Easley, Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Coleen H. Sullins, Director Division of Water Quality February 14, 2008 NPDES Stormwater Permit Owner/Operator Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Sampling and Certification Requirements - Correction and Clarification Dear Stormwater Permittee: You may have received correspondence in the past about whether stormwater samples must be analyzed by a certified lab. If you are covered under a General Permit that was renewed in 2007, the information in our issuance letter and previous Technical Bulletins may have misguided you about how certification rules apply to stormwater sampling and results. We are sending this letter to correct our misunderstanding of the rules and provide more accurate direction to you on this issue. We have also posted this information on our website (http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms_Documents.htm#stormwaterGP) and in various revised stormwater General Permit Technical Bulletins. In the fall of 2007, DWQ received a request for clarification of certification requirements during the public comment period of draft renewal stormwater General Permits NCG030000, NCG060000, NCG080000, NCG090000, NCG100000, and NCG120000. In the final issuance letter for those permits, we advised permittees that all analytical results (including pH, which must be measured within 15 minutes) must adhere to the certification requirements in T15A NCAC 2H .0800, as administered by DWQ's Laboratory Section Certification Branch. While that is true for wastewater discharges originating from Water Pollution Control Systems defined under T15A NCAC 8G .0300, North Carolina certification procedures do not apply to stormwater-only discharges at this time. However, any monitoring of discharges under an NPDES permit (including stormwater) must be conducted in accordance to test procedures approved under federal regulations in 40 CFR 4136. All labs certified by North Carolina perform analyses in accordance with those procedures. So, even if your facility is not a classified Water Pollution Control System (which handles wastewater and not stormwater), any data gathered under an NPDES permit must conform to federal requirements. This includes measuring pH properly within the 15- minute hold time. Using a North Carolina certified lab is often the easiest way to comply with NPDES Program requirements. A list of North Carolina certified labs can be found on-line at: httr)://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/lab/cert.htm. Information on labs certified to measure field parameters (such as pH) and technical guidance on field pH measurement can also be found at that website (see the downloads section). The alternative to using a certified lab is to adequately train personnel to perform analyses and use equipment in accordance with the same standards. Please be sure to share this information with the employees responsible for stormwater management and NPDES permit compliance at your facility. If you have any questions regarding this information please contact a staff member of the Central Office Stormwater Permitting Unit at (919) 733-5083.

This is not meant to be a substitute for the method, but is offered as a guide to the method. HOLDING TIME: • Samples must be analyzed within 15 minutes of collection. METER CALIBRATION: • The meter must be calibrated prior to the analysis of samples. • If compliance samples are analyzed throughout the day, a post calibration check (e.g., 7 buffer) must be analyzed mid- day and at the end of the run (i.e., roughly every 4 hours based on an eight hour day). For routine work, use a pH meter accurate and reproducible to 0.1 pH unit with a range of 0 to 14, equipped with a temperature compensation device. Follow all manufacturers' recommendations for the calibration of the meter each analysis day. In all cases, the meter must be calibrated with at least two buffers. Calibrating with the pH 4 and pH 10 buffers meets standard methods requirements and brackets the pH range for most monitoring (with the exception of sludge) scenarios. The calibration; however, must bracket the range of the samples being analyzed. In addition to the calibration standards, the meter must be verified with a third calibration standard (e.g., pH 7 buffer). o In order to meet the above -specified criteria, the standard must read within a range of pH 6.9 to 7.1 ,to be acceptable. General Information: • Samples shall be gently stirred during measurement. • The electrode must be rinsed and blotted dry between measurements. All thermometers and temperature measuring devices must be checked every 12 months against a NIST certified or NIST traceable thermometer and the process documented even if the instrument is not used for reporting temperature results. To check a thermometer or the temperature sensor of a meter, read the temperature of the thermometer/meter against a MIST certified or NIST traceable thermometer and record the two temperatures. The thermometer/meter readings must be less than or equal to 10C from the NIST certified or NIST traceable thermometer reading. The documentation must include the serial number of the NIST certified thermometer or NIST traceable thermometer that was used in the comparison. Also document any correction that applies on both the thermometer/meter and on a separate sheet to be filed. (NOTE: Other certified laboratories may provide assistance in meeting this requirement.) DOCUMENTATION: The following must be documented whenever sample analysis is performed. 1. Time and date of sample collection 2. Time of calibration 3. Time and date of analysis (to verify 15 minute holding time is met) 4. Collector's/analyst's name 5. Value of buffers used for calibration 6. Value obtained for check buffer (e.g., pH 7 buffer) 7. Sample location/site 8. Post calibration checks (if applicable) 9. Report all data values to the nearest 0.1 pH unit. 10. The temperature correction (even if it is zero) must be posted on the meter as well as in hard copy format (to be retained for 5 years). 11.

Directions to Site: The facility is located on the west side of U.S. Highway 117 approximately 1.6 miles north of the Town of Rose Hill. 6. Discharge Point: Latitude: 340 51' 18" Longitude: 780 02' 11" USGS Quad Sheet: Rose Hill 7. Size: The site is approximately 20 acres. B. Topography: The site is fairly level having an elevation of approximately 80 feet MSL. 9. Location of nearest dwelling: There are several dwellings within approximately 500 feet. PLOTTED 10. Receiving stream or affected surface waters: Unnamed Tributary to Cabin Branch a. Classification: Class "C Swamp" water b. River Basin and Subbasin No.: 030622 C. Describe receiving stream features and pertinent downstream uses: This is a rural, slow moving stream which, until recently, received a downstream permitted wastewater discharge from House of Raeford chicken processing plant. There is currently a permitted cooling water discharge to a downstream tributary. PART II - DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE AND TREATMENT WORKS 1. Type of wastewater: 100 % Industrial a. Volume of Wastewater: 25 GPD b. Types and quantities of industrial wastewater: Approximately 25 GPD Boiler Slowdown C. Prevalent toxic constituents in wastewater: Boiler Conditioners d. Pretreatment Program is not needed. 2. Production rates in pounds per day: The facility will produce pelletized poultry feed at a rate of 24,000 tons per month initially. The production rate could increase by a factor of two to three based on demand. 3. Description of industrial process and applicable CFR Part and Subpart: The facility will store corn and other grains, pharmaceuticals and feed additives, and produce pelletized poultry feed. No applicable CFR Part or Subpart. 4. Type of treatment: No treatment proposed 5. Sludge handling and disposal scheme: NA 6. Treatment plant classification: Less than 5 points not rated. 7. SIC Code: 2048 Wastewater Code: Primary 16 Main Treatment Unit Code: 00000 PART III - OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION 1. Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grants Funds? No 2. Special monitoring requests: No 3. Additional effluent limits requests: No Other: PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS This is a new facility which will be used for storing grain and producing poultry feed. A 500 hp boiler will require routine blowdown at a rate of approximately 25 GPD. The applicant will submit conditioner information as soon as he can get it from the supplier. When the application was received it was assigned permit no. NC0070866 which was issued to Nash Johnson & Sons for the discharge of non -contact cooling water from a chicken hatchery. The permit does not require that any self monitoring be done. The hatchery has discontinued operation at the permitted location and has moved to a new facility about 0.6 mile south. It has been determined that there is currently a cooling water discharge from the hatchery. The Company has been informed of the need to modify the permit to reflect the new outfall location. It would probably be appropriate to add monitoring at this time. It is recommended that permit number NC0081655 be assigned for the proposed discharge of boiler blowdown. Upon favorable review of the boiler conditioner information, it is recommended that a draft permit, containing standard conditions for boiler blowdown discharges, be placed at public notice. If there is no significant adverse public comment, it is recommended that the permit be issued for a period of five years.

New Feed Mill Duplin County An application for the subject project was received December 5, 1991. A staff report was submitted dated January 16, 1992. The new facility is to be used for storing grain and producing poultry feed. A 500 hp boiler was to be installed which was to require routine blowdown at a rate of 25 GPD. The company has now decided to install an additional 350 hp boiler with a similar blowdown requirement. The total boiler blowdown volume will be less than 50 GPD. It is understood that a permit has not yet been drafted. This change will make little difference in the application but it is felt that this information should be included in the file.
