Attached is a more accurate drawing of the plant flow. 1. Chlorine is rarely applied prior to settling, this injection point is a part of the original plant design. Most of the volume to the alum sludge settling beds is from draining and cleaning the settling tanks, where there is no chlorine present. 2. Fluoride is injected to the flow after the filters, none is applied directly to the settling tanks or filters. Thank you for your time, Micheal O. Morrison, Town of Madison, NC Mr. Morrison, I was out of town all last week but have heard your voice messages and read your email today. I did call back around 2:30 pm and left a voice message. I am working with David Russell from our Winston-Salem office to set up a joint site visit at Madison as well as other facilities. I will confirm the tentative time with you once I know. The answer to question one is that wherever chlorinated water passes through the filter (incoming raw water or the source water for filter backwash) it automatically becomes a candidate for TRC limits because: 1) It is understood the water treatment plant is the control and source of the chlorination. 2) The chemical residuals accumulate in the filter. 3) The residuals are flushed out with the backwash water. 4) Low levels of chlorine are toxic to aquatic life. I believe question two can be better answered as part of our site visit.

Market Street Madison., NC 27025 Town of Madison WTP NPDES Permit NC0085626 Mr. Morrison, In our phone conversation June 28, 2007 we discussed the flow schematic for the Town of Madison Water Treatment Plant that is required to complete the data for your submitted NPDES renewal application. Your concern was that we wanted a formal diagram from an engineering source. I explained that we did not need a formal engineering drawing but rather just a simple block diagram indicating the direction of each water flow 1 of 2 7/23/2007 2:13 PM RE: Second Request For Flow Schematic Madison Water Treatment Plant (raw water, backwash, treated water, effluent water) through the various treatment plant operations ( tanks, settling basins, filters, lagoons, holding ponds, clarifiers, thickening tanks, drying ponds, etc) up to the permitted outfall. The diagram should also clearly indicate where the various chemicals used in the treatment plant entered the process and indicate where the effluent sample is taken. In most cases an operator at the water treatment plant is able to sketch out a flow drawing and properly label the components that meets this requirement. Please advise when this will be completed, it is important that all the requirements of the application are met. Your assistance in completing this requirement is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions contact me by email at Ron.Berry@ncmail.net or by phone at (919) 733-5083 x.531. Sincerely, Ron Berry NCDENR NPDES Group No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.476 / Virus Database: 269.10.14/912 - Release Date: 7/22/2007 7:02 PM Mr. Morrison, The schematic you provided is excellent. I do need to clarify a few items on the schematic. 1) In the "Post Filter Chemical Injection" what chemicals are added (for example chlorine, fluoride, caustic, ammonia, etc.)? 2) What is the source of the "Backwash Water"? Is it raw water with no chemical additions or is a side stream from the incoming raw water that is already chemically treated? I assume based on the schematic the backwash water is not "Treated Water". To address you question about removing the TRC limit (chlorine) limit the actual source of the backwash is required. Therefore, question 2 above needs to be correctly defined. I received an inquiry from you plant operator along the same lines. He had an additional concern about measuring precision and how to meet the TRC limit. I pointed out the 18 months extension from the permit effective date listed in the footnote is there to allow you time to resolve these issues. My understanding from the inquiry conversation is the backwash water is a side stream that has the chemicals added. Since you were previously required to measure and report TRC in the effluent in your existing permit then I have to assume chlorine is added to the backwash water at some point. Until TRC data is measured and reported at the corrected precision level its true impact is unknown. Hopefully, your questions have been answered. If not let me know.

PHONE CONVERSATION: David Russell,Winston-Salem Regional Office, primary Madison WTP Inspector Date: July 24, 2007 8:15 AM I had left David a vm yesterday to call me to discuss Madison WTP operation in lieu of the recent information which indicated source of backwash water is post treated water. Explained the history of resolving the renewal application missing information and how we have received a flow schematic and other data. Current problem to resolve on permit draft was whether fluoride was in the backwash water source. Asked David to contact Madison WTP and confirm source of backwash water. David made contact, called back, and received confirmation that drinking water is source. Since this is the source then fluoride monitoring will need to be added. SUPPLIMENTAL INFORMATION: Discussed addition of Fluoride Monitoring to permit with Gil and Jim. Monitoring only is applicable and does not require public notice. Focus should be on collecting data for future evaluation.
