Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO086894
Robeson County Water Department
Raemon Well Water Treatment Plant (WTP)
Robeson County
The Division of Water Resources (the Division) hereby issues the attached NPDES permit for the subject facility.
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.
The changes between this permit and the previous permit include the following:
In accordance with the NPDES Permitting Strategy for WTP's (2009), facilities discharging greater than
50,000 gpd are required to install a continuous recorder to monitor wastewater discharge flows. As a
result, continuous flow monitoring has been added to your permit. The Town will have 18 months from
the effective date of this permit to install a continuous flow meter. Until then instantaneous
measurements can be taken with the duration of discharge to be noted in log books and a total daily
discharge reported on the DMR.
• The flow limit is removed.
• Turbidity monitoring is added with twice (2) per month monitoring.
• Total Iron, Manganese and Fluoride monitoring is quarterly.
• Total Copper, Phosphorous, Nitrogen monitoring is added with quarterly sampling.
• Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity testing is added with quarterly sampling in January, April, July and
October.
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.

A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL MONITORING (QUARTERLY)
The permittee shall conduct quarterly chronic toxicity tests using test procedures outlined in the "North
Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised December 2010, or subsequent
versions.
The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure document is 90%. The testing
shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 7-day pass/fail test. The tests will be performed during the
months of January, April, July and October. These months signify the first month of each three
month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing must be
obtained during representative effluent discharge and shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final
effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
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
TGP3B. Additionally, DWR Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Environmental Sciences Section
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, N.C. 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental 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 there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is
required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test
form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report
with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the
Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then
monthly monitoring will begin immediately. Upon submission of a valid test, this monthly test
requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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.
If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit, the results of such
monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the data submitted on the DMR & all AT
Forms submitted.

NPDES Permit NCO086894
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control
organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, 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.
A. (3.) 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):

following address:
NC DENR / DWR / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 276994617
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.

NPDES Permit NC00868'94
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:
http://portal.ncdenr.or web/wq/admin/boa/ipu/edmr
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due on the last day of the month following
the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the
commencement of discharge.
2. Si natory Requirements (Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and supersedes Section B. (11.) (d)1
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described in Part II,
Section B. (I 1.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II,

RESPONSE:
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 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.
X I concur with issuance of the above permit provided the following conditions are met:
While the closest NC surface water treatment plant intake potentially affected by this discharge_is
located approximately 8 miles upstream and would therefore not be impacted, there may be surface
water treatment plant intakes located downstream in South Carolina that may be.
I oppose the issuance of the above permit based on reasons stated below, or attached:

Renewal 2014 -- NPDES Permit NCO086894
Page 1

Flow measurement was changed from Instantaneous to Continuous flow in accordance with NPDES
permitting strategies for potable water treatment plants. The maximum, monthly average discharge in the
most recent three year period (Mar2011-1762014) for this facility is 0.114 MGD (see attached spreadsheet
for flow data). Continuous monitoring is required for facilities discharging greater than 50,000 gpd. The
Permittee has 18 months from the effective date of this permit to install a flow meter to that is capable of
recording Continuous flow. Duration of discharge should be noted in log books and a Total daily discharge
reported on the DMR.
Toxici — With an IWC >0.25%, this permit requires Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) testing
using Ceriodaphnia dubia to be performed as a 7-day pass/fail test at 90% effluent concentration, during
January, April, July and October [TGP3B].
For Renewal —For Renewal —This permit reflects discharge at Outfall 001. DWR updated the facility
description and Map; added parameter codes to Section A. (L); added Electronic Reporting - Discharge
Monitoring Reports page; added Turbidity 2/month; added continuous flow monitoring; added quarterly
monitoring for Total Copper, Phosphorous, Nitrogen; monitoring for Total Iron, Fluoride and Manganese
changed to quarterly; and added Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity testing.
Stream — Discharge from WTP for outfall 001 is into an Unnamed Tributary to First Swamp [Stream
Segment 14-34-11-3]. The segment is not currently listed as impaired in the 2012 North Carolina 303(d)
or Integrated Reports.
RPA — A Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) was conducted on Iron and Fluoride effluent parameters data
because Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) reported concentration above method -detection levels
(MDLs) for the past four and one half (4 1/2) years (Sept2009-1762014). [See attached RPA summary
sheets.]

Susan,
We will be adding Toxicity Testing to the Draft for NC0086894 Robeson Co-Raemon Well WTP. We have determined
that this system needs to be permitted using the Conventional WTP strategy instead of the previous Greensand. What
months for sampling should I put in the permit? I used January, April, July and October in the draft. I have two other
permits for Robeson County like this one that will need toxicity testing added.
Thanks,
Derek
