Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NC0046809
Pentecostal Holiness Church WWTP
Guilford County
Dear Mr. McGhee:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly,
we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
Please note that your facility discharges to a nutrient -sensitive water (NSW). In 1997 the Clean Water
Responsibility Act (House Bill 515) was enacted, with the intent to strengthen the control of nutrients from all
discharges to NSW waters. Facilities permitted to discharge greater than 500,000 gallons per day (and any new or
expanding facilities) will be subject to nutrient limitations for total nitrogen and total phosphorus according to House
Bill 515 requirements. Since modifications to treatment systems are expensive and time consuming, it is highly
recommended that you begin planning for this possibility now if a future expansion is anticipated at your facility.
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you,
you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this
letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina
General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North
Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain
other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land
Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be
required. If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Charles Weaver at telephone number (919)
733-5083, extension 511.

Permit NC0046809
A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to
Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 31
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North
Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or
"North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or
subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August & November. Effluent
sampling for this testing 'shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment
processes.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit
limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as
described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998)
or subsequent versions.
The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest
concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does
have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection
methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic
Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge
Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the
pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the
following address:
NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Branch
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later than 30
days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all
concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature.
Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for
disinfection of the waste stream.
Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the
permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the
facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No
Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the
address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be
required during the following month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality 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, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an
invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month
following the month of the initial monitoring.

Subject: NPDES Permit Modification
Permit NC0046809
Pentecostal Holiness Church
Guilford County
Dear Mr. McGee:
The Division is beginning the cycle of permit renewals for the Cape Fear river basin. An examination of the Cape
Fear basin plan and the NPDES permit schedule has revealed that the existing expiration dates in Cape Fear NPDES
permits do not coincide with the revised permit expiration dates for the basin. This discrepancy could create unnecessary
delays in the processing of over 200 permit renewals. Accordingly, the Division is changing the permit expiration dates for
NPDES permits in the Cape Fear river basin.
This permit modification changes the expiration date of the subject permit in subbasin 30601 to April 30, 2001.
Please find enclosed the revised permit cover page. Insert the new cover page into your permit and discard the old page.
All other terms and conditions contained in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. This permit
modification is issued under the requirements of North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between North Carolina and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency.
In accordance with the modification of the permit expiration date, the new due date for your renewal application is
November 1, 2000. Renewal application forms will be sent to you approximately 6-8 weeks in advance of the new due
date or you may download the forms from the NPDES web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/NPDES/documents.html.
You will need to download Short Form D. If you have already submitted a permit renewal form, there is no need to
submit any other forms to the Division; the application will be processed during the renewal period for your subbasin.
If any part of this permit modification are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon
written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be a written petition conforming
to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail
Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
If you have any questions concerning this permit modification, please contact Natalie Sierra at (919) 733-5083,
extension 551.
