Part III
F) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic
Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant
mortality is 26% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit
holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit
condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit
during the months of February, May, August, and November. 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, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Permit No.NC0040797
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
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 any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly
monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, 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 Environmental Management 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will
require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test
results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Facility Name HickoryHenry Fork WWTP Permit # NC0040797 _ Pipe # 001
CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
is 26 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall
perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first
test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of
FEB MAY AUG NOV .. 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, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
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 any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will
begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, 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
Environmental Management 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

COLOR REOPENER AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
This permit will be revoked and reissued to incorporate color limitations and/or revised
monitoring requirements in the event color testing or other studies conducted by the
permittee or the Division indicate that color has rendered or could render the receiving
waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation, aquatic life and wildlife or
adversely affect the palatability of fish, aesthetic quality or impair the water for any
designated use.
Color monitoring should consist of ADMI monitoring as specified below. All samples
taken should have complete descriptive recordings of the color in the sample container
including hue (distinctive characteristics and tint), clarity (clearness of the color sample)
and luminance (brightness or glowing quality) of the sample as it looks in the collection
container. Descriptions of stream color should also be recorded when color samples are
collected.
Color samples should be analyzed as follows:
a) at natural pH
b) free from turbidity (True Color); and
c) Samples shall be analyzed in accordance with the provisions of Method 2120 E.4. as
described in the 18th Edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and
Wastewater. Using a narrow -band scanning spectrophotometer to produce a COMPLETE
spectral curve of the visible spectrum (350-75- nm), calculate and report results in ADMI
values for true color values at the sample's ambient pH value. All color data including
visual observations should be submitted with the monthly DMRs.
Color Monitoring Location and Frequencies:
Color Monitoring shall take place instream above the effluent outfall, downstream below
the effluent outfall and in the effluent.
Frequency shall be 3 consecutive days (preferably Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday)
once per month.

Facility Name Hickory -Henry Fork WWTP Permit # NC0040797 _ Pipe # 001 _
CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
is 34 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall
perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first
test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of
FEB MAY AUG NOV .. 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, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemicalfphysical measurements performed in
association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dosefresponse 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 any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will
begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, 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
Environmental Management 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

COLOR REOPENER AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
This permit will be revoked and reissued to incorporate color limitations and/or revised
monitoring requirements in the event color testing or other studies conducted by the
permittee or the Division indicate that color has rendered or could render the receiving
waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation, aquatic life and wildlife or
adversely affect the palatability of fish, aesthetic quality or impair the water for any
designated use.
Color monitoring should consist of ADMI monitoring as specified below. All samples
taken should have complete descriptive recordings of the color in the sample container
including hue (distinctive characteristics and tint), clarity (clearness of the color sample)
and luminance (brightness or glowing quality) of the sample as it looks in the collection
container. Descriptions of stream color should also be recorded when color samples are
collected.
Color samples should be analyzed as follows:
a) at natural pH
b) free from turbidity (True Color); and
c) Samples shall be analyzed in accordance with the provisions of Method 2120 E.4. as
described in the 18th Edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and
Wastewater. Using a narrow -band scanning spectrophotometer to produce a COMPLETE
spectral curve of the visible spectrum (350-75- nm), calculate and report results in ADMI
values for true color values at the sample's ambient pH value. All color data including
visual observations should be submitted with the monthly DMRs.
Color Monitoring Location and Frequencies:
Color Monitoring shall take place instream above the effluent outfall, downstream below
the effluent outfall and in the effluent.
Frequency shall be 3 consecutive days (preferably Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday)
once per month.

HICKORY - HENRY FORK WWTP JMN
HENRY FORK C 2/15/95
030835
Facility is requesting renewal of existing NPDES permit. Hickory currently has design
flow of 6 MGD but is expanding to 9.0 MGD. Permit modification for limits @ 9 mgd
was done in 1993. At that time, a model was run for the expanded flow that determined
limits for BOD5 and NH3. The Henry Fork Plant is under an SOC from June 1994 until
June 1996, during this time they will do a full range chronic toxicity test. Facility last
reported a tox test with a FAIL in Jan 1994.
With this review, new toxicity analysis was done for metals and other toxicants. Attached
sheets show that limits for most parameters will be renewed with new recommendations for
deletion of limits for nickel and endrin (an insecticide), and the addition of monitoring for
silver. It was also decided to renew the limit for Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, tox analysis
has the predicd concentration higher than the allowable. Current information indicates that
this substance comes from new sampling bottles. However since it is listed as a
carcinogenic, current procedures dictates that the parmater be limited.
