Basic Facility Information Facility Information Applicant/Facility Name: Town of Manteo / Manteo WWTP Applicant Address: PO Box 246, Manteo, NC 27954 Facility Address: 710 Bowsertown Rd, Manteo, NC 27954 Permitted Flow: 0.6 MGD / 1.0 MGD Facility Type/Waste: MINOR Municipal: 100% domestic / MAJOR upon expansion Facility Class: Grade III Treatment Units: Micro -strainer, grit chamber, oxidation ditch, two clarifiers, two tertiary filters, chlorine disinfection, dechlorination, post aeration, sludge digester, sludge holding lagoon, standby power Pretreatment Program (Y/N) No County: Dare Region Washington Briefly describe the proposed permitting action and facility background: The Town of Manteo has applied for an NPDES permit renewal for its WWTP in May 2023. Review of the application found it incomplete with the following attachments lacking: • Process narrative • Chemical Addendum Page 1 of 16 NC0079057 These elements were requested on 10/18/2023 and received on 10/25/2023. In the application cover letter the Town has requested the following: • Maintain reduced effluent monitoring for BOD, TSS, Ammonia and Enterococci. • Maintain reduced instream monitoring for listed parameters The town also reported actions taken per the permit's compliance schedule for copper and dibromochloromethane. These items will be addressed in their relevant sections below. This facility serves a population of —1600 residents in the Town of Manteo. The facility treats 100% domestic wastewater with no industrial users and no pretreatment program. Originally permitted as a 1.0 MGD facility, the current 0.6 MGD permitted flow was added to the permit in 1999 upon the discovery that 0.6 MGD was the design flow. The 1.0 MGD then became an expansion flow. Inflow and Infiltration (I&I): The Town did not report an average daily flow of I&I in the application, but did provide the value upon request: 0.0059 MGD over the past 12 mor . The Town did describe steps taken to minimize I&I in the application, including: • Monitoring rainfall and collection system flow at pump stations; • Smoke testing, pipe cameras and CCTV inspection to determine I&I locations and point repair; and • Replacing the oldest pump station that is nearest to Shallowbag Bay and sound -rise events. Sludge Management: From the submitted Sludge Management Plan: "The WAS [waste activated sludge] is moved from our Clarifiers manually to an aerobic digester where it is aerated for the appropriate amount of time based on the season for proper digestion of solids. When there is no supernatant volume left in the Digester, we turn the aerator off to allow the sludge to settle and are able to return a clear supernatant back to the Headworks of the Treatment Plant. Once done with decanting, the aerator is returned to working order. At the point that the sludge blanket in the Digester is too high that it effects the quality of supernatant, we then move the thickened blanket to our Sludge Holding Lagoon for storage and further aeration and mixing. We operate the Sludge Holding Lagoon in the same manner as the Digestor for further digestion and thickening of solids. When the Sludge Holding Lagoon has reached the appropriate percentage of solids, we stabilize the sludge by raising the pH to 12 standard units for 24 hours. Once the stabilization has been achieved, the sludge is hauled off by truck and land applied. The hauling is conducted by a contracted company as well as the land application of sludge.

Receiving Waterbody Information Receiving Waterbody Information Outfalls/Receiving Stream(s): Outfall 001 — Shallowbag Bay Stream Segment: 30-21-(3) Stream Classification: SC Drainage Area (miz): -- Summer 7Q10 (cfs) Tidal Winter 7Q 10 (cfs): jAL Tidal 30Q2 (cfs): Tidal Average Flow (cfs): Tidal IWC (% effluent): 100% 2022 303(d) listed/parameter: None Subject to TMDL/parameter: Statewide Mercury TMDL River Basin/HUC: Pas uotank / 03010205 USGS Topo Quad: 4Wanteo, NC Effluent is pumped through —6,000 linear feet (-1.1 miles) force main with a diffuser into the center of Shallowbag Bay. The 2022 Integrated Report does not list Shallowbag Bay as no data are available for rating. However, according to the 2021 Pasquotank River Basin Plan, the NC Division of Marine Fisheries has classified Shallowbag Bay as a prohibited shellfish growing area within Shellfish Growing Area H-1 of Roanoke Sound and associated creeks. The prohibited classification is due to potential fecal coliform bacterial levels. Downstream waters in the Sound are classified as SA; HQW. 3. Effluent Data Summary Effluent data for Outfall 001 are summarized from March 2019 through August 2023 (Table 1). Table 1. Effluent Data Summary Outfall 001.

The highest annual average flow was 0.282 MGD, 47% of the permitted 0.6 MGD flow, in 2020. 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/l 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 proposed for this permit action: The current permit requires instream monitoring for Temperature, DO, Salinity and pH at 1 ft Page 4 of 16 NCO079057 intervals vertically throughout the water column at five locations, each of which was assigned an Outfall and relative location as upstream or downstream for DMR reporting purposes (Table 2): Table 2. Instream Monitoring Locations. Outfall Location Description 001A Upstream Mouth of Douglas Creek 00113 Upstream Near the mouth of Scarboro Creek 001 C Downstream In Shallowbag Bay approximately 800 feet northeast of Sandy Point 0011) Downstream In Shallowbag Bay approximately 0.4 miles southeast of Ballast Point 001E Downstream In Roanoke sound approximately 200 feet outside of Shallowbag Bay These sampling locations were in the permit as early as 1992, initially with monitoring frequencies of 3/week in summer (June — September) and weekly during the rest of the year and also included fecal coliform monitoring. Sampling at 1 ft vertical intervals was introduced in the 1998 permit. Fecal Coliform was removed in the 2003 permit as the facility discharges treated 100% domestic wastewater. In the 2019 permit renewal, summer monitoring frequency was reduced to weekly so that all instream monitoring is consistent. A visual check of the instream locations found 001 D to be incorrectly described as it would lie in Roanoke Sound if southeast of Ballast Point. It was corrected to read "in Shallowbag Bay 0.4 mi. southwest of Ballast Point." Instream data were acquired from submitted DMRs spanning March 2019 through August 2023 for review. The data were checked against applicable stream standards as well as for effluent impacts, the latter via statistical testing of outfall averages by ANOVA followed by t-test if significant differences were found. The level of significance (p-value) for all tests were set at 0.05. In addition, the data were charted and visually checked for seasonal trends to evaluate whether increased monitoring in summer months is warranted or if year-round weekly monitoring is to be maintained as requested by the Town. The data are summarized in Table 3 and discussed below. Table 3. Instream Data Summary: averages with ranges in parentheses in the five locations (outfalls). Parameter, units 001A 001B 001C 001D 001E DO, mg/L Avg = 9.3 Avg = 9.3 Avg = 9.5 Avg = 9.5 Avg = 9.6 (6.0-13.0) (6.0-12.2) (6.6-13.2) (6.8-12.9) (6.1-13.0) Temperature, °C Avg = 19.3 Avg = 19.5 Avg = 19.3 Avg = 19.2 Avg = 19.2 (4.4-31.4) (5.6-31.0) (4.3-31.0) (4.4-31.3) (4.3-31.4) Salinity, %o Avg = 10.2 Avg = 10.2 Avg = 9.9 Avg = 9.7 Avg = 9.5 (0.3-25.9) (0.3-24.8) (0.4-22.1) (0.3-20.7) (0.4-20.4) pH, SU Avg = 7.9 Avg = 7.6 Avg = 8.0 Avg = 7.9 Avg = 8.0 (7.1-8.3) (6.88.8) (7.4-8.4) (7.18.4) (7.4-8.4) 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 among any of the locations. Concurrent effluent average DO appears lower but with similar summer minima. Page 5 of 16 NC0079057 Temperature — Temperature is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. The summer maxima at all stations were all below the 32°C standard for lower piedmont and coastal plain waters (15A NCAC 02B .0211). No statistically significant differences were found among any of the locations. Due to the multiple monitoring locations designated as upstream and downstream, evaluations of temperature increases were not made. Corresponding effluent temperatures appear higher on average than those instream. Salinity — Salinity is in the permit due to the facility discharging freshwater effluent into saltwater and is therefore a concern for aquatic life. No statistically significant differences were found among any of the locations. pH — pH is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. Ranges among stations largely were within the standards of 6.8 — 8.5 SU for salt water (15A NCAC 02B .0200), with only one upstream location, Outfall OO1B having a maximum above the maximum standard. Significant differences were found with Outfall 002 having the lowest pH on average. Concurrent effluent pH were also within the permit limits, which are also the saltwater stream standard. Conductivity — Conductivity is not in the current permit as it is an indicator of industrial waste. Since the WWTP is treating 100% domestic waste with no industrial users, this parameter is not required and will not be added to the permit. Fecal Coliform/Enterococci — Fecal Coliform was removed from the permit in 2003 as the facility discharges treated 100% domestic wastewater. Division guidance on instream monitoring allows for fecal coliform to be removed unless the receiving water is either a Class B or is impaired for this parameter. Shallowbag Bay is neither a Class B nor is impaired for the parameter, but it is excluded from shellfish growing due to potential fecal coliform issues. Based on the relevant information and that no instream data exist (i.e., no ambient monitoring stations are in the Shallowbag Bay area), Fecal Coliform effluent and instream monitoring will be added to the permit at a monthly frequency at all locations to track bacterial levels in the bay. With the current renewal application, the Town requested that the reduced monitoring frequency of 1/week year-round be maintained citing scheduling and use of a boat to access all instream locations of Shallowbag Bay. Considering this request and review of the data finding no statistically significant differences among the five monitoring locations for all parameters, current monitoring frequency is maintained. Is this facility a member of a Monitoring Coalition with waived instream monitoring (YIN): NO Name of Monitoring Coalition: NA 5. Compliance Summary Summarize the compliance record with permit effluent limits (past 5 years): From September 2018 through August 2023 the facility had reported no exceedences that resulted in violation actions. Summarize the compliance record with aquatic toxicity test limits and any second species test results (past 5 years): The facility passed 19 of 19 quarterly chronic toxicity tests. A bioassay inspection was conducted in May 2022 in which an acute 24-hr Pimephales promelas (Fathead Minnow) test was sampled for and which resulted in a pass, indicating compliance. Page 6 of 16 NC0079057 Summarize the results from the most recent compliance inspection: The most recent facility inspection conducted in November 2022 reported that the facility was in compliance with its permit. A bioassay inspection was conducted in May 2022 in which an acute 24-hr Pimephales promelas (Fathead Minnow) test was sampled for and which resulted in a pass, indicating compliance. 6. Water Quality -Based Effluent Limitations (WQBELs) 6.1 Dilution and Mixing Zones In accordance with 15ANCAC 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: Winter and summer BOD5 limits in the current permit are set based on the results of a Georgia Estuary Model (GAEST — version 2) in the 1990 wasteload allocation (WLA) for the then 1.0 MGD flow tier and maintained upon adding the 0.6 MGD flow tier in the 1999 permit when discovered that the latter is the design flow in 1997. No changes are proposed from the previous permit 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: The current permit sets a daily maximum limit for TRC of 13 µg/L based on federal criteria for saltwater facilities. TRC limits were reviewed in the attached wasteload allocation (WLA) and were found to be protective of the receiving stream. No changes are proposed for TRC. The current Ammonia winter monthly average and summer monthly average limits of 4 mg/L and 2 mg/L at 0.6 MGD are set based on the results of a Georgia Estuary Model (GAEST — version 2) in the 1990 wasteload allocation (WLA) for protection against oxygen -consuming waste at 1.0 MGD. In 2003, the Division implemented a statewide policy resulting from EPA requirements that set weekly average Ammonia limits based on a 3:1 ratio with the monthly average. As a result, the permit adopted weekly winter and summer ammonia limits of 12 mg/L and 6 mg/L, respectively. With the addition of the design flow of 0.6 MGD in the 1999 permit, these limits were applied to the lower flow, while maintaining them at 1.0 MGD redesignated as an expansion tier. Based on a WLA designed to protect aquatic life from Page 7 of 16 NC0079057 ammonia nitrogen toxicity, run for the 2017 permit, the limits for ammonia nitrogen at 1.0 MGD were reduced to 1.0 mg/L in the summer and 2.0 mg/L in the winter. The WLA used in 2017 was designed for freshwater, not saltwater. To address saltwater ammonia toxicity, a site -specific WLA was run for the current renewal, using effluent and instream temperature and pH data as well as instream salinity data for site -specific limits applicable to saltwater. Since the receiving water is tidal and is effectively 0.0 cfs, the results are the same at both flow tiers. The resulting site -specific saltwater ammonia allowable concentrations are 1.4/3.4 mg/L monthly/weekly average in summer and 2.5/6.2 mg/L monthly/weekly in winter at both flow tiers. These concentrations will be applied as limits in the permit. Review of submitted effluent data in as summarized in Table 1, yielding nearly all to be nondetects at < 0.1 mg/L, found that the revised limits can be met with little difficulty. 6.4 Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) for Toxicants If applicable, conduct RPA analysis and complete information below. 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 '/2 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. A saltwater RPA was conducted on effluent toxicant data collected between March 2019 — August 2023. It should be noted that the submitted metals data have the wrong parameter code despite the permit listing the correct code (e.g., Total Copper is entered as CO042 when it should be 01042). Based on the proximity of the Roanoke Sound, a class SA; HQW water, and Scarboro Creek and Douglas Creek, both class SC; HQW waters, the High Quality Water limitations of 50% stream standards for toxicants apply. 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 Copper ■ MA = 1.8 µg/L; DM = 2.9 µg/L at both flow tiers o Total Zinc ■ MA = 42.8 µg/L; DM = 47.6 µg/L at both flow tiers o Dibromochloromethane ■ MA, DM = 10.5 µg/L at both flow tiers o Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate ■ MA, DM = 0.2 µg/L at both flow tiers 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: Total Nickel at both flow tiers. o Bromodichloromethane will require monthly monitoring to gather more data for evaluation. 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: Bromoform at both flow tiers. Page 8 of 16 NC0079057 • POTW Effluent Pollutant Scan Review: NA; effluent pollutant scans are not required in the current permit at the current permitted flow of 0.6 MGD. 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 Toxici , 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. Describe proposed toxicity test requirement: Manteo WWTP is a Minor POTW, and an acute WET limit at 90% effluent using Fathead Minnow (Pimaphales promelas) at 0.6 and 1.0 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. Describe proposed permit actions based on mercury evaluation: The current permit requires low level mercury monitoring at once per 5 years, to be analyzed by EPA Method 1631E. No mercury data were available for review, and sampling was requested on 10/27/2023. The required sample was collected on 11/13/2023, yielding a result of 1.05 ng/L, below the TBEL of 47 ng/L and the WQBEL of 12.5 ng/L at both flow tiers. The facility is < 2 MGD and does not meet the criteria requiring an MMP. No changes are proposed. 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 waterbody has no TMDL or Nutrient Management Strategy. The current permit has monthly monitoring for Total Nitrogen and 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. 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 10/25/2023. On the Chemical Addendum the Town noted: `No anticipated additional pollutants since issuance of last permit." The receiving water is a saltwater bay within the Roanoke Sound and not a designated water supply. The facility discharges 100% domestic waste; thus 1,4-Dioxane is not anticipated and no requirements for this parameter were added to the permit. However, based on the pervasive nature of PFAS chemicals and following EPA guidance on PFAS monitoring (memo, 12/5/2022), 2/year Page 9 of 16 NC0079057 monitoring for PFAS will be added to the permit to generate data for future evaluation. Implementation of HAS monitoring will be delayed until six months after the final EPA Method 1633 is published in the Federal Register to allow laboratories to become certified in the new method. 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 15A NCAC 2H. 01 07(c) (2)(B), 40CFR 122.47, and EPA May 2007 Memo: The current permit has a compliance schedule for Total Copper and Dibromochloromethane limits [A. (4.)] with a compliance date of July 1, 2022 for both parameters. Since the compliance date has passed, the compliance schedule will be removed from the permit. With the new HQW-applied toxicant limitations, a five-year compliance schedule with a dilution study option has been added to the permit for Total Copper, Total Zinc, Bromodichloromethane, Dibromochloromethane and Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate. If applicable, describe any water quality standards variances proposed in accordance with NCGS 143- 215.3(e) and 15A 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 mg/L BOD51TSS 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 BOD51TSS included in the permit? YES. Review of the data for both parameters found removal rates to be > 85%. If NO, provide a justification (e.g., waste stabilization pond). 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 (EA-4) and any water quality modeling results: NA 9. Antibacksliding Review: Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(l) 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). Page 10 of 16 NC0079057 Are any effluent limitations less stringent than previous permit (YES/NO): No, but quarterly monitoring for Bromoform was removed from the permit. If YES, confirm that antibacksliding provisions are not violated: Based on RPA results of recent effluent data showing no reasonable potential to exceed stream water quality standards (hereafter "RP"), monitoring requirements for Bromoform 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. The current permit requires reduced effluent monitoring of 2/week for BOD5, NH3, TSS and Enterococci at both flow tiers. However, per 15A NCAC .0508, monitoring requirements for NH3 is weekly for Class III facilities (i.e., 0.5 — 2.5 MGD permitted design flows), which Manteo WWTP is. Therefore, Ammonia monitoring will be reset to weekly at both flow tiers. With the permit renewal application, the Town requested the reduced monitoring frequencies be maintained, citing that the Town meets criteria for exceptionally performing facilities as outlined in 2012 Division guidance. Review of the past three years of data (Sep 2020 Aug 2023) found all above parameters to meet numerical criteria. Reduced monitoring for BOD5, TSS and Enterococci is maintained at 0.6 MGD, but reset to the rule frequency of 3/week at 1.0 MGD. A footnote will be added allowing the Permittee to request reduced monitoring after six months at the expanded flow tier if no exceedance violations have occurred. 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. 12.

This plant treats wastewater utilizing preliminary screening and grit removal, secondary biological treatment and nutrient removal via an oxidation ditch and secondary clarifiers, tertiary effluent filtration and post aeration followed by chlorination disinfection and de -chlorination prior to discharging effluent to Shallowbag Bay. Wastewater entering the plant is directed through a micro -strainer unit and grit removal system. The micro - strainer removes large and stringy objects from the wastewater flow that could damage downstream process equipment while also rinsing the screenings, returning organics to the waste stream. Wastewater then flows through a grit removal system that removes the inorganic solids (grit) which will not break down in the biological system while allowing the organic solids to continue through the treatment process. Effluent wastewater from the grit removal system and drainage from various treatment processes are pumped by the influent pumps to the oxidation ditch where the concentration of organic matter and nitrogen are reduced during the extended aeration activated sludge process by the biological action of microorganisms. The organisms convert the organic matter into biomass and release nitrogen as gas. The oxidation ditch provides the oxygen needed by microbes in the system for biological oxidation of organic materials and for the conversion of ammonia to nitrate and the anoxic conditions needed for denitrification. Effluent wastewater from the oxidation ditch flows to the final clarifiers which provide an undisturbed environment for the separation of solids from the water. Prior to the two clarifier tanks, a dual chemical program of Jenfitch JC 9830 and Jenfitch JC 1687 is injected in the splitter box downstream the oxidation ditch which attaches to the dissolved copper in the wastewater and allows for it to settle as a floc particle with the settled solids. After both settle in the clarifiers, the active solids along with the copper floc particles are recycled to the oxidation ditch to maintain the microbe population at a level which promoted optimum removal of nutrients and keep the copper floc particles from flowing downstream. Excess sludge is wasted from the system to the aerobic digester to maintain healthy levels of microbes in the treatment process. Wastewater displaced from the final clarifiers flows by gravity to the effluent filters. Wastewater percolates down through the automatically backwashed filters to remove a major portion of the suspended solids in the water. After water flows through the filters, it flows into the chlorine contact tank. Sodium Hypochlorite is added at the head of the tank. The wastewater is dechlorinated at the tail end of the tank by the addition of Sodium Bisulfite. Effluent flows from the contact chamber to the post aeration structure where the water is subjected to the action of a floating aerator to bring the dissolved oxygen concentration to appropriate levels before it is pumped via a force main to Shallowbag Bay for dispersal.

Overall, the area includes a total of approximately 21,340 water acres" (NCDEQ, 2016). The sampling station locations and growing areas were also mapped (Figure 5-4) in the Report of Sanitary Survey Area H-1 Roanoke Sound Area July 2011 Through March 2016 (NCDEQ, 2016). Their report also maps potential point and nonpoint sources of pollution including: wastewater treatment plants, marinas, stormwater, subdivisions, onsite wastewater, golf courses, wildlife and domestic animals, and areas of concern (Figure 5-5, NCDEQ, 2016).
