CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 3.7%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterx monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase lI Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September, and December. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase Il Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP313 for the pass/fail results and TRP313 for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. Permit No. NC0000752 A(5.) BIOCIDE CONDITION The permittee shall not use any biocides except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing at least ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide in the treatment system, which may be toxic to aquatic life (other than biocides previously reported to the Division). Such notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map indicating the discharge point and receiving stream. A(6.) pH REOPENER The Division may re -open this permit to remove pH limitation footnotes at Outfalls 002 and 003, should new information indicate water quality problems due to declining pH in this portion of the river. /1 NPDES Permit Requirements Page 1 of 16 PART II STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS Section A. Definitions 2/Month Samples are collected twice per month with at least ten calendar days between sampling events. 3/Week Samples are collected three times per week on three separate calendar days. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. Annual Averaa The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar year. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Arithmetic Mean The summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. Bypass The known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. Calendar Dav The period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. Calendar Quart One of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Composite Sample A sample collected over a 24-hour period by continuous sampling or combining grab samples of at least 10o ml in such a manner as to result in a total sample representative of the wastewater discharge during the sample period. The Director may designate the most appropriate method (specific number and size of aliquots necessary, the time interval between grab samples, etc.) on a case -by -case basis. Samples may be collected manually or automatically. Composite samples may be obtained by the following methods: (1) Continuous: a single, continuous sample collected over a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow. (2) Constant time/variable volume: a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (3) Variable time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the preset gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (4) Constant time/constant volume: a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24-hour period at a constant time interval. This method may only be used in situations where effluent flow rates vary less than 15 percent. The grab samples shall be taken at intervals of no greater than 20 minutes apart during any 24-hour period and must be of equal size and of no less than 100 milliliters. Use of this method requires prior approval by the Director. � ttc NPDES Permit Requirements Page 2 of 16 In accordance with (4) above, influent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour. Effluent grab samples shall not be collected more than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period that are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, the interval between effluent grab samples may not exceed six hours nor the number of samples less than four during a 24-hour sampling period. Continuous flow measurement Flow monitoring that occurs without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. Daily Discharge The discharge of a pollutant measured during a calendar day or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day for purposes of sampling. For pollutants measured in units of mass, the "daily discharge" is calculated as the total mass of the pollutant discharged over the day. The "daily discharge" concentration comprises the mean concentration for a 24-hour sampling period as either a composite sample concentration or the arithmetic mean of all grab samples collected during that period. (40 CFR 122.3) Daily Maximum The highest "daily discharge" during the calendar month. Samplin Parameters requiring daily sampling shall be sampled 5 out of every 7 days per week unless otherwise specified in the permit. The Division expects that sampling shall be conducted on weekdays except where holidays or other disruptions of normal operations prevent weekday sampling. If sampling is required for all seven days of the week for any permit parameter(s), that requirement will be so noted on the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Page(s). DWO or "the Divisio" The Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. EMC The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. Facility Closure The cessation of wastewater treatment at a permitted facility, or the cessation of all activities that require coverage under the NPDES. Completion of facility closure will allow this permit to be rescinded. Geometric Mean The Nth root of the product of the individual values where N = the number of individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of "0" (or "< [detection Ieveq'� shall be considered = 1. Grab Sample Individual samples of at least 100 ml collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Grab samples can be collected manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge (or the receiving stream, for instream samples). Hazardous Substance Any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. Instantaneous flow measurement A measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. Version 620/2003 NPDFS Permit Requirements Page 3 of 16 Monthly Averagg (concentration limit) The arithmetic mean of all "daily discharges" of a pollutant measured during the calendar month. In the case of fecal coliform, the geometric mean of such discharges. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. Quarterly Av a (concentration limit)limit) The average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. Severe prop= damage Substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage excludes economic loss caused by delays in production. Toxic Pollutant: Any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. Upset An incident beyond the reasonable control of the Pemrittee causing unintentional and temporary noncompliance with permit effluent limitations and/or monitoring requirements. An upset does not include noncompliance caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation.

Ross Jr., Secretary NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF Alan Klimek, PE, Director ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES March 7, 2003 Chris Puryear, Environmental Supervisor International Paper Corporation P.O. Box 580 Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina 27870 Subject: Dear Mr. Puryear: Permit No. Internation; Roanoke R Halifax County In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under NPDES stormwater permit NCS000106, the Division of Water-Quathy (Division) is forwarding herewith the subject state - NPDES 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 US Environmental Protection agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended). Please note that the Division has revised the analytical monitoring strategy for individual stormwater permits. Based on a review of the permit monitoring data received to date, the analytical monitoring measurement frequencies have been changed and cut-off concentrations have been removed. These changes will be implemented for all second term individual stormwater permits with analytical monitoring requirements. For those permits with analytical monitoring requirements, Part 11- Monitoring, Controls, and Limitations for Permitted Discharges has been modified to reflect the change in monitoring strategy. The qualitative monitoring strategy remains the same as the first term of the permit. Please note that the semi-annual qualitative monitoring is a requirement of the permit. Failure to complete the monitoring as required is a violation of the permit and any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of the Clean Water Act. Reference Part III, Section A, Item 2 'Duty to Comply", Item 9 'Penalties for Tampering " and Item 10 'Penalties for Falsification of Reports" of your permit for further information. In response to your letter of November 14, 2000, commenting on the Draft Permit, we offer the following: 1. You had significant concern about the ability to accomplish quarterly sampling in the fourth year of the permit. We appreciate the effort made to get all outfalls sampled and we agree that it is more appropriate for you to have annual sampling even during the fourth year. The permit has been modified to remove the quarterly sampling in the fourth year. 2. You had requested that the permit contain language such that representative rainfall events that only occurred on weekends, holidays, or at night would not be required to be sampled and would not be considered to be missed opportunities to sample. We understand the difficulty in getting a 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 FAX 919-733-9919 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 10% post -consumer paper Page 2 representative rainfall event but since only one event per year is required at the outfalls, we believe additional language in the pemut concerning weekends, holidays and nights is not warranted. You may want to consider requesting representative outfall status for certain outfalls in order to reduce the number of outfalls that must be sampled. The permit language in this regard remains unchanged. 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 Fled with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611 -7447. Unless such demand is made, this. decision shall be final and binding. Please take notice this permit is not transferable. Part III, B.2. 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 permit that may be required.

Part I Page 1 of 2 Permit No. NCS000106 PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR PERMITTED DISCHARGES SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN The permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following items: 1. Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following: (a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted equivalent map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation routes and surface waters, the name of the receiving water(s) to which the stormwater outfall(s) discharges, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate storm sewer system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters; and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. (b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. (c) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations, existing BMPs and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. For each outfall, a narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. (e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3. 2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall incorporate the following: Part 11 Page 1 of 6 Permit No. NCS000106 (a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Schedule. A schedule to provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals, or storage of hazardous substances to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. (c) BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of stormwater discharges. 3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, a SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP. 4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Part II Page 2 of 6 1 N 1[i_M6MZWICIT11UM 5. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in any of the facility's operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified. 6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented and position assignments provided. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 3) to the Director that the changes have been made. 8. Facility Inspection Program. Facilities are required to inspect all stormwater systems on at least a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September -November) and once in the spring (April - June). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s) making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring as required in Part II of this permit shall be performed in addition to facility inspections. 9. Implementation. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements, inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the log of the sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his authorized representative immediately upon request. Part II Page 3 of 6 Permit No. NCS000106 SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater subject to the provisions of this permit. Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified below in Table 1. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required monitoring will result in a minimum of 4 analytical samplings being conducted over the term of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). The permittee shall complete the 4 analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified below in Table 2. Table 1.

Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. No analytical tests are required. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls does not need to be performed during a representative storm event. In the event an atypical condition is noted at a stormwater discharge outfall, the Permittee shall document the suspected cause of the condition and any actions taken in response to the discovery. This documentation will be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. All qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, once in the spring (April - June) and once in the fall (September - November). Table 3.

Need to Halt or Reduce Not a Defense It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this individual permit. Bypassing of Stormwater Control Facilities Bypass is prohibited and the Director may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass unless: a. Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; and b. There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary control facilities, retention of sormwater or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime or dry Part III Page 4 of 8 Pages Permit No. NCS000106 weather. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup controls should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and C. The permittee submitted notices as required under, Part III, Section E of this permit. If the Director determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above, the Director may approve an anticipated bypass after considering its adverse effects. SECTION D: MONITORING AND RECORDS Representative Sampline Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Analytical sampling shall be performed during a representative storm event. Samples shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge.

Puryear Environmental Supervisor Champion International Corporation _ N. Roanoke Avenue Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina 27870 Subject: NPDES Permit Modification NPDES No. NC000075it Roanoke Rapids Mill Halifax County Dear Mr. Puryear: In accordance with the application for a discharge permit modification received on November 19, 1998, the Division is forwarding herewith the subject NPDES permit modification. 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 December 6, 1983. In a letter dated November 18, 1998, Champion requested reduction or elimination of monitoring for ammonia and mercury. After evaluating the effluent data from the Roanoke Rapids Mill, the Division has made the following modifications to the permit: 1) The monitoring for ammonia has been reduced from 3/Week to Monthly. As discussed with Mr. Myrl Nisely, Champion will review test procedures to identify a method that will utilize a lower detection level that is constant month to month. 2) Monitoring for mercury has been eliminated. Based on information provided by Mr. Nisely, the last time mercury was detected in the effluent was in 1995. The concentration of mercury at that time was at 0.2 ug/1, which is at the detection level. Monthly mercury data since that time has shown mercury concentrations below detection levels. Mr. Nisely confirmed that mercury concentrations were incorrectly recorded on the DMRs without the .1 .e" sign. 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, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7447.

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 December 6, 1983. In response to your comment letter of July 16, 1997, the Division submits the following: 1) The description of the treatment facilities has been revised according to your request. 2) Footnote number 4 for outfall 001 was inadvertently truncated in the draft permit. The requirement to test for pentachlorophenols and trichlorophenols is applicable ONLY if chlorophenolic biocidal compounds are utilized. Otherwise, no monitoring for these constituents is required. The Ainits for these two constituents will remain in the permit, albeit the monitoring requirement may not be applicable. 3) The ammonia levels in this effluent are significantly higher than previously assumed. In addition, background levels of ammonia are much higher than typical values for waterbodics such as the Roanoke River. Since ammonia is a significant oxygen consuming waste, more frequent monitoring is necessary to assure dissolved oxygen standards are protected. Both the Weyerhaeuser and Champion paper plants on the Roanoke River have had this requirement added to their permits as a mechanism to assess that downstream dissolved oxygen levels are protected. After 12 months of data, you may request a decrease in monitoring frequency. 4) Due to the confirmed presence of mercury in the effluent, it is essential to more frequently monitor and limit this parameter. Mercury has a significant potential to be chemically changed instream making it readily bioaccumulative. The Division strongly encourages Champion to identify and eliminate the source of mercury in the effluent. P.O.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised November 1995, or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 3.7% (defined as treatment two in the procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September, and December. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DWQ Form AT -I (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Water Quality 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27607 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then monthly _ monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring.

DEFINITIONS 1. Permit Issuing Authority The Director of the Division of Water Quality. 2. DEM or "the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. 3. EM Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission. 4. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC 1251, et. seq. 5. Mass Day Measurements a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the permit. b. The "weekly average discharge' is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit. d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit. IP' Page 1 of 14 6. Concentration Measurement a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the "Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day . The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I. f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit. g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. Part 11 Page 3 of 14 7. Other Measurements a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow device. 8. Tylms of Samples a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of: (1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or (2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1 /24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system, or (3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow. In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period. b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the receiving waters. 9. Calculation of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual values where N is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual values. For purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1). c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. • IP Page 4 of 14 10. Calendar Dav A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day. However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day may be used for sampling. 11. Hazardous Substance A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116 pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. 12. Toxic Pollutant A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act. SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS 1.

'Pr p rr Qpgration and Maintenance The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems which are installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. 0 1 I I -age 8 of 14 3. Need to Halt or Reduce not a Defense It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the condition of this permit. 4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities a. Definitions (1) "Bypass' means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. (2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. b. Bypass not exceeding limitations. The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c. and d. of this section. c. Notice (1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part II, E. 6. of this permit. (24 hour notice). d. Prohibition of Bypass (1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass, unless: (A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d.

"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. b. Effect of an upset. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review. c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset. A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that: (1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset; (2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and (3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part 11, E. 6. (b) (B) of this permit. (4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II, B. 2. of this permit. d. Burden of proof. In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof. 6. Removed Substances Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of wastewaters shall be utilized/disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1 and in a manner such as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the State or navigable waters of the United States. The permittee shall comply with all existing federal regulations governing the disposal of sewage sludge. Upon promulgation of 40 CFR Part 503, any permit issued by the Permit Issuing Authority for the utilization/disposal of sludge may be reopened and modified, or revoked and reissued, to incorporate applicable requirements at 40 CFR Part 503. The permittee shall comply with applicable 40 CFR Part 503 Standards for the Use and Disposal of Sewage Sludge (when promulgated) within the time provided in the regulation, even if the permit is not modified to incorporate the requirement. The permittee shall notify the Permit Issuing Authority of any significant change in its sludge use or disposal practices. 7. Power Failures The permittee is responsible for maintaining adequate safeguards as required by DEM Regulation, Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 2H, .0124 Reliability, to prevent the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated wastes during electrical power failures either by means of alternate power sources, standby generators or retention of inadequately treated effluent. ] [I Yage 10 of 14 SECTION D MONITORING AND RECORDS I. Revresentative Samoling Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Samples collected at a frequency less than daily shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the discharge over the entire period which the sample represents. All samples shall be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit and, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other wastestream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points shall not be changed without notification to and the approval of the Permit Issuing Authority. 2. Reporting Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and reported on a monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form (DEM No. MR I, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director, DEM, postmarked no later than the 30th day following the completed reporting period. The first DMR is due on the last day of the month following the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the month following the commencement of discharge. Duplicate signed copies of these, and all other reports required herein, shall be submitted to the following address: Division of Water Quality Water Quality Section ATTENTION: Central Files Post Office Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535 3. Flow Measurements Appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted scientific practices shall be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. The devices shall be installed, calibrated and maintained to ensure that the accuracy of the measurements are consistent with the accepted capability of that type of device. Devices selected shall be capable of measuring Flows with a maximum deviation of less than + 10% from the true discharge rates throughout the range of expected discharge volumes.

Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina 27870 Subject: NPDES Draft Permit Permit No. NC0000752 Roanoke Rapids Mill WWTP Halifax County Dear Mr. Puryear: Please find enclosed the DRAFT permit for the subject wastewater treatment plant for your review and comment. The draft permit includes the following modifications to your existing permit: Monitoring for arsenic and chloride were eliminated from outfall 001. Reasonable potential analysis shows no reasonable potential to exceed water quality standards. Effluent guideline limits for BOD, TSS, pentachlorophenol and trichlorophenol were calculated based on average production data in accordance with 40 CFR 430. The calculated limits for TSS, pentachlorophenol and trichlorophenol are more stringent than the limits in the current permit. The permit limits were modified to reflect the more stringent limits. Please provide any comments you have regarding the draft permit to this office by June 16, 2007. At this time, the Division is also publishing a notice in the newspapers of general circulation in Halifax County, inviting public comment on the draft permit.

(4) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 3.7%. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, auarterlu monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase H Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September and December. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised - February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code TGP313 for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. 0 Permit NC0000752 A.

A name change was completed to change the name of the facility to KapStone Kraft Paper Corporation. KapStone operates a mill in Roanoke Rapids producing high quality unbleached Kraft paper and paperboard. The mill is integrated including power generation, chemical recovery, pulp production and final paper and paperboard manufacturing. The site operates a WWTP to treat the wastewaters generated during the process. KapStone is permitted to discharge 28.0 MGD of process water through Outfall 001, non -contact cooling water from the evaporator cooling tower through Outfall 002 and non -contact cooling water from the turpentine condenser through Outfall 003. The current permit was issued on December 30, 2004 with an expiration date of March 31, 2007. Process wastewaters are conveyed to the WWTP through a concrete lined open channel. The WWTP consists of a bar screen, 200 foot diameter primary clarifier, 28 million gallon emergency pond, 21.5 acre aeration pond with 31 aerators, four stabilization ponds with a total of 370 acres, an effluent defoamer addition system, for solids treatment sludge neutralization tank, two rotary screen thickeners, two screw presses and a sludge lagoon. The emergency pond is used to divert process flow in the event they have a power failure, mechanical problems or high strength waste. The water from the emergency pond is pumped back to the influent channel at a controlled rate. Condensate collected from the process areas is piped directly to the influent of the aeration basin.

The upstream station is located at the bridge on Highway 48, the downstream station is at the bridge on Highway 158. Dissolved oxygen was below 5 mg/1 during August of 2005, with a low value of 4.3 mg/l. The Division has an ambient monitoring station upstream at the bridge on Highway 48. Results for the ambient monitoring stations are similar to the facility data.

PERMITTING STRATEGY Waste Load Allocation (WLA) The Division prepared the last WLA for the previous permit renewal in 1997. Current limits are based on guidelines and water quality standards. The current permit includes limits for flow, BOD5, TSS, pH, pentachlorophenol, and trichlorophenol. Monitoring for pentachlorophenol and Fact Sheet NPDFS NC0000752 Renewal Page 2 trichlorophenol is no- -_zt if the facility doesn't use chot lic-containing biocides. Based on instream data that the permit holder submitted for the 2001 permit renewal, which reflect naturally occurring pH at levels occasionally below 6.0 standard units in this portion of the river, DWQ included a footnote to the pH limit requirements at Outfall 002 and Outfall 003. (These outfalis discharge non -contact cooling water back into the river a short distance downstream from where it was drawn.) The footnote states that in the event that the effluent pH at these outfalls is outside the range of 6.0 — 9.0 standard units, any value that falls within the range of pH measured at the downstream and upstream points will be considered compliant. It also requires instream pH to be sampled on the same days that effluent samples are taken. The footnote will stay in the permit. Effluent Guidelines Paper Mill's are regulated under effluent guidelines in 40 CFR 430. Subpart C applies to unbleached kraft paper production. The average production for the past three years at the Roanoke Rapids Mill was 1158.9 tons/day. The limits in Table V were calculated based on the effluent guidelines and average production of 1158.9 tons per day (2596 thousand pounds per day).

Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality The Raleigh Regional Office has reviewed the plan proposed by International Paper for disposing of NORM by hydroblasting scale from pipes into the Emergency Pond. We are confident that disposal will not cause treatability problems in the wastewater treatment plant. Likewise, after traveling through the plant, the material would not pose water quality issues in the Roanoke River. We find the information provided appropriately documents creation of this one-time waste stream to the mill's wastewater system. Permission to proceed is hereby granted.

Box 580 Roanoke Rapids, NC 27870 2. Date of Site Visit: — Personal knowledge of site 3. Report Prepared by: Myrl Nisely 4. Persons Contacted and Telephone Number: Mary Lee Ransmeier, 252-533-6255 or Chris Puryear, 252-533-6237 5. Directions to Site: Rt. 48 to North edge of Roanoke Rapids 6. Attach a USGS map extract and indicate treatment facility site and discharge point on map. Photo below 7. Topography (relationship to flood plain included): The eastern end of the "Emergency" pond where removal is proposed is a significant distance from papermill activity. See photo below. NPDES Staff Report Page 1 PART II - DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM AND PROPOSED ACTION Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) is deposited in piping that has transported river water for many years, and is then eventually removed from within the papermill. Scale gradually accumulates over time. The alpha radiation emitted from thorium and uranium carbonates is very weak, and occurs only in short lengths of the pipes, not the entire length. The company proposes hydroblasting (use of a high energy water jet) inside the pipes, with the discharge going into the end of an emergency spill pond most distant from the production facility. The blasting is expected to re -dissolve the scale. But if flakes are dislodged that do not dissolve, they will become immobilized in the solids on the bottom of the pond. On the infrequent times that water is pumped back into the wastewater plant from this pond, the pickup point is at the opposite end of the pond. The returning flow would be slowly added to the 14 MGD typically coming from the papermill to the bar screen. Therefore, the NORM containing water would be greatly diluted. There is no concern over radiation for workers doing the hydroblasting. They will wear protective clothing to protect breathing and to keep water from their skin. PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION Photo of pond and proposed working site: NPDES Staff Report Page 2 PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS This removal of NORM is a one-time event, needed as a condition in the sale of the papermill. There is no reason to modify wastewater permit NC0000752 in which the emergency pond is a component. The attached letters from the Radiation Protection Section and the Division of Solid Waste Management indicate approval by those agencies. I recommend that permission be granted for this process. There is not expected to be any damage to the environment or danger to public health.

H Division of Water Quality Surface Water Protection 3800 Barrett Drive Raleigh, NC 27609 SUBJECT: International Paper pipe scale containing naturally occurring radioactive material Dear Mr. Nisely: International Paper in Roanoke Rapids has approximately four to five cubic yards of pipe with a small amount of scale containing naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM). In previous years, we have worked with North Carolina State University in determining the specific activity of this scale. A letter date July 16, 1996 signed by Ralton J. Harris, Environmental Health Physicist of North Carolina State University documents results from gamma spectroscopic and gross alpha -beta analysis that the pipe scale contains — 0.006 microcurie per gram of the decay progeny of uranium and thorium. Based on these results, we recommended that the Division of Solid Waste approve the disposal of the pipe containing this scale into International Paper's on -site landfill. This was approved on July 24, 1996 in a letter signed by William L. Meyer. International Paper on -site landfill was closed and they began storing this pipe with scale containing NORM on -site for several years. International Paper realized this waste stream would continue to grow so they implemented a procedure to remove any scale prior to removal of any pipes from the plant and the waste water generated from this activity to be distributed to the settling pond. Since this new procedure was implemented, it is my understanding that it has solved their pipe scale problem. This four to five cubic yards of pipe with scale containing NORM is still being stored on -site at International Paper. We recommend that the Division of Water Quality, Surface Water Protection approve International Paper to remove the pipe scale into their settling pond. Sincerely, Wendy B.

Ceriodaphnia dubia 48 hour acute testing for the product indicates an LCso of 420 mg/L. Given that there is no half-life data available for the product, a very environmentally conservative application factor of 0.01 was applied to generate a level protective for chronic toxicity. This resulted in a safe level of 4.2 mg/L. Assuming an application rate of 300 ml/minute for the product, maximum permitted effluent flow of 28 MGD, and a minimum stream flow of 1000 cfs for the Roanoke River, I calculated a maximum instream concentration of the product of 0.17 mg/L. The use of the product at the stated dosage rate and discharge conditions will not cause toxic impacts to aquatic life in the Roanoke River. Therefore, the use of the product at International Paper's Roanoke Rapids facility is acceptable.

The assistance of Chris Puryear, Neal Davis, Mary Lee Ransmeier and Paul Kinnin is appreciated. A tour of the facility was conducted at the time of the inspection. Laboratory records and operator records were reviewed and no discrepancies were found. Stormwater records were review and found to be complete. A review of the data for the previous year, December 2003 through 2004 was reviewed. The only violations noted were pH violations on May 27, 2004 for outfalls 002 and 003. This was caused by low pH in the river and has been addressed by the Division's enforcement policy. If you have questions concerning the inspection, please call me at (919) 571-4700.

As we discussed, we took some video of the process and I will be sending that separately in a couple of days. We were very pleased that the pipe cleaned up so nicely. We have the log sheets, etc here in our files if you should want to see them. Thank you for your assistance in approving this process.

Tingle Radioactive Waste Coordinator Radioactive Materials Branch Division of Environmental Health 1645 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1645 Dear Ms. Tingle: The purpose of this correspondence is to inform you of the disposition of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) that had contaminated scrap process piping at the International Paper Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina mill. Per approval of the plan submitted to our Regional Water Protection Supervisor by your office dated September 11, 2006 work began on NORM scale removal from the scrap piping on September 27, 2006. The removal process entailed hydro -blasting the NORM contaminated scale from the piping directly into the mill Emergency Surge Basin. The Surge Basin is part of the mill's existing wastewater treatment system. Background activity readings were initially measured away from the pipe utilizing a Ludlum Model 3 Survey Meter. Background activity was approximately 10 to 15 micro R/hr. A total of 170 pieces of NORM contaminated scrap pipe were surveyed prior to and immediately after the cleaning process. Initial activity of the NORM contaminated pipe ranged from 20 to 150 micro R/hr. The post cleaning survey showed that the activity of the scrap pipe was at background or below. The cleaning process was completed on September 29,2006 and the cleaned pipe was sent to a local scrap dealer. We greatly appreciate the effort and cooperation that we received from both the Division of Water Quality and the Division of Environmental Health in allowing us to effectively and safely dispose of this material. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 252-533-6255 Sincerely, Mary Lee Ransmeier Environmental Manager k INTERNATIONAL® PAPER t I���'�5 Roanoke Rapids Mill 100 Gaston Road Roanoke Rapids, NC 27870 November 15, 2006 Mr. Alan W.

Salisbury Street Raleigh, NC 27604 w 9 Re: International Paper Roanoke Rapids Mill Transfer of Ownership to KapStone- Environmental Operating Permits Dear Mr. Klimek, International Paper has entered into an agreement to sell the Roanoke Rapids Kraft Paper Mill to a newly formed company, KapStone Kraft Paper and Packaging Corporation. The mill will continue to manufacture the same products, Kraft paper and light weight liner board at our integrated Kraft pulp and paper mill without any interruption. We are currently awaiting final approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission, but anticipate a closing of December 31, 2006. Therefore, the new permits must be effective January 1, 2007. Because of a given amount of uncertainty, I wanted to give you as much advance notice as possible and will confirm the date of closing as soon as we are informed. A copy of the ownership change forms are enclosed for the following envirotirgjgllyN01' 033� permits now held by International Paper: 1. NC0000752-NPDES Wastewater Treatment Facility f 900Z I Z AM 2.

WQ0000436-Solid Waste Landfill y z ppr ao ( As soon as approval of a sale finalized, I will be able to notify you and will submit original signed and dated permit change forms. As noted above, the only permit that needs revision is the Stormwater Permit. International Paper will retain ownership of an on site landfill, closed in 1998, which has one stormwater monitoring discharge point designated as "Lowground." I look forward to working with you and your staff on this change of ownership as our mill enters its one hundredth year of manufacturing in Eastern North Carolina. And we anticipate many more years of continued business in the State.

Persons Contacted and Telephone Number: Mary Lee Ransmeier, 252-533-6255 or Chris Puryear, 252-533-6237 Directions to Site: Rt. 48 to North edge of Roanoke Rapids 6. Attach a USGS map extract and indicate treatment facility site and discharge point on map. Photo below 7. Topography (relationship to flood plain included): The eastern end of the "Emergency" pond where removal is proposed is a significant distance from papermill activity. See photo below. NPDES Staff Report Page I PART II - DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM AND PROPOSEb ACTION Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) is deposited in piping that has transported river water for many years, and is then eventually removed from within the papermill. Scale gradually accumulates in some piping over many years. The alpha radiation emitted from thorium and uranium carbonates is very weak, and occurs only in a short lengths of the pipes. The company proposes hydroblasting (use of a high energy water jet) inside the pipes, with the discharge going into the end of an emergency spill pond most distant from the production facility. The blasting is expected to re -dissolve the scale. But if flakes are dislodged that do not dissolve, they will become immobilized in the solids on the bottom of the pond. On the infrequent times that water is pumped back into the wastewater plant from this pond, the pickup point is at the opposite end of the pond. The returning flow would be slowly added to the 14 MGD typically coming from the papermill to the bar screen. Therefore, the NORM containing water would be greatly diluted. There is no concern over radiation for workers doing the hydroblasting. They will wear protective clothing to protect breathing and to keep water from their skin. PART IH - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION Photo of pond and proposed working site: NPDES Staff Report Page 2 0 PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS This removal of NORM is a one-time event, needed as a condition in the sale of the papermill. There is no reason to modify wastewater permit NC0000752 in which the emergency pond is a component. The attached letters from the Radiation Protection Section and the Division of Solid Waste Management indicate approval by those agencies. I recommend that permission be granted for this process. There is not expected to be any damage to the environment or danger to public health.

Ross, Secretary September 11, 2006 Myrl Nisely, Env. Spec. II Division of Water Quality Surface Water Protection 3800 Barrett Drive Raleigh, NC 27609 SUBJECT: International Paper pipe scale containing naturally occurring radioactive material Dear Mr. Nisely: International Paper in Roanoke Rapids has approximately four to five cubic yards of pipe with a small amount of scale containing naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM). In previous years, we have worked with North Carolina State University in determining the specific activity of this scale. A letter date July 16, 1996 signed by Ralton J. Harris, Environmental Health Physicist of North Carolina State University documents results from gamma spectroscopic and gross alpha -beta analysis that the pipe scale contains — 0.006 microcurie per gram of the decay progeny of uranium and thorium. Based on these results, we recommended that the Division of Solid Waste approve the disposal of the pipe containing this scale into International Paper's on -site landfill. This was approved on July 24, 1996 in a letter signed by William L. Meyer. International Paper on -site landfill was closed and they began storing this pipe with scale containing NORM on -site for several years. International Paper realized this waste stream would continue to grow so they implemented a procedure to remove any scale prior to removal of any pipes from the plant and the waste water generated from this activity to be distributed to the settling pond. Since this new procedure was implemented, it is my understanding that it has solved their pipe scale problem. This four to five cubic yards of pipe with scale containing NORM is still being stored on -site at International Paper. We recommend that the Division of Water Quality, Surface Water Protection approve International Paper to remove the pipe scale into their settling pond. Sincerely, Wendy B.

International Paper Company has developed strategic alliances with several chemical manufacturers which offer economic benefits over previous suppliers. The defoamer that we presently use in our effluent is Callaway A187 made by Vulcan Performance Chemicals. The 48 hour LC50 for Ceriodaphnia Dubia when using the Vulcan material is greater than 500 mg/l. The replacement for the Vulcan chemical is manufactured by Betz Chemical (Foamtrol 3560) and has a LC50 of 420 mg/l. When using the Vulcan product the maximum application rate was approximately 300 mUmin. The Betz product appears to be more efficient than the Vulcan material but if we have to feed at the same 300 ml/min rate the maximum concentration in the river should not be greater than 5.7 mg/l. This is based on a minimum river flow of 1000 (dam permit). Attached you will find a copy of the toxicity test report conducted on the Betz/Hercules Foamtrol AF 3560. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (252) 533-6237 or email me at chris.purvear@ipar)er.com.

There is turbulence at that location. The new meter will also measure velocity with 5 sensors around the pipe, and averages the values. The new location should provide better reading with laminar flow and a smaller pipe diameter so that velocity is faster. Tom Belnick and I advise that this is a Replacement in Kind change that will not require an AtC. The defoamer is added after the Toxicity sampling site. Chris Puryear recognized the need to document any toxicity threat from the new defoamer, so has had comparative tox tests run. The new one showed slightly less tox (LC50 of 493 mg/l vs. 500 mg/l for the old defoamer). He will mail a letter to RRO repo mg this study.

We want to install a multi sensor velocity flow meter made by Marsh McBirney. Do we need a ATC before we can install it? I almost forgot to ask. Our present meter (as you know) is before the effluent gate valve and right before the line reduces from 54 inches to 36 inches. We want to replace our existing single sensor velocity probe with a multi -sensor unit and place it about 10 pipe diameters downstream from the flow meter. We know the pipe flows full and the flow should be laminar in that location. Also we have switched defoamer suppliers (corporate edict) so who do I need to call about switching defoamers?

The assistance of Chris Puryear, Neal Davis, Mary Lee Ransmeier and Paul Kinnin is appreciated. A tour of the facility was conducted at the time of the inspection. Laboratory records and operator records were reviewed and no discrepancies were found. Stormwater records were review and found to be complete. A review of the data for the previous year, December 2003 through 2004 was reviewed. The only violations noted were pH violations on May 27, 2004 for outfalls 002 and 003. This was caused by low pH in the river and has been addressed by the Division's enforcement policy. If you have questions concerning the inspection, please call me at (919) 571-4700.
