Please find attached the non -discharge system permit renewal application for Permit No.
WQ0003396 for Arauco Panels USA, LLC. Arauco is sending this application to renew the current
wastewater permit and respond to NOD-2018-LV-0141. Arauco's Moncure facility has struggled
to comply with certain current permit conditions due to the age of the system. The spray fields
have been in operation since 1987. The fields are now unable to handle all the wastewater
generated from the upgraded MDF facility that was restarted in 2009. Since the spray fields are
a major restriction to site production, Arauco has been pumping and hauling wastewater to the
City of Sanford's Big Buffalo WWTP since October 2016. In May of 2017, the City approached
Arauco about extending a wastewater pipeline to the Moncure area and having Arauco connect
to become a customer. To achieve limits set out by the Industrial User Pretreatment (IUP)
program issued by the City, Arauco will need to implement a pretreatment system prior to
discharging to the City.
Arauco would like to modify the current system to reflect the future wastewater treatment
system. Currently, Arauco is permitted to operate a closed -loop recycle and conjunctive
reclaimed water system. Neither of these systems were commissioned because they were unable
to handle the wastewater and treat it to the necessary quality for process make up water. Arauco
is requesting to repurpose existing equipment, which includes: Dissolved Air Floatation, screw
presses, pumps, and other associated equipment, to treat the wastewater before discharging to
the future pipeline that will be connected to the City of Sanford's Big Buffalo WWTP. Attached is
a schematic that outlines how existing equipment will be repurposed to treat the wastewater. In
addition to this, Arauco would like to add in the boiler water blowdown from MDF and cooling
tower blowdown from Particleboard into the wastewater streams.
Additionally, Arauco would like to modify the daily average influent flow from 56,000 gallons per
day to 120,000 gallons per day. Arauco currently is permitted to remove up to 300,000 gallons
per day through pump and haul. Arauco will use a combination of pump and haul and spraying
when weather conditions allow, to process the wastewater generated by the MDF and
particleboard facilities.
Arauco is also submitting a NDPONC O1-16 form to change names from Arauco Panels USA, LLC
to Arauco North America, Inc. Attached is an official organization letter to signify that this is
strictly a name change and no ownership change.
If you have any questions or comments please reach out to Yvonne Couts, Moncure
Environmental Coordinator, at Yvonne.couts@arauco-na.com or 919-545-5848.

Re: Reorganization and Name Change - Arauco North America, Inc. and Arauco Canada
Limited
This is to inform you that, effective January 1, 2019, our company will streamline its
operations and undergo a reorganization of our three U.S. entities: Arauco Wood Products, Inc.,
Arauco Panels USA, LLC and Flakeboard America Limited. These three entities will integrate to
provide the same quality and variety of composite panels, plywood, moulding, lumber or pulp
products as before and will begin operating under the name Arauco North America, Inc.
Simultaneously, our Canadian entity Flakeboard Company Limited will change its name to Arauco
Canada Limited. It should be noted that this is a legal entity change only and no other significant
structural organizational changes are being made as a result of this process.
As a result of the foregoing, any agreed terms that are by and between your business and
the aforementioned entities shall remain and will continue with Arauco North America, Inc. and/or
Arauco Canada Limited. If a purchase order exists wherein the estimated on -site delivery is
planned to be on or after January 1, 2019, all invoices should be amended to reflect Arauco North
America, Inc. or Arauco Canada Limited.
Over the coming weeks, the Arauco team will be contacting your effected departments to
ensure any required updates are communicated well in advance of the reorg effective date. We look
forward to your continuous support and cooperation and assure you that this reorg will help simplify
the way we operate and allow us to improve our overall service.
