PPG Industries Fiber Glass Products, Incorporated Permit No. NC0004685 SUPPLEMENT TO EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS SPECIAL CONDITIONS A. (3) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised November 1995, or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 33% (defined as treatment two in the procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted 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, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Water Quality 4401 Reedy Creek Rd. Raleigh, N.C. 27607 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 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 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 the Permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, 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 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.

Applicant Address: 940 Washburn Switch Road, Shelby, NC Facility Address: 940 Washburn Switch Road, Shelby, NC Permitted Flow 1.5 MGD Type of Waste: 95% Industrial. 5% Domestic Facility/Permit Status: Existing renewal without expansion County: Cleveland Stream Characteristics Receiving Stream Brushy Creek (001) and Overflow Branch (002) Stream Classification C Subbasin 05-08-04 Drainage Area (mi2): 15.1 Summer 7Q10 (cfs) 4.0 Winter 7010 (cfs): 7.6 Average Flow (cfs): 21.0 IWC (%) @ 5.0 MGD: 133 Miscellaneous Regional Office: Moorseville USGS Topo Quad: F12SE Permit Writer: Mark McIntire Date July 20, 1998 Background PPG Industries Fiber Glass Products, Inc. (f/k/a PPG Industries, Inc.) operates a fiberglass fiber manufacturing facility in Shelby, NC. The Shelby plant currently concentrates the bulk of its fiberglass manufacturing on the reinforced plastics market. Manufacturing begins with glass raw materials including limestone, silica, boron, clay and fluorspar. These raw materials are blended in powder form and added to melt furnaces. The batch melt furnaces, operating at 2800°F, transform the batch into molten glass. The molten glass is then drawn from the furnaces through electrically heated platinum bushings into continuous fibers. These fibers are gathered into strands and either spooled or chopped into specified lengths. Water sprays cool the glass and keep strand contact points clean during the winding process. A "binder", which is water based, is applied to the individual fibers as they are drawn from the furnaces before being gathered into strands. The binder is a proprietary mixture of resins, film formers, lubricants, surfactants and coupling agents emulsified in a water base. The majority of the wastewater treated by the treatment plant is spray water, lost binder and cleaning water. Additional wastewater is received from Azdel, Inc. Azdel is a PPG joint venture with GE and produces a fiber glass reinforced polypropylene sheet material that is sold to molders. This is considered a plastics laminating process and is cover under 40 CFR 463. The manufacturing process is dry, so that the wastewater sent to PPG is either cooling water, cleaning water or domestic wastewater. Therefore, no allocation based on 463 is proposed. Wasteload Allocation Summary This permit was first issued on May 31, 1978. The permit was summarily adjudicated. It is not entirely evident why the permit was adjudicated, however a review of historical files seems to indicate that the adjudication was filed because of a disagreement with limit development. At issuance, final effluent limitations were based on 40 CFR 410.52, Subpart C: Textile Dry Processing. While the permit was being adjudicated, interim limits were established based on the results of a field calibrated water quality model. Upon resolution of the adjudication (it was determined that textile guidelines did not apply to PPG's discharge), the permit was reissued in August of 1979 with water -quality limitations based on the results of the model. This original series of wasteload allocations was based on a discharge flow of 0.875 MGD. The permit was renewed in 1985 with a change in allocation, however the reason for the change is not evidenced in the files. In 1988, Jackie Nowell completed a wasteload allocation for this facility at an expanded flow of 1.3 MGD. The increase in flow was based on process modifications in the manufacturing facility. Jackie evaluated PPG's discharge with a level B model and developed appropriate water quality -based limitations for BODS and NH,,-N. The current effluent limitations for BOD5 and NH3-N are based on the level B model run in 1988, while the current TSS limits are BPJ, apparently based on the BOD5 limits developed as resolution to the 1978/79 adjudication. Extensive research was conducted to determine if any federal guidelines exist for such a manufacturing operation. Lacy Ballard of PPG was contacted for a detailed description of the manufacturing process and associated end products. Don Anderson and Hugh Wise were contacted at EPA in D.C. regarding the applicability of textile and glass guidelines. After my conversations with both, I determined that neither set of guidelines applies to PPG's process. As stated earlier, PPG does accept wastewater from Azdel, Inc. Azdel's operation falls under the authority of 40 CFR 463, Plastics Laminating. However, manufacturing at Azdel is a dry process. Azdel's wastewater is largely cooling water, cleaning water and domestic wastewater. Therefore, guidelines do not apply to this aspect of PPG's effluent either. PPG operates two outfalls, 001 and 002. Outfall 001 Outfall 001 is the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant and receives the following kinds of wastewater: • Sanitary • Research • Boilers • Miscellaneous • Forming • Fabrication • Coating • Process WW • Storm drains/garage pads • Azdel, Inc. WW Outfall 002 Outfall 002 is a non -contact cooling water outfall and is permitted in accordance with the general permit for non -contact cooling water. Compliance Summary A review of DMR data has indicated that compliance with permit conditions is excellent, with the exception of chronic toxicity. This facility effectively removes cBOD and nitrifies extremely well. It appears that PPG's effluent is contributing to instream conductivity, though downstream values rarely exceed 100 µmhos/cm. Toxicity Type of Toxicity Test: Chronic (Ceriodaphnia) P/F Existing Limit: 35% Chronic P/F Recommended Limit: 33% Chronic P/F Monitoring Schedule: January, April, July, October This facility has had a history of toxicity failures. In 1996, PPG completed a toxicity evaluation report. It seems evident that toxicity is source related. The facility feels confident that toxicity is the result of binder usage. Lacy Ballard of PPG has indicated that as many as 10-15 binders are in use at any given time, each made up of a host of ingredients. PPG found that the addition of bentonite clay into the aeration system solved their toxicity problems. PPG received authorization to construct bentonite addition facilities on January 13, 1998. They are currently adding about 5001b/day and are experiencing no toxicity problems. Summary and Recommendations As effluent guidelines do not exist for this manufacturing process, and since water quality modeling has been conducted to determine the effect of this discharge on the receiving stream, I propose renewal with existing limits for BODs, NHs-N, TSS, and Oil 6? Grease. Reasonable potential analyses have been conducted for toxicants and provide the following results: Lead: NL, monitoring 2/Month Fluoride: 5.4 mg/L, monitoring Weekly Zinc: NL, monitoring 2/Month Copper: NL, monitoring 2/Month Special Conditions There are three special conditions. A(5) is the chronic toxicity special condition. A(4) is a biocide condition for outfall 002, non -contact cooling water. A(5) is a disinfection condition requiring such should violations of North Carolina's fecal coliform standard occur. Instream Monitoring Reauirements PPG currently monitors dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, temperature and conductivity instream. This renewal recommends maintaining instream monitoring.

In 1968, the name was changed to reflect the diversification of products manufactured including: chemicals, specialty and automotive glass, flat glass, fiber glass, cpatings and resins. The company currently has over 30,000 employees and 140 facilities hvorldwide. The fiber glass manufacturing operations are located in the U.S. (two in North Carolina and one in South Carolina), England, Taiwan, the Netherlands, and Venezuela. PPG's Shelby plant was started in 1958 to manufacture fiber glass for textile and reinforced plastics applications. Since the opening of tipe Lexington, N,C. facility in 1968 for textiles, the Shelby plant has concentrated on the ginforced plastics market. Fiber glass reinforcements are used in a multitude of produces in the marine, construction, automotive and electrical industries. Manufacturing Process The manufacturing process starts with the basic glass Ow materials, in powdered form, which are blended into a "batch material" for the furnaces. The batch includes limestone, siLea, boron, clay and fluorspar along with some mini ingredients to facilitate the mehing process. The melt furnaces operate at 2800 degrees Fahrenheit and transform the batch into molten glass. The ten Shelby furnaces produce from 2000 to 18,000 pounds per hour, depending on the furnace size and product mix. They operate continuously 24 hours/day, 7 days/week. The molten glass is drawn "m the furnaces through electrically heated platinum bushings into continuous fibers whichl are gathered into strands and are wound into spool -like packages or chopped into specified lengths, usually 1 /8 to 1 112 inches. Water sprays arc used to cool the glass and to �Oep strand contact points clean during the winding process. A water based solution of "binder" or sizing is applied the individual filaments as they are being drawn and before they are gathered into a strand. The binder is a proprietary formulation of resins, film formers, lubricants, surfactants, and coupling agents, usually emulsified in a water base. Twelve to fifteen different formulations may be in use at any time. The combination of spray water, lost binder during the high speed winding process, and cleaning water make up the majority of the wastewater discharged to the on site treatment facility. Following drying, the forming packages are placed into creels and the strands fabricated into a variety of products including mat, roving, choptred strand and woven products. Most of the fabrication processes are dry with only the mat machine generating a significant flow of wastewater, 07i20i98 14:15 PPG IND.ENG.SHELBY NC + 919 733 0719 N0.830 P03 Once fabricated into the form required by the end used, the fiber glass is then weighted, packaged on pallets or in bulk containers and transported to the warehouse for distribution. Azdel, Inc. Azdel, Inc. is a PPG joint venture with General Electric and is located next to the Shelby plant. This facility produces a fiber glass reinforced polypropylene sheet material that is sold to molders, largely in the automotive industry. T* heat laminating process to produce the sheets is a basically dry operation with wastewater generated by process cooling systems, cleaning, and restroom facilities only. 0?i20i98 14:17 PPG IND.ENG.SHELHY NC + 919 733 0719 N0.e30 904 Fqr a 2-4 Thn Fiber Glass Reinforcements Manufacturing Process Single End .r � •� Aprings Fglming Packages LP0 Q 6 O Gsels Gnvdyort � ' 7rucss //JClejjJels��== Suing or Binder Porm•lali9n Plalinum Bushings lUmnesof IYned and EluviccHe Lanmgedl filame•rs BiNIF Inspecsioa ADPlicalor ffJ am VYtighing Strand --.

Existing limits/monitoring frequencies are as follows: Parameter Monitoring Frequency Limit (µg/L) Chromium Weekly 149.0 Lead Weekly 75.0 Nickel 2/Month NL Fluoride Weekly 5.4 mg/L Zinc 2/Month NL Copper 2/Month NL A review of the results of the reasonable potential analyses has yielded the following recommendations for this renewal: Parameter Monitoring Frequency Limit (µg/L) Chromium Drop Drop Lead 2/Month NL Nickel Drop . Drop Fluoride Weekly 5.4 mg/L Zinc 2/Month NL Copper 2/Month NL Monitoring requirements for chromium and nickel have been dropped. RP analysis for lead indicated that the standard was not predicted to be exceeded. Monitoring is being maintained as lead was detected recently, though the measurement frequency is being reduced from weekly to 2/month. Predicted concentrations for both zinc and copper were higher than allowable concentrations, however it is Division policy to limit parameters for which there is an action level only when there is evidence that they are contributing to toxicity. A toxic evaluation report conducted in 1996 indicated that neither parameter was contributing to toxicity. Measurement frequencies will be maintained at 2/month.

North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality 919 North Main Street Mooresville, NC 28115 Subject: Quarterly Progress Report Special Order by Consent EMC WQ No. 96-24 PPG Industries NPDES Permit No. NC0004685 Cleveland County, NC Dear Mr. Gleason: PPG Industries, Inc., located in Shelby, North Carolina (PPG -Shelby) entered into a Special Order by Consent (SOC) with the State of North Carolina on March 11, 1997. This report is to satisfy the requirements of Item 2.d. of the SOC which requires that PPG -Shelby submit a Quarterly Progress Report by the 15th day of July 1998. PPG - Shelby has complied with the time schedule of the activities listed in the SOC (Activities 2 (c) 1-5). We have achieved compliance with the effluent limitations in accordance with the June 30, 1998 deadline (Activity 2(c)5) and have complied with all of the requirements of the of the SOC. As required in Activity 2(f), we are submitting a written notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) that we have achieved compliance with Activity 2(c)5. As indicated in the previous progress reports, we have permanently installed the bentonite clay feed system and are continuing to operate it for toxicity removal. Prior to the June 30, 1998 compliance deadline, optimization of the clay dosage was performed in order to achieve consistent compliance with toxicity limits. This optimization program included the performance of monthly toxicity screening tests in addition to the quarterly testing required in the SOC. Table 1 presents a summary of all of the effluent toxicity testing performed from 1997 to date. As indicated in Table 1, the full range bioassay test performed the week of April 13 did not meet the target NOEC of 33%. Bioassay testing was repeated the week of April 27 and the effluent passed with an NOEC of 33 %. During April 1998 the clay was being fed at a dosage of 285 lb/day. Based on the April test failure it was determined that the 285 lb/day clay dosage may not be adequate to achieve consistent compliance with the toxicity limits. Therefore, the clay dosage was increased to 500 lb/day in May 1998. The May and June toxicity screening tests passed with sample reproductions of 99 and 98%, respectively, of the control reproduction. Based on our operating experience with this system, we feel that we have implemented a system which will meet the chronic toxicity limits. We are performing full range chronic bioassay monitoring in July 1998 to satisfy the quarterly monitoring requirements in the SOC. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at (704) 434-2261 Ext. 544. Sincerely, Lacy Ballard Staff Engineer Attachments cc: J.T. Scruggs M. LeCroy B. Blackwell C. Bromby M.
