Supplemental Information
Mooresboro Effluent Permit Renewal Application
Permit NC0089109
This renewal permit application is submitted timely for renewal of the effluent discharge permit
for the AZR Mooresboro,NC facility (Permit Number NC0089109).
Information provided in this permit renewal application reflects effluent discharge monitoring
data provided in monthly discharge monitoring reports(DMRs) submitted to the Department
ovet the past 24 months. This information reflects the nature of effluent discharge water based
on current operations.
A summary of historic effluent information is provided below, and data from Monthly DMR's
for the past 24 months is provided on the attached Tables and Figures.
Discharge Volume
In January 2016, the facility curtailed zinc production, and the associated effluent discharge rate
over the past 24 months has fluctuated, averaging 192,842 gallons on a daily average basis,
which is approximately 2.34 million gallons/month total discharge(Table 1). The current
permitted average discharge volume is 800,000 gallons/day.
Intermittent flow has occurred at an average of around 12 days per month over the past 24
months. It is anticipated that operations at the current level will continue while process design
and operation changes are considered over the forthcoming 12— 18 months. The average daily
effluent flow of 800,000 gallons should be maintained in the renewed permit.
Constituent Discharge Concentration and Mass
Information on DMR's submitted to the Department over the past 24 months indicates that
permit limits were not exceeded for any parameters. There was one chronic toxicity test,
occurring in January 2016, which failed. A test was conducted the following month which was
shown to pass. All other tests passed for chronic toxicity.
Information from DMR's, including monthly average concentrations for constituents having
chronic discharge limits, and monthly effluent flow information is provided on Table 1.
Constituents noted on Table 1 have a sampling frequency of 2/Month.
Information from DMR's, including daily maximum concentrations for constituents with acute
discharge limits is provided on Table 2.
Table 3 includes monthly average and daily maximum concentrations for constituents without
limits and that were monitored on a quarterly or monthly frequency, except for pH which is
monitored daily and has a limit of 6—9 standard units,chronic toxicity which is pass/fail, and
turbidity having a contribution limit to the stream of 50 NTU.
r .
Table 4 provides information on various constituents as to the anticipated average concentration
in effluent discharge water.
Cadmium
Cadmium discharge is limited in the current permit to 0.270 Mg/L(ppm). At an average
discharge rate of 800,000 gallons/day, based on this concentration limit 54.83 pounds/month
of cadmium can be discharged within limits to the Broad River in effluent water, provided the
daily average concentration for the month does not exceed 0.270 ppm, and the maximum daily
concentration does not exceed 1.66 ppm(Table 1).
Over the past 24 months, the average monthly cadmium concentration was 0.0802 ppm. This
concentration is well below the permit limit for cadmium at 0.270 ppm. At the current average
daily effluent discharge rate of 192,842 gallons/day, an average of 1.62 pounds/month of
cadmium was discharged over the past 24 months. This amount of cadmium is well below the
mass at the chronic permit limit described above,at 54.83 pounds/month.
The Maximum Effluent Concentration Limit was calculated using the Departments Reasonable
Potential Analysis(RPA)worksheet. Based on stream characteristics for the Broad River, an
average of 800,000 gallons/day discharge rate, a water hardness of 2,500 ppm, and using 0.100
ppm for the anticipated cadmium concentration,the calculated maximum effluent concentration
for chronic toxicity is 0.121 ppm. This limit is conservative considering it is based on the
permitted discharge rate (800,000 gallons/day average)as opposed to the actual discharge rate
(192,000 gallons/day average),which is much lower. Additionally, a higher anticipated
cadmium concentration of 0.100 ppm was used in the calculation,which is 25%higher than the
average cadmium concentration in effluent water over the past 24 months of 0.0802 ppm.
Finally,flow is intermittent, averaging 12 days/month,which consequently reduces the
likelihood of the calculated limit for the average monthly concentration being exceeded.
Based on the calculated Maximum Effluent Concentration Limit, at an average of 800,000
gallons/day discharge volume the mass of cadmium that could be discharged within the
calculated limit is 25 pounds/month. The current monthly average discharge rate of 1.62
pounds/month is well below the calculated limit on a mass basis.
Table 2 provides information on maximum cadmium concentrations in effluent flow over the
past 24 months, the current acute toxicity permit limit, and the calculated maximum acute
toxicity permit limit using the RPA. Using the maximum discharge concentrations over the past
24 months,the average of maximum monthly cadmium concentrations was 0.1453 ppm, and the
maximum of all daily cadmium concentrations recorded is 0.260 ppm. These concentrations are
both well below the 1.66 ppm limit in the current permit, and is below the daily maximum
(acute)limit of 0.63 ppm for cadmium calculated using the RPA.
2
Lead
Lead discharge is limited in the current permit to 3.37 ppm. At an average discharge rate of
800,000 gallons/day, based on this concentration limit 684.32 pounds/month of lead can be
discharged within limits to the Broad River in effluent water,provided the daily average
concentration for the month does not exceed 3.37 ppm, and the maximum daily concentration
does not exceed 3.75 ppm (Table 1).
Over the past 24 months, the average monthly lead concentration was 0.0072 ppm. This
concentration is well below the permit limit for lead at 3.37 ppm. At the current average daily
effluent discharge rate of 192,842 gallons/day,an average of 0.23 pounds/month of lead was
discharged over the past 24 months. This amount of lead is well below the mass at the chronic
permit limit described above, at 684.32 pounds/month.
The Maximum Effluent Concentration Limit was calculated using the Departments RPA
worksheet. Based on stream characteristics for the Broad River, an average of 800,000 gallons/
day discharge rate, a water hardness of 2,500 ppm,and using 0.500 ppm for the anticipated lead
concentration,the calculated maximum effluent concentration for chronic toxicity is 0.737 ppm.
This limit is conservative considering it is based on the permitted discharge rate (800,000 gallons
/day average)as opposed to the actual discharge rate(192,000 gallons/day average),which is
much lower. Additionally, a higher anticipated lead concentration of 0.500 ppm was used in the
calculation,which is significantly higher than the average lead concentration in effluent water
over the past 24 months of 0.0072 ppm. Finally, flow is intermittent, averaging 12 days/month,
which reduces the likelihood of the calculated limit for the average monthly concentration being
exceeded
Based on the calculated Maximum Effluent Concentration Limit, at an average of 800,000
gallons/day discharge volume the mass of lead that could be discharged within the calculated
limit is 150 pounds/month. The current monthly average discharge rate of 0 23 pounds/month
is well below the calculated limit on a mass basis.
Table 2 provides information on maximum lead concentrations in effluent flow over the past 24
months,the current acute toxicity permit limit, and the calculated maximum acute toxicity permit
limit using the RPA. Using the maximum discharge concentrations over the past 24 months,the
average of maximum monthly lead concentrations was 0.0096 ppm, and the maximum of all
daily lead concentrations recorded is 0.174 ppm. These concentrations are both well below the
3.75 ppm limit in the current permit, and is below the daily maximum (acute) limit of 17.07 ppm
for lead calculated using the RPA.
Summary
Figure 1 and Figure 2 summarize recent mass discharge levels for cadmium and lead,including
the mass discharge on an average monthly basis over the past 24 months, and mass limits for the
current permit limit and the anticipated limit based on the RPA,respectively. As shown on these
figures, under the current operating conditions and based on information over the past 24
{
3
months,cadmium and lead discharges on a monthly mass basis are well below the calculated
RPA maximum chronic and acute toxicity limit values for effluent discharge to the Broad River.
AZR is submitting this renewal application for renewal of the effluent discharge permit based on
effluent information contained in the DMR's submitted over the past 24 months. Anticipated
constituents and concentrations are provided in Table 4. Effluent water hardness determined
over the past 24 months of approximately 2,500 should be used for RPA calculations. The
current permit discharge volume should be maintained on an average daily discharge of 800,000
gallons/day.
