Box 158 Bayboro, North Carolina 28515 Dear Mr. Buck: Division of Water Quality Coleen H. Sullins Dee Freeman Director Secretary September 14, 2011 Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit NCO088340 Mill Pond Water Treatment Plant Pamlico County Class PCI Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for issuance of the subject permit. 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). There are the following changes in this final permit from your current permit: • A new Monthly Average and Daily Max limit has been added for Lead on page A.(L). Monitoring remains as monthly, which is a change from the draft renewal recently sent to you for review. The new limit is due to an EPA required statistical review of your discharge data. • Monitoring for Total Copper and Total Zinc has changed to Quarterly from Monthly in accordance with our WTP Permitting Strategy. • Monitoring is removed for Total Iron and Manganese in accordance with our WTP Permitting strategy. • Monitoring for turbidity has been added in accordance with our WTP Permitting Strategy. • Instream monitoring (upstream and downstream) has been removed for pH, Temperature, Salinity, Conductivity, and Dissolved Oxygen. The discharge to a dry ditch makes instream monitoring not effective at determining impacts on aquatic life. • Monitoring for Nutrients ('IN and TP) has been changed to Quarterly from Monthly in accordance with our WTP Permitting Strategy. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. A. (2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (QUARTERLY) The permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on a guarterlX basis using protocols defined in the North Carolina Procedure Document entitled "Pass/Fail Methodology For Determining Acute Toxicity In A Single Effluent Concentration" (Revised -July, 1992 or subsequent versions). The monitoring shall be performed as a Mysid Shrimp (Mysidopsis Bahia) 24 hour static test. The effluent concentration at which there may be at no time significant acute mortality is 90% (defined as treatment two in the procedure document). Effluent samples for self -monitoring purposes must be obtained during representative effluent discharge below all waste treatment. The tests will be performed during the months of March, June, September, and December. 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 TGE3E. Additionally, DWQ Form AT-2 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental 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 Environmental 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 either these monitoring requirements 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. If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the data submitted on the DMR & all AT Forms submitted. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival 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.

Recommended Requirement: Quarterly Acute Toxicity monitoring at 90% in accordance with the WTP Permitting Strategy. The facility failed one quarterly TOX test in October 2007, one each in January and September 2010 but has passed nine Quarterly tests. INSTREAM MONITORING Current Requirement: Not required • Recommended Requirement: Disselved Gmygen, se these will be added te the peffait .. Discussions with the ORC and Al Hodge revealed that the discharge is to a zero flow dry ditch, so Instream monitoring (upstream and downstream) has been removed for pH, Temperature, Salinity, Conductivity, and Dissolved Oxygen. The discharge to a dry ditch makes instream monitoring not effective at determining impacts on aquatic life. COMPLIANCE SUMMARY A Compliance Report dated 3/ 17/ 2010 states that the facility had just been completely renovated, and was in like new condition. There was one NOV during the time period reviewed, for flow. Flow is no longer limited on WTP permits. Reasonable Potential Analysis A) An EPA required statistical review of discharge data was performed for copper, lead and zinc. Copper and zinc are both action level parameters; monitoring will be changed to quarterly in conjunction with Tox. testing with no limit. Lead will be given limits; monitoring will remain at 1/ month. PROPOSED CHANGES Oxygen. . After discussions with the ORC and Al Hodge of the Washington Regional Office, it was apparent that instream monitoring is not recommended, as the receiving stream is basically a dry ditch, with no normal flow. There is no "upstream" to sample, and the downstream should be effluent unless it is raining hard. This change should be considered to be correcting a technical error, which is a minor modification that does not require public notice. Permit limits for Lead will be added as 25 µg/ L Monthly Average, and 221 µg/ L Daily Maximum; monitoring will remain at 1/ month. Monitoring for Copper and Zinc will be changed to quarterly in conjunction with the WET test. Monitoring for Iron and Manganese will be removed as there are no NC Criteria for salt water. Monitoring for nutrients (TN and TP) was changed to quarterly from monthly in accordance with the WTP permitting strategy.

These permits are for the discharge of backwash water from filters and softeners from the County's four water treatment plants. I respectfully make the following comments and request: 1. Total Lead: Three of the four permits have the monitoring frequency for total lead 2/month with'the sample type being composite (Kershaw WTP NCO088331 is only to be done 1/month). Due to financial reasons and the time involved doing composite samples, we were hoping that composite samples could be done once a month at each WTP to satisfy all the permit requirements. Reducing composite samples from 2/month to 1/month would save the staff valuable time each month collecting samples and that time could be used elsewhere in the system. Therefore, we request that Grantsboro, Millpond, and Vandemere WTP requirements for Total Lead be changed to l /month composite or 2/month grab. 2. Up Stream/Down Stream monitoring: We currently contract with a certified lab to come on site to test for characteristics which, due to holding time requirements, cannot be sent to a lab to be tested. We currently schedule our lab to visit each of the four sites monthly to test for these characteristics. It normally takes several hours to test at each site and travel to the next. Under the new draft permit, we will be doing field samples a 3 different locations at each WTP. Not only will this increase cost, but it add additional time requirements for our staff. Therefore, we request that the sample location for these characteristics remain at the effluent, and waive the additional requirement of upstream and downstream. Pamlico County Water System will continue to work with your Division to meet monitoring requirements under this new permit as we did with our previous permit.

Buck County Manager November 26, 2008 Mrs. Dina Sprinkle NC DENR / DWQ/ Point Source Branch 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Re: NPDES Permit NCO088340 Renewal Application Dear Mrs. Sprinkle RECEIVED DEC - 1 2008 DEN - WATER QUALITY POINT SOURCE BRANCH Please find enclosed one signed original and two copies of the completed application for renewal of the Millpond WTP NPDES permit. Our current permit NCO088340 expires June 30, 2009. Please note that all the discharge under the current permit is generated from this water treatment plant. The backwash water produced comes from 2 iron filters and 2 water softeners. There have been no changes in treatment since the issuance of the current permit. Please note as of February 1, 2009 the dechlorination of the backwash water in order to meet the total chlorine residual limit will begin. Sulfur dioxide gas will be used in this process. Since the backwash water does not produce any solids or sludge, Pamlico County Water System does not have a sludge management plan or a solids handling plan. Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If any further information is needed, please feel free to contact the Operator in Responsible Charge, Mr..Edward Riggs Jr. at 252-633-6500. Sincerely, Timothy A. k NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION - SHORT FORM C - WTP For discharges associated with water treatment plants Mail the complete application to: N. C.
