A. (1.) EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS — FINAL
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the
Permittee is authorized to discharge from outfalls 001 and 002. Such discharges shall be limited and
monitored by the Permittee as specified below for each outfall:
EFFLUENT LIMITS MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
CHARACTERISTICS
Monthly Daily Measurement Sample Type Sample Location
Average Maximum Frequency
Flow Weekly Estimate Effluent
Total Suspended Solids 30.0 mg/L 45.0 mg/L 2/Month Grab Effluent
Settleable Solids 0.1 mVL 0.2 mVL Weekly Grab Effluent
Turbidity) Weekly Grab Upstream&Downstream
Iron Weekly Grab Effluent
Total Residual Chlorine 28 pg/L Weekly Grab Effluent
Total Nitrogen2 Monthly Composite Effluent
Total Nitrogen2 (Monthly loading) Monthly Calculated Effluent
Total Nitrogen2 (Annual loading) Annually Calculated Effluent
Total Phosphorus Monthly Composite Effluent
Notes:
1. The discharge shall not cause the turbidity of the receiving water to exceed 50 NTU. If the
turbidity exceeds 50 NTU due to natural background conditions, the discharge level cannot cause
the turbidity to increase in the receiving stream.
2. See condition A. (2.) for detailed monitoring requirements.
All samples collected should be of a representative discharge.
There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.
A. (2.) Total Nitrogen Monitoring
The Permittee shall calculate annual total nitrogen mass loading as the sum of monthly
loadings, according to the following equations:
Monthly Loading (pounds) = Days x TN x Qw x 8.34
where:
Days =The number of discharge days in that month
TN = The average total nitroger.concentration (mg/L) of the composite samples collected during the
month
Qw = The average daily waste flow (MGD) on days when discharge occurs for the month
8.34 = Conversion factor, from (mg/L x MGD) to pounds
The annual mass loading is the sum of the monthly loadings for a calendar year:
Annual Mass Loading (pounds per year)= E (Monthly Loadings) for the calendar
year.
The Permittee shall report the total nitrogen concentration for each sample and the monthly
mass loading, in the appropriate monthly self-monitoring report; and the annual total
nitrogen mass loading, in the self-monitoring report for December of each year.

The following is our notice to the Division of Water Quality that we
formally withdraw our request for public hearing and do not intend to
provide further comments on the following permits for water treatment
plants, River Bend WTP 1 & 2(NC0086797) and for the First Craven Sanitary
District WTP (Draft Permit NC0060321). We take this action, specific only
to the permits listed, based on the understanding that the Division is
requiring nutrient monitoring and the processes and agents used by these
dischargers for filter backwash are managed strictly to minimize, to the
greatest extent possible, additional nutrient loading in the Neuse Estuary.
I appreciate your assistance in forwarding me the information on these
permits.

Summary
A request was received from the applicant to permit the 2 WTPs on Shoreline Drive north of the town. The
combined flow of 16,000 gpd was a burden to the Town's WWTP,due to population growth in the area. Both WTPs
discharge to Plantation Canal and the two facilities have identical treatment components. It is most expedient to
permit the two WTPs under one permit,given their close physical proximity and common receiving stream. A staff
report from the Washington Regional Office agreed to issuance of the permit,provided limits for phosphorus and
pH were included. Phosphorus monitoring has been included in the draft but pH monitoring has not,as DWQ
policy for WTPs does not require pH monitoring.
The draft permit has the expanded nutrient monitoring present in all Neuse River basin permits,pursuant to the
Division's informal agreement with the Neuse River Foundation (NRF). The NRF has agreed to waive objections to
issuance of non-nutrient loaded discharge permits,provided that nutrient monitoring is conducted by those facilities.
The nutrient monitoring requirements in the draft permit are consistent with nutrient monitoring regimen in other
Neuse River WTP permits.
The receiving stream is not impaired or threatened. Plantation Canal does not appear on the latest 303(d) list.
Downstream impairment to the Trent River is not attributed to point sources.

Subj: NPDES Permit application
Dear Mr. Weaver:
On November 5, 1999, I received your letter requesting additional information concerning our
request for a discharge permit to discharge backwash water from our two water treatment plants.
There are two justifications for this discharge:
• The discharge would be into a canal that has little or no flow except during heavy rains. It
is hoped that the flow provided by the discharge would help to eliminate stagnation in the
canal and aid in the prevention of algae growth on the canal surface.
• We are exploring the possibility of extending sewer service to areas of the town that
currently are served by septic tanks. There is also proposed development in areas of the
town that would require sewer service. These additional sewer connections would bring
the waste water treatment plant near its permitted capacity. Removing the 16,000 gallons
per day backwash water from the plant flow would lessen the chance of hydraulic over load
and therefore provide a more efficient treatment operation.
I am enclosing a map showing where the two discharge points would be located on the canal.
If there are any further questions,please contact me at 252-638-3540 or at 45 Shoreline Drive, River
Bend, NC 28562.
Sincerely,
"437)(gri___.
