NS 320.7 Tidal Tidal Tidal 90 (acute), 2.2 (chronic) The New Bern WWTP is a major municipal plant operating in Craven County. The facility serves 24,400 people in New Bern and discharges to the mainstem of the Neuse River. In August 2003, the facility completed installation of a diffuser as part of major upgrade and expansion. The main purpose of the upgrade was to install biological nutrient removal systems for both nitrogen and phosphorus. The previous permit authorized expansion to 6.5 MGD. ' In order to comply with Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area (CCPCUA) Rule requirements to reduce groundwater withdrawal from the Cretaceous aquifer by 75% by 2018, and to provide for population growth, the City has installed a new well field to withdraw groundwater from the Castle Hayne aquifer. The City was granted a Major Modification to it's NPDES permit to add 0.5 mgd of filter backwash and softener regeneration backwash from a new 5 mgd drinking water treatment plant to the WWTP discharge in 2007. The connection is after the Wastewater Treatment Plant, the diversion line to the quarry, and before the diffuser to the Neuse River. A check valve was installed to prevent WTP wastewater containing high levels of salt from being diverted to the quarry. Pretreatment The city has an approved pretreatment program with 3 non categorical SIU and 4 categorical industrial users. The permitted flow for the pretreatment program is 0.25 mgd. The city will continue to implement the approved pretreatment program. Basinwide Plan According to the Basinwide Water Quality Management Plan for the Neuse, the primary water quality considerations for point sources in the basin are discharges of (1) oxygen -demanding substances and (2) nutrients. BACKGROUND Water Ouality Considerations Nitrogen The Environmental Management Commission adopted Nutrient Management Strategy rules in December 1997, classifying the entire Neuse River Basin as Nutrient Sensitive Waters. The point source rule (T15A NCAC 2B .0234) sets Total Nitrogen (TN) discharge limits for all point source dischargers larger than 0.5 MGD. The rule also allows dischargers to form a group compliance association and work together to reduce nitrogen; this option allows the association members added flexibility in controlling nitrogen discharges. At the same time, the association is subject to a group NPDES permit ensuring that the association and its individual members are accountable if they exceed the applicable nitrogen limits. Under the rule, there are three types of TN limit in the Neuse: 1. the individual limits in the dischargers' individual permits, 2. the aggregate limit in an association's group NPDES permit, and 3. the individual allocations/limits for each Association member, also in that association permit. A discharger may be subject to the first type of limit, or to the second and third, but never to all three at the same time. The discharger is first subject to the TN limit (if any) in its individual NPDES permit. If becomes a co-permittee to a compliance association's group NPDES permit, it is then governed by the TN limits in that permit. If the association complies with its group TN limit in a given year, all members are deemed to be in compliance with their individual allocations/ limits in the group permit. If the association exceeds its limit, the members then become subject to their individual allocations/ limits as well. Regardless of which permit governs a TN discharge, allocations/ limits will likely change over time as the dischargers purchase, sell, trade, lease, or otherwise transfer nitrogen allocations. The Division will modify the affected permits as necessary to ensure that the limits are kept up to date and reflect any such transactions. NCO025348 DAM data from January 2008 through December 2009 are summarized below. Compliance History The facility has been meeting all permit limits after new treatment units have been installed in 2003. The most recent compliance evaluation inspection conducted in January 2009 indicated that all records and reports are up to date and the facility appeared to be well maintained and operated. It was found to be in compliance with permit limits. The Washington Regional Office recommends renewal of this permit. Wastewater Reuse & Groundwater Recharge The City has explored reuse as one means of reducing its direct discharge flows to the Neuse river and has received authorization to make use of the nearby Glenburnie quarry (see permit map) for this purpose. Since dewatering was halted when the quarry closed in recent years, the quarry pit has filled to form a lake as the groundwater level has returned to normal. The City has begun to discharge reuse - quality water to the lake at up to 3 MGD. The water will then infiltrate into the ground, helping to recharge the surrounding aquifer. There is considerable uncertainty on several key questions; for instance, how much water can infiltrate through this system? How much will eventually reach the Neuse River? How much of the nutrients or other materials in the wastewater will move into the aquifer or the river? How will the discharge affect water quality in the lake? This system is expected to reduce the amount of nitrogen discharged to the river (and eventually the estuary). This could be taken into account in measuring the City's TN load into the river and estuary. However, given the uncertainty surrounding the project, it is not possible at this time to know how to estimate the amount of nitrogen permanently diverted from the river. The quarry project will serve to demonstrate the actual performance of the system and may provide enough understanding to allow those estimates to be made. The City has developed a Lake Management Plan that outlines a strategy for preventing degradation of water quality in the lake. The plan includes a monitoring schedule and identifies specific actions to be taken to ensure the lake is not adversely impacted. Hydraulic Treatment Capacity Normally, a permit's flow limitation serves two purposes: (1) it limits the amount of wastewater (hence, the pollutant load) discharged to the river, and (2) it prevents the flows through the treatment plant from exceeding the approved Average Design Flow. Both limits are essential to protecting water quality. Normally, a single flow limit is sufficient to meet both needs. Confusion can arise when a facility diverts some portion of its effluent for reuse or other non -discharge options. A single flow limit no longer meets both needs, and it becomes necessary to distinguish between plant flows and discharge flows and to limit both. This permit proposes separate flow limits for the WWTP (measured at the influent) and for Outfall 001, in order to make the distinction between the two flows and ensure that flows do not exceed either the receiving stream's assimilative capacity or the plant's hydraulic capacity. It also proposes continuous monitoring of the quarry flow to ensure accurate measurement there. Ouarry Discharae. The City has received a non -discharge permit, No. WQ0017635, to reuse any or all of its treated effluent (effectively limited by infiltration capacity in the quarry system). Effluent limitations, monitoring requirements, sampling point(s), and other conditions for reuse are established in the non -discharge permit. This permit also authorizes pumping treated effluent from the quarry to Mackilweans Turf Farm to further reduce nitrogen discharged to the Neuse river. The NPDES permit does not include an effluent page for reuse; instead, it simply authorizes the diversion on the Supplement to Cover Page and refers to additional requirements to be found in the non -discharge permit for the reuse water flows. This permit has been developed assuming 100% of the effluent will discharge to the river with minor provisions related to measuring flows though the WWTP as well as discharges to both potential sites. The facility has been diverting up to 3 mgd to the quarry since the fourth quarter of 2006. Toxicitv Testini: Type of Toxicity Test: Acute P/F Existing Limit: 001: Acute P/F @ 90% Recommended Limit: 001: Acute P/F @ 90% Monitoring Schedule: March, June, September, and December Test organism: Mysid Shrimp (Mysidopsis Bahia) This facility has passed all of it's toxicity tests since installation of upgraded equipment. It has been passing the test since July 2003. Reasonable Potential Analysis: Reasonable potential analyses were conducted for arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, cyanide, lead, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, phenols, selenium, silver, and zinc using North Carolina's new RPA method which incorporates IQ 10 dilution for calculating acute limits. The Neuse River at New Bern is tidal, so flow data is not available for 7Q 1 Ow, QAvg, or 30Q2. When a diffuser was installed in 2003, it was modeled, therefore a 7Q10s flow is available. In order to calculate RP for Arsenic (carcinogen) and Molybdenum (Aesthetic), the only flow data available (7Q10s of 320.7 CFS) was used for Qavg. and 30Q2. These flow numbers are usually much higher than 7Q 1 Os flows, so this should be a conservative approach to evaluating RP. No Reasonable Potential to exceed Water Quality Standards was found. Based on the data, the monitoring frequency was reduced to monthly from twice per month for these parameters. The permit requires monitoring for Copper, cyanide, mercury, phenols, selenium, silver and zinc. The other metals are required through the LTMP through Pretreatment. PROPOSED PERMIT REQUIREMENTS Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements The permit includes nutrient limits consistent with the Nutrient Management Strategy rule (T15A NCAC 2B .0234). Nitro en. Under the new rule, the Permittee receives a TN Load limit of 64,210 lb/yr, a calendar year limit. The limit reflects the Permittee's original allocation plus additional allocation received upon regionalization of Zachary Taylor WWTP, Neuse Woods Apartment WWTP, W. Craven Middle School WWTP, Neuse River Water & Sewer WWTP and Craven Co. Water & Sewer Trent River WWTP's discharge. The Permittee is a member of the Neuse River Compliance Association at this time. So long as it remains a co-permittee member, it is deemed to be in compliance with the TN limit in this permit (NCC000001), and its TN discharge is governed instead by the Association's group NPDES permit, issued December 31, 2008, effective January 01, 2009. Phosphorus. The City's 2.0 mg/L Total Phosphorus limit is carried forward in the new permit. However, it is now a quarterly average limit rather than a weekly average, to conform with the new rule. The footnotes for TRC limits has been updated to reflect our permitting strategy which states that TRC results of less than 50 ug/ L are accepted as being in compliance with the permit. This is due to the many interferences encountered in measuring low levels of free chlorine in many wastewater matrixes. As a result of EPA's promulgation of the bacteria criteria in November 2004, enterococci limits of 35/ 100 ml monthly average and 276/ 100 ml weekly average were added to the permit during the 2007 modification. Since revisions to 15A NCAC 2B are now in effect, fecal coliform limits and monitoring were removed from the permit. The flow limit was removed from page A.(2) for the water treating plant discharge in accordance with the Division's WTP permitting strategy. There are three Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements pages. Page A.(1) has the requirements for the WWTP influent and effluent at internal outfall 002 after the WWTP and before the tie-in to the quarry discharge line, and before the tie-in from the WTP to ensure at least 85% reduction of BOD5 and TSS in the WWTP, and to regulate the flow rate through the WWTP to prevent the flows through the treatment plant from exceeding the approved Average Design Flow. Page A.(2) has the requirements for the waste stream from the Water Treatment Plant at internal outfall 003. Page A.(3) has the requirements for Whole Effluent Toxicity Testing based on a composite samples from both waste streams that should be representative of total discharge through outfall 001 to the diffuser.

MAYOR MAY 17 2010 The review of the draft for the renewal permit NCO025348 has raised some concerns: Section A. (1.) Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements — Outfall 002 Y The Footnote (1) , "Instream monitoring requirements may be provisionally waived per Condition A. (4)" should be Condition A. (5) with Lower Neuse Basin Association. Y The Footnote (6), "The annual mass loading for total nitrogen for Internal Outfall 002 ... should be calculated as prescribed in Condition A. (5) should be section A. (6). Y The cover page states, "Any TRC analytical results less than 50 ug/I will be deemed to be in compliance with the permit". This conflicts with the monitoring limit of 13ug/L. Section A. (2) Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements—Outfall 003 Y It was our understanding that Total Dissolved Solids would be removed (per Cheryl King, Laboratory Supervisor). On what basis was this added? This is a pressure system, so the sampling has to a "Grab" sample for TDS and TSS as in our previous permit. Y The cover page states, "Any TRC analytical results less than 50 ug/I will be deemed to be in compliance with the permit". This conflicts with the monitoring limit of 13ug/L. Y Salinity and Conductivity should be "Grab" samples as in the previous permit. What was the basis for the change to a composite? �trihing for xcr.11enee Section A. (4.) Effluent Limitations and Monitoring Requirements — Outfall 004 Y Total Nitrogen (004) to Mackilwean Turf Farm is a pressurized line and can't be a composite sample. I appreciate your assistance in addressing these issues to better serve our needs in the permit. If additional information is required, please contact Judy Majstoravich, Treatment Plants Manager at 252. 639.7555 or me at 252. 639.7526.

A couple items to note: According to the Reclaimed water Quarry Permit (W00017635), the Permit does specify that the reclaimed water is sampled with a composite sampler (for parameters like BOD, TSS, nitrogen species, etc), but this composite sampler is obviously located at the New Bern WWTP, and is located near the effluent Pump Station, if my memory serves me well. The Reuse Permit does allow for Nitrogen credits for quarry water pumped to the Turf Farm, but this obviously must be sampled at the quarry, just prior to irrigation. Again, I believe there is a sampling port on the pipe coming out of the irrigation pump station at the Quarry, or maybe the sampling port is on the pneumatic pressure tank that is located right there. In any case, that would be the preferred location for such a grab sample.... I suppose. New Bern does not have a composite sampler at the quarry irrigation pump station (at least I don't think they do). Also, there may be weeks or months where no irrigation occurs. Ken Pohlig Construction Grants & Loans Section 715-6221 From: Templeton, Mike Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 9:52 AM To: Pohlig, Ken Cc: Mckay, James Subject: FW: New Bern Permit Renewal Hi, Ken - Hope you're doing well! Please see Jim's question below. I want our requirements to be consistent with yours, but New Bern's reuse permit is silent on whether water to the turf farm should be sampled as grabs or composites. Grabs sound fine to me — I assume the weekly frequency for nitrogen samples is sufficient to give representative results. What's your preference here? -MikeT From: Mckay, James Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 11:50 AM To: Templeton, Mike Subject: New Bern Permit Renewal For the water pumped from the quarry to Mackilwean Turf Farm, you specified a composite sample. I have just received their comments on the draft permit and they want to take grab samples. Do you have any objections? I don't think the quarry composition will be changing too much over the pumping time. Thanks!
