No Does permit need Daily Max NH3 limits? limits were added for the current 0.6 MGD wastewater treatment system. Due to the tidal stream,NH3 limits cannot be recalculated using the toxicity spreadsheet. Limits will remain unchanged. Does permit need TRC limits/language? The TRC limit is at the standard for salt waters. No toxicity testing was included for the current 0.6 MGD Does permit have toxicity testing? wastewater treatment system;however,toxicity testing is included with the expansion to a 1.0 MGD wastewater treatment system. Does permit have Special Conditions? Neuse nutrient conditions Does permit have instream monitoring? No Is the stream impaired(on 303(d) list)? Yes, added to the 303 (d)list in 2008 for Copper exceeding criteria. Remains on the list.

Updated map, added eDMR language, added Neuse nutrient reo ener,&Updated AT form language in Section A. (8 COMMENTS ON DRAFT PERMIT Robbie Bullock(Environmental Program Consultant)asked why there is no toxicity monitoring under the 0.600 MGD monitoring requirements but there is toxicity monitoring under the 1.0 MGD monitoring requirements. Charles Weaver(Environmental Specialist II)answered Mr. Bullock and explained that the toxicity test was added to the 1.0 MGD monitoring requirements in 1988 under the assumption that when the facility expands to 1 MGD, it will be reclassified as a Major facility. Mr. Bullock also stated that Enterococci violations are a result of UV bulbs burning out and that no permit changes were needed related to NOVs issued during this permit cycle. Molly Nicholson(Environmental Specialist 11—Compliance and Enforcement,Aquatic Toxicology Branch) reviewed the toxicity test section of the draft permit and noted that the Aquatic Toxicology Branch accepts AT forms by email now in addition to mailed hard copies and suggested that I add the email in Section A. (8).Ms. Nicholson also included wording to add in Section A. (8) about how AT forms must be properly signed.

Per Adams(WaRO),this WWTP has been inactivated and the discharge no longer exists. He recommends that the existing 002 pipe which goes directly into the Neuse River be redesignated as the 001 pipe. An ATC exists for 0.6 MGD of the 1.0 MGD permitted flow. It is therefore recommended that a TRC limit be required above 0.6 MGD. This is an existing development which has applied for a simple renewal without expansion or modification. Since this is a tidally-influenced area,modeling was not done. However,upstream of this area has been targeted to be studied in the next five years. The results of this study may help to decide what limits are appropriate for this facility when or if it expands. Adams(WaRO)has recommended the addition of instream monitoring. Concerns have been raised that there is no such monitoring although this is a 1.0 MGD discharge to an area which has been reclassified for primary recreation. As discussed with Adams on 4/23/93 these are valid concerns. It is most appropriate for the Washington Regional Office staff to determine the most representative sites. For that reason,the instream monitoring table at the bottom of page 2 has been left blank so that the region can indicate where they would like samples collected.

There are 4 subdivisions with expansion flows of 1 MGD. To date, none have expanded to that flow. If/when they do, we will be in uncharted territory. I'm not sure if a 1MGD subdivision would be a Major permit or not—we'd have to run the EPA facility rating sheet for it. Given the low NH3 limits at the 1 MGD flow, we could take the tox test out. However, that's a decision for John to make.

For the most part, everything looks correct in the aquatic toxicity sections, although I do have a couple minor notes. ATB accepts AT forms by email now in addition to mailed hard copies. I will attach an example of another draft permit to show how this is usually worded in section A.(8). Permit writers have also recently started to include wording about how AT forms must be properly signed. I will include that wording in the same attachment. I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any questions. Best, Molly Nicholson Environmental Specialist II - Compliance and Enforcement Aquatic Toxicology Branch N.C.

There are 4 permits for 100% domestic discharges that have expansion flows of 1 MGD. They are: NCO0331 II Carolina Water Service, Inc. of North Carolina Fairfield Harbour WWTP NCO0617 19 Aqua North Carolina, Inc. Woodlake Country Club WWTP NCO0388 31 Carolina Water Service, Inc. of North Carolina Carolina Trace WWTP NCO0229 00 Carolina Water Service, Inc. of North Carolina Sugar Mountain WWTP None of the facilities has expanded to 1 MGD. None are likely to in the near future.

No privately-owned 100% domestic discharge has ever expanded to I MGD or beyond. I don't know if a new model would be required, or what basin-specific criteria might come to bear. Charles H.

The 2018 permit renewal for NCO033111 retains the 3-dimensional instream monitoring setup at the 1.0 MGD flow phase. Due to the complexity of the monitoring requirements, the difficulty in entering the requirements into BIMS, and the low probability that the expansion to 1.0 MGD will occur during this permit cycle, I have NOT added the instream monitoring to BIMS. Should the permittee ever announce expansion to 1.0 MGD, we will need to evaluate the WWTP with the EPA Rating Sheet to determine if this would make it a Major permit. No privately-owned 100% domestic discharge has ever expanded to 1 MGD or beyond. At this juncture, we also don't know what changes may occur to the Neuse Nutrient rules. This is just FYI. If they do expand to 1 MGD, the instream requirements can be entered into BIMS at that time. Let me know if you have any questions. Charles H. Weaver Environmental Specialist N.C.
