NPDES Permit#NC0021881
Columbus County
Dear Permitting Unit:
The Town of Lake Waccamaw is submitting the renewal application package for NPDES permit
#NC0021881. The permit expiration date is July 31, 2019. The permit application package
consists of:
- Cover letter
- One original of Form 2A—NPDES Application for Permit Renewal, Parts: A, B, C and E
- Topographic Map
- Process Flow Schematic
- One additional copy of Renewal Package
The Town would like to request the following changes to the permit:
• The Town requests that quarterly monitoring for Chronic Toxicity be removed from the
permit. In your online guidance, there is an August 2, 1999 memorandum that states that
toxicity testing will be required at "major" facilities or those facilities discharging
"complex"wastewaters. The flow to the WWTP is a combination of domestic discharges
from residential and commercial sources with no industrial contributions and should not
be subject to the toxicity requirement.
• It is requested that the upstream and downstream monitoring requirements for Dissolved
Oxygen and Temperature be removed from the permit. The discharge is into a swamp,not
into a defined water course. The swamp is generally not flowing in the direction of the
river. In fact, for the most part,the flow from the river will flood the swamp and push the
water away from the river. Because the discharge is into a swamp there is no definitive
upstream or downstream sampling sites. The testing of DO and Temperature at the two
monitoring sites has no correlation to the discharge from the wastewater plant. DO in the
stream is more likely to be affected by agricultural runoff, natural decay, rainfall, etc and
any increase or decrease in DO cannot be definitely attributed to the treatment plant.
Again, since the wastewater flow is domestic in nature with no industrial dischargers that
could potentially discharge high temperature waste it is improbable that the discharge will
affect stream temperature.
• The analytical results of the Total Mercury sample sent to the Lab for analysis have not yet
been received. A copy of the results will be forwarded to you as soon as it arrives.
We appreciate your consideration of these requests. If you have any questions or comments,
please contact Mike Prostinak, WWTP Operator in Responsible Charge, at 910/918-3257.

SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
PART E. TOXICITY TESTING,.
;•,,v It
POTWs meeting one or more of the following criteria must provide the results of whole effluent toxicity tests for acute or chronic toxicity for each of the
facility's discharge points: 1)POTWs with a design flow rate greater than or equal to 1.0 mgd;2)POTWs with a pretreatment program(or those that are
required to have one under 40 CFR Part 403);or 3)POTWs required by the permitting authority to submit data for these parameters.
• At a minimum,these results must include quarterly testing for a 12-month period within the past 1 year using multiple species(minimum of two
species),or the results from four tests performed at least annually in the four and one-half years prior to the application,provided the results
show no appreciable toxicity,and testing for acute and/or chronic toxicity,depending on the range of receiving water dilution. Do not include
information on combined sewer overflows in this section. All information reported must be based on data collected through analysis conducted
using 40 CFR Part 136 methods. In addition,this data must comply with QA/QC requirements of 40 CFR Part 136 and other appropriate QA/QC
requirements for standard methods for analytes not addressed by 40 CFR Part 136.
• In addition,submit the results of any other whole effluent toxicity tests from the past four and one-half years. If a whole effluent toxicity test
conducted during the past four and one-half years revealed toxicity,provide any information on the cause of the toxicity or any results of a
toxicity reduction evaluation,if one was conducted.
• If you have already submitted any of the information requested in Part E,you need not submit it again. Rather,provide the information
requested in question E.4 for previously submitted information. If EPA methods were not used,report the reasons for using alternate methods.
If test summaries are available that contain all of the information requested below,they may be submitted in place of Part E.
If no biomonitoring data is required,do not complete Part E. Refer to the Application Overview for directions on which other sections of the form to
complete.
E.1. Required Tests.
Indicate the number of whole effluent toxicity tests conducted in the past four and one-half years.
