generated from the facilities listed in Condition II. 3. a. for the uses listed in Condition Il. 3. b. and all
individually -permitted ash use sites, as stipulated in Condition IV. 1. a. The ash distribution program
shall be operated such that no discharge of waste to surface waters occurs; pursuant to the permit renewal
application package received on March 1, 2002; and in conformity with the project plan, specifications,
and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of Environment and
Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2011; shall void Permit
No. WQ0000452, issued on December 31, 1997; and shall be subject to the following specified
conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. Within 30 calendar days of this permit's issuance, the Permittee shall submit a letter, signed
by a principal executive officer of at least the level of vice president with the Permittee, that
specifically delegates the new signing official/responsible part for the purpose of this
permit's reissuance and subsequent compliance. (i.e., Mr. Michael A. Ruhe, Manager —
Environmental, Health, & Safety). Two copies of the requested information shall be
submitted to the NCDENR-DWQ, Aquifer Protection Section, Land Application Unit, c/o
LAU Residuals Program Coordinator, 1636 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1636.
2. The ash distribution program shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -discharge
system to prevent the discharge of any wastes to waters of the state resulting from the
operation of this facility or program.

This permit shall become voidable in the event of failure of the ash distribution program to
adequately protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and
groundwater.
4. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Pennittee of the responsibility for damages to
surface water or groundwater resulting from the operation of this ash distribution program.
In the event that the ash distribution program is not operated satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take any immediate corrective actions as
may be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
6. Ash that demonstrates the potential for leaching pollutants, as evidenced by the exceedance
of any of the leachate concentrations of concern contained in Condition 111. 3., shall be
distributed for use in manufactured products only. The Permittee may distribute such ash for
other uses only if the Permittee minimizes the potential release of pollutants to the
environment or demonstrates the ability to meet the applicable surface water quality
standards or groundwater quality standards at the compliance boundary at the site of use. To
achieve this performance standard, the Permittee shall use, but shall not be limited to, one or
a combination of the following engineered solutions: the use of liners and/or caps, chemical
stabilization of the ash, and modeling to prove that quality standards will not be contravened.
Verification that this performance standard has been met shall be provided to the Division
upon request.
II, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The ash distribution program shall be properly operated and maintained at all times.
2. Upon classification of the ash distribution program by the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification! Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall employ a certified
