a corrosion inhibitor containing sodium benzotriazole and sodium hydroxide. No half life is given but the material is inherently biodegradable, so a half life of 5 days is assumed. LC50 values are given for the product itself. The lowest value for a warm water fish was used in the calculations. It is worth note that the pH of the product, and thus the material tested, is greater than 11, which will result is fish toxicity. When mixed in the water treatment process, the toxicity will likely be lower. Nalco NexGuard 22310 is an internal boiler water treatment that lists no hazardous ingredients. No half life is given. The material is known to be slowly biodegradable, so a half life of 10 days was used. The LC50 value given for the most sensitive warm water fish, which was less than that for Daphnia magna, was used in the calculations. Nalco 1720 is an oxygen scavenger containing sodium and potassium bisulfite. No half life is given, but the material will react readily with oxidizing compounds or oxygen in solution or from the atmosphere. For this reason, a half life of 5 days was assumed. The LC50 for the fathead minnow was the lowest listed, and this is used in the calculations. Nalco 8735 is a mixture of sodium and potassium hydroxide and is use for pH control. No half life is given in the MSDS. The LC50 values given are for the product itself, but this is not the form in which it will be discharged. At the pH of the blowdown, 7.5 to 8.0, it will be in the form of Na and K salts, not the hydroxide. No LC50 values were discovered for the sodium and potassium salts, so no further calculations were done and no biocide worksheet is provided. ,••\ Biocide Worksheets: Biocide worksheets were prepared for each of the biocides used and are attached. Nalco provided estimated concentrations of each chemical in the blowdown water from the specific process, and this documentation is shown on the calculations under "Nalco Notes". The biocide worksheet asks for feed rates of the biocide, and these are not available. The feed rates will be variable and will be controlled by real time inputs to a PLC from each process. It is believed that the designed concentrations in the discharge as provided by Nalco are the most reliable data to use in estimating the quantity discharged. The mass discharge rate was calculated and included based on the given concentrations and flow data provided. Note that the biocide worksheet indicates that DWQ will provide the 7Q10 flow of the receiving stream. DWQ was contacted to get this information, but due to budget constraints, this information could not be provided, so a worst case estimate of 0 cfs was used in the calculations. Biocide worksheets are also included for the corrosion inhibitors and other inorganic chemicals that will be used. These chemicals will react within the process and will discharged in the form of dissolved salts. Nalco 8735 is a mixture of sodium and potassium hydroxide use for pH control. At the pH of the blowdown, 7.5 to 8.0, it will be in the form of Na and K salts, not the hydroxide. When the total mass loading of additives that is expected in the discharge is considered, the resulting solution would have a TDS of 106 mg/I. This is clearly well below any action levels in the receiving waters. Alternatives to Discharge to the Surface Waters: The alternatives of discharge to a public sewer system and land application rather than a surface water discharge were evaluated. Discharge to a public sewer was ruled out because it is approximately 21,000 feet to the nearest location that a public sewer is available. Extensive design work would be required to develop a reliable cost estimate, but it can be assumed that the installed cost of a force main to transport the waste would be about $32 per foot. The cost for a sewer line to this location is estimated to be in excess of $600,000 and is prohibitively expensive. Land application in lieu of discharge was also evaluated. The soils on the site are typical of those found associated with Carolina Bays that have been drained and graded for agriculture. Soils data from the USDA soil survey web site shows that the soils on the site are predominately made up of Coxville loam, Duplin sandy loam, Goldsboro sandy loam, Johnston loam, and Norfolk loamy sand. The USDA mapping data indicates that these soils are hydric or partially hydric soils and may have a shallow depth to the seasonal water table. The data also shows, however that the saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is moderate to high, so the soils may be suitable for land application of the utility blowdown if drainage is provided to lower the seasonal water table elevation. Portions of the site are already drained with a ditch system and are actively farmed, so they may be suitable as is. A more detailed on -site soil analysis will be required to determine if land application is possible, and if so, how the system must be designed and what, if any, additional drainage is needed. For the purposes of this analysis, however, it is assumed that land application is possible, that no extensive drainage will be required, that storage equivalent to 30 days of flow will be required, and that an annual average loading rate of 0.5 inches per week can be achieved. Based on these assumptions, land application would require irrigation of an estimated 42 acres of land. The storage pond would need to hold approximately 2.5 million gallons. The cost for a land application system of similar size in North Carolina that was constructed within the last 18 months was $12, 256 per acre, not including storage pond cost. It is anticipated that the cost of a land application system for the utility blowdown would be similar. That would make the estimated cost for the land application system $512,000. The cost of the storage pond is estimated to be $65,000, based on the cost to construct the existing stormwater detention pond. The total cost of this option is therefore estimated to be $577,000, which is also prohibitively expensive.
