Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Town of Bailey violated the terms, conditions or requirements of NPDES WW Permit No. NCG590002 and G.S. 143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner and extent shown in Attachment A. In accordance with the maximums established by G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2), a civil penalty may be assessed against any person who violates the terms, conditions or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1(a). -,Skjp: North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Water Resources Ralelpl,Regional Office 1MOO Darren Drive I RalelphNorthCardna27609 919.791A20O n ■ • :r ■ ■ ■ • • 1 • ■ — • • c ■ ■ ■ • ■ n ■ • Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, and in accordance with authority provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Director of the Division of Water Resources, I, Scott Vinson, Regional Supervisor, Raleigh Regional Office hereby make the following civil penalty assessment against Town of Bailey: $25.00 for 1 of the 1 failure to properly monitor Hardness, Total (as CaCO3) in violation of Permit No. NCG590002. $25.00 for 1 of the 1 failure to properly monitor Nitrogen, Total - Concentration in violation of Permit No. NCG590002. $25.00 for 1 of the 1 failure to properly monitor Phosphorus, Total (as P) - Concentration in violation of Permit No. NCG590002. $75.00 TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY $36.57 Enforcement Costs $111.57 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are: (1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property resulting from the violation; (2) The duration and gravity of the violation; (3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality; (4) The cost of rectifying the damage; (5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance; (6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally; (7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and (8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following: (1) Submit payment of the penalty, OR (2) Submit a written request for remission, OR (3) Submit a written request for an administrative hearing Option 1: Submit payment of the penalty: Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environmental Quality (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the attention of: Wastewater Branch Division of Water Resources 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Option 2: Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification for such request: Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted and submit it to the Division of Water Resources at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered: (I) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) was wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner; (2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation; (3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident; (4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or (5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions. Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The Director of the Division of Water Resources will review your evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for remission. In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Resources also requests that you complete and submit the enclosed "Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should be submitted to the following address: Wastewater Branch Division of Water Resources 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Option 3: File a petition for an administrative hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings: If you wish to contest any statement in the attached assessment document, you must file a petition for an administrative hearing. You may obtain the petition form from the Office of Administrative Hearings. You must file the petition with the Office of Administrative Hearings within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice.

Please be advised that additional penalties may be assessed for violations that occur after the review period of this assessment.

TRC: Limit and monitoring requirements only apply if the facility adds chlorine or chlorine derivatives to water that is eventually discharged. The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 }rg/L to be in compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 jag/L. 6. Turbidity: The Turbidity Daily Maximum effluent limit is 10 NTU for Trout waters and 25 NTU for Lakes and Reservoirs not designated as trout waters. 7. Total Aluminum. This requirement applies only to wastewater discharges from plants that use an aluminum -based coagulant. 8. Total Zinc: This requirement applies only to wastewater discharges from plants that use backwash water treated with zinc orthophosphate. 9. Total Fluoride: This requirement applies only to wastewater discharges from plants that backwash with fluoridated finished water. 10. Total Manganese: This requirement applies only to wastewater discharges into water supply (WS) waters. 11. Ammonia Nitrogen: This requirement applies only to wastewater discharges from plants that use water treated with chloramines (add ammonia to chlorinated water) for backwasbing. 12. TN & TP shall be monitored by facilities discharging to NSW waters or facilities with a discharge flow >_ 0.05 MGD. TN = TKN + NO3-N + NO2-N, where TKN is Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen and NO3-N + NOz N are Nitrate and Nitrite Nitrogen, respectively. 13. Effluent hardness sampling should be performed in conjunction with testing for hardness dependent metals (cadmium, copper, lead, nickel, silver, and zinc). 14. The Permittee shall sample instream hardness, upstream of the facility's discharge. The sample shall be representative of the hardness in the receiving stream. If the Permittee is a member of the Monitoring Coalition Program, sampling for instream hardness may be waived as long as the Monitoring coalition agrees to sample hardness at the nearest upstream location, at a minimum frequency of quarterly, and the Permittee has obtained approval from DWR-NPDES Permitting Unit that the upstream station being monitored by the Coalition is representative of the receiving stream for this discharge. The Permittee is responsible for submitting instream hardness test results with its permit renewal application package. If Coalition membership is cancelled or the Coalition terminates instream hardness sampling at the approved station, the Permittee will immediately notify the Division and resume sampling for instream hardness, upstream of its discharge. 15. If sampling upstream is not feasible, a waiver for the upstream hardness sampling may be requested by the perrnittee from DWR. 16. Whole Effluent Toxicity testing shall be performed once per calendar year. See Section D. SAMPLES SHALL BE TAKEN AT THE OUTFALL BUT PRIOR TO MIXING WITH THE RECEIVING WATERS. THERE SHALL BE NO DISCHARGE OF FLOATING SOLIDS OR FOAM IN OTHER THAN TRACE AMOUNTS.
