Lauren - Here is a listing of the NPDES WW permits In the .six river basins you identified. It should shed some light on
What the universe of permits in that drainage looks like. Permits are color -coded by river basin (basin is also noted in
Column J) and sorted in order of facility type, river basin, and permitted flow. — Mike T

Hi, Lauren —
I Work on nutrient issues and trading; in NC's NPDES program and can compile this information for you. First, I need to
get a better idea of what information you hope to collect and how soon You need it.
0 Are you looking for permit limits, or actual discharge data, or both?
If you need discharge data, do you have a particular size and type of facility in mind? (We have nearly 350 active
Wastewater permits in the six basins you listed, most of which monitor their discharges for nutrients. In general,
WWTPs of 0.1 MGD and greater capacity account for 98-99rb of the point .source nutrient contribution to surface
Waters and are the most likely to receive TN & TP lirnits.)
* What nitrogen .species do you need (just 'i'N, or NH,?,-N, NC-N+NC2-N, & TKN?), and over What time period?
6 Are You interested in any other parameters besides nutrients — flow, BOD, etc.?
Generating a list: of permit: limits for these dischargers is straightforward, and I can probably get that: to yd:sda in tale next
few days, a Week at the outside. Compiling effluent data for this many dischargers is more involved and even more so
With additional parameters. This could easily take another couple of Weeks or so to complete, depending on the quality
of the data I get from the queries and what: else lands on my desk in the meantime.
I look forward to hearing back from You and to collecting the information You need. I would also be interested in hearing
more about the scope of your trading project, if you can talk about that.
Thanks.

DEQ-CFW 00054217

Good afternoon Jeff,
My name is Lauren Patterson and I am working on a water quality trading project between WWTP in the Albemarle-
PamlicoSounddrainin8basinsofNorth[aroUna.|havebeentryin8tofindtheannua|Tota|NandTota|P|oadin8rates
for NPIDES permitted WWTP's in these basins. Marion Deerhake, from RTI, suggested I get in touch with you for how to
obtain a list of NPIDES permitted point sources and their permitted annual loading rates in the Neuse, Tar, Roanoke,
Choxvan,Pasquotank,and White Oak basins.
Thank you for any help or further advice you can give me.
Sincerely,
Lauren
