ACUTE TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on a quarterly basis using protocols defined in the North Carolina Procedure Document entitled "Pass/Fail Methodology For Determining Acute Toxicity In A Single Effluent Concentration." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as a 24 hour composite. The effluent concentration at which there may be at no time significant acute mortality is 90% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge below all waste treatment. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of February, May, August, and November. 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 TGE6C. Additionally, DEM Form AT-2 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Water Quality 4401 Reedy Creek Road 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 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 any test data from either these monitoring requirements 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 and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. r. . ,i t. , TOWN of MARSHALL WWTP/ (NC0021733) 10/28/96 COMMENTS ON DRAFT PERMIT No comments from the general public.

Facility Name Town of Marshall WWTP Permit # NC0021733 Pipe # 001 ACUTE TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on a quarterly basis using protocols defined in the North Carolina Procedure Document entitled "Pass/Fail Methodology For Determining Acute Toxicity In A Single Effluent Concentration." The monitoring shall be performed as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales prome-las 24 hour static test, using effluent collected as .a 24 hour composite. The effluent concentration at which there may be at no time significant acute mortality is 90 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge below all waste treatment. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of February,. May, August, and November. 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 TGE6C. Additionally, DEM Form AT-2 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management 4401 Reedy Creek Road 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 doselresponse 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 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 any test data from either these monitoring requirements or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management 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 retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure .to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. 7Q10 Permitted Flow IWC Basin & Sub -basin Receiving Stream County 535 cfs 0.040 MGD 0.12 04-03-04 French Broad River Madison QAL PIF Fathead 24 Version 9191 Recommended by: 7.- = = Date - z6 Keough Facility Name: NPDES No.: Type of Waste: Facility Status: Permit Status: Receiving Stream: Stream Classification: Subbasin: County: Regional Office: Requestor: Date of Request: Topo Quad: Town of Marshall WWTP N00021733 x % Domestic Existing Renewal French Broad River C 04-03-04 Madison Asheville Wilson 6/ 17/96 D8SW % Industrial Request # 8495 Stream Characteristic: USGS # Date: Drainage Area (mi2): Summer 7010 (cfs): Winter 7010 (cfs): Average Flow (cfs): 30Q2 (cfs): IWC (%): est. 03.4535.0000 1987 ? 1,338 535 • 682 _ 2,488 - 1,030 0.12 % Tab eP 966-- 6 1976: Secondary limits recommended for 0.085 mgd. 1977: re -modeled with secondary limits recommended 1982: re -issued with secondary limits 1987: re -issued with secondary limits and addition of acute toxicity test at 90% [Fathead Minnow 24 hr - No Significant Mortality] - speculative for expansion to 0.400 mgd also recommended secondary limits 1988: remodeled with secondary limits recommended for 0.400 mgd _ SOC also submitted for flow violations. 1991: monitoring for metals and continuation of toxicity test recommended due to metal finisher 1993: re -issued with secondary limits, metals and nutrient monitoring, and an acute toxicity test Basin Plan chapter 4 indicates 'the French Broad mainstem; data from all programs indicate Good -Fair water quality.

I personally think semi-annual ( 2 x 5 years = 10) or quarterly (4 x 5 years = 20) monitoring would be better with out too much expense but hey, if they get monthly we won't try to tell you guys or P&E how to do their job.

From: Tom Poe on Jul 23, 1996 11:51 AM Subject: Marshall To: Farrell Keough; Melanie Bryson per discussion yesterday: The Town of Marshall's ORC and Pretreatment Coordinator is Mike Ladd. He does his required monitoring and updates his Headworks Analysis as needed. The Town of Marshall is a modified program. The town's only SIU, is a metal finisher that discharges approx 2,000 - 4,000 gpd. Derringer has just recently installed new pretreatment eqpt. including ultra filtration and the data indicates that metals including Cadmium are now often below detect. The monitoring per the modeling worksheet or pretreatment LTMP is OK with the pretreatment group.

STEVENS^'s"¢ _= NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY ASHEVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE WATER QUALITY SECTION August 1, 2000 MEMORANDUM TO: Dave Goodrich THROUGH: Forrest Westal FROM: Linda Wiggs Vl I .I i DEiiR - Vlf�TEt UU1�LIiY PONT 50L!KE URAiiCli SUBJECT: French Broad River Reclassification and Affected Facilities A use attainability study was recently performed on several rivers in the French Broad River Basin. A report submitted to the Planning Branch in April 2000 recommends reclassification from class "C" to class "B" waters for several of these rivers, documenting the extensive recreational use in these mountains streams. Of these rivers, the French Broad River and Bent Creek have permitted NPDES dischargers that do not disinfect their wastewater. In addition, several dischargers are not required to monitor up and downstream of their discharge. To protect the existing swimming use in these rivers, the Asheville Regional Office is requesting that the NPDES group review the following facilities whose permits are up for renewal and require Fecal Coliform effluent limits as well as upstream and downstream monitoring. Please refer to page 16 of 15A NCAC 2B.0500 regarding monitoring requirements in all appropriate situations. Also note that the classes of facilities are provided on the attachment.
