CHRONIC TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests,
using test procedures outlined in:
I.) 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 9 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure
document). The permit holder shall perform guarterLv monitoring using this procedure to establish
compliance with the permit condition. The. first test will be performed after thirty days from
issuance of this permit during the months of , .. - 7vd JP Joe-- . Effluent
samplingfor this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below •
all treatntprocesses.
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
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
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 even:). Failure to submit
suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements

CHRONIC TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests,
using test procedures outlined in:
I.) 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 auarter[v monitoring using this procedure to establish
compliance with the permit condition. The. fast test will be performed after thirty days from
issuance of this permit during the months of Ao.e avI) .sf/' ,Z • _ Effluent
sampling for this testing shiii 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 ItJP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
performed irrassociation with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual
chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reponed 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(witlnin 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit
suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Dear Mr. Einsmann:
Our records indicate that NPDES Permit No. NC0006190 was
issued on November 13, 1991 for the discharge of wastewater to
the surface waters of the State from your facility. The purpose
of this letter is to advise you of the importance of the Permit
and the liabilities in the event of failure to comply with the
terms and conditions of the Permit. If you have not already done
so, it is suggested that you thoroughly read the Permit. Of
particular importance are Pages 4-7.
Pages 4-7 set forth the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements for your discharge(s). Your discharge(s) must not
exceed any of the limitations set forth. The section headed
"Monitoring Requirements" describes the measurement frequencies,
sample types and sampling locations. Upon commencement of your
discharge (or operation), you must initiate the required
monitoring. The monitoring results must be entered on the
reporting forms furnished to you by this Agency. If you have not
received these forms, they should be arriving shortly. If you
fail to receive the forms, please contact this Office as quickly
as possible. I have enclosed a sample of the "Effluent"
reporting form (DEM Form MR-1), plus instructions for completing
the form. It is imperative that all applicable parts be
completed, and the original and one copy be submitted as
required.
The remaining Parts of the Permit set forth definitions,
general conditions and special conditions applicable to the
operation of wastewater treatment facilities and/or discharge(s).
The conditions include special reporting requirements in the
919 North Main Street, Mooresville, N.C. 28115 • Telephone [phone] • FAX [phone]

event of noncompliance, bypasses, treatment unit/process
failures, etc. Also addressed are requirements for a certified
wastewater treatment plant operator if you are operating
wastewater treatment facilities. Any changes in operation of
wastewater treatment facilities, quantity and type of wastewater
being treated or discharged, expansions and/or upgrading of
wastewater treatment facilities must be permitted or approved by
this Agency.
Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of an NPDES
Permit subjects the Permittee to enforcement action pursuant to
Section 143-215.6 of the North Carolina General Statutes. A
civil penalty of up to $10,000 per violation plus criminal
penalties may be assessed for such violations. If you find at
any time that you are unable to comply with the terms and
conditions of the Permit, you should contact this Office
immediately. A Consent Order may be necessary while pursuing
action to obtain compliance.
As a final note, an NPDES Permit is normally issued for a
five-year period. Permits are not automatically renewed.
Renewal requests must be submitted to this Agency no later than
180 days prior to expiration. Please make note of the expiration
date of your Permit. This date is set forth on Page 1 of the
Permit. Also note that NPDES Permits are not transferable. If
you, as the Permittee, cease to need this Permit, then you should
request that the Permit be rescinded.
As mentioned previously, the purpose of this letter is to
advise you of the importance of your NPDES Permit. Please read
the Permit and contact this Office at 704/663-1699 in Mooresville
if you have any questions or need clarification. We look forward
to providing any assistance.

Part III Permit No. NC0006190
D. Chronic Toxicity Limit (Ceriodaphnia, Quarterly Pass/Fail)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests,
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 89% (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 issuance of this
permit during the months of March, June, September and December. 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
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535
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 reopened 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.
E. Pollutant Analysis Condition
The permittee shall conduct a test for pollutants annually at the effluent from the treatment plant.
The discharge shall be evaluated as follows: 1) A pollutant analysis of the effluent must be
completed annually using EPA approved methods for the following analytic fractions: (a)
purgeables (i.e., volatile organic compounds); (b) acid extractables; (c) base/neutral extractables;
(d) organochlorine pesticides and PCB's (e) herbicides; and (f) metals and other inorganics. The
Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring (APAM) Requirement Reporting Form A and accompanying

memo, to be provided to all discharges affected by this monitoring requirement, describes the
sampling and analysis requirements and lists chemicals to be included in the pollutant analysis.
This monitoring requirement is to be referred to as the "Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring
Requirement" (APAM).
(2) Other significant levels of organic chemicals must be identified and approximately quantified.
For the purpose of implementing this requirement, the largest 10 GC/MS peaks in the purgeable
base/neutral extractable, and acid extractable fractions (or fewer than 10, if less than 10
unidentified peaks occur) for chemicals other than those specified on the APA Requirement
Reporting Form A should be identified and approximately quantified as stated in the APAM
Reporting Form A instructions. This part (item 2) of the APAM requirement is to be referred to as
the "10 significant peaks rule").
F. Chronic Toxicity Limit (Ceriodaphnia, Quarterly Pass/Fail)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests,
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 11% (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 issuance of this
permit during the months of March, June, September and December. 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
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535
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 reopened 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.

MEMORANDUM TO: Don Safrit
FROM: D. Rex GleasonoA
PREPARED BY: Allen Hardy ikA'
SUBJECT:
Permit Modification
Permit No. NC0006190
Delta Mills, Inc. - Maiden Plant
Catawba County, North Carolina
This Office has received the subject permit modification and
offers the following comments. Delta Mills is a textile plant
with dyeing being one of its principal processes. The effluent
wastewater from the facility is highly colored and likewise the
receiving waters (presently Pinch Gut Creek which is tributary to
Clark Creek). This Office has major concerns with the impact
that color may be having on Clark's Creek and eventually the
South Fork Catawba River. The Division of Environmental Health,
Water Supply Section, has informed the Division of Environmental
Management that municipalities,located downstream of Delta Mills
and other discharges influenced with dye, are having to increase
their chemical usage at their water treatment plants to
adequately treat the water to potable standards. The
municipalities suggest that the color or properties associated
with the dye discharge are causing this increase in chemical
treatment.
Due to the concern expressed by the Division of
Environmental Health as well as our concern, this Office
recommends that the subject Permit be modified to include color
monitoring.
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to
contact Allen Hardy or me.

Dear Mr. Einsmann:
Subject: Permit Modification
Permit No. NC0006190
Delta Mills, Inc. - Maiden Plant
Catawba County
On November 13, 1991, the Division of Environmental Management issued NPDES Permit No.
NC0006190 to Delta Mills, Inc.. A review of the permit file has indicated that an error was
inadvertently made in the permit. The Permit you received had incorrect monitoring frequency for
instream locations after relocation of the discharge. The permit should read "Stream samples should
be collected three times per week during June, July, August, and September, and once per week
during the remaining months of the year." Accordingly, we are forwarding herewith modifications to
the subject permit to correct the error.
Please find enclosed new effluent sheets which should be inserted into your permit. The old
pages should be discarded. All other terms and conditions contained in the original permit remain
unchanged and in full effect. These permit modifications are issued pursuant to the requirements of
North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North
Carolina and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency.
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 permit. 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, NC 27611-7447. Unless such a
demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.

3. EPIC:
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. 1ct or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the. Clean Water Act, as
amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge: is defined as the total mass of all
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on
which daily discharges are sample and measured, divided by the number
of daily discharges samples and/or measured during such month. It is
therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the
pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by
the number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is
identified as "Daily Average" or "Monthly Average" in Part I. of the
permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined es the total mass of
all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar week
(Sunday -Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured,
divided by the number of daily discharges samples and/or measured
during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by
adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then
dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This
limitation is identified as "Weekly Ave: age" in Part: T of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a
pollutant discharged during a calendar day. If only one sample is
taken -during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from
it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as
"Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all
daily discharges sample and/or measured during the calendar year on
which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number
of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is,
therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of
pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the
number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as
"Annual Average" in Part I of the permit.

Part I1
Page 12 of 14
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform
bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges
samples and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges
are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the
concentration of a composite sample or in the...case of grab samples is the
arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected
during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform
bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a
calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" or
"Daily Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria,
is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges
are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the
concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the
arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during
that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is
the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar
week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other
Limits" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant
discharge during a calendar day. It is identified as "Daily Maximum"
under "Other Limits" in Part T of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria,
is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during a calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The
daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite
sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by
flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The
average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean
of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year. This limitation
is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the
permit.

Part II
Page 13 of 14
7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours
average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean
of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time
of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the
total discharge.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: These samples consist of grab samples collected at
equal intervals and combined proportional to flow, n sample continuously
collected proportionally to flow, or equal volumes taken at varying time
intervals. If a composite sample is obtained from grab samples, the
following requirements apply. The intervals between influent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly. Intervals between effluent grab
samples shall be no greater than hourly except where the detention time
of the wastewater in the facility is greater than 24 hours, in which
case, the interval between grab samples shall be no greater in number of
hours than the detention time in number of days; provided, however, in
no case may the time between effluent grab samples be greater than six
hours nor the number of grab samples less than four during any discharge
period of 24 hours or less.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a
period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken
manually.
9. Calculation of Means
a. Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation
of the individual values divided by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of
' the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of
individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of
the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. For
purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be
considered to be one (1).
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each
concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the
respective flows.

Part II
Page 14 of 14
10. Calendar Day
A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight
of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour
period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling.
11. Hazardous Substance
A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116
pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
12. Toxic Pollutant
A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of
the Clean Water Act.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The wastewater treatment facilities serving the Delta
Mills - Maiden plant appeared well operated and maintained at
the time of the site inspection. A review of the facility's
self -monitoring data indicated compliance with NPDES Permit
requirements with the exception of a few minor pH violations.
All domestic wastewater generated at this facility is
treated at the Town of Maiden's municipal wastewater treatment
plant.
The discharge from this facility has a significant effect
on the receiving stream due to dye wastewater. The receiving
stream maintains the coloration until it reaches Clark Creek
(approximately 1.5 miles).
It should be noted that the owner/applicant has requested
that the name of this facility be changed to reflect the current
ownership. The name of this facility should be changed from
Maiden Knitting Mills, Inc. to Delta Mills, Inc., Maiden Plant
with the mailing address being Post Office Box 37, Maiden, North
Carolina 28650. The name change is due to a recent merger of
Maiden Knitting into Delta Mills, Inc.

F. Toxicity Reopener
This permit shall be modified, or revoked and reissued to
incorporate toxicity limitations and monitoring requirements in the
event toxicity testing or other studies conducted on the effluent or
receiving stream indicate that detrimental effects may be expected
in the receiving stream as a result of this discharge.
G. Chronic Toxicity Testing Requirement
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity
using test procedures outlined in:
1. The North Carolina Ceriodajhnia chronic effluent bioassay
procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised
*February 1987) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable
inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 89% (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 issuance of this
permit 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.
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:
Technical Services Branch
North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
PO Box 27687
Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687
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 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 reopened and modified to include alternate monitoring
requirements or limitations.

Part III
Permit No. NC0006190
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 a
failure of permit conditions.
A. The permittee shall conduct a test for priority pollutants annually
at the effluent from the treatment plant. The discharge shall be
evaluated for all volatile fractions, acid fractions, base/neutral
fractions, and pesticide fractions listed in Table II of Appendix D.
of 40 CFR Part 122 and all metals, cyanide, and phenols listed in
Table III of Appendix D. of 40 CFR Part 122. The permittee shall
test the effluent for any pollutants listed in Tables IV and V of
Appendix D. of 40 CFR Part 122, if a specific pollutant is believed
to be present in the discharge. In addition to the above testing
requirements, other significant levels of synthetic organic
chemicals must be identified. For the purpose of implementing this
requirement, the largest 10 percent of the GC/MS peaks other than
the priority pollutants shall be identified. All tests shall be
performed in accordance with the EPA Reference Methods listed in 40
CFR Part 136.

CHRONIC TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT (QR"1'RLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxicity tests,
using test procedures outlined in:
I.) 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 22 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure
document). The permit holder shall perform Ruarterty monitoring using this procedure to establish
compliance with the permit condition. The. first test will by performed after rhirry days from
issuance of this permit during the months of Afie TZ.t/ .sir vc-• . Effluent
sampling for this testing shill be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below
all treat:Me= 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 13P3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
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.
NO Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document. such as minimum
control organism survival and appropriate environmenutl controls, shall constitute an invalid test
and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring even!). Failure to submit
suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Analysis shall be performed in the field using the "glass disks field method"
(Standard Methods - 204A).
Analyze samples as follows:
(a) using the platinum -cobalt method; and
(b) Using a narrow -band scanning spectrophotometer to produce a
tral curve of the visible spectrum (350-750 nm). Calculate and
in ADMI color units from the information indicated.

Bioassay Procedure - Revised *February 1987) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality is $ 96 (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure
document). The permit ho]der shall perform Quarterly monitoring usingthis procedure to
compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be performed ter thirty days from
bush
issuance of this permit during the months of , , . Effluent
sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted fr 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
appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT -I (original) is to be sent to the following
address:

--- 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 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

Enclosed you will find two completed sets of your Standard Form C
application for renewal of our Maiden pennit,which expires on July 31, 1979,
with signature authorization attached.
Please noticethat item 7, 8, and 9 flows are listed as annual daily averages
as required which do not represent actual manufacturing day flows.
We do have flow equalization capability in our wastewater treatment plant
which enables us to maintain a resonably constant seven day discharge to the
stream. However, would you. please consider setting permit. flow limits at 1 MGD
as a daily average with 1.25 MGD daily maximumrather than 1 MGD maximum.
Please notice also that there is no domestic waste discharge toour waste-
water plant or to the stream. I suggest consideration of the elimination of
plant effluent chlorination requirements.
Thank you for your consideration of these requests.
Yours truly,
Melvin Rape, P. E.
