WQ0005387. This permit will be effective through November 30, 1996. The Town of Oakboro currently removes liquid waste sludge from a 250,000 gallon aeration basin and applies the sludge to a 34 acre site that is specified in the permit. The basin stabilizes the sludge through aerobic digestion, such that the sludge can be used under North Carolina guidelines for land application. The estimated volume of sludge to be land applied is 9.76 dry tons per year. The site approved for land application contains 34 aces, excluding buffer areas. The permit has been in place since December 13, 1991. If the Town of Oakboro proceeds with a treatment plant expansion, they will also evaluate the need for additional land application areas. There is some existing land at the permitted site which is not being used for land application which could be used for an expansion of the land application program. If additional sites are required, or if other sludge management practices will need to be considered, these alternatives can be evaluated during the design process. Since the design for the plant expansion will be based on speculative limits, and since the plant design will also affect the amount of sludge produced at the plant, no reliable estimates of sludge production from the new plant can be made at this time.

They may be using Rocky River outfall in the future and would like to receive limits for both locations. Speculative effluent limits were requested for an expansion to 0.90 mgd; however, facility has no immediate plans to expand. Facility is presently discharging approx. 72% of their design capacity. DMR review showed facility to be operating sufficiently. Instream DO values are mostly above the standard with a few substandard values in the summer of '93.

Facility Name (owl n of Oa kbwo w W p Permit # NCOO 435 32, Pipe # b01 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 / % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterry 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 JAN, $ P R , 3 U L 1 OCT . 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. 7Q10 2 '7 cfs Permitted Flow 4.5 MGD IWC !' Basin & Sub -basin Dad 7/3 Receiving Stream .

We will need to give the same tox test to both facilities since we are giving the same metals limits. Please make note of these two facilities in your Yadkin Basin files and be sure to note on the Carolina Solite WLA that the toxicity test whoudl be changed. From: Ruth Swanek on Tue, Sep 13, 1994 8:10 AM Subject: RE: Toxicity To: Carla Sanderson Giving the same tox limit to both makes sense to me. I talked to Phil Bethea at lab, and he agreed. He said he would also tell Matt, and if Matt saw a problem he would call us. So, I guess we should change the WET limits too. (I will do that for Cogentrix and Rocky Mount if I ever get the WLA). From: Carla Sanderson on Tue, Sep 13, 1994 7:58 AM Subject: Toxicity To: Ruth Swanek I am reviewing a WLA for Oakboro relocation into the Rocky River right next to Carolina Solite. Michelle considered interation for metals but did not for Toxicity Test. Shoudn't we give total wasteflow IWC and subsequently the same tox test for both facilities? One issue here is that Carolina Solite does not discharge much at all anymore. The permit is only for emergencies which have not happened in the last 2-3 years.

Pipe # A / 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 30 % (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 . 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. 7Q10 I cfs Permitted Flow MGD Recommended by: IWC ap Basin & Sub -basin Ylcl 63�17 � Z Receiving Stream e_e � Ci-ee County Sly F, Date 9 QCL PIF Version 9/91 NPDES WASTE LOAD ALLOCATION PERMIT NO.: NC0043532 PERMITTEE NAME: FACILITY NAME: Town of Oakboro Oakboro Wastewater Treatment Plant Facility Status: Existing Permit Status: Renewal Major Minor Pipe No.: 002 Design Capacity: 0.50 MGD Domestic (% of Flow): 30 % Industrial (% of Flow): 70 % Comments: Town is still using Long Creek Outfall(001).

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% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform a 1° 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 3AN, APR, LI Ocr . 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. 7Q10 S cfs Permitted Flow 0. 5 MGD - IWC ; 11► %a L°fa Basin & Sub -basin 03o7 /3 Receiving Stream Rock River County Sian I J QCL PIF Version 9/91 Recommended by: Date 9/11/94 vif‘ TOXICANT ANALYSIS Facility Name Town of Oakboro WWTP NPDES # NC0043532 Ow (MGD) 1.364 7010s (cfs) _.,_.._.._.._.._.._.._. 29 _.._.._.._..-6.79 /WC (%) Reeving Stream Rocky River Stream Class C FINAL RESULTS Lead Max.
