Subject: Colonial Pipeline Company's letter dated
September 3, 1991, requesting Permit changes, NPDES Permit
No. NC0031046, for the Greensboro Tank Farm, Guilford County
The WSRO comments follow and are listed in the order
shown by Mr. Sisk's letter:
Part I.A. Sampling Location
1.We are pleased to hear that they wish to include
the on -site lakes as part of their treatment system.
Colonial lakes are fed in part by eight(8) other
terminal's discharges and surface runoff.
Several years ago this Office tried to get Colonial
to monitor all parameters at the influent to their
upper pond and the effluent from the lower
pond(compliance would be determined by differences).
They were unwilling to install suitable flow
measurement devices because of costs. Merely calling
the lakes sediment ponds and the effluent
from the lower lake to be representative would not
provide information as to which Outfall or Outfalls
is/are creating the problem and problems could be
blamed on the multitude of upstream contributors.
It is our belief that the ponds are for fire
protection and major spill control. It is unclear how
compliance will be judged. We do not recommend the
change.
2. Flow Measurement at Outfall 006
WSRO thought that flow from No.006 would be measured
at the tank being tested(staff gage or other gage at
the tank). Sampling would also be done at the tank.
Other terminals understand the process and follow it.
They claim to have hard piping to each tank.
3. Effluent Limitations at Outfall 006.
The discharge of hydrostatic test water is
controlled by the phenol level(lbs./day).
Page 2 of
September 20, 1991
Colonial Pipeline
Colonial is expected to have phenol results in hand
before any discharges are started(each day's discharge
is a new situation. Only when the phenol level is
< or = 1.0 ug/1 could they dump the test water in at.
the rates they suggest. The total site limit is only
.001 lbs./day(all discharges). At 2.0 ug/1 they could
dump.059 MGD; and at 1.0 ug/1 +, they could dump
0.120 MGD. They don't seem to understand that the
Phenol limit controls the daily discharge flow rate
not their proposed flow rates. They should not be
given flow limits when they may conflict with other
limits. The hydrocarbon tests should be per Technical
Support's input.
Part III.E Oil Terminal Condition
1.Renaming facility in the permit should be done.
Part III.F.4 Organics/Lead Testing Requirement
1. We will accept Technical Support's input.
Comment: This Office wouldn't object to the combining
of Colonial's discharges along with flow measurement
and recording, oil/water separation, air stripping,
carbon absorption, and with storage and testing done
before release.

Re: Draft NPDES Permit No. NC0031046
Greensboro Junction Tank Farm
Guilford County

Dear Mr. Overcash:
Colonial Pipeline Company has reviewed the above mentioned draft
permit renewal and submits the following comments.
Part I.A Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements
Sampling Location
"During the period beginning on the effective date of the
permit and lasting until expiration, the Permittee is
authorized to discharge from outfall(s) serial numbers 001,
002, 003, 004, 005, and 006. Such discharges shall be limited
and monitored by the permittee as specified..."
Comments
Since Colonial's main lake acts as a settling basin for
suspended particulates in our wastestreams, Colonial considers
its main lake to be part of its treatment works. Therefore,
Colonial requests that the monitoring point for Total
Suspended Solids and Turbidity samples be moved from each
individual outfall to a point below the discharge of the main
lake.

Flow Measurement at Outfall 006
clA
-o
"Flow shall be monitored from each outfall during every
rainfall event that results in a discharge"
Comments
Colonial's Outfall 006 is located at the water supply inlet
for the facility underground fire protection piping system.
Rainfall will not cause a discharge at this outfall. Colonial
plans to discharge hydrotest water through this outfall and
requests that flow be monitored at this outfall only during
the discharge of hydrotest water.
Effluent Limitations at Outfall 006
"Permittee is authorized to discharge from Outfall 006...
discharges shall be limited and monitored as specified below.
Benzene
Toluene
Ethylbenzene
Comments
2.3 ug/1
12.0 ug/1

Daily Maximum"
In Colonial's permit renewal application, an estimate of 0.72
MGD was given for the hydrotest water flow rate. Assuming
that the above mentioned limits were established using the
0.72 MGD flow rate, Colonial requests that these limits be
increased for hydrotest water discharges of <0.72 MGD.
Colonial proposes that a sliding scale be established with
effluent limits set for each 0.1 MGD increment up to 0.72 MGD.
Part III.E Oil Terminal Condition
Comment
Colonial requests that the title of this section be changed to
read " Oil Terminal and Petroleum Transportation Related
Facility" Condition. This change is requested to clarify that
pipeline facilities are included in this section.
Colonial Pipelisrie Company
Mr. Dale Overcash
September 3, 1991
Page 3
Part III.F.4 Organics/Lead Testing Requirement
"Once per year, monitor for BTEX Compounds... Also monitor for
the following compounds using an EPA -approved method: MTBE,
EDB, 1,2-dichloroethane, naphthalene, isopropyl -ether, and
lead."
Comments
Lead is no longer a significant constituent of the refined
petroleum products transported by Colonial. Therefore,
Colonial requests that it along with the lead scavengers EDB
and 1,2--dichloroethane be deleted from the monitoring
requirements. Colonial also requests that isopropyl -ether be
removed from the monitoring requirements. BTEX and MTBE serve
as adequate indicator parameters for petroleum contamination.
Should you wish to discuss these comments, please contact me at
404/841-2491 or at the mailing address on the letterhead.

COMMENTS
The following products are stored: petroleum products.
No other products are to be stored without modification of this permit.
Discharge is to holding pond which drains to E. Fork Deep River.
All volumes of wastewater leaving the facility must be monitored. If
continuous monitoring is not feasible, then discharger shall record the
approximate times that discharge began and ended, along with the
instantaneous flow at the time of effluent sampling.
Once per year, monitor for benzene, toulene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes using
an EPA approved method to a detection level of 1 ug/1. Also monitor for the
following compounds using an EPA approved method: EDB, MTBE (methyl
tert-butyl ether), 1,2 dichloroethane, napthalene, isoproply ether and lead.
Monitoring and toxicity testing should occur on same schedule. Monitoring
and toxicity samples should be taken within 24 hrs of the beginning
of discharge. A reopener clause should be placed in the permit to allow for
limits to be placed on toxicants should the facility's whole effluent
toxicity monitoring indicate unacceptable toxic effects.

Proposed Treatment Works for Proposed
Hydrostatic Pressure Test Water Discharge
Hydrostatic pressure testing is a test conducted to determine the integrity of
a storage vessel or pipeline. For pipelines, the test involves the injection of
water into an isolated section of the pipeline to achieve the desired test
pressure and holding the pipeline at that pressure for a specified time frame.
For storage vessels, the test involves filling the vessel with water and allowing
it to stand for a specified time frame. These tests are infrequent and do not
occur at any specified frequency.
Hydrostatic pressure test water discharges are intermittent and theThe
duration of these discharges will depend upon one or more of following:
the length and diameter of the pipeline segment tested
the terrain along the pipeline segment to be tested
the volume of the storage vessel tested
the volume of water which requires treatment
the size of the treatment work selected
operational and storage constraints
Water samples will be collected during the initial line fill of the segment being
tested to determine the treatment requirements for the test the water

ACUTE TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT
Fathead Minnow 24 hr - Monitoring (Annual)
The permittee shall conduct annual acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in
E.P.A. Document 600/4-85/013 entitled "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms". The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a single grab sample. Effluent samples
for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste treatment. Sampling and
subsequent testing will occur during the first discrete discharge event after the effective date of this
permit. The permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January
of the next calendar year. The annual test requirement must be performed and reported by
September 30. If no discharge occurs by September 30, notification will be made to the Division
by this date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test
requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form. AT-1. (original) is
to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
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.
r +,
Should any test data from either these monitoring requirements 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.
Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

NPDES Permit No. NC0031046
Renewal and Change Request by
Colonial Pipeline Company received by
Permits and Engineering on October 8,
1990, Guilford County
Nov 0 8 1990
These requests as received on October 19th and 26th,
1990, by the WSRO are incomplete and the WSRO is hereby
returning the information to your group until the requests
are properly submitted by Colonial including separate
requests for each type of project covered. They appear to
be wanting to dump all wastestreams, whenever they desire,as
though the wastewater comes from the same process. We
believe that they will require Permits as described in the
following:
1. The presently permitted surface rain water run-off
via oil/water separators 001, 002, 003, 004 and 005
plus upstream and downstream monitoring. WSRO has no
objection to this NPDES Permit No. NC0031046 renewal.
2. Each groundwater remediation event should have a
separate combined GWQ and WQ Permit. These projects
could be caused by gasoline, oil, both, or other
products and a blanket Permit is not appropriate.
3. Treated tank bottom water from oil or gasoline
tanks may or may not be able to be discharged; but if
discharged, it should be under separate permits.
Colonial has decided that the current treatment and
spray irrigation operations, Permit No. 4205R2, can no
longer be used. They want to put this wastewater,
after only carbon treatment into a water supply stream
rather than on the ground.
Dale Overcash
Page 2
November 5, 1990
4. Hydrostatic pressure water could probably be
discharged using a special NPDES Permit. It might also
be discharged through the current oil/water separators,
provided that the test water source is City water (not
lake or groundwater), and that it is discharged within
the NPDES limits for the rain water run-off.
Both Perry D. Sisk and Tom Kelly (404-841-2491 with
Colonial Pipeline have been contacted in their Atlanta Office
and they apparently are merely wanting us to give them a
multiple use permit. After the Permit, they'll figure out
what to do next.
I verbally told them they need to file a complete
permit package for each type of discharge. Jule Shanklin
has also asked for multiple Permits and data.
I was told that Colonial has ceased their spray
irrigation operations, because of new EPA toxics
requirement. GWQ may have been notified but WQ may not have
been notified.
They plan on continuing to land farm oil tank bottoms
using Permit No. 7923R2. Bottoms from gasoline tanks are
considered toxic and will continue to be handled
differently.
After Colonial has made proper applications for the
needed permits, please send this Office copies of all
applications and the in-depth information regarding the
operation so that we may prepare needed Staff Reports.

Discharge is to holding pond which drains to E. Fork Deep River.
All volumes of wastewater leaving the facility must be monitored. If
continuous monitoring is not feasible, then discharger shall record the
approximate times that discharge began and ended, along with the
instantaneous flow at the time of effluent sampling.
Monitor for benzene, toulene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes using an EPA approved
method to a detection level of 1 ug/1. Also monitor for the following
compounds using an EPA approved method: EDB (dibromoethane), MTBE (methyl
tert-butyl ether), 1,2 dichloroethane, napthalene, isoproply ether and lead.
Monitoring should occur on same schedule as the toxicity testing, i.e.,
annually. Monitoring and toxicity
samples should be taken at the same time within 24 hrs of the beginning
of discharge. A reopener clause should be placed in the permit to allow for
limits to be placed on toxicants should the facility's whole effluent
toxicity monitoring indicate unacceptable toxic effects.

Flow Rate Estimations for
Greensboro Junction Tank Farm
Storm Water Runoff
Available measure effluent flow rates (4/90 - 8/90) were used to estimate the
maximum daily stormwater runoff flow rates for Effluents 001-005. The maximum
daily flow rate observed was for the month of April 1990.
Effluent Flow (gal/day)
001 19,488
002 2,462
003 1,281
004 11,712
005 2.858
Total 37,801
Pressure Test Water (50,
1741-1-1
Maximum flow rate estimates for this proposed discharge were based upon the
following assumptions:
- hydrostatic pressure test of 32" diameter pipeline from
Greensboro, North Carolina to Columbia, Virginia
- water required for testing: 850,000 bbls
treatment required for all pressure test water
- 500 gallon per minute activated carbon treatment unit
The proposed pressure test water discharge will be infrequent and intermittent.
Based upon the assumptions listed above, the 550 gal/min activated carbon unit
would have a discharge rate of 720,000 gal/day. The duration of the discharge
of pressure test water at this rate would be approximately 50 days.
The actual rate and duration of flow will vary based upon the size of the carbon
unit selected, the percentage of test water requiring treatment, and other
operational constraints (see attachment). Since this information cannot be
obtained prior to testing, the 720,000 gal/day flow rate was used for this permit
application.
Total Maximum Flow Rate per Day
Total Maximum Flow Rate - Stormwater Runoff + Pressure Test (gat/Discharge

Stormwater runoff from a gasoline tank farm. Outfalls 001, 002,
003, 004, and 005. Treatment at each outfall is by oil/water separator.
Discharge is to a drainage channel to a storm drain which drains to E. Fork
Deep River. Standard permit limits for petroleum storage apply. Since the
discharge is to a water supply, a phenols limit of 0.001 lbs/day is
required of the facility. * The phenols discharge from all 6 (including
outfall 006) shall not exceed 0.001 lbs/day.

ACUTE TOXICITY TESTING REQUIREMENT
Fathead Minnow 24 hr - Monitoring (Annual)
The permittee shall conduct annual acute toxicity tests using protocols defined as definitive in
E.P.A. Document 600/4-85/013 entitled "The Acute Toxicity of Effluents to Freshwater and
Marine Organisms". The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales
promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a single grab sample. Effluent samples
for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained below all waste treatment. Sampling and
subsequent testing will occur during the first discrete discharge event after the effective date of this
permit. The permittee will conduct one test annually, with the annual period beginning in January
of the next calendar year. The annual test requirement must be performed and reported by
September 30. If no discharge occurs by September 30, notification will be made to the Division
by this date. Toxicity testing will be performed on the next discharge event for the annual test
requirement.
The parameter code for this test is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is
to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
P.O. Box 27687
Raleigh, N.C. 27611
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 test data from either these monitoring requirements 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.
Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

Tank bottom sludges are collected and land applied per
DEM non -discharge Permit No. 7923R2. Hazardous wastes
are picked up and properly handled by contractors.
6. Treatment plant classification: Class I
7. SIC Code 5171
Wastewater Code(s) 37 and 39
PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION
1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction
Grants Funds (municipals only)? No
2. Special monitoring requests: The total phenol daily
discharge limits of .001 lbs/day may be applied to any
one discharge point or to the sum of all points
discharging on a given day. Hydrostatic test waters
shall be analyzed before and after tank testing and the
test water must be discharged within Permit limits.
3. Additional effluent limits requests: Colonial should
continue to report phenol concentration in ug/1 and in
lbs./day.
4. Other: At this point, the only discharges that should
be covered by a new NPDES Permit are the Discharge
Points 001 through 006. The waters discharged should
only include the waters described in Par + II, 4.
Hydrostatic test waters from pipeline tests, tank
bottom waters, spill remediation waters, or other
wastewaters should not be discharged at this location
until suitable permit changes and treatment systems are
approved and constructed.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The WSRO recommends the reissuance of a Permit to
include the intermittent stormwater discharge discharges,
natural subsurface drainages, and tank hydrostatic test
water. If Colonial wants to add new treatment systems and
additions to the Permit, the Permit should go to public
notice. DHS and the City of High Point should be allowed to
comment on the changes and a full DEM review should be done.
