Based on total permitted SIU flow of 0.24 MGD. Page 1 of 20 NC0020591 Briefly describe the proposed permitting action and facility background: The City of Statesville has applied for NPDES permit renewal, and submitted a renewal application dated 2/29/2024, received by the Division on 3/5/2024. The cover letter included a system component list, which has been copied to update the permit's supplement to cover sheet. Review of the application found it incomplete, with the three Effluent Pollutant Scans, four 2nd species toxicity test reports, Sludge Management Plan, Chemical Addendum, and Mercury Minimization Plan summary report missing. The missing information was received by request on 4/16/2024 and 4/24/2024. Effluent pollutant scans were sampled in April 2021, July 2022 and July 2023; the second species toxicity tests were sampled in January, February, April and July 2023. This facility serves a population of —22,775 residents in the City of Statesville (-21,360) and the Town of Troutman (-1400). The City operates a pretreatment program with a long-term monitoring plan (LTMP) for both Fourth Creek WWTP and Third Creek WWTP (NC0020591); Third Creek receives industrial waste from five (5) Significant Industrial User (SIUs), including three (3) Categorical Industrial Users (CIUs). Inflow & Infiltration (I&I). The City reported on its NPDES permit renewal application an average daily volume of 0.015 MGD I&I, and efforts to minimize I&I include the City's water / sewer department's continuing to repair broken lines. Sludge Management Plan. Biosolids are disposed of through Class B land application by Synagro via Permit WQ0016247, and through the Statesville Class A permit WQ0006245. 2.

A value of 142 µg/L reported on 10/3/2022 was removed from the dataset as it identified as an outlier not supported by duplicate samples which averaged 5.0 µg/L in the corresponding DMR comments. The maximum annual average daily flow was 1.10 MGD or 18.3% of the permitted flow in 2020. 4. Instream Data Summary Instream monitoring may be required in certain situations, for example: 1) to verify model predictions when model results for instream DO are within 1 mg/l of instream standard at full permitted flow; 2) to verify model predictions for outfall diffuser; 3) to provide data for future TMDL; 4) based on other instream concerns. Instream monitoring may be conducted by the Permittee, and there are also Monitoring Coalitions established in several basins that conduct instream sampling for the Permittee (in which case instream monitoring is waived in the permit as long as coalition membership is maintained). Is this facility a member of a Monitoring Coalition with waived instream monitoring (YIN): YES. Name of Monitoring Coalition: Yadkin Pee Dee River Basin Association (YPDRBA). If applicable, summarize any instream data and what instream monitoring will be proposed for this permit action: The current permit requires instream monitoring for�DO, Temperature, Conductivity, and Total Hardness. Instream locations are as follows: • Upstream (U) _ —100 ft above the outfall; • Downstream 1 (D1) _ —2 miles below the outfall at NCSR 2359 (Bethesda Rd); • Downstream 2 (D2) _ —3.5 miles below the outfall at NCSR 2362 (Triplett Rd). Instream monitoring is provisionally waived in light of the Permittee's participation in the Yadkin Pee Dee River Basin Association (YPDRBA, monitoring coalition). Hardness monitoring (upstream only) is performed by the Permittee and is used in calculating allowable concentrations for certain dissolved metals that are hardness -dependent (see Section 6.4. — Reasonable Potential Analysis below). Data were available for review from nearby YPDRBA stations, including: Q3900000, located —2.7 miles upstream the outfall at SR 2342 (Amity Hill Road) near Statesville; and Q3932000, located at D1. Data from the two stations were obtained from the Division's monitoring coalition database. Data spanning January 2019 through December 2023 were reviewed and checked against applicable stream standards as well as for effluent impacts, the latter via statistical testing of downstream averages against the upstream average of each parameter using t-test with the level of significance (p-value) set at 0.05. The data are summarized in Tables 2 and 3 and discussed below. Page 4 of 20 NCO020591 Table 2. Instream Data Summary: averages with ranges in parentheses. *Significantly different from Upstream. Parameter, units Upstream Downstream Standard (Q3900000) (Q3932000) DO, mg/L Avg = 8.9 Avg = 8.6 DA = 5.0 (4.7 — 20.5) (5.1— 1 L8) 4.0 (instantaneous) Temperature, °C Avg = 16.7 Avg = 16.6 32.0 (3.0 — 26.9) (3.0 — 26.1) Conductivity, µmhos/cm NA (50g 203) (56 — 166) Fecal Coliform, cfu/100 mL Geomean = 622 Geomean = 707 (154 — 9000) (118 — 8000) Dissolved Oxygen (DO) — DO is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. Summer minima at the downstream stations was above the stream standard of 5.0 mg/L daily average but the upstream was below it; both stations' minima were above the instantaneous minimum standard of 4.0 mg/L. No statistically significant difference was found between the upstream and downstream stations. The facility is meeting its effluent DO limits consistently and thus doesn't appear to be impacting the receiving stream. Temperature — Temperature is in the permit as a parameter of concern for aquatic life. Summer maxima at both stations were below the 32°C standard for lower piedmont and coastal plain waters. Since the data were not collected synchronously between stations, up- to downstream increases could not be assessed. No statistically significant differences were found between the upstream and downstream stations. Concurrent effluent temperatures appear higher on average, with substantially higher winter minima. However, this does not appear to be impacting the receiving stream. Conductivity — Conductivity is in the permit as an indicator of industrial sources. The City has an active pretreatment program with five SIUs. Specific Conductance was monitored instream, a parameter related to Conductivity, but at 25°C. A statistically significant difference was found between the upstream and downstream stations with downstream average reporting higher. Concurrent effluent average Conductivity is about three times higher than downstream on average, thus appearing to affect the instream specific conductance. Fecal Coliform — Fecal Coliform was removed from the permit in 2019 based on review of the data at the time which appeared similar between stations and that the receiving stream is neither a Class B water body nor impaired for Fecal Coliform. The 2022 Integrated Report assessed the receiving stream as Data Inconclusive based on Fecal Coliform data, which may be exceeding the instream standard of a geometric mean of 200/100 mL based on at least 5 samples collected over a 30-day period or 400/100 mL in more than 20% samples collected during such period (15A NCAC 02B .0211). Instream data are collected by YPDRBA once a month, and upon review, both upstream and downstream geometric means are > 400/100 mL, with over 90% of samples being > 200/100 mL and over 50% of samples > 400/100 mL (Table 4), suggesting a high likelihood that the stream is impaired if sufficient sampling were conducted. Log - transformed Fecal Coliform data were tested to find no significant difference between stations. The Yadkin - Pee Dee River Basin 2022 Report documents an increasing trend of Fecal Coliform exceedances both over time from 2017 — 2019 and in space from above the discharge downstream to the confluence with Fourth Creek. The report cites potential sources to include a couple minor NPDES package plants (discharging 100% domestic waste at < 1 MGD) and several biosolids land application and wastewater irrigation fields in addition to the Third Creek WWTP, as well as a permitted cattle AFO (animal feeding operation) Page 5 of 20 NC0020591 upstream of the upstream station. Based on the likelihood that the receiving stream is impaired, instream monitoring for Fecal Coliform has been added to the permit. Table 3. Instream Fecal Coliform levels from 2019 - 2022 (n = 58 samples at each site). in Upstream Downstream # samples > 200/100 mL 54 (96%) 55 (98%) # samples > 400/100 mL 34 (59%) 40 (69%) In addition to the above permit -required parameters, the YPDR 3A also monitored for Ammonia, pH, Inorganic Nitrogen (NO2+NO3), Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN), Phosphorus and Turbidity. Their data were reviewed as above and summarized below. Table 4. Additional Instream Parameter Data Summary: averages with ranges in parentheses. *Statistically significantly different from Upstream. Parameter, units Upstream Downstream Standard Ammonia, mg/L Avg=0.11 Avg=0.12 NA (< 0.02 - 0.43) (< 0.02 - 0.58) pH, SU Avg = 6.7 Avg = 6.9* 6.0 - 9.0 (4.8 - 7.8) (5.8 - 7.4) Inorganic Nitrogen, mg/L Avg = 0.77 Avg = 0.79 NA (0.38 - 1.05) (0.50 - 1.06) TKN, mg/L Avg = 0.56 Avg = 0.60 NA (< 0.20 - 1.15) (0.24 - 1.30) Total Phosphorus, mg/L Avg - 0.07 Avg = 0.15*(< NA 0.02 - 0.27) (< 0.02 - 0.39) Turbidity, NTU Avg = 28.0 Avg = 29.5 50 (8.3 - 170) (3.0 -170) Review of the above additional parameters found significant increases in downstream pH and Total Phosphorus. Since all pH data were within the water quality standard range, instream monitoring for this parameter is not considered to be needed in the permit. Because of nutrient issues of High Rock Lake and the increases found downstream of the outfall, instream monitoring for TKN, NO2+NO3 and Total Phosphorus will be added to the permit at monthly frequency. No significant differences were found between upstream and downstream Turbidity, and maxima were above the 50 NTU standard at each location. The receiving stream has a Turbidity TMDL, which is discussed in Section 6.7 below. 5. Compliance Summary Summarize the compliance record with permit effluent limits (past 5 years): From August 2019 through July 2024 the facility had reported one monthly average Ammonia exceedance in May 2021, resulting in an enforcement case. Page 6 of 20 NC0020591 Summarize the compliance record with aquatic toxicity test limits and any second species test results (past 5 years): The facility passed 24 of 26 quarterly chronic toxicity tests (including two test failures and six subsequent passes), as well as all four second species chronic toxicity tests, sampled on 1/23//2023, 2/13/2023, 4/17/2023 and 7/17/2023. Summarize the results from the most recent compliance inspection: The most recent facility inspection, conducted on 3/9/2023, reported that overall the facility appeared to be properly maintained and operated. No compliance issues were reported. The most recent pretreatment inspection was conducted on 1/25/2024, finding the pretreatment program to be properly implemented. 6. Water Quality -Based Effluent Limitations (WQBELs) 6.1. Dilution and Mixin Zones ones In accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0206, the following streamflows are used for dilution considerations for development of WQBELs: 1 Q 10 streamflow (acute Aquatic Life); 7Q 10 streamflow (chronic Aquatic Life; non -carcinogen HH); 30Q2 streamflow (aesthetics); annual average flow (carcinogen, HH). If applicable, describe any other dilution factors considered (e.g., based on CORMIX model results): NA. If applicable, describe any mixing zones established in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B.0204(b): NA. 6.2. Oxygen -Consuming Waste Limitations Limitations for oxygen -consuming waste (e.g., BOD) are generally based on water quality modeling to ensure protection of the instream dissolved oxygen (DO) water quality standard. Secondary TBEL limits (e.g., BOD = 30 mg/L for Municipals) may be appropriate if deemed more stringent based on dilution and model results. Ifpermit limits are more stringent than TBELs, describe how limits were developed: Limitations for BOD are based on speculative limits determined via a Level B model for a proposed 9.0 MGD flow expansion in November 2005. No changes are proposed. 6.3. Ammonia and Total Residual Chlorine Limitations Limitations for ammonia are based on protection of aquatic life utilizing ammonia chronic criteria of 1.0 mg/L (summer) and 1.8 mg/L (winter). Acute ammonia limits are derived from chronic criteria, utilizing a multiplication factor of 3 for Municipals and a multiplication factor of 5 for Non -Municipals. Limitations for Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) are based on the NC water quality standard for protection of aquatic life (17 µg/L) and capped at 28 µg/L (acute impacts). Due to analytical issues, all TRC values reported below 50 µg/L are considered compliant with their permit limit. Describe any proposed changes to ammonia and/or TRC limits for this permit renewal: The current Ammonia limits for the 6.0 MGD flow tier were placed in the permit in a modification in 2012 based on Instream Waste Concentration (IWC)-based calculations for the protection against ammonia toxicity. The current Ammonia limits for the 8.0 MGD flow tier were placed in the permit in 2011 based on speculative limits for a proposed expansion to 9.0 MGD. Allowable concentrations were calculated at 8.0 MGD, but found to be slightly less stringent than the speculative limits; the 9.0 MGD speculative limits were placed in the permit at 8.0 MGD in 2012. Ammonia and TRC have been reviewed in the attached Wasteload Allocation (WLA) sheet. The IWC- based calculations were performed using the 7Q 10 streamflows of 13.2 cfs summer and 17.0 cfs winter at Page 7 of 20 NC0020591 the 6.0 and 8.0 MGD flow tiers. At both flow tiers the TRC limit is capped at 28 µg/L and will be maintained in the permit. The calculations yielded the same Ammonia results as previously run for the current permit at 6.0 MGD; thus the current Ammonia limits will be maintained. 6.4. Reasonable Potential Analysis RPA) for Toxicants If applicable, conduct RPA analysis and complete information below. The need for toxicant limits is based upon a demonstration of reasonable potential to exceed water quality standards (RP), a statistical evaluation that is conducted during every permit renewal utilizing the most recent effluent data for each outfall. The RPA is conducted in accordance with 40 CFR 122.44 (d) (i). The NC RPA procedure utilizes the following: 1) 95% Confidence Level/95% Probability; 2) assumption of zero background; 3) use of/z detection limit for "less than" values; and 4) streamflows used for dilution consideration based on 15A NCAC 2B.0206. Effective April 6, 2016, NC began implementation of dissolved metals criteria in the RPA process in accordance with guidance titled NPDES Implementation of Instream Dissolved Metals Standards, dated June 10, 2016. The current permit requires effluent and upstream hardness monitoring for use in the RPA. Effluent Hardness data were obtained via DMR; instream Hardness was not monitored based on a misunderstanding of the monitoring coalition waiver in that the monitoring coalition does not monitor for Hardness. Five upstream samples were requested on 4/19/2024; results were received on 5/9/2024. They averaged 11.48 mg/L, below the default value of 25 mg/L; the default value was used in the RPA. An RPA was conducted on effluent toxicant data collected between February 2020 and July 2024 at 6.0 and 8.0 MGD flow tiers for the following parameters: arsenic, cadmium, total chromium, copper, cyanide, lead, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, silver, and zinc. Pollutants of concern included toxicants with positive detections and associated water quality standards/criteria. Based on this analysis, the following permitting actions are proposed for this permit: • Effluent Limit with Monitoring. The following parameters will receive a water quality -based effluent limit (WQBEL) since they demonstrated a reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria (RP): o At 6.0 MGD: ■ Total Copper: MA = 19.1 µg/L; DM = 22.8 µg/L ■ Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate: MA = 2.6 µg/L o At 8.0 MGD: 14 ■ Total Copper MA = 16.3 µg/L; DM = 19.7 µg/L ■ Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate: MA = 2.0 µg/L • Monitoring Only. The following parameters will receive a monitor -only requirement since they did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria, but the maximum predicted concentration was > 50% of the allowable concentration: None at either flow tier. • No Limit or Monitoring: The following parameters will not receive a limit or monitoring, since they did not demonstrate reasonable potential to exceed applicable water quality standards/criteria and the maximum predicted concentration was < 50% of the allowable concentration: o At 6.0 MGD: Arsenic, Beryllium, Total Phenolic Compounds, Total Cadmium, Total Chromium, Cyanide, Total Lead, Molybdenum, Total Nickel, Total Selenium, Total Silver and Total Zinc. o At 8.0 MGD: Beryllium, Total Phenolic Compounds, Total Cadmium, Total Chromium, Cyanide, Total Lead, Molybdenum, Total Nickel, Total Selenium, Total Silver, and Total Zinc. • POTW Effluent Pollutant Scan Review: Three effluent pollutant scans (April 2021, July 2022 and July 2023) were evaluated for additional pollutants of concern. The following parameters were detected in the scans and evaluated: Chloroform, Dichlorobromomethane, Toluene. Page 8 of 20 NC0020591 o The following parameter(s) will receive a water quality -based effluent limit (WQBEL) with monitoring, since as part of a limited data set, two samples exceeded the allowable discharge concentration: None at both flow tiers. o The following parameter(s) will receive a monitor -only requirement, since as part of a limited data set, one sample exceeded the allowable discharge concentration: None at both flow tiers. o At both flow tiers the following metals were reported as non -detect at higher than recommended PQLs, resulting in RP: Parameter Results, µg/L Frequency Recommended PQL,µgm Total Cadmium < 2 3 of 22 samples 0.5 Total Lead < 10 4 of 22 samples 2 Total Selenium < 10 5 of 22 samples 1 Total Silver < 5 3 of 22 samples 1 Recommended PQLs have been added to the Effluent Pollutant Scan analyte list for Cadmium, Lead, Selenium and Silver. If applicable, attach a spreadsheet of the RPA results as well as a copy of the Dissolved Metals Implementation Fact Sheet for freshwater/saltwater to this Fact Sheet. Include a printout of the RPA Dissolved to Total Metal Calculator sheet if this is a Municipality with a Pretreatment Program. 6.5. Toxicity Testing Limitations Permit limits and monitoring requirements for Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) have been established in accordance with Division guidance (per WET Memo, 8/2/1999). Per WET guidance, all NPDES permits issued to Major facilities or any facility discharging "complex" wastewater (contains anything other than domestic waste) will contain appropriate WET limits and monitoring requirements, with several exceptions. The State has received prior EPA approval to use an Alternative WET Test Procedure in NPDES permits, using single concentration screening tests, with multiple dilution follow-up upon a test failure. Describe proposed toxicity test requirement: This is a Major POTW with a chronic WET limit of 41% at 6.0 MGD flow and 48% at 8.0 MGD flow, monitored quarterly. No changes are proposed. 6.6. Mercury Statewide TMDL Evaluation There is a statewide TMDL for mercury approved by EPA in 2012. The TMDL target was to comply with EPA's mercury fish tissue criteria (0.3 mg/kg) for human health protection. The TMDL established a wasteload allocation for point sources of 37 kg/year (81 lb/year), and is applicable to municipals and industrial facilities with known mercury discharges. Given the small contribution of mercury from point sources (-2% of total load), the TMDL emphasizes mercury minimization plans (MMPs) for point source control. Municipal facilities > 2 MGD and discharging quantifiable levels of mercury (> 1 ng/L) will receive an MMP requirement. Industrials are evaluated on a case -by -case basis, depending if mercury is a pollutant of concern. Effluent limits may also be added if annual average effluent concentrations exceed the WQBEL value (based on the NC WQS of 12 ng/L) and/or if any individual value exceeds a TBEL value of 47 ng/L. The current permit has a MMP special condition with the requirements to develop an MMP and submit a summary of actions toward mercury minimization with the permit application. An MMP, dated 3/7/2023, was provided by the Permittee upon request for the summary report; this report was received on 5/6/2024. Page 9 of 20 NCO020591 Describe proposed permit actions based on mercury evaluation: Since no annual average mercury concentration exceeded the WQBEL at either flow tier, and no individual mercury sample exceeded the TBEL (Table 5), no mercury limit is required. Since the facility is > 2 MGD and has reported quantifiable levels of mercury (> 1 ng/L), the Mercury Minimization Plan (MMP) requirement is maintained in the permit. Table 5. Mercury Effluent Data Summary 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 # of Samples 6 5 6 6 2 Annual Average Cone. ng/L 2.9 1.4 1.3 1.8 1.3 Maximum Conc., ng/L 4.58 2.49 2.55 4.00 2 TBEL, ng/L 47 WQBEL, ng/L 9.30 at 6.0 MGD N 24.77 at 8.0 MGD 6.7. Other TMDL/Nutrient Management Strategy Considerations If applicable, describe any other TMDLs/Nutrient Management Strategies and their implementation within this permit: The facility lies in a section of Third Creek upstream of a section impaired for Turbidity that received a TMDL for this parameter in 2011. According to the TMDL, Permittees that discharge directly to, or upstream of the impairment, yet still downstream of an unimpaired ambient monitoring site are subject to the TMDL. Third Creek WWTP lies upstream of Ambient Monitoring Station Q3932000, which is at the upstream boundary of the impairment, and therefore is subject to the TMDL. However, calculated TSS loads at the permitted maximum of 30 mg/L resulted in an insignificant contribution of 0.4542 tons/day or 3.4% of the total TSS load at Ambient Monitoring Station Q3934500 at the downstream end of the impairment. As a result, no reduction in TSS is required for Third Creek WWTP per the Turbidity TMDL, and therefore no permit changes were made for this parameter. Review of effluent data over the past 4.5 years (August 2019 — February 2024) revealed an average of 5.3 mg/L TSS, which is well below the permitted maximum (Table 1). The current permit contains tiered nutrient limitations at 6.0 MGD Phase I and II with the latter phase limits carried over to 8.0 MGD upon expansion (Table 4). These limits were set in light of a potential nutrient strategy or TMDL for High Rock Lake, which is impaired for Chlorophyll -a, pH and Turbidity. Chlorophyll -a and pH impairments are associated with algal blooms that are caused by excessive nutrient loadings to the lake. The facility is a potential source of nutrients to High Rock Lake as the receiving stream flows to High Rock Lake via the Yadkin River. Weekly effluent Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorous monitoring have been in the permit since 2001 to aid in the development of a High Rock Lake nutrient management strategy, and nutrient loading limits were placed in the permit in 2011 (Table 4). Table 4. Nutrient Loading limits and compliance schedule under current permit. Design Flow Total Nitrogen Loading (lb/yr) Total Phosphorus Loading (lb/yr) Phase Compliance Date 6.0 MGD Phase I - Interim 182,650 36,530 October 1, 2016 6.0 MGD Phase II - Final 76,321 15,768 October 1, 2027 8.0 MGD 76,321 15,768 --- Page 10 of 20 NC0020591 The final annual nutrient load limits (for 6.0 MGD Phase II and 8.0 MGD) were calculated in 2009 from average monthly loads calculated from data collected in 2006-2008. Average monthly flow for that period was 1.3 MGD; average effluent nutrient concentrations were 19.1 mg/L TN and 4.0 mg/L TP. The resulting average daily loads (209.1 lb/mo TN and 43.2 lb/mo TP) were then multiplied by 365 days/yr for the final annual load limits in Table 4. Final Annual Load Limit = avg MGD X avg nutrient conc./day X 8.34 X 365 day/yr The interim load limits (for 6.0 MGD Phase I) were calculated using half of the average nutrient concentrations noted above (i.e., 10.0 mg/L TN and 2.0 mg/L TP) for a permit modification in 2012. Interim Annual Load Limit = 6.0 MGD X (half of avg nutrient conc./day) X 8.34 X 365 day/yr The facility had completed Phase I upgrade to 6.0 MGD as described in the Engineer's Certification dated October 29, 2015. Since that time, three years of data had accumulated for nutrient loading, averaging 12,211 lbs/yr TP load and 17,591 lbs/yr TN load. Although these loadings met the above limits, the facility had expressed concerns about meeting the limits per the current permit compliance schedule for 6.0 MGD Phase II and requested a permit modification via correspondence to DWR in May -December 2014 to extend the 6.0 MGD Phase II Compliance Date to October 1, 2026. A second letter from the Permittee, dated April 19, 2018, requested further extension to October 1, 2029, citing the slowed development of the High Rock Lake nutrient TMDL/management strategy. A discussion was held on June 7, 2018 and an extended compliance date was agreed for October 1, 2027 to encompass one permit cycle plus 1.5 years to accommodate facility upgrade efforts to meet the more stringent nutrient limits at the permitted flows. The agreed -upon extended compliance date was added to the permit in 2019. Annual effluent nutrient loadings from 2019 — 2023 are found to be meeting the 6.0 MGD Phase II limits (Table 1 above). No changes to the nutrient loading limits or compliance schedule were made to the permit. To reduce redundancy in the permit limits, the 6.0 MGD Phase I and Phase 11 effluent requirement sheets were combined into a single 6.0 MGD sheet with Phase I and II nutrient load limits. The current permit has a special condition [A.(7.)] with formulae to calculate monthly nutrient mass load, which is maintained as A.(6.). Similarly, the nutrient load compliance schedule is maintained as A.(7.). The current permit has a special condition [A.(9.)] describing a nutrient reopener to adjust the permit should the High Rock Lake TMDL or nutrient management strategy be implemented before the facility expands to 6.0 MGD Phase II. The Division is working with the North Carolina Nutrient Criteria Development Plan Scientific Advisory Council to develop criteria for TN, TP or related parameters. The nutrient reopener was modified in 2019 to include nutrient criteria along with nutrient TMDL and/or management strategy options to be developed. As this condition is redundant with language in the previous condition, the re -opener condition is removed from the permit. To better understand the total nitrogen in the effluent, weekly monitoring for Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) and Nitrate -Nitrite (NO3+NO2) has been added to the permit. In addition, monthly instream monitoring for nutrients (TN, TKN, NO3+NO2 and TP) has been added to the permit with the waiver for participation in the Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin Association monitoring coalition to be consistent with other instream monitoring requirements. 6.8. Other WQBEL Considerations If applicable, describe any other parameters of concern evaluated for WQBELs: In the Chemical Addendum, the facility reported only 1,4-Dioxane as expected due to their receiving industrial waste from metal finishers, but they did not sample their effluent for this chemical. The receiving stream lies —45 miles from the nearest downstream water supply watershed boundary for the Tuckerman Reservoir (a.k.a. High Page 11 of 20 NC0020591 Rock Lake) in the Yadkin River. To assess the actual levels of 1,4-Dioxane in the effluent, a quarterly monitoring requirement has been added to the permit with the option for the Permittee to request re- evaluation of 24 months of data for possible monitoring reduction to annually. In addition, a permit re - opener special condition was added to the permit. Due to the pervasiveness of PFAS chemicals in the environment, the presence of a downstream water supply and the facility's receiving industrial waste from three metal finishers and two textiles, both categories recognized by the EPA as potential PFAS sources, quarterly PFAS monitoring will be required in the permit along with pretreatment requirements as recommended by EPA guidance (memo: 12/5/2022). See Section 10 Monitoring Requirements below for details. If applicable, describe any special actions (HQW or ORW) this receiving stream and classification shall comply with in order to protect the designated waterbody: NA. If applicable, describe any compliance schedules proposed for this permit renewal in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H0107(c)(2)(B), 40CFR 122.47, and EPA May 2007 Memo: The current permit has a three-year compliance schedule for Copper and Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate limits at the 6.0 MGD flow tier, with the compliance date set for February 1, 2023. Since this date has passed, the compliance schedule has been removed from the permit. No other compliance schedule is proposed. If applicable, describe any water quality standards variances proposed in accordance with NCGS 143- 215.3(e) and 15A NCAC 2B.0226 for this permit renewal: NA. 7. Technology -Based Effluent Limitations (TBELs) Municipals (if not applicable, delete and skip to Industrials) Are concentration limits in the permit at least as stringent as secondary treatment requirements (30 mg1L BOD51TSS for Monthly Average, and 45 mg/L for BOD51TSS for Weekly Average). YES. If NO, provide a justification for alternative limitations (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA. Are 85% removal requirements for BOD51TSS included in the permit? YES. Review of the influent and effluent data for both parameters found 9 occurrences of < 85% BOD removal and 20 occurrences of < 85% TSS removal. Several of these occurrences involve low influent BOD/TSS concentrations but also relatively high effluent concentrations. If NO, provide a justification (e.g., waste stabilization pond). NA. 8. Antidegradation Review (New/Expanding Discharge) The objective of an antidegradation review is to ensure that a new or increased pollutant loading will not degrade water quality. Permitting actions for new or expanding discharges require an antidegradation review in accordance with 15A NCAC 213.0201. Each applicant for a new/expanding NPDES permit must document an effort to consider non -discharge alternatives per 15A NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2). In all cases, existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing use is maintained and protected. If applicable, describe the results of the antidegradation review, including the Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) and any water quality modeling results: NA. Page 12 of 20 NC0020591 9. Antibacksliding Review: Sections 402(o)(2) and 303(d)(4) of the CWA and federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.44(1) prohibit backsliding of effluent limitations in NPDES permits. These provisions require effluent limitations in a reissued permit to be as stringent as those in the previous permit, with some exceptions where limitations may be relaxed (e.g., based on new information, increases in production may warrant less stringent TBEL limits, or WQBELs may be less stringent based on updated RPA or dilution). Are any effluent limitations less stringent than previous permit (YES/NO): No. If YES, confirm that antibacksliding provisions are not violated: The above change is based on evaluation of updated effluent copper and hardness data. 10. Monitoring Requirements Monitoring frequencies for NPDES permitting are established in accordance with the following regulations and guidance: 1) State Regulation for Surface Water Monitoring, 15A NCAC 213.0500; 2) NPDES Guidance, Monitoring Frequency for Toxic Substances (7/15/2010 Memo); 3) NPDES Guidance, Reduced Monitoring Frequencies for Facilities with Superior Compliance (10/22/2012 Memo); 4) Best Professional Judgement (BPJ). Per US EPA (Interim Guidance, 1996), monitoring requirements are not considered effluent limitations under Section 402(o) of the Clean Water Act, and therefore anti -backsliding prohibitions would not be triggered by reductions in monitoring frequencies. To identify PFAS concentrations in waters classified as Water Supply (WS) waters, monitoring requirements are to be implemented in NPDES permits with pretreatment programs that discharge to WS waters. Since the WWTP's outfall is —45 miles upstream of the nearest water supply boundary and as the WWTP receives wastewater from industries recognized as potential sources of PFAS via a pretreatment program, monitoring of PFAS chemicals has been added to the permit. Currently, EPA Method 1633 is finalized (as of January 31, 2024) but not yet published in the Federal Register as an approved test method. Upon evaluation of laboratory availability and capability to perform the analytical method, it was determined that the sampling may be conducted using the 3rd draft method or more recent version of Method 1633. Influent and effluent quarterly monitoring have been added to the permit with analysis using the method until Method 1633 becomes approved via publication in the Federal Register. Sampling using the method shall take effect the first full calendar quarter following 6 months after the effective date of the permit to provide the City time to select a laboratory, develop a contract, and begin collecting samples. Data shall submit data to the Division via a spreadsheet provided by the Division. Effective 6 months after the final Method 1633 is published in the Federal Register as part of 40 CFR 136, the City shall conduct influent and effluent monitoring using the approved method and submit data via eDMR. In addition to monitoring at the WWTP, the City shall identify and monitor SIUs suspected of discharging PFAS compounds [see A.(8.)(c.)(i.)] within 6 months of the permit effective date. The City shall update their Industrial Waste Survey (IWS) to identify indirect dischargers of PFAS contributing to concentrations experienced at the Third Creek WWTP. A summary of information learned during this process will be provided as part of the 2024 Pretreatment Annual Report (PAR). Within 6 months of completion of the IWS, the City shall begin sampling of indirect dischargers identified as potential PFAS sources at a quarterly frequency. For a detailed outline of the specific PFAS requirements, see Special Condition A.(10.) PFAS Monitoring Requirements. Page 13 of 20 NC0020591 As the Third Creek WWTP accepts influent wastewater from industrial facilities that are potential sources of 1,4-Dioxane via the approved pretreatment program, and as the discharge lies upstream of a WS water, monthly effluent monitoring for 1,4-Dioxane as well as a 1,4-Dioxane reopener condition have been added to the permit. After a 24-month sampling period, the Permittee may request the Division conduct a review of submitted data for assessment and approval of a 1,4-Dioxane monitoring frequency reduction from monthly to quarterly. For instream monitoring, refer to Section 4. 11. Electronic Reporting Requirements The US EPA NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was finalized on December 21, 2015. Effective December 21, 2016, NPDES regulated facilities are required to submit Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) electronically. Effective December 21, 2020, NPDES regulated facilities will be required to submit additional NPDES reports electronically. This permit contains the requirements for electronic reporting, consistent with Federal requirements. 12.

Permit No. NC0020591 NPDES Implementation of Instream Dissolved Metals Standards - Freshwater Standards The NC 2007-2015 Water Quality Standard (WQS) Triennial Review was approved by the NC Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US EPA subsequently approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016, with some exceptions. Therefore, metal limits in draft permits out to public notice after April 6, 2016 must be calculated to protect the new standards - as approved. Table 1.

However, application of the dissolved and hardness -dependent standards requires additional consideration in order to establish the numeric standard for each metal of concern of each individual discharge. The hardness -based standards require some knowledge of the effluent and instream (upstream) hardness and so must be calculated case -by -case for each discharge. Metals limits must be expressed as `total recoverable' metals in accordance with 40 CFR 122.45(c). The discharge -specific standards must be converted to the equivalent total values for use in the RPA calculations. We will generally rely on default translator values developed for each metal (more on that below), but it is also possible to consider case -specific translators developed in accordance with established methodology. RPA Permitting Guidance/WQBELs for Hardness -Dependent Metals - Freshwater The RPA is designed to predict the maximum likely effluent concentrations for each metal of concern, based on recent effluent data, and calculate the allowable effluent concentrations, based on applicable standards and the critical low -flow values for the receiving stream. If the maximum predicted value is greater than the maximum allowed value (chronic or acute), the discharge has reasonable potential to exceed the standard, which warrants a permit limit in most cases. If monitoring for a particular pollutant indicates that the pollutant is not present (i.e. consistently below detection level), then the Division may remove the monitoring requirement in the reissued permit. To perform a RPA on the Freshwater hardness -dependent metals the Permit Writer compiles the following information: • Critical low flow of the receiving stream, 7Q 10 (the spreadsheet automatically calculates the 1 Q 10 using the formula 1 Q 10 = 0.843 (s7Q 10, cfs) 0.993 • Effluent hardness and upstream hardness, site -specific data is preferred • Permitted flow • Receiving stream classification 2. In order to establish the numeric standard for each hardness -dependent metal of concern and for each individual discharge, the Permit Writer must first determine what effluent and instream (upstream) hardness values to use in the equations. The permit writer reviews DMR's, Effluent Pollutant Scans, and Toxicity Test results for any hardness data and contacts the Permittee to see if any additional data is available for instream hardness values, upstream of the discharge. If no hardness data is available, the permit writer may choose to do an initial evaluation using a default hardness of 25 mg/L (CaCO3 or (Ca + Mg)). Minimum and maximum limits on the hardness value used for water quality calculations are 25 mg/L and 400 mg/L, respectively. If the use of a default hardness value results in a hardness -dependent metal showing reasonable potential, the permit writer contacts the Permittee and requests 5 site -specific effluent and upstream hardness samples over a period of one week. The RPA is rerun using the new data. Page 2 of 4 Permit No. NCO020591 The overall hardness value used in the water quality calculations is calculated as follows: Combined Hardness (chronic) _ (Permitted Flow, cfs *Avg. Effluent Hardness, mg/L) + (s7Q 10, cfs *Avg. Upstream Hardness, mg/L) (Permitted Flow, cfs + s7Q 10, cfs) The Combined Hardness for acute is the same but the calculation uses the IQ 10 flow. 3. The permit writer converts the numeric standard for each metal of concern to a total recoverable metal, using the EPA Default Partition Coefficients (DPCs) or site -specific translators, if any have been developed using federally approved methodology. EPA default partition coefficients or the "Fraction Dissolved" converts the value for dissolved metal at laboratory conditions to total recoverable metal at in -stream ambient conditions. This factor is calculated using the linear partition coefficients found in The Metals Translator: Guidance for Calculating a Total Recoverable Permit Limit from a Dissolved Criterion (EPA 823-B-96-007, June 1996) and the equation: Cdiss = 1 Ctotal 1 + { [Kpo] [ss(I+a)] [10-6] } Where: ss = in -stream suspended solids concentration [mg/1], minimum of 10 mg/L used, and Kpo and a = constants that express the equilibrium relationship between dissolved and adsorbed forms of metals. A list of constants used for each hardness -dependent metal can also be found in the RPA program under a sheet labeled DPCs. 4. The numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the default partition coefficient (or site -specific translator) to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions. In some cases, where an EPA default partition coefficient translator does not exist (ie. silver), the dissolved numeric standard for each metal of concern is divided by the EPA conversion factor to obtain a Total Recoverable Metal at ambient conditions. This method presumes that the metal is dissolved to the same extent as it was during EPA's criteria development for metals. For more information on conversion factors see the June, 1996 EPA Translator Guidance Document. 5. The RPA spreadsheet uses a mass balance equation to determine the total allowable concentration (permit limits) for each pollutant using the following equation: Ca = (s7Q 10 + Qw) (Cwgs)-(s7Q10) (Cb) Qw Where: Ca = allowable effluent concentration (µg/L or mg/L) Cwqs = NC Water Quality Standard or federal criteria (µg/L or mg/L) Cb = background concentration: assume zero for all toxicants except NH3* (µg/L or mg/L) Qw = permitted effluent flow (cfs, match s7Q 10) s7Q 10 = summer low flow used to protect aquatic life from chronic toxicity and human health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from noncarcinogens (cfs) * Discussions are on -going with EPA on how best to address background concentrations Flows other than s7Q 10 may be incorporated as applicable: IQ 10 = used in the equation to protect aquatic life from acute toxicity Page 3 of 4 Permit No. NC0020591 QA = used in the equation to protect human health through the consumption of water, fish, and shellfish from carcinogens 30Q2 = used in the equation to protect aesthetic quality 6. The permit writer enters the most recent 2-3 years of effluent data for each pollutant of concern. Data entered must have been taken within four and one-half years prior to the date of the permit application (40 CFR 122.21). The RPA spreadsheet estimates the 95th percentile upper concentration of each pollutant. The Predicted Max concentrations are compared to the Total allowable concentrations to determine if a permit limit is necessary. If the predicted max exceeds the acute or chronic Total allowable concentrations, the discharge is considered to show reasonable potential to violate the water quality standard, and a permit limit (Total allowable concentration) is included in the permit in accordance with the U.S. EPA Technical Support Document for Water Quality -Based Toxics Control published in 1991. 7. When appropriate, permit writers develop facility specific compliance schedules in accordance with the EPA Headquarters Memo dated May 10, 2007 from James Hanlon to Alexis Strauss on 40 CFR 122.47 Compliance Schedule Requirements. The Total Chromium NC WQS was removed and replaced with trivalent chromium and hexavalent chromium Water Quality Standards. As a cost savings measure, total chromium data results may be used as a conservative surrogate in cases where there are no analytical results based on chromium III or VI. In these cases, the projected maximum concentration (95th %) for total chromium will be compared against water quality standards for chromium III and chromium VI. 9. Effluent hardness sampling and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the discharge, are inserted into all permits with facilities monitoring for hardness -dependent metals to ensure the accuracy of the permit limits and to build a more robust hardness dataset. 10.

The TMDL responds to a statewide fish consumption advisory for mercury. The TMDL calls for a 67% reduction in mercury levels from the year 2002 baseline mercury loading. The ultimate goal of the TMDL is to ensure safe - levels of mercury in fish throughout North Carolina for human consumption. As explained in the TMDL, 98 percent of mercury in North Carolina waters comes from atmospheric sources — the vast majority of which are located outside of the State. Under the Clean Water Act, atmospheric deposition of mercury into surface waters is regarded as a nonpoint source. Minor amounts of mercury are discharged directly into surface waters by industrial and municipal point sources as a group. Specifically, the TMDL determined that point sources contribute less than two (2) percent of the annual mercury loadings to State waters. The TMDL allocates two percent of the statewide allowable loadings collectively to the point source sector. This does not mean that an individual discharger may not have significant levels of mercury in its discharge in terms of local water quality considerations. While we expect such instances to be rare based upon the Department's review of statewide mercury data, dischargers with higher mercury loadings will be expected to implement more aggressive mercury controls. Notably, unlike any other source, local governments actually reduce mercury loadings in the environment by first filtering mercury out in the treatment of public drinking water (particularly where the source of raw drinking water is surface water) and then a second time when wastewater is treated. In order to implement the two percent point source sector waste load allocation, the Department has developed a point source permitting strategy which is located at http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water- resources/planning/modeling-assessment/special-studies/mercury-tmdl. The Environmental Management Commission has approved both the TMDL and the Permitting Strategy. The permitting strategy calls for certain point sources to develop and implement mercury minimization plans (MMPs). For POTWs, an MMP will be required if the facility has (1) a permitted design capacity of more than two million gallons per day and (2) mercury at quantifiable levels in their effluent. MMPs feature best management practices and have been implemented successfully in numerous states around the country. The attached document is the City of Statesville's MMP. Typically, MMPs focus on pretreatment controls — a local government's interaction with non -domestic users of its sewer system as well as outreach to the public at large regarding the proper use and disposal of household products containing mercury. The MMP approach is intended as a reasonable, low-cost approach toward making some progress toward managing the two percent loading statewide from point sources. Mercury treatment and even testing is very expensive and does not make sense to reduce a small part of the already insignificant two percent overall point source annual loading to State waters. 3/6/2019 MODEL MUNICIPAL MERCURY MINIMIZATION PLAN March 7, 2023 SECTION I - PURPOSE The purpose of this Mercury Minimization Plan ("MMP") is to describe best management practices through which the City of Statesville will seek to reduce the amount of mercury discharged into its system and, ultimately, to the environment. The MMP compiles mercury reduction -related efforts to -date and potential future action items. It is designed to be a working document to help guide Third Creek WWTP in its efforts to control mercury loadings discharged into its Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) by users of the sewer system. Such a reduction in loadings to the sewer system should translate to a reduction in the amount of mercury which is discharged from the treatment plant. The management practices summarized below may also help control some of the mercury reaching our storm sewer system as well. SECTION II — FACILITY DESCRIPTION The City of Statesville operates a publicly owned treatment works (POTW); including a collection system and wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) that serves Statesville, North Carolina. The 3rd Creek WWTP utilizes a conventional activated sludge process that primarily treats domestic waste water generated from residential areas within the city. The raw sewage enters the WWTP via 48" gravity main and then into an 80,000-gallon wet well at the Main Pump Station. There, the flow enters one of two perforated panel type bar screens. One of four main pumps rated at 5 MGD pumps the raw sewage to a grit separator. At this point the raw sewage is mixed with return activated sludge and distributed into two Oxidation basins with a capacity of 3 MG each. This mixed liquor gravity flows through a 6,200-gallon flow splitter box. The mixed liquor flows into two secondary clarifiers with a capacity of 2.3 million gallons each. At this point, the RAS flows into a wet well with a capacity of 42,000 gallons and pumped back into the flow distribution box. The effluent gravity flows from the secondary clarifiers to the two chlorine contact basins with a capacity of 125,000 gallons each. The final effluent is treated with Sodium Bisulfite for de -chlorination as it flows into an 80,000-gallon post aeration basin. From here, it is a gravity flow to Third Creek. The average flow for this facility is 1.0 MGD. Most municipal treatment plants are not designed to remove mercury and it is exceedingly expensive to do so to very low levels. Incidental mercury removal occurs through typical municipal treatment with trace levels of mercury (and other metals) ending up in solids removed from the raw wastewater. Mercury is not used in the treatment processes at the WWTP. Mercury may be introduced into the sewer system through a variety of sources, such as from industrial users, laboratories, and other businesses. Residual deposits of mercury are also possible in the sewer system from historic practices. Finally, trace 3/6/2019 amounts from household products and atmospheric deposition (both wet and dry) contribute to sewer system mercury loadings. While there is typically some mercury contributed to public sewer systems statewide, it is usually in minute quantities and comprises a tiny portion of the already insignificant statewide loading for all point sources - just two percent of the annual mercury loadings to all State waters. 3/6/2019 SECTION III — PROGRAM PLAN A. EVALUATION OF POTENTIAL NON -DOMESTIC SOURCES CONTRIBUTING MERCURY TO THE POTW Within 24 months from the NPDES required 180-day period for development of an MMP, the City of Statesville will evaluate available information to assess the potential for non -domestic users of the sewer system to contribute mercury to the system. The information to be reviewed may include: (1) POTW influent and effluent mercury data and trends; (2) industrial user permits and associated mercury monitoring data; (3) Toxics Release Inventory (TRI); (4) state hazardous site registry and the National Priority List relating to mercury contamination; and (5) historical records of industrial sites which have contributed mercury loadings to the sewer system. The City of Statesville will also survey and evaluate the following common sources of mercury in its service area: (1) dentist offices; (2) hospitals; (3) laboratories; (4) auto recyclers; and (5) other potential sources of mercury based on existing information. The City of Statesville will request that industrial users review mercury concentrations in high -volume process chemicals and demonstrate that the mercury concentrations are below industry average. The City of Statesville will request that alternative sources for chemicals be explored if the mercury levels are determined to be significantly higher than would normally be expected. The evaluation of potential non -domestic sources of mercury to the sewer system will be updated every five years, as warranted by prior sampling results and any additional new potentially significant sources to the system. B. ADDITIONAL CONTROL MEASURES This MMP identifies reasonable and cost-effective control measures to minimize mercury being discharged into the POTW. Below is a listing of initial BMPs for this POTW. Pollution Prevention Substances used at the WWTP will be evaluated to determine if they contain mercury or mercury -based compounds. Any such chemicals will be evaluated for substitution with non -mercury -containing substances. Housekeeping, Spill Control and Collection, and Education The City of Statesville will develop procedures to minimize the possibility of any spill or release at the WWTP involving mercury containing substances. The City of Statesville will add mercury identification and proper disposal to ongoing and future operator training procedures. Public Outreach 4 3/6/2019 The City of Statesville will make available educational information regarding sources of household mercury and appropriate use/disposal practices. This information may be posted on the City of Statesville's website. The availability of this information will be highlighted in July, 2019 outreach to City of Statesville's customers. The City of Statesville will also facilitate public awareness regarding community collection points for mercury -containing products from residents/customers for proper disposal. Periodic reminders of such collection programs will be provided as part of the City of Statesville's ongoing public outreach. Laboratory Practice The City of Statesville operates a laboratory for purposes of complying with state and federal monitoring and sampling requirements. The laboratory is a potential source of small quantities of mercury - containing compounds. Laboratory employees will be trained in the proper handling and disposal of these materials. The laboratories have also replaced mercury thermometers with non -mercury thermometers, whenever practical. C. TRACKING AND MONITORING In order to assess the implementation of the control measures, the City of Statesville proposes to undertake the following evaluations beginning after the first full year that this MMP is implemented: 1. Survey annually at least ten percent (10%) of any non -domestic users identified as possible significant sources of mercury to the POTW; 2. Track the implementation of the programs outlined above; 3. Monitor influent mercury at least annually. Require significant non -domestic sources of mercury to monitor periodically, as warranted; and 4. Measure effluent mercury as required by the NPDES permit. These efforts will allow the City of Statesville to establish a baseline of influent and effluent mercury levels to assist in identifying any trends in mercury contributions from domestic and non -domestic users of the sewer system. This baseline will be tracked annually. SECTION IV — IMPLEMENTATION OF CONTROL MEASURES The City of Statesville disposes of Mercury filled laboratory thermometers by using a Bio-Hazard bag and properly disposing of this waste using a chemical disposal company specializing in this type of waste. The City of Statesville uses this same type of company to pick up small electrical components that contain mercury for proper disposal. The City of Statesville will implement the control measures summarized in Section III over the permit term and will update this MMP as warranted. 3/6/2019 SECTION V - REPORTING A summary of the MMP activities will be submitted as part of the NPDES permit renewal process. 3/6/2019 10/2/24 WQS = 12 ng/L MERCURY WQBEL/TBEL EVALUATION V:2013-6 Facility Name Statesville - Third Creek WWTP / NC0026441 No Limit Required /Permit No. MMP Required Total Mercury 1631E PQL = 0.5 ng/L 7Q10s = 13.200 cfs WQBEL = 29.03 ng/L Date Modifier Data Entry Value Permitted Flow = 6.000 47 ng/L 3/9/20 3.01 3.01 6/8/20 3.11 3.11 8/18/20 < 0.2 0.5 8/20/20 4.58 4.58 9/14/20 4.28 4.28 12/7/20 1.92 1.92 2.9 ng/L - Annual Average for 2020 3/10/21 2.2 2.2 4/14/21 < 0.2 0.5 6/7/21 2.49 2.49 9/7/21 < 1 0.5 12/6/21 1.15 1.15 1.4 ng/L - Annual Average for 2021 3/7/22 < 1 0.5 6/6/22 1.03 1.03 7/11/22 2.55 2.55 7/12/22 < 2 1 9/19/22 2.13 2.13 12/5/22 < 1 0.5 1.3 ng/L - Annual Average for 2022 3/13/23 < 1 0.5 6/19/23 3.19 3.19 7/17/23 < 0.2 0.5 7/18/23 4 4 9/11/23 1.42 1.42 12/11/23 1.03 1.03 1.8 ng/L - Annual Average for 2023 3/11/24 2.1 2.1 6/10/24 < 1 0.5 1.3 ng/L - Annual Average for 2024
