4. Instream Data Summary
Instream monitoring may be required in certain situations, for example: 1) to verify model predictions when
model results for instream DO are within 1 mg/1 of instream standard at full permitted flow; 2) to verify
model predictions for outfall diffuser; 3) to provide data for future TMDL; 4) based on other instream
concerns. Instream monitoring may be conducted by the Permittee, and there are also Monitoring
Coalitions established in several basins that conduct instream sampling for the Permittee (in which case
instream monitoring is waived in the permit as long as coalition membership is maintained).
If applicable, summarize any instream data and what instream monitoring will be proposedfor this permit
action: The current permit requires instream monitoring for a variety of parameters at various frequencies
at one upstream (U) and two downstream (131, 132) locations:
• DO, Temperature, Conductivity — weekly at all locations
DO, Temperature, Secchi Depth, NO2+NO3, Ammonia, TKN, TP, Chlorophyll -a — monthly in
summer at D 1 and D2
o DO, Temperature at depth profiles of 1 m intervals
o NO2+NO3, Ammonia, TKN, TP, Chl-a as spatial composites throughout the photic zone
Total Hardness — quarterly at U.
The locations are: U at NC Hwy 39, —0.27 miles from the outfall; D1 at powerline crossing, —0.43 miles
and D2 at immediately above the confluence of Indian Creek and Crooked Creek in Kerr Lake, —3.8 miles
from the outfall.
This extensive instream monitoring regime was first placed into the permit in 1990 following
recommendations of an instream assessment conducted in 1988, citing lake concerns of hyper- and
mesotrophic conditions and that the Nutbush Creek arm of the lake is dominated by WWTP effluent.
Instream data were acquired from submitted DMRs from August 2018 through February 2023 for review.
The data were checked against applicable stream standards as well as for effluent impacts, the latter via
statistical testing of downstream averages against the upstream average of each parameter using t-test with
the level of significance (p-value) set at 0.05. Hardness data are required for calculating total metals from
dissolved metals that are hardness -dependent and are discussed in Section 6.4 Reasonable Potential
Analysis below. The data are summarized in Tables 2 — 4 and discussed here.

Dissolved Oxygen (DO) — DO is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. Summer minima
at all stations were all above the stream standard of 5.0 mg/L (15A NCAC 02B .0211). No statistically
significant differences were found between the upstream and downstream stations. Concurrent effluent
average DO is similar with similar summer minima.
Temperature — Temperature is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. The summer
maximum at the upstream station was below the 32°C standard for lower piedmont and coastal plain waters
(15A NCAC 02B .0211), but the maxima downstream exceeded the standard with the maximum at D2
highest. Statistically significant differences were found between U and D 1 and between U and D2 with the
downstream temperatures at both stations higher. Average increase from up- to downstream temperature
increase at both stations was higher than the standard of 2.8°C (15A NCAC 02B .0211) with the average
increase to DI being 3.78 and the average increase to D2 being 3.71 °C. Temperature at D 1 increased >
2.8°C from upstream 143 times and at D2 it increased > 2.8°C from upstream 108 times. Concurrent effluent
temperatures are similar to those downstream, and on average higher than upstream. Statistical t-testing
found the effluent temperature to be significantly higher than that at U but not at than D 1.
Conductivity — Conductivity is in the permit as an indicator of industrial sources. The Town has an active
pretreatment program with one SIU, a pet food manufacturer. Downstream Conductivity at both stations
tested significantly lower than the upstream conductivity, suggesting no impact from the effluent. However,
concurrent effluent Conductivity is twice as high as that upstream, suggesting the potential to impact. It is
also possible that additional sources upstream are contributing to the conductivity of the stream.
Fecal Coliform — Instream monitoring for Fecal Coliform is not in the current permit; it was removed from
the permit in 1997. According to Division guidance, instream fecal coliform monitoring may be removed
from a permit unless the receiving stream is either Class B or impaired for the parameter. The receiving
stream Nutbush Creek currently meets the criteria as it is not impaired and is a Class C waterbody. Nutbush
Creek is also a headwater of Kerr Lake, which is Class B at —3.6 miles downstream of the outfall. Instream
fecal coliform data are available via the Division's Ambient Monitoring System at Station N5000000,
located at NCSR 1317 (Spring Valley Rd), —1.3 miles downstream of the outfall. Reviewed data from
January 2019 through December 2022 (n = 26 samples) ranged from 13 — 2500 cfu/ 100 mL with a geometric
mean of 225 cfu/100 mL. The Division's 2012 Roanoke Basin Plan reported that for the period of 2004 —
2008 the geomean was 116 cfu/100 mL, noting that when the geometric mean exceeds 200 cfu/100 mL,
there is a strong likelihood a 5-in-30 study would result in impairment. To address this concern, instream
monitoring for Fecal Coliform at all stations will be added to the permit at the same frequencies as for DO,
Temperature and Conductivity.
Depth profile data show that D 1 at the powerline is a shallower waterbody than D2, which is deeper into
Kerr Lake. DO decreased with depth at both stations, but temperatures show a consistent decrease only at
D2 (Table 3).

Summer monitoring for nutrient and related data were reviewed and compared between the two downstream
stations by statistical t-tests. All but Ammonia tested significantly lower at D2 than at D1; Ammonia tested
no difference (Table 4). Effluent nutrient parameters TN & TP plus Ammonia were all much higher than
instream concentrations on average, suggesting effluent impact. To better understand the potential instream
impact by the effluent, upstream monitoring for Ammonia, NO2+NO3, TKN, and TP will be added to the
permit.

Situated between D1 and D2 lies the station N500000, operated by the Division's Ambient Monitoring
System (AMS). Samples collected at this station were grabbed at the surface, no spatial composites
throughout the photic zone as are D 1 and D2, therefore comparisons could not be made.
However, AMS monitoring is year-round, not seasonal as at D 1 and D2. Review of the AMS data found no
discernable seasonal variation among nutrient parameters (Fig. 1). To better understand instream nutrient
concentrations and their impact on Chlorophyll -a concentrations both instream and in Kerr Lake, and in
consultation with the Division's River Basin Planning Branch, monitoring for these parameters will be
increased to year-round.

Figure 1. Nutrient concentrations in the Nutbush Creek arm of Kerr Lake, 2019-2022.
In August 2009, the benthic macroinvertebrate community in the receiving stream was evaluated at station
NB49 (approximately 1 mile downstream from WWTP). With respect to the benthic community, the stream
received a bioclassification of Fair, and a generally tolerant benthic community was found at this sampling
site. In June 2014, the fish community in the receiving stream was evaluated at station NF28 (1.3 miles
downstream from WWTP). The stream was rated Good -Fair, and the analysis noted that "there has been no
consistent long-term change in the water quality or fish community since 1994."

5 years): The facility passed 17 of 20 quarterly chronic toxicity tests with two test failures and passed the
post -fail subsequent tests. The four second species chronic toxicity tests, collected in October 2019, April
20020, July 2021, and January 2022, all passed.
Summarize the results from the most recent compliance inspection: The most recent facility inspection
conducted in June 2023 reported that the facility was largely well maintained and operated with the
following deficiencies: 1) flowmeters were not calibrated within the past year, and 2) ORC visits were not
documented. The most recent pretreatment inspection was conducted in August 2021 with no details of the
inspection results reported.
6. Water Quality -Based Effluent Limitations (WQBELs)
6.1 Dilution and Mixing Zones
In accordance with 15A NCAC 213.0206, the following streamflows are used for dilution considerations for
development of WQBELs: 1 Q 10 streamflow (acute Aquatic Life); 7Q 10 streamflow (chronic Aquatic Life;
non -carcinogen HH); 30Q2 streamflow (aesthetics); annual average flow (carcinogen, HH).
If applicable, describe any other dilution factors considered (e.g., based on CORMIX model results): NA
If applicable, describe any mixing zones established in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0204(b): NA
6.2 Oxygen -Consuming Waste Limitations
Limitations for oxygen -consuming waste (e.g., BOD) are generally based on water quality modeling to
ensure protection of the instream dissolved oxygen (DO) water quality standard. Secondary TBEL limits
(e.g., BOD= 30 mg/l for Municipals) may be appropriate if deemed more stringent based on dilution and
model results.
If permit limits are more stringent than TBELs, describe how limits were developed.• Limits for
BOD5 at 4.14 MGD flow were determined in a 1988 waste load allocation on the basis of water quality
protection and the previous permit limits. Limits for BOD5 at 6.0 MGD flow are based on 1990 speculative
limits using previously permitted equivalent loading criteria and the previous QUAL2E model run in 1987
along with best professional judgment.
The following excerpt is from the July 31, 1990 Speculative Limits letter, modified for clarity:
Page 8 of 9
The following set of limits was derived for BOD5, Ammonia (NH3-N), and Dissolved Oxygen (DO):
Parameter
Summer
Winter
BOD5 (mg/L)
5.0
10.0
NH3-N (mg/L)
1.0
1.9
DO (mg/L)
7.0
7.0
These limits were derived based on a combination of water quality modeling and best professional
judgment. The previous model indicated that the minimum predicted DO occurred at the end of the
model at the stream -lake interface, with most of the oxygen demand remaining. Since the critical lake
portion cannot reliably be modeled with the available data, a water quality model was not run to
evaluate the 6.0 MGD waste flow. Instead, equivalent loading criteria were used to develop allocation
limits. At 6.0 MGD, the BOD5 limit would be 4.1 mg/L and the NH3-N limit would be 2.1 mg/L. Since
the Division (then known as Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources: Division of
Environmental Management) does not usually assign BOD5 limits below 5 mg/L, limits of 5 mg/L BOD5
and I mg/L NH3-N were assigned. These limits result in near identical ultimate BOD loading (1502
lb/d in previous allocation and 1476 lb/d for expansion).
While technology has advanced since 1990 and the Division has assigned BOD5 limits < 5 mg/L in
other permitting scenarios, it remains true that the BOD5 limit of 5.0 mg/L and ammonia limit of 1.0
mg/L at the 6.0 MGD flow tier result in a protective ultimate BOD5 loading. As such, no changes are
proposed for BOD5 limits. Please see Ammonia and Total Residual Chlorine Limitations below for
additional information regarding ammonia limits.
6.3 Ammonia and Total Residual Chlorine Limitations
Limitations for Ammonia are based on protection of aquatic life utilizing an ammonia chronic criterion of
1.0 mg/L (summer) and 1.8 mg/L (winter). Acute ammonia limits are derived from chronic criteria, utilizing
a multiplication factor of 3 for Municipals and a multiplication factor of 5 for Non -Municipals.
Limitations for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) are based on the NC water quality standard for protection
of aquatic life (17 µg/L) and capped at 28 µg/L (acute impacts). Due to analytical issues, all TRC values
reported below 50 µg/L are considered compliant with their permit limit.
Describe any proposed changes to ammonia and/or TRC limits for this permit renewal: Current permit
Ammonia limits of 3.0/6.0 mg/L monthly/weekly average in summer and 6.0/18.0 mg/L monthly/weekly
average in winter at 4.14 MGD are based on a 1985 waste load allocation (WLA) using QUAL2 model
results for protection of the DO stream standard. Current Ammonia limits of 1.0/3.0 mg/L monthly/weekly
average and 2.0/6.0 mg/L monthly/weekly average at 6.0 MGD are based on a WLA calculation for
protection against ammonia toxicity. The WLA was used to evaluate ammonia limits using the permitted
flows, the low stream flows of 7Q 10 = 0.2 cfs (summer) and 0.4 cfs (winter), and the NC criteria of 1.0 and
1.8 mg/L, with resulting allowable concentrations of 1.0/3.0 mg/L monthly/weekly average in summer and
1.9/3.8 mg/L monthly/weekly average at both flow tiers. However, since there is no discernible differences
between up- and downstream DO and increased instream monitoring for ammonia is proposed, no changes
to effluent ammonia limits are proposed.
Current permit TRC limits of 17.0 µg/L daily maximum at both flow tiers were added in 1990 (July 31,
1990 letter) based on standard operating procedure/action level for TRC. The WLA form was also used to
calculate TRC allowable concentrations at both flow tiers, finding them to be as protective as the current
limits. No changes are proposed.
6.4 Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) for Toxicants
If applicable, conduct RPA analysis and complete information below.
Page 9 of 10
The need for toxicant limits is based upon a demonstration of reasonable potential to exceed water quality
standards, a statistical evaluation that is conducted during every permit renewal utilizing the most recent
effluent data for each outfall. The RPA is conducted in accordance with 40 CFR 122.44 (d) (i). The NC RPA
procedure utilizes the following: 1) 95% Confidence Level/95% Probability; 2) assumption of zero
background; 3) use of '/z detection limit for "less than" values; and 4) streamflows used for dilution
consideration based on 15A NCAC 2B.0206. Effective April 6, 2016, NC began implementation of
dissolved metals criteria in the RPA process in accordance with guidance titled NPDES Implementation of
Instream Dissolved Metals Standards, dated June 10, 2016.
Effluent and upstream hardness monitoring are required in the current permit for calculating total metals
for those dissolved metals that are hardness dependent. Permittee-submitted data averaged 51.0 mg/L
effluent and 67.2 mg/L upstream, both higher than the default value of 25 mg/L. These data were used in
the RPA.
A reasonable potential analysis was conducted on effluent toxicant data collected between August 2018
July 2023. Pollutants of concern included toxicants with positive detections and associated water quality
standards/criteria. Based on this analysis, the following permitting actions are proposed for this permit:
• Effluent Limit with Monitoring. The following parameters will receive a water quality -based
effluent limit (WQBEL) since they demonstrated a reasonable potential to exceed applicable water
quality standards/criteria:
o Total Zinc:

Monitoring Only. The following parameters will receive a monitor -only requirement since they
did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria, but
the maximum predicted concentration was >50% of the allowable concentration: None.
No Limit or Monitoring: The following parameters will not receive a limit or monitoring, since
they did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria
and the maximum predicted concentration was <50% of the allowable concentration: Arsenic,
Beryllium, Cadmium, Total Phenols, Total Chromium, Total Copper, Cyanide, Total Lead, Total
Molybdenum, Total Nickel, Total Selenium, Total Silver at both flow tiers.
POTW Effluent Pollutant Scan Review: Three effluent pollutant scans were evaluated for
additional pollutants of concern.
o The following parameter(s) will receive a water quality -based effluent limit (WQBEL)
with monitoring, since as part of a limited data set, two samples exceeded the allowable
discharge concentration: None at both flow tiers
o The following parameter(s) will receive a monitor -only requirement, since as part of a
limited data set, one sample exceeded the allowable discharge concentration: None at both
flow tiers.
Aside from the parameters above, no detections were reported in the Effluent Pollutant Scans.
If applicable, attach a spreadsheet of the RPA results as well as a copy of the Dissolved Metals
Implementation Fact Sheet for freshwater/saltwater to this Fact Sheet. Include a printout of the RPA
Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator sheet if this is a Municipality with a Pretreatment Program.
6.5 Toxicity Testing Limitations
Permit limits and monitoring requirements for Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) have been established in
accordance with Division guidance (per WET Memo, 8/2/1999). Per WET guidance, all NPDES permits
issued to Major facilities or any facility discharging "complex" wastewater (contains anything other than
domestic waste) will contain appropriate WET limits and monitoring requirements, with several exceptions.
The State has received prior EPA approval to use an Alternative WET Test Procedure in NPDES permits,
using single concentration screening tests, with multiple dilution follow-up upon a test failure.
Page 10 of 11
Describe proposed toxicity test requirement: This is a Major POTW, and a chronic WET limit at 90% at
effluent at 4.14 and 6.0 MGD flow tiers will continue on a quarterly frequency.
6.6 Mercury Statewide TMDL Evaluation
There is a statewide TMDL for mercury approved by EPA in 2012. The TMDL target was to comply with
EPXs mercury fish tissue criteria (0.3 mg/kg) for human health protection. The TMDL established a
wasteload allocation for point sources of 37 kg/year (81 lb/year), and is applicable to municipals and
industrial facilities with known mercury discharges. Given the small contribution of mercury from point
sources (-2% of total load), the TMDL emphasizes mercury minimization plans (MMPs) for point source
control. Municipal facilities > 2 MGD and discharging quantifiable levels of mercury (> 1 ng/L) will receive
an MMP requirement. Industrials are evaluated on a case -by -case basis, depending if mercury is a pollutant
of concern. Effluent limits may also be added if annual average effluent concentrations exceed the WQBEL
value (based on the NC WQS of 12 ng/L) and/or if any individual value exceeds a TBEL value of 47 ng/L.
The current permit has a MMP special condition, and an MMP summary was provided by the Permittee
upon request.
Describe proposed permit actions based on mercury evaluation: Since no annual average mercury
concentration exceeded the WQBEL, and no individual mercury sample exceeded the TBEL (Table 6), no
mercury limit is required. However, since the facility is > 2 MGD and has reported quantifiable levels of
mercury (> 1 ng/L), a mercury minimization plan (MMP) is required and the condition has been revised
toward maintaining the MMP.

6.7 Other TMDL/Nutrient Management Strategy Considerations
If applicable, describe any other TMDLs/Nutrient Management Strategies and their implementation within
this permit: Currently the receiving stream has no TMDL or Nutrient Management Strategy. The current
permit has monthly monitoring for Total Nitrogen and weekly monitoring with seasonal limits for Total
Phosphorus. To better understand the effluent nitrogen, Nitrite+Nitrate (NO2+NO3) and Total Kjeldahl
Nitrogen (TKN) monitoring will be added to the permit at the same frequency as Total Nitrogen monitoring.
Seasonal TP limits for 4.14 MGD flow were originally based on a 1988 WLA (summer: 0.5 mg/L, winter:
2.0 mg/L) and modified in 1989 to current limits (summer: 1.0 mg/L, winter: 1.5 mg/L) based on a request
from the City of Henderson (see request letter April 12, 1989; approval letter May 8, 1989). For 6.0 MGD
flow, the TP limit of 0.5 mg/L was based on 1990 Speculative Limits for this flow. A mass balance showed
that an effluent TP concentration of 0.2 mg/L was needed to meet an instream target concentration of 150
µg/L during average stream flow; however, the limit of 0.5 mg/L was assigned during speculative limits
developed.
Instream water quality downstream of the outfall is concerning as Chlorophyll -a data collected by DWR
AMS average just below the stream standard of 40 µg/L. To address this concern, expanded instream
monitoring is proposed (see Section 4 above).
Page 11 of 12
6.8 Other WQBEL Considerations
If applicable, describe any other parameters of concern evaluated for WQBELs: Emerging contaminants
PFAS and 1,4-Dioxane were considered when the facility submitted its Chemical Addendum on 9/25/2023.
The City responded: "The City Of Henderson Water Reclamation doesn't anticipate any emerging
contaminants (L 4-D or PFAS) to be present in the wastewater. " The receiving water does not enter any
water supply waters before crossing the Virginia state line —14.3 miles downstream of the discharge. The
facility's permitted SIU is a pet food manufacturer that is not a potential 1,4-Dioxane source; no
requirements for 1,4-Dioxane were added to the permit. However, based on the pervasive nature of these
chemicals and following EPA guidance on PFAS monitoring (memo, 12/5/2022), quarterly monitoring for
PFAS will be added to the permit to generate data for future evaluation.
If applicable, describe any special actions (HQW or ORW) this receiving stream and classification shall
comply with in order to protect the designated waterbody: NA.
If applicable, describe any compliance schedules proposed for this permit renewal in accordance with I5A
NCAC 2H.0107(c)(2)(B), 40CFR 122.47, and EPA May 2007 Memo: NA
If applicable, describe any water quality standards variances proposed in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.3(e) and I5A NCAC 2B.0226 for this permit renewal: NA
7. Technology -Based Effluent Limitations (TBELs)
Municipals.
Are concentration limits in the permit at least as stringent as secondary treatment requirements (30 mg1L
BODs/TSS for Monthly Average, and 45 mg/L for BODs/TSS for Weekly Average). YES
If NO, provide a justification for alternative limitations (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA
Are 85% removal requirements for BODs/TSS included in the permit? YES. Review of the data for both
parameters found overall average of removal to be > 85%, but with 4 and 6 occurrences of BOD and TSS
removal < 85%, respectively.
If NO, provide a justification (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA
Industrials. NA
8. Antidegradation Review (New/Expanding Discharge):
The objective of an antidegradation review is to ensure that a new or increased pollutant loading will not
degrade water quality. Permitting actions for new or expanding discharges require an antidegradation
review in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0201. Each applicant for a new/expanding NPDES permit must
document an effort to consider non -discharge alternatives per 15A NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2). In all cases,
existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing use is maintained
and protected.
If applicable, describe the results of the antidegradation review, including the Engineering Alternatives
Analysis (EAA) and any water quality modeling results: NA
9. Antibacksliding Review:
Page 12 of 13
Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(1) prohibit
backsliding of effluent limitations in NPDES permits. These provisions require effluent limitations in a
reissued permit to be as stringent as those in the previous permit, with some exceptions where limitations
may be relaxed (e.g., based on new information, increases in production may warrant less stringent TBEL
limits, or WQBELs may be less stringent based on updated RPA or dilution).
Are any effluent limitations less stringent than previous permit (YES/NO): Yes: Cadmium, Copper,
Selenium and Silver.
If YES, confirm that antibacksliding provisions are not violated: Based on RPA results of recent effluent
data with recent effluent and upstream hardness concentrations showing no reasonable potential to exceed
stream water quality standards (hereafter "RP"), limits and monitoring requirements for Total Copper have
been removed from the permit. Similarly, quarterly monitoring requirements for Total Cadmium, Total
Selenium and Total Silver have been removed from the permit.
10. Monitoring Requirements
Monitoring frequencies for NPDES permitting are established in accordance with the following regulations
and guidance: 1) State Regulation for Surface Water Monitoring, 15A NCAC 213.0500; 2) NPDES
Guidance, Monitoring Frequency for Toxic Substances (7/15/2010 Memo); 3) NPDES Guidance, Reduced
Monitoring Frequencies for Facilities with Superior Compliance (10/22/2012 Memo); 4) Best Professional
Judgement (BPJ). Per US EPA (Interim Guidance, 1996), monitoring requirements are not considered
effluent limitations under Section 402(o) of the Clean Water Act, and therefore anti -backsliding prohibitions
would not be triggered by reductions in monitoring frequencies.
All effluent parameters are monitored under 15A NCAC 02B .0500.
For instream monitoring, refer to Section 4
11. Electronic Reporting Requirements
The US EPA NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was finalized on December 21, 2015. Effective December
21, 2016, NPDES regulated facilities are required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs)
electronically. While NPDES regulated facilities would initially be required to submit additional NPDES
reports electronically effective December 21, 2020, EPA extended this deadline from December 21, 2020,
to December 21, 2025. The current compliance date, effective January 4, 2021, was extended as a final
regulation change published in the November 2, 2020 Federal Register. This permit contains the
requirements for electronic reporting, consistent with Federal requirements.

Process Narrative
Waste water enters the plant and goes through automatic bar screens. Influent continues
through the grit camber then passes through Parshall Flume into the Influent pump
station. Influent is then pumped to Anaerobic basin in Oxidation ditch then goes to the
anoxic basin in the Oxidation ditch continues to BNR part of the Oxidation ditch. The
waste water then goes over the Weir into the final Clarifier box. Mixed liquor is then
returned to Anaerobic basin or to the Sludge thickener. Clarifier water flows to the four
Tertiary sand filter then goes to the Post Air where is it Aerated then it flows to the UV
Disinfection then is discharged in the creek. Thicken Sludge goes to the Aerobic digestor
and then hauled off by Granville Farms.
Sludge Management Plan
We have two aerobic digesters, a drum thickener, we use polymer to dewater sludge. We
also process 35-45 thousand gallons of mixed liquor per day. Digested sludge is hauled
from the facility by Granville Farms who holds a land application permit. (Permit number
WQ0000838) The onsite Lab forms testing to facilitate wasting rates.
Chemical Addendum
The City Of Henderson Water Reclamation doesn't anticipate any emerging contaminants (1.4-D or PFAS)
to be present in the wastewater.

Data
Watershed - a northern flowing tributary to Kerr Reservoir, draining central Vance County. This site is about 1.3 miles downstream from the Henderson WRF,
and 1.4 miles upstream from the creek's confluence with the lake. Habitats - wide forested riparian zones here are providing moderate canopy shading.
Instream habitats are primarily shallow, embedded, sandy/silty runs with overhanging shrubs along the edges. Abundant bedrock veins are present in the
downstream part of the reach near the road crossing. There have been no obvious habitat changes at this site since the 2014 survey. 2019 Fish Community -
the creek became very turbid with silts during sampling. Lower fish diversity here as seen in past assessments, with the same number of species present as in
2014. A slight trophic shift between insectivores and omnivores+herbivores (including dominance of the omnivorous Spottail Shiner) is the reason for the 4
point decline in NCIBI score and rating. However, these slight declines do not reflect any big changes to the fish community. Two species of fish were
observed with young -of -year cohorts in 2019 - Bluegill (n=1), and Bluehead Chub (schools observed but not collected). 1994-2019 - consistently high
conductivities have been measured at this site due to the Henderson WRP, and also from Henderson's non -point runoff. Although still quite elevated, 2019
marked the lowest conductivity measured here to date. Nutbush Creek continues to support lower fish species richness, with a total of 16 known species
collected from this site including no suckers, 4 sunfish and bass (3 collected in 2019), 8 minnows (6 collected in 2019), 2 catfish (both collected in 2019), and 2
darters (1 collected in 2019). Although the rating here dropped back down to Fair in 2019, the fish assemblage does not appear to have changed much in this
urban watershed since the 2014 survey.
Most Abundant Sp. ISpottail Shiner (n=73, 28%). Non -Native Sp. I Green Sunfish (n=19), Bluegill (n=39).
Species Change Since Last Cycle
Species gained since 2014 - Creek Chub (n=1, last collected here in 2004), and Yellow Bullhead (n=1, new record). Species lost since 2014 - Rosyside
Dace (1 collected in 2014), and Comely Shiner (7 collected in 2014).

Basin planning pulled the influent, effluent, and instream monitoring data provided by the Henderson WRF (NC0020559). Based on the 2015 — 2023 data, the
chlorophyll a numbers recorded at both the downstream monitoring stations are concerning (see attached). In reviewing the nutrients (nitrate+nitrite, total
nitrogen, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, and total phosphorus) they appear to be following their current limits (only ammonia attached). Two other notable
parameters were 2,4-dinitrotoluene and zinc (see attached). Notably, this facility is discharging into a stream with low streamflow volumes (winter 7Q10 0.4
cfs; summer 7Q10 0.2 cfs; average 3.5 cfs) and their IWC (%) is 97% at 4.14 MGD and 98% at 6 MGD.
While reviewing their nitrate+nitrite data we are concerned about the concentrations the facility is reporting. The Division has an ambient monitoring system
(AMS) station (N5000000) located between the D1 and D2 monitoring stations established by the facility. There is considerable difference in the nitrate+nitrite
concentrations recorded at the D1 station compared to our AMS station N5000000. The stations are approximately 0.87 miles apart and there are no
significant sources of nutrients in the drainage area between D1 and N5000000. We suggest adding a split sampling effort because the nitrate+nitrite
concentrations recorded at their downstream station D1 are very low compared to the AMS station (N5000000) between the facilities stations D1 and D2. We
defer to your judgement call on how many split samples to collect.
The chlorophyll a numbers recorded at the downstream monitoring stations (D1 and D2) and the ambient lakes monitoring program station ROA037A (see
below) run by DWR's Intensive Survey Branch (which is co -located with the permittee's most downstream monitoring stations) suggest that the available
nutrients in Nutbush Creek and draining to John H. Kerr Reservoir are having an impact on water quality. Values can be above the chlorophyll a water quality
standard and can be the highest recorded lake station across John H. Kerr Reservoir. The chlorophyll a concentrations in Nutbush Creek (station D1) are
extremely concerning with a large number of records above 40 µg/L. This is a small stream where a large percentage of the flow is likely wastewater discharge
during low flow periods. The chlorophyll a levels indicate that it is a highly productive stream. It is not surprising that there are impacted biology communities.
I would also assume that there is a lot of periphytic growth that likely occurs in this stream. The creek likely backs up or there is a slow flow allowing for the
algae to grow in this system.
Nutrient levels in the effluent of the Henderson WRF (NC0020559) are contributing to the cumulative impact to Nutbush Creek and John H. Kerr Reservoir.
There is a concern for the levels of chlorophyll a recorded in Nutbush Creek and a concern that if nutrients increase to this arm of John H. Kerr Reservoir, we
could have an impaired waterway in the future. We request year-round monthly monitoring for upstream nutrients (NO2+NO3, NH3-N, TKN, and Total
Phosphorus) using a grab sample and downstream nutrients (NO2+NO3, NH3-N, TKN, and Total Phosphorus), secchi, and chlorophyll a using a composite
sample in the lake and a grab sample in the creek. The reason for this additional monitoring is the concerning chlorophyll a levels and the need to begin
capturing an entire year -long understanding of the nutrients in Nutbush Creek to monitor the nutrient levels responsible for the elevated chlorophyll a from
the areas draining to the Henderson WRF outfall and downstream from their return flows.
The last two comments we would like to share are that the composite sample the facility is collecting for nutrients, secchi, and chlorophyll a at station D1
should be a grab sample since the stream in that section of the Nutbush Creek is most likely shallow given the volume and the width of the stream channel. It
seems quite difficult to sample at twice the secchi depth. Also, as we discussed previously, the AMS station N5000000 should have chlorophyll a added as a
water quality parameter that is sampled monthly. Basin planners discussed possibly a year-round special study in 2024. Would you be willing to request this
parameter be added to the water quality parameters sampled at AMS station N5000000 to align with what the permittee has to sample and to help determine
Nutbush Creek's compliance with the water quality standards?

Detailed Facility Report I ECHO I US EPA
This section shows indexes from EJScreen, EPA's screening tool for environmental justice (EJ) concerns. EPA uses these indexes to identify geographic areas that may warrant further consideration or analysis for potential EJ concerns.
Use of these indexes does not designate an area as an "EJ community" or "EJ facility." EJScreen provides screening level indicators, not a determination of the existence or absence of EJ concerns. For more information, see the

Demographic Profile of Surrounding Area (1 mile)
O Facility 1-mile Radius ❑ Facility Census Block Group
This section provides demographic information regarding the community surrounding the facility. ECHO compliance data alone are not sufficient to determine whether violations at a particular facility had negative impacts on public
health or the environment. Statistics are based upon the 2010 U.S. Census and 2017 - 2021 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year Summary and are accurate to the extent that the facility latitude and longitude listed below are
correct. EPNS spatial processing methodology considers the overlap between the selected radii and the census blocks (for U.S. Census demographics) and census block groups (for ACS demographics) in determining the demographics
surrounding the facility. For more detail about this methodology, see the DFR Data Dictionary..

Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
The current permit expired on March 31, 2023. Renewal application was received by the Division on
November 28, 2022.
The 4.14 MGD facility consists of the following units: influent pump station; dual bar screens; grit
removal system; biological nutrient removal system — 4 anaerobic basins, 2 anoxic zones, 2 oxidation
ditches with 4 aerators ( 100 HP); two secondary clarifiers; UV disinfection with sodium hypochlorite
backup; four (4) tertiary sand filters; post aeration; aerobic digester; sludge holding tank; waste
activated sludge pumps, screw thickener; and screw thickener discharge pump.
At the time of inspection, the following treatment units were not in used due to low flow: one of two
BNR ditches, and two of four tertiary filters.
Color of the influent in the oxidation ditch appeared chocolate brown. Foam covered about 50% of
the basin. Effluent flowing at the weirs of the secondary clarifier and clear well of the tertiary sand
filters appeared clear. Sludge blankets in the secondary clarifiers were less than a foot.
feet. The screw thickener was in operation at the time of inspection. The aerobic digester was about
3/4 full.
Discharge Monitoring Report records for for July 2022 and January 2023 were reviewed with lab
bench sheets and no transcription errors were noted. Chain of Custody forms are completed and
kept on site. A daily operation log book is maintained and kept on site. Records are maintained for at
least three years.
The laboratory was checked in a cursory manner. All calibrations of instruments and temperatures of
refrigerators and other equipment are recorded daily in a log book.
The following deficiencies were noted during the inspection:
1. Influent and effluent flow meters were last calibrated on February 2, 2022, permit requires flow
meters to be calibrated at least annually;
2. ORC visitation has not been documented.

NPDES Implementation of Instream Dissolved Metals Standards - Freshwater Standards
The NC 2007-2015 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC
Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA subsequently
approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016, with some exceptions. Therefore, metal limits in draft
permits out to public notice after April 6, 2016 must be calculated to protect the new standards - as
approved.

General Information on the Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA)
The RPA process itself did not change as the result of the new metals standards. However, application of
the dissolved and hardness -dependent standards requires additional consideration in order to establish the
numeric standard for each metal of concern of each individual discharge.
The hardness -based standards require some knowledge of the effluent and instream (upstream) hardness
and so must be calculated case -by -case for each discharge.
Metals limits must be expressed as `total recoverable' metals in accordance with 40 CFR 122.45(c). The
discharge -specific standards must be converted to the equivalent total values for use in the RPA
calculations. We will generally rely on default translator values developed for each metal (more on that
below), but it is also possible to consider case -specific translators developed in accordance with
established methodology.
RPA Permitting Guidance/WOBELs for Hardness -Dependent Metals - Freshwater
The RPA is designed to predict the maximum likely effluent concentrations for each metal of concern,
based on recent effluent data, and calculate the allowable effluent concentrations, based on applicable
standards and the critical low -flow values for the receiving stream.
If the maximum predicted value is greater than the maximum allowed value (chronic or acute), the
discharge has reasonable potential to exceed the standard, which warrants a permit limit in most cases. If
monitoring for a particular pollutant indicates that the pollutant is not present (i.e. consistently below
detection level), then the Division may remove the monitoring requirement in the reissued permit.
To perform a RPA on the Freshwater hardness -dependent metals the Permit Writer compiles the
following information:
• Critical low flow of the receiving stream, 7Q10 (the spreadsheet automatically calculates
the 1 Q 10 using the formula 1 Q 10 = 0.843 (s7Q 10, cfs) 0.993
• Effluent hardness and upstream hardness, site -specific data is preferred
• Permitted flow
• Receiving stream classification
2. In order to establish the numeric standard for each hardness -dependent metal of concern and for
each individual discharge, the Permit Writer must first determine what effluent and instream
(upstream) hardness values to use in the equations.
The permit writer reviews DMR's, Effluent Pollutant Scans, and Toxicity Test results for any
hardness data and contacts the Permittee to see if any additional data is available for instream
hardness values, upstream of the discharge.
If no hardness data is available, the permit writer may choose to do an initial evaluation using a
default hardness of 25 mg/L (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)). Minimum and maximum limits on the
hardness value used for water quality calculations are 25 mg/L and 400 mg/L, respectively.
If the use of a default hardness value results in a hardness -dependent metal showing reasonable
potential, the permit writer contacts the Permittee and requests 5 site -specific effluent and
upstream hardness samples over a period of one week. The RPA is rerun using the new data.

Permit No. NCO020559
The overall hardness value used in the water quality calculations is calculated as follows:
Combined Hardness (chronic)
_ (Permitted Flow, cfs *Avfz. Effluent Hardness, mg/L)+s7Q10, cfs *Avg. Upstream Hardness, mg/L)
(Permitted Flow, cfs + s7Q 10, cfs)
The Combined Hardness for acute is the same but the calculation uses the 1 Q 10 flow.
3. The permit writer converts the numeric standard for each metal of concern to a total recoverable
metal, using the EPA Default Partition Coefficients (DPCs) or site -specific translators, if any
have been developed using federally approved methodology.
EPA default partition coefficients or the "Fraction Dissolved" converts the value for
dissolved metal at laboratory conditions to total recoverable metal at in -stream
ambient conditions. This factor is calculated using the linear partition coefficients
found in The Metals Translator: Guidance for Calculating a Total Recoverable
Permit Limit from a Dissolved Criterion (EPA 823-B-96-007, June 1996) and the
equation:
Cdiss = 1
Ctotal 1 + { [Kpo] [ss('+a)] [10-6] }
Where:
ss = in -stream suspended solids concentration [mg/1], minimum of 10 mg/L used,
and
Kpo and a = constants that express the equilibrium relationship between dissolved
and adsorbed forms of metals. A list of constants used for each hardness -dependent
metal can also be found in the RPA program under a sheet labeled DPCs.
4. The numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the default partition coefficient (or
site -specific translator) to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions.
In some cases, where an EPA default partition coefficient translator does not exist (ie. silver), the
dissolved numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the EPA conversion factor to
obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions. This method presumes that the metal is
dissolved to the same extent as it was during EPA's criteria development for metals. For more
information on conversion factors see the June, 1996 EPA Translator Guidance Document.
5. The RPA spreadsheet uses a mass balance equation to determine the total allowable concentration
(permit limits) for each pollutant using the following equation:
Ca = (s7Q 10 + Qw) (Cwgs)(s7Q 10) (Cb)
Qw
Where: Ca = allowable effluent concentration (µg/L or mg/L)
Cwqs = NC Water Quality Standard or federal criteria (µg/L or mg/L)
Cb = background concentration: assume zero for all toxicants except NH3* (µg/L or mg/L)
Qw = permitted effluent flow (cfs, match s7Q 10)
s7Q 10 = summer low flow used to protect aquatic life from chronic toxicity and human
health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from noncarcinogens (cfs)
* Discussions are on -going with EPA on how best to address background concentrations
Flows other than s7Q 10 may be incorporated as applicable:
1 Q 10 = used in the equation to protect aquatic life from acute toxicity
Page 3 of 4
Permit No. NC0020559
QA = used in the equation to protect human health through the consumption of water,
fish, and shellfish from carcinogens
30Q2 = used in the equation to protect aesthetic quality
6. The permit writer enters the most recent 2-3 years of effluent data for each pollutant of concern.
Data entered must have been taken within four and one-half years prior to the date of the permit
application (40 CFR 122.21). The RPA spreadsheet estimates the 95th percentile upper
concentration of each pollutant. The Predicted Max concentrations are compared to the Total
allowable concentrations to determine if a permit limit is necessary. If the predicted max exceeds
the acute or chronic Total allowable concentrations, the discharge is considered to show
reasonable potential to violate the water quality standard, and a permit limit (Total allowable
concentration) is included in the permit in accordance with the U.S. EPA Technical Support
Document for Water Quality -Based Toxics Control published in 1991.
7. When appropriate, permit writers develop facility specific compliance schedules in accordance
with the EPA Headquarters Memo dated May 10, 2007 from James Hanlon to Alexis Strauss on
40 CFR 122.47 Compliance Schedule Requirements.
The Total Chromium NC WQS was removed and replaced with trivalent chromium and
hexavalent chromium Water Quality Standards. As a cost savings measure, total chromium data
results may be used as a conservative surrogate in cases where there are no analytical results
based on chromium III or VI. In these cases, the projected maximum concentration (95th %) for
total chromium will be compared against water quality standards for chromium III and
chromium VI.
9. Effluent hardness sampling and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the discharge, are
inserted into all permits with facilities monitoring for hardness -dependent metals to ensure the
accuracy of the permit limits and to build a more robust hardness dataset.
