Subject: Issuance of NPDES Permit Renewal
Permit No. NCO085979
NCDOT-Rosman Maintenance Facility
Transylvania County
Facility Class PCNC
Dear Mr. Hill:
Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal 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 Memorandum of
Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October
15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
No changes were made to the draft permit sent to you on September 23, 2015. The final permit
authorizes the NCDOT to discharge wastewater from its Rosman Maintenance Facility to French
Broad River, a class B-Trout water in the French Broad River Basin. The permit includes discharge
limitations or monitoring for flow, pH, chloride, and organic compounds (EPA Methods 624/625).
According to the definition of Physical Chemical Non Category (PCNC) provided by the NC D WR
Operator Certification Program and the agreement from the ARO that this facility does not require
an ORC, the Rosman Maintenance Facility was reclassified as PCNC. Please note that PCNC class
only indicates the Division is not requiring designated operators. All other permit requirements
shall remain in force.
As identified previously, the renewal permit contains the following significant changes from
your current permit:
• The requirement to begin reporting discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC
DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application has been added
to your NPDES permit. [See Special Condition A.(3.)]
For information on eDMR, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please
visit the following web page: http://aortal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/admin[bogLpu/edmr.
For information on EPA's proposed NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule, please visit the
following web site: hqp•//www2 epa gov/compliance/nronosed-npdes electronic reporting
rule.

• Limitations for pH have been added in accordance with surface water quality standards in
15A NCAC 2B .0211.
• Effluent sampling data for chloride did not show reasonable potential to violate NC water
quality standards and the maximum predicted concentration was less than half of allowable
concentration. As a result, chloride limitations were not put in the permit; however,
monitoring was maintained since chloride is the primary pollutant of concern.
• Some of the wording has changed in Special Condition A. (2.), Acute Toxicity monitoring,
please review each paragraph carefully.
The Permittee shall notice that the test results for EPA Methods 624/625 are required to include
those parameters listed in the permit effluent limitation page under Footnote #4. The list is as
follows: 2,4-Dinitrophenol, 2-Chloroethylvinyl ether, 3,3-Dichlorobenzidine, 4,6-Dinitro-2-
methylphenol, 4-Nitrophenol, Acrolein, Acrylonitrile, Benzidine, Hexachlorocyclopentadine,
Pentachlorophenol, Toluene, Bis (2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate, Ethylbenzene, and Xylenes.
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 Administrative Hearings (6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-
6714). Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.
Please note that this permit is not transferable except after notice to the Division. The Division
may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the permit. This permit does not affect
the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by the Division of Water
Resources or any other Federal, State, or Local governmental permits that may be required.
If you have questions concerning this permit, please contact Yang Song by e-mail
([e-mail]) or phone at [phone].

Permit NCO085979
A.(2.) ACUTE TOXICITY MONITORING (QUARTERLY)
[15A NCAC 02B .0500 et seq.]
The Permittee shall conduct acute toxicity tests on a quarterly basis using protocols defined in the North
Carolina Procedure Document entitled "Pass/Fail Methodology For Determining Acute Toxicity In A Single
Effluent Concentration" (Revised -December 2010 or subsequent versions). The monitoring shall be performed
as a Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) 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).
The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July and October. These months signify
the first month of each three month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility. Effluent sampling for this
testing must be obtained during representative effluent discharge and shall be performed at the NPDES
permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
The parameter code for Pimephales promelas is TGE6C. All toxicity testing results required as part of this
permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was
performed, using the appropriate parameter code. Additionally, DWR Form AT-2 (original) is to be sent to the
following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1623 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1623
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water 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 any month, 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 Water 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 Resources 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 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.

Permit NCO085979
A. (3.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS
[G. S. 143-215.1(b)]
Proposed federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and
specify that, if a state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit
DMRs electronically to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Division anticipates that these
regulations will be adopted and is beginning implementation in late 2013.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II of this permit
(Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
Section D. (2.) Reporting
Section D. (6.) Records Retention
Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
I. Reporting [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)]
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 / DWR / Information Processing Unit -
ATTENTION: Central Files / eDMR
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 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 in
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:
http://poital.ncdeiir.org/web/wci/admin/bog-/ipu/edmr
Part I, Page 5 of 6

Permit NCO085979
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.) Ml
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 U, Section B. (I 1.)(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 and
login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more information on North Carolina's eDMR system,
registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account, please visit the following web page:
http://portal.ncdenr.or web/M/admin/bog/ipu/edmr
Certification. Any person submitting an electronic DMR using the state's eDMR system shall make the
following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER STATEMENTS OF CERTIFICATION WILL BE
ACCEPTED:
'7 certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared under my direction or
supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that qual f ed personnel properly gather and
evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or
those persons directly responsible for gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of my
knowledge and belief, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for
submitting false information, including the possibility of fines and imprisonment for knowing violations. "
3. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (Q]
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including eDMR submissions. These
records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at least 3 years from the date of the report. This period

Hi Tim,
Updates on the facility operations. Currently, only one (#2 recovery well) out of 4 pumps is working. Other 3 pumps
need repair or replacement. I will add a note in the factsheet so the inspector and next permit writer will know that.
I have no further questions on the facility operation. Please refer the note from Steve about PCNC definition. If you think
the facility does not require an ORC, we can go with PCNC.

SUMMARY:
NCDOT operates a 0.0288 MGD Ground Water Remediation (GWR) facility which originally was
covered under General Permit # NCG510365. In 1992, a salt (chloride) pollution plume was detected in
the groundwater < I mile from the former salt storage facility operated by the NCDOT. Monitoring of the
plume was performed from 1992 to 1998. The highest contamination in GW was reported on 10/19/95 at
a concentration of 9950 mg/L in MW-3. After performing an EAA in 1996, ARO suggested that the
facility pump the contaminated groundwater and discharge it into the French Broad River. On 10/2/97
NCDOT-Rosman Maintenance Facility obtained an individual permit, NC0085979, to discharge into the
French Broad River with monitoring requirements. In April 2008, the pumping system was modified by
adding a fourth pumping well with lower chloride concentrations and a mixing tank to blend water from
all four wells.
The facility pumps groundwater from four (4) recovery wells contaminated with chlorides (road salt).
The facility is required to perform continuous monitoring for flow, monthly monitoring for chloride and
PH. Quarterly monitoring is required for Chemicals - EPA Method 624/625 and Acute Toxicity (Fathead
Minnow) Pass/Fail.
Originating in Transylvania County, the headwaters of the French Broad Rivers are in Subbasin 04-03-
01. Most of this Subbasin is forested, and half of the land is protected as part of the Pisgah National
Forest. The segment of French Broad River where the Rosman Maintenance Facility discharges is not
listed on North Carolina's final 2014 303(d) list. However, the 2012 North Carolina Integrated Report
shows the discharge segment of French Broad River was impaired for turbidity.
TOXICITY TESTING:
Current Requirement: Acute P/F @ 90% (also recommended with renewal).

COMPLIANCE SUMMARY:
The facility has passed all 20 WET tests from January 2010 through January 2015.
The Rosman Maintenance Facility has a flow monthly average limit of 0.0288 MGD. From 2011 through
May 2015, the average flow was 0.0062 MGD and the maximum flow was 0.012 MGD. In 2011 permit
renewal, pH limits were removed with the rationale that the groundwater had naturally occurring low pH
and the French Broad River offered a huge dilution factor. This facility had two instances where pH
values were slightly lower than 6.0 S.U., once in 2012 and once in 2013. Since pH is a water quality
standard of NCAC 2B .0200 and the facility had instances of low effluent pH, the pH limitations of "not
less than 6.0 or higher than 9.0 S.U." were put in the permit.
EPA 624/ 625 monitoring is not due to the chloride salts, but rather because there is an inactive county
landfill adjacent to the DOT facility. Monitoring wells on the DOT site detected contamination from the
landfill migrating towards the area where groundwater pumping is taking place. Vinyl chloride, benzene,
tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene, and xylenes have been detected by the monitoring wells, but
reportable levels have not been detected in the GWR effluent. The Permittee shall notice that the test
results for EPA Methods 624/625 are required to include parameters listed in the permit effluent page
under Footnote 4. The list is as follows: 2,4-Dinitrophenol, 2-Chloroethylvinyl ether, 3,3-
Dichlorobenzidine, 4,6-Dinitro-2-methylphenol, 4-Nitrophenol, Acrolein, Acrylonitrile, Benzidine,
Hexachlorocyclopentadine, Pentachlorophenol, Toluene, Bis (2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate, Ethylbenzene,
and Xylenes.
Quarterly sampling utilizing EPA Methods 624/625 for chemical monitoring has identified two hits:
10/9/2012, Bis (2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate, 18.6 ug/L; 7/8/2014, Ethylbenzene, 2.4 ug/L. All other samples
were below reporting levels.
The Division was informed by the permittee that currently only #2 recovery well pump is working and
the rest three recovery well pumps are in need of repair or replacement. The permittee stated that the
project to fix nonfunctioning pumps is being prepared.
Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA):
The Division conducted EPA recommended analyses to determine the reasonable potential for toxicants
to be discharged by this facility, based on DMR data from January 2011 through April 2015.
Reasonable potential analyses were conducted for chloride, bis (2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate, and
ethylbenzene.
• Chloride — effluent data showed no potential to violate water quality standards and the
maximum predicted concentration was less than 50% of the allowable allocations. Considering
chloride is the main parameter of concern in this permit, chloride monitoring will be maintained
in NPDES permit.
• Bis (2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate — effluent data showed no potential to violate water quality
standards and the maximum predicted concentration was less than 50% of the allowable
allocations. Monitoring for bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate shall continue as part of EPA Method
624/625 monitoring.
• Ethylbenzene = effluent data showed no potential to violate water quality standards and the
maximum predicted concentration was less than 50% of the allowable allocations. Monitoring
for ethylbenzene shall continue as part of EPA Method 624/625 monitoring.
INSTREAM MONITORING:
Not in current permit. Not requested for renewal permit.

NPDES Permit #NC0085979
Permit Renewal
North Carolina Department of Transportation
Rosman Maintenance Facility
Transylvania County
Project Summary
In 1992, Mr. Paul Harris complained of salt in his residential supply well. His well is located
approximately 350 feet north of the former salt storage bin in the Maintenance facility. The
Division of Water Quality determined that his well contained chloride at concentrations
exceeding twice those allowed by the NCAC 2L Standards. The source of the chloride
contamination was later confirmed to be the old salt bin. A new salt storage dome was
constructed near the back of the DOT facility, procedures for improved handling of salt were
implemented and the old salt bin was no longer used to store salt.
From 1992 until June 1998, a series of monitor wells were installed and periodically sampled to
track the migration of the chloride plume. In general, the concentrations peaked in mid-1995
before beginning a slight decrease. Meanwhile the plume threatens other supply wells in the
neighborhood. In 1996, the Asheville Regional Office suggested that contaminated groundwater
could be discharged directly into the French Broad River without treatment.
In 1996, S&ME prepared and submitted a NPDES permit application for discharging
contaminated groundwater into the French Broad River. Permit #NC0085979, effective April 1,
1997, was issued for the discharge of up to 86,400 gallons per day of effluent.
In 1998, Aquaterra Engineering installed the recovery system, which began operation in June
1998. The system consisted of 3 recovery wells, a shed containing a control panel and flow
meters, and a 4-inch diameter discharge line that extends to the river along SR 1129. A fourth
recovery well was installed in an area of the plume with lower chlorides levels in efforts to
minimize chloride concentrations in the effluent in attempt to pass the acute toxicity
requirements of the permit. Since the installation of this well, there have been no problems
remaining in compliance with the permit.
In the seventeen years the system has been in operation, it's pumped over 17 million gallons of
chloride contaminated groundwater and discharged it into the French Broad River.
Alternatives for Surface Water Discharge
When the contamination problem was first discovered, the first option explored to meet the
requirements of Groundwater Section was to extend the city water supply lines from Rosman.
The City of Rosman and Transylvania County were trying to get Federal funds to extend the
water line to the area just east of the DOT known as Calvert. If the supply wells within 1,500
feet of the chloride plume were replaced by city water, DOT would not have to discharge
contaminated groundwater. After several years, Federal funds could not be attained and the plan
for expansion of city water was cancelled.

Another option was to install a pump and treatment system to remediate groundwater. Ideally, a
100% efficient system would remove all of the chloride, which would result in the discharge of
clean water and the production of solid salt that would be returned to our salt storage bin. Even
the most efficient systems (75 to 90% efficient) would still produce a concentrated solution that
would have to be disposed of. A system like this would cost $100,000 to $200,000, but the
disposal cost of the 10 to 25% concentrate makes the project unfeasible. Without having an
ocean to discharge into or an industry such as a pickle factory nearby, disposal costs could run
into the millions of dollars per year. There are larger treatment systems (de-salinization plants)
that are 100% efficient used for municipal water supplies. However, these systems cost in the
millions of dollars.
Subsurface discharge was another option that is used in fuel remediation projects. However, a
treatment system that produces a concentrated solution would be needed and the same problem
of disposal costs must be considered. It would be difficult/expensive to have -a treatment system
that would remove enough chloride to return the water to naturally occurring conditions.
The next option was install a groundwater recovery system and haul all of the discharge to the
nearest acceptable location. Again, the distance to the nearest disposal point makes this
impractical.
The Asheville Regional Office suggested the answer to the problem. The ARO asked the DOT
to consider discharging water directly into the French Broad River, which is a little over 1 mile
away from the DOT facility. Since there is a significant drop in elevation from the DOT facility
to the river, effluent would flow by gravity to the river without the use of expensive pumping
stations. A DOT contractor designed and installed the system for about $106,000.
Summary of Analytical Results
In accordance with the existing permit, the DOT has been sampling the effluent every month. In
January, April, July and October, the sample is analyzed for chlorides, total dissolved solids,
volatile organics by Method 624, semi volatile organics by Method 625, and acute toxicity. For
the months in between, the sample is analyzed for chlorides only. The samples have been being
collected by James & James Environmental and analyzed by Pace Analytical in Asheville and
reported to the Division of Water Quality.
In the past year, all acute toxicity tests have passed and there have been no organic compounds
observed by methods 624 or 625 during the quarterly sampling. The highest concentration for
chlorides was observed on August 28, 2014, with a concentration of 737ppm.
Sludge Management
The recovery system does not generate any sludge. There are no sediment traps, oil water
separators or holding tanks to accumulate solids. Turbidity tests have been conducted in the
pasts with levels being minimal at most (turbidity testing is no longer required per email
conversations between Eric Motzno and Jim McKay on Thursday November 10, 2011). The
chlorides being recovered are in solution and not exposed to any evaporative or filtering process.
