Hennessy, John From: Davidson, Landon Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2018 3:17 PM To: Hennessy, John Subject: ARO permit comments John, I hope you are doing well. I wanted to bring to your attention an issue where Mikal of my staff had provided permit review comments that were never incorporated into the permit nor an explanation provided as to why. The facilities are NC0085294 and NC0071005. Comments were provided by Mikal on May 15`h related to the fact that NC0085294 had significant changes to treatment components (no longer a sand filter) an4NC0071005 had monitoring listed for a Class I facility. Both these permits were issued on July 9th with no change. Please let me know what we can do to see that we have accurate permits and staff comments are either incorporated or staff receive a response as to why. Thanks. You can call me if you want to discuss. Landon G.

For these two facilities we are just trying to get monitoring frequencies in line with a Class II facility. They are both currently sampling under frequencies for a Class I facility. Under 0213, Minimum Monitoring Requirements for Domestic Wastewater and Other Facilities Discharging Primarily Domestic Wastewater the following frequencies are listed; DOMESTIC WASTEWATER AND OTHER FACH IM DISCHARGING PRAiARILY DOMESTIC NMM 4UM REQUIREMENTS FOR SIC 4952 EFFLUENT LINUTED REQUIRED TEST LOCATION FREQUENCY CLASS CLASS CLASS CLASS I H III W PH E 2.matb %Vekly 3.hsnek Doily Tentpermture.'C E Weekly Weckly 3hsed: Daily BOD. 5-day. 26°C LE 2'awnth Weekly 3.hveek Daily TSS LE 1»wnth Wcaly 31U-cck Daily Ammonia Ni"cu E Monthly 2lnwath Weekly 3%stxek Fecal Coliform E 2'month Weekly Yweek Daily Total Nitrog= E Total Phosphorus E Toxics wd Toxicity •• •• •• •r Lynnbrook and Pavilion are both Class II facilities in accordance with 08G.0302 classification (activated sludge facilities <0.5 MGD flow). I know the flows are low for both of these facilities; however, sometimes these are our most problematic facilities so I encourage we at least ask for the minimum sampling requirements for the assigned classification. This would increase BOD, TSS, Fecal and pH to weekly and NH3 to 2/month for both facilities. Additionally, Lynnbrook is only sampling temperature 2/month (normal monitoring is weekly for both Class I & ]I). I am free discuss this Friday or next week, just let me know. Thanks!
