Hey Caroline, I have a couple of questions about the second facility listed in this notice for the Auman's Mobile Home Park WWTP. The new draft permit has been issued, but they appear to have several outstanding NOV/NODs and I'm not seeing any documentation that they have paid their most recent civil penalty. 1) Can the permit be denied if they have not paid any outstanding civil penalties? 2)What new conditions in the permit will ensure better compliance w/ permit limits going forward? Particularly some of the higher fecal coliform violations. Thank you for your assistance.

VAN DER VAART secremry Water Resources ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY S. JAY ZIMMEi RMAN Director Memorandum To: NPDES Complex Unit From: Tom Belnick Date: July 20, 2016 Subject: NPDES Permitting Guidance NPDES Implementation of Ammonia Criteria-Update NC has still not adopted an ammonia standard, though it is on our WQS Triennial List for next round. NC did establish ammonia chronic criteria for use in NPDES permitting back in 1989/90, which was based on EPA's 1986 criteria development document that factored in pH/Temp across three regions of the State (see attached). This evaluation resulted in ammonia chronic criteria of 1.0 mg/l NH3-N (summer) and 1.8 mg/l NH3-N (winter) for use in permitting purposes. NC implements these chronic criteria as Monthly Averages limits utilizing instream dilution. In 2002,NC developed procedures for complimentary acute permit limits (discussed below). The current ammonia permitting procedures should be as follows: • The NH3/TRC Wasteload Allocation(WLA) spreadsheet automatically calculates appropriate ammonia Monthly Average limits for summer and winter. The spreadsheet assumes a background ammonia concentration of 0.22 mg/1. • For any permit (new/renewal), always run the NH3/TRC WLA spreadsheet to verify appropriate Monthly Average Ammonia Limits for protection of aquatic life. • If the allowable ammonia concentration is greater than 35 mg/l,no limit should be imposed. • If the allowable concentration is less than 35 mg/1,then the allowable limit is needed and the spreadsheet will automatically calculate it. • For Municipal facilities,the acute limit will be expressed as a Weekly Average, and is based on multiplying the Monthly Average limit by a factor of 3. • For non-Municipal facilities,the acute limit will be expressed as a Daily Maximum, and is based on multiplying the Monthly Average limit by a factor of 5. • If a new more stringent ammonia limit is required, discuss the need for a Compliance Schedule with senior staff and then with the Permitee. • There is no RPA procedure used for ammonia; it is implemented strictly based on WLA spreadsheet results (similar to TRC). State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Water Resources 1617 Mail Service Center I Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1617 919 707 9000 DocuSign Envelope ID:4FB200E5-OA39-47EC-944B-AB5DE7156053 Page 12 • A sample NH3/TRC WLA is attached. In this example, the spreadsheet indicates that Monthly Average ammonia limits of 3.2 mg/1 and 12.7 mg/1 should be imposed for summer and winter, respectively, in order to protect for NC's chronic ammonia criteria. Some additional considerations: • This guidance will need to be revisited after NC formally adopts an ammonia standard for both chronic and acute aquatic life protection. • In the past, some ammonia limits were based strictly on protection of our DO standard rather than ammonia toxicity, and that is why the permit writer should always verify the correct ammonia limit with any permit renewal using the WLA spreadsheet. • In the past, some practices allowed for maintaining a less stringent ammonia limit if the facility was consistently passing the WET test(i.e., biology trumps chemistry). This is no longer a valid approach and EPA would object. In April 2016 EPA expressly stated that NC cannot use biology to override chemical results. EPA also disallowed the use of Action Levels in permitting, in which toxicity test results (if passing) were used to override the need for permit limits for copper/zinc/silver/iron/chloride.
