Subject: Draft NPDES Permit Renewal
Permit NC0021873
Town of Mayodan WWTP
Rockingham County
Class III and IV Facility
SIC Code 4952
Dear Mr. Brandt:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the Draft NPDES permit renewal for your facility. Please
review this draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the requirements and conditions it
contains. There are several changes from the existing permit, including the following:
• Upstream and effluent total hardness quarterly monitoring has been added to the permit for
all flow tiers (2.5, 3.0 and 4.5 MGD) as required by the implementation guidance for the
new dissolved metal standards [See A. (1.), A. (2.) and A. (3.)].
• Based on Reasonable Potential Analysis(RPA)results,monitoring for total silver and total
copper has been removed from the permit for all flow tiers [See A. (1.),A. (2.)and A. (3.)].
• Monitoring for total chromium at flow tier of 2.5 MGD has been removed from the permit
based on RPA results [See A. (1.)].
• Effluent limitations=and'monitoring for total chromium at flow tiers of 3.0 and 4.5 MGD
have been removed from the permit based on RPA results [See A. (2.) and A. (3.)].
• Monitoring for total lead at flow tier of 4.5 MGD has been added to the permit based on
the RPA results [See A. (3.)].
• Effluent mercury data was reviewed from April 2014 to December 2017. In accordance
with the 2012 Mercury TMDL NPDES Guidance the permittee needs to show annual
average effluent concentrations below the Water Quality Based Effluent Limitation
(WQBEL) and the individual mercury sample result below the Technology Based Effluent
Limitation (TBEL). A review of the data showed that both criteria were met for all flow
tiers; therefore, mercury limitations and monitoring have been removed from the permit
[See A. (1.), A. (2.) and A. (3.)].
• Based on Mercury TMDL evaluation, permittee shall continue implementing Mercury
Minimization Plan(MMP)during this permit term.A progress report discussing the results

of the MMP implementation shall be submitted next permit renewal application [See A.
(6.)].
• Instream monitoring requirements have been added to Effluent Limitations and Monitoring
Requirements footnotes [See A. (1.), A. (2.) and A. (3.)] and Special condition A. (7.)
mstream monitoring requirements has been removed from the permit.
• Some of the wording has changed in Special Condition A. (4.), Chronic Toxicity Permit
Limit,please review each paragraph carefully.
• Special Condition A. (5.) has been modified to include the specific three years in which
the effluent Pollutant Scan shall be performed (2019, 2020, 2021). In addition, at the end
of the Special Condition, 2nd species Toxicity Testing Requirements for municipal permit
renewals per Federal Regulations [40 CFR 122.21(j)(5)] have been added.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports
(DMRs) and program reports. The requirement to continue 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. (7.)].
• Parameter characteristic codes have been added to the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring
Requirements [ See A. (1.), A. (2.) and A. (3.)].
• Regulatory citations have been added to the permit.
Concurrent with this notification the Division is publishing a notice in a newspaper having
circulation in the general Rockingham County area, soliciting public comments on this draft
permit. Please provide any written comments you may have to the following: NCDEQ/DWR,
NPDES Permitting Branch, 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,NC 27699-1617 no later than 30

mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 5% at 2.5 MGD flow regime, 6% at 3.0
MGD flow regime and 9% at 4.5 MGD flow regime.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in
the"North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure,"Revised December 2010, or
subsequent versions or"North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure"
(Revised- December 2010) or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of
March,June, September and December. 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.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV
below the permit limit, then multiple-concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum,in
each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole
Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised-December 2010) or subsequent versions.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent
Discharge Monitoring Form(MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter
code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWR Form AT-
3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources

days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all
concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate
signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if
chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is
required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity(AT)test
form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report
with the notation of"No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the
Water Sciences Section at the address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required,monitoring
will be required during the following month. Assessment of toxicity compliance is based on the toxicity
testing quarter, which is the three month time interval that begins on the first day of the month in which
toxicity testing is required by this permit and continues until the final day of the third month.

Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division
of Water Resources indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit maybe 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,minimum control organism reproduction, 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.

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. See"How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
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.

monitoring data and reports, when applicable:
• Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
• Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
• Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.

Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below).
2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1)(9), the permittee must identify the initial recipient at the time
of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the EPA's website resources to identify the

(EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES program) that is the designated entity
for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic reporting tool for
each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions on how to access and use the
appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as well. Information on EPA's NPDES
Electronic Reporting Rule is found at: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/10/22/2015-

• 3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The Permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To obtain an
electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic reporting waiver request to
the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting waivers 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 submitting monitoring data and reports. The duration of a temporary
waiver shall not exceed 5 years and shall thereupon expire. At such time,monitoring data and reports
shall be submitted electronically to the Division unless the permittee re-applies for and is granted a
new temporary electronic reporting waiver by the Division. Approved electronic reporting waivers
are not transferrable. Only permittees with an approved reporting waiver request may submit
monitoring data and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the approved reporting
waiver request is effective.
Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver are found on
the following web page:
http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr

Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as described in Part II,

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
