Wasteload Allocation Summary
(approach taken,correspondence with region,EPA,etc.)
Facility requesting renewal of existing NPDES permit. One of the four fluoride bearing waste
dischargers into the North Toe River.All facility permits are interdependent because total
assimulative capacity of fluoride is allocated between the four industries and all permits should be
issued at the same time per the Asheville RO.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
(**Chronic Toxicity (Ceriodaphnia) P/F at %,Feb,V'jhay,,,n,/UoV,See Part , Conditioner.)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in:
1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay
Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions.
The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality
is 1,.`0_50 (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform
quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be
performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of f Z.d It4AR ,119A
3+ A. L AJz 44 . Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at tffe NPDES
pegtted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge
Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B.
Additionally,DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management
4401 Reedy Creek Road
Raleigh, N.C. 27607-6445
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 single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will
begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will
revert to quarterly in the months specified above.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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 and will require immediate
retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute
noncompliance with monitoring requirements.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS K-T Feldspar Corporation
has requested renewal of NPDES Permit No. NC0000400 for the
continued discharge of industrial process wastewater from the
production of Feldspar at their plant near Spruce Pine, North
Carolina.
There are no effluent guidelines for this industry and the
effluent limits were developed using production and process
information and the North Carolina Water Quality Standard for
fluoride of 1.8 mg/l . There are four. companies, K-T Feldspar
Corporation, The Feldspar Corporation, Unimin Corporation-Mica
Operations and Unimin Corporation-Quartz Operations, which have
similar industrial processes and wastewater characteristics. Each
company discharges or proposes to discharge fluorides to the North
Toe River. It has been determined that there is a maximum
assimilative capacity of 574 lbs/day of fluoride in the North Toe
River at the mouth of Little Bear Creek, which is the most
downstream point fluoride is discharged. All four Permits are
interdependent on each other because the total assimilative
capacity of the fluoride is allocated between the four industries
and all permits should be issued at the same time.
Because of existing agreements between the four companies and the
Division of Environmental Management, Unimin Corporation-Mica
Operations, is now proposing to construct industrial processes
which will utilize fluoride in the process. This agreement was
developed for the existing permits based on different operational
plans each company had proposed. With Unimin Corporation-Mica
Operations exercising its option, Configuration IV, in the
existing NPDES Permits will now become the effluent limitations.
Effluent limitations and the development of these limits are
listed in the draft permit and fact sheet, respectively.
It is recommended that the permit be issued.
