Ross, Jr., Secretary Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director April 5, 2004 Mr. James T. Highley Bradfield Farms Water Company. P.O. Box 240908 Charlotte, North Carolina 28224 NCDENR Subject: NPDES Permit Issuance Permit No. NCO064734 Bradfield Farms WWTP Cabarrus County Dear Mr. Highley: Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of 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 May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). The final permit authorizes Bradfield Farms Water Company to discharge up to 0.700 MGD of treated domestic wastewater from the Bradfield Farms current WWTP to McKee Creek, a class C water in the Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin. The permit includes discharge limitations and/or monitoring for flow, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), ammonia, dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform bacteria, pH, and total residual chlorine. The following modifications have been made to the Bradfield Farms WWTP NPDES permit: All references to Carolina Water Service hic. of NC have been removed from the permit. The increased instream monitoring frequency for dissolved oxygen, temperature and fecal colifonn during the summer months of June through September is a minimum requirement for domestic wastewater treatment dischargers based on North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 2B .0508 (d). In addition, North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 2B .0508 (b) (2), allows "... additional tests and measurements at such sampling points and 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083/FAX 919-733-0719 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 100/6 post -consumer paper Bradfield Farms WWTP NC0064734 Page 2 - - with such frequency as are determined by the Director to be necessary to adequately monitor constituents of the waste discharge and their effect upon the receiving waters." Because McKees Creek has been determined by the "impaired" rating to have water quality below the State standards, the Division has the authority to require additional monitoring of wastewater dischargers. • The addition of instream monitoring for fecal coliform in the permit. The receiving stream for the facility has been placed on the 2002 303 (d) list for impaired streams for the parameter of fecal coliform. Fecal coliform data collected instream will be useful in the development of water quality management strategy for McKee Creek. If it is determined that Bradfield Farms' discharge is not contributing to the impairment, it is possible that instream monitoring for fecal coliform could be removed. • The addition of a total residual chlorine limit for 21 ug/1 at 0.460 MGD. A compliance schedule has now been included in the permit. The Bradfield Farms WWTP has eighteen months from the effective date of the permit to be in compliance with the total residual chlorine limit. This time period is allowed in order for the facility to budget and design/construct the dechlorination and /or alternative disinfection system(s). • The addition of summer and winter weekly average NH3-N limits at 0.460 MGD and 0.700 MGD to reflect the Division's current policy. According to the Code of Federal Regulations [40 CFR 122.45 (d)(2)], "continuous discharges ...shall unless impractical be stated as... maximum daily and average monthly discharge limitations for all dischargers other than publicly owned treatment works". The maximum daily limit is established based on a ratio of 5:1 (maximum daily: monthly average) for non -municipal dischargers. The corresponding daily maximum limits for ammonia nitrogen at the flows of 0.460 MGD and 0.700 MGD are 10.0 mg/l for the summer and 20.0 mg/1 for the winter. The modification of the effluent monitoring frequency for BOD5, NH3-N, TSS, dissolved oxygen, total residual chlorine, pH and fecal coliform from weekly to three times per week upon expansion to 0.700 MGD. This change is based on the VAVTP's rating as a Grade III facility per North Carolina regulation 15A NCAC 08G. 0302 (c) . 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, Bradfield Farms WWTP - NC0064734 Page 2 — North Carolina 27699-6714. Unless such a demand is made, this permit shall be final and binding. Please take notice that this permit is not transferable. Part II, EA. addresses the requirements to be followed in case of change in ownership or control of this discharge. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act, or any other Federal or Local governmental permits may be required. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Ms. Jacquelyn Nowell at telephone number (919) 733-5083, extension 512. Sincerely, ORIGINAL SIGNED BY Mark McIntire Alan W.

Nowell NPDES Unit NC DENR — DWQ 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Re: Bradfield Farms WWTP Draft Permit NPDES NCO064734 Dear Ms. Nowell, MAR 1 1 2004 We are in receipt of your February 4, 2004 letter and draft permit. There are some issues we would like to have addressed. 1) Bradfield Farms Water Company is the owner and Permittee of this facility. Carolina Water Service, Inc. of NC (CWS) is a sister company. Other than a common owner, the two companies should not be linked and it would be best to leave off CWS from permit language. 2) We must object to the requirement of increased instream sampling during June - September. We are not aware of any requirement for Permittees to supply increased stream monitoring data for water quality strategy. This is above the requirements for the facility itself below 0.46 mgd, which are only once per week and increases operational cost. The Permittee should not have to bear undue extra burden of stream sampling for the division or other agencies. 3) The permit states a TRC limit of 21 ug/L with no provision for implementation. We can not comply with this limit without dechlorination or alternative disinfection methods. Other permits have allowed 18 months from the time of issue to become compliant. No such language was found in the draft that we could locate. We will need time to comply. We would appreciate your attention and consideration to these issues. If you have any questions, pleAe do not hesitate to contact me at 704-525-7990, Ext. 216.

Yes Permft Writer: Jacquelyn M. Nowell Subbasin: 03-07-11 Date: January 8, 2004 Drainage Area (mi2): 5.97 Summer 7Q10 (cfs) 0.17 Winter 7Q10 (cfs): 0.54 Average Flow (cfs): 6.3 SUMMARY OF FACILITY AND WASTELOAD ALLOCATION The facility is requesting renewal of its existing NPDES permit. The design capacity is 0.460 MGD with an additional effluent page for 0.7 MGD. The wastewater from the plant is 100% domestic from 1180 residential homes. Existing limits at 0.460 MGD and 0.7 MGD are: Summer Winter BOD5 9 mg/I 18 mg/I NH4 2 mg/I 4 mg/I TSS 30 mg/I 30 mg/I DO 5 mg/I 5 mg/I Fecal 200/ 100ml 200/ 100ml pH 6-9 SU 6-9 SU TRC - 20 ug/1 (at 0.7 MGD only) Effluent monitoring for temperature, TP and TN. Instream monitoring for temperature and DO. Receiving Stream: McKee Creek since the last renewal has been added to the 2002 303d list. A Category 5 (water for which a TMDL is required) 6.5 mile segment listed "from source to Reedy Creek" with causes of impairment being fecal coliform and sediment. The impaired use is O. It is a low priority with potential sources as minor nonmunicipal, agriculture, land development, and urban runoff/stormwater. TOXICITY TESTING: None Required COMPLIANCE SUMMARY: A review of the facility's compliance history indicates that there have been no problems meeting the existing limits. Effluent levels of BOD, ammonia, TSS, and fecal coliform are all quite low. The monthly average flow through Oct. 2003 is approximately 0.152 MGD much less than the lowest permitted flow of 0.460 MGD. 6radticld Farms Faa Shect NPDES Rcnewal Psac I INSTREAM MONITORING: Upstream site: At least 100 feet above the outfall Downstream site: Downstream at NCSR 1169 The facility is currently required to monitor temperature and dissolved oxygen at the locations above. The requirement to monitor fecal coliform and conductivity was deleted in the 2000 renewal. This recommendation was made before McKee Creek was placed on the 303d list for fecal coliform impairment. Based on this updated information, it is recommended that instream monitoring for fecal coliform be placed back in the Bradfield Farms permit. The monitoring frequency will be weekly to coincide with the instream monitoring frequency for temperature and DO. PROPOSED CHANGES: • The addition of a weekly instream monitoring for fecal coliform to the permit based on the listing of the receiving stream, McKee Creek, on the 2002 303(d) list of impaired streams. • The addition of a daily maximum limit for total residual chlorine of 21 ug/l at 0.460 MGD based on new DWQ procedure for new and existing dischargers. • The addition of summer and winter daily maximum NH3 limits of 10 mg/I and 20 mg/l, respectively, at 0.460 MGD and 0.700 MGD. PROPOSED SCHEDULE FOR PERMIT ISSUANCE: Draft Permit to Public Notice: February 11, 2004 Permit Scheduled to Issue: March 29, 2004 Effective Date of the Permit: May 1, 2004 STATE CONTACT: If you have any questions on any of the above information or on the attached permit, please contact Jackie Nowell at (919) 733-5038 ext. 512.
