Permit No. NC0021920
Whitemarsh WWTP
Columbus County
Dear Mr. Spivey:
In accordance with the application for discharge permit received on July 7, 1999, the Division
is forwarding herewith the subject NPDES 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 December 6,
1983.
This FINAL permit includes the following changes which were incorporated into the DRAFT
permit:
• Change in the effluent mercury limit from 0.020 ug/1 to 0.012 ug/1 (i.e., the state water
quality standard applied at end of outfall). However. please note that compliance will still
be based on a lab quantitation level of 0.2 ug/l. This facility discharges to White Marsh
Swamp, which is listed on the state 303(d) list as impaired due to a fish advisory for
mercury. Therefore, a mercury TMDL has been developed to reduce mercury loadings from
both point and nonpoint sources. The TMDL objective is to reduce fish tissue mercury
concentrations and eliminate the need for fish consumption advisories in this basin. As a
result of the mercury TMDL, a mercury daily maximum mass loading of 0.004 grams/day
has also been added to this FINAL permit. Procedures to calculate a daily maximum
loading are presented in Special Condition A (2). If mercury concentrations are reported as
<0.2 ug/1, the mass loading should be reported as < 0.004 g/d, and the facility will be
considered in compliance for the month. Due to the impaired use rating due to mercury,
the Division strongly recommends that you continue efforts to reduce mercury discharges
to your wastewater treatment system. As discussed by phone, tracking of mercury sludge
concentrations might be another means to determine whether additional source control
measures might be needed.
• Deletion of the effluent limit for lead based on statistical analysis of existing effluent data.
• Addition of 2/Month monitoring frequency for copper, silver, and zinc, based on statistical
analysis of existing effluent data.
• Change the permit expiration date to 8/31/2004.
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, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-
7447. Unless such a demand is made, this permit shall be final and binding.
Please take notice that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division of
Water Quality. Part II, E.4. addresses the requirements to be followed in case of change in
ownership or control of this discharge. The Division of Water Quality may require modification
or revocation and reissuance of the permit.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Water Quality, the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area
Management Act, or any other federal or local governmental permit.

Permit No. NC0021920
SUPPLEMENT TO EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS
AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
A (2). TOTAL MERCURY MASS LOADING CALCULATION
The daily maximum mass loading limit for mercury is 0.004 grams/day, which is based on a mercury
wasteload allocation derived from the Lumber River Basin Mercury TMDL. Both the effluent mercury
concentration and mass loading should be reported on the monthly discharge monitoring reports
(DMRs). Calculation of the mass daily loading is as follows:
Effluent Concentration (ug/l) x Daily Flow (MGD) x 3.785 (conversion factor) = grams mercury/day
Note: If the mercury effluent concentration is reported by the lab as <0.2 ug/l, report <0.2 ug/1 as
the concentration, and report <0.004 g/d as the mass mercury loading.
A (3). CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant
mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 50%.
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 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.
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 Branch
North Carolina Division of
Water Quality
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621

Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed 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.

Proiect Notes
Overview
• This is a permit renewal for a 3.0 MGD Major Municipal POTW, with 90% domestic and 10%
industrial.
• Facility discharges to swamp water (White Marsh Swamp), which is 303(d) listed due to a fish
advisory for mercury. A mercury TMDL is currently being developed to reduce mercury loadings
from point and nonpoint sources.
• Files indicate that facility is extremely well operated and historically has been in compliance with all
limits except mercury. Permittee was under amended SOC (EMC WQ 96-11 Adll) to reduce
mercury in effluent to permit limits of 0.02 ug/1 by 8/31/99. Until this final compliance date, an
interim SOC mercury limit of 2 ug/1 had been in effect. The city began noticing problems with
effluent mercury levels in 1994. Studies identified two dental offices as primary sources, which have
now installed treatment equipment. Additional sources include residual from the collection system
and WWTP. Per WiRO, the City has been very cooperative and exhausted much resources to resolve
the mercury problem.
• Receiving swamp waters are low in dissolved oxygen (generally <2 mg/1) during summer months.
Permit Changes/Limits Review
• This permit will change the effluent mercury limit from 0.02 ug/1 to 0.012 ug/1 (WQS applied at end
of pipe, no dilution allowed) due to TMDL. However, compliance will still be based on QLL of 0.02
ug/l.
• Delete effluent limit for lead based on RPA using 99/98 DMR data.
• Add 2/Month effluent monitoring for metals with Action Levels (copper, silver, zinc) based on RPA
using 99/98 LTMP data. Limits are not assigned to Action Level metals unless tox test failures
implicate these specific metals as the cause.
• Maintain O&G limit, which was originally installed due to hospital discharge.
DMR Data
• Chronic tox test results indicate perfect toxicity compliance (19/19 "Pass" results) between 1995-
1999.
• Over past year (10/99-11/98) facility was generally in compliance. Violations included 2 weekly
avg. violations for fecal (hurricane -related); and 1 daily max for mercury (0.7 ug/1).
• Ranges in monthly average effluent concentrations over the past year included: flow (0.9-2.4 MGD);
BOD (<2-5 mg/1); NH3 (<1); TSS (1-7 mg/1); Fecal (1-25 org/100m1); O&G (2-11 mg/1). Ranges in
Daily Max effluent concentrations included: TRC (all <20 ug/1); TN (4-17 mg/1); TP (0.4-2 mg/1); Pb
(all <5 ug/1); Hg (all <0.2, except for a 0.7 ug/1).
• Instream data for summer 1999 shows that dissolved oxygen levels were low at both upstream and
downstream stations. DO concentrations were generally <2 mg/1 in the swamp waters; on some
occasions the effluent decreased downstream DO levels by 1-3 mg/1. Some occasional increases in
downstream fecal levels above the WQS. Conclusion: retain instream monitoring
Pretreatment Data
• LTMP frequency is quarterly. Used 99/98 or 99/98/97 data for RPA.
WLA Data
• The last WLA was conducted in 1994. BOD/NH3 limits already at 5/2 mg/1 (summer).
Wilmington Region
• Region conducted a Pretreatment Compliance Inspection (PCI) in June 1999 and listed 3 SIUs. PCI
reported that effluent mercury is still present, but detection frequency has decreased.
• Region conducted a Compliance Inspection Evaluation (CEI) in December 1998. Facility in
compliance with permit limits with exception of mercury. Facility operated and maintained
satisfactorily.

COMMENTS:
Rick- I'm faxing a revised Fact Sheet and Effluent Sheet for the
subject Draft permit. Revisions include 1) deletion of proposed
cyanide limit; and 2) addition of effluent monitoring requirement
at 2/Month for copper, silver, zinc. Revisions are based on
additional evaluation of RPA results and policies. Still hoping to
notice permit by 1/12/2000 (which means I need Region feedback
by then). Please call with any comments. Thanks.

RE: NPDES Draft Permit

Dear Mr. Belnick:
317 S. Madison Street
P.O. Box 607
Whiteville, North Carolina 28472
Phone: [phone]
Fax: [phone]
Thank you for sending a draft copy of our NPDES Permit for the Whiteville Wastewater
Treatment Plant. Upon reviewing the effluent limitations and monitoring requirements, we
recognize that the City, under the draft permit, has a daily maximum for mercury of 0.012 ug/1.
This is a reduction from the previous NPDES permit. As you may or may not be aware, the City
has worked very hard to meet a SOC requirement for mercury in our sewer effluent. As of
December 1999, we had met the requirements of the SOC.
Note number 5 indicates that the lab quantitation level for mercury is 0.2 ug/l. Any
measured levels of mercury below 0.2 ug/1 are reported as 0 for compliance purposes. The City
of Whiteville's question is, will the lab quantitation level for mercury of 0.2 ug/1 remain in effect in
Whiteville's NPDES permit thru August 31, 2004, or will the lab quantitation level be lowered to
the daily maximum at some point in the future?
Thank you for your attention to this matter and a reply to this request in writing would be
most appreciated.
Sincerely,
Hazen Blodgett

Hazen- I'm faxing the page on mercury in sludge. This page
indicates that sludge concentrations above 3 mg/kg (ppm) dry
weight indicate there are significant sources of mercury that can be
reduced. The last sludge data I looked at for Whiteville is listed
below:
5/10/96 1.63 ppm
8/22/96 4.3 ppm
12/6/96 3.58 ppm
4/11/97 2.98 ppm
10/1/97 2.46 ppm

VIIastewater treatment plants have an important role to
play in reducing mercury and other toxic discharges
to receiving waters. Like industry, wastewater treat-
ment plants are required to meet specific discharge limits
contained in their permits. They are unique in that all of the
discharges from the plant, except for chemicals used in the
treatment process, come from users of the system. The
wastewater treatment plant manufactures no product; its
primary goal is to provide clean water and a healthy
environment.
Mercury reaches the wastewater treatment plant from users
of the system. Most of it concentrates in wastewater sludge,
which is land applied or burned. The remainder is discharged
in the effluent. Mercury concentrations for sludge may range
from 1-2 parts per million (ppm) on a dry weight basis to as
high as 15 ppm. Generally, sludge mercury concentrations
above 3 ppm indicate there are significant sources of mercury
that can be reduced through pollution prevention.
Your treatment plant may not currently have problems meet-
ing effluent limitations for mercury. However, more stringent
discharge limitations are expected as the Great Lakes states
incorporate the provisions of the Great Lakes Water Quality
Guidance. That guidance seeks to establish consistent water
quality standards throughout the Great Lakes Basin. It will
require states to establish water quality criteria for mercury
and other bioaccumulative pollutants based on bioaccumula-
tive effects in fish and wildlife. Prohibitions on mixing zones

(i.e. Hospitals, Dentists, Universities)
for these pollutants will also be required. Some states, like
Michigan, already require treatment plants with stringent
water quality -based effluent limitations for mercury to
develop and implement mercury minimization plans.
Concerns about mercury in the environment are not limited
to the Great Lakes region. In other parts of the United States,
such as the Pacific Northwest and Florida, states are taking
similar steps to address mercury concerns in fish and wildlife.
Mercury reduction programs will continue to grow in impor-
tance as the federal government implements air emission
requirements for sludge incinerators, solid waste incinerators
and other incinerators.
Wastewater treatment plant staff are in a unique position to
work with their users to identify sources of mercury and
reduce or eliminate its discharge. Often the best local source
of expertise on water quality issues, treatment plant staff can
play an important leadership role in addressing mercury
pollution prevention.

The City of Whiteville WWTP is a well run facility, which has had no major effluent
violations in the past twelve month period with the exception of one monthly BOD and one
Mercury excursion. The City of Whiteville was recently under SOC EMC WQ 96-11 AdII to
eliminate Mercury from their system. Upon review of DMR data the only problem with Mercury
was one daily violation in February (0.7 ug). The SOC was allowed to expire November 30,
1999.
It is recommend that a draft permit be prepared and placed at public notice. If no
significant adverse public reaction is received, it is recommended NPDES Permit No.
NC0021920 be reissued to the City of Whiteville in accordance with the Lumber River basin -
wide permitting strategy.

.Approach
(a) Water body was added to the 303(d) list due to fish consumption advisories issued after the last basin plan and associated use support rating. Thus, the rating appears as "S" or "ST".
Other data have not been reviewed for these waters since the last basin plan.
Definitions for approach:
TMDL - Proper technical conditions exist to develop a TMDL for this water body/pollutant. Usual approach for nutrients, DO, and all metals.
MS - A management strategy will be developed for this water body/pollutant. Usual approach for sediment, fecal, pH, and turbidity.
RES-Resample. Water body remains on the 303(d) list even though data are more than five years old. Waters will be resampled to obtain updated use support information.
PPI - Problem Parameter Identification. Biologically impaired waters will be resampled for biological and chemical data to attempt to determine potential problem parameters.
SWMP - Swamp Waters. Swamp waters previously evaluated using freshwater criteria will continue to be monitored and will be re-evaluated when swamp criteria are available.

Sludge Handling
In preparation to waste sludge, the sludge blanket is allowed to build up over night in the
clarifiers and the next morning the sludge is wasted to the sludge holding tanks. Sludge is wasted
one or two times per week depending of MLSS concentration in the treatment basin. When the
sludge holding tanks are filled and the solids have settled the supernate can be drained off and
returned to the head of the plant by means of a decant valve in each tank. This way the sludge
can be thickened several times as it is held in the storage tanks for sixty to ninety days before
being hauled out for land application. The sludge is tested and applied as required by land
Application permit number WQ0000048.
