Subject: Permit No. WQ0037287
Pluris Hampstead WWTP
High -Rate Infiltration System
Pender County
In accordance with your permit minor modification request received February 11, 2016, and
subsequent additional information received August 22, 2016, November 18, 2016 and January 18, 2017,
we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0037287 dated April 13, 2017, to Pluris Hampstead, LLC for
the continued operation of the subject wastewater treatment and high -rate infiltration facilities.
The modifications to the subject permit are as follows:
➢ Because the level spreader and outlet structure associated with the groundwater lowering
system effluent storage pond have been removed from the system design, PPI 003 has been
removed from Attachment A and the flow monitoring requirement has been removed from PPI
002.
➢ Additionally, the groundwater flow meter has also been removed from the facility description
on Page 1 of this new (modified) permit as it is no longer needed and has also been removed
from the system design.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until March 31, 2020, shall void Permit No.
WQ0037287 issued April 29, 2015, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified
therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring requirements listed in Attachments A, B and C
for they may differ from the previous permit issuance. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required operational information shall result in future compliance problems.
Please note the following permit conditions have been removed since the last permit issuance
dated April 29,2015:
➢ Old Condition I.I. — This condition has been removed because the NPDES Permit No.
NCO089524 was issued October 9, 2015.
➢ Old Condition 1.2. — This condition has been removed because the recorded setback waiver was
received January 18, 2017.

L SCHEDULES
I. No later than six months prior to the expiration of this permit, the Permittee shall request renewal of
this permit on official Division forms. Upon receipt of the request, the Division will review the
adequacy of the facilities described therein, and if warranted, will renew the permit for such period of
time and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem appropriate. Please note Rule 15A
NCAC 02T .0105(d) requires an updated site map to be submitted with the permit renewal application.
LISA NCAC 02T .0105(d), 02T.0106, 02T.0109, 02T.01 15(c)]
2. If the subject wastewater treatment or infiltration facilities are in noncompliance with the terms and

to the initiation of these connection activities, appropriate Division approval shall be received. [15A
NCAC 02H .0404(e)]
II. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The subject non -discharge facilities shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times so there is
no discharge to surface waters, nor any contravention of groundwater or surface water standards. In
the event the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions due
to improper operation and maintenance, or failure of the infiltration areas to adequately assimilate the
effluent, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective actions including Division required actions, such
as the construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or infiltration facilities. [G.S.

compliance boundary is established at either 250 feet from the effluent disposal area, or 50 feet within
the property boundary, whichever is closest to the effluent disposal area. An exceedance of
groundwater standards at or beyond the compliance boundary is subject to remediation action according
to 15A NCAC 02L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in accordance with North Carolina
General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C. [15A NCAC 02L .0106(d)(2), 02L .0107(b)]
7. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0108, the review boundary is established midway between the
compliance boundary and the effluent disposal area. Any exceedance of groundwater standards at the
review boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0106. LISA NCAC 02L
.0106, 02L .0108]
8. The Permittee shall apply for a permit modification to establish a new compliance boundary prior to

5. In the event the permitted facilities change ownership or the Permittee changes their name, a formal
permit modification request shall be submitted to the Division. This request shall be made on official
Division forms, and shall include appropriate property ownership documentation and other supporting
documentation as necessary. The Permittee of record shall remain fully responsible for maintaining
and operating the facilities permitted herein until a permit is issued to the new owner. [15A NCAC

9. Unless the Division Director grants a variance, expansion of the permitted facilities contained herein
shall not be granted if the Permittee exemplifies any of the criteria in 15A NCAC 02T .0120(b). [15A
NCAC 02T.0120]
10. The Permittee shall pay the annual fee within 30 days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay
the annual fee accordingly shall be cause for the Division to revoke this permit. [15A NCAC 02T

1. 3 x Year monitoring shall be conducted in March, July & November; Annual monitoring shall be conducted every November.
2, The measurement of water levels shall be made prior to purging the wells. The depth to water in each well shall
be measured from the
surveyed point on the top of the casing.
The measurement of
pH shall be made after purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
3. The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the relative elevation
of the measuring
point for each monitoring well. The measuring points (top of
casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed relative to a common datum.
4. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) - In November only, analyze by one of the following methods:
a. Standard Method 6230D, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
b. Standard Method 6210D, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
C. EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 gg/L or less
d. EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 pg/L or less
e. Another method with prior approval by the Water Quality Permitting Section Chief
Any method used must meet the following qualifications:
a. A laboratory must be DWR certified to run any method used.
b. The method used must, at a minimum, include all the constituents listed in Table VIII of Standard Method 6230D.
C. The method used must provide a PQL of 0.5 µg/L or less that must be supported by laboratory proficiency studies as required by DWR. Any constituents detected above the MDL but below
the PQL of 0.5 µg/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported.
5. If any volatile organic compounds (VOC) are detected as a result of monitoring as provided in Attachment C, then the Wilmington Regional Office supervisor, telephone number [phone],
must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any additional follow-up analyses required.
6. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/L are detected in any downgradient monitoring well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual constituents comprising
this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 mg/L, this concentration will be taken to represent the naturally occurring TOC
concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and analysis as described above.
7. Monitoring wells shall be reported consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in Figure I and this attachment.
