Summary of Findings /Comments
1. Permit:
Your NPDES Individual Wastewater permit became effective July 1, 2009 and expired on
March 31, 2012. The facility is not currently under a Special Order by Consent.
The facility was compliant with the NPDES permit wastewater requirements reviewed the day
of the inspection. The application for permit renewal was received on October 10, 2011 as
required. A recent update to the application has also been submitted The new permit has vet
to be re -issued by the Division of Water Resources, therefore, this inspection was conducted
based on NPDES wastewater dischargepermit issued July 1, 2009 as these requirements
remain in effect until the new permit is issued.
2. Compliance Schedules:
The permit does not have any outstanding compliance schedules for this facility.
3. Facility Site Review:
The overall condition of the plant site was satisfactory. The appearance of the facility was in
satisfactory condition indicating the current housekeeping practices are good.
4. Records/Reports:
a) A review of the daily monitoring data submitted during the previous 12 -month period
and a review of the permit conditions indicates the facility was in compliance with the
permit requirements and/or limitations.
The acdiby was issued no penalty assessments and no notices of violation for the 12 -
month period
The wastewater reports data, bench sheets, and operator logs, for the months of
December 2013 and June 2014 were reviewed. The Flow data was provided on June 2,
but the BIMS DMR system flag edema frequency violation due to 7 consecutive dans
without a flow reading. This frequency violation can be corrected by forwarding an
amended June 2014 DMR with a Flow/No Flow reading as applicable between June 3
and June 9, for Outfall 006.
3 1 P a g e
The facility has provided the groundwater monitoring results as required by the
Groundwater Monitoring Plan gated March 17 2011. Monitoring wells BG -1 CW -2
CW -2D, CW -3, and CW -3D were inspected. All wells were observed to be locked with
well tags and caps present Monitoring wells were found to be in good condition Two
of the wells had loose fitting well caps which were corrected at the time of the
inspection
The records for the Biological Monitoring Plan reside with the Environmental Sciences
Section (DWR ESS
The records for the Ash Pond Liam Integrity Inspections and the NPDES Stormwater
permitting and compliance now reside with the Division of EnerQ,y Mines and Land
Resources tNC DEMLR) and were not part of this inspection However, safety
improvements were observed ar the Ash Pond Filter dike with the addition of new
stairs and access road improvements The Ash Pond filter dike discharge flows to the
internal NPDES Dischar e Outfall 002
An Operation and Maintenance Plan and Emergency Response Plan for the bioreactor
is required General Electric is the consultant/supplier of the Bioreactor operations
and maintenance and an Emergency Response Plan for the Roxboro Plant is inclusive
of Bioreactor operations
b) The facility must designate a certified Operator -in -Responsible -Charge (ORC) having
a certification level equal to or greater than the facility classification. A Back-up ORC
must also be designated with a minimum certification level at least one level less than
the facility classification.
The facility is currently in cor.iphance with these requirements The Operator in
Responsible Charge (ORC) is Eric D Satterwhite He holds a PC -1 (Cert No 996750)
and Wastewater III (Cert 989354) The permittee has several certified operators
designated as Back-up Operators (BORC's)

5. Self -Monitoring Program:
You are reminded that your monitoring samples must be collected, preserved, and analyzed by
appropriate procedures and methods. You should maintain records of the sampler temperature,
and a certified laboratory must calibrate the sample thermometers annually.
Your operator is reminded that he/she must keep a logbook of all operation/maintenance
activities undertaken at the facility. The logbook should include all daily process control
activities including any field measurements conducted for process control. A visitation log for
the facility must also be maintained.
The acility is currently in compliance with these requirements.
6. Laboratory:
For all analytical data submitted for compliance monitoring purposes, a certified laboratory
must be utilized for all laboratory analysis. Additionally, if field parameter testing is
conducted, an operator certified to perform the specified field parameter analysis is also
required. The operator needs to be sure to calibrate all meters/instrumentation before each use
and retain all calibration records.
The facility is currently in compliance with these requirements and utilizes Pace NC
Certified Labs (different analytes are sent to different Pace locations- Raleigh
Asheville....) The facility holds a current NC DWO Laboratory Field Parameter
Certification 95080 for pH and temperature measurements.
The Regional Field Inspectors checklist (to be forwarded to the DWO Laboratory
Certification Program) was completed the day of the inspection and reflects the extent of
laboratory items investigated� by Regional inspectors. Lab inspections are also performed
separately by the Lab Certification Program. The Regional lab checklist results are
attached.
7. Flow Measurement:
If the permit requires a flow measurement device for determining the effluent flow, the
flow measurement device must be calibrated annually.
This facility is required to monitor and report plant pump log readings/intake flow for
Outfall 003 and effluent flow for Outfall 002 (flowmeter), Outfall 010 (pump log ow
meter), Outfall 009 (pump log - flows to Ash Pond 002), Outfall 006 (estimate/sta gua e),
and Ou all 008 (pump log -flows to Ash Pond 002. The facdity was in compliance with
flow measurement requirements the day of the inspection.
8. Effluent/Receiving Waters:
The effluent discharge should be clear with a continuous flow with no visible changes to
the receiving waters.
The effluent discharge was clear and flow was continuous. The receiving waters looked
clear with no visible changes from the effluent discharge
5 1 P a g e
9. Pretreatment:
This facility currently has no prerreatment permit and does not accept or discharge
domestic or industrial waste to a sanitary sewer system. Pre-treatment permits are
required, if applicable, by your NPDES Discharge Permit.
10. Solids Handling/Disposal:
The facility must dispose of solids by an acceptable method such as a landfill or utilize the
services of an approved solids hauling and disposal contractor, which requires the facility
to be included under the contractor's non -discharge permit (i.e. land application). The
facility is reminded to maintain adequate records (i.e. shipment dates, quantities, etc.) of
any solids hauling and/or disposal activities.
The facility utilizes the Roxboro Steam Electric Plant Industrial Waste Landfill permitted
by NC Division of Waste Management SWP#73-02. The facility was in compliance with
these requirements the day of the inspection.
12. Compliance Sampling:
No compliance sampling was conducted the day of this inspection.
13. Operations & Maintenance:
The facility was in compliance with these requirements the da
y of the inspection
1) A recommendation was made to tighten well caps.
2) A recommendation was made to forward an Amended DMR for June 2014.
3) A recommendation was made to evaluate and consider the useful lie of the aging 1984
Domestic Wastewater Treatment package plant and ability to maintain dated
parts/structure into the future. The environmental risk would be an 1) un -anticipated
bypass of untreated/partially treated wastewater to the immediate plant area 2) the cost
of a pump and haul solution in the event ofplant failure, as the packagge plant is one
trane/no back-up.
