Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge 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 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). This final permit contains the following changes to its terms from those found in the draft permit sent to you on August 31, 2011. • Because a continuous flow measurement device has been installed since the draft permit was prepared, weekly, instantaneous monitoring requirement and the compliance schedule for installation of a flow measurement device have been removed. • Parameter Codes have been added. • Updates have been made reflecting administrative changes within the permitting agency that have occurred since the draft permit was prepared. 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 (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Phone: 919-807-630011ntennet.• www.ncwaterqualll .org An Equal Opportunity I Affirmative Action Employer— Made in pan by recycled paper Mr. Robert W. Pickett NC0081256 Permit Renewal 2015 p. 2 Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit.

CHRONIC TOXICITY MONITORING (QUARTERLY) The permittee shall conduct quarterly chronic toxicity tests using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised December 2010, or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration defined as treatment two in the procedure document is 90 %. The testing shall be performed as a Ceriodaphnia dubia 77day pass/fail test. The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July and October. These months signify the first month of each three month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this testing must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and 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, DWR Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1 IXa3, Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water 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 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 Water Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately. Upon submission of a valid test, 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 Resources 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.

Ward Water Filtration Plant @ Facility Class PC-1 Guilford County 17"1 o Zoll Dear Mr. Sledge: After review of the draft permit, the City of High Point is requesting the following conditions or o'� requirements be modified or removed from the draft: J , �Ivrl (] it, • Changing the monitoring frequency for Total Suspended Solids from 2 per month to weekly. Based on our historical data, the Ward Plant has never violated the current limits of 30 mg/I (monthly) or 45 mg/I daily. We are requesting that the monitoring requirement remain at 2 per month. • Removal of monitoring requirement for Manganese Fluoride, Copper and pH. Manganese: The Ward Water Plant has never had a problem with Manganese. Both of the surface water source lakes are aerated and what small amount does enter the plant is oxidized in the filters. The finished water has no detectable amounts. Fluoride: As recommended by the EPA, the facility does not exceed the average value of 0.7 mg/I. This is less than half of the stream quality limit of 1.8 mg/L. The receiving stream should not be negatively impacted from this parameter. Copper: Copper in our source water is almost always non -detectable and is non -detectable in our finished water. pH: pH was dropped from the Ward permit 2 cycles ago. The Ward Plant has never had a NOV for ph while on chloramines or free chlorine. • Removal of Ammonia Nitrogen requirement: The city uses chloramines for secondary disinfection but the filter backwash water is performed with free chlorine, as such, ammonia should not be J l present in the setting lagoons.

In summary the City of High Point is requesting the following: • Total Suspended Solids to remain at 2 times a month ex • Removal of monitoring requirement for Manganese, Fluoride, Copper and pH AWN • Removal of Ammonia Nitrogen requirement nla • Whole Effluent Toxicity and associated parameters to annual monitoring. dG I respectfully submit these recommendations and fill confident you will consider these requests.

Ward Water Filtration Plant Solids Handling Plan NCO081256 The Frank L. Ward Water Filtration Plant has (2) -10 million gallon settling ponds for alum sludge which includes process waste and filter backwash. Solids are accumulated for a period of about 2 years or until the ponds are approximately three quarters full. At this time, the City of High Point bids the sludge removal out and awards contract to low bidder. The company that wins the contract brings in portable centrifuges and dewaters the sludge which in turn is disposed of at the local landfill.
