Box 10 Wilson, North Carolina 27894-0010 Subject: NPDES Final Permit Wilson - Hominy Creek WWMF Permit No. NC0023906 Wilson County Dear Mr. Brice: In accordance with the application for discharge permit, the Division is forwarding herewith the subject NPDES permit for the City of Wilson, Hominy Creek Wastewater Management Facility (WWMF), NPDES No. NC0023906. 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. The Division of Water Quality (the Division) received your comments, dated August 27, 2003, on the draft permit. Based on these comments, the following changes have been made from the draft permit: • The typographical errors have been corrected (Items 1., 2., and 4. of your letter). • The Division recently changed some items in the boiler plate (standard) language of individual NPDES permits. This included the postmark date of the DMRs (modified from the 30th day following the reporting period to the 28th day of the reporting period). This was modified because February, excluding leap years, only has 28 days. • Some minor changes have been made to the permit based on EPA Region IV comments (specifying "total" metals and "total suspended solids") . • As explained in Item 3 of your comment letter, the Division is aware of some of the delays with final approval of the BNR addition. Based on your comments, the Division has agreed to allow the City of Wilson until November 1, 2004 to meet the more stringent ammonia requirements. The Division is limited in how much time may be offered to comply with this requirement, since a schedule of compliance was placed in the previous permit. Other than those changes listed above, no major changes have been made to this final permit from the draft permit dated July 30, 2003. 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, Mail Service Center 6714, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714. 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. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit.

Total Nitrogen (TN) allocations and TN Load limits for NPDES dischargers in the Neuse River basin are annual limits and are applied for .the calendar year. b. For any given calendar year, the Permittee shall be in compliance with the annual TN Load limit in. this Permit if: i. the Permittee's annual TN Load is less than or equal to said limit, or ii. the Permittee is a Co-Permittee Member of a compliance association. c. The TN Load limit in this Permit (if any) may be modified as the result of allowable changes in the Permittee's TN allocation. i. Allowable changes . include those resulting from purchase of TN allocation from the Wetlands Restoration Fund; purchase, sale, trade, or lease of allocation between the Permittee and other dischargers; regionalization; and other transactions approved by the Division. ii. The Permittee may request a modification of the TN Load limit in this Permit to reflect allowable changes in its TN allocation. Upon receipt of timely and proper application, the Division will modify the permit as appropriate and in accordance with state and federal program requirements. iii. Changes in TN limits become effective on January 1 of the year following permit modification. The Division must receive application no later than August 31 for changes proposed for the following calendar year. iv.

The TN monitoring and reporting requirements in this Permit remain in effect until expiration of this Permit and are not affected by the Permittee's membership in a compliance association. A. (4.) 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 90 %. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, puarterly 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 February, May, August, and November. 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: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 City of 1VVilk0n ll irninv Creek wWNlF NPDES No. NC'OC)2390 i A.

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. A. (5.) Effective Date for More Stringent NH3-N Limits The limits of 2 mg/1 (April 1- October 31) and 4 mg/1 (November 1 through March 31) shall be in effect until November 1, 2004, at which time new limits of 1 mg/1 and 2 mg/1 shall become effective.

The City submits the following comments for your consideration. 1. The first page, last sentence. The last sentence indicates the expiration date of the permit as May 31, 2008. After this sentence the date September 28, 2001 is listed. This appears to be a typing error. 2. The third page, map and facility location has the number NC0030716. This appears to be a NPDES nurnher but is not the City's NPDES nurnher. 3. The fourth page, A. (1.) Effluent Characteristics and page 5 A. (1.) 3 indicates the beginning of the more stringent NH3-N limit (July 1, 2004) that the City agreed to. There have been delays in getting the plans and specifications approved for the solids handling facilities project, which includes the addition of a BNR tank for NH3-N removal efficiency. These delays are beyond the City's control. The Hominy Creek WWMF 201 Amendment was submitted in September 2002. The Amendment was submitted demonstrating the need for a future flow expansion within the 20 year planning period. This decision by the City and Hazen and Sawyer to include future flow expansion was based on advice from DWQ staff. We received technical comments on the 201 Amendment on February 26, 2003. Environmental comments were received on April 11, ) 2003. The majority of the environmental comments were based on DWQ's desire not to approve a document discussing future flow expansion. We agreed to modify the P.O. BOX 10 • WILSON.

The FONSI was issued August 13, 2003. The design plans were ready for regulatory review in December 2002, but we were told not to submit the plans until the FONSI had been completed. Due to the significant delay in the process, we requested a parallel plan review with completion of DWQ's review of the 201 Amendment and submitted the plans on April 11, 2003. Review comments from Construction Grants and Loan have not been received. Based on these significant delays, the City of Wilson request an extension of six (6) months to the effective date of the more stringent NH3-N limit. The effective date would become January 1, 2005. This request is based on being able to advertise the project by the end of this year. 4. The fifth page, A. (1.) 8. indicates two outfalls 001 and 002. The City has only 1 outfall 001. 5. Part II, Section D. 2, page 8 of 16. This provision indicates that the DMR be postmarked no later than the 28th day of the following completed reporting period. The previous permits required that the DMR be postmarked no later than the 30t day of the following reporting period. Your consideration of these comments and the request to extend the effective date of the NH3-N limit to January 1, 2005 are appreciated.

If there are significant changes, other than this (which you stated in your e-mail that there was only this issue and typos), please send me a proposed final permit. Or, if this is the only change, could you forward me an electronic copy of the changes that you make and I will review quickly and send you an e-mail stating that I had reviewed and aril : okay with changes. Thanks and call me if you. have any. questions (404) 562-9305.

They have had to go through our State Loan program and there have been some delays with getting their funding for improvements. With their comments on their draft permit - they requested that they have until January 1, 2005 to meet the NH3 limits. We plan to give them some time - but only until November 1, 2004 (this will mean they will have had a schedule of 3 years to comply with the NH3 limit - the previous permit was effective Nov. 1, 2001) . This will be the only significant change from their draft permit (other than several typographical errors). Let me know if you have comments. Susan A. Wilson, P.E.

Most are considered "minor" comments, but please respond to me by September 9th so we can resolve any issues prior to the 30-day review deadline of September 12, 2003. Thanks, Madolyn Dominy 1) The term "total suspended residue" should be changed to total suspended solids in effluent limitations pages and footnotes. O (c_ 2) All metals, such as copper and zinc, should be expressed as "total" Q(L or "total recoverable" on effluent limitations pages. 3) Detection limits for various organic pollutants in the expanded effluent data section of the permit application are too high and not sensitive enough. Methods 624/625 are expected to achieve much lower detection limits. I have expressed this same comment to Mark McIntire and Dave Goodrich as a significant concern of EPA Region 4.

The changes to the current draft permit are detailed in the cover letter. The RRO supports the changes. It is noted that the Residual Chlorine limit is specified as 18 ug/l. It is my understanding that Residual Chlorine limits in NPDES permits would either be 17 ug/1 or 28 ug/l. The RRO does not have a concern if this is the actual limit.

Wilson ` ' Subbasin: 030407 Date: July 25, 2003 Drainage Area (mi2): 240 0 Summer 7Q10 (cfs) 1.3 (regulated, conservative est.) Winter 7Q10 (cfs): T'4jamWgri14 Average Flow (cfs): IWC (%): 94.4 Primary SIC Code: 4952 SUMMARY Wilson operates a 14 MGD wastewater treatment facility that discharges into Contentnea Creek which is a tributary to the Neuse River. The City has modified the plant to achieve biological nutrient removal (esp. for total nitrogen) which brought the ultimate plant capacity to 14 MGD. The City is also in the process of completing a 201 plan for plant improvements to meet the more stringent NH3-N limits which will be implemented July 2004. Contentnea Creek is now listed as supporting near this area of the discharge. However, instream data indicate depressed D.O.'s below the discharge (and this section is not considered impaired, but is listed on 303(d) due to low D.O.$). Contentnea Creek is a tributary to the Neuse River. According to the Basinwide Water Quality Management Plan for the Neuse, the primary water quality considerations for point sources in the basin are discharges of (1) oxygen -demanding substances and (2) nutrients. As stated in the previous fact sheet (dated May 4, 2000), due to the swamp -like nature of Contentnea Creek, a steady state one dimensional model could not be used. The BODS limits for 14 MGD are based on BPJ (tertiary treatment.levels). The Wilson - Hominy Creek plant is designed for tertiary treatment and biological nutrient removal. Point source rules regarding control of TN and TP have been passed by the EMC. To address the nutrient reduction issue, the City is a participant in the Neuse River Compliance Association (this will allow the facility to comply with the nitrogen limit through the Association). Wilson/ Hominy Crcek WWMF NPDES Renewal Page 1 The Wilson - Hominy Creek WWMF has a full pretreatment program through the Division of Water Quality's Pretreatment Unit. This program will continue to be implemented in accordance with the permit. The City also is reusing a portion of its wastewater (as per WQ0020915). TOXICITY TESTING: Current Requirement: Chronic P/F @ 90% (also recommended with renewal) Wilson has had "passes" in 2002 and 2003. (The facility had a failure November and December 2001, but passes since that time. Wilson attributed this to a type of polymer they were trying at the time.) Due to the consecutive passes for the past year, they are not subject to the Action Level policy. COMPLIANCE SUMMARY: BASED ON THE PREVIOUS 2 YEARS The City adjudicated the previous permit over the more stringent NH3-N limit (1 mg/1 (sum)). The adjudicatory settlement allowed Wilson a compliance schedule for the more stringent NH3- N limit. The City has until July 2004 to comply with the limit. The City has had some flow violations during the first quarter of this year (NC has had high rainfall events all winter) - not high enough to trigger a civil penalty. Average flow for 2002 = 9.73 MGD (drought year); January 2003 - May 2003 = 13.52 MGD (high rainfall). Per computer print-out, the facility appears to be in compliance with other limits. Compliance Evaluation Inspection and staff report indicate that the facility is well maintained and operated. INSTREAM MONITORING: Wilson is part of the Lower Neuse Basin Association (LNBA) and is not required to perform the instream monitoring listed in this permit. The LNBA monitors upstream and downstream sites on Contentnea Creek [J6764000, upstream at Hwy. 301; J6890000, downstream at NCSR 1622; J7210000, downstream at Hwy. 58). Depressed DOs have occurred at the downstream sites, with a trend indicating a definite impact from the upstream to the downstream sites. This creek is likely affected due to both point and nonpoint source impacts; additionally, this is classified as "swamp", in which DOs may be naturally depressed on occasion. A new federal program, the Unified Watershed Assessment, will provide funds to study Contentnea Creek and possibly determine causative factors. TOXICANT PARAMETERS A reasonable potential analysis (RPA) was conducted for all toxicants currently monitored [Ag, Cd, Cu, Zn, Cr, Hg - through the permit; Ni, As, Se, Mo, Chlorides, Al, CN, Pb - through the LTMP). The data evaluated was reported between from June 2001 - May 2003. Where data were available, both the chronic and acute (1/2 FAV) were evaluated for reasonable potential. All concentrations expressed in ug/1 (or ppb) Reasonable Potential? Limit? Current Permit Limit? 14 MGD Renewal Acute Chronic Acute Chronic Standard Cadmium Mon (Monthly) No Chromium Limit 54 ug/1 (daily max) No Cyanide No reqmnt No Lead No reqmnt No Nickel No Reqmt.

Monitoring will be continued t a frequency of monthly. Other parameters did not show RP (and Cr, Pb, Hg, Al, Ag, As, Se, Mo all had values below detection for the 2 year period) . PROPOSED CHANGES: Nutrients Wilson is a member of the Neuse nutrient compliance group. As a member of the compliance association, the annual load limit for total nitrogen will not have to be met. The individual TN load for Wilson - Hominy Creek is 157,684 lbs/year. The total phosphorus limit of 2 mg/1 was instituted in the previous permit (and since Wilson is a member of the Compliance Association, the 2 mg/1 TP limit is applied again in this permit). Metals: Copper and Zinc did demonstrate a reasonable potential to exceed the acute criteria. However, these are both Action Level parameters and should be reviewed in conjunction with toxicity testing. Monthly monitoring of these parameters will continue. [See above for more detailed explanation - as well as RP analysis]. Other metals demonstrated no RP. Data resulting from the LTMP showed values less than detect for most parameters except molybdenum and chlorides. Chlorides are a concern in water supply - and this is not a water supply classified water body (molybdenum is monitored through the LTMP - there is no WQ standard for it). No changes are proposed in the permit based on LTMP data. Other Parameters Other than conventional parameters, the parameters sampled in the application had above detection levels for copper, zinc, chloromethane. No changes are proposed based on information in the permit application (the volatile compound was in amounts below WQ standards). Based on the NH3-N policy adopted October 15, 2003, weekly average NH3-N limits have been inserted for the existing flow. An annual priority pollutant scan has also been inserted in the permit to ensure that the permittee complies with the requirement in the municipal permit applications. The fecal coliform special condition is being continued with this renewal (based on the modifications for the 14 MGD, the chlorine contact basin is not going to be enlarged, so the NPDES Unit has the same concerns regarding the contact time).

The application notes that in addition to standard domestic strength waste discharged to the facility, parameters including metals, laundry waste, pharmaceuticals, commercial lab waste, and hospital waste are discharged to the facility. The parameters and limits in the current permit appear to be satisfactory for this facility. The facility is well operated and maintained, and compliant with permit limits. On another note, Wilson has talked with the Towns of Elm City and Bailey regarding possible connection. Both of these towns have chronic compliance problems at their spray irrigation plants. The RRO recommends that the permit be reissued in accordance with the basinwide permitting strategy.

The downstream samples have improved from Fair to Good Fair between 1995 and 2000. The site immediately downstream of the discharge was Fair in 2000 but was good -fair in a 2001 resample. There are still problems and the slight increases are likely due to a lack of runoff because of the drought. The low DO site was just below buckhorn dam and nobody seemed have any ideas on that one. The LNBA sites in the watershed did not register DOs that were too low. There are no stoneflies in Contentnea--indicating problems. Bottom line is -- it is barely supporting.

This facility had no further WET violations after being kicked into the process. Indications are that a polymer was the source of their toxicity, but they did not definitively rule out copper and zinc. Therefore, we don't recommend adding limits for Cu and Zn, but the facility is still subject to the process if they have WET failures in the future and still have RP to exceed the action level standards instream. Call me if you have questions. Matt Susan A Wilson wrote: Matt - do you know what the status is with this one?

Wilson, Environmental Engineer NPDES Unit Subject: City of Wilson - 201 Facilities Plan (September, 2002) NPDES No. NC0023906 Wilson County I have briefly reviewed the 201 Plan submitted by Hazen & Sawyer on behalf of the City of Wilson [September 2002, Revised May 20031. It appears that the facility will not be expanding beyond 14 MGD (20 year projected flow) and this document reflects only conditions for 14 MGD. The City is currently permitted for 14 MGD, so the NPDES Unit has no further comments on this portion of the 201. The NPDES Unit still raises the concern regarding hydraulic retention time for chlorine contact. Although the contact time is estimated as 45 minutes - it appears that the "contact tanks" are used for chlorination, dechlorination, and post aeration. Once again, we encourage the City to implement additional true chlorine contact time. Likely, if this is not done, the language in Condition A. (6.) of the NPDES permit will be continued with the next permit renewal (and future permit cycles). cc: Ken Schuster, RRO/WQ Central Files NPDES Unit DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY November 19, 2002 To: Steve Zoufaly/ J.

As stated in the document, the City of Wilson is required to meet more stringent ammonia limits by July 1, 2004,.as agreed through the adjudicatory settlement and subsequent permit issuance dated September 28, 2001. The document primarily addresses how the City of Wilson will comply with the more stringent ammonia limits at the current flow of 14 MGD. The NPDES Unit ,agrees that upgrades to theplant are necessary to comply with the more stringent limits. In review of the improvements for 14 MGD, the NPDES Unit also recommends that the chlorine contact time be evaluated again to determine if adequate time is provided to consistently meet the fecal coliform limit. This was a concern during the previous review of the expansion; to.14:MGD and is the reason Condition A:(6.) was implemente6. in the permit. The NPDES Unit has not received a request from the City of Wilson for. speculative limits for a flow of 18 MGD: An increase of permitted flow.from 14 MGD to 18 MGD could have a major impacton the dissolved oxygen of Contentnea Creek. Due to the swamp -like nature of Contentnea Creek, providing speculative limits will be difficult and could be time -consumptive. Review of dissolved oxygen data during the last permit renewal indicated that downstream dissolved oxygen levels were depressed, which may also have an effect on the speculative limits. Additionally, Contentnea Creek, below the Wilson water supply intake, is listed as biologically impaired (with impairment historically listed as attributable to sediment). Alternative analyses will have to be thoroughly documented prior to or upon any NPDES application for expansion above 14 MGD. The NPDES Unit recommends that Wilson thoroughly evaluate alternatives and re -use options prior to expansion of the treatment plant. The NPDES Unit's Engineering Alternatives Analysis Guidance document is available on the Division's website: [http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/ documents.html). As stated in the 201 document, the City plans to implement the improvements to the existing 14 MGD plant during Phase I of the project and then the ultimate 20 year design flow expansion during Phase II of the project. As stated previously, the NPDES Unit has no objections to the proposed modification and improvements for the 14 MGD design flow. However, prior to expanding to 18 MGD or funding of Phase II (18 MGD), the document should be revised to reflect speculative limits for 18 MGD, thoroughly document alternatives and thoroughly justify the 20 year flow projcction. cc: Ken Schuster, RRO/WQ Central Files NPDES Unit January 23, 2003 Mr. Charles W. Pittman City of Wilson PO Box 10 Wilson, North Carolina 27894-0010 Michael F. Easley Governor William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director Division of Water Quality Subject: Evaluation of Copper and Zinc per DWQ's Copper and Zinc Action Level Policy December 10, 2002 Report NPDES No. NC0023906 Wilson County Dear Mr. Pittman: r(bc This office has completed a review of the subject document prepared by the City dated December 10, 2002. DWQ's Copper and Zinc Action Level Policy was triggered by the November and December 2001 toxicity test failures. An evaluation of reasonable potential to violate instream action levelsTotal for these parameters was conducted by the NPDES Unit and NOVs dated October 22, 2001, January 24, 2002 and March 11, 2002 were sent to the facility. The City submitted correspondence dated April 2, 2002 to our Unit and chose Option 3 (Toxicity Identification Evaluation) to definitively rule out copper and/or zinc as causes of effluent toxicity. The City's December 10 report cites no additional effluent toxicity permit limit violations since December 2001 after eliminating a WWTP polymer that was suspected of causing the chronic toxicity effluent permit limit violations. The City declined to perform metal "spiking" of non -toxic samples during the nine month period. The City requests that the December 10 report be considered as the final report "for the evaluation of the causes for the toxicity failures experienced during August, November and December 2001." While our office considers that City's actions to address these WET limit failures to be proactive and appreciated, we cannot accept the December 10 report as conclusive evidence to rule out copper and zinc as causative effluent toxicants. It appears that the City's investigative work regarding polymer usage had a positive effect in reducing effluent toxicity to acceptable levels; however, evidence of instream concentrations for these parameters below the action level standard does not "definitively" rule out these two metals.

Two open digester tanks are used to stabilize biosolids that are applied as a liquid. A process called Biofix is used to stabilize dewatered biosolids. For the liquid process, lime is brought in by tanker and injected into the stabilization tank while the tank is mixed. Once the biosolids are stabilized. 'he contents of the stabilization tank are transferred to the other tank prior to disposal. Either tank can be used for stabilization and/or storage. The Class B residual: arc: land applied in liquid form to permitted sites. A filter press is also used to dewater biosolids that are stabilized by lime during the Biofix process. The cake, Class A or Class B can be produced, is applied on permitted land or taken to an approved landfill if permitted land is not available.

HOMINY CREEK WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW A. GENERAL The Hominy Creek Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) provides tertiary treatment, including nitrogen and phosphorus removal, for a design capacity of 14 mgd. Raw wastewater from the off -site and on -site pump stations receives preliminary treatment by screening and grit removal before being conveyed to preaeration tanks. From the preaeration tanks, flow is distributed to primary clarifiers and then to a biological nutrient removal (BNR) activated sludge stage. Major process units of the BNR activated sludge stage consist of a biological phosphorus removal (BPR) tank, aeration tanks, secondary clarifiers and return activated sludge (RAS) pumping stations. Secondary clarifier effluent receives tertiary treatment in effluent filters and is then aerated and disinfected in post aeration/chlorine contact tanks to meet DO and fecal coliform effluent limits. The effluent is then dechlorinated at the end of the post aeration/chlorine contact tanks to meet a total residual chlorine effluent limit, and is discharged to Contentnea Creek through a 48-inch effluent outfall. The solids handling facilities for the primary solids and waste activated sludge consist of a gravity belt thickener for waste activated sludge thickening and anaerobic digesters/solids storage tanks for solids stabilization and storage, followed by liquid biosolids land application on privately -owned farm land. One of the anaerobic digesters/solids storage tanks can also be used for liquid lime stabilization prior to land application. Sand drying beds are available for standby dewatering or for use when draining a digester for cleaning.
