Goulston has had a similar IUP for the past 30+years and the current permit expires on 6/30/22. As we have discussed with the City over the past year,Goulston's manufacturing expansion is expected to increase water usage and generate additional industrial wastewater discharge to the sewer. As part of the expansion,Goulston is planning to install additional pretreatment capacity, and this correspondence is intended to describe the planned pretreatment expansion. Goulston researched many options for expansion of pretreatment capacity,and determined that a Membrane Biological System (MBR)seemed capable of treating Goulston's industrial wastewater and meeting the IUP requirements - with specific emphasis on BOD removal. Goulston leased a pilot plant MBR system from Dynatec and performed treatability studies from September,2021 through March, 2022. This pilot program was performed onsite at Goulston under the guidance of our wastewater consultants(Civil & Environmental Consultants(CEC)), from Charlotte, NC. Sampling and performance testing data was performed by three parties - Goulston,CEC and Pace Laboratories. The data from all three testing parties was compiled and reviewed daily under the guidance of Goulston,CEC and Dynatec. The results are very positive and indicate that a MBR system can be used to treat Goulston's industrial wastewater. Based on these findings,Goulston proposes to install a 10,000 gal/day MBR system in 2022 to supplement Goulston's existing distillation pretreatment systems and handle the expanded flows. The MBR system design allows for future expansion if necessary. This correspondence supplies the following supporting documents: - Project report and recommendations from CEC-including flow diagram&material balance for the proposed system. - Goulston flow plan-outlining current and future requirements - Data summary from pilot study - Equipment description from vendor Kevin,thank you for your consideration,and please advise any questions as well as next steps required to gain approval to proceed with procurement and construction.

Goulston 315-431 March 2022 1.0 PROPOSED PROJECT DESCRIPTION Goulston Technologies, Inc. operates a specialty chemical manufacturing facility located at 700 N Johnson St, Monroe, NC. Goulston is a market leader in the chemicals sector and is the largest dedicated supplier of formulated fiber lubricant products to the synthetic fiber manufacturing industry. Goulston also developed expertise in other surface modification technologies. The facility operates in SIC Code 2992 and NAICS Code 324191. Currently, the facility processes approximately 10,000 to 20,000 per day (gpd) of wastewater that discharges to the City of Monroe's wastewater collection system. The site currently discharges to the sewer under a Significant Industrial Wastewater Discharge Permit No. CM-01 to the City of Monroe Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) under the city's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) number NC0024333. The discharge permit is effective from July 1, 2019 to June 31, 2022. Under their discharge permit Goulston discharges both domestic wastes (Discharge Pipe #01) and process wastewater (Pipe #02) that includes process tank cleaning, non-contact cooling water, cooling tower blowdown, reverse osmosis reject water,. The process wastewater has the following discharge limits for pipe #02 as shown in Table 1. C ivil & Environmental Consultant, Inc. -1- Goulston 315-431 March 2022 Table 1: Goulston Discharge Limits, Permit No. CM-01 Parameter Discharge Limits Daily Monthly Average Flow 0.030 mgd pH 6.0-11.0 s.u. Daily Max Monthly Average mg/L (lbs/day) (lbs/day) Biochemical Oxygen Demand(BOD5) 65 lbs/day Total Suspended Solids (TSS) 50 lbs/day Copper 0.05 lbs/day Zinc 0.07 lbs/day Cyanide 0.06 lbs/day Ammonia 4 lbs/day The Goulston facility is compliant with effluent requirements, which translates the BOD requirement of 65 pounds per day (lb/day) to a concentration limit of 260 milligrams per liter (mg/L) at the flow of 0.03 million gallons per day(mgd). The existing process flow of 10,000 gpd is treated in a distillation unit. The maximum capacity of the distillation unit is 15,000 gpd and typically processes 10,000 gpd with a raw BOD concentration of approximately 30,000 mg/L. The distillation unit discharges treated wastewater with BOD concentration of approximately 500 mg/L. Residual oils from the distillation unit are disposed off-site as a valuable product. The remainder of the daily flows originate from Reverse Osmosis rejection, boiler and cooling tower blowdown, and noncontact cooling water. Goulston is planning a process upgrade that will increase the process wastewater from an existing capacity of 15,000 gpd to 25,000 gpd. The existing distillation unit will not be capable of processing the wastewater to a desired effluent concentration of 250 mg/L. Therefore, Goulston evaluated technologies and selected a two-stage ultrafilter system to meet anticipated effluent limit of approximately 250 mg/L BOD. Civil 'mental Consultants, Inc. -2- Goulston 315-431 March 2022 2.0 PILOT TEST EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION The pilot system at Goulston consists of a first stage ultrafilter system that produces a concentrated discharge that will flow to the distillation unit. The Stage 1 ultrafilter consists of a recirculation tank,ultrafilter,Clean in Place(CIP)and pumps in a self-contained skid. The permeate of the first stage unit flows to a second stage biological treatment system consisting of a 2,500-gallon aeration tank and an ultrafilter along with internal pumps and a CIP system that comprises the Membrane Ultrafilter(MBR) skid system. The MBR Stage 2 treats the first stage effluent of 2,000 mg/L and discharges an effluent of less than 250 mg/L. The distillate wastewater flow is also added to the aeration tank. The equipment supplier, Dynatec, monitors both skids remotely. Civil & Environmental Consultants. Inc.. -3- Goulston 315-431 March 2022 3.0 PILOT TEST PERFORMANCE The results of the several month pilot tests are shown in figures 1 and 2 for Oxygen Uptake Rate (OUR) and effluent BOD, respectively. The pilot scale MBR was identified as being nutrient deficient,as there is non-detect ammonia and a minimal concentration of available orthophosphate in the raw wastewater. Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) that contains 32% urea is used as a nitrogen supply. Phosphoric acid acts as an available orthophosphate phosphorous source. The urea dosing was varied to optimize performance and was, calibrated to 200-250 milliliter per day (ml/day). This rate provided nitrogen without detectable ammonia in the effluent. The phosphoric acid feed was in the range of 75 to 100 mL/day that resulted in an effluent of less than 0.5 mg/L of phosphorous. Pilot MBR effluent unit was calibrated with various nutrient addition amounts, and was controlled to a non-detect ammonia concentration, and a phosphorous discharge of less than 0.5 mg/L. & Environmental Consulr.,nrs. Inc. -4- Goulston 315-431 March 2022 4.0 TREATABILITY OF THE WASTEWATER Goulston operated a pilot scale treatmentsystemduring the fall and winter of 2021 and 2022. The system provided confirmation that process wastewater can be treated effectively to meet existing and anticipated effluent limits. The test period evaluated the incoming wastewater to Stage 1 from an equalization tank, Stage 1 effluent, MBR process parameters, and MBR effluent as shown in the following Figures 1 and 2. Analytical tests were performed in-house for Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and OUR. Pace Analytical analyzed mixed liquor suspended solids(MLSS)as TSS,TOC and BOD and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) of both the Stage 1 effluent and the Stage 2 MBR effluent, as well as temperature and pH. CEC analyzed Stage 1 and the MBR (Stage 2) for MLSS, mixed liquor volatile suspended solids(MLVSS), ammonia,Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen(TKN), and phosphorous. Caustic was also added to maintain a pH of approximately 7.5 S.U. The operation of the two stages were conducted on-site by Goulston staff and monitored remotely by the system supplier, Dynatec. The flow rate averaged 1 gpm with ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 gpm for both the Stage 1 and Stage 2 units. The OUR in the MBR aeration ranged from 15 to over 50 mg/L/hour. A summary of the OUR data is shown below with a trendline, that indicates the wastewater is easily degradable.The trendline shows that as the biomass became acclimated to the wastewater,the activity of the biomass increased. %ovirfnmentai Consultants.

The design operating condition is estimated to be 8,000 to 12,000 mg/L at a food to mass ratio (F/M) of 0.15 to 0.20. The MBR effluent data is shown below. Initially,the effluent BOD experienced a startup phase as the MLSS started growth and acclimation period. Following acclimation,a very low effluent BOD was observed. Several spikes were seen due to a variety of factors, including a washout of the mixed liquor, a change in the DEF solution addition to minimize the effluent ammonia, a mechanical issue with aeration,and other mechanical valving issues in the pilot plant arrangement. On balance, the figure below shows that the wastewater is readily degradable. The full-scale system will have the ability to equalize waste and a structured wasting program will control the mixed liquor concentration. The system will have the ability to recycle if the effluent BOD is anticipated to exceed 250 mg/L. When the TOC concentration of the effluent was consistently below 400 mg/L, the effluent BOD was below 250 mg/L, often in the single digits. The effluent BOD is shown in the figure below with a trendline showing the increasing acclimatization of the biomass to the wastewater that resulted in a discharge meeting anticipated effluent limits.

The WWTP is expected to operate 24 hrs. /day and be manned by operational personnel from 6 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. The proposed treatment system is designed for a flow of 10,000 gpd with expansion capability to 20,000 gpd The proposed treatment system process flow will collect the wastewaters in a proposed series of equalization tanks—20,000 gallons at the new Goulston manufacturing facility and 20,000 gallons near the new MBR treatment system.The content will be mixed by installation of a proposed mixer or pump recirculation system. The mixed wastewater then flows to the first stage ultrafilter system to reduce solids. Organic content will be reduced in the second stage MBR. The reject will flow to the existing distillation unit. The permeate from the first stage ultrafilter and the clear portion of the distillate will flow to the second stage MBR. The concentrate from the distillation unit will be sold as a product, as is the current practice. The MBR ultrafilter effluent will be either discharged directly to the sewer,or collected in a transfer tank to be discharged to the sewer.Based on frequent TOC tests,the MBR effluent will be returned to the MBR treatment unit for reprocessing confirm that the effluent will be below 250 mg/L The captured solids will then be dewatered with a dewatering device, such as a screw press that compresses the solids, or existing thin film evaporator, removing water and collecting the dewatered sludge in a hopper until off-site disposal. The Process Flow Diagram for the full-scale system, incorporating the equipment shown in Table 2, is in Appendix A. The proposed mass balance for the full-scale system is shown in Appendix B.

TIME LIMIT This proposal is valid for a period of thirty(30)days from the date of the proposal. INTRODUCTION The project proposal is for the design and supply of a wastewater treatment system for the Goulston Technologies plant in Monroe, NC. The proposed system is designed to process the ten thousand gallons per day of wastewater which includes 1000 gpd of distillate. The proposed system includes the necessary major system components along with the associated engineering. Dynatec has more than forty-three (43) years of experience in the application of membrane systems. During this time, the company has provided all categories of membrane systems, including Microfiltration (MF), Ultrafiltration (UF), Nanofiltration (NF)and Reverse Osmosis(RO)systems. We approach the MBR projects as an end user, searching for the most reliable, cost effective and safest systems to operate. Dynatec is able to supply membrane products from a wide range of suppliers, and therefore can always select the best membrane for any particular application. Dynatec provides a number of membrane configurations for MBR applications. The decision as to which configuration to supply for any particular project is based on the job-specific requirements, and the wastewater composition. All Dynatec products offered for use in MBR applications use the external tubular UF membrane configuration. These products have proven through 45 years of experience to be more rugged, longer lasting and easier to control than alternative products. In addition, external modules make them safer to control, operate and maintain. The MBR process uses the same robust tubular membranes that have been used in cross-flow applications for many years.The advantages of using an external tubular membrane configuration are: • Long membrane life • Ease of operation • Consistent high quality permeate • Simple operational control • No requirements for annual draining of the membrane chamber • Easy to troubleshoot alarm modes • Enhanced operator safety • Low maintenance requirements External tubular membranes do not move in process. High velocity liquid scours the boundary layer from the membrane.The MBR is provided with a skid-mounted clean-in-place (CIP)system, which is used to clean the system in a matter of a few hours. DYNATEC SYSTEMS,INC.•360 Connecticut Drive.■Burlington•NJ•USA•Voice•609-387-0330•Fax•609-239-2061•web•www.dynatecsystems.com 12 March 2022 Proposal 221005D Page 2 The MBR membrane arrangement does not expose the operator to off-gases and does not required annual draining of the membrane chamber for a visual inspection. The infrequent replacement of membranes modules is a simple process, not requiring confined-space entry. Connections at each end of the membrane modules allow the old modules to be removed and the new modules place into service easily, using the same fittings. The proposed wastewater treatment system is based on using a tubular ultrafiltration membrane process that has been successfully used in this application by Dynatec for almost twenty years. The Ultrafilter membrane provides a consistent, high quality effluent without the addition of chemicals or constant operator attention. The filter provides a positive barrier the effectively separates the oils and other solids from the discharge ensuring the project discharge limits are consistently met. The benefits of the treatment system are: • Automatic Operation • Consistent Effluent Quality • Low Operator Cost • Low Chemical Cost • Minimal Disposal Cost • Remote Monitoring Capability DESIGN BASIS The following details the design basis of the equipment proposed: Wastewater Source Wastewater that is generated during the manufacturing of chemicals Pre-Treatment Prior to influent being delivered to the MBR process, the following pre-treatment shall have been carried out where necessary: • Removal of large solids • Wastewater collection and equalization • Wastewater transfer Additional Criteria The design of the MBR system is based on the influent wastewater satisfying the following additional criteria: • The wastewater must not contain contaminants that may be toxic to the process, or inhibit the removal of BOD and/or COD and/or nitrogen compounds (i.e. toxic, intractable or recalcitrant substances). • The wastewater must not contain contaminants that are damaging to, or will cause blinding of, the membrane system. Any chemicals used in the wastewater feed should be submitted to Dynatec for review and approval. Any chemicals proposed for future use should also be reviewed by Dynatec prior to use. • The wastewater must contain sufficient trace nutrients required to support the biology during the treatment of the organic contaminants • The MBR system design is based on the temperature noted in the Influent Specifications. Lower temperatures will have an inhibitory effect on the biological process, and will affect the membrane system performance. Temperatures higher than the specified range will cause changes to the biomass that may adversely affect the process.

This information followed Goulston's IUP application from 3/1/22, requesting renewal and upgrade of the current IUP that expires on 6/30/22. Goulston requests authorization to construct the proposed 10,000 gpd Membrane Biological System (MBR) as presented in the 3/24/22 documentation. The upgraded IUP is requested due to Goulston's manufacturing expansion in progress on the northside of the site. Goulston has installed a pipe bridge connecting the north and south sites, and process wastewater will be transferred daily from the north site to the expanded treatment facility at the south site. Goulston plans to install the MBR system in a building adjacent to the current WWT bldg. with piping between the two buildings. Storage and equalization will utilize several existing Goulston stainless steel storage tanks. Procurement and installation primarily involve the MBR systems, controls, and piping to integrate the MBR system with Goulston's existing wastewater pretreatment systems. Kevin, thank you for your consideration, and please advise any questions as well as next steps required to gain approval to proceed with procurement and construction. Sincerely, Bruce Robinson, G.M.
