A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY)
[15A NCAC 02B .0200 et seq.]
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubfa at an effluent concentration of 1.9%.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum,guarterlu monitoring using test
procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay
Procedure," Revised December 2010, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II
Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised- December 2010) or
subsequent versions. The tests will be performed February, May, August, and
November. These months signify the first month of each three month toxicity testing
quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing must be obtained
during representative effluent discharge and 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 -December 2010) 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, DWR Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following
address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Environmental Sciences Section
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences
Section 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
Section at the address cited above.
Page 4 of 8

PermitNC0005312
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is
required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Assessment of toxicity
compliance is based on the toxicity testing quarter, which is the three month time
interval that begins on the first day of the month in which toxicity testing is required by
this permit and continues until the final day of the third month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North
Carolina Division of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream,
this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring
requirements or limits.
If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit,
the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the
data submitted on the DMR & all AT Form submitted.
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.
A. (3.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[NCGS 143-215.1 (b)]
Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports
(DMRs) and program reports. The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted
and became effective on December 21, 2015.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within
Part II of this permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.1 and Section E. (5.1 tall
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
Page 5 of 8

Permit NC0005312
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:
NC DENR / Division of Water Resources / Water Quality Permitting Section
ATTENTION: Central Files
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
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 receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40
CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic
reporting too] 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:
Page 6 of 8

Permit NC0005312
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting
Requirements" section above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Revortin¢
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:
http: / /deg.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr
4. Sianatory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and Supersedes
Section B. 111.) (dll
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person
described in Part II, Section B. (I 1.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that
person as described in Part xI, Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must
be delegated signatory authority for eDMR reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an
eDMR user account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more
information on North Carolina's eDMR system, registering for eDMR and obtaining
an eDMR user account, please visit the following web page:
