Dear Mr. Minchew:
In accordance with your application to renew your discharge permit, received July 20, 1999, the
Division hereby forwards the subject final NPDES 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 May 9, 1994.
Please note the following permit changes:
1) Based on effluent test results consistently below laboratory detection limits, the Division
has removed the limits for all volatile organic compounds (see effluent table). Please note
that the quarterly monitoring requirements for these parameters remain unchanged.
2) Previously -required parameters listed under Other Organics/Metals have also been re-
evaluated. Of these, only copper remains on your effluent table as a "monitor -only"
parameter.
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

SUPPLIMENT TO EFFLUENT. LIMITATIONS
AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
A. (2) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or mortality
significant to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 90%.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in
the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure" (revised February 1998) or
subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure"
(revised February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of
February, May, August, and November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the
NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the
permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two
following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test
Procedure" (Revised February 1998) or subsequent versions.
The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the
highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest
concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of
"detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are
specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised
February 1998) or subsequent versions.
All toxicity test results, required as part of this permit condition, will be entered on the Effluent
Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter
code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. In addition, send DWQ Form
AT-3 (original) to the following address:
Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch
North Carolina Division of
Water Quality
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Branch no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be
complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical and physical measurements and all
concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate.
Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is
employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Permit NC0079227
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 th a 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
Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring
will be required during the following month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division
of Water Quality 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.

SITE HISTORY
In 1989 the Schlage Lock Company employed a geotechnical consultant to design and install a
groundwater remediation system, first permitted in 1990. Although permitted for a maximum of
0.124 MGD, flow has averaged about 0.033 MGD. Major contaminants include chlorinated
solvents and metals. Treatment is effectively containing the plume but is anticipated to continue
for some years (personal communication from consultant Dennis Willis to Joe Corporon,
08Feb00).
The NPDES permit was last renewed on March 5, 1995 and expired on January 31, 2000. The
Division has received the appropriate documentation for permit renewal (July 20, 1999). In 1995
Schlage's consultant, Capsule Environmental Engineering, demonstrated that the treatment
system could meet chemical -specific limits without carbon filtering and petitioned the Division
to remove filters. Permission was granted [reviewed by NPDES Engineer, Susan Wilson].
System operators discovered a problem with total flow measurement (effecting data for some
unknown period prior to May 1998) when a newly installed totalizing flow n w� �me�ter disagreed with
the old (effluent meter indicated -0.66 MGD; influent meter -0.33 '"1` - The consultant
verified measurements by comparing new influent/effluent meters; corrected the problem by
switching out the old meter.

PERMITTING APPROACH
• Verification of Existing Conditions -- The Division has verified that Beech Branch is a
Class C- NSW stream; summer and winter 7Q10= 0.0 cfs and 30Q2 = 0.0 cfs; and that Beech
Branch is not listed as a 303 (d) stream (Joe Corporon, December 3, 1999).
Review of Permit Compliance Issues -- DMRs were reviewed for 1998 and 1999. Although
periods of no discharge were noted, no permit violations were found. Division contacted
Randy Jones (RRO) for status and Staff Report. RRO conducted a site visit in February 2000;
report pending.
• Review of DMR Data - The Division reviewed the DMRs for Chronic Toxicity testing.
Records indicate one failure (June 1998) following start-up after re -piping, but the system
passed TOX testing the following month, and for the subsequent five (5) quarters (through
November 1999). Considering other parameters, the 1998-99 data indicate that all effluent -
limited volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were "not detected" at lab detection limits 50 to
100 times below permit limits. Similar to VOCs, those parameters monitored as Other
Organics and Metals were reported "not detected" for two years with the exceptions of single
hits or low levels (at or near the analytical detection limits) for Cu, Fe, Pb, and Mn (see
attached Effluent Data Summary). Based on these data, the Division feels it is reasonable to
alter this permit.

PROPOSED PERMIT CHANGES
2k
Based on a reasonable -potential analysis of Other Organics and Metals, only lead was retained
in the permit with a quarterly monitoring frequency. Lead was retained because it was detected
once at 0.008 mg/L, a level above the NC action level of 0.007 mg/L (15 NCAC 2B .0200).
Furthermore, based on two years of effluent data, the Division concluded that there is no
reasonable potential for this treatment system to discharge VOCs as toxicants. Therefore, VOC
monitoring remains in the permit, but monitoring limits have been removed.

Schlage Rocky Mount Sludge Practices
Very little sludge is formed in the wastewater treatment facility at Rocky
Mount, North Carolina. The plant uses a settling tank, air stripper and final
filter to treat water from a ground water recovery system. This system is
designed to remove the chlorinated solvents that have contaminated the site
under the former Schlage Lock manufacturing facility. No chemical sludges
are formed by this process and the only sludge is silt that is carried from the
recovery wells in the water stream. The treatment process is shown on the
attached block diagram.
Some solids are captured in the Separation Tank that is primarily to separate
any chlorinated free product. These solids are drained with the solvent
phase into the product collection drum. This solvent is processed through
Safety Kleen.
Any additional solids are captured in the bag filters at the end of the
treatment system. This material coats the bags requiring eventual replaced
and disposal. About six bags per month are generated. These bags have
been analyzed for hazardous characteristics and been found nonhazardous.
They are air dried and taken by the Site Manager to the Nash County
Sanitary Landfill Convenience Center #7 for disposal as an industrial waste.
No other sludges are generated nor are any other sludge management
systems used at this facility.

Re: NPDES Renewal Application for Schlage Lock Company, Rocky Mount, North
Carolina, Permit Number NCO079227
Dear Mr. Weaver:
On behalf of Schlage Lock Company, I am pleased to submit an NPDES renewal
application including the following listed materials:
• This cover letter requesting renewal and documenting changes since the last renewal
in 1995 (one signed original and two copies).
• NPDES Permit Application — Short Form C-GW (one signed original and two
copies).
• Written documentation showing the authority delegated to me as an Authorized
Representative.
• A narrative description of the facility's sludge management practices.
• A 7.5 minute series topographical map that shows the location of the site and its
discharge.
• A summary of the most recent (May, 1999) analytical results containing the
maximum values of each chemical detected.
Since this NPDES permit covers the discharge of pretreated, recovered wastewater from
a ground water recovery system and no industrial process discharges, the information
requested for industrial facilities (production data and a PPA) are not appropriate and not
included. This was confirmed with you by phone on July 14, 1999. In addition, the
second item under Section 9 of Short Form C-GW (alternatives to surface water
discharge) was not included. You indicated during the same phone conversation that this
information is not required for a renewal application.

Since the last renewal in 1995, the ground water treatment system has functioned well
with regard to the discharge under the NPDES Permit. Quarterly analyses of the
discharge generally show no detectable organics, very low metals, acceptable suspended
solids and oil and grease. The facility passes chronic toxicity on a quarterly basis as well.
During the expiring permit period, three major changes took place at the site.
The first change was the shut down and eventual removal of the activated carbon
canisters from the treatment system. This action was approved by DENR with the
transmittal of the 1995 NPDES renewal on March 6, 1995. The carbon canisters were
removed from service on April 7, 1995 and returned to the supplier (Calgon) on July 2,
1998. No adverse effects to the NPDES water discharge have been noted due to the
removal of the carbon system.
The second change was the sale of the idle Schlage- facility to Godley Realty and
Construction in February 1996. The building will be leased by Godley to tenants for
warehouse -like operations. Schlage maintains control of the wastewater treatment
facility and NPDES outfall and has access to the system's wells and piping. The sales
agreement also defined no -build sections -on the property in order to protect the
underground remediation system. The property sale is not expected to have any effect on
the NPDES discharge. A Site Manager, employed by Schlage, operates the treatment
plant and acts as a caretaker for the system.
The third event was the replacement of the steel, underground recovery well collection
piping with a fiberglass piping system due to serious corrosion problems with the steel
system. This occurred during 1997 and required that the pump and treat system be idled
from February 7, 1997 to March 9, 1998. During this period no ground water was treated
in the treatment plant. The only discharges under the NPDES were from the treatment of
water that was pumped from the manholes in order to accomplish the pipe replacement.
These events were reported to and approved by the Water Quality Division. The system
has functioned well since its return to service on March 9, 1998.

It is anticipated that the discharge under the NPDES will continue to exhibit excellent
quality. Schlage requests that the existing NPDES Permit be renewed. If you have any
questions on this renewal package please contact me at (800) 328-0299.
