Subject: Draft NPDES Permit Renewal
Permit NC0020800
Andrews WWTP
Cherokee County
Grade III Biological WPCS
SIC Code 4952
Dear Mr. Reid:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the Draft NPDES permit renewal for your facility. Please
review this draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the requirements and
conditions it contains. There are several changes from the existing permit, including the
following:
• Effluent sampling data for copper and zinc showed no reasonable potential to violate
Water Quality Standards. Quarterly monitoring requirements for zinc and copper have
been removed from the permit [See A.(1)].
• The Town of Andrews reported Total Silver at less than detection, with a detection level
of< 5 jig/L in their Discharge Monitoring Reports and Effluent Pollutant Scans. The
Town's allowable discharge concentration for Total Silver is 0.44 µg/L based on the
water quality standard and stream dilution. DWR's laboratory identifies the target
Practical Quantification Limit (PQL) for Total Silver as 1 jig/L. 15A NCAC 2B .0505 (e)
(4)requires that all test procedures must produce detection and reporting levels that are
below the permit discharge requirements and all data generated must be reported to the
approved detection level or lower reporting level of the procedure. If no approved
methods are capable of achieving a detection level below the permit discharge
requirement(or allowable discharge concentration) the method with the lowest detection
level shall be used. The Town of Andrews shall test for Total Silver down to the target
PQL, including when performing Effluent Pollutant Scans. Quarterly monitoring for
silver has been added to the permit [See A.(1.)].
• The Town of Andrew's allowable discharge concentration is 5.26 jig/L for Total
Cadmium. 15A NCAC 2B .0505 (e) (4) requires that all test procedures must produce
detection and reporting levels that are below the permit discharge requirements and all

o.r.r.. m\/' 919.707.9000
data generated must be reported to the approved detection level or lower reporting level
of the procedure. The Town reported Total Cadmium at levels that meet this requirement
on all but one account. The Town should test for Total Cadmium down to a PQL below
the allowable discharge concentration for all Total Cadmium samples moving forward.
While no monitoring requirement has been added to the permit for Total Cadmium at this
time, the Division can modify the permit and add a limit or add limits during the next
renewal if this regulation is not satisfied.
• The NC 2007-2014 Water Quality Standard(WQS) Triennial Review was approved by
the NC Environmental Management Committee(EMC) on November 13, 2014. The US
EPA subsequently approved the WQS revisions on April 6, 2016 with some exceptions.
The NC Division of Water Resources NPDES Permitting Unit is required to implement
the new dissolved metal standards in all permits public noticed after April 6, 2016. The
new standards for most metals include acute standards. Further, the freshwater standards
for several metals are expressed as the dissolved form of the metals, and seven metals
have hardness-dependent equations. As a result, the NPDES Permitting Unit will need
site-specific effluent hardness data and instream hardness data, upstream of the discharge,
for each facility monitoring these metals in order to calculate permit limitations. Effluent
hardness and instream hardness sampling, upstream of the discharge, has been added to
the permit at a monitoring frequency of quarterly [See A.(1.)].
• To emphasize proper monitoring of total mercury and to provide adequate data for mercury
TMDL evaluation, an annual monitoring requirement for Total Mercury has been added to
the permit [See A.(1.)]. Total Mercury sampling shall be conducted using EPA Method
1631 E. If the proper method is not used by the Permittee, the Division can modify the
permit and add a limit or add limits during the next renewal.
• Some of the wording has changed in Special Condition A. (2.), Chronic Toxicity Permit
Limit, please review each paragraph carefully.
• Special Condition A. (3.)has been modified to include the specific three years in which
the Effluent Pollutant Scan shall be performed (2020, 2021,and 2022). In addition,at
the end of the Special Condition, 2nd species Toxicity Testing Requirements for
municipal permit renewals per Federal Regulations [40 CFR 122.21(j)(5)] have been
added.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports
(DMRs) and program reports. The requirement to continue reporting discharge
monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's Electronic Discharge Monitoring
Report (eDMR) internet application has been added to your NPDES permit [See
Special Condition A. (5.)].
• Parameter codes have been added to the Effluent Limitations and Monitoring
Requirements [See A. (1.)].
• Regulatory citations have been added to the permit.
The NPDES Standard Conditions (Parts II, III, and IV) are not included with this draft. They
can be found at the following link if you would like to review them in conjunction with this draft
permit.

A. (2) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (Quarterly)
[15A NCAC 02B.0200]
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or
significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 13% at 1.5 MGD
flow regime.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures
outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised
December 2010, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent
Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised- December 2010) or subsequent versions. The tests will be
performed during the months of March, June, September and December. These months
signify the first month of each three-month toxicity testing quarter assigned to the facility.
Effluent sampling for this testing must be obtained during representative effluent discharge
and shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment
processes.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure
or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple-concentration testing shall be performed at
a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II
Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised-December 2010) or subsequent
versions.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the
Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed,
using the parameter code TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B for the Chronic Value.
Additionally, DWR Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address:
Attention: North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1621
Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Water Sciences Section no later
than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements
and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or
approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be
measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity
monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the
aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number,
county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of"No Flow" in the comment area
of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Water Sciences Section at the address cited
above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required,
monitoring will be required during the following month. Assessment of toxicity compliance is
based on the toxicity testing quarter, which is the three month time interval that begins on the
first day of the month in which toxicity testing is required by this permit and continues until
the final day of the third month.

submitted to the following address: NC DEQ / DWR / Central Files, 1617 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617.
Additional Toxicity Testing Requirements for Municipal Permit Renewal. Please note that
Municipal facilities that are subject to the Effluent Pollutant Scan requirements listed above
are also subject to additional toxicity testing requirements specified in Federal Regulation 40
CFR 122.21(j)(5). The US EPA requires four (4) toxicity tests for a test organism other than the
test species currently required in this permit. The multiple species tests should be conducted
either quarterly for a 12-month period prior to submittal of the permit renewal application, or
four tests performed at least annually in the four and one half year period prior to the
application. These tests shall be performed for acute or chronic toxicity, whichever is specified
in this permit. The multiple species toxicity test results shall be filed with the Aquatic
Toxicology Branch at the following address:
North Carolina Division of Water Resources
Water Sciences Section/Aquatic Toxicology Branch
1621 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621
Contact the Division's Aquatic Toxicology Branch at 919-743-8401 for guidance on conducting
the additional toxicity tests and reporting requirements. Results should also be summarized in
Part E (Toxicity Testing Data) of EPA Municipal Application Form 2A, when submitting the
permit renewal application to the NPDES Permitting Unit.
A. (4.) ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF MONITORING REPORTS
[G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs) and
program reports. The final NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule was adopted and became effective
on December 21, 2015.
NOTE: This special condition supplements or supersedes the following sections within Part II
of this permit (Standard Conditions for NPDES Permits):
• Section B. (11.) Signatory Requirements
• Section D. (2.) Reporting
• Section D. (6.) Records Retention
• Section E. (5.) Monitoring Reports
1. Reporting Requirements [Supersedes Section D. (2.) and Section E. (5.) (a)1
The permittee shall report discharge monitoring data electronically using the NC DWR's
Electronic Discharge Monitoring Report (eDMR) internet application.
Monitoring results obtained during the previous month(s) shall be summarized for each
month and submitted electronically using eDMR. The eDMR system allows permitted
facilities to enter monitoring data and submit DMRs electronically using the internet. Until
such time that the state's eDMR application is compliant with EPA's Cross-Media
Electronic Reporting Regulation (CROMERR), permittees will be required to submit all
discharge monitoring data to the state electronically using eDMR and will be required to
Page 8 of 10
Permit NC0020800
complete the eDMR submission by printing, signing, and submitting one signed original
and a copy of the computer printed eDMR to the following address:
NC DEQ / Division of Water Resources / Water Quality Permitting Section
ATTENTION: Central Files
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617
If a permittee is unable to use the eDMR system due to a demonstrated hardship or due to
the facility being physically located in an area where less than 10 percent of the households
have broadband access, then a temporary waiver from the NPDES electronic reporting
requirements may be granted and discharge monitoring data may be submitted on paper
DMR forms (MR 1, 1.1, 2, 3) or alternative forms approved by the Director. Duplicate
signed copies shall be submitted to the mailing address above. See "How to Request a
Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below.
Regardless of the submission method, the first DMR is due on the last day of the month
following the issuance of the permit or in the case of a new facility, on the last day of the
month following the commencement of discharge.
Starting on December 21, 2020, the permittee must electronically report the following
compliance monitoring data and reports, when applicable:
• Sewer Overflow/Bypass Event Reports;
• Pretreatment Program Annual Reports; and
• Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 316(b) Annual Reports.
The permittee may seek an electronic reporting waiver from the Division (see "How to
Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting" section below).
2. Electronic Submissions
In accordance with 40 CFR 122.41(1)(9), the permittee must identify the initial recipient at
the time of each electronic submission. The permittee should use the EPA's website
resources to identify the initial recipient for the electronic submission.
Initial recipient of electronic NPDES information from NPDES-regulated facilities means the
entity (EPA or the state authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES program) that is the
designated entity for receiving electronic NPDES data [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)].
EPA plans to establish a website that will also link to the appropriate electronic reporting
tool for each type of electronic submission and for each state. Instructions on how to
access and use the appropriate electronic reporting tool will be available as well.
Information on EPA's NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule is found at:
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/10/22/2015-24954/national-pollutant-
discharge-elimination-system-npdes-electronic-reporting-rule
Electronic submissions must start by the dates listed in the "Reporting Requirements"
section above.
3. How to Request a Waiver from Electronic Reporting
The permittee may seek a temporary electronic reporting waiver from the Division. To
obtain an electronic reporting waiver, a permittee must first submit an electronic reporting
Page 9 of 10
Permit NC0020800
waiver request to the Division. Requests for temporary electronic reporting waivers must be
submitted in writing to the Division for written approval at least sixty (60) days prior to the
date the facility would be required under this permit to begin submitting monitoring data
and reports. The duration of a temporary waiver shall not exceed 5 years and shall
thereupon expire. At such time, monitoring data and reports shall be submitted
electronically to the Division unless the permittee re-applies for and is granted a new
temporary electronic reporting waiver by the Division. Approved electronic reporting
waivers are not transferrable. Only permittees with an approved reporting waiver request
may submit monitoring data and reports on paper to the Division for the period that the
approved reporting waiver request is effective.
Information on eDMR and the application for a temporary electronic reporting waiver are
found on the following web page:
http://deq.nc.goy/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr
4. Signatory Requirements [Supplements Section B. (11.1 (b1 and Supersedes Section B.
111.) (d1l
All eDMRs submitted to the permit issuing authority shall be signed by a person described
in Part II, Section B. (11.)(a) or by a duly authorized representative of that person as
described in Part II, Section B. (11.)(b). A person, and not a position, must be delegated
signatory authority for eDMR reporting purposes.
For eDMR submissions, the person signing and submitting the DMR must obtain an eDMR
user account and login credentials to access the eDMR system. For more information on
North Carolina's eDMR system, registering for eDMR and obtaining an eDMR user account,
please visit the following web page:
http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/edmr
Certification. Any person submitting an electronic DMR using the state's eDMR system
shall make the following certification [40 CFR 122.22]. NO OTHER STATEMENTS OF
CERTIFICATION WILL BE ACCEPTED:
"I certify, under penalty of law, that this document and all attachments were prepared under
my direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualified
personnel properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of
the person or persons who manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for
gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of my knowledge and
belief, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for
submitting false information, including the possibility of fines and imprisonment for knowing
violations."
5. Records Retention [Supplements Section D. (6.11
The permittee shall retain records of all Discharge Monitoring Reports, including eDMR
submissions. These records or copies shall be maintained for a period of at least 3 years
from the date of the report. This period may be extended by request of the Director at any
