Dear Mr. Patterson:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject
permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES permit. This permit is issued pursuant to
the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement
between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as
subsequently amended).
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.
The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC
DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) intemet application has been added to your
final NPDES permit with eDMR reporting to begin no later than April 1, 2015. [See Special Condition
A. (10)]. For information on eDMR, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account,

A. (8) CALCULATION AND REPORTING OF NUTRIENT LOADS
The Permittee shall calculate and report monthly and annual nutrient loads for the East Burlington
(NC0023868) and South Burlington (NC0023876) WWTPs as follows:
a. Calculation of Discharge Loads: The Permittee shall calculate monthly and annual discharge
loads for each facility as follows:
(i.) Monthly Discharge Load (lb/mo, TN or TP) = TN (or TP) x TMF x 8.34
where:
TN (or TP) = the average Total Nitrogen (or Total Phosphorus) concentration
(mg/L) of the composite samples collected during, the month
TMF = the Total Monthly Flow of wastewater discharged during the
month (MG/mo)
8.34 = conversion factor, from (mg/L x MG) to pounds
(ii.) Annual Discharge Load (lb/yr, TN or TP) = Sum of the 12 Monthly TN (or TP) Loads for the
calendar year
v _
b. Calculation of Delivered Loads:
(i.) The Permittee shall calculate delivered loads as follows:
(A) Individual, Annual Delivered Load (lb/yr, TN or TP) _
Annual Discharge Load (lb/yr, TN or TP) x TF

A. (10) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
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):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)l
Beginning no later than April 1, 2015, 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 / 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.
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
electronically.to the Division unless the permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary
waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following, web page:

BACKGROUND
The City of Burlington operates a 12.0 MGD regional wastewater treatment facility that serves
the communities of Burlington, Elon, Gibsonville, Haw River population 68,200; and eight
industries, one is a categorical SIU facility. The East Burlington WWTP treats a mixture of 8 1 %
domestic and 19% industrial wastewater and discharges to the Haw River, a class WS-IV, NSW
water in the Cape Fear River Basin.
As part of the sludge management plan, the City of Burlington generates approximately 6.5
million gallons annually of a class B lime stabilized solids from its primary treatment process
that are land applied under permit WQ0000520. Also, a solid product is generated from its
activated powdered carbon treatment process as an ash byproduct that is used as cap material at
the landfill. As required record keeping, annual analysis and reporting on land applied biosolids
and ash are conducted. Storage is available at the facility for solids to address seasonal inventory
fluctuations.
Based on approved Jordan Lake nutrient rules 15A NCAC 02B .0270 this permit was modified
in 2010 and Total Nitrogen (TN) Load and Total Phosphorus (TP) Load allocations assigned. To
address the Burlington WWTPs (East Burlington WWTP NCO023868 and South Burlington
WWTP NCO023876) Delivered TN/TP Loads limits as a total shared limit between both
facilities, Outfall COI was created and included January 1, 2010 as the TP Load compliance date
and January 1, 2016 as the TN Load compliance date.
In 2011 Jordan Lake nutrient rules were amended by Session Law 2011-394 to allow extension
of compliance with Delivered Total Nitrogen Load until calendar year 2018 as long as the
Authorization to Construct permit to add the necessary treatment components was issued by year
end 2016.
This segment of the Haw River was re-classified as WS-V, NSW under Jordan Reservoir and
Falls of Neuse Reservoir watershed rules in 2009. However, session law Senate Bill 810 passed
Fact Sheet
NPDES NCO023868
Page 1 of 7

in 2012 states 15A NCAC 02B .0218 (3) (e) through (h) rules do not apply unless a water supply
intake is present or violations at the boundary with other designated WS waters occurs.
HISTORY
2006 - Renewal permit issued with: Added seasonal Ammonia as Nitrogen (NH3-N) weekly
limits, annual Priority Pollutant Analysis (PPA) scan special condition, TN Load
monitoring, TP Load monitoring, nutrient re -opener special condition, and Total
Residual Chlorine (TRC) limit with compliance date of April 1, 2007. Removed Total
Cyanide limits and reduced monitoring frequency to monthly. Removed Total
Chromium limit and monitoring.
2009 - Jordan Lake nutrient rules adopted. Receiving stream reclassified as WS-V, NSW.
2010 - Permit was modified to implement Jordan Lake nutrient rules and to make other
technical corrections: Assigned annual TP/TN Load allocation limits. Created Outfall
CO1 for both Burlington WWTP facilities (NC0023968 and NC0023876) combined
Delivered TP/TN Load limits with compliance. Removed TP quarterly limit, nutrient re -
opener special condition, nitrogen optimization special condition, and TRC compliance
date. Revised TRC footnote narrative and boiler plate narrative. Corrected pH
monitoring frequency.
2011 - An authorization -to -construct was issued for major upgrades and nitrogen removal
treatment improvements.
- Change in 15A NCAC 02B .0270 Jordan Lake Rule by Session Law 2011-394
(HB 119) amended compliance dates for meeting Delivered Total Nitrogen Load limit.
- Requested and received confirmation of UOM for mercury data and copies of 2nd
species test results.
2012 - Senate Bill 810 passed, exempted Permittee from 15A NCAC 02B .0218 (3) (e)
through (h) Water Quality Standard.
- US EPA approved state wide mercury TMDL.
2013 - Received request letter to reduce monitoring per Exceptional Performance Facility
guidelines.
TREATMENT PROCESS
Combined wastewater, domestic and industrial, passes trough a bar screen, grit chamber, manual
screen, influent flow meter channel, and into a collection sump. A composite sampler collects
samples of the influent. Collected wastewater is pumped to the aerated equalization basin and
then pumped to splitter box that distributes flow to the two primary clarifiers. Solids are
routinely removed from the primary clarifiers, further dewatered, stored, mixed with lime to
meet 40 CFR 503C regulations, and land applied under an approved permit.
Effluent from the primary clarifiers combine and then flows to the BNR system which consist of
eight tanks with mixers that can be configured as required for anoxic and anaerobic treatment.
Effluent from the BNR system is mixed with carbon sources, and flows to a splitter box that
distributes flow to the two aeration basins. Polymer may be added to the aeration basins influent
for phosphorus reduction.
Effluent from the aeration basins is combined and distributed by splitter boxes between four
secondary clarifiers. Solids from the secondary clarifiers are both removed for further processing
and for recycling to the BNR system. The removed solids are further dewatered, stored, and
refined using the Zimpro® process to recover a carbon source for recycling. A byproduct of the
refinement process is an ash material which is sent to the landfill.
Effluent from the secondary clarifiers combine and is distributed to the six tertiary filters. Filter
backwash wastewater is either recycled back to the treatment works influent or stored in a basin

and pumped back to the aeration basins. Filtered effluent continues through two parallel contact
chamber where chlorination is conducted and then recombined where chemical addition for
declorination is added. The effluent continues through a step cascade aeration basin, through the
effluent meter channel, and discharges to Outfall 001 in the Haw River. A composite sampler
collects samples of the effluent.
A solids denitrification tank is available to further process solids before recycling internally.
Various' chemical additions systems are available to provide liquid caustic, polymer, lime,
activated powdered carbon, and alum additives.
COMPLIANCE
Since October 2006 there was one pH compliance violation and multiple minor reporting
technical discrepancies. There were no enforcement actions associated with this facility NPDES
discharge permit.
There were 60 reported Burlington collection system incidences of untreated wastewater
between October 2006 to January 2014; 1 over 100,000 gallons, 2 between 50,000 gallons and
100,000 gallons, 3 between 10,000 gallons to 50,000 gallons, and 54 less than 10,000 gallons
(averaging less than 300 gallons per event). There was $5,800 in penalties assessed as collection
system enforcement actions.
A release of 28,600 gallons of untreated wastewater from a force main leak at the facility was
reported on January 24, 2014. Approximately 3.5 MG of untreated wastewater was released
over 3 days from January 27 to 29, 2014 to the Haw River when an emergency pump system put
in place to bypass a cracked forced main section was unable to transfer all the incoming flow.
REQUEST FOR MONITORING REDUCTION
The Permittee requested a reduction in the monitoring frequencies for the four target parameters
(BOD, TSS, NH3-N, Fecal Coliform) covered by the Exceptional Performance Facility (EPG)
guidance, and for bioassay (toxicity test). Reduction to bioassay is not allowed. The request
included the required documentation.
After review of reported DMR data and documentation, the Division concurs that this facility
meets the EPG requirements for BOD, TSS, NH3-N, and Fecal Coliform monitoring reduction.
The monitoring frequencies will be reduced to 2/week.
PERMITTING STRATEGY
Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA)
The Division conducted EPA -recommended analyses to determine the reasonable potential for
detected toxicants to be discharged in excess of aquatic life and human health WQS by this
facility based on DMR effluent and pretreatment data from March 2009 to December 2012, and
from the three PPA submitted with the renewal application. Evaluations were conducted for
arsenic, chromium, copper, molybdenum, zinc, bromodichloromethane, chloroform,
dibromochloromethane, and total phenolic compounds.
Results suggest reasonable potential for the facility to discharge copper and zinc in excess of
WQS. Copper and zinc are action level parameter and as such are evaluated in conjunction with
toxicity performance. This facility is considered to have an acceptable toxicity performance
history. Based on RPA guidance monitoring will be required quarterly to coincide with toxicity
testing.
All cyanide and silver values were below the detection limit. Cyanide and silver monitoring will
be removed from the permit but continuer where required for pretreatment and for the PPA.
Fact Sheet
NPDES NC0023868
Page 3 of 7

Arsenic, chromium, molybdenum, bromodichloromethane, chloroform, dibromochloromethane,
and total phenolic compounds predicted RPA values were less than 50% of their WQS limits..
Based on RPA guidance no action will be necessary.

Whole Effluent Toxicity
The permit required passing a quarterly chronic toxicity testing using ceriodaphnia, at 36%
effluent concentration. The facility passed 24 out of 26 of its toxicity tests submitted since
November 2006. Additional 2nd species chronic toxicity tests were required with the renewal
application and were also passed. Will update special condition A. (4) narrative to the most
current version.
Mercury TMDL Evaluation
A mercury TMDL was approved by US EPA in October 2012 and will be implemented in the
final permit. Table II summaries the available mercury data used to determine requirements:

Per mercury TMDL guidance, if there are no exceedance of the TBEL or WQBEL as in this case
then mercury monitoring (Method 1631E) conducted in the 3 required PPAs will be sufficient. In
addition, since there are multiple mercury measurements above 1 ng/L, and this is a major
municipal facility with a permitted flow greater than 2.0 MGD, a special condition A. (9)
requiring the facility to develop a mercury minimization plan will be added.
Priority Pollutant Analysis
The results of three PPA were submitted with the permit renewal application. See RPA Analysis
for results. Will amend PPA special condition A. (5) narrative to designate compliance dates for
federally required three annual effluent pollutant scans and to provide instruction on completion
of federally required 2°d species testing for permit renewal application.

conductivity, and TP as required monitoring parameters in the event the Permittee is no longer a
member of the coalition. Additional nutrient monitoring was conducted at the same locations.
This segment of the receiving stream is no longer impaired for fecal coliform so instream fecal
coliform monitoring will be removed. The special condition A.(3) mailing address was corrected
to reflect the new mailing address for the Modeling and Assessment Branch.

Yes. If the local bromide work'stops however, my understanding is that the division is ready to do more before the next
permit cycle if needed (pending our own investigations). I'm ok leaving it out of the actual permits at this time because
of the state and local actions occurring. Indications are positive with the study being done by NCSU.

Response to Implementation of New Total Nitrogen Load Limit Letter dated 1/31/2014
City of Burlington NPDES Permit #NC0023868
City of Burlington NPDES Permit #NC0023876
Thank you for the letter dated January 31, 2014 explaining the progress that has been made so far on the issuance of
the NPDES permits for our East and South Wastewater Treatment Facilities.
We understand that the City of Burlington must provide the state with a timeline of milestones that we plan to achieve
in order to comply with the new Total Nitrogen Load Limits beginning with the calendar year 2021.
As stated in the January 31 letter, the City of Burlington must submit status reports to document the progress of
achieving the milestones as a condition of their NPDES permit(s). As of today (March 6, 2014) the City of Burlington
has already completed most all of the items listed as example milestones in the January 31 letter. We are in the final
stages of the nutrient removal improvements at both the East Burlington and South Burlington facilities. While there are
still some items left to be completed by each respective contractor, both projects should be considered substantially
complete at this time.
For your convenience, the reference numbers for each of the projects ar as follows:
East Burlington Nutrient Improvements 023868A01
South Burlington Filter Construction . 023876A01
South Burlington Nutrient Improvements 023876A02
We look forward to using the extended deadline provided by SL 2013-395 to experiment with various operational
strategies as we attempt to familiarize our staff with the new process and optimize the process to each of our facilities.
Please feel welcome to contact us if you have any questions about either of these facilities.

As a result of North Carolina legislature Section Law 2013-395, the compliance date under certain
conditions with the Jordan Lake Total Nitrogen Rules was extended and directly impacts your NPDES
permitted facilities. This is a significant change to both South Burlington and East Burlington NPDES
permits, and will require new draft permits be issued for public review, for your comment, and then for final
issuance.
Except for the Total Nitrogen portion of your March 2013 draft permits and several technical
corrections, the requirements in the forthcoming drafts are anticipated to be same as stated in the March 2013
drafts. We recognize that comments have been provided on both facilities original March 2013 drafts. For
your consideration and review we offer the following response to your previous comments on the March
NPDES draft permits.
(1) Technical Corrections
- The page number format conflict was fixed and page number corrected.
- Where requested the facility description narrative was amended.
- The instream sampling narrative was corrected and is now the same in both permits, reflecting a
waiver for membership in the Upper Cape Fear Basin Association.
- The Chronic Toxicity narrative was updated and is the same in both permits with each facility's
test concentration applied.
- The transport factors were corrected.
- Bromodichloromethane and Dibromochloromethane monitoring requirements were corrected. The
applicable Human Health Water Quality Standard (applies to C classified surface waters) was
applied and the data re-evaluated resulting in no additional monitoring requirements other than
those in the Effluent Pollutant Scan.

Mike,
I copied the following comments as worded in the comment letter from Burlington in regards to their recent drafts.
Need your assistance with response or concurrence.
GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE PROPOSED STANDARD CONDITIONS
1) There are no significant comments regarding the November 2011 revisions of the boilerplate permit language. However, there are a
number of occasions where a citation for a specific section of the Clean Water Act is given but some portion of that language is different in
the 2011 boilerplate. In most cases this is limited to differences in the amount of a fine for a particular violation (Section B(1)b, g) while
other sections match exactly — Section B(1)c, for example.
2)' Section C(4)(b)(1) — Anticipated Bypass — The boilerplate cites 40 CFR 122.41(m)(3) as the source, but proceeds to includes the addition
of "including and evaluation of the anticipated quality and effect of the bypass" which is not found in the federal language as cited. We ask
that this additional language be removed.
3) Section 1)(1) — Representative Sampling — The boilerplate cites 40 CFR 122.410) as the source, but the text is very different from the text
in the federal rule..b C�� 0 F ekLiA

a. We request that monitoring for Total Nitrogen be reduced to monthly. We have ample historical data that/
demonstrate that this particular facility (East Burlington WWTP NC0023868, Outfall 001) has a consistent compli e
history with respect to total Nitrogen. The South Burlington WWTP (NC0023876, Outfall 001) has had an e�Eellent
history with total nitrogen discharges, consistently discharging less than half (38.4%) of the TMDL. Withal% permit
provision -that allows these two dischargers to combine their respective dischargers to achieve Delivered Nitrogen
Loads at Jordan Lake, we believe that weekly monitoring is an unnecessary and expensive misuse of available
resources. In addition, if and when a trading association is established among the Upper Cape Fear River Basin
Association dischargers, we have significant historical evidence that the delivered load to the Jordan Lake is less
than 50% of the TMDL. Is it really necessary to document this level of compli c�52 times per year rather than 12?
In addition to this facility's past performance in meeting the osed .Nitrogen limits, we would like to remind
NCDENR that this facility is in the midst of construction that uGf further improve our ability to control nitrogen in the
discharge.
b. We request that monitoring for phosphorus -be reduced to monthly. We have ample historical data that demonstrate
that this particular facility (East Bjffli�cgiton WWTP NC0023868, Outfall 001) has a consistent compliance history with
respect to total Phosphorusr discharging an average of 32.6% of the allowable daily load over the past four years.
The South Burlington WWTP (NC0023876, Outfall 001) also an excellent history with phosphorus discharges,
consistently disc ai`ging just over half (51.2%) of the TMDL. With the permit provision that allows these two
dischargers , combine their respective dischargers to achieve Delivered Phosphorus Loads at Jordan Lake, we
1/2

believe that weekly monitoring is an unnecessary and expensive misuse of available resources. In addition, if and
when a trading association is established among the Upper Cape Fear River Basin Association dischargers, we have
significant historical evidence that the delivered load to the Jordan Lake is less than 50% of the TMDL. Is it really
necessary to document this level of compliance 52 times per year rather than 12?
There were some other nutrient TMDL related comments which were typo errors I carried over from the current permit and will
correct in the final.

Hi Ron,
We have read through the Burlington permits and haven't seen any major issues. The only thing that I found was on the
Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet for the South plant where the new sand filter is described as "Six tertiary sand filters
with backwash pumps." Technically, this is one sand filter with six cells ... not sure if the language there is important but
just wanted to mention it. Other than that, everything looks good and WSRO concurs with the issuance of these permits.
Thanks.

Jenny,
The attached corrected copies of both Burlington WWTPs draft permits were emailed to the Permittee and EPA, this is
your copy. The changes were to correct page issues. The missing A.(2) TN allocation narrative in NC0023876 is the same
in both permits as it is shared between facilities.
If you have any questions let me know.

Comments on the Draft NPDES Permit for East Burlington WWTP
City of Burlington NPDES Permit #NC0023868
���vllyG'LON

ram, ti
�E8 14.1g93
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the draft NPDES permit for the East Burlington WWTP
NPDES permit. The following is a summary of comments generated by the City of Burlington Water Resources
Management staff concerning the draft NPDES permit dated March 27, 2013. We understand that our comments are
due back to you no later than April 26, 2013.
We respectfully submit the following comments regarding the draft permit. We offer these comments for your
consideration and feedback.
GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE PROPOSED STANDARD CONDITIONS
1) There are no significant comments regarding the November 2011 revisions of the boilerplate permit
language. However, there are a number of occasions where a citation for a specific section of the Clean
Water Act is given but some portion of that language is different in the 2011 boilerplate. In most cases this is
limited to differences in the amount of a fine for a particular violation (Section B(1)b, g) while other sections
match exactly — Section B(1)c, for example.
2) Section C(4)(b)(1) — Anticipated Bypass — The boilerplate cites 40 CFR 122.41(m)(3) as the source, but
proceeds to includes the addition of "including and evaluation of the anticipated quality and effect of the
bypass" which is not found in the federal language as cited. We ask that this additional language be
removed.
3) Section D(1) — Representative Sampling — The boilerplate cites 40 CFR 122.410) as the source, but the text
is very different from the text in the federal rule.
SPECIFIC COMMENTS ABOUT THE DRAFT PERMIT
4) Please add page numbers to each page of the permit using the format page # of ##.
5) Title Page, Permit Renewal — We notice that our permit is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2016. This is a
three year permit rather than five. We prefer to have a permit that is issued for a 5-year period.
6) Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet — Facility Description — please consider the following changes:
a. Remove 800,000 gallon denitrification tank with mixers. The Nutrient Removal Improvement project
currently in progress at this facility will render this tank obsolete for denitrification.

Burlington, NC 27216-1358 E� 14,1893
b. Remove Powdered Activated Carbon Treatment process with filter press and ash removal. This
process is no longer a part of the daily operations.
c. Change "One (1) 412,000 gallon aerated sludge storage tank with blowers" to "One (1) 412,000
gallon aerated sludge storage tank with mixer". This wording will better characterizes the current
facility.
7) Section A (1) — Effluent Limitations
a. Conductivity — We request that conductivity be removed from our effluent sampling requirements.
We understand that there is no associated stream standard or permit limit for this parameter, which
calls into question the need to collect and report this information — particularly on a daily basis. In
addition, the Upper Cape Fear River Basin Association contractor performs this test upstream and
downstream from our discharge point. We have years of daily samples for this parameter and we
do not see the value of continued testing. It should also be noted that this parameter has been
eliminated from other permits in this basin.
b. BOD limits have 3 significant figures. This is incorrect. There should be only two significant figures
because the state's DO standard is only expressed with two significant figures (i.e. "5.0"). The BOD
limits should be changed to have only 2 significant figures. This would mean that the ".0" would be
removed from all four of the BOD numeric limits and the result will be limits of 12, 18, 24 and 36
respectively.
c. Same for TSS limits. The EPA secondary treatment and the NC regulations both specify "30" and
"45" mg/L. The numeric limits for TSS on our permit should be changed accordingly.
d. We request that monitoring for Total Nitrogen be reduced to monthly. We have ample historical
data that demonstrate that this particular facility (East Burlington WWTP NC0023868, Outfall 001)
has a consistent compliance history with respect to total Nitrogen. The South Burlington WWTP
(NC0023876, Outfall 001) has had an excellent history with total nitrogen discharges, consistently
discharging less than half (38.4%) of the TMDL. With the permit provision that allows these two
dischargers to combine their respective dischargers to achieve Delivered Nitrogen Loads at Jordan
Lake, we believe that weekly monitoring is an unnecessary and expensive misuse of available
resources. In addition, if and when a trading association is established among the Upper Cape
Fear River Basin Association dischargers, we have significant historical evidence that the delivered
load to the Jordan Lake is less than 50% of the TMDL. Is it really necessary to document this level
of compliance 52 times per year rather than 12?
In addition to this facility's past performance in meeting the proposed Nitrogen limits, we would like
to remind NCDENR that this facility is in the midst of construction that will further improve our
ability to control nitrogen in the discharge.
e. We request that monitoring for phosphorus be reduced to monthly. We have ample historical data
that demonstrate that this particular facility (East Burlington WWTP NC0023868, Outfall 001) has a
consistent compliance history with respect to total Phosphorus — discharging an average of 32.6%
of the allowable daily load over the past four years. The South Burlington WWTP (NC0023876,
Outfall 001) also an excellent history with phosphorus discharges, consistently discharging just
over half (51.2%) of the TMDL. With the permit provision that allows these two dischargers to
combine their respective dischargers to achieve Delivered Phosphorus Loads at Jordan Lake, we
believe that weekly monitoring is an unnecessary and expensive misuse of available resources. In
addition, if and when a trading association is established among the Upper Cape Fear River Basin

Association dischargers, we have significant historical evidence that the delivered load to the
Jordan Lake is less than 50% of the TMDL. Is it really necessary to document this level of
compliance 52 times per year rather than 12?
Bromodichloromethane and Dibromochloromethane — the City of Burlington continues to assert
that monitoring for these constituents was mistakenly included into the draft NPDES permit as a
result of confusion surrounding the change in stream classification in the Jordan Lake watershed to
WS-V. The change to WS-V was intended to give authority to phase 2 stormwater communities to
implement local stormwater regulationsand was intended to specifically control nutrients, not to
increase the level of monitoring required by dischargers that were previously discharging into Class
C streams. Session law SB810 passed in 2012 was passed specifically to rectify the unintended
consequence of this reclassification. We think that our draft permit limits for these organic
constituents is a common misinterpretation of this classification redesignation. We are confident
that careful consideration will prove this to be the case and that the monitoring requirements for
this facility will revert back to the class C classification requirements without applying the Human
Health standard. We believe this classification is fully protective of the receiving stream water
quality for secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, aquatic life including
propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, agriculture and other uses suitable for
Class C waters.
However, even if it is shown that the application of this standard is appropriate for our discharge,
we question the practicality of the information gained from these sample results. The City of
Burlington uses chloramines as a secondary disinfectant to control the formation of
trihalomethanes in our drinking water. We know that these substances are going to be present in
our drinking water at levels in the parts per billion range — as they have been present in our
drinking water since the use of chlorine began as a disinfectant in our drinking water treatment
process.
Additionally, it is worth noting that the laboratories that analyze for these parameters inform us that
these analytes cannot be analyzed separately; they must be analyzed collectively as
trihalomethanes. There is no advantage in limiting the analysis to just one or two constituents.
8) Section A (3) — Instream Monitoring Requirements
a. The language in this section is different in this draft permit than the draft permit for the South Plant
(NC0023876). We interpret the requirements of this section in both permits to essentially say the
same thing, but we would prefer the language in both to be identical to reduce the likelihood of
misinterpretations.
b. While we anticipate remaining an active member of the Upper Cape Fear Basin Association, we
think that increasing the monitoring frequency to 3 times per week (Summer) is excessive should
we cease to be a member. At a minimum, sampling frequency should match the sampling
frequency currently in place for the association — currently 1 time per month. If present sampling
frequency is deemed adequate, we see no logic in increasing the sampling frequency as proposed
in the draft permit.
9) Section A (4) — Chronic Toxicity Pass/Fail Permit limit
a. We would like to see the following revised language in Section A(4): Replace "If the Permittee
monitors any pollutant more frequently then[sic] required by this permit, the results of such
monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the data submitted on the DMR & all
CADocuments and Settings\edavis\My Documents\Utilities Department\Wastewater\EBWWTP\Comments_EBWWTP DRAFT NPDES Permit April 2013.doc

AT Form submitted" with "If the Permittee monitors any effluent pollutant more frequently than
required by this permit, using approved methods and at the sampling point specified herein, the
results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation and reporting of the data submitted
on the DMR and all other forms required to be submitted to the Department."
This change we are proposing comes from the Federal Rule.
b. Regardless of whether item 9(a) of these comments is approved as requested or not, we think that
the language should be moved to Section A(1) or A(5) of the permit. It currently resides in Section
A(4) Chronic Toxicity Pass/Fail Permit Limit which seems out of place.
10) Section A (5) —Effluent Pollutant Scan
a. We request the following change: Replace "Analytical methods shall be in accordance with 40 CFR
Part 136 and shall be sufficiently sensitive to determine whether parameters are present in
concentrations greater than applicable standards and criteria" to "Analytical methods shall be in
accordance with 40 CFR Part 136. The Permittee shall use the most sensitive commercially
available and economically practicable methods and shall be sufficiently sensitive to determine
whether pollutant parameters of concern are present in concentrations greater than applicable
standards and criteriathe Permittee's effluent. Effluent Pollutant Scan samples should be collected
with one quarterly toxicity test during each year specified for EPS testing.
We are concerned that the current language may require us to get down to Water Quality
Standards even if approved methods are not available to get there. We also wanted to protect
ourselves from the possibility that some method may become approved but is prohibitively
expensive to conduct.
11) Section A (6) — Nutrient Allocations Draft
a. A Nitrogen Transport Factor of 96% was assigned to this permit. We think this is incorrect. We
think the correct transport factor should be 77% based on the predicted load delivered to Jordan
Lake and based on the apportioning criteria established in T15A NCAC 02B .0270 and as
published in the Haw River Waste Load Calculation tables — found in the B. Everett Jordan
Reservoir Phase I TMDL Final Report issued in September 2007. (See Attachment)
b. A Phosphorus Transport Factor of 97% was assigned to this permit. We think this is incorrect. We
think the correct transport factor should be 69% based on the predicted load delivered to Jordan
Lake and based on the apportioning criteria established in T15A NCAC 02B .0270 and as
published in the Haw River Waste Load Calculation tables — found in the B. Everett Jordan
Reservoir Phase I TMDL Final Report issued in September 2007. (See Attachment)
12) Section A (8) — Calculation and Reporting of Nutrient Loads
a. We think the Transport Factor for Total Nitrogen (96%) and Total Phosphorus (97%) are incorrect.
We think the actual transport values should be 77% for Total Nitrogen and 69% for Total
Phosphorus.

A.Procedure to Determine if Annual Average Limit Required:
Step 1- WQBEL Evaluation
• Evaluate need for Water Quality Based Effluent Limit (WQBEL)
• Calculate Allowable mercury concentration using dilution (12 ng/1 x 7Q10 dilution factor)
• Compare Annual effluent concentrations to Allowable Conc. for each of last 5 years
• If any Annual Avg > Allowable Conc., then add Annual Avg WQBEL.
Step 2- TBEL Evaluation
• Evaluate need for Technology Based Effluent Limit (TBEL)
• Compare all individual values to TBEL of 47 ng/1
• If any single value > 47 ng/l, then add Annual Avg TBEL of 47 ng/l.
Step 3- Compare WQBEL to TBEL
• If data triggers need for WQBEL and TBEL, select most stringent of the two limits.
• The Annual Avg limit will be capped at 47 ng/1 based on TBEL.
Step 4- If NEW limit, delay effective date
• Addition of new limit will become effective in 5ffi year of permit, with mercury minimization plan
development/implementation required for first 4 years (see MMP below).
B. Mercury Minimization Plan (MMP). If an MMP is required (note change to Major Municipal >
2MGD), add the following Special Condition to the permit:
A(x). Mercury Minimization Plan (MMP). The permittee shall develop and implement a mercury
minimization plan during this permit term. The MMP shall be developed within 180 days of the NPDES
Permit Effective Date, and shall be available for inspection on -site. A sample MMP was developed
through a stakeholder review process and has been placed on the Division website for guidance
(hM2:Hportal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/swp/ps/Udes, under Model Mercury Minimization Plan). The MMP
should place emphasis on identification of mercury contributors and goals for reduction. Results shall be
summarized and submitted with the next permit renewal.
C. New/Expanding Dischargers- will be allowed as long as the overall aggregate point source load
allocation is not exceeded.
D. Special Situations- Additional site -specific information, such as fish tissue and water column data
when available, will be considered in assigning limits and MMP requirements. Also, limits > TBEL may
be considered on case -by -case basis due to extenuating circumstances.

Class IV -
Dear Mr. Patterson:
John E. Skvarla, III
Secretary
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the renewal draft permit for your facility. Be aware there are many
changes from your existing permit. Please review the draft carefully to understand the conditions, measurement
units, and new requirements.
Your Exceptional Performance documentation and request to reduce monitoring was reviewed. The
bioassay requirement, toxicity testing, is not a target parameter and cannot be considered for monitoring
reduction. However, the Division concurs that you meet all the requirements for monitoring reduction of
effluent BOD, TSS, Ammonia as Nitrogen, and Fecal Coliform, and will be implemented in this permit. Be
aware your permit may be re -opened and monitoring increased if non-compliance with Exceptional
Performance criterion occurs or if impairments to the surface waters occurred that are the result of your plant
operation.
A state wide Mercury TMDL was approved by US EPA in 2012 and will be implemented in this permit.
Based on the last five years of data, your facility Effluent Pollutant Scans will be sufficient for future mercury
(Method 1631E) evaluation. Any existing pretreatment mercury requirements will continue. Also, you will be
required to develop a Mercury Minimization Plan (MMP) within 180 days of the effective date of this permit.
Additional details on the MMP are available on http: /portal. ncdenr, org/web/wq/swp/ps/npdes.
The Delivered Total Nitrogen Load combined limit compliance date was amended, and the designated
water quality standard (WQS) was applied, as mandated by North Carolina legislative bills, Session Law 2011-
394 (HB119) and Senate Bill 810 respectively. Your permit is among several in the Cape River Basin that are
up for renewal. The changes made in your renewal permit comply with North Carolina WQS and Division
strategies. These changes include:

Summary of Changes
1) BOD, TSS, Ammonia as Nitrogen, and Fecal Coliform monitoring will be reduced to 2/week. Facility
met Exceptional Performance criterion.
2) Outfall COI Total Delivered Nitrogen Load compliance date will be modified to add alternative
compliance date in calendar year 2018 based on approval of authorization -to -construct. Footnote added
to special condition A. (2) to Total Nitrogen Delivered combined limit effective date as defined by
Session Law 2012-394 (1113119).
3) Bromodichloromethane and Dibromochloromethane quarterly monitoring will be added. Per guidelines
for limited data with potential to exceed Human Health WQS quarterly monitoring required. Will re-
evaluate data at next renewal to determine if WQS-based limits are required.
4) Total Copper and Total Zinc monitoring will be reduced to quarterly to be in conjunction with toxicity
test. As action level parameters and following Division strategy, future evaluation should be conducted
with toxicity test.
5) Total Cyanide and Total Silver monitoring will be removed but remain as pretreatment monitoring
parameters. Review of data indicates no potential for these parameters to exceed Aquatic Life WQS.
6) Effluent Pollutant Scan monitoring seasonal monitoring will be define to generate a total of three scans
in designated years. Technical correction to align with US EPA requirements.
7) A new special condition A. (9) Mercury Minimization Plan (MMP) will be added. Mandated by Mercury
TMDL.
8) Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet and Chronic Toxicity Pass/Fail Permit Limit narratives updated.
The permit draft will be sent to EPA Region IV and Environmental Sciences Section for comment and
approval.
Concurrent with this notification the Division is publishing a notice in the newspaper having circulation
in the general Alamance County area, soliciting public comments on this permit draft. Please provide any
comments you may have regarding this draft to DENR — DWQ, NPDES Program no later than 30 days after
receiving this draftpermit.
Following the 30-day public comment period, the Division will review all pertinent comments and take
appropriate action prior to issuing a final permit. If you have questions concerning the draft for your facility,
please call Ron Berry at [phone] or by email at ron.berryna,ncdenr.gov.
If no adverse comments are received from the public or from you, this permit will likely be issued in
May 2013, with an effective date of June 1, 2013, expiring on May 31, 2016.
Sincerely,
Ron Berry

DWQ Guidance Regarding the Reduction of Monitoring Frequencies in
NPDES Permits for Exceptionally Performing Facilities
October 22, 2012
A. Purpose
In its efforts to reduce the regulatory burden upon permittees while maintaining adequate compliance
oversight over point source discharges, DWQ has developed the following guidance for the reduction
of monitoring frequencies in NPDES permits for specific target parameters. Standard minimum
NPDES monitoring frequencies are established in 15A NCAC 2B .0508 for discharges from facilities
with specific Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) categories. However, 2B .0508(b)(1) states: "If it
is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Director that any of the tests and measurements, sampling
points, or frequency of sampling requirements, as required in this Rule for a particular SIC group, are
not applicable to the discharge of a particular water pollution control facility, or if it can be
demonstrated that the objectives of this Section can be achieved by other acceptable means then
such requirements may be waived or modified to the extent that the Director determines to be
appropriate," This document identifies criteria to be used by DWQ that satisfies the regulatory
standard for the allowance of reduced monitoring frequencies for facilities included in SIC 4952.
This guidance applies to facilities with outstanding NPDES program compliance histories, exhibiting
effluent discharges that are excellent in both quality and consistency. Such performance will
demonstrate that compliance for particular parameters can be adequately evaluated with less
monitoring. Facilities demonstrating consistent, long-term treatment performance at levels far below
effluent limitations (<50%) may be considered for a reduction in monitoring from existing permit
frequencies to a 2/week minimum frequency for the parameters BOD5i CBODS TSS, NH3-N and fecal
coliform/enterococci (the "target parameters").
B. Approval Criteria
Individual NPDES facilities shall submit a written request to modify their NPDES permit specifying
which- parameters are to be considered for reduced monitoring . Permit holders must include with
their requests sufficient data, statistical analyses, and other information to support the justification for
reduced monitoring. NPDES permit staff shall review the application and supporting information.
Approval of reduced monitoring frequency shall be granted if all the criteria below are met:
• The facility has no more than one civil penalty assessment for permit limit violations for each
target parameter during the previous three years.
• Neither the permittee nor any of its employees have been convicted of criminal violations of the
Clean Water Act within the previous five years.
• The facility is not currently under an SOC for target parameter effluent limit noncompliance.
• The facility is not on EPA's Quarterly Noncompliance Report for target parameter limit violations.
• For BOD5i CBODS, TSS, NH3-N and TSS, the three year arithmetic mean of effluent data must be
less than fifty percent of the monthly average permit limit. For fecal coliform or enterococci, the

three year geometric mean must be less than 50 percent of the monthly average permit limit. For
parameters with summer and winter limits, an annual arithmetic mean of the seasonal limits may
be used in the calculation. _
• With the exception of fecal coliform or enferococci, no more than 15 daily sampling results over
the 3-year review period can be over 200% of the monthly average limit for BOD.5i CBODS, TSS,
or NH3-N . Values associated with documented impacts of extreme weather or events beyond the
.control of the permittee will not be included.
• For fecal coliform or enterococci, no more than 20 daily sampling results may be over 200% of the
weekly average limit. Values associated with documented impacts of extreme weather or events
beyond the control of the permittee will not be included.
• For the four target parameters, sampling results shall not show more than two non -monthly
average limit violations during the previous year.
• Reduced effluent monitoring -must not impair assessment of sensitive downstream uses, such as
endangered species. I
C. Implementation
After DWQ review and approval, the facility's NPDES permit will -be reissued with reduced monitoring
frequencies for qualified parameters. Additional NPDES permit requirements will include:
• Eligible facilities may be granted a reduction from existing permit monitoring frequencies to a
2/week minimum frequency for the four target parameters. Reductions will be made for both
effluent and influent sampling.
• Where monitoring is reduced to twice per week, it must occur on any two non-consecutive days
during the calendar week (Sunday through Saturday).
• Required monitoring frequency reductions establish new permit minimums for monitoring. As
always, facilities may monitor more often than required in the permit.
• If a reportable event, as defined by the permit (e.g., Part II (E) (6 & 9)] occurs, any facility granted
reduced monitoring frequencies will be encouraged to monitor on a daily basis until the episode is
resolved.
Monitoring frequency reduction from the minimum frequencies reductions established by the rules are
based upon consistent, exceptional performance. DWQ may revoke on a case -by -case basis these
reductions if the facility begins to perform in noncompliance with permit limits. If a facility's monitoring
reduction for a specific parameter is removed through permit modification, reconsideration of
monitoring frequency reduction will only occur three years following the revocation/permit modification
action, or at the next permit renewal.

Monitoring Frequency Reduction Request
Permit # NCO023868
The City of Burlington staff respectfully request reduced monitoring for permit # NC0023868. This
request is based on the contention that current monitoring does not offer additional levels on
environmental protection and is unnecessary to ensure permit compliance. We believe that reduced
monitoring will continue to accurately characterize the effluent of the East Burlington WWTP.
We are requesting reduced monitoring for the following parameters:
BOD5, TSS, NH3, Fecal Coliform and Bioassay
This request is consistent with DWQs guidance on reduced monitoring to reduce the regulatory burden
on permittees. We believe this request is justified based on performance data (included with this
request) of this facility. This request is also consistent with the contents of the letter submitted to NC
DWQ on February 22, 2011 from the NC Water Quality Association regarding reduction of monitoring
frequency.
An analysis of data collected over the most recent 3-year period (Jan-2010 — Dec-2012) indicates a
consistent high quality discharge at this facility.
Approval Criteria
The East Burlington WWTP is eligible for reduced monitoring based on the approval criteria contained in
the guidance regarding reduced monitoring.
• The facility has no more than one civil penalty for permit limit violations for each target
parameter during the previous three years.
• Neither the permittee nor any of its employees have been convicted of criminal violations of the
Clean Water Act within the previous five years.
• The facility is not currently under an SOC for target parameter effluent limit noncompliance
• The facility is not on EPA's Quarterly Noncompliance Report for target parameter limit violations
• The 3-year arithmetic mean for BOD5, TSS and NH3 are less than 50% of the monthly average
permit limit
• For BOD5, TSS and NH3, no more than 15 daily sample results over the 3-year review period
exceed 200% of the monthly average limit.
• For Fecal Coliform, no more than 20 daily sample results over the 3-year review period exceed
200% of the weekly average limit.
• There were no more than 2 non -monthly average limit violations during the previous year for
the four target parameters

A review of this data indicates that the 3-year arithmetic mean for BODS, TSS and NH3 is less than 50%
of the monthly average permit limit for each parameter and thereby exceeds the criteria established for

reduced monitoring. Additionally, the East Burlington WWTP exceeded the criteria established for
reduced fecal coliform monitoring (no more than 20 daily samples exceeding 200% of weekly limit).
Permit Noncompliance
As well as this facility has performed over the years, there has been an occasional permit limit violations.
The East Burlington facility experienced a single NPDES permit violations during the past 12-month
period. The facility reported a BIOASSAY FAILURE on the February 2012 DMR. A bioassay failure at this
facility is very rare. This particular incident coincided with a facility upset that required reseeding the
biological process with mixed liquor from our South Burlington facility. Within a day of reseeding,
secondary effluent quality began to improve and plant performance continued to improve over the 14
days.
We hope that the data that we have provided is sufficient to the DQW staff to approve this request for
reduced monitoring. Please feel free to contact any of the individuals listed below if you require
additional clarification or additional information regarding this issue.

SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
PART E. TOXICITY TESTING DATA
POTWs meeting one or more of the following criteria must provide the results of whole effluent toxicity tests for acute or chronic toxicity for each of the
facility's oufalls: 1) POTWs with a design flow rate greater than or equal to 1.0 MGD; 2) POTWs with a pretreatment program (or those that are required
to have one under 40 CFR Part 403); or 3) POTWs required by the permitting authority to submit data for these parameters.
• At a minimum, these results must include quarterly testing for a 12-month period within the past 1 year using multiple species (minimum of two
species), or the results from four tests performed at least annually in the four and one-half years prior to the application, provided the results
show no appreciable toxicity, and testing for acute and/or chronic toxicity, depending on the range of receiving water dilution. Do not include
information on combined sewer overflows in this section. All information reported must be based on data collected through analysis conducted
using 40 CFR Part 136 methods. In addition, this data must comply with QA/QC requirements of 40 CFR Part 136 and other appropriate QA/QC
requirements for standard methods for analytes not addressed by 40 CFR Part 136.
• In addition, submit the results of any other whole effluent toxicity tests from the past four and one-half years. If a whole effluent toxicity test
conducted during the past four and one-half years revealed toxicity, provide any information on the cause of the toxicity or any results of a
toxicity reduction evaluation, if one was conducted.
• If you have already submitted any of the information requested in Part E, you need not submit it again. Rather, provide the information
requested in question EA for previously submitted information. If EPA methods were not used, report the reasons for using alternate methods.
If test summaries are available that contain all of the information requested below, they may be submitted in place of Part E.

EAST BURLINGTON WWTP
;STONE QUARRY RD.
ALAMANCE CO.
NPDES PERMIT NO.0023868
Section I- Introduction
The East Burlington Waste Water Treatment Facility uses a 12 million gallon per day (MGD) Activated
Sludge — Activated Carbon system with carbon regeneration completed in 1980. The plant was originally
constructed in 1961 as a 6 MGD trickling filter plant. In 1993 the treatment plant was upgraded to
include chemical and biological phosphorous removal. The plant is situated on Quarry Rd. and is off NC
Highway 70 near the town or Haw River. The treated effluent is discharged into the Haw River.
Section 11- Treatment Process & Operation.
Treatment Process Summary:
The basic treatment process consists of the following elements and is explained in more detail later in
this section.
1. Pretreatment- including coarse manual bar screen, grit removal, mechanical bar screen, and
flow metering and recording.
2. Raw waste water pumping, in -line flow equalization and equalized flow pumping.
3. Chemical feed system that includes aluminum sulfate and sodium hydroxide (caustic)
4. Primary clarification
5. Activated sludge/ Activated Carbon aeration (often referred to as the "P.A.C.T process" for
Powdered Activated Carbon Treatment) including carbon makeup, polymer addition, secondary
clarification, and sludge recycling.
6. Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) — including denitrification of the return sludge and anaerobic
phosphorus release.
7. Tertiary filtration — including backwash storage and pumping.
8. Chlorination & dechlorination, cascade -type post aeration, and non -potable water reuse
9. Primary sludge handling and disposal — including gravity thickening; aerobic digestion, lime
stabilization; and land application
10. Secondary/Carbon sludge handling and carbon regeneration — including carbon sludge
thickening; high pressure wet air oxidation for sludge destruction and activated carbon
regeneration, and odor control.

Raw sewage first passes through a grit and screening removal chamber. These facilities are designed to
remove coarse settleable solids, such as rags, paper and sand from the waste stream. This process is the
first step in wastewater treatment and helps protect pumps and other equipment. The raw wastewater
(influent flow) is pumped to an equalization basin, although a bypass to the primary clarifiers has been
provided for flexibility. The equalization basin flow is mixed and aerated by 5 floating mechanical
aerators.
Subsequent flow to the plant is controlled by a series of fixed -flow pumps. This smoothing of the
hydraulic load greatly enhances plant performance and reliability.
After the equalization basin, the wastewater flows to the primary clarifiers is where settleable solids are
removed. At this stage, the settleable solids, called primary sludge, is withdrawn and thickened in
gravity thickeners. The thickened sludge is then pumped to the aerobic digester (mechanically aerated)
that was converted from an anaerobic digester. The sludge is stored there until it is lime -stabilized to
meet 40 CFR 503C regulations. Finally, the lime -stabilized sludge is applied to State -permitted farmland
under an approved Land Application program.
The primary clarifier effluent flows to anoxic/anaerobic tanks for phosphorus release after which it is
treated in two aeration basins. An alternate flow scheme puts the primary clarifier effluent directly into
the aeration basins. These basins contain activated sludge and carbon. The sludge floc characteristics
under these conditions provide both carbonaceous BOD removal and nitrification of ammonia nitrogen
in the same tank. Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC), is an aid to wastewater treatment, has been
developed by both the system suppliers and the PAC suppliers and can be applied as needed.
Next, the activated sludge/carbon is settled out in four final clarifiers. A portion of the settled
sludge/carbon is recirculated to the anoxic/anaerobic tanks or the aeration basins via an intermediate
pump station. The remaining portion of the activated sludge/carbon is wasted (pumped) to the
secondary sludge thickeners. Polymer can be added to the aeration tank effluent as the primary means
of chemical phosphorous removal.
Excess sludge from the activated sludge/carbon system is wasted to tow gravity sludge thickeners. Then
the thickened sludge/carbon slurry is treated under high pressure (700 psig) and temperature (460*F) to
completely oxidize the sludge to an inert ash and at the same time, regenerate the active pores in the
carbon. The ash is dewatered in a plate frame press and disposed of at the landfill as cover material.
Since the PAC regeneration step destroys a percentage of the PAC, virgin PAC must be added to the
regenerated PAC in order to maintain proper levels of carbon in the activated sludge (1200 — 2500mg/L).
PAC (in slurry form) is introduced into the primary effluent flowing to the aeration basins.

The secondary effluent then flows through six deep -bed Dynasand upflow filter cells. Each cell contains
seven filter modules. The filters function to recapture activated carbon and remove additional
suspended solids and BOD. The filter backwash wastewater flows back to the head of the influent or it
can be stored in the backwash storage basin and pumped back to the aeration tanks for subsequent
treatment, although generally the filter backwash water goes back to the plant influent.
Disinfection of the East Burlington treatment plant effluent is accomplished through chlorination. Two
solution feed, vacuum type chlorinators are used to supply chlorine solution to the chlorine contact
chamber. The chlorine contact chamber is also the reservoir for the treatment plant's non -potable
reuse water.
Finally, the chlorinated effluent is dechlorinated with sulfur dioxide (SO2) and receives post aeration by
cascading down a stair -step aerator. The final quantity of effluent is measured by an open channel
Parshall flume.
Nine (8) industries discharging to sewers leading to the East Burlington Wastewater Treatment Plant are
considered significant industrial users (SIU), and come under the City's pretreatment program. The
annual monitoring data is included in the Pretreatment Annual Report prepared for 2009. Some
information about these industries is included at the end of this report.
A special thanks is extended to all people who have made the operation of the East Burlington
Wastewater Treatment Facility successful this past year. These individuals cannot be thanked enough
for their dedication efforts to ensure that the facility is staffed continuously, operated effectively and
maintained properly.
NOTE. The East Burlington WWTP has three (3) stationary emergency generators on site; the
third generator was added in 2008. The first is located at the raw sewage pump station and
provides power to the raw sewage pumps. The second is located in the Zimpro solids handling
building which provides power to equipment in the building, and the third is located next to Duke
Energy's substation which provides power to the rest of the plant. in addition, the flow
equalization basin pump station and the plant operations building have "quick connect" gear
installed to connect to a portable (trailer mounted) generator.

Sludge Management Plan
East Burlington Wastewater Treatment Plant, Permit No. NCO023868
The East Burlington Wastewater Treatment Plant has two methods of disposing of treated
wastewater residuals (biosolids). Both of these methods satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR 503
regulations and the state regulations for the disposal of wastewater residuals.
The East Burlington WWTP generates approximately 6.5 million gallons (2009) of class B lime
stabilized biosolids annually for land application under non -discharge permit number WQ0000520
issued by NCDENR to the city of Burlington NC. This product is a mixture of hydrated lime and
biosolids using primary sludge. This mixture averaged 3.7 % solids during 2009.
The lime stabilization method involves the aerated storage (approximately 400,000 gallons of
storage capacity) of gravity thickened primary sludge. As space becomes available, this thickened
sludge is transferred to lime stabilization contact tanks for stabilization with hydrated lime to a pH
12 or > for over 2 hours and a pH of 11.5 or > for the remainder of the 24 hour process. This sludge
is then stored (approximately 800,000 gallons of storage capacity) and maintained at a pH 11.5 or
higher until it can be applied to the permitted farm land. Application as a liquid sludge is by surface
spray or subsurface injection. The City has 3,521 acres permitted by NCDENR for the sludge
management program. The City contracts with a biosolids management company (Synagro) to
perform the transportation and site application of the biosolids product. Synagro also assists with
the program recordkeeping and reporting. Annual reports are submitted to the USPEA and to
NCDENR.
Secondary sludge is thickened in gravity thickeners and processed through a Zimpro® wet air
oxidation unit at high pressure (840 psi) and temperature (460°F). The liquid waste stream then
goes to the activated sludge process train. The "ash" or waste solids from the process are settled in a
clarifier and dewatered with a plate -frame press to about 65% solids. These residuals are hauled to
the landfill and are incorporated as cover material.
Approximately 6.0 million gallons (2009) per year are processed through the Zimpro® process. The
solids content of the sludge stream feeding Zimpro® unit averaged 4.0%.
TCLP testing of the land application biosolids and the Zimpro® "ash" taken to the landfill has been
provided to the state in the annual reports. The 2010 data is attached to this NPDES permit
application,
