Beginning no later than 270 days from the effective date of this permit, the permittee shall begin reporting
discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report
(eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each month and
submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted facilities to enter monitoring
data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until such time that the state's eDMR application
is compliant with EPA's Cross -Media Electronic Reporting Regulation (CROMERR), permittees will be
required to submit all discharge monitoring data to the state electronically using eDMR and will be required
to complete the eDMR submission by printing, signing, and submitting one signed original and a copy of
the computer -printed eDMR to the following address:
NC DENR / Division of Water Resources / Information Processing Unit
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to the facility being
physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households have broadband access, then a
temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements may be granted and discharge
monitoring data may be submitted on paper DMR forms (MR 1, 1. 1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by
the Director. Duplicate signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above.

Requests for temporary waivers from the NPDES electronic reporting requirements must be submitted'iii�
writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the date the facility would be
required under this permit to begin using eDMR. Temporary waivers shall be valid for twelve (12) months
and shall thereupon expire. At such time, DMRs shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the
permittee re -applies for and is granted a new temporary waiver by the Division.
Information on eDMR and application for a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements is found on the following web page:
hap://poi-tal.ncdenr.or web/wq/admin/bop,/ipu/edmr
Regardless of the submission method, 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.
2. Signatory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.) (b) and supersedes Section B. (11.) (d)1
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described in Part II,
Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II, Section B.
(11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be delegated signatory authority for eDMR reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an eDMR user account

violations. "

Sonia,
An additional comment.
• Previous version of permit had year-round ammonia limits of 4.0 mg/L and 20.0 mg/L. However, the
draft permit only requires ammonia monitoring for the winter months (November to April). Should there
be a corresponding entry for Summer limits (April -October) that is lower than 4.0 and 20.0 mg/L or
should the 4.0 and 20.0 mg/L limits apply year-round as in old period?

• Division of Water Quality needs to be changed to Division of Water Resources throughout the document
• Interim director name will need to be added
• BOD parameter code should be changed to C0310 since the units of measure are in concentration (mg/L)
as per approved parameter code list on DWR website; 00310 no longer used
• TSS parameter code should be changed to C0530 since the units of measure are in concentration (mg/L)
as per approved parameter code list on DWR website; 00530 no longer used
• Ammonia parameter code should be changed to C0610 since the units of measure are in concentration
(mg/L) as per approved parameter code list on DWR website; 00610 no longer used
• Units of measure (mg/L) should be added to the dissolved oxygen column so the permittee knows what
units we expect when they report data. This is important so there are no issues when they go to use the
eDMR system.
• Total nitrogen parameter code should be changed to C0600 and units of measure added (mg/L) as per
approved parameter code list on DWR website. This comment assumes we are requesting the data
reported as "concentration" (mg/L) and not "quantity" (lb/day); 00600 no longer used
• Total phosphorus parameter code should be changed to C0665 and units of measure added (mg/L) as per
approved parameter code list on DWR website. This comment assumes we are requesting the data
reported as "concentration" (mg/L) and not "quantity" (lb/day); 00665 no longer used
• The total residual footnote should be changed to "The Division shall consider all effluent TRC values
reported below 50 µg/L to be in compliance with the permit. However, the permittee shall continue to
record and submit all values reported by a North Carolina certified laboratory (including field certified),

• Update to the Lincoln County Health Department phone number as per website: [phone]
• Update to the Iredell County Health Department phone number as per website: [phone]
• Public Notification section needs updating. Session Law 2014-122/Senate Bill 739 ratified on 8/20/14
updated the notification times for the reporting of wastewater spills under G.S. 143-215.1C. The rewrite
requires the issuance of a press release within 24 hours (not 48 hours) so the permit language should be
changed to match the general statute.
http://www.nclee.net/Sessions/2013/­Bills/Senate/PDF/S729v7.12d

SLUDGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
For
Aqua North Carolina, Inc.
No sludge will be treated on any wastewater treatment plant site operated
by Aqua N.C., Western Division
Where practical, sludge removed from a Aqua N.C., Western Division
facility will be transported via a contract hauler to another Aqua N.C.,
Western Division facility for the purpose of "seeding" a new or under
loaded plant.
Unusable (or "dead") sludge will be removed by a contract hauler and
properly disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1. Contract
haulers used by Aqua N.C., Western Division will be required to report the
quantity of sludge transported and identify the location of the proposed
disposal site if the sludge is not taken to an existing plant operated by Aqua
N.C., Western Division. Aqua N.C., Western Division has not entered into
any agreement to accept sludge into its facilities from plants not owned by
them.
Aqua N.C., Western Division will keep records on the quantity of sludge
removed from each facility, the name of the contract hauler, and the
destination of the sludge (whether used in another plant or disposed of).
The information will be kept on file and will be made available to any
regulatory agency having jurisdiction over sludge treatment or disposal.
Aqua N.C., Western Division includes all of the facilities under the
jurisdiction of the Mooresville Regional Office.
