mended conditions to the

(1) In addition to the parameters in NCG120000, sample each SDO semi-annually for
conductivity, pH, arsenic (As), selenium (Se),and boron (B). No benchmarks
apply; however, concentrations above the levels in Footnote 5 should be noted on
the Stormwater'Outfall Data Monitoring Reports (SDMRs) submitted to NC DENR.

These additional parameters include metals and other constituents which may be
present in Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) wastewater used to condition the coal combustion
residue (CCR) transported to the monofill. These sample results will provide a baseline for
stormwater discharges when the monofill has just begun operation and a comparison after
three years of operation. The Division will consider the data upon renewal of coverage
under this General Permit.
The facility may request `Representative Outfall Status" for one or more outfalls at
the mono -fill so flhat fewer outff4f,; must be sampled. Please see Footnote 3 to Table 1 in the
amended COC. A form for an ROS Request can be found on our website at
http://12ortal.ncdenr.org-lweb/Jr/npdes-stormwater (on the "Miscellaneous Forms" tab).
We request that you provide copies of in -stream monitoring results per the
approved Water Quality Monitoring Plan (WQMP) required by the Solid Waste Permit
for this monofill site to the Raleigh Regional Office. Copies of these results should be sent
to the attention of Dave Parnell in the NC DEMLR Stormwater Permitting Program.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which
may be required by the Division of Energy, Mining, and Land Resources, or permits
required by the Division of Water Resources, Coastal Area Management Act, or any other
federal or local governmental permit that may be required. If the conditions as stipulated
in the COC are unacceptable to you, you may apply for an individual NPDES stormwater
permit.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Bradley Bennett at
telephone number (919) 807-6378, or Bethany Georgoulias at telephone number (919)
807-6372.
Sincerely,

2 `Sample collection must begin within the first30 minutes of discharge and continue to all outfalls until
completed.
3 Sample Location: Samples`shall be collected at each,stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless
representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted by NC Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land
Resources (DEMUR). A copy of the DEMLR letter granting ROS must be kept on site. DEMLR's ROS letter
remains,in effect.through the subsequent,reissuance of this permit and as long as the pertinent site
conditions, and operations remain unchanged, unless the ROS letter provides for other conditions or
duration.
4 For-each,sanipled measureable storm�event the total precipitation must he recorded from an on-site rain
gauge. C here isolated sites are unmannedfor extended periods, a local rain_ gauge reading may be,
substituted "o an ori-s,te gauge., Upon prior DEAILR written approval.)
5 No benchmark applies for'these parameters. However, levels above 0.34 mg/l As, 0.056 mg/1,Se, or
,outside a pH range of'6.q-9.0 S.0 should be noted on the Stormwater Data,Monitoring Report (SDMR)
