Dear Mr. Nelson:

August 30, 1995
Subject: NPDES Permit Renewal
Permit No. NC0000078
Ecusta Division
Transylvania County
In accordance with your application for discharge permit received on February 20, 1995,
we are forwarding herewith the subject state - NPDES permit. This permit is issued pursuantyo
the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215 .1 and the Memorandum'Rf
Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Ageng dated
December 6, 1983. -rnv co
C)
P.H. Glatfelter submitted several comments on the draft NPDES permit in a law- da��'d
August 4, 1995. For your convenience, the following responses to these comments ared3rovi&led
in corresponding order and number to those submitted. cn r-
1.a. The extended aeration wastewater treatment system has been deleted from
the supplement to the cover sheet.
1 .b. The domestic sewage sludge conditions have been deleted from the permit.
The deletions correspond to those found in your previously issued NPDES
permit and address all of the eight items specifically listed in your
comments.
1.c. The Duty to Reapply language has been deleted as requested. This
modification corresponds to the deletion found in your previously issued
NPDES permit.
1.d. The Previous Permit language has been modified as requested by deleting
the bracketed sentences and editing the "to operate" language. The
modifications correspond to those found in your previously issued NPDES
permit and address the specific language indicated in your comments.
2. The cover sheet has been modified to include outfalls 002 and 003 which
discharge to the Davidson River.

3. The effluent guideline calculations provided in your comments are correct.
However, the BOD5 limits provided in both your previously issued permit
and this permit are water quality limited based upon a model of the
assimilative capacity of the receiving stream, not on effluent guideline
calculations. The model indicates that the receiving stream can not
assimilate a discharge from your facility at effluent guideline levels without
downstream violations of the water quality standard for dissolved oxygen.
Therefore, the monthly average limits applied to your facility are determined
to be those discharge levels that will not adversely affect the minimum
dissolved oxygen level downstream. Daily maximum limits were
determined by applying the effluent guideline daily maximum to monthly
average ratio of 2.0 to the modeled monthly average limits (i.e., the daily
maximum is double the monthly average). The monthly average and daily
maximum summer and winter BOD5 limits are unchanged from your
previously issued permit.
Please note that under the French Broad River Basin Plan, industrial
discharges to this river segment will require discharge limits to be modeled
under a Qua12E model using in -stream data. This model is more
sophisticated than the model used to determine your current permit limits
and should be performed upon the next permit renewal. This may affect
your future permit limits.
cn
4. Settleable solids monitoring is currently recommended for all discharges
with high total suspended solids limits, such as P.H. Glatfelter. Therefore,
the permit contains a requirement for monthly monitoring of settlea`$'le
solids. However, P.H. Glatfelter may apply for a permit modification 'h
respect to settleable solids at such time as 12 consecutive months of effluent
data indicate no significant water quality concerns. A long-term average
settleable solids volume of 5 ml/1 is acceptable.
5. P.H. Glatfelter requested that TSS and BOD monitoring frequencies remain
as in the previous permit and not be changed to comply with Class IV
frequency requirements. This request is based upon the extended residence
time in the treatment system and the "substantial burden" these monitoring
frequencies would impose upon the facility. There is a maximum seven day
holding period for TSS and the facility is not required to collect samples on
weekends. Therefore, the facility would not be required to have personnel
on -site during weekends to collect or analyze a TSS sample and no
substantial burden would be imposed by the daily monitoring requirement.
The maximum holding time for BOD samples is 24 hours. Since the facility
is not required to collect samples on weekends and laboratory staff are not
on hand then, the facility is capable of running a BOD test for monitoring
performed three times per week. A review of available DMR data indicated
that effluent BOD levels are relatively consistent. In addition, the extended
residence time in the treatment facility greatly reduces the potential for
unaccountable peaks in BOD levels. Therefore, the frequency for BOD
sampling has been changed to 3/week as requested.

6. The definition of "daily" as every day a discharge occurs except weekends
and legal holidays has been added to the effluent limitations and monitoring
requirements pages.
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 150E 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 demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please take notice this permit is not transferable. Part II, E.4. addresses the requirements
to be followed in case of change in ownership or control of this discharge.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the Division of Environmental Management or permits required by the Division of
Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit
that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Jeanettecgowal at

or significant mortalityis 21 %defined as treatment two in the North Carolina pro re r-
docunt . The permit holder shallperform quarterlymonitoring using this procedure to
establish compliance with thepermit onditioThe first test will be performed after thirty N
days from the effective date f 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:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical
measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response
data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported
if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then
monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed.
Permit No. NC0000078
PART V
A. Dioxin Monitoring
All analysis must be performed using the appropriate method of analysis specified in
proposed EPA Method 1613, 56 Fed. Reg. 5090 (February 7, 1991), or another
equivalent analytical protocol appproved by DEM. The method detection limit shall
be considered to be 10 picograms per liter. A single sample may be analyzed.
Alternatively, a sample volume may be collected to enable the sample to be split
(duplicative analysis). If the analysis of either split sample is below the dection limit,
the quantity for purposes of evaluation, is considered to be zero. The dioxin isomer to
be monitored and limited by this permit is 2,3,4,8 TCDD. This paragraph supersedes
Part II.D.4 of this permit with respect to dioxin.
Fish tissue analysis will be performed, as a minimum, at one station established
upstream of the discharge and at two stations downstream in accordance with the
Division of Environmental Management approved monitoring plan. The monitoring
plan is an enforceable part of this permit. All dioxin data collected as part of this
monitoring requirement will be reported within three months after collection or within
two months of receipt by permittee of results from the analytical laboratory, which
ever is later.
The permittee shall perform fish tissue analyses for TCDD and TCDF annually. The
permittee shall also monitor influent to the wastewater treatment facility and primary
sludge from the wastewater treatment facility as required by the approved Novemigt
1991 Supplemental Monitoring Plan, which is an enforceable part of this perm
After the initial fish tissue analysis, the permittee may petition the Division fora
review of the annual requirement. If the data from annual fish tissue anals
indicates there are no dioxin concerns, an alternate schedule may be granted.

Subject: Ecusta FYI
To: Carla Sanderson
I pulled the Ecusta DMRs and the TSS data doesn't look bad at all, but I've decided to leave
the settleable solids monitoring in the permit with the condition that they can file a permit mod
after one year if the data looks ok. If we're going to collect data on a consistent basis, we
might as well have some on "good" facilities as well as bad ones.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
is 21 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall
perform quarter(y monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first
test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of
_JANAPR JUL OCT . Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final
effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge
Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B.
Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607
Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in
association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity
sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will
begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will
revert to quarterly in the months specified above.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and
modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism
survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Facility requesting renewal of existing NPDES permit. Facility is a manufacturer of
fine papers using the following processes: fme bleached kraft - 40 CFR 430.90, N.L
Lightweight Paper - 40 CFR 430.240, N.I. Fine Paper. - 40 CFR 430.180. Effluent
guidelines for BOD5 and TSS for this type of manufacturer are included with the WLA
however the existing limits given in the permit for BOD5 and TSS are water quality based.
Older Level B models for the system have a DO min. of 5.16 mg/1 downstream of Ecusta
outfall.
WLA last renewed in 1993 done by B. Johnson, these limits were given:
BOD5 = 20 mg/1 and 4587 lbs/day (summer)
40 mg/1 and 9174 lbs/day (winter)
TSS = 11585 lbs/day
NH3-N = monitor
DO = 4 mg/1
pH = 6-9 SU
Effluent monitoring for dioxin, total phosphorus, total nitrogen and conductivity.
Because this segment of French Broad has predicted DO levels in the 5 mg/1 range, no
changes or modification of the limits will be recommended this renewal period. Current
basin management plan for the French Broad states that field calibrated model will be
developed for the French Broad River form Brevard to Asheville. (See attached info on
models, etc.)
Review of instream data for the past three years shows no instream problems with DO,
lowest value reported downstream of discharge was 6 mg/1. Betsty had recommended that
downstream monitoring site should be moved upstream so as to be closer to the predicted
DO min. milepot. But problems with access to that segment of the French Broad.
No compliance violations, Ecusta has met all existing limits and monitoring requirements.

*In letter dated 2/13/95 to D. Goodrich, Ecusta stated in item 3. on p.2 that
the company addressed the issued of chlorophenolics and stated that they
"are not presently using nor have we ever used nor do we plan on using
biocides that contained chlorophenolics" therefore monitoring for
trichlorophenols and pentachlorophenol on a weekly basis was not
necessary. This same statement had been given in a 1992 letter to the
Division and Betsy did not include those substances for monitoring in the
WLA completed in 4/93, however a monitoring statement was still placed in
the NPDES permit.

French Broad Level B models
Subbasin 04-03-02: French Broad River and tributaries
The French Broad River in subbasin -02 flows from the Davidson River to Sandymush Creek, a
distance of 54 miles. This area of the French Broad basin includes Asheville and
Hendersonville, the most densely populated area of the basin. There are many discharges.
A Level C model was developed for the reach between Ecusta and HWY 64 in 1980. Data from
this model were used to update our desktop model, the Level B. EPA conducted a reaeration
study for this reach of the French Broad in November 1993. The flow was near 7Q10
conditions; a revised Level C is planned for the next basin plan. In the meantime, the Level B
will continue to be used per our SOP.
A Level B model was developed for the French Broad River from the Brevard WWTP to the
Swannanoa River. This Level B model covers 47 miles from the Brevard WWTP (2.5 mgd) to
the Buncombe MSD (40 mgd) in Asheville. Ecusta (36 mgd) is by far the dominating discharge
in this reach at over 20% instream waste concentration. The other major in this subbasin,
Brevard, is over 10 times smaller than Ecusta. Level B modeling indicates that the DO standard
should be met unless flows above Ecusta fall below the 7Q10 due to withdrawals by Ecusta.
Since there are no known DO problems on the French Broad below Ecusta, this model will
continue to be used with the standard procedures to determine permit limits for oxygen
consuming wastes until a Level C model is calibrated for the area. A study plan for the French
Broad from Brevard to Asheville will be developed.
The DO minimum is 5.66 mg/1 at milepoint 4.5.
End DO = 7.77 mg/1
End CBOD = 6.14 mg/1
End NBOD = 2.54 mg/1
c13eb/1314s
17f12
If the Buncombe MSD is added at the end of the model, a DO sag to 6.6 mg/1 approximately 20
miles below the discharge is predicted. The waste is still not fully assimilated 30 miles below
the discharge point, CBOD = 14 mg/1 and NBOD = 6.9 mg/1.
• A Level B model for Gash Creek was run to the confluence with the French Broad River a
distance of 8 miles including 3 discharges, Nicholoson MHP (0.011 mgd), Etowah WWTP
(0.125 mgd), and Henderson Housing Authoirty (0.0033 mgd). Six other facilities have
gone off line. A DO sag to 5.5 mg/1 is predicted and the wastewater is not assimilated before
reaching the French Broad River. Benthos in Gash Creek was rated poor im 1987.
The DO minimum is 5.59 mg/1 at milepoint 0.38
End DO=6.83mg/1
End CBOD = 12.05 mg/1
End NBOD = 5.26 mg/1

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Dioxin has not been detected in Ecusta's influent, effluent, or landfill leachate
since monitoring first began and fish tissue analyses show the concentration of
dioxin to be dropping overall in fish in the French Broad River. The request to
modify dioxin monitoring to coincide with the 1991 supplemental monitoring plan is
reasonable. Fish tissue analysis for dioxin, however, should be continued on an
annual basis.
Instream monitoring for temperature and dissolved oxygen should remain as they are.
Monitoring data show that downstream temperatures average 0.6 to 1.0°C higher than
upstream temperatures during average stream flow years and 1.0 to 2.0° C higher
during periods of near 7Q10 flows. The maximum deviation allowed in DEM
regulations is 2.8° C. Should the river remain at low flow conditions for extended
periods of time, stream temperatures downstream of Ecusta could increase beyond
2.8° C.
Renewal of Ecusta's NPDES permit is recommended.

Dear Mr. Goodrich:
Subject: Renewal of NPDES Permit No. NC0000078
Transylvania County
0n August 31, 1995, the above subject permit for the Ecusta Division of P. H.
Glatfelter Company expires. In preparation for this, we are submitting this
renewal application. This application consists of this letter. requesting a
renewal of our existing NPDES permit, three copies of a completed and signed
standard form C, three copies of a recently completed priority pollutant
analysis, and a processing fee of $400.
In anticipation of this renewal, the following information is submitted:
1. There has been no significant change in our existing waste water treatment
facility as described in the supplement to the cover sheet of the current
permit.
2. Paper production levels to be used are those contained in our last three
NPDES permits. .Even though we have made a number of production changes in
the last few years, our capacity is currently constrained by the
marketplace. These production rates are defined as the annual off the.
machine production divided by the number of operating days duringthe year
and was determined for each of the separate facilities that discharge into
a common waste water system. They are based on past production practices,
marketing projections, committed growth, and utilization of our current
facility.

The following production rates are related to specific manufacturing
processes:

N.I. Fine Papers
40 CFR 430.181R 430,181 pounds/day
3. Our current permit contains the requirement that trichlorophenols and
pentachlorophenol be monitored on a weekly basis if biocides containing
these compounds are used at this facility. We are not presently using,
nor have we ever used nor do we plan on using, any biocides containing
chlorophenolics.
4. Ecusta has been monitoring the temperature and dissolved oxygen level in
the French Broad River since the early 1950's. This monitoring is
conducted three times per week during the late fall, weekly during the
summer months, and once a month during the remaining part of the year.
This extensive database combined with the current monitoring that the
Division of Environmental Management is doing in various locations of the
French Broad River shows no unfavorable deviations from the dissolved
oxygen and temperature water quality criteria since this monitoring went
into effect in 1979. It is therefore requested that the dissolved oxygen
and temperature monitoring of the French Broad River be reduced to once a
week at both the upstream and downstream location during both the summer
and fall months and monthly during the remainder of the year from November
through March.
5. Part V of our current permit requires quarterly analysis of 2, 3, 7, 8 -
TCDD of the sludge landfill leachate and the final effluent, discharge
001. The attached summary of these results indicate that no 2, 3, 7, 8 -
TCDD has been found in our effluent since sampling started in 1991. Since
most of the production of this mill is made from purchased pulp, we are
very sensitive to the presence of TCDD or TCDF in this raw material. Our
pulp suppliers are required to submit regular analysis of the pulp that we
purchase from them. A summary of recent analysis for TCDD from these
suppliers is attached.
This extensive database leads to a request that this monitoring be reduced
to once every six months or made part of the supplemental monitoring plan
as described in Part V, Section B of our current permit. This plan would
trigger 2, 3, 7, 8 - TCDD monitoring only if a change of our process
occurs which could result in a potential discharge of 2, 3, 7, 8 - TCDD.
6. Part V, Section A of our current permit requires an annual fish tissue
analysis for dioxin. In the cover letter, copy attached, to our last
permit, Paragraph two specifies that "If the data from the annual fish
tissue analysis indicates there are no dioxin concerns, an alternative
monitoring schedule may be granted." Attached is the summary chart, Table
3-2, from the 1994 Fish Tissue Analysis Report to S. Tedder.

Mcusta

' PISGAH FOREST, NORTH CAROLINA 28768
These survey results indicate that the concentration of TCDD in fish
downstream of the mill has continued to decline since the first survey in
1989. This decline may be in response of changes in production processes
that have removed potential dioxin precursors from raw materials used in
our pulp and papermaking processes. On the other hand, these data do not
support the proposition that the Ecusta mill is a source of dioxin or
furan in the French Broad River. Accordingly, the decrease in
concentration of dioxin and furan may be unrelated to the mill's process
changes or purchased pulp quality because the mill may never have
contributed to the dioxin or furan level in fish.
Because of this, we request that the requirement for an annual fish tissue
survey be removed from this section and made a part of the supplemental
monitoring plan as outlined in Section B of part V. A detectable amount
of 2, 3, 7, 8 - TCDD in our effluent monitoring could also be used as a
"fish tissue survey" trigger.
I appreciate the opportunity to submit this information to you and to assure
you that we will do our utmost to assist you in developing a permit which
accomplishes our common objective of protecting our resources. I would be
pleased to meet either with you or any of your staff to discuss this matter at
a reasonable time to present such additional data as necessary to support our
position.
Sincerely,
Gus sman

Instructions
The purpose of this document and the accompanying memo is to standardize the sampling. analysis and reporting procedures to be used
for the Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring (APAM) Requirement as described it the permit.
Sampling
1 - Take a 24-hour composite sample from the final effluent during mid•week (Wednesday through Friday). Collect a grab sample for the volatile
organic fraction when collection of the 24-hour composite sample is completed. Follow any other sampling instructions provided by the laboratory
performing the analysis.
2 • Indicate in the space provided at the top of this page whether a corresponding sampie for toxicity testing was taken.
3 - Make note of any unusual wastewater treatment operating conditions occurring on the day of sampling in the space provides on the form.
Analysis
4 • Analyze the effluent for pollutants listed on the APAM form, including those to be identified and approximately quantified under the 10
significant peaks rule, using appropriate EPA -approved methods for each of the analytic fractions. Other analyticar methods car. be substitute:.
only with prior, written approval of the Director of the Division of Environmental Management (DEM). Read and distribute to the laborator:
performing the analysis the accompanying memo (Tedder, October 1990) clarifying analytical requirements.
5 - Identify chemicals to be analyzed for according to the 10 significant peaks rule (as described in item 2 of the Annual Pollutant Analysis
Monitoring Requirement in the permit) using a GC/MS library search. Tentative identification is all that is required; confirmation by standard
injection is not necessary. Estimate the concentration of each based on an internal standard having the closest retention time.
Reporting
6 - Ouantltation Limit Targets that should be met are listed on this Revised APAM Reporting Form A. Report the use of any nigher quantita-
tion limit and an explanation as to why the listed quantitation limit target could not be met. Examples of acceptable reasons for not meeting
a quantitation limit target could be high background concentrations in a sample, or the necessity for sample fraction dilution to bring a chemica;
to within a quantifiable concentration. List any quantitation limit differtent (whether higher or lower) from the target in the column provides
for this purpose. .
7 • If a chemical Is found to be below the quantitation limit, report the concentration detected as less than (or •< ') the quantitation limit
in the appropriate space. Provide a concentration estimate for chemicals detected in concentrations greater than the detection limit and less
than the quantitation limit. Enter the detection limit in parentheses beside the estimate. Chemicals detected in concentrations above the quan-
titation limits must be quantified. Quantitation limit and detection limit are defined in the accompanying memo (Tedder, October 1990). Enter
the total number of peaks detected in each analytic fraction in the appropriate space on this Revised APAM Form A. Report all concentrations
in units of micrograms per liter (ugM) and metals as total recoverable metal. If no peaks to be identified under the 10 significant peaks rule
are observed, enter "none" in the space provided for "other" compounds in each appropriate analytic fraction section. Provide the concentra-
tion estimate and retention time for "unknowns" as well as for "significant peaks" for which a structural assignment can be made.
8 • If "significant peaks" are found, provide probable molecular weight, library match probability, retention time, identification basis. and
MS scan number for each. In addition, list internal standards and their retention times.
9 - In the section labeled "Organic Analytical Information" (p. 9), include for each organic fraction the method, extraction technique. GC
operating conditions, and surrogate recovery. Report the size of the GC/MS library being utilized in the appropriate space.-
10 • Use copies of this Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring Revised Form A to report the results of the analysis. Both the analytical laboratory
representative and the facility operator in responsible charge should sign completed forms (last page).
11 • Mail two completed copies of the form (and the laboratory report. if submitted to the facility on a different form) to: ATTN: Central Files.
