1. No later than 270 days from the effective date of this permit, the pennittee shall begin submitting discharge monitoring
reports electronically using the Division's eDMR application system [see A. (4,)].
2. Flow shall be monitored with each discharge event — During periods of no flow, the Permittee
shall submit a signed, monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) indicating "No discharge." Flow
may be monitored using any one of four methods:
a) measure flow continuously (via flow meter, totalizer preferred);
b) calculate flow (see Rational Equation) based on total rainfall per unit area
draining to the outfall [see A. (3.)];
c) estimate flow at 20-minute intervals during the entire discharge event; or
d) report flow based on discharge pump logs.
3. Turbidity — Effluent shall not cause receiving stream turbidity to exceed 50 NTU. If receiving -stream background
exceeds 50 NTU, the effluent shall not increase background levels. Non-compliance with this Standard may require
additional stream monitoring and a Turbidity Corrective Action Plan (TCAP).
4. This sample to be collected concurrently with annual Acute Toxicity.
5. Acute Toxicity (Fathead Minnow, 24-hour), Annual [see section A. (2)].
Conditions:
• There shall be no discharge of floating solids or foam visible in other than trace amounts.
• The Permittee shall discharge no tank solids, tank bottom water, or the rag layer.
• Following hydrostatic tank or pipe testing, the Permittee shall discharge no wastes containing benzene
concentrations greater than 1.19 µg/L, or toluene concentrations greater than 11 µg/L.

Permit NCO021962
A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (ANNUAL)
[15A NCAC 02B .0500 et seq.]
The permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on an annual basis using protocols defined as definitive
in EPA Document EPA-821-R-02-012 entitled "Methods for Measuring the Acute Toxicity of Effluents
and Receiving Waters to Freshwater and Marine Organisms." The monitoring shall be performed as a
Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) 24 hour static test. Effluent samples for self -monitoring
purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and shall be performed at the
NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all waste treatment processes.
The parameter code for Pimephales promelas is TAE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of
this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it
was performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWR Form AT-1 (original) is to be
sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1623 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1623
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water 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 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 test data from either these monitoring requirements 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.
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 follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the
month of the initial monitoring.

Permit NC0021962
A. (3.) FLOW MEASUREMENT RATIONAL [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
The Rational Equation: Q=KuCIA, where:
Q = flow (peak flow rate (cfs or m3/sec)
Ku = units conversation factor =1.008 for U.S. standard units (usually
ignored because it is so close to 1), or 0.278 for SI units
C = dimensionless runoff coefficient for the watershed, loosely defined
as the ratio of runoff to rainfall
I = intensity of rainfall taken from the intensity -duration -frequency
curves for the specified design return period at the time of
concentration, tc (in/h or mm/h). tc = time of concentration (time
after the beginning of rainfall excess when all portions of the
drainage basin are contributing simultaneously to flow at the
outlet).
A = area of tributary watershed (acres or km2)
The rational equation is used to calculate the runoff from a region, given:
the runoff coefficient which accounts for infiltration and other
potential losses in the region,
the rainfall intensity to the region,
the time it takes for runoff to travel from the regions upper reaches
to its outlet, and the region's drainage area.

A. (4.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING
REPORTS [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs)
and specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must
submit DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates
that these regulations will be adopted and is beginning implementation in late 2013.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this
permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):

Beginning no later than 270 days from the effective date of this permit, the permittee shall begin
reporting 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:
NC DENR / DWR / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
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.
Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements 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 using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid
for twelve (12) months and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted
Page 6 of 7

RESPONSE:
_X_ I have reviewed the draft permit and determined that the proposed discharge is not located
sufficiently close to any existing or known proposed public water supply intake (_miles) so as to
create an adverse effect on water quality. The DWR concurs with the issuance of this permit
provided the Permittee properly operates and maintains the facility; the Permittee meets the stated
effluent limits prior to discharge; and the discharge does not contravene the designated water
quality standards.
I concur with issuance of the above permit provided the following conditions are met:

Subject: RE: CITGO NPDES Permit.
Mr. Santee,
For TSS EPA requires both a MonthlyAveroge and a Daily Maximum permit limit. TSS limits are recommended as a
minimum stormwater management practice, and deemed good general indicators of effluent stormwater quality for
these facilities. So for instance, if you exceed 30 mg/L with for you monthly sample you could still be in compliance with
the daily limit of 45 mg/L. However, you will have to resample until you have an average that does not exceed 30 mg/L
to maintain compliance with the monthly limit. So the daily limit is not negated because you would have the
opportunity to resample. All samples would have to be reported on the DMR/eDMR with a monthly average.
This facility is currently classified as physical chemical I (PC-1) and requires an operator with that type and
grade. Operator certification is covered in the NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Part 11 Section C.
The NPDES Permit Standard Conditions Part If are not included in the draft permit because they are standard to all
Individual NPDES permits in North Carolina. Since they are not being changed at this time and are nearly identical to
your current permit they were not attached to the draft. A copy can be found on our website:
httD://r)ortal.ncdenr.orR/c/document library/eet file?uuid=b32f8a66-541c-4cf5-8ba6-03e38ledb2da&erouDld=38364
I have attached a copy for your reference. A copy of Permit Standard Conditions Part II will be attached to your final
permit.
Thanks for your comments. Let me know if you have any more questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Derek Denard

RE: CITGO's Charlotte Terminal Draft - NPDES Permit
Dear Mr. Denard:
CITGO Petroleum Corporation
36'h Street & Delaware River, Box 655
Pennsauken, NJ 08065
CITGO has reviewed the draft NPDES permit for the petroleum storage terminal located at 7600
Mount Holly Road, Charlotte, North Carolina. Your assistance with the following items would
be greatly appreciated.
1) The new permit would add a monthly average limit of 30.0 mg/L for Total Suspended
Solids. Since CITGO is required to sample only one time per month, this limit
essentially negates the daily maximum limit of 45.0 mg/L. Can the monthly average
limit be raised to match the daily maximum limit?
2) Two of CITGO Terminal Operators currently maintain the North Carolina Water
Operators License. However the draft permit does not indicate this is required. Since
CITGO does not perform any treatment of wastewater, is this License required?
3) Part II Standard Conditions for NPDES permits was not included in the draft version.
Are they still applicable?
Thank you for your help and consideration. Please do not hesitate to email me or the Terminal
Manager at (704) 392-3236 regarding these issues.
Respectfully,
Michael Santee, CSP

Yes they have 270 days to apply and start using eDMR from the effective date of the permit. The data will be uploaded
from the eDMR website to BIMS. They are still be required to submit a paper copy until we have approval from the EPA
for the COMER signature.

It is my understanding that when these permits are renewed the facilities will be required to submit DMRs digitally and
they will be available in BIMS. Is that correct?
