The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's
Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to your NPDES

A. (2.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[G. S . 143-215.1(b)]
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs)
and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must

Beginning no later than 270 days from the effective date of this permit, the permittee shall report
discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring
Report (eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter
monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state's
eDMR application is compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic Reporting Regulation
(CROMERR), permittees will be required to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state
electronically using eDMR and will be required to complete the eDMR submission by printing,
signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of the computer printed eDMR to the
following address:
NC DEQ / DWR / Infolination Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a,peilnittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the
facility being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have
broadband access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may
be granted and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3)
or alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the
mailing address above.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be
submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the
facility would be required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be
valid for twelve (12) months and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted
Page 4 of 5

NPDES Permit NC0066362
electronically to the Division unless the permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary
waiver by the Division.
Infotination on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following web page:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/admin/bog/ipu/edmr
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due on the last day of the month following
the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the
commencement of discharge.
2. Signatory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and supersedes Section B. (11.) (d)1
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described in Part
II, Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II,
Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be delegated signatory authority for eDMR
reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an eDMR user
account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more information on North
Carolina's eDMR system, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit

"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared under my

persons who manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for gathering the
information, the information submitted is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate,
and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting false information,
including the possibility of fines and imprisonment for knowing violations."
3. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.)1
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including eDMR submissions.

Toxicity — Not required
Renewal Summary — This permit reflects discharge at Outfall 001. DWR updated the following:
• updated the facility description (see supplement to cover sheet) and map
• updated parameter codes in Section A. (1.)
• added Electronic Reporting - Discharge Monitoring Reports page [Section A. (2.)].
Stream — Discharge from Benson Apartments WWTP for outfall 001 is into an unnamed tributary to Mud
Creek [Stream Segment 6-55]. The segment is listed as impaired supporting in the 2014 North Carolina
303(d) List for Fish Tissue Mercury, Benthos Fair and Fish Community.
RPA — A Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) was not applicable for any parameters for this permit
renewal.
Implementation of 2012 Statewide Mercury TMDL — Benson Apartments WWTP was not required to
sample for mercury in the previous permit. Monitoring for Mercury is not required for this permit because it
does not serve a municipality. The renewal application indicated "other" for the facility generating
wastewater and "separate (sanitary sewer only)" for type of collection system. The WWTP serves Benson
Apartments with 25 units (62 residents). The facility does not serve any industries or dental offices. Stream
Segment 6-55 is impaired for Fish Tissue Mercury.
