Subject: NPDES Permitting Guidance
NPDES Implementation of Ammonia Criteria- Update
secremry
S. JAY ZIMMERMAN
Director
NC has still not adopted an ammonia standard, though it is on our WQS Triennial List for next
round. NC did establish ammonia chronic criteria for use in NPDES permitting back in 1989/90,
which was based on EPA's 1986 criteria development document that factored in pH/Temp across
three regions of the State (see attached). This evaluation resulted in ammonia chronic criteria of
1.0 mg/1 NH3-N (summer) and 1.8 mg/1 NH3-N (winter) for use in permitting purposes. NC
implements these chronic criteria as Monthly Averages limits utilizing instream dilution. In
2002, NC developed procedures for complimentary acute permit limits (discussed below).
The current ammonia permitting procedures should be as follows:
• The NH3/TRC Wasteload Allocation (WLA) spreadsheet automatically calculates
appropriate ammonia Monthly Average limits for summer and winter. The spreadsheet
assumes a background ammonia concentration of 0.22 mg/1.
• For any permit (new/renewal), always run the NH3/TRC WLA spreadsheet to verify
appropriate Monthly Average Ammonia Limits for protection of aquatic life.
• If the allowable ammonia concentration is greater than 35 mg/1, no limit should be
imposed.
• If the allowable concentration is less than 35 mg/1, then the allowable limit is needed and
the spreadsheet will automatically calculate it.
• For Municipal facilities, the acute limit will be expressed as a Weekly Average, and is
based on multiplying the Monthly Average limit by a factor of 3.
• For non -Municipal facilities, the acute limit will be expressed as a Daily Maximum, and
is based on multiplying the Monthly Average limit by a factor of 5.
• If a new more stringent ammonia limit is required, discuss the need for a Compliance
Schedule with senior staff and then with the Permittee.
• There is no RPA procedure used for ammonia; it is implemented strictly based on WLA
spreadsheet results (similar to TRC).

• A sample NH3/TRC WLA is attached. In this example, the spreadsheet indicates that
Monthly Average ammonia limits of 3.2 mg/1 and 12.7 mg/1 should be imposed for
summer and winter, respectively, in order to protect for NC's chronic ammonia criteria.
Some additional considerations:
• This guidance will need to be revisited after NC formally adopts an ammonia standard for
both chronic and acute aquatic life protection.
• In the past, some ammonia limits were based strictly on protection of our DO standard
rather than ammonia toxicity, and that is why the permit writer should always verify the
correct ammonia limit with any permit renewal using the WLA spreadsheet.
• In the past, some practices allowed for maintaining a less stringent ammonia limit if the
facility was consistently passing the WET test (i.e., biology trumps chemistry). This is
no longer a valid approach and EPA would object. In April 2016 EPA expressly stated
that NC cannot use biology to override chemical results. EPA also disallowed the use of
Action Levels in permitting, in which toxicity test results (if passing) were used to
override the need for permit limits for copper/zinc/silver/iron/chloride.

• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (ail
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:

If a permittee 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. See "How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
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.
Starting on December 21, 2020, the permittee must electronically report the
following compliance monitoring data and reports, when applicable:
• Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
• Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
• Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.

The permittee may seek an electronic reporting waiver from the Division (see "How to
Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below).
2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1) (9), the permittee must identify the initial
recipient at the time of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the
EPA's website resources to identify the initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES -regulated facilities
means the entity (EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES
program) that is the designated entity for re-ei,,,ing electronic NPDES data [see 40
CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic
reporting tool for each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions
on how to access and use the appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as
well. Information on EPA's NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule is found at:
http: / /www2.epa.gov/compliance/final-national-pollutant-discharge-elimination-
system-npdes-electronic-reporting-rule.
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting
Requirements" section above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To
obtain an electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic
reporting waiver request to the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting
waivers 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 submitting monitoring data and reports. The duration of a temporary waiver
shall not exceed 5 years and shall thereupon expire. At such time, monitoring data
and reports shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re-
applies for and is granted a new temporary electronic reporting waiver by the
Division. Approved electronic reporting waivers are not transferrable. Only
permittees with an approved reporting waiver request may submit monitoring data
and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the approved reporting waiver
request is effective.
Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver
are found on the following web page:

system shall make the following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER
STATEMENTS OF CERTIFICATION WILL BE ACCEPTED:
"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared
under my direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that
qualified personnel properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on
my inquiry of the person or 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."
5. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.)1
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including
eDMR submissions. These records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at
least 3 years from the date of the report. This period may be extended by request of
the Director at any time [40 CFR 122.41].

Hi Charles,
Hope it's not too late to send a quick comment on these.
For NC0060542 (Gold Hill):
I see on the draft letter you mention a need to obtain approval before restarting the facility. Will this also be stated on
the permit? George noted some maintenance issues during a site visit in February (no electric, sand filter overgrown,
stream bank and bed severely eroded and obstructed) and recommended the permit be rescinded.
For NC0037001 (Bethany Elementary) — no comments.
Thank you,

Comments on Draft Permit
Added eDMR requirements
Added regulatory citations
Most Commonly Used Expedited Language:
• 303(d) language for Draft/Final Cover Letters: "Please note that Cane Creek is listed
as an impaired waterbody on the North Carolina 303(d) Impaired Waters List.
Addressing impaired waters is a high priority with the Division, and instream data will
continue to be evaluated. If there is noncompliance with this permit's effluent limits and
stream impairment can be attributed to your facility, then mitigative measures may be
required".
