HomeMy WebLinkAboutNC0035041_Fact Sheet_20230919FACT SHEET FOR EXPEDITED PERMIT RENEWALS This form must be completed by Permit Writers for all expedited permits which do not require full Fact Sheets. Expedited permits are generally simple 100% domestics (e.g., schools, mobile home parks, etc) that can be administratively renewed with minor changes, but can include facilities with more complex issues (Special Conditions, 303(d) listed water, toxicity testing, instream monitoring, compliance concerns).

Updated ammonia limits: The Waste Load Allocation spreadsheet for this discharge calculated NH3-N limits of 1.0 mg/L for summer and 2.1 mg/L for winter. However, Division policy has established that for small discharges (< 1 MGD) the best available treatment technology for these facilities leads to monthly average limits no lower than 2 mg/L -summer and 4 mg/L — winter. The data reviewed for this renewal would indicate that the facility can meet these permit limits. During the previous permit cycle, evaluating the data with these limits resulted in no violations over the permit cycle. Updated eDMR language Change in Final Permit? Most Commonly Used Expedited Language: • 303(d) lan2ua2e for Draft/Final Cover Letters: "Please note that the receiving stream is listed as an impaired waterbody on the North Carolina 303(d) Impaired Waters List. Addressing impaired waters is a high priority with the Division, and instream data will continue to be evaluated. If there is noncompliance with permitted effluent limits and stream impairment can be attributed to your facility, then mitigative measures may be required". • TRC language for Compliance Level for Cover Letters/Effluent Sheet Footnote: "The facility shall report all effluent TRC values reported by a NC certified laboratory including field certified. However, effluent values < 50 µg/l will be treated as zero for compliance purposes."
