Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO072702
Glenda Drive WTP
Carteret County
Dear Mr. Young:
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 May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
This final permit includes no changes from the draft permit sent to you in August 2002. We apologize
for the delay in issuance of this final permit. The Division received no affidavit that the (August 2002) Public Notice
was published, requiring that we re -Notice the permit in February 2003. Approval by DEH [required for all permits
discharging to water -supply waters] also took longer than expected.
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. 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, the Coastal Area Management Act or any other Federal or Local governmental permit that may be
required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Charles Weaver at telephone number (919)

Ms. Benoy, I work in the DWQ NPDES Unit. We periodically send draft
permits to the DEH Regional Office engineers for review and approval
when the permitted facilities discharge to WS-class waters.
I'm awaiting approval of two draft permits sent to you earlier:
NCO072702 / Town of Beaufort / Glenda Drive WTP
NCO086975 / Carteret County / Laurel Road WTP
Please let me know if there are any reasons to hold these permits. Both
are ready for issuance and I'd like to get them out of here next week.
In case you need additional copies of the drafts, they are attached to
this message.
Thanks for you help with this....

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMNENDATIONS
This report is being prepared based upon a permit renewal
request. The Town of Beaufort operates the Glenda Drive Water
Treatment Plant. It is a well water treatment system
consisting of ion exchange softening, disinfection, and
includes fluoride as an additive. The wastestream consists of
backwash and rinse water from resin beds. The brine backwash
and rinse removes calcium and magnesium chlorides in a soluble
form. The plant has not been rated because there are no
treatment requirements per this permit and no treatment
facilities exist. However, personnel should have sufficient
sampling knowledge to fulfill the NPDES permit requirements
based upon their potable water treatment experience. This
facility does not meet the requirements for a Class I
physical/chemical rating. However, monitoring frequency should
be consistent with those of a Class I plant. The current
monitoring requirements are somewhat consistent with the
monitoring frequency requirements of an effluent- limited
water supply plant (SIC 4941) per NCAC 2B.0500.

The permittee is currently meeting all effluent limits.
The writer understands that standard permitting policy (for
all water treatment plants regardless of design type or
effluent quality) include monitoring for chlorides and
aluminum. There are no chloride or aluminum standards for salt
water. The cation exchange backwash/rinse is assumed to
produce no aluminum concentrations based upon scientific
principles. The writer respectfully requests deviation from
Division's standard effluent monitoring policy concerning the
elimination of chloride and aluminum monitoring as a cost
savings to the small municipality.
A review of Division monitoring sheets submitted over the
previous 12 month period indicates permit compliance.
Turbidity and TSS values were very low. Chloride values
averaged about 20 mg/l.
This facility includes an elevated potable water storage
tank. All such facilities have over -flow drains and bottom
drains. The elevated tank drains are plumbed into the
discharge pipe which is tributary to the man-made ditch
receiving stream. The operation of either tank drain is non -
routine. A chlorine residual of approximately 1 mg/l can be
expected if tank drain operation occurs. Based upon the
writer's experience, such discharges would definitely have an
adverse effect on aquatic animals within the receiving stream
(crawfish, minnows, etc.). Currently, a discharge from either
tank drain would be a nonpermitted activity. The writer feels
that the Division may wish to develop or apply current policy
for tank drains entering a permitted outfall.
It is recommended that NPDES Permit No. NC0072702 be
prepared in draft form with consideration for incorporating
regional office comments, and presented for the standard
public notice period. If no adverse public comment is
received, it is recommended the NPDES Permit No. NC0072702 be
reissued to the Town of Beaufort for the continued discharge
activities from the Glenda Drive Water Treatment Plant in
accordance with renewal terms of the Division's basinwide
management strategy.

The subject permit expires on July 31, 2002. North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC 2H.0105(e)) requires that
an application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit. If you have already mailed
your renewal application, you may disregard this notice.
To satisfy this requirement, your renewal package must be sent to the Division postmarked no later than February 1,
2002. Failure to request renewal of the permit by this date may result in a civil assessment of at least $500.00. Larger penalties
may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request.
If any wastewater discharge will occur after July 31, 2002 (or if continuation of the permit is desired), the current permit
must be renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and
could result in assessment of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If all wastewater discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this permit, contact Bob Sledge of the
