Section 1. Facility Activities and Process:
The Duke Energy Progress, LLC Mayo Electric Generating Plant is a dual boiler coal fired electric
generating plant with a net generating capacity of 745 megawatts. The monofill receives only coal
combustion residuals. A public hearing was held in 2016 during the previous permit review and
issuance.
Per the 2020 permit renewal application, all process water redirect work, including grading to remove all
process flows from the ash basin to a newly constructed lined retention basin, was completed.
Otherwise, no changes have occurred in the drainage areas of the three existing outfalls. However, Duke
Energy would like to add the three stormwater outfalls from the Mayo Monofill (Outfalls 001, 002, and
003) and not renew NCG120101, which the monofill outfalls are currently covered under. NCG120101
has had trouble with fecal coliform monitoring due to the abundant wildlife around the monofill. The
industrial activity at the monofill, transport of materials, is similar in nature to the activity at the
Station's stormwater outfall 010.
Outfall SW001: Monofill
Drainage area includes trucks hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water or brine to minimize dust),
off specification gypsum, and other approved monofill waste.
Page 1 of 8
Outfall SW002: Monofill
Drainage area includes trucks hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water or brine to minimize dust),
off specification gypsum, and other approved monofill waste.
Outfall SW003: Monofill
Drainage area includes trucks hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water or brine to minimize dust),
off specification gypsum, and other approved monofill waste.
Outfall SW006a: Cooling Towe
Discharge area includes mobile equipment utilization. Potential pollutants include: Petroleum and
herbicides.
Outfall SW007: Formerly SW002, Discharge to Bowes Branch
Drainage area includes the railroad corridor for coal delivery, a stockpile area and equipment storage for
an active construction project, a temporary construction trailer, a permanent facility warehouse, a
permanent facility material stockpile, and equipment staging areas.
Outfall SWO10: Access Road
Drainage area includes vehicular traffic from flue gas desulfurization system and ash handling system.
This will include trucks hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water to minimize dust), limestone for
injection into the stack as part of the flue gas desulfurization system, and gypsum(by-product of the
FGD process).
Additional Outfalls:
Per the previous stormwater permit: Outfalls 004, 005 006c, 006d, and 006e are included in wastewater
NPDES permit NC0038377 due to potential non-stormwater discharge. Outfall 006b does not have a
defined point source discharge. Without a point source this outfall is not covered by the NPDES
stormwater program and is not included in this permit.
Why Industrial Sites with Stormwater are Subject to a Permit: Federal NPDES regulations define
stormwater discharge associated with industrial activity in 40 CFR §122.26 (b)(14) as: "the discharge
from any conveyance that is used for collecting and conveying storm water and that is directly related to
manufacturing,processing or raw materials storage areas at an industrial plant. The term does not
include discharges from facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program under this part 122.
For the categories of industries identified in this section, the term includes, but is not limited to, storm
water [sic] discharges from industrial plant yards; immediate access roads and rail lines used or traveled
by carriers of raw materials, manufactured products, waste material, or byproducts used or created by
the facility; material handling sites; refuse sites; sites used for the application or disposal of process
waste waters (as defined at part 401 of this chapter); sites used for the storage and maintenance of
material handling equipment; sites used for residual treatment, storage, or disposal; shipping and
receiving areas; manufacturing buildings; storage areas (including tank farms) for raw materials, and
intermediate and final products; and areas where industrial activity has taken place in the past and
significant materials remain and are exposed to storm water. For the purposes of this paragraph, material
handling activities include storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw
material, intermediate product, final product, byproduct or waste product. The term excludes areas
located on plant lands separate from the plant's industrial activities, such as office buildings and
accompanying parking lots as long as the drainage from the excluded areas is not mixed with storm
water [sic] drained from the above described areas."

Section 2. Monitoring Information and Compliance History:
• NCS000580: March 2017 to January 2022, benchmarks exceeded for:
o SWO02: Copper 2x, Mercury 3x, Zinc Ix, TSS Ix
o SWO06a: Copper 3x, Selenium Ix, Mercury 3x
o SWO10: pH lx, Copper lx, O&G 2x, Mercury 7x
• NCG120101: December 2014 to May 2022,benchmarks exceeded for:
o SW001: Selenium Ix, Fecal coliform Ix, Copper Ix, Mercury 2x, Zinc Ix
o SWO02: COD Ix, TSS Ix, Selenium Ix, Fecal coliform 3x, Copper 2x, Mercury 2x,
Zinc Ix
o SWO03: TSS 2x, Selenium Ix, Fecal coliform 3x, Copper 2x, Mercury 2x, Zinc Ix
• PCB monitoring was not performed during the previous permit cycle as required
• Fish tissue data submitted for April 2017 to May 2019
o Per permit renewal application,prior to 2019, the Mayo Reservoir Trace Element fish
sampling program focused on plant operations in respect to sustainable fish populations.
With the implementation of flue gas desulfurization, zero liquid discharge system and ash
basin modifications, water column and fish tissue concentration for various metals have
declined since 2014.
Section 3. Proposed Monitoring for Stormwater Discharges:
The Division considered potential pollutants from past and present industrial activities (coal-fired
electric generation) and data was submitted for March 2017 to January 2022. Quantitative sampling
included pH, TSS, O&G, boron, antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead,
nickel, selenium, silver, thallium, zinc, and mercury.
Parameters are based on potential pollutants in the drainage area, sampling results, and in some cases,
dependent upon future activities (e.g., ash removal through the drainage area). Below is a table of the
proposed monitoring for each outfall at the Mayo Steam Electric Power Plant site.
Outfalls SWO01, SWO02, SWO03, SWO06, SWO07, and SW010

Stormwater Benchmarks and Tiered Response: Rather than limits,North Carolina NPDES
Stormwater permits contain benchmark concentrations. Stormwater benchmarks are numerical action
levels for stormwater monitoring. Benchmarks are not effluent limits, and benchmark exceedances are
not permit violations. Benchmarks provide facilities a tool for assessing the significance of pollutants in
stormwater discharges and the effectiveness of best management practices (BMPs). Benchmark
concentrations are intended as guidelines for the facility's development and implementation of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP).
Benchmark exceedances require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions,
increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater BMPs in a tiered program. The permit establishes a
tiered approach to specify actions the permittee must take in response to analytical results above
benchmark concentrations. The tiered structure of the permit provides the permittee and DEMLR wide
flexibility to address issues that may arise with one or more parameters and/or outfalls.
Metals benchmarks are calculated to mimic acute water quality standards and with the guidance of
DWR. NC DWR follows established federal procedures for calculating acute standards when developing
the benchmarks. Just like the acute standards, metals benchmarks normally reflect one half of the
calculated Final Acute Value (the "1/2 FAV"). In most cases, translation into total recoverable values is
based on an assumed hardness of 25 mg/L and a total suspended solids (TSS) concentration of 10 mg/L.
Acute standards protect aquatic life from negative impacts of short-term exposure to higher levels of
chemicals where the discharge enters a waterbody. The Stormwater Permitting Program applies this
approach because of the ephemeral nature of rainfall events.
The Division may evaluate results to determine if a smaller suite of parameters for some outfalls is
adequate to characterize potential pollution or BMP effectiveness. For example, one or more metals or
other parameters may serve as an adequate tracer for the presence of ash pollution during disturbance or
ash removal in specific drainage areas at this site. For parameters that do not have a stormwater
benchmark, the Division may develop a benchmark value if appropriate toxicity data become available
or if rising trends in concentrations suggest a persistent source.
A summary of the benchmarks in the draft permit, and their basis, is below:

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: The proposed permit conditions reflect the EPA and NC's
pollution prevention approach to stormwater permitting. The Division's maintains that implementation
of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and traditional stormwater management practices that control the
source of pollutants meets the definition of Best Available Technology (BAT) and Best Conventional
Pollutant Control Technology(BCT). The permit conditions are not numeric effluent limitations but are
designed to be flexible requirements for implementing site-specific plans to minimize and control
pollutants in stormwater discharges associated with the industrial activity. Title 40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) §122.44(k)(2) authorizes the use of BMPs in lieu of numeric effluent limitations in
NPDES permits when the agency finds numeric effluent limitations to be infeasible. The agency may
also impose BMP requirements which are "reasonably necessary" to carry out the purposes of the Act
under the authority of 40 CFR 122.44(k)(3). The conditions proposed in this draft permit are included
under the authority of both of these regulatory provisions. In essence, the pollution prevention and BMP
requirements operate as limitations on effluent discharges that reflect the application of BAT/BCT.
Mercury Monitoring Requirements: The proposed permit requires mercury to be measured in
stormwater samples by EPA Method 1631E, which can detect levels as low as 0.5 ng/l. This requirement
is consistent with recent federal rule-making that requires NPDES permittees to monitor discharges with
sufficiently sensitive test procedures approved under 40 CFR §136. Modifications to 40 CFR §122.44(i)
require a method that has a minimum level (ML) at or below the effluent limit(not applicable here), or
the lowest minimum level (ML) of EPA approved analytical methods for the measured parameter. Based
on results, Method 1631E will be required to quantify levels in these discharges. NC DEMLR
understands that this method is more costly and requires a more intensive sampling protocol than most
other parameters, and that fish tissue sampling will be provided during the permit cycle. Therefore, no
benchmark applies that would trigger tiered response actions. Proposed permit provisions also allow the
permittee to use field blank and/or method blank concentrations to adjust reported mercury levels as
long as documented is submitted with the Data Monitoring Report DMR).
Flexibility in Tier Responses: Tier Two actions provide an opportunity for the permittee to propose an
alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Region:
• Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive exceedances,
exercise the option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as provided below in Tier
Page 6 of 8
Three. The Regional Engineer may direct the response actions on the part of the permittee as
provided in Tier Three, including reduced or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
• If pursuing the alternative above after two consecutive exceedances, the permittee may propose
an alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Regional Engineer.
The permit therefore allows the permittee to petition the Regional Office for monitoring changes sooner
than Tier Three (upon any four benchmark exceedances) and gives guidance on one option to take. For
example, the permittee may request that mercury only be monitored semi-annually under the tiers, or
that only parameters over the benchmark be monitored more frequently. In this way, changes to the
monitoring scheme for any outfall could be handled outside of a permit modification.
Other Proposed Requirements:
• It is standard for Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP)requirements to include an
annual certification that stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-
stormwater discharges, and if any are identified, how those discharges are permitted or otherwise
authorized.
• Requirement to submit a request for permit modification if the facility identifies or creates any
new outfalls, removes outfalls, or alters any drainage area that changes potential pollutants.
• The Division expects the permittee to apply best professional judgment and consider the safety
of its personnel in fulfilling sampling obligations under the permit.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs). If a
state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs
electronically to the EPA.
• Quarterly QualitativeNisual Monitoring to assure regular observation of outfalls throughout
year.
Section 4. Chanp_es from previous permit to draft:
• Monitoring increased from semi-annually to quarterly for all parameters (qualitative and
quantitative)
• "No discharge" clarifications made
• eDMR requirement added
• Feasibility study removed per SW program guidelines
• Boilerplate language moved into body of the permit; boilerplate no longer attached
• Monitoring for total hardness added for outfalls SW006, SW007 (formerly SW002) and SWO10
as monitoring for hardness dependent metals is required
• Benchmarks updated for parameters per guidance from DWR Standards group on stormwater
benchmarks
• Outfalls SW001, new SW002, and SW003 added from NCG210101 per permittee's request
o New monitoring requirements assigned to each outfall (different from what NCG120101
required)
• Existing Outfall SW002 has been renumbered as Outfall SW007 to accommodate new outfalls
added
Page 7 of 8
Section 5. Changes from draft to final:
• Part B has had references to coal ash clean-up added back in
o Information mistakenly removed in draft permit
• Footnote added under Table I that PCB monitoring may cease after the first year
o Footnote mistakenly left off draft permit
Section 6. Discussions with the Facility and Regional Office:
• Initial contact with facility: 8/5/2022
• Initial contact with Regional Office: 8/5/2022
• Draft sent to CO peer review: 5/17/2023
• Draft sent to Regional Office: 6/14/2023
• Final permit sent for supervisor signature: 7/26/2023
Section 7. Comments received on draft permit:
• Shawn Guyer (PWS; via email 7/3/2023): The PWS Section concurs with the issuance of this
permit provided the facility is operated and maintained properly, the stated effluent limits are
met prior to discharge, and the discharge does not contravene the designated water quality
standards.
• Lori Tollie (Duke Energy; via email 6/30/2023): We have reviewed the Mayo Draft ISW and
have one question. In the previous permit after 2 non detects for PCBs we could discontinue
monitoring. Is that still the process?
o DEMLR response: The footnote was inadvertently left off the draft permit. The permit
will be corrected to add the footnote back in before a decision is made on the final permit.

Inspection Summary:
I meet with Leanne Wilson,Lori Tollie and others at the Mayo facility for Duke Energy to perform a stormwater complaince
inspection. During this inspection I found that the permittee keeps very extensive and detailed records and documentation to
meet the stormwater permit requirements. There were just a couple areas that I would request that specific attention be
paid, to better capture and prevent any stormwater pollution issues. The site map was included with much of the information
required, there were areas that should have been identified, such as the chlorine building, that were not shown on the map.
Any areas with the potential for pollution to stormwater,along with any other areas required by the permit,should be shown
on the map.
Site inspections are done regularly, but there are some site specific areas with the potential to pollute stormwater that
should be added to the checklist such as the chlorine building. Example: There are poly totes without secondary
containment under the shed side of the building that have the potential to leak, spill or to crack and cause a spill that would
be exposed to stormwater. There were chemicals stored next to the rollup door that could be a potential stormwater
pollutant that should be stored in a safe location that would have been identified as an issue if that area was part of a
checklist. Please provide checklist for all site specific areas with the potential to be a stormwater pollutant source.
The request to combine the two stormwater permits for the monilift NCG120101 and the individual stormwater permit
NCS000580 has been approved. The number system has been altered to reflect the requested removal of alphanumeric
numbering as well as making the requested changes to the numbering for stormwater permit NCS000580. Outfall 002 is now
007 for that permit outfall.These changes will come effective at the renewal of your stormwater permit NCS000580. Also, at
the same time as the renewal stormwater permit NCG120101 will be rescinded.

Brianna
The facility contact for the (Mayo) Duke Energy plant NCS000580 have asked for the previously requested combination
of permits NCS000580 & NCG120101, discussed with Bethany in 2018, be initiated in this renewal. I have attached the
request letter that was signed by Bethany for review. Duke Energy(Mayo) Plant would also like to change SDO-002 to
007 on the NCS000580 permit site due to having 3)002 SDO's at the facility.They would like to combine permit
NCG120101-SDO-001,002 &003 with permit NCS000580-SDO-006, 007 (presently 002) &010 for a combined Individual
permit NCS000580 with SDO-002,003, 003, 006,007 &010.
I was a bit confused with the sample requirements for the two permits, but they are close to one another and may only
require an additional one sample parameter be added to capture all sample requirement for both.
Fecal Coliform was removed by our office in 2018 and that document is available in Laserfiche.
If all that is acceptable, I will draft the inspection report in BIMs to reflect that with a couple other recommendations for
your review for the renewal.

f,E ` I D Person County
Dear Mr. Copolo: 1 I ��I~11r :
Please see the attached new�e4640 ICoverage(COC) No.NCG120101 for renewed coverage
under Stormwater General Permit NCG120000 for this facility. This permit is reissued pursuant to
the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement
between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October
15, 2007(or as subsequently amended.)
We received the company's request for clarification on this COC renewal on September 13, 2018.
Renewed coverage under this General Permit is granted with the condition that the permittee
performs additional sampling requirements as outlined in the amended conditions to the COC. These
requirements are based on the material landfilled at this site. This COC requires you to sample each
SDO semi-annually for arsenic,selenium,boron,conductivity,and pH. This COC also does not
require fecal coliform monitoring. These monitoring parameters are based on the coal combustion
residual material stored, and on monitoring results from 2014 and 2017 that were submitted with the
request.
Duke Energy indicated it would request a modification to NPDES Industrial Permit No. NCS000580
for Mayo Electric Generating Plant to include stormwater discharges from the Mayo Monofill. The
Stormwater Program agrees a modification to that individual permit to include those discharges is
preferable to continued coverage under this General Permit, Because General Permit NCG 120000
expires on May 31, 2021—six months prior to the expiration of Mayo Plant's individual permit—our
staff can coordinate a permit modification with the renewal of the individual permit.

The permittee is required to apply for renewal no later than 180 days(six months) before the
expiration of the Plant's individual permit NCS000580(per Part III., Section B.): by July 1, 2021 in
this case. Because that date occurs after the General Permit expires, we advise the company to
request the modification and apply for renewal of NCS000580 by December 31,2020. This date will
give Program staff the opportunity to renew and issue the permit before the COC for the Monofill
expires.
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations with
respect to discharge controls, management, monitoring,and record keeping. Please review the new
permit to familiarize yourself with all changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six(6)months
from receipt of the permit to update your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SPPP)to reflect any
new permit requirements. Enclosed is a copy of the NCG 120000 General Permit.
When does electronic DMR(eDMR)reporting start,and does it affect this permit?
Because this COC requires analytical monitoring, eDMR will affect you. We are working toward on-
boarding permittees with NPDES stormwater permits into the DEQ's eDMR system next
year. Permittees will receive notification when our eDMR system is ready for permit-holders to
register and begin reporting monitoring data electronically.
Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of
DEMLR. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be
required by the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality(DEQ),nor does it relieve the permittee
from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state,or local law,rule,
standard,ordinance,order,judgment,or decree.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Bethany Georgoulias at telephone
number(919)707-3641 or by email bethany.georpoulias a.ncdenr.aov.

That is all correct except for SWO02 which has become a much smaller area of drainage. It now captures a very small
drainage area that includes an access road and the railroad corridor.The outfall numbering scheme that was discussed
at the inspection included removing the alphabetical numbering and changing outfall SW002:designated as Discharge to
Bowes Branch-to out 007. Doing that would simplify the numbering by dropping the (a) designations and replace one of
the three 002 designations they have (two stormwater and one wastewater)
That gives them 001, 002 &003 at the monofil (new individual permit) and 006,007&010 for the individual stormwater
permit making it a bit simpler. Is that acceptable

Subject: NOI Inspections
I have the questions asked about the (2) Duke Power sites (NCS000580& NCS000581) I looked at last week that I need
to get an answer on before I can do my reports. I don't want to rush anyone, but just as a reminder of questions I need
answered.
Duke Energy(Mayo) NCS000580:
Can we combine the (2) stormwater permits NCS00581 & NCG120101 into one individual permit and changing (1) outfall
number when combining(Outfall 002 will become out 007 on the individual permit NCS000580)
That would make the numbering of outfall for that combined permit to be 001, 002,003, 006, 007&010 along with a
review of the samples for both permits to ensure that all sample parameters are covered
This is something that Bethany was agreeable with and discussed in a previous correspondence were she advised the
permittee to request at renewal
2
Duke Energy(Semora) NCS000581:
Can that permit be rescinded.The question is, do the rail cars that travel by that yard with gypsum, limestone and coal
establish enough of a potential problem for the permit to remain in place. I provided the sample data from the stream
outlet that runs between the yard in question and the railroad tracks in question from 2017-2020 for comparison with
benchmark values to assist with that assessment
I have plenty to do until a call on those questions can be made and I will be available for any additional questions.
Thanks for your help

I am working on renewing the individual stormwater permit for the Mayo Electric Generating Plant
(NCS000580). I need additional information in order to 1) confirm that the information I have is correct and 2)
make sure the permit adequately serves the needs of the facility. Please provide the following for both
NCS000580 as well as Certificate of Coverage (COC)NCG120101:
• Confirmation on the number of outfalls and coordinates;
• Description of industrial activity in each drainage area;
• An electronic spreadsheet summarizing all of the monitoring data that has been collected since the
effective date of the current permit;
• Verification that the information in the renewal application is still complete and correct; and
• An explanation of any operational changes since the renewal application was submitted.
Enter your stormwater permit number into the Stormwater Permit Summary Report and you will see a form that
includes the address of the facility, contact information for the permit, and the regulated stormwater outfall(s)
for the facility. Please review the facility information to make sure it is correct. Information can be updated
using the links provided below, where applicable:

Drainage Area Descriptions
Outfall 010 -Access Road
With the addition of a flue gas desulfurization system and ash handling system at the site
there will be routine vehicular traffic on the site access road. This will include trucks
hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water to minimize dust), limestone for injection
into the stack as part of the flue gas desulfurization system and gypsum(by-product of
the FGD process). All trucks will be covered and directed to a truck wash area before
leaving the site via the access road.
Outfall 001,002, 003 —Monofill
Trucks hauling conditioned ash(ash mixed with water or brine to minimize dust), off
specification gypsum, and other approved monfill waste.
Outfall 006a—Cooling Tower Area
Due mobile equipment utilization there is a potential for petroleum release. On rare
occasions herbicides are used for ground maintenance at the cooling towers.
Outfall 002—Discharge to Bowes Branch
The industrial activity and storage in the drainage area includes the railroad corridor for
coal delivery to Mayo Steam Station, a stockpile area and equipment storage for an active
construction project, a temporary construction trailer, a permanent facility warehouse, a
permanent facility material stockpile, and equipment staging areas.

Brianna,
We have 2 SW outfalls designated as 002. We had requested that the outfall discharging to Bowes Branch be designated
as outfall 002a once the modification was complete.This change would make the reporting a lot easier.Thanks so much.

Lori,
Thank you for providing this information. On quick glance, can you please define which outfall is SWO02 and which is
SW002a? It seems SWO02 is mentioned twice in the drainage area description and outfall coordinate files so I'm not sure
which one is which. I will reach out with any additional questions as I review the files in more depth.
Thank you,

Summary of Best Management Practices
3.2.3.1 Nonstructural
Best Management Practices (BMP's) are methods,procedures,processes, prohibitions of
practices and other management controls which serve to eliminate,mitigate, or reduce
pollutant loadings in storm water discharges. Examples of BMP's for the Mayo Electric
Generating Plant include:
• Source Reduction
• Good Housekeeping
• Preventive Maintenance
• Visual Inspections
• Spill Prevention and Response
• Erosion and Sediment Control
• Storm Water Runoff Management
• Employee Training
• Recordkeeping and Reporting
• Recycling
• Treatment
3.2.3.2 Source Reduction
Source reduction measures reduced storm water pollution by reducing the quantity of
materials,which may contact storm water. The source reductions measures to be
implemented may require modifications in present work habits and practices. Example
components of source reduction are:
• Good Housekeeping
• Preventive Maintenance
• Visual Inspections
• Spill Prevention and Response
• Erosion and Sediment Control
Many of the components of source reduction are addressed as main components of the
BMP, therefore, source reduction should be considered under each of the other BMP
components.
ERM NC,INC. 3-4 398458
3.2.3.3 Good Housekeeping
Good housekeeping practices are designed to maintain a clean and orderly work
environment. Good housekeeping practices should be incorporated in the day-to-day
conduct of operations and maintenance. A clean and orderly work area reduces the
possibility of accidental spills caused by the mishandling of chemicals and equipment.
Well-maintained material and chemical storage areas reduce the possibility of storm
water mixing with pollutants. The following practices shall be performed on a regular
basis:
• Maintain clean and dry floors, ground surfaces,work,and process areas through
the use of brooms, shovels,vacuum cleaners,mops and cleaning equipment.
• Regular pickup and disposal of waste materials.
• Proper operation of equipment.
• Routine visual inspections by qualified personnel for leaks or spills, and for
conditions which may lead to a leak or spill (such as the hazardous waste
inspections being performed at various areas throughout the Mayo Plant).
• Training of employees in spill prevention and cleanup procedures.
• Bags storing dry chemicals shall be raised off the floor, preferably by pallet, to
prevent any unwanted interaction of the chemical with water.
• Walkways shall be maintained free of obstructions to facilitate inspection for
leaks or spills.
The Fossil Chemistry Technician assigned the ORC duties routinely inspects work and
storage areas for best housekeeping practices. Corrections are handled by work orders
tracked through Maximo, the Company work order management system, on an as
needed basis.
3.2.3.4 Preventive Maintenance
Mayo Plant has various inspections and site assessment practices in place to assist with
detection of potential problems. Preventive maintenance schedules vary based on the
potential risk by the source. In general, the Mayo Plant is well manned in order to
ensure the facility is a reliable and efficient source of electricity.
Preventive maintenance will be performed to ensure that storm water management
facilities and controls operate correctly and effectively and to reduce their breakdowns
and failure. Specific activities include:
• Periodic inspection, cleanout and maintenance of catch basins,containment
areas, ditches,and conveyance equipment.
• Periodic scheduled inspection and testing of equipment and systems,including
pumps,valves, pipes, storage tanks, and controls.
• Proper scheduled maintenance of equipment and facilities.
Additional preventive maintenance information will be provided as a separate section
of the SPPP. r�
ERM NC,INC. 3-5 398458
3.2.3.5 Visual Inspections
Visual inspections will be performed in conjunction with other BMP's, such as
housekeeping and preventive maintenance,and also as a separate activity (see section
3.5"Facility Inspection").
3.2.3.6 Spill Prevention and Response
Spill prevention will be achieved by good housekeeping,visual inspection, and
preventive maintenance, and through training of personnel in material handling and
storage procedures, and the use of equipment. Training in proper spill identification
and cleanup procedures, including the use of equipment and the notification and
documentation procedures,will be the main components of spill response. Specific
spill preventative measures will include:
• Piping protection, such as routing, coatings and wrappings, and cathodic protection
where appropriate.
• Adherence to current unloading procedures and practices, including monitoring
and verification of all connections and seals.
• Proper valve and control settings, and adequate labels,markings, and
communications, to ensure that accidental closures or openings do not occur.
• Adequate securities to prevent non-authorized access to facilities.
• Appropriate documentation of actions taken.
Spill response will be in accordance with existing Plant Procedures, including the Spill
Prevention, Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan and the Hazardous Substance
Notification Procedure. Training is essential to a well-executed spill response.
Personnel will be trained to identify potential storm water pollution occurrences as may
occur during a spill event, and respond in the appropriate manner.
3.2.3.7 Erosion and Sediment Control
Areas under construction, or where accelerated erosion or sedimentation is occurring,
will be monitored and corrective measures will be implemented as necessary. A
Sediment Erosion Control Plan may be needed. The Environmental Site Coordinator
will decide. Vegetation or equivalent stabilization of the ground will be performed to
reduce/eliminate accelerated erosion.
3.2.3.8 Storm Water Runoff Management
Uncontaminated storm water will be diverted away from potential sources of
contamination, and discharged to a stabilized conveyance structure. Contaminated
waters will be directed to the appropriate treatment facilities prior to discharge.
Diversion efforts should be made to reduce the quantity of contaminated storm water
ERM NC,INC. 3-6 399458
that must be collected and treated depending on conditions. Vehicle washing should be
performed in areas away from storm water drains.
3.2.3.9 Employee Training
General training of employees will emphasize good housekeeping, and preventive
methods,procedures, and practices. Responsibilities will be clearly communicated to
personnel, including notification procedures for preventive and corrective measures.
Maintenance and inspection personnel will have the authority to follow-up on areas
requiring improvement. Plant personnel will trained to in safety and cleanup
operations, and recognize spill which may contribute to storm water pollution.
3.2.3.10 Recordkeeping and Reports
Training documentation will utilize the current training documentation tool.
Maintenance activities will be documented in the current Maximo work management
tool. Reports will be sent to the plant file 12520R located in the Environmental
Coordinator's Office.
3.2.3.11 Recycling
No recycling of contaminated storm water occurs at the Mayo Plant. Recycling of some
solid and universal wastes occurs at the Mayo Plant.
3.2.3.12 Treatment
Treatment measures will be the last step prior to the discharge of contaminated storm
water. Treatment is employed at the plant for those areas where, due to site constraints,
other BMP's have been found to be infeasible or too costly to implement. Periodic
vacuuming of storm drain catch basins will be conducted in high risk areas as needed.

Narrative of Significant Site Changes
The most significant industrial changes at the site since permit
issuance on January 17, 2017 include the following:
Completion of all process water redirect work including
grading to remove all process flows from the ash basin to a
newly constructed lined retention basin. This project included
the rerouting and demolition of former SW outfalls 004 and
005 completed in May of 2019. These two outfalls were
included in the NPDES Industrial Stormwater permit issued
January 17, 2017 but were later placed in the August 1, 2018
NPDES Wastewater permit due to the constituents in the
discharge.

Fish Tissue Monitoring Results
Reference for Tissue Monitoring Species Composition Changes
Prior to 2019, the Mayo Reservoir Trace Element fish sampling program focused on plant operations in respect to
sustainable fish populations. With the implementation of flue gas desulfurization,zero liquid discharge system and
ash basin modifications,water column and fish tissue concentration for various metals have declined since 2014.
Prior to 2019, catfish species were included as part of the monitoring program to evaluate metals concentrations
across multiple trophic levels. Catfish were removed from the Mayo monitoring program in starting in 2019 due
to continued low metals(As, Hg,Se) concentrations in Mayo surface waters and fish tissues. Species collected
from 2019 on include Largemouth Bass (Micropterus solmoides), and sunfish (Lepomis spp.) based on
annual Fish Tissue Monitoring Plans approved by the Water Sciences Section of the North Carolina
Division of Water Resources.

NPDES General Permit Renewal Guidance
NCG 120101
Dear Ms.Georgoulias:
As recently discussed, Duke Energy requests guidance and clarification on the renewal of the
NCG120101 general stormwater permit for the Mayo Steam Plant Monofill.The initial certificate of
coverage was issued to Duke Energy on January 6,2014.Coverage under this general permit was issued
with amended conditions requiring additional sampling. Please advise if the renewal of the general permit
will continue to require this augmented sampling schedule.
The NCG120101 has been problematic with the requirement to monitor fecal coliform due to the
abundant wildlife around the monofill. Duke Energy sought and received tier relief from monthly
monitoring of fecal coliform from DEQ in December of 2017. Unlike the sanitary landfills the
NCG12000 permit was developed for,the Mayo Monofill receives only coal combustion residuals with
wildlife being the only possible source of fecal contamination.
Duke Energy plans to request a modification of NPDES Industrial Stormwater Permit NCS060580 in the
near future to include the three stormwater outfalls at the Mayo Monofill currently covered by permit
NCG120101.The industrial activity at the monofill,transport of materials, is similar in nature to the
activity at the Station's stormwater outfall 010.
As you requested, included with this correspondence is all stormwater sampling data gathered under
permit NCG 120101 to date from the Mayo Monofill for your review.Should you have any questions
please contact me at Lori.Tollie@duke-energy.com or at 1-336-8544916.
Sincerely,
Lori To]lie
