A. (10) NO DISCHARGE OF PCBs
As specified by 40 CFR 423.13 (a), there shall be no discharge of polychlorinated biphenyl compounds
such as those commonly used for transformer fluid.
A. (11) BIOCIDE CONDITION
The permittee shall obtain authorization from the Division of Water Quality prior to utilizing any
biocide in the cooling water. The Permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety
(90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in treatment system which may be
toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Water Quality. Such
notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map locating the discharge
point and receiving stream. Concentrations of chromium, copper, or zinc added to biocides shall not
exceed applicable water quality standards or action levels in the receiving stream, as determined by
calculations from the Biocide Worksheet Form 101 with Supplemental Metals Analysis worksheet.
A. (12) FISH STUDY AND MONITORING
The baseline study for the fish monitoring has been completed and approved (1999). This was
required based on the re- routing of Outfall 004 to the Cape Fear River. Fish tissue analysis will be
performed annually (after Outfall 004 is discharging to the Cape Fear River). All contaminant data
collected as part of this monitoring requirement will be reported within 4 months after sample
collection. Should fish tissue levels indicate concentrations of concern, the Division of Water Quality
may require additional collection of environmental data.
This monitoring plan is an enforceable part of the NPDES permit.
