Stadium Drive Eden, NC 27288 Subject: Issuance Renewal NPDES Permit NPDES Permit NCO025071 City of Eden Mebane Bridge WWTP Rockingham County Dear Mr. Corcoran: Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge 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). This final permit includes two major changes from the second draft permit send to you on October 30, 2008. > The Ammonia Nitrogen calculated April 1- October 31 weekly average limit should not be corrected from the September 24, 20008 Draft. The ammonia nitrogen policy developed between the EPA and the state does required both a monthly and weekly average limit once the monthly limit is required. In this case the weekly average limit is set at 35.0 mg/L. ➢ The Total Silver quarterly monitoring has been removed from this permit. It is redundant since Total Silver quarterly monitoring and reporting is required as part of the pretreatment program. If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit.

EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS) Notes: 1. Sample locations: Upstream - Upstream at NCSR 1964; Downstream - Downstream at NCSR 700. Upstream and downstream samples shall be grab samples. Stream samples shall be collected three times per week during June, July, August and September and once per week during the remaining months of the year. 2. The monthly average BODs and TSS concentrations shall not exceed 15% of the respective influent value (85% removal). 3. The pH shall not be less than 6.0 standard units nor greater than 9.0 standard units. 4. Total Residual Chlorine compliance is required for chlorine or chlorine derivative used for disinfection. The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values reported below 50 ug/1 to' be in compliance with the permit. However, the Permittee shall continue to record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified), even if these values fall below 50 ug/l. 5. Provisional limit and monitoring shall apply as stated in Special Condition A.(4.). Until the limit takes effect or is removed, 2/Month monitoring is required. 6. Sampling for zinc, copper, and silver should coincide with sampling for chronic toxicity test. 7. Chronic Toxicity (Ceriodaphnia) P/F at 5.4%. Toxicity testing shall be performed in the months of March, June, September and December (see Part A.(2.). 8. Limit is an instantaneous maximum (i.e. not to be exceeded at any time) not a daily maximum. 9. See Special Condition A.(3.) for list of pollutants. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. Permit NCO025071 A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 5.4%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterlu monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September and December. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic ' Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised - February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 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, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. 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, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement 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, 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. Permit NCO025071 ; A. (3.)

These SIUs are regulated through the City's pretreatment program. At the request of the permittee, June 2006, the permitted flow was reinstated to its previous 13.5 MGD compliance limits and monitoring because of increased industrial influent flow. Since its discharge is 22 miles upstream of the water supply intake for Danville, Virginia, a color limit (instantaneous maximum) of 300 ADMI was required. The 300 ADMI limit is based on a 1990 color mass balance model that was used for previous color limit determinations at various permitted flows and is still considered valid. Since June 2006 the permittee has failed to meet its effluent color limit only 1 out of the 12 reported measurements. However, the instream color monitoring data shows no definable impacted on the downstream station located approximately 4 miles below the discharge. Danville was provided a copy of the draft for comment. The latest USGS steam data was used to recalculate the IWC and other related dilution factors. The IWC % increased to 5.35% and was applied where applicable. Because the receiving stream classification is WS, will submit draft for DEH approval. Also, because of impact on aquatic species discussed in previous renewal will submit draft copy to NC Wildlife Resources Commission for comment. Since the receiving stream is the water supply for Danville Virginia, will submit draft for Virginia Department of Health approval. A copy will be sent to the City of Danville for comment.

Bryant, Regional Coordinator Habitat Conservation Program Division of Marine Fisheries 1721 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Subject: NPDES Proposed Permit Response Permit Number NCO025071 City of Eden Mebane Bridge W WTP Rockingham County Dear Ms. Bryant: The Division reviewed the comments in your October 23, 2008 letter for the Mebane Bridge facility. We have the following additional information to offer and will convey to the City of Eden your concerns about the impact to the diverse aquatic community in the Dan River. The Mebane Bridge facility is a domestic treatment facility with an active pretreatment program for it industrial sources that has a monthly average treated effluent discharge less than 7,000,000 gallons per day. Mebane Bridge currently has a Total Chlorine Residual (TRC) acute limit, 28 µg/1, that will be continued in the renewal permit. During the last permit cycle Mebane Bridge had no TRC violations. Mebane Bridge uses chlorination followed by declorination. Since June 2005 Mebane Bridge has passed all twelve of its quarterly effluent chronic toxicity tests and the required four second species toxicity tests. There is sufficient power back up capability to operate this facility. Mebane Bridge is conducting routine instream Fecal Coliform testing at the same time as it is testing for Fecal Coliform in its discharge. This testing has demonstrated the source of high Fecal Coliform in Dan River is not Mebane Bridge. Ammonia as nitrogen, considered a toxic parameter, is limited in the current permit during the summer months and will continue to be limited in the summer in the renewal permit. No ammonia nitrogen limit violations have occurred in the current active permit. New stream flow data from USGS was used to recalculate the renewal permit required ammonia nitrogen limit, 14.8 mg/l a monthly average. The levels of metals reported routinely to the Division for the effluent, some potential toxic parameters, were evaluated for possible potential to exceed water quality standards. No possible potential to exceed water quality standards were found except for one mercury reading. The mercury reading was not consistent with the other mercury data available. Consequently, in the renewal permit Mebane Bridge will be required to supply sufficient data to prove mercury is not a concern in the effluent or a limit will be imposed. The Division will issue the renewal permit with a 18 month provisional compliance condition for mercury and will advise the City of Eden that in future application alternative disinfection methods should be considered. If you have any questions, please contact Ron Berry at telephone number (919) 807-6403.

Bryant, Piedmont Region Coordinator Habitat Conservation Program DATE: 23 October 2008 SUBJECT: Proposed Permit Renewal for Mebane Bridge W WTP, City of Eden, Rockingham County, NPDES Pem it No. NC0025071 Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the subject document. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended), Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d), North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 et seq.), and North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 10I.0102. The City of Eden has applied for renewal of its NPDES permit to discharge treated combined domestic wastewater into Dan River in the Roanoke River basin. According to the public notice, total residual chlorine (TRC), mercury, phenolic compounds, ammonia nitrogen, and color are water quality limited. Dan River supports a diverse aquatic community and there are records for the federal and state endangered Roanoke logperch (Percina rez), the federal species of concern and state endangered green floater (Lasmigona subvirdis), the state threatened bigeye jumprock (Scartomyzon ariommus), and the state significantly rare Roanoke hogsucker (Hypentelium roanokense) in Dan River. We offer the following recommendations to reduce impacts to aquatic resources, particularly to the Roanoke logperch. 1. If the facility uses chlorine disinfection, chlorine systems should be replaced by ultraviolet light or ozone systems. Chlorine is acutely toxic to aquatic organisms and can form secondary compounds that are detrimental to aquatic life. 2. If not already in place, a stand-by power system should be installed.

However, to be consistent with Division policy we will continue to list the expanded capacity willbe deemed null rmit page in the renewal permit. When you rescind the Dry Creek NPDES permit all p pages and void. The 18 months timetable to meet TRC compliance, 28 µgli, is per the Division standard policy to allow you a one time opportunity to install the necessary equipment to meet the imposed TRC limit. We acknowledge the City of Eden plans are to close this facility and cease discharge prior to the 18 month e in ce with deadline.

Mebane Bridge NCO025071 The evaluation to determine if a pollutant parameter has the possible potential to exceed any applicable water quality standards is part of the normal permit review process and is based on the most recent 48 month data you have submitted through DMRs or PPAs.

Salisbury Stree4 Raleigh, North Carolina 2764 An Equal opponunilylAflinnative Action Employer There is one major correction the Division will make, the provisional mercury compliance limit should not go into effect until 18 months after the permit effective date. During the first 18 months 2/Month monitoring is required. If after the first 12 months of monitoring you feel the data show no reasonable potential to exceed the mercury compliance limit then you can petition the Division in writing to remove the mercury limit and reduce the monitoring frequency back to the pretreatment condition of quarterly without reopening the permit. If no petition is received or the Division evaluation of the first 12 months mercury data does not support the removal of the mercury compliance limit, the mercury compliance limit with weekly monitoring is required beginning after the 18 month provisional timeline. The 2/Month monitorimg is consistent with Division policy for NPDES effluent monitored parameters for your facility. Unfortunately, we can only reduce the mercury monitoring under the terms specified in the provisional limit. Per your written request we provide the following statue quote: The aesthetic problem, odor and taste, is defined under North Carolina Statute 15A NCAC 02B .0216 (3) "Quality standards applicable to Class WS-NWaters are asfollows:" (e) "Chlorinated phenolic compounds: not greater than I.o µg/I to protect water supplies from taste and odor problems due to chlorinated phenols shall be allowed. Specfnc phenolic compounds may be given a different limit if it is demonstrated not to cause taste and odor problems and not to be detrimental to other best usage" After verification of which available data defines chlorinated phenolic compounds the Division re- evaluated the possible potential to exceed the chlorinated phenolic compounds water quality standard and has concluded no potential exist and no limits is required. Monitoring requirements will revert out phenols back to pretreatment total phenols requirements. If you uthave anyThrenewalfurther concerns permit be corre t d monitoring you should contact the DWQ p group. accordingly. The Fact Sheet will be revised to read as follows: PhenolLc s - Monitoring is part of ater quality standard. aesthetic standard dealing with odor and last-, pretreatment ic requiredfor chlorinated phenolic compounds because the receiving stream. Dan River, is ctasstf%d as a WS. Evaluation of available PPA data indicates all chlorinated phenolic compounds are below detection limits so no father action is required. Future permit renewals will include evaluation of the PPA datafor chlorinated phenolic compounds. A corrected draft permit for Mebane Bridge NC0025071 will be issued for further comments and approval.

We understand the changes being proposed and the reasoning behind these changes, but we still wish to comment on a few of these changes. Concerning the permit renewal for the Dry Creek W WTP, #NC0025151, there was only one major change noted along with directives to go along with a plant expansion. We will not be pursuing a plant expansion. I'm not sure if this section could be removed, but it will not be needed for the future. We are currently looking at plans for closing Dry Creek permanently and rerouting all flows to the Mebane Bridge Plant. As for the TRC limit, we have reviewed the plant layout and have determined that modifications to the effluent structure would have to be in place before we could effectively chlorinate and dechlorinate. This pushes us further in our desire to close the Dry Creek plant. We are hoping to have plans in place within a year to have all flows diverted before the end of 2009. This should keep us within the 18 month timeline that will be imposed to meet the new TRC limit. Concerning the permit renewal for the Mebane Bridge W WTP, #NC0025071, there were several major changes noted but we only wish to comment on two. We see no problems with the new effluent weekly average maximum limit. We have always seen results less than our current monthly average, so meeting the new limit should not be a problem. We have no problems with the reduction in silver monitoring as well. P. O. Box 70 • Eden, NC 27289-0070 • (336) 627-1009 • Fax (336) 627-9968 We are, though, concerned about the increased monitoring for Mercury as well as the weekly average maximum limit. We have already budgeted for our annual analysis and this increase in testing was not planned for. For as far back as 2001, we have consistently shown < 0.0002 mg/L Mercury in our Effluent. The majority of our Influent data has also been < 0.0002 mg/L with only five data points being above the detection limit. Only one date showed a hit of 0.0011 mg/L in the Effluent while the Influent for that day was 0.0008 mg/L. We feel strongly that this was an erroneous reading either from contamination through sampling or the analysis itself. Nothing could be identified at the time to prove a lab error, but with the Effluent being higher than the Influent, an error would have had to occur. It is not feasible that we would produce Mercury in our operation. We understand the protocol for reasonable potential, but I'm asking that you reconsider the length of time for required conditional monitoring. We ask that it be reduced to 3 — 6 months with the understanding that if another hit occurs, we will continue the bi-monthly sampling for the rest of the permit term. Our other concern is with the newly imposed Phenol limit. We are not aware of any aesthetic problems with the downstream drinking water supply or do we foresee any problems contributed from our plant due to the size of the stream that we discharge into. First, we would like to see a Fact Sheet that shows how this limit was initially established. Next, we ask that you consider a conditional monitoring requirement for a 3 — 6 month period for this parameter with the understanding that if we have any results above the limit, we will continue monitoring bi-monthly. Otherwise, we can revert back to monitoring quarterly for the duration of the permit. We know there have been a few results near or above the new proposed limit, but again, we feel that some amount of lab error could have contributed to these results. In the past year, we have switched private labs due to some continual problems and have worked on improving our sampling techniques from within. Due to the difficulty of treating Phenol once it comes into the plant, we ask that we be given a chance to prove that there is not a problem. These above mentioned concerns are all that we have at this time. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss these issues with your office and present a response for your review. We will soon lose our largest industrial contributor which will surely impact the overall makeup of our stream. It will also have a detrimental financial impact on our facility as well as the community as a whole. Any reconsideration of these matters will be appreciated. Sincerely, Melinda S.

They double checked their results and only total phenol was run each quarter. We did just get our recent 625 results back and chlorinated phenol is listed on page 4 as ND. The lab sheets received from the lab are attached. I hope that these few data points will be enough to show that we do not have a problem with chlorinated phenols.

Told Melinda only interested in 2006 to 2nd quarter 2008, as these values were used in RPA. Melinda : As far as what data was provided in report , not sure any value other than total phenolic shown. Would check one report and let me know. Provided contact person at Meritech Lab. Using Pace after 2nd quarter 2008. Would ask Pace about how value was determined, is breakdown possible. Paw 14L Chris k', Meriteck, Inc. Phone: (336) 342- 4748 Client: City of Eden Ron: Alerted Melinda I would call lab and see if missing data was available. If data not available, not measured, then would remove data from RPA. If lab required the client to make the request or additional cost I would contact Melinda accordingly (email preferred). Other 3 PPAs data points in RPA is total phenolic but chlorinated phenolic data also available. All chlorinated data on 3 RPAs is below detection limits and as such means no hits on RPA. If no other data is available then chlorinated phenolic limit/monitoring will be dropped from permit. We discussed current LMTP plan for quarterly monitor total phenols, not sure why, previous requirement. Are running both influent and effluent samples for comparison. Suggested the City of Eden may want to follow up with PERC unit if the NPDES has no limit/monitoring requirement. Mercury Comments: Noted in letter City of Eden had no comment on imposed mercury limit. Advised the limit start was an error, should have been 18 months from effective date as a provisional limit. At the end of the first 12 months the City of Eden could petition DWQ to see if limit could be dropped, reduce monitoring back to quarterly. Would not drop mercury compliance or 2/Month if data had values above expected limit. If mercury compliance required then City of Eden would need to pursue identifying source and addressing accordingly. Mercury expected limit is a weekly average. To take advantage of this fact, other Permittee have taken extra 7 day samples and held for testing if needed. Maybe a good way of addressing lab concerns. Suggest you talk with lab about holding extra samples. Regardless any data generated has to be reported. Will formally reply with these comments in response to letter.

Unless the City of Eden specified a further breakdown the only number generated would be total phenol. This can be determined by looking at the data supplied when a value was detected, other data will be listed if requested. Mr. Pawlak would be able to answer the question from his side if you would provide, the sample day, chain of custody info. Please check one of the quarterly lab reports were the total phenols were above 10 µg/l and see if any additional phenolic compound data was reported. As an alternative you can give Mr. Pawlak the information he needs and see if he confirms no data beyond total phenols. If it is determined no data beyond total phenols is reported then I need the City of Eden to respond with statement to that effect.

Have questions about back up power for both facilities. Had question about instream fecal monitoring for Mebane Creek. Melinda Ward, at the request of Mr. Potter, returned the call and provided the following information. The Mebane Bridge WWTP shares stand by/back up electrical generation with the WTP. The system is physically located at the WTP and is sufficient to provide.100% power to both the WTP and the WWTP. The Dry Creek WWTP does not have back up power it uses tablet chlorination. The existing automated pager/alarm system is independent and will function during a power outage. The instream fecal monitoring for Mebane Bridge WWTP begun in late 2006, was initiated at the request of the Dan River Association to address fecal concerns. The data is being send with the DMR as required by the terms and conditions of the NPDES permit. Low -flow characteristics for Dan River at Eden ... Re: Request For Data... Subject: Low -flow characteristics for Dan River at Eden ... Re: Request For Data for Dan River From: John C Weaver <jcweaver@usgs.gov> Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:50:53 -0400 To: Ron Berry <Ron.Berry@ncmai1.net> CC: John C Weaver <jcweaver@usgs.gov> Ron, In response to your inquiry about selected flow characteristics (7Q10, 30Q2, winter 7Q10, average annual flow) for the Dan River at Eden just downstream of its confluence with Smith River in north central Rockingham County, the following information is provided: A check of the low -flow files here at the USGS North Carolina Water Science Center does not indicate a previous determination of low -flow characteristics for Dan River at the specific location indicated by the lat/long coordinates you provided in your email. However, the drainage -area files have a station number and approximate drainage area for this location (station id 02074018, drainage area approx 1,700 sqmi). The low -flow files do indicate a previous determination for the Dan River downstream at NC Hwy 14 (station id 02074021, drainage area 1,680 sqmi) that was completed in July 1988. No USGS discharge records are known to exist for your point of interest. In the absence of streamflow, records sufficient for a low -flow analysis, low -flow characteristics are determined by assessing a range of low -flow yields (expressed as flow per sqmi drainage area, or cfsm) at nearby sites where such characteristics have been determined. Several pieces of information to consider: (1) The most recent low -flow information published for streams in Rockingham County is in a basinwide low -flow report completed in 1996. It is USGS Water -Resources Investigations Report 96-4154, "Low -flow characteristics and profiles for selected streams in the Roanoke River Basin, North Carolina" (Weaver, 1996). An online version of the report is available through hftp://pubs.er.usgs.gov/pubs/wri/wri964154. The report provides the low -flow characteristics (based on data through 1994) for continuous -record gaging stations and partial -record sites within the Roanoke basin. The report also provides low -flow discharge profiles (7Q10, 30Q2, winter 7Q10, and 7Q2) for the reaches of Dan River and Roanoke River in North Carolina as well as selected tributaries within the basin. If you access the report, please note the online report files are provided in the ".DJVU" format and require a particular Lizardtech plug-in, also available through a link displayed on the page. Or you can click an adjacent link that will allow you to view the report as a group of images without the need for a plug-in. (2) This report includes low -flow discharge profiles for Dan River. Information in the report specific to Dan River is as follows: (a) Page 29 -- Brief discussion concerning development of profiles for Dan River. Please keep in mind the information concerning NPDES permits is based on those in effect as of 1995. (b) Page 30, figure 15 -- (A) Drainage -area and (B) low -flow discharge profiles. Based on the low -flow discharge profiles shown for Dan River, the low -flow characteristics just downstream the confluence with Smith River (drainage area 1,680 sqmi at NC Hwy 14): 7Q10 = approx. 370 cfs (equivalent to 0.22 cfsm) 30Q2 = approx. 740 cfs (equivalent to 0.44 cfsm) 1 of 3 8/20/2008 7:54 AM Low -flow characteristics for Dan River at Eden ... Re: Request For Data... winter 7Q10 = approx. 600 cfs (equivalent to 0.36 cfsm) (c) Page 16, table 6 -- Low -flow characteristics (including 7Q10, 30Q2, and winter 7Q10 discharges) for several sites on Dan River located near of your point of interest: Sta. 02071000, Dan River near Wentworth (drainage area 1,035 sqmi) Average annual flow estimated at 1.2 cfsm 7Q10 = 175 cfs (equivalent to 0.1691 cfsm) 30Q2 = 415 cfs (equivalent to 0.4010 cfsm) winter 7Q10 = 360 cfs (equivalent to 0.3478 cfsm) Sta. 02071500, Dan River at Eden (just upstream of confluence with Smith River, drainage area 1,133 sqmi) Average annual flow estimated at 1.1 cfsm 7Q10 = 190 cfs (equivalent to 0.1677 cfsm) 30Q2 = 440 cfs (equivalent to 0.3884 cfsm) winter 7Q10 = 375 cfs (equivalent to 0.3310 cfsm) Sta. 02074000, Smith River at Eden (drainage area 538 sqmi) Average annual flow estimated at 1.2 cfsm 7Q10 = 175 cfs (equivalent to 0.3253 cfsm) 30Q2 = 290 cfs (equivalent to 0.5390 cfsm) winter 7010 = 215 cfs (equivalent to 0.3996 cfsm) (3) Updated low -flow analyses for the active sites at 02071000 and 02074000 (based on period of record through the 2007 climatic year) suggest that 7Q10 discharge values have decreased about 3.5 and 13.7 percent, respectively, as a result of the 1998-2002 drought conditions. The climatic year is the standard annual period used for low -flow analyses at continuous -record gaging stations and runs from April 1 through March 31, designated by the year in which the period begins. Please keep in mind the Dan River is regulated by the flow releases from the Talbott and Townes Reservoirs used for storage of water to operate the Pinnacles hydroelectric plant. Likewise, Smith River is regulated by Philpott Lake located approximately 40 miles upstream in Virginia. Putting together the above pieces leads to the conclusion that low -flow estimates shown in the low -flow profiles for the confluence of Dan River and Smith River can still be considered reasonable and appropriate in view of the data provided for the nearby locations in the Roanoke low -flow report.

Much of the data that had been included by the previous superintendent was more than was needed. Ralph Potter, our chief operator, went through the results to verify each analysis result, limit, and procedure. Some of the information was confusing due to different labs doing the analysis and reporting different detection limits and names of compounds testing. We have corrected the supplemental sheet to go along with the data requested and have included a copy of this corrected form along with the corresponding lab reports. We are also including copies of our Fathead minnow test results to make sure that everything is accounted for.

I still need you to submit the 3 actual PPAs that are used to generate the data on the 2A Form (Mebane Bridge) and confirm the data matches. Based on the submittal of your renewal application it would appear 2004, 2005, 2006 PPAs should have been used. As far as mercury I still need to determine what is the reason for Method 1631 on the PPA. The person I need to ask is not in today. Unless I contact you otherwise the current mercury data will be used. Regardless I will let you know what future PPA mercury analysis method are required. Your internal mercury test are separate and are in compliance with current DWQ policy. For Dry Creek we will move forward with the application. I will include documentation for the file to describe the relationship to the Railroad pump station. If you have any questions let me know.

About 3 times a year the pump station is unable to handle the influent (mechanical, flow, etc) and the level rises in the pump sump. Eventually the increasing level will activate a high level alarm at the Mebane Bridge W WTP and spill into a splitter box that gravity feeds the excess to the Dry Creek WWTP system. The operator investigates the alarm and takes the necessary actions to stop the overflow to the Dry Creek W WTP. The issue is color and per the conditions in the permit Dry Creek an overflow initiates compliance sampling as each overflow event occurs. There is no treatment capability to remove color at the Dry Creek plant. The pH shift at Dry Creek is more related to instrumentation improvements, not any particular process changes. Dry Creek is basically unmanned. Ralph asked about upcoming changes in the permit. At this time TRC will have a compliance limit imposed and it will be most likely be 28 µg/L, not 28mg/L. Also, DWQ will look at DO. Existing data show 3 months of DO data below the 5 mg/ L WQ standard. At this time not aware of any other changes. Dry Creek uses etc rination and does not use dechlorination. Existing closed pipe runs 1 to 1-1/2 miles from p t jo pan AtC has pleted for expansion the permit will duplicated existing text in renewal permit. Based on current information application is sufficient and will proceed with renewal. Best guess on why only requiring downstream sampling is there is existing instream sampling at facilities upstream that provide the same data. Notes on Mebane Bridge Has an approved pre-treatment program and is 1.000 MGD facility which means EPA will review. Based on fall 2006 letter from DWQ permittee to provide 3 PPAs whose average values will be reported on application Form 2A. In addition 4 toxicity tests using a different species are to be provided. The mercury test method 1631 applies for PPA. Ralph to (1) check PPA data against data recorded on application, correct data on florm where required, and submit corrected form and 3 PPA. Mercury method 1631 was not use. Currently, per DWQ policy tie pre-treatment program uses method 245 which in turn is what is used for PPA. All PPA mercury data is below detection limit for method 245. Told Ralph not to rerun PPA mercury unless directed to do so at a later date. Toxicity test were completed in mid 2006. Test results attached to DMR reports. DWQ has not evaluated Mebane Bridge DMR data so the only pending addition is TRC compliance, probably 28 µg/L.

Other Special Items: NPDES Permit Staff Report Version 10/92 Page 3 PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The existing permit allows a permitted flow of 13.5 mgd or 10.0 mgd. The higher flow has a color limit of 300 ADMI and the lower flow allows a 405 ADMI color limit. In June 2006, Eden chose to operate the plant at the 13.5 mgd flow limit. For a few months prior the 10.0 mgd limit was being used. The flow averages approximately 7 MGD. Limits are consistently met. Recommend that the permit be reissued with the two flow limits.

Of the 20 listed facilities, WSRO indicates that 2 have connected, and 2 should have a Special Condition placed in the draft permit renewal requesting a Wastewater Management Plan to address compliance problems (see below): * NCO021075 Town of Madison- no longrer discharging, connected to Mayodan * NCO028011 Town of Stonevills- no longer discharging, connected to Mayodan * NCO059251 Quail Acres MHP- Require Wastewater Management Plan * NCO040011 Yanceyville WWTP- Require Wastewater Management Plan Mike T prepared a generic Wastewater Management Plan Special Condition that can be tailored to the problems at the specific facility, and permit writers should discuss with -him. If you think some other facilities on the list might need a Special Condition, please discuss with Tedder. I'll put copies of the WSRO comments in the NPDES files, to alert the assigned permit writers of the additional requirements. For the remaining Roanoke Basin, I've already received feedback from WARO, and I'm still awaiting RRO feedback (due to us by Oct. 6). Tom Belnick, Environmental Specialist N.C.

The Roanoke permits begin to expire 1/31/2007, which means that NPDES staff will start sending drafts to public notice in December06. NPDES staff attempts to incorporate compliance into permit renewals by reviewing the compliance record to identify problem facilities, and discussing with the applicable Regions whether the permit renewal should contain any special conditions to address continuing compliance problems. Similar to the Cape Fear renewals, I reviewed a BIMS download of enforcement cases during 2001-05, and used a subjective compliance threshold of 3+ enforcement cases over the last 2 years, or 5+ enforcement cases over the past 5 years, to identify potential problem facilities. This threshold resulted in 30 facilities, spread between WSRO (n=20), RRO (n=7), and WARO (n=3). These facilities are listed by Region in the attached spreadsheet. The next step is for NPDES/Region to review the facility lists and determine what permitting conditions, if any, would be appropriate for each listed facility. For some facilities, the cases may be older and the problem may already be resolved, or is currently being addressed through SOC, etc, in which case no permitting action is necessary. The most common permiting action for a problem facility has been to add a Special Condition requiring preparation of a Wastewater Management Plan that focusus on specific problems and how the facility plans to resolve them. I'll leave it to the Regions to determine how they want to proceed. Regions can either review their listings and enter comments on the spreadsheet and send back, or NPDES can call/visit the Region to discuss each listed facility. Both ways have worked in the past. Either way, I'd like to complete this task BY SEPTEMBER 30, before NPDES staff begins the permit renewals. Any permitting conditions deemed appropriate by Region/NPDES will then be placed in the permit renewal files, and ultimately incorporated into the draft permit. If Regions have any questions, feel free to contact me or the following NPDES Regional Office Contacts: WSRO- Charles Weaver; RRO- Vanessa Manuel; WARD- Karen Rust.
