This notice is submitted pursuant to Part IIl.E.5 of the facility's NPDES Permit No. NCS000512, because the planned changes at the facility could alter the nature of pollutants discharged. The information included with this notice is submitted as Trade Secret / Confidential Business Information and is therefore included as a confidential attachment to this letter. See 15A N.C. Admin. Code 02H.0155(a); N.C. Gen. Stat. § 132-1.2.; N.C. Gen. Stat. § 66-152 (defining "trade secret"). Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions concerning this notice or the trade secret and confidential nature of the information attached. Sincerely, Timothy R. Borris Vice President - Operations Encl. Trade Secret / Confidential Business Information TRADE SECRET CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION Attachment to Hoover Treated Wood Products' Notice of Planned Changes dated October 26, 2018 This facility plans to change its wood treatment processes, which could alter the nature of pollutants discharged in accordance with the facility's NPDES Permit. Sometime after November 1, 2018, the facility will stop using Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) and Chromium Copper Arsenic (CCA) for its wood treatment operations and transition to treating wood with a custom oil -based treatment using primarily copper naphthenate. The transition is expected to be completed and the new custom treatment operations are expected to resume by early 2019. No other significant changes are anticipated at this time. As noted in the pending renewal application dated June 3, 2015, the drip pad at the treating pad was designed and constructed in accordance with EPA's Subpart W standards. The facility operations and layout, and particularly the drip pad operations and layout, will not change, except that these new, oil -based compounds will be used in the place of MCA and CCA. Material Safety Data Sheets for the constituents related to the new oil -based compounds are attached and marked Trade Secret 1 Confidential Business Information. We do not anticipate needing to make any changes to the SWPPP in connection with these changes.

Please review the draft very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the condition$ and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's currenf'perinit: _,.. Analytical monitoring changes: 1. Analytical monitoring parameters, Arsenic, Chromium, Copper, Ammonia, BOD, COD and TSS have been maintained in this permit.. 2, pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event.- If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2. 4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase'record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. If the sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately. institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. - 5. You are required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative storm events as defined in Parf Il Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative outfall status. 6. You are responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5.

The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in this permit, however.) 8. VehicIe maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and qualitative monitoring. Monitoring for TPH has replaced Oil & Grease. This requirement appears in all Individual Stormwater permits, however it only applies to facilities that do vehicle maintenance. If the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the permitted timeframe then the requirements shall apply. Other permit changes: !! 1 1. Additional guidance is provided aibo-,at the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential poIIutants in each outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant spills that have occurred in the, past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section A. I - 2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part Il Section A. More details regarding secondary containment are provided. 3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in -Part II Section A. The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not contain non-stormwater discharges. 4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater management controls as specified in Part II Section A. 5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and activities are not expo:-,ed to precipitatian or runoff as described in 40 CFR §122.26(g), the _ facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit :�yuirements. Additional information is provided in Part I Section A. 6. In addition to submitting two signed copies of DMRs to Central Files, a separate signed Annual Summary DMR copy must be submitted to the local DWQ Regional Office by March 1 of each year. Please submit any comments to me no laterthan thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft. Comments should be sent to the address listed at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are received from the public or from you, this permit will likely be issued in about two months.. If you have any questions or comments concerning this draft permit, contact me at (919) 807-6368 or brian.lo",ther@ncdenr.gov Sincerely, Brian Lowther Environmental Engineer Stormwater Permitting Unit cc: Raleigh Regional Office Stormwater Permitting Unit Attachments: Draft NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000512 2 NCS000512 ADDENDUM —August 26, 2010 The draft permit was revised prior to public notice based on the recommendations of the RRO and their desire to not remove Chromium, Arsenic and Ammonia from the permit. The RRO had concerns about removing the monitoring because of the possibility that residuals of these parameters will continue to show up in stormwater. Since the monitoring does show some Chromium, Arsenic, and Ammonium in the sampling the reviewer thinks it is reasonable to maintain the monitoring. If the sampling shows values under the benchmarks for the next permit term then the parameters should be removed from the monitoring. The regional office also expressed the desire to continue monitoring to establish ad at abase of values in order to learn something about the impact of the new chemical regime in order to better understand the industry and the effects of process control changes. The reviewer does not think the data will be used for this in the future. All the wood treatment facilities have individual permits and they all have different sampling. Only a couple sites have data for arsenic and chromium. The RRO questions the ammonia benchmark of 19.9 mg/1 from the expired permit. This number has been updated to 7.2 mg/I for the renewed permit. —BCL Page 9 of 9 RANDOLPH COLINTY REGISTER OF DEEDS -The following is an unofficial converted record which has not been vard ed,An official copy maybe obt lined at theRegisler of C STATE OF NORT11 CAROLINA s COUNTY OF' RJ1NpOLDH I,• ��zi�.L Z• ✓'+L� ,'a'.Natary Public' id and y, ' for 'the County en_d State aforesaid, do horeby certify that w d7avi rt' StPAman _ __ __ pireonaily came 6efore'me � EMS: day and acknowledged that he is Secretary of w _NORTIi C/LROLINA-'ZOO IACIOAL -SOCIETY.- INC , and than by .authority -duly given andas 'an act' of F' w '?

The intent of this letter is to apply for a renewal for the stormwater discharge permit covering Coastal Treated Products, in Weldon, N.C. under NPDES Permit NCS000512. I have enclosed the supplemental information required along with the renewal application form with corrections. Coastal Treated Products Company's Weldon, North Carolina facility is a Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) wood treating facility. The plant site covers an area of approximately 7 acres. Approximately 2 acres consists of impervious surfaces such as the roofs of the buildings and paved roads. The remainder of the industrial portion of the site is gravel and earthen/grassed lumber yards and driveways. Materials stored outdoors consist primarily of southern yellow pine lumber and pressure treated lumber. During plant operations material handling equipment such as forklifts and other types of heavy equipment are also exposed to storm water. The site is drained by a series of ditches that flow to primary ditches located along the western edge of the property. This ditch flows through a culvert under a road and into a 9-acre pond and a 2-acre pond that are connected together, these serve as retention ponds. The 2-acre pond flows over a spillway and into a swamp, which eventually feeds Chockyotte Creek. Chockyotte Creek flows into the Roanoke River. The drip pad at the treating pad is approximately 14,317 square feet. The pad was designed and constructed in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency's Subpart W standard. Any rain or water that falls onto the drip pad is recovered, stored in tanks within containment areas and reused in the treating process. Chemicals used in the treating process are located within the confines of the wood treatment building. The containment area of the building is designed to hold 110 percent of the volume of the largest tank. The treating process generates a certain amount of hazardous waste. This waste is stored in drums and transported off -site by proper licensed transporters and disposers of hazardous waste. A current Site Map from the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan can be found in Appendix A. 9 Summary of Analytical Monitoring results: Outfall Date PH Arsenic Chromium Copper BOD COD Anunonia Suspended Rainfall No. Nitrogen Solids Amount UG/L UG/L UG/L MG/L MG/L MG/L MG Inches 1 9/22/09 7 63 68 564 13 17 1.11 686 .48 1 5/5/09 6.9 22 11 545 21 63 .95 29 1.38 1 11/4/08 7.2 24 9 624 22 53 1.45 27 .45 1 4/28/08 7.1 147 280 2194 14 27 1.96 580 .65 1 11/26/07 7.1 137 651 3205 53 143 2.12 2360 .15 1 5/9/07 7 121 22 2209 20 253 1.28 333 .19 1 9/19/06 7.5 72 <5 <10 19 39 .91 227 .36 1 4/22/06 7.1 61 57 995 96 .79 72 Summary of Visual Monitoring results: Outfall Date Color Odor Clarity Floating Suspended Foam Oil No. Solids Solids Sheen 1 9/22t09 Gray Tint None Fair Very Few Very Few NO NO 1 5/5/09 Gray Tint None Good None None NO NO 1 11/4/08 Clear None Good None None NO NO 1 4/28/08 Mod.

This list must include: toxic chemicals, listed in 40 CFR 372 that have been discharged to storm water as reported on EPA Form R and oil or hazardous substance in excess of reportable quantities, 40 CFR 110, 117 or 302. Table 3-2 should be used to record the lists described above and will be updated if any spill incidents occur. Good housekeeping is an integral part of Coastal Treated Products Company's storm water pollution prevention program. As such, the following procedures will be implemented. • Regular employee training will be established to keep employees up to date with applicable spill response methods. • Good housekeeping goals are to be maintained on a daily basis and regular inspections will be performed by management. • Employee interaction and ideas will be promoted through an annual meeting. 2 0 ' ,r Employee training is an integral component of the Storm Water Pollution Plan. The annual training program will consist of the following items. • Description of storm water • Review of facility drainage • Review of potential pollutants • Indications of pollution • Preventative measures • Facility response to indications of pollution The only change Coastal Treated Products Weldon treating facility has made would be the usage of a different treating chemical. Coastal was using an ACQ compound to treat lumber, now Coastal is using Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) chemical compound. This change has allowed us to cut the amount of chemical used in the treating process. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Compliance Schedule: N/A. Basis for Monitoring: Although company switched from CCA to ACQ in 10/2003, monitoring for Arsenic (As) and Chromium (Cr) should continue until enough data to support discontinued monitoring for these metals. Copper (Cu) is still present in the treatment solution, and levels were well over the benchmark. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were above EPA's multi -sector permit benchmark for this industry and should also be monitored. Ammonia monitoring included because ACQ is a quaternary ammonium compound, along with pH (important to interpreting ammonia data). Also recommend BOD5 and COD monitoring for at least first permit term. All monitoring was set to Semi -Annual (spring and fall). This approach is consistent with the Division's revised strategy for stormwater monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater f discharge sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. In addition, benchmark values were incorporated into the permit. r ,f These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as + :r r guidelines for the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan y Q L I (SPPP). If any measurements exceed benchmark values, the facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its BMPs, review and/or update its SPPP, and document any efforts to address stormwater contamination l (see Part 11, Sec.

Both sites were covered by NCG040249 (the old Timber -Chip Mill general permit) and then by NCG210249 (though NCG21 specifically excludes wood preserving). In October 2004, the wood treating plant separated from the company (which had since changed its name to Coastal Forest Resources Company, or CFRC), prompting transfer of the treating plant from the sawmill. After the division, it became apparent the wood treating plant required a separate, individual stormwater permit (see attached letter from CTPC). The facility's stormwater is discharged to Chockoyotte Creek, which is not on the 303(d) list of impaired waters. The Roanoke River Basinwide Plan mentions that this creek is impacted by collection system overflows in Roanoke Rapids and the potential for serious habitat degradation as this urban area grows. The Plan also advises that stormwater issues need to be addressed by the town of Weldon (where this plant is located), a municipality not automatically covered by Phase II rules. The treating plant switched from CCA (chromated copper arsenate) to ACQ (ammoniacal copper quaternary) treatment in Fall 2003 (letter received 10/ 14/2004 from T. Evans says switch was November 2004, but the year is incorrect). The drip pad was pressure washed, and runoff was shipped off -site to a lumber treating plant still using CCA. That pad is also part of a closed -loop system; all rainfall is collected and used in the treating process. Analytical Monitoring: One-time sample results on the application show arsenic and chromium concentrations in stormwater were below benchmark levels of 340 µg/1 and 1022 µg/l, respectively (Note —the EPA Multi -Sector permit for this industry includes an As benchmark that is more stringent-168.54 µg/l, which has been incorporated in the draft permit). Recommend that sampling for As and Cr continue until enough data to support discontinued monitoring for these metals (residues present at the site?). Copper concentrations were over 85 times higher than the '/2 FAV of 7.3 µgA, and Cu is still used in the wood treating chemicals. While copper monitoring is not normally included in stormwater permits (it is a ubiquitous metal, and few streams in NC have problems with Cu), Cu monitoring will be important to evaluating BMP effectiveness at this site. The reviewer recommends EPA's copper benchmark for this industry (63.6 µg/l) for the permit; however, future reviewers should consider lower measured concentrations that are still above the more stringent '/2 FAV (7.3 µg/1), particularly if any water quality impacts are observed. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were > 1000 mg/l, well above the 100 mg/1 benchmark, and should be monitored. Total Phosphorus (TP) was approaching the 2 mg/1 benchmark (1.42 mg/1); however, because this site does not discharge to nutrient sensitive waters and no nutrient problems were noted for this sub -basin, TP monitoring is not recommended. Ammonia and pH monitoring will also be included; ACQ is a quatemary ammonium compound, and NH3 is a potential chemical discharge (see Environment Canada's National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) information athttp://www.ec.gc.ca/Rdb/nl2ri/2002guidance/Wood2OO2/section4e e.cfm, accessed 7/28/05). Even though it was well below 120 mg/l, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) could be a pollutant of concern regardless ofwhether sawmill operations drain to this outfall (EPA Multi -Sector permit includes COD for Sawmills). Other chemicals or byproducts of ACQ from the treated wood may leach into runoff from the uncovered lumber storage area at the southwestern portion of the property —reviewer recommends monitoring for COD at least the first term to collect sufficient data to rule out as POC.

General Observations: • The site is drained by a series of ditches that flow to primary ditches located along the western edge of the property. This ditch flows through a culvert under a road to a 9 acre pond and 2 acre pond in series. The 2 acre pond flows over a spill way and into a swamp, which eventually feeds Chockeyotte Creek. Chockeyotte Creek flows into the Roanoke River. + Materials stored outside consist primarily of southern yellow pinciumber and pressure treated lumber. During plant operations handling equipment such as forklifts and other types of heavy equipment are also exposed to stormwater. + The drip pad where treating occurs is approximately 14,317 square -feet, The'pad was designed and constructed in accordance with the EPA's Subpart W standard. Any rain th' Aalls onto the drip pad is recovered, stored in tanks within containment areas and reused in the trc:i;ing process. + Chemicals used in the treating process are stored inside the wood treatment building. The containment area of the building is designed to hold 110 percent of the volume of the largest tank.' The treatment process produces some hazardous waste that is stored in drums and transported off -site by proper licensed transporters and disposers of hazardous waste. 3. Impairment: Chockoyotte Creek is not on the 2010 303(d) list of impaired waters. Basinwide Plan mentions Chockoyotte Creek as having habitat degradation caused by impervious surface, impoundment and land clearing. Chockoyotte Creek, from source to Roanoke River (10.6 miles) is Supporting aquatic life due to a Moderate Stress benthic community bioclassificat ion at site NB91. The habitat was severely impacted at this site. Sedimentation, bank erosion, partial shading, inadequate riparian zones and an absence of instream habitat were all noted. It appeared that the stream had once been dammed at the sampling location and there were remains of large concrete blocks and rocks. Although Chockoyotte Creek received a Moderate Stress bioclassification, it has a highly degraded habitat due to urban impacts from the cities of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon. The Roanoke Rapids Sanitary District relocated their discharge pipe from Chockoyotte Creek to the Roanoke River in winter 2004/2005 and received new permit limits. The plan also states DWQ will coitij,ue to' monitor Chockoyotte Creek and the towns of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon are encouraged to develr; p a stormwater program to ✓ address the severe habitat degradation from lack of controlling stormwater runoff. _ 4. Threatened and Endangered: There are no federally protected species however there were a few state threatened species: Alasmidonta undulate (Triangle Floater), Anodonta implicata (Alewife Floater), Lampsilis radiata (Eastern Lampmussel), Leptodea ochracea (Tidewater Mucket) and endangered: Fusconaia masoni (Atlantic Pigtoe). 5. Location: C Stream 6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: Different treating chemical is now used. The facility was using ACQ but now use a Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) compound. This change allowed them to cut the amount of chemical used in the treating process. Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. Values for COD, Copper and TSS are all over the current benchmarks. Copper concentrations were up to thousands of times higher than the %FAV of 7 µg/l. The reviewer recommends maintaining monitoring for Copper. The previous permit set_ the Copper benchmark at EPA's Cu benchmark of 63.6 µgll. The reviewer recommends changing this benchmark to % FAV because this is consistent with other wood treating facilities. 7%ti Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were well above the l00 mg/1 benchmark and should be continued to be monitored. COD has two concentrations over the 120 mg/l benchmark at 253 ing/l and 143 mg/l. BOD had one concentration over the 30 mgll benchmark at 53 mg/l. Monitoring should be continued in the renewal permit for both COD and BOD. Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia had no values over the current benchmarks. The reviewer recommends Page 4 of 8 NCS000512 . . removing monitoring for Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia since none of the parameters are used in the wood treating process anymore. Total Phosphorus was removed during the last renewal because the sample value was below the 2 mg/l benchmark and the site does not discharge to nutrient sensitive waters. 7. Qualitative Monitoring, Notes: Permittee sent results for four observations from 06-09. Gray colors noted frequently, as well as fair clarity noted.

Maintain monitoring for parameters: Copper, TSS, COD and BOD. Remove parameters Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia. See rationale above. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. All analytical monitoring remains at semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples r.: a�.t be taken a minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2, 4. Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative mo,:oring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is_ r�7quired regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and qualitative monitoring. 8.

Prepared by (Signature) —L 2 Date 4.X ld Stormwater Permitting Unit Supervisor 9Date ! fps Bradley Bennett Concurrence by Regional RO Water Quality Regional Office Staff Comments additional pages as n Date & � to RRO offers these considerations for NOT dropping Chromium, Arsenic and Ammonia from the testing: This mill has existed for many years, so there is the possibility that residuals of these parameters will continue to show up in stormwater. Also, there may be inventory in the yard from the old process that contributes pollutants to stormwater. Further, there may, be value in continuing the database for at least the first two or three years into the new permit cycle in order to learn something about the (reduced) impact of the new chemical regime in order to better understand the industry and the effects of process control changes. Assuming several other wood treating facilities have submitted semi-annual test data for the same parameters over time, there may be value in statistically comparing them to grasp the variability within the industry. Finally, we question the ammonia benchmark contained in the expired permit of 19.9 mg/l. This seem unusually high compared to effluent from most wastewater plants of 2.0 mg/l summer and 6.0 mg/l winter. A few are allowed 12.0 mg/l in winter.

General Observations: • The site is drained by a series of ditches that flow to primary ditches located along the western edge of the property. This ditch flows through a culvert under a road to a 9 acre pond and 2 acre pond in series. The 2 acre pond flows over a spill way and into a swamp, which eventually feeds Chockeyotte Creek. Chockeyotte Creek flows into the Roanoke River. • Materials stored -outside consist primarily of southern yellow:pine,iumber and pressure treated lumber. During plant operations handling equipment such as forklifts and other types bf heavy equipment are also exposed to stormwater. . • The drip pad where treating occurs is approximately 14,317 square -feet. The'pad was designed and constructed_in`accordance with the EPA's Subpart W standard. Any rain ffll�,f Tails onto the drip pad'is recovered, stored in tanks within containment areas and reused in the trca;ing process. • Chemicals used in the treating process are stored inside the wood treatment building. The containment area of the building is designed to hold 110 percent of the volume of the largest tank. - The treatment process produces some hazardous waste that is stored in drums and transported off -site by proper licensed transporters and disposers of hazardous waste. Impairment: Chockoyotte Creek is not on the 2010 303(d) list of impaired waters. Basinwide Plan mentions Chockoyotte Creek as having habitat degradation caused by impervious surface, impoundment and land clearing. Chockoyotte Creek, from source to Roanoke River (10.6 miles) is Supporting aquatic life due to a Moderate Stress benthic' community bioclassification at site N1391. The habitat was severely impacted at this site. Sedimentation, bank erosion, partial shading, inadequate riparian zones and an absence of instream habitat were all noted. It appeared that the stream had once been dammed at the sampling location and there were remains of large concrete blocks and rocks. Although Chockoyotte Creek received a Moderate Stress bioclassiftcation, it has a highly degraded habitat due to urban impacts from the cities of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon. The Roanoke Rapids Sanitary District relocated their discharge pipe from Chockoyotte Creek to the Roanoke River in winter 2004/200.5 and received new permit limits. The -plan also states DWQ•will ca:'ithle to monitor Chockoyotte Creek and the towns of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon are encouraged to develyp a stormwater program to J address the severe habitat degradation from lack of controlling stormwater runoff. _ - 4. Threatened and Endangered: There are no federally protected species however there were a few state threatened species: Alasmidonta undulate (Triangle Floater), Anodonta implicate (Alewife Floater), Lampsilis radiata (Eastern Lampmussel), Leptodea ochracea (Tidewater Mucket) and endangered: Fusconaia masoni (Atlantic Pigtoe). 5. Location: C Stream 6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: Different treating chemical is now used. The facility was using ACQ but now use a Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) compound. This change allowed them to cut the amount of chemical used in the treating process. Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. Values for COD, Copper and TSS are all over the current benchmarks. Copper concentrations were up to thousands of times higher than the %z FAV of 71tg/1. The reviewer recommends maintaining monitoring for Copper. The previous permit set -the Copper benchmark at EPA's Cu benchmark of 63.6 Etg/1. The reviewer recommends changing this benchmark to''/z FAV because this is consistent with other wood treating facilities. Q. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were well above the 100 mg/1 benchmark and should be continued to be monitored. COD has two concentrations over the 120 mg/l benchmark at 253 ing/l and 143 mg/l. BOD had one concentration over the 30 mg/l benchmark at 53 mg/l. Monitoring should be continued in the renewal permit for both COD and BOD. Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia had no values over the current benchmarks. The reviewer recommends Page 4 of 8 NCS000512 removing monitoring for Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia since none of the parameters are used in the wood treating process anymore. Total Phosphorus was removed during the last renewal because the sample value was below the 2 mg/l benchmark and the site does not discharge to nutrient sensitive waters. 7. Qualitative Monitoring: Permittee sent results for four observations from 06-09. Gray colors noted frequently, as well as fair clarity noted. Most of the observations show no signs of pollutants such as odor, suspended solids, floating solids, foam, or oil sheen.

Maintain monitoring for parameters: Copper, TSS, COD and BOD. Remove parameters Arsenic, Chromium, and Arrimonia. See rationale above. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. 'All analytical monitoring remains at semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally;7samples n<v rt be taken a minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2. 4. Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee-ta increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management.Practiees (BMPs) in a tiered program. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative mo � " ring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative inonitoring.is ;squired regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and qualitative monitoring. 8. Annual summary DMR will be due to RO in March of every year.. Discussions with permittee: Rick Farnham, 252-536-4211, 8/18/2010 1. Are there are Arsenic, Chromium, or an ammonium product stored onsite? None of these products are on site any more. 2.' The analytical monitoring reports show values over the benchmatks for copper, BOD, COD, and TSS. Do you have an idea why? He was not sure why but noted that the copper values have gone down in 2008 and 2009. Page 7 of 8 NCS000512 Recommendations: Based on the documents reviewed, the application information submitted on May 14, 2010 sufficient to issue an Individual Stormwater Permit. Prepared by (Signature) _ !�/^� �- •y Date a za Storrwater Permitting Unit Supervisor Date / r Bradley Bennett Concurrence by Regional Office Date �1 v RO Water Quality Regional Office Staff Comments (artaclladditional pages as cen essary) 2 RRO offers these considerations for NOT dropping Chromium, Arsenic and Ammonia from the testing: This mill has existed for many years, so there is the possibility that residuals of these parameters will continue to show up in stormwater. Also, there may be inventory in the yard from the old process that contributes pollutants to stormwater. Further, there may be value in continuing the database for at least the First two or three years into the new permit cycle in order to learn something about the (reduced) impact of the new chemical regime in order to better understand the industry and the effects of process control changes. Assuming several other wood treating facilities have submitted semi-annual test data for the same parameters over time, there may be value in statistically comparing them to grasp the variability within the industry. Finally, we question the ammonia benchmark contained in the expired permit of 19.9 mg/l. This seem unusually high compared to effluent from most wastewater plants of 2.0 mg/1 summer and 6.0 mg/1 winter. A few are allowed 12.0 mgll in winter.

The intent of this letter is to apply for a renewal for the stormwater discharge permit covering Coastal Treated Products, in Weldon, N.C. under NPDES Permit NCS000512. I have enclosed the supplemental information required along with the renewal application form with corrections. Coastal Treated Products Company's Weldon, North Carolina facility is a Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) wood treating facility. The plant site covers an area of approximately 7 acres. Approximately 2 acres consists of impervious surfaces such as the roofs of the buildings and paved roads. The remainder of the industrial portion of the site is gravel and earthen/grassed lumber yards and driveways. Materials stored outdoors consist primarily of southern yellow pine lumber and pressure treated lumber. During plant operations material handling equipment such as forklifts and other types of heavy equipment are also exposed to storm water. The site is drained by a series of ditches that flow to primary ditches located along the western edge of the property. This ditch flows through a culvert under a road and into a 9-acre pond and a 2-acre pond that are connected together, these serve as retention ponds. The 2-acre pond flows over a spillway and into a swamp, which eventually feeds Chockyotte Creek. Chockyotte Creek flows into the Roanoke River. The drip pad at the treating pad is approximately 14,317 square feet. The pad was designed and constructed in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency's Subpart W standard. Any rain or water that falls onto the drip pad is recovered, stored in tanks within containment areas and reused in the treating process. Chemicals used in the treating process are located within the confines of the wood treatment building. The containment area of the building is designed to hold 110 percent of the volume of the largest tank. The treating process generates a certain amount of hazardous waste. This waste is stored in drums and transported off -site by proper licensed transporters and disposers of hazardous waste.

This list must include: toxic chemicals, listed in 40 CFR 372 that have been discharged to storm water -as reported on EPA Form R and oil or hazardous substance in excess of reportable quantities, 40 CFR 110, 117 or 302. Table 3-2 should be used to record the lists described above and will be updated if any spill incidents occur. Good housekeeping is an integral part of Coastal Treated Products Company's storm water pollution prevention program. As such, the following procedures will be implemented. • Regular employee training will be established to keep employees up to date with applicable spill response methods. • Good housekeeping goals are to be maintained on a daily basis and regular inspections will be performed by management. • Employee interaction and ideas will be promoted through an annual meeting. 2 Employee training is an integral component of the Storm Water Pollution Plan. The annual training program will consist of the following items. • Description of storm water • Review of facility drainage • Review of potential pollutants • Indications of pollution • Preventative measures • Facility response to indications of pollution The only change Coastal Treated Products Weldon treating facility has made would be the usage of a different treating chemical. Coastal was using an ACQ compound to treat lumber, now Coastal is using Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) chemical compound. This change has allowed us to cut the amount of chemical used in the treating process. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Type of Activity: Industrial —Wood Treatment Plant. SIC Code (if applicable): 2491 (Wood. Preserving) Receiving Streams: UT to Chockoyotte Creek (index no. 23-29) River Basins: Roanoke River, Sub -basin 03-02-08 Stream Classification: C Proposed Permit Requirements: See attached draft permit. Compliance Schedule: N/A. Basis for Monitoring: Although company switched from CCA to ACQ in 10/2003, monitoring for Arsenic (As) and Chromium (Cr) should continue until enough data to support discontinued monitoring for these metals. Copper (Cu) is still present in the treatment solution, and levels were well over the benchmark. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were above EPA's multi -sector permit benchmark for this industry and should also be monitored. Ammonia monitoring included because ACQ is a quaternary ammonium compound, along with pH (important to interpreting ammonia data). Also recommend BODS and COD monitoring for at least first permit term. All monitoring was set to Semi -Annual (spring and fall). This approach is consistent with the Division's revised strategy for rry� stormwater monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater ! discharge sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. In addition, benchmark values were incorporated into the permit. These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan 4i (SPPP). If any measurements exceed benchmark values, the facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its BMPs, review and/or update its j ti SPPP, and document any efforts to address stormwater contamination (see Part II, Sec. B & D). Basii for Other Requirements: N/A. Response Requested by (Date): October 20, 2005 N. C.

In October 2004, the wood treating plant separated from the company (which had since changed its name to Coastal Forest Resources Company, or CFRQ, prompting transfer of the treating plant from the sawmill. After the division, it became apparent the wood treating plant required a separate, individual stormwater permit (see attached letter from CTPC). The facility's stormwater is discharged to Chockoyotte Creek, which is not on the 303(d) list of impaired waters. The Roanoke River Basinwide PIan mentions that this creek is impacted by collection system overflows in Roanoke Rapids and the potential for serious habitat degradation as this urban area grows. The Plan also advises that stormwater issues need to be addressed by the town of Weldon (where this plant is located), a municipality not automatically covered by Phase II rules. The treating plant switched from CCA (chromated copper arsenate) to ACQ (ammoniacaI copper quaternary) treatment in Fall 2003 (letter received 10/ 14/2004 from T. Evans says switch was November 2004, but the year is incorrect). The drip pad was pressure washed, and runoff was shipped off site to a lumber treating plant still using CCA. That pad is also part of a closed -loop system; all rainfall is collected and used in the treating process. Analytical Monitoring: One-time sample results on the application show arsenic and chromium concentrations in stormwater were below benchmark levels of 340 µg/l and 1022 µg/l, respectively (Note —the EPA Multi -Sector permit for this industry includes an As benchmark that is more stringent--168.54 µg/l, which has been incorporated in the draft permit). Recommend that sampling for As and Cr continue until enough data to support discontinued monitoring for these metals (residues present at the site?). Copper concentrations were over 85 times higher than the FAV of 7.3 µg/l, and Cu is still used in the wood treating chemicals. While copper monitoring is not normally included in stormwater permits (it is a ubiquitous metal, and few streams in NC have problems with Cu), Cu monitoring will be important to evaluating BMP effectiveness at this site. The reviewer recommends EPA's copper benchmark for this industry (63.6 µg/1) for the permit; however, future reviewers should consider lower measured concentrations that are still above the more stringent 'h FAV (7.3 µg/1), particularly if any water quality impacts are observed. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were > 1000 mg/l, well above the 100 mg/1 benchmark, and should be monitored. Total Phosphorus (TP) was approaching the 2 mg/I benchmark (1.42 mg/1); however, because this site does not discharge to nutrient sensitive waters and no nutrient problems were noted for this sub -basin, TP monitoring is not recommended. Ammonia and pH monitoring will also be included; ACQ is a quaternary ammonium compound, and NH3 is a potential chemical discharge (see Environment Canada's National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) information at httn://www.ec.gc.ca/12db/npri/2002guidance/Wood2002/section4c ejm, accessed 7/28/05). Even though it was well below 120 mg/l, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) could be a pollutant of concern regardless of whether sawmill operations drain to this outfall (EPA Multi -Sector permit includes COD for Sawmills). Other chemicals or byproducts of ACQ from the treated wood may leach into runoff from the uncovered lumber storage area at the southwestern portion of the property —reviewer recommends monitoring for COD at least the first term to collect sufficient data to rule out as POC. BOD5 was 19 mg/1—also not enough data to determine if levels routinely below 30 mg/1 benchmark; therefore„recommendBOD5 monitoring as well.

Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) are also ubiquitous substances that will not generally be monitored. See April 1994 Memo re: Stormwater Permit Development from C. Sullins. Note, this site uses Ammoniacal Copper Quaternary (ACQ) in its treatment processes; therefore, copper monitoring with EPA's industry -specific benchmark is recommended. 9/12/2005 Page 2 f� • 0 • 0 1* go • 64820 Federal Register/Vol. 65, No. 210/Monday,ober 30, 2000 / Notices TABLE A-1.--SECTOR-SPECIFIC NUMERIC LIMITATIONS AND BENCHMARK MONITORING [Sector of permit affected/supplemental requirements] Subsector (Discharge may be subject to requirements for more than one sector/subsector) Parameter Benchmark monitoring cut off concentration Numeric ilmltationz ' General Sawmills and Planning Mills (SIC 2421) ...........

Significant materials should be identified by chemical name, form (e.g., powder, liquid, etc.), and type of container or treatment unit. Indicate any materials treated, stored, or disposed of together. "Signifi- cant materials" includes, but is not limited to: raw materials; fuels; materials such as solvents, detergents, and plastic pellets; finished materials such as metallic products; raw materials used in food processing or produc- tion; hazardous substances designated under Section 101(14) of CERCtA: any chemical the facility is re- quired to report pursuant to Section 313 of Title III of SARA; fertilizers; pesticides; and waste products such as ashes, slag and sludge that have the potential to be released with storm water discharges. Item IV-C For each outfall, structural controls Include structures which enclose material handling or storage areas, covering materials, berms, dikes, or diversion ditches around manufacturing, production, storage or treat. ment units, retention ponds, etc. Nonstructural controls include practices such as spill prevention plans, employee training, visual inspections, preventive maintenance, and housekeeping measures that are used to prevent or minimize the potential for releases of pollutants. EPA Form 9510-2F (11-90) l - 2 2F-7 Item V - 9 Provide a certification that all outfalls that should contain storm water discharges associated with industrial activity have been tested or evaluated for the presence of non -storm water discharges which are not covered by an NPDES permit. Tests for such non -storm water discharges may include smoke tests, fluorometric dye tests, analysis of accurate schematics, as well as other appropriate tests. Part B must include a description of the m&Wbsed, the date of any testing, and the onsite drainage points that were directly observed during a test. Ail noh-storm water discharges must be identified in a Form 2C or Form 2E which must accompany this application (see beginning of instructions under section titled "Who Must File Form 2F" for a description of when Form 2C and Form 2E must be submitted). Item V1 Provide a description of existing information regarding the history of significant leaks or spills of toxic or hazardous pollutants at the facility in the last three years. Item VII-A, B, and C These items require you to collect and report data on the pollutants discharged for each of your outfalls. Each part of this item addresses a different set of pollutants and must be completed in accordance with the specific instructions for that part. The following general instructions apply to the entire item. General Instructions Part A requires you to report at least one analysis for each pollutant listed. Parts B and C require you to report analytical data in two ways. For some pollutants addressed in Parts B and C, if you know or have reason to know that the pollutant is present in your discharge, you may be required to list the pollutant and test (sample and analyze) and report the levels of the pollutants in your discharge. For all other pollutants addressed in Parts B and C, you must list the pollutant if you know or have reason to know that the pollutant is present in the discharge, and either report quantitative data for the pollutant or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to be discharged. (See specific instructions on the form and below for Parts A through C.) Base your determination that a pollutant is present in or absent from your discharge on your knowledge of your raw materials, material management practices, maintenance chemicals, history of spills and releases, inter- mediate and final products and byproducts, and any previous analyses known to you of your effluent or similar effluent. A. Sampling: The collection of the samples for the reported analyses should be supervised by a person experienced in performirig sampling of industrial wastewater or storm water discharges. You may con- tact EPA or yourState permitting authority for detailed guidance on sampling techniques and for answers to specific questions. Any specific requirements contained in the applicable analytical methods should be followed for sample containers, sample preservation, holding times, the collection of duplicate sam- ples, etc. The time when you sample should be representative, to the extent feasible, of your treatment system operating properly with no system upsets- Samples should be collected from the center of the flow channel, where turbulence is at a maximum, at a site specified in your present permit, or at any site adequate for the collection of a representative sample. For pH, temperature, cyanide, total phenols, residual chlorine, oil and grease, and fecal coliform, grab samples taken during the first 30 minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge must be used (you are not required to analyze a flow -weighted composite for these parameters). For all other pollutants both a grab sample collected during the first 30 minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge and a flow -weighted composite sample must be analyzed. However, a minimum of one grab sample may be taken for effluents from holding ponds or other impoundments with a retention period of greater than 24 hours. All samples shall be collected from the discharge resulting from a storm event that is greater than 0,1 inches and at least 72 hours from the previously measurable (greater than 0.1 inch rainfall) storm event. Where feasible, the variance in the duration of the event and the total rainfall of the event should not exceed 50 percent from the average or median rainfall event in that area. A grab sample shall be taken during the first thirty minutes of the discharge (or as soon thereafter as practicable), and a flow -weighted composite shall he taken for the entire event or for the first three hours of the event. Grab and composite samples are defined as follows: EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90) 1-3 2F-8 ' '.. Grab sane. An ind'isal sample of at least 100 milli* collectOduring the first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge. This sample is to be analyzed separately from the composite sample. Flow -Weighted Composite sample: A flow -weighted composite sample may be taken with a con- tinuous sampler that proportions the amount of sample collected with the flow rate or as a combina- tion of a minimum of three sample aliquots taken In each hour of discharge for the entire event or for the first three hours of the event, with each aliquot being at least 100 milliliters and collected with a minimum period of fifteen minutes between aliquot collections. The composite must be flow propor- tional; either the time interval between each aliquot or the volume of each aliquot must be propor- tional to either the stream flow at the time of sampling or the total stream flow since the collection of the previous aliquot. Aliquots may be collected manually or automatically. Where GC/MS Volatile Organic Analysis (VOA) Is required, aliquots must be combined in the laboratory immediately before analysis. Only one analysis for the composite sample Is required. Data from samples taken in the past may be used, provided that: All data requirements are met; Sampling was done no more than three years before submission; and All data are representative of the present discharge. Among the factors which would cause the data to be unrepresentative are significant changes in produc- tion level, changes in raw materials, processes, or final products, and changes in storm water treatment. When the Agency promulgates new analytical methods in 40 CFR Part 136, EPA will provide information as to when you should use the new methods to generate data on your discharges. Of course, the Director may request additional information, including current quantitative data, if they determine it to be necessary to assess your discharges. The Director may allow or establish appropriate site -specific sam- pling procedures or requirements, including sampling locations, the season in which the sampling takes place, the minimum duration between the previous measurable storm event and'the storm event sam- pled, the minimum or maximum level of precipitation required for an appropriate storm event, the form of precipitation sampled (snow melt or rainfall), protocols for collecting samples under 40 CFR Part 136, and additional time for submitting data on a case -by -case basis. 13. Reporting: All levels must be reported as concentration and as total mass. You may report some or ail of the required data by attaching separate sheets of paper instead of filling out pages VII-1 and VII-2 if the separate sheets contain all the required information In a format which is consistent with pages V11-1 and VII-2 in spacing and in Identification of pollutants and columns. Use the following abbreviations in the columns headed "Units. - Concentration ppm parts per million mg/1 milligrams per liter ppb parts per billion . ug/1 micrograms per liter kg kilograms Mass Ibs pounds ton tons (English tons) mg milligrams g grams T tonnes (metric tons) All reporting of values for metals must be in terms of "total recoverable metal," unless: (1) An applicable, promulgated effluent limitation or standard specifies the limitation -for the metal in dissolved, valent, or total form; or (2) All approved analytical methods for the metal inherently measure only its -dissolved form (e.g., hexavalent chromium); or (3) The permitting authority has determined that in establishing case -by -case limitations it is neces- sary to express the limitations on the metal in dissolved, valent,"or total form to carry out the provi- sions of the CWA. If you measure only one grab sample and one flow -weighted composite sample fora given outfall, complete only the "Maximum Values" columns and insert "1" into the "Number of Storm Events Sampled" column. The permitting authority may require you to conduct additional analyses to further characterize your discharges. EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90) 1-4 2i'-9 • i r If you measure more than one value for a grab sample or a flow -weighted composite sample for a given outfall and those values are representative of your discharge, you must report them. You must.describe your method of testing and data analysis. You also must determine the average of all values within the last year and report the concentration mass under the "Average Values" columns, and the total number of storm events sampled under the "Number of Storm Events Sampled" columns. C. Analysis: You must use test methods promulgated in 40 CFR Part 136; however, if none has been promulgated for a particular pollutant, you may use any suitable method for measuring the level of the pollutant in your discharge provided that you submit a description of the method or a reference to a published method. Your description should include the sample holding time, preservation techniques, and the quality control measures which you used. If you have two or more substantially identical outfalls, you may request permission from your permitting authority to sample and analyze only one outfall and submit the results of the analysis for other substantially identical outfalls. If your request is granted by the permitting authority, on a separate sheet attached to the application form, identify which outfall you did test, and describe why the outfalls which you did not test are substantially identical to the outfall which you did test. Part Vll-A Part VII-A must be completed by all applicants for all outfalls who must complete Form 2F. Analyze a grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge and flow -weighted composite samples for all pollutants In this Part, and report the results except use only grab samples for pH and oil and grease. See discussion in General Instructions to Item VII for definitions of grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes of discharge and flow -weighted composite sample. The "Average Values" column is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Part VII-B List all pollutants that are limited in an effluent guideline which the facility is subject to (see 40 CFR Subchap- ter N to determine which pollutants are'limited in effluent guidelines) or any pollutant listed in the facility's NPDES permit for its process wastewater (if the facility is operating under an existing NPDES permit). Com- plete one table for each outfall. See discussion in General instructions to item VII for definitions of grab sample collected during thet first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of discharge and flow - weighted composite sample. The "Average Values" column Is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Analyze a grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes of the discharge and flow -weighted composite samples for all pollutants in this Part, and report the results, except as provided in the General Instructions. Part Vll-C Part VII-C must be completed by all applicants for all outfalls which discharge storm water associated with industrial activity, or that EPA is evaluating for designation as a significant contributor of pollutants to waters of the United States, or as contributing to a violation of a water quality standard. Use both a grab sample and a composite sample for all pollutants you analyze for In this part except use grab samples for residual chlorine and fecal coliform. The "Average Values" column Is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Part C requires you to address the pollutants in Table 2F-2, 2F-3, and 2F-4 for each outfall. Pollu- tants in each of these Tables are addressed differently. Table 2F-2: For each outfall, list all pollutants in Table 2F-2 that you know or have reason to believe are discharged (except pollutants previously listed in Part VII-B). If a pollutant Is limited in an effluent guideline limitation which the facility is subject to (e.g., use of TSS as an indicator to control the discharge of iron and aluminum), the pollutant should be listed in Part VII-B. If a pollutant in table 2F-2 is indirectly limited by an effluent guideline limitation through an indicator, you must analyze for it and report data in Part VII-C. For other pollutants listed in Table 2F-2 (those not limited directly or indirectly by an effluent limitation guideline), that you know or have reason to believe are discharges, you must.either report quantitative data or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to be discharged. Table 2F-3: For each outfall; list all pollutants in Table 2F-3 that you know or have reason to believe are . discharged. For every pollutant in Table 2F-3 expected to be discharged in concentrations of 10 ppb or greater, you must submit quantitative data. For acrolein, acryionitrile, 2,4 dinitrophenol, and 2-methyl-4,6 dinitrophenol, you must submit quantitative data if any of these four pollutants is expected to be discharged EPA Form 3510-2F t11-90) 1-5 2F-la in concentrations of 100 ppb or greater. For every pollutant expected to be discharged in concentrations less than 10 ppb (or 100 ppb for the four pollutants listed above), then you must either submit quantitative data or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to be discharged. Small Business Exemption - If you are a "small business,' you are exempt from the reporting requirements for the organic toxic pollutants listed In Table 2F-3. There are two ways in which you can qualify as a "small business". If your facility is a coal mine, and if your probable total annual production is less than 100,000 tons per year, you may submit past production data or estimated future production (such as a schedule of esti- mated total production under 30 CFR 795.14(c)) instead of conducting analyses for the organic toxic pollu- tants. If ,your facility is not a coal mine, and ff your gross total annual sales for the most recent three years average less than $100,000 per year (in second quarter 1980 dollars), you may submit sales data for those years Instead of conducting analyses for the organic toxic pollutants. The production or safes data must be for the facility which is the source of the discharge. The data should not be limited to production or sales for the process or processes which contribute to the discharge, unless those are the only processes at your facility. For sales data, in situations.invotvfng intracorporate transfer of goods and services, the transfer price per unit should approximate market prices for those goods and services as closely as possible. Sales figures for years after 1980 should be indexed to the second quarter of 1980 by using the gross national product price deflator (second quarter of 1980 = 100). This index Is' avallable in National Income and Product Ac- counts of the United States (Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis). Table 2F-4: For each outfall, list any pollutant in Table 2F-4 that you know or believe to be present in the discharge and explain why you believe it to be present. No analysis is required, but if you have analytical data, you must report them. Note: Under 40 CFR I i7.12(a)(2), certain discharges of hazardous substances (listed at 40 CFR 177.21 or 40 CFR 302.4) may be exempted from the requirements of section 311 of CWA, which establishes reporting requirements, civil pehalties, and liability for cleanup costs for spills of oil- and hazardous substances. A discharge of a particular substance may be exempted if the origin, source, and amount of the discharged substances are identified in the NPDES permit application or in the permit, if the permit contains a requirement for treatment of the discharge, and if the.treatment is in place. To apply for an exclusion of the discharge of any hazardous substance from the requirements of section 311, _attach addi- tional sheets of paper to your form, setting forth the following information: 1. The substance and the amount of each substance which may be discharged. 2. The origin and source of the discharge of the substance. 3. The treatment which is to be provided for the discharge by: a. An onsite treatment system separate from any treatment system treating your normal dis- charge; b. A treatment system designed to treat your normal discharge and which is additionally capable of treating the amount of the substance identified under paragraph 1 above; or c. Any combination of the above. See 40 CFR 117.12(a)(2) and (c), published on August 29, 1979, in 44 FR 50766, or contact your Regional Office (Table 1 on Form 1, Instructions), for further Information on exclusions from section 311. Part ViI-D If sampling is conducted during more than one storm event, you only need to report the information re- quested in Part VII-D for the storm event(s) which resulted in any maximum pollutant concentration reported in Part VII-A, VII-B, or VII-C. Provide flow measurements or estimates of the flow rate, and the total amount of discharge for the storm event(s) sampled, the method of flow measurement, or estimation. Provide the data and duration of the storm event(s) sampled, rainfall measurements, or estimates of the storm event which generated the sampled runoff and the duration between the storm event sampled and the end of the previous measurable (greater than 0.1 inch rainfall) storm event. Part VII-E List any toxic pollutant listed in Tables 2F-2, 2F-3, or 2F-4 which you currently use or manufacture as an intermediate or final product or byproduct. In addition, if you know or have reason to believe that 2,3,7,8-te- trachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is discharged or if you use or manufacture 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90) ' 1-6 2I=-11 7. acid (2,4,5,-T); 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) propanoic acid (Silvex, 2,4,5,-TP); 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) ethyl. 2,2-dichloropropionate (Erbon); O,O-dimethyl 0-(2,4,5-trichlorphenyl) phosphorothioate (Ronnel); 2,4,5- trichlorophenol (t'CP); or hexachlorophene (HCP); then list TCDD. The Director may waive or modify the requirement if you demonstrate that it would be unduly burdensome to identify each toxic pollutant and the Director has adequate information to issue your permit. You may not claim this information as confidential; however, you do not have to distinguish between use or production of the pollutants or list the amounts. Item VRI Self explanatory. The permitting authority may ask you to provide additional details after your application is received. Item X The Clean Water Act provides for severe penalties for submitting false Information on this application form. Section 309(c) (4) of the Clean Water Act provides that "Any person who knowingly makes any false material statement, representation, or certification in any application, ... shall upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 or by imprisonment for not more than 2 years, or by both. If a conviction of such person is for a violation committed after a first conviction of such person under this paragraph, punishment shall be by a fine of not more than $20,000 per day of violation, or by Imprisonment of not more than 4 years, or by both." 40 CFR Part 122.22 requires the certification to be signed as follows: (A) For a corporation: by a responsible corporate official. For purposes of this section, a responsible corporate official means (i) a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy- or decision - making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operating facilities employing more than 250 persons or having gross annual sales or expenditures exceeding $25,000,000 (in second-quarter 1980 dollars), if authority to sign documents has been as- signed or delegated to the manager in accordance with corporate procedures. Dote: EPA does not require specific assignments or delegation of authority to responsible corporate officers identified in 122.22(a)(1)(i). The Agency will presume that these responsible corporate officers have the requisite authority to sign permit applications unless the corporation has notified the Director to .the contrary. Corporate procedures governing authority to sign permit applications may provide for assignment or delegation to applicable corporate position under 122.22(a)(1)(11) rather than to specific individuals. (B) For a partnership or sole proprietorship: by a general partner or the proprietor, respectively; or (C) For a municipality, State, Federal, or other public agency: by either a principal executive officer or ranking elected official. For purposes of this section, a principal executive officer of a Federal agency includes (i) the chief executive officer of the agency, or (ii) a senior executive officer having responsibility for the overall operations of a principal geographic unit of the agency (e.g., Regional Administrators of EPA).

Could you clarify when the plant started using ACQ? -Does any runoff from operations at the the saw mill co -located with your plant (that is now under a separate permit) drain to stormwater outfall 001? I hope to have the staff report together by the end of the week, which will then go out to the regional office staff for review and comment (this typically takes about a month; we then send the draft permit out to public notice at the same time we send it to you). Thanks so much for your help.

General Observations: i • The site is drained by a series of ditches that flow to primary ditches located along the western edge of the property. This ditch flows through a culvert under a road to a 9 acre pond and 2 acre pond in series. The 2 acre pond flows over a spill way and into a swamp, which eventually feeds Chockeyotte Creek. Chockeyotte Creek flows into the Roanoke River. • Materials stored outside consist primarily of southern yellow pine-himber and pressure treated lumber. During plant operations handling equipment such as forklifts and other types of heavy equipment are also exposed to stormwater. • The drip pad where treating occurs is approximately 14,317 square feet, The'pad was designed and constructed in accordance with the EPA's Subpart W standard. Any rain tli`',,Talls onto the drip pad is recovered, stored in tanks within containment areas and reused in the trr.. ing process. • Chemicals used in the treating process are stored inside the wood treatment building. The containment area of the building is designed to hold 110 percent of the volume of the largest tank. - The treatment process produces some hazardous waste that is stored in drums and transported off -site by proper licensed transporters and disposers of hazardous waste. 3. Irn airment: Chockoyotte Creek is not on the 2010 303(d) list of impaired waters. Basinwide Plan mentions Chockoyotte Creek as having habitat degradation caused by impervious surface, impoundment and land clearing. Chockoyotte Creek, from source to Roanoke River (10.6 miles) is Supporting aquatic life due to a Moderate Stress benthic'community bioclassification at site NB91. The habitat was severely impacted at this site. Sedimentation, bank erosion, partial shading, inadequate riparian zones and an absence of instream habitat were all noted. It appeared that the stream had once been dammed at the sampling location and there were remains of large concrete blocks and rocks. Although Chockoyotte Creek received a Moderate Stress bioclassification, it has a highly degraded habitat due to urban impacts from the cities of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon. The Roanoke Rapids Sanitary District relocated their discharge pipe from Chockoyotte Creek to the Roanoke River in winter 2004/2005 and re66v'ed new permit limits. The plan also states DWQ will contii,ue to monitor Chockoyotte Creek and the towns of Roanoke Rapids and Weldon are encouraged to develr p a stormwater program to address the severe habitat degradation from lack of controlling stormwater runoff. _ 4. Threatened and Endangered: There are no federally protected species however there were a few state threatened species: Alasmidonta undulate (Triangle Floater), Anodonta implicata (Alewife Floater), Lampsilis radiata (Eastern Larrtpmussel), Leptodea ochracea (Tidewater Mucket) and endangered: Fusconaia masoni (Atlantic Pigtoe). 5. Location: C Stream 6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: Different treating chemical is now used. The facility was using ACQ but now use a Micronized Copper Tebuconazole (MCA) compound. This change allowed them to cut the amount of chemical used in the treating process. Analytical MonitoringNotes: See Table 1. Values for COD, Copper and TSS are all over the current benchmarks. Copper concentrations were up to thousands of times higher than the %FAV of 7 µg/l. The reviewer recommends maintaining monitoring for Copper. The previous permit set. the Copper benchmark at EPA's Cu benchmark of 63.6 µg/l. The reviewer recommends changing this benchmark to'/2 FAV because this is consistent with other wood treating facilities. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) concentrations were well above the 100 mg/1 benchmark and should be continued to be monitored. COD has two concentrations over the 120 mg/l benchmark at 253 mg/l and 143 mg/l. BOD had one concentration over the 30 mg/l benchmark at 53 mg/l. Monitoring should be continued in the renewal permit for both COD and BOD. Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia had no values over the current benchmarks. The reviewer recommends Page 4 of 8 N CS000512 removing monitoring for Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia since none of the parameters are used in the wood treating process anymore. Total Phosphorus was removed during the last renewal because the sample value was below the 2 mgrl benchmark and the site does not discharge to nutrient sensitive waters. 7. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Permittee sent results for four observations from 06-09. Gray colors noted frequently, as well as fair clarity noted. Most of the observations show no signs of pollutants such as odor, suspended solids, floating solids, foam, or oil sheen. t Page S of 8 NCS000512 Table 1: Analytical Monitoring Sample Date Precipitation (in) Duration (hours) H Arsenic Chromium er BOD COD Ammonia TSS Benchmark: 6.9 SU Benchmark: 0.36 mg/L Benchmark: 1 mgA- hmark: 501.007mg1L Benchmark: 30 mg/L Benchmark: 120 mg1L Benchmark: . 7.2 mg/L Benchmark: 100 mglL Outtall 001 4/22/2009 7.1 0.061 0.057 96 0.79 14'11 72 9/19/2006 0.36 7.5 0.072 <0.005 <0.010 19 39 _. 0.91 SWO07 0.19 7 0.12%` 0.022 ' 20 1.28 2.12 /26/2007 0.15 7.1 _ 0.137 0.651 4/28/2007 0.65 7.1 0.147 0.28, 14 27 1.96 11/4/2005 0.45 7.2 0.024 0.009 22 53 1.45 27 5/5/2009 1.38 6.9 0.022 0.011 21 63 0.95 29 9/22/2009 0.48 7 0.063 0.068 13 17 1.11 Over Current Benchmark Data Not Collected Page 6of8 f lim NCS000512 Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring: 1. Maintain monitoring for parameters: Copper, TSS, COD and BOD. Remove parameters Arsenic, Chromium, and Ammonia. See rationale above. 2, pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. All analytical monitoring remains at semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples mv.�t be taken a minimum of 60 days apart, as specified in Table 2. 4. Exceedances of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative mor:.,-)ring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part 1I Section B. Qualitative monitoring is _squired regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and qualitative monitoring. 8. Annual summary DMR will be due to RO in March of every year.. Discussions with Ormittee: Rick Farnham, 252-536-4211, 8/18/2010 1.

Sealant Study ACQ Types A, 6, C, and D. The different formulations allow • Technical Guidance flexibility In achieving compatibility with different wood species Use Cancellations Report an Incident and end use applications. All ACQ types contain 2 active Contacts for CCA ingredients which may vary within the following limits: copper Information oxide (620/6-71%), which Is the primary fungicide and insecticide, For More Information and a quaternary ammonium compound (29%-38%), which provides additional fungicide and insect resistance properties. • ACQ-A: Standardized by the American Wood -Preservers' Association (AWPA)' In 1992 and deleted in 2000 due to a lack of use. • ACQ-B: Standardized by the AWPA in 1992 and is primarily used for the treatment of western wood species such as Douglas fir because its ammonia carrier solution allows the ACQ to penetrate into these difficult -to -treat species. This formulation contains 66.7% copper oxide and 33.3% quat as didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC). ACQ-B treated wood has a dark greenish -brown color -that fades:to a-ligliter brown and may have a slight ammonia odor until dry. • ACQ-Q Standardized by the AWPA In 2002, it contains 66.7% copper oxide and 33.3% quat as alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (ADBAC). Ammonia and/or ethanolamine can be used as the carrying solution In this formulation. Wood treated with ACQ-C varies in color that ranges between that of type B and type D. • ACQ-D: Most wood -treating plants in the US generally use the ACQ-D formulation except for much of the west coast. Standardized by the AWPA in 1995, ACQ-D contains 66.7% copper oxide and 33.3% quat as DDAC. Type D differs from type B in that It uses an ethanolamine carrier solution -rather than ammonia. Wood treated with ACQ-D has a lighter greenish -brawn color with'iittie odor. Applications of ACQ Water -based preservatives like ACQ leave a dry, paintable surface. ACQ is registered for use on: lumber, timbers, landscape ties, fence posts, building and utility poles, land, freshwater and marine pilings, sea walls, decking, wood shingles, and other wood structures., 1 The American Wood -Preservers' Association (AWPA) Is the primary standard -setting body for pressure -treated wood. To become standardized by the AWPA, preservative -treated wood must undergo a series of rigorous tests to ensure its durability.

You signed and dated Item V on form 2F-2, but you didn't fill out Part B., where you need to provide a description of the method used to evaluate outfalls for the presence on non-stormwater discharges, and the date that was done. I attached a copy of that page, along with the instructions that talk about it to help. (This documentation is also required to be kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan you'll prepare as part of any stormwater permit). Please forward me this information to complete the application (via e-mail is fine). If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail or call.

Could you outline/box the area for each number? Also, fill in the areas that are paved (such as numbers 5 & 6) with striped lines so it's clear the outlined area is impervious/paved surface.

However, a review of the lbmitted material indicates the application is incomplete and additional information is needed. ecause at least one revision must be made directly. to the original form, .your application is being :turned with this letter. Please address these items: Item V (Non-stormwater discharges) on Form 2F was not completed. Please provide certification that all stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. The site map (survey) lacks some of the information specified in Item 111. For example, the map does not outline paved areas and building footprints, indicate areas of material loading, or indicate areas used for outdoor storage or disposal of significant materials (including hazardous waste storage). Please revise the map to show these areas and list materials and chemicals stored on -site that are exposed to rainfall. Flow estimates should be corrected to reflect unit conversions from cubic feet to gallons.(please see note in application). lease provide the information above so we can continue processing your request.

Our treating plant was sharing a permit with the Coastal Lumber Company sawmill but changes in ownership have made it a necessity to have our own permit. Sincerely, Tom Evans President ,OA wauan�s Pickle, Ken From: Pickle, Ken Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2016 10:34 AM To: 'Rick Farnham' Subject: RE: Stormwater permit for Coastal Treated Products Hi Rick, Please consider this email as respondiniz to your request for a status update letter on Coastal's permit renewal application for stormwater discharge hermit NCS000512. • DEMLR received your renewal application on 6/8/2015. Your permit expired 11/30/2015. We consider your renewal application as timely made. • The federal rules establishing the NPDES permitting program specifically anticipate the current circumstances. Federal rules provide that if the permittee makes timely renewal application, but the agency Sus - DEQ) cannot deliver the renewed permit before expiration, then the old, expired permit continues in effect until the agency can provide renewed permit coverage. The old permit continues in effect as long as the permittee continues to abide by it. • Essentially, it's not your fault that we are late. • Unfortunately I still cannot provide a reliable estimate of when we will have our larger backlog of permit renewals completed, including when we can pick up Coastal to process it. Our database shows that the Coastal renewal application is still in my supervisor's office: which means he is waiting to assign it to staff, when they become available to process it. (This week our supervisor has forwarded a hiring package 'up the chain', and we hope to be adding staff soon.) • Please continue to abide by the conditions of the exvired permit. As I indicate above, the wording of the federal rules can be read to indicate that the permit remains in effect under the condition that the permittee continues to abide by it. As for as I know, we have never had a test -case on this part of the federal rules, but the wording might be read to imply that if the permittee does not abide by the permit, then there is no permit to discharge. I apologize for our delay. We are aware that for many of our permittees the delay in providing renewed coverage is an irritation, and perhaps on occasion the cause of extra work by the responsible manager or staff at the permitted facilities. Please contact me with further questions.

I know back in January, you stated there was a backlog and Coastal' s application and several others had not processed yet and waiting for review. If it has not been reviewed yet, could Coastal get a letter stating that the application has been received and waiting for approval, but we can still continue to operate? If there is anything that Coastal can do on our end, please contact me.

EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90) 1.2 2F-7 Item V Provide a certification that all outfalls that should contain storm water discharges associated with industrial activity have been tested or evaluated for the presence of non -storm waterdischarges which are not covered by an NPDES permit. Tests for such non -storm water discharges may include smoke tests, fluorometric dye tests, analysis of accurate schematics, as well as other appropriate tests. Part 8 must include a description of the mdtftt�f used, the date of any testing, and the onsite drainage points that were directly observed during a test. All nod -storm water discharges must be Identified in a Form 2C or Form 2E which must accompany this application (see beginning of instructions under section titled "Who Must File Form 2F" for a description of when Form 2C and Form 2E must be submitted). Item VI Provide a description of existing information regarding the history of significant leaks or spills of toxic or hazardous pollutants at the facility in the last three years. Item VII-A, B, and C These items rec uire you to collect and report data on the pollutants discharged for each of your outfalls. Each part of this item addresses a different set of pollutants and must be completed in accordance with the specific instructions for that part. The following general instructions apply to the entire item. General Instructions Part A requires you to report at least one analysis for each pollutant listed. Parts B and C require you to report analytical data in two ways. For some pollutants addressed in Parts B and C, if you know or have reason to know that the pollutant is present in your discharge, you may be required to list the pollutant and test (sample and analyze) and report the Llevels of the pollutants In your discharge. For all other pollutants addressed in Parts B and C, you must list the pollutant if you know or have reason to know that the pollutant is present in the discharge, and either report quantitative data for the pollutant or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to be discharged. (See specific instructions on the form and below for Parts A through C.) Base your determination that a pollutant Is present in or absent from your discharge on your knowledge of your raw materials, material management practices, maintenance chemicals, history of spills and releases, inter- mediate and final products and byproducts, and any previous analyses known to you of your effluent or similar effluent. A. Sampling: The collection of the samples for the reported analyses should be supervised by a -person experienced in performing sampling of industrial wastewater or storm water discharges. You may con- tact EPA or your'State permitting authority for detailed guidance on sampling techniques and for answers to specific questions. Any specific requirements contained in the applicable analytical methods should be followed for sample containers, sample preservation, holding times, the collection of duplicate sam- ples, etc. The time when you sample should be representative, to the extent feasible, of your treatment system operating properly with no system upsets. Samples should be collected from the center of the flow channel, where turbulence is at a maximum, at a site specified in your present permit, or at any site adequate for the collection of a representative sample. For pH, temperature, cyanide, total phenols, residual chlorine, oil and grease, and fecal coliform, grab samples taken during the first 30 minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge must be used (you are not required to analyze a flow -weighted composite for these parameters). For all other pollutants both a grab sample collected during the first 30 minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge and a flow -weighted composite sample must be analyzed. However, a minimum of one grab sample may be taken for effluents from holding ponds or other impoundments with a retention period of greater than 24 hours. All samples shall be collected from the discharge resulting from a storm'event that is greater than 0,1 inches and at least 72 hours from the previously measurable (greater than 0.1 inch rainfall) storm event. Where feasible, the variance in the duration of the event and the total rainfall of the event should not exceed 50 percent from the average or median rainfall event in that area. A grab sample shall be taken during the first thirty minutes of the discharge (or as soon thereafter as practicable), and a flow -weighted composite shall he taken for the entire event or for the first three hours of the event. . Grab and composite samples are defined as follows EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90) 1-3 2F-8 Grab sample: An individual sample of at least 100 milliliters collected during the first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge. This sample is to be analyzed separately from the composite sample. Flow -Weighted Composite sample: A flow -weighted composite sample may be taken with a con- tinuous sampler that proportions the amount of sample collected with the flow rate or as a combina- tion of a minimum of three sample aliquots taken in each hour of discharge for the entire event or for the first three hours of the event, with each aliquot being at least 100 milliliters and collected with a minimum period of fifteen minutes between aliquot collections. The composite must be flow propor- tional; either the time interval between each aliquot or the volume of each aliquot must be propor- tional to either the stream flow at the time of sampling or the total stream flow since the collection of the previous aliquot. Aliquots may be collected manually or automatically. Where GC/MS Volatile Organic Analysis (VOA) is required, aliquots must be combined in the laboratory immediately before analysis. Only one analysis for the composite sample Is required. Data from samples taken in the past may be used, provided that: All data requirements are met; Sampling was done no more than three years before submission; and All data are representative of the present discharge. Among the factors which would cause the data to be unrepresentative are significant changes in produc- tion level, changes in raw materials, processes, or final products, and changes in storm water treatment. When the Agency promulgates new analytical methods in 40 CFR Part 136, EPA will provide information as to when you should use the new methods to generate data on your discharges. Of course, the Director may request additional information, Including current quantitative data, if they determine it to be necessary to assess your discharges. The Director may allow or establish appropriate site -specific sam- pling procedures or requirements, including sampling locations, the season in which the sampling takes place, the minimum duration between the previous measurable storm event and'the storm event sam- pled, the minimum or maximum level of precipitation required for an appropriate storm event, the form of precipitation sampled (snow melt or rainfall), protocols for collecting samples under 40 CFR Part 136, and additional time for submitting data on a case -by -case basis. B. Reporting: All levels must be, reported as concentration and as total mass. You may report some or all of the required data by attaching separate sheets of paper instead of filling out pages VII-1 and V11-2 if the separate sheets'contain all the required information in a format which is consistent with pages VII-1 and VII-2 In spacing and In identification of pollutants and columns. Use the following abbreviations in the columns headed "Units." Concentration ppm parts per million mg/1 milligrams per liter ppb parts per billion . ug/1 micrograms per liter kg kilograms Mass Ibs pounds' ton tons (English tons) mg, milligrams g grams T tonnes (metric tons) All reporting of values for metals must be in terms of 'total recoverable metal," unless: (1) An applicable, promulgated effluent limitation or standard specifies the limitation -for the metal in dissolved, valent, or total form; or (2) All approved analytical methods for the metal inherently measure only its dissolved form (e.g., hexavalent chromium); or (3) The permitting authority has determined that in establishing case -by -case limitation's it is neces- sary to express the limitations on the metal in dissolved, valent, or total form to carry out the provi- sions of the CWA. If you measure only one grab sample and one flow -weighted composite sample for a given outfall, complete only the "Maximum Values" columns and insert "1" into the "Number of Storm Events Sampled" column. The permitting authority may require you to conduct additional analyses to further characterize your discharges. _ EPA Form 3510-2F (11.90) 1-4 2F-9 If you measure more than one value for a grab sample or a flow -weighted composite sample for a given outfall and those values are representative of your discharge, you must report them. You must describe your method of testing and data analysis. You also must determine the average of all values within the last year and report the concentration mass under the "Average Values" columns, and the total number of storm events sampled under the "Number of Stone Events Sampled" columns. C. Analysis: You must use test methods promulgated in 40 CFR Part 136; however, if none has been promulgated for a particular pollutant, you may use any suitable method for measuring the level of the pollutant in your discharge provided that you submit a description of the method or a reference to a published method. Your description should include the sample holding time, preservation techniques, and the quality control measures which you used. If you have two or more substantially identical outfalls, you may request permission from your permitting authority to sample and analyze only one outfall and submit the results of the analysis for other substantially identical outfalls. If your request is granted by the permitting authority, on a separate sheet attached to the application form, identify which outfall you did test, and describe why the outfalls which you did not test are substantially identical to the outfall which you did test. Part Vll-A Part VII-A must be completed by all applicants for all outfalls who must complete Form 2F. Analyze a grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the discharge and flow -weighted composite samples for all pollutants in this Part, and report the results except use only grab samples for pH and oil and grease. See discussion in General Instructions to Item VII for definitions of grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes of discharge and flow -weighted composite sample. The "Average Values" column is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Part VII-B List all pollutants that are limited in an effluent guideline which the facility Is subject to (see 40 CFR Subchap- ter N to determine which pollutants are limited In effluent guidelines) or any pollutant listed in the facility's NPDES permit for Its process wastewater (if the facility is operating under an existing NPDES permit). Com- plete one table for each outfall. See discussion in General instructions to item VII for definitions of grab sample collected during thg first thirty minutes (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of discharge and flow - weighted composite sample. The "Average Values" column Is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Analyze a grab sample collected during the first thirty minutes of the discharge and flow -weighted composite samples for all pollutants in this Part, and report the results, except as provided in the General Instructions. Part VII-C Part VII-C must be completed by all applicants for all outfalls which discharge storm water associated with industrial activity, or that EPA is evaluating for designation as a significant contributor of pollutants to waters of the United States, or as contributing to a violation of a water quality standard. Use both a grab sample and a composite sample for all pollutants you analyze for In this part except use grab samples for residual chlorine and fecal coiiform. The "Average Values" column is not compulsory but should be filled out if data are available. Part C requires you to address the pollutants in Table 2F-2, 2F-3, and 2F-4 for each outfall. Pollu- tants in each of these Tables are addressed differently. Table 2F-2: For each outfall, list all pollutants in Table 2F-2 that you know or have reason to believe are discharged (except pollutants previously listed in Part VII-B). If a pollutant is limited in an effluent guideline limitation which the facility is subject to (e.g., use of TSS as an indicator to control the discharge of iron and aluminum), the pollutant should be listed in Part VII-B. if a pollutant in table 2F-2 is indirectly limited by an effluent guideline limitation through an indicator, you must analyze for it and report data in Part VII-C. For other pollutants listed in Table 2F-2 (those not limited directly or indirectly by an effluent limitation guideline), that you know or have reason to believe are discharges, you must either report quantitative data or briefly describe the reasoris the pollutant is expected to be discharged. Table 217-3: For each outfall, list all pollutants in Table 2F-3 that you know or have reason to believe are discharged. For every pollutant in Table 2F-3 expected to be discharged in concentrations of 10 ppb or greater, you must submit quantitative data. For acrolein, acrylonitrile, 2A dinitrophenol, and 2-methyl-4,6 dinitrophenol, you must submit quantitative data if any of these four pollutants is expected to be discharged EPA Form 3510-2F (11.90) 1-5 21= - 10 in concentrations of 100 ppb or greater. For every pollutant expected to be discharged in concentrations less than 10 ppb (or 100 ppb for the four pollutants listed above), then you must either submit quantitative data or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to be discharged. Small Business Exemption - If you are a "small business,".you are exempt from the reporting requirements for the organic toxic pollutants listed in Table 2F-3. There are two ways In which you can qualify as a "small business If your facility is a coal mine, and 0 your probable total annual production is less than 100.000 tons per year, you may submit past production data or estimated future production (such as a schedule of esti- mated total production under 30 CFR 795.14(c)) instead of conducting analyses for the organic toxic pollu- tants. If ,your facility is not a coal mine, and If your gross total annual sales for the most recent three years average less than $100.000 per year (in second quarter 1980 dollars), you may submit sales data for those years Instead of conducting analyses for the organic toxic pollutants. The production or sales data must be for the facility which is the source of the discharge. The data should not be limited to production or sales for the process or processes which contribute to the discharge, unless those are the only processes at your facility. For sales data, in situations involving Intracorporate transfer of goods and services, the transfer price per unit should approximate market prices forthose goods and services as closely as possible. Sales figures for years after 1980 should be indexed to the second quarter of 1980 by using the gross national product price deflator (second quarter of 1980=100). This index is available in National Income and Product Ac- counts of the United States (Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis). Table 2F-4: For each outfall, list any pollutant In Table 2F-4 that you know or believe to be present in the discharge and explain why you believe it to be present. No analysis is required, but if you have analytical data, you must report them. Note: Under 40 CFR 11.7.12(a)(2), certain discharges of hazardous substances (listed at 40 CFR 177.21 or 40 CFR 302.4) may be exempted from the requirements of section 311 of CWA, which establishes reporting requirements, civil penalties, and liability for cleanup costs for spills of oil and hazardous substances. A discharge of a particular substance may be exempted if the origin, source, and amount of the discharged substances are identified In the NPDES.permit application or in the permit, if the permit contains a requirement for treatment of the discharge, and if the treatment Is in place. To apply for an exclusion of the discharge of any hazardous substance from the requirements of section 311, attach addi- tional sheets of paper to your form, setting forth the following information: 1. The substance and the amount of each substance which may be discharged. 2. The origin and source of the discharge of the substance. 3. The treatment which is to be provided for the discharge by: a. An onsite treatment system separate from any treatment system treating your normal dis- charge; b. A treatment system designed to treat your normal discharge and which Is additionally capable of treating the amount of the substance Identified under paragraph t above; or c. Any combination of the above. See 40 CFR 117.12(a)(2) and (c), published on August 29, 1979, in 44 FIR 50766, or contact your Regional Office (Table 1 on Form 1, Instructions), for further information on exclusions from section 311. Part VII-D If sampling is conducted during more than one storm event, you only need to report the information re- quested In Part VII-D for the storm event(s) which resulted in any maximum pollutant concentration reported in Part VII-A, VII-B, or VII-C. Provide flow measurements or estimates of the flow rate, and the total amount of discharge for the storm event(s) sampled, the method of flow measurement, or estimation. Provide the data and duration of the storm event(s) sampled, rainfall measurements, or estimates of the storm event which generated the sampled runoff and the duration between the storm event sampled and the end of the previous measurable (greater than 0.1 inch rainfall) storm event. Part VII-E List any toxic pollutant listed in Tables 2F-2, 2F-3, or 2F-4 which you currently use or manufacture as an intermediate or final product or byproduct. In addition, if you know or have reason to believe that 2,3,7,8-te- trachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (rCDD) Is discharged or if you use or manLi acture'2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic EPA Form 3510-2F (11-90� 1-6 2F-11 acid (2,4,5,-T); 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) propanoic acid (Slivex, 2,4,5,-TP); 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) ethyl, 2,2-dichloroproaionate (Erbon); 0,0-dimethyl 0-(2,4,5-trichlorphenyl) phosphorothioate (Ronne]); 2,4,5- trichlorophenol (TCP); or hexachlorophene (HCP); then list TCDD. The Director may waive or modify the requirement if you demonstrate that it would be unduly burdensome to identify each toxic pollutant and the Director has adequate information to issue your permit. You may not claim this information as confidential; however, you do not have to distinguish between use or production of the pollutants or list the amounts. Item VIII Self explanatory. The permitting authority may ask you to provide additional details after your application is received. Item X The Clean Water Act provides for severe penalties for submitting false, information on this application form. Section 309(c)(4) of the Clean Water Act provides that 'Any person who knowingly makes any false material statement, representation, or certification in any application,. ., shall upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 or by imprisonment for not more than 2 years, or by both. It a conviction of such person is for a violation committed after a first conviction of such person under this paragraph, punishment shall be by a fine of not more than $20,000 per day of violation, or by Imprisonment of not.more than 4 years, or by both." 40 CFR Part 122.22 requires the certification to be signed as follows: (A) For a corporation: by a responsible corporate official. For purposes of this section, a responsible corporate official means (i) a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy- or decision - making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operating facilities employing more than 250 persons or having gross annual sales or expenditures exceeding $25,000,000 (in second-quarter 1980 dollars), if authority to sign documents has been as- signed or delegated to the manager in accordance with corporate procedures. Note: EPA does not require specific assignments or delegation of authority to responsible corporate officers identified in 122.22(a)(1)(i). The Agency will presume that these responsible corporate officers have the requisite authority to sign permit applications unless the corporation has notified the Director to the contrary, Corporate procedures governing authority to sign permit applications may provide for assignment or delegation to applicable corporate position under 122.22(a)(1)(11) rather than to specific individuals. (B) For a partnership or sole proprietorship: by a general partner or the proprietor, respectively; or (C) For a municipality, State, Federal, or other public agency: by either a principal executive officer or ranking elected official. For purposes of this section, a principal executive officer of a Federal agency includes (i) the chief executive officer of the agency, or (11) a senior executive officer having responsibility for the overall operations of a principal geographic unit of the agency (e.g., Regional Administrators of EPA).

(ICBO ES), are based upon performance features of the Uniform Building Codilm, ICBO Uniform Mechanical Codelu and related codes. Section 104.2.8 of the Uniform Building Code is the primary charging section upon which evaluation reports are issued. Section 104.2.8 reads as follows: The provisions of this code are not intended to prevent the use of any material, alternate design or method of construction not specifically prescribed by this code, provided any alternate has been approved and its use authorized by the building official. The building official may approve any such alternate, provided the building official finds that the proposed design is satisfactory and complies with the provisions of this code and that the material, method or work offered is, for the purpose intended, at least the equivalent of that prescribed in this code in suitability, strength, effec- tiveness, fire resistance, durability, safety and sanitation. The building official shall require that sufficient evidence or proof be submitted to substantiate any claims that may be made regarding its use. The details of any action granting approval of an alternate shall be recorded and entered in the files of the code enforcement agency. The attached acceptance criteria has been issued to provide all interested parties with guidelines on implementing perform- ance features of the codes. The criteria was developed and adopted following public hearings conducted by the Evaluation Committee and is effective on the date shown above. All reports issued or reissued on or after the effective date must comply with this criteria, while reports issued prior to this date may be in compliance with this criteria or with the previous edition. If the criteria is an updated version from a previous edition, solid vertical lines ( 1) in the outer margin within the criteria indicate a technical change or addition from the previous edition. Deletion indicators (0 ) are provided in the outer margins where a paragraph or item has been deleted if the deletion resulted from a technical change. This criteria may be further re- vised as the need dictates. ICBO ES may consider alternate criteria, provided the proponent submits valid data demonstrating that the alternate crite- ria are at least equivalent to the attached criteria and otherwise meet the applicable performance requirements of the codes. Notwithstanding that a material, type or method of construction, or equipment, meets the attached acceptance criteria, or that it can be demonstrated that valid alternate criteria are equivalent and otherwise meet the applicable performance requirements of the codes, if the material, product, system or equipment is such that either unusual care in its installation or use must be exercised for satisfactory performance, or malfunctioning is apt to cause unreasonable property damage or personal injury or sickness relative to the benefits to be achieved by the use thereof, ICBO ES retains the right to refuse to issue or renew an evaluation report.

The basis of recognition is Section 14.2.8 of the 1997 Uniform Building Code "(UBC). 1.2 Reference Documents: 1.2.1 1997 UBC, 1.2.2 American Wood -Preservers' Association (AWPA) Book of Standards: 1.2.2.1 Treating Solution Analysis Standards: Copper: AWPA Standard A9-97 AWPA Standard A11-93 AWPA Standard A2-98 (paragraph 6) AWPA Standard A21-93. Quat: AWPA Standard Al7-97 AWPA Standard A18-93. Ammonia: AWPA Standard A2-93 (paragraph 1). 1.2.2.2 Retention in the Wood Analysis Standards: Copper: AWPA Standard A9-97 AWPA Standard A11-93 AWPA Standard A21-93. Quat: AWPA Standard A16-93 AWPA Standard A18-93. 1.2.2.3 Penetration in Wood: AWPA Standard A3-97 (paragraph 2). 2.0 DEFINITION ACQ preservatives are compositions containing copper (11) ions, carbonate, and quaternary ammonium compound (quat). The ratio of copper, expressed as CuO, to quat is 2:1, by weight; and the ratio of carbonate, expressed as CO2, to CUO is a mini- mum of 0.65:1, by weight. ACQ preservatives must have the following composition: Copper, as CuO 66.7% Quat' 33.3% The composition must be dissolved in ethanolamine or ammo- nia to give aqueous solutions having a pH of from 8.5 to 11.5. When ethanolamine is used, the weight of ethanolamine in treat- ing solutions must be 2.75 times the weight of copper oxide; and when ammonia is used, the weight of the ammonia in treating solutions must be at least 1.0 times the weight of copper oxide. To aid in solution, it is also necessary for the treating solution to contain carbonate anions. The amount of carbonate, expressed as CO2, must be at least 0.69 times the amount of copper oxide. The composition of the preservative present in a treating solu- tion may vary within the following limits: - MINIMUM PERCENT MAXIMUM PERCENT Copper, as CuO 62.0 71.0 Quat' 29.0 38.0 'The quat used in ACQ Types B and D is didecyidimethyl ammonium chloride, and in ACQ Type C is alkylbenzyldimethylammonium chlo- ride. The treating solution must contain bivalent copper and quater- nary ammonium compounds derived from compounds having a purity in excess of 95 percent on an anhydrous basis. The com- mercial preservative must be labeled as to its total content of ac- tive ingredients. Testing to establish conformity with the foregoing requirements must be done in accordance with the standard methods of the AWPA. The composition of the treating solution in use may deviate from the limits specified in the following table, provided the pre- servative retention in treated material is determined by assay, and the retention so determined conforms to the following mini- mum percentage requirements: ACQ PRESERVE RETENTION AS SPECIFIED MINIMUM COPPER AS CuO MINIMUM GUAT ACTIVE MINIMUM SUM 0.25 0.13 0.07 0,25 0.40 0.21 0.11 0,40 0.60 0.32 0.16 0.60 0.80 0.42 0.22 0.80 1.00 0.53 0.27 1.00 3.0 TREATMENT PROCESS 3.1 General: ACQ preservative is for application to wood above ground and in contact with the ground. ACQ wood pre- servative material must conform to the compositions shown, and to the applicable AWPA analytical standards. No substi- tute components are permitted. 3.2 Wood Material: The lumber and timber wood species must be the same as those allowed by the AWPA standards for CCA, ACQ or ACZA. For plywood, only the following spe- cies and grade classifications may be used: SPECIES GRADE Southem yellow pine V-600 or V-61 l Coastal Douglas -fir Group I or Group 2 Lumber and plywood must be free of decay. The lumber and plywood must meet the requirements of the marked grade, ex- cept that raised grain and further checking of the surface be- yond the grade description, size variation due to wetting, and incising marks are permitted. Lumber or plywood marked with a nonapproved or deceptive grade description must not be quality marked. Before treatment, all wood products to be treated with ACQ wood preservative must be dried to a moisture content that al- lows proper penetration. Moisture content readings must be taken with an electrical -resistance needle -type moisture me- ter. In cases of dispute, the ASTM D 2016-83 oven dry method must be used. When ACQ wood preservative treated lumber is specified to be dry after treatment, the moisture content of the material must be 19 percent or less. 3.3 Incising: The penetration must be the same as required in the appropriate AWPA commodity standard for CCA, ACQ or ACZA. Incising may be necessary in some species or sizes. 3.4 Treatment Process: The pressure -treating processes must be the same as those described in the AWPA commodity standards for CCA, ACQ or ACZA. 3.5 Results of Treatment: Penetration and retention re- quirements and methods must be the same as those for the appropriate AWPA standards for CCA, ACQ or ACZA., Standard density for assay calculation must be 32 pcf for southern pine and 28 pcf for Douglas fir. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA FOR ACO WOOD PRESERVATIVE TREATMENT Retention by assay (pcf) must be the same as shown in AWPA standards for CCA, ACQ, or ACZA for above -ground and ground -contact applications. Penetration must be the same as shown in AWPA stan- dards for CCA, ACQ or ACZA. Penetration is acceptable if 90 percent of the total number of borings taken from each lot are penetrated. 3.6 Requirements for Plywood: 3.6.1 Sampling Method: Boring samples must be taken from not less than five panels in each charge. These sam- ples must be taken at a point 12 inches (305 mm) from any edge. Plywood 518 inch (15.9 mm) or less in thickness must be sampled through the full thickness. Plywood over 518 inch (15.9 mm) in thickness must be sampled from the lower - grade face to a depth of 518 inch (15.9 mm), 3.6.2 Drying after Treatment: Plywood should be dried after treatment to a moisture content not exceeding 18 per- cent, unless otherwise specified by the purchaser. 3.6.3 Marking: Each piece of material must be marked with the applicable mark illustrated in the approved quality control manual. The authorized treater must not be per- mitted to mix marked material with unmarked material in one package. 3.7 Requirements for Lumber—Sampiing Method: All ACQ wood preservative treated wood products must be bored, using the applicable methods outlined in AWPA Stan- dard M2-97 and the applicable AWPA commodity standard. Requirements are the same as those for CCA, ACQ, or ACZA. quality control supervisor must see that this equipment is calibrated and maintained in acceptable working con- dition. The authorized treating plant must provide a lab- oratory on the plant premises, adequately equipped with all apparatus and supplies necessary for perform- ing the required retention assays; or must send boring cores, taken in accordance with AWPA Standard M2-91, in the prescribed number and at the frequency prescribed by the plant's quality level, to the evaluation report applicant. 2. Moisture Content: The plant quality control supervisor must ensure that the lumber and plywood meet proper moisture -content requirements before and after treat- ment, as specified in the approved quality control manu- al. 3. Record Keeping: The quality control supervisor must keep records of each charge, showing charge number; date treated; material description, and material volume expressed in cubic feet; solution concentration; treating conditions; and net retentions expressed in pcf. The quality control supervisor must also keep the records of results of penetration and retention sampling. All re- cords must be retained for one year. Additionally, each unit of lumber and plywood must be marked with the charge number. 4. Sampling for Penetration: The quality control supervisor must sample each charge to establish compliance with penetration standards listed in the approved quality control manual and with AWPA Standards M2-97 and A3-97. 4.0 QUALITY CONTROL 5.

The plant material. Lumber and Wood Products Sector Notebook Project constructed of veneers that are bonded together with phenol -formaldehyde (PF) adhesive resin to form a laminate. The veneers are layered with the wood grain along the long axis of the beam. Laminated veneer lumber is manufactured to typical lumber sizes (2 x 4, 2 x 6, etc.). The length of the beams that can be manufactured is varied using end joints or finger joints. Another application of LVL is in the construction of wood "I" joists (a small beam that resembles the letter "I"). LVL is used to construct the top and bottom (flanges) of the joist and OSB or plywood is used to construct the center (web). Glulam beams are also emerging as a substitute for lumber. Glulam is short for glued -laminated structural timber — large beams fabricated by bonding layers of specially -selected lumber with Resorcinol or Resorcinol/PF adhesives and timber. End and edge jointing permit production of longer and wider structural wood members than are available naturally. Glulam timbers are used with structural wood panels for many types of heavy timber construction. Most of the engineered lumber products are used as substitutes for structural softwood lumber of large sizes and in applications where uniform strength is essential. 1-beams, however, are finding wide application, with extensive use as floor joists and beams for various structures. There are several advantages of composite lumber when compared with sawn softwood lumber. First, these products allow production of large sizes of lumber from small, low-grade logs. Normally, relatively large and high-grade sawlogs are needed for production of lumber of this size. Second, composite lumber compares advantageously to solid sawn lumber in terms of both uniformity of quality and straightness. While the quality of lumber is determined to a great extent by the raw material, the quality of the reconstituted product is dependent upon the manufacturing process. it is likely, however, that use of composite lumber will increase in the future. Wood Preserving Wood is treated with preservatives to protect it from mechanical, physical, and chemical influences. Preserved wood is used primarily in. the construction, railroad, and utilities industries to prevent rotting when wood is exposed to damp soil, standing water, or rain, and as protection against termites and marine borers. The most common preservatives include water -borne inorganics like chromated copper arsenate (CCA) and ammoniacal copper zinc arsenate (ACZA), and oil - borne organics like pentachlorophenol (PCP) and creosote. Generally, water- borne inorganic solutions constitute approximately 78 percent of all preservatives used, while oil -borne creosote and PCP comprise 15 percent and 6 percent, respectively. Creosote, PCP, and inorganic wood preservatives are all applied using similar processes. More than 90 percent of the wood preservation in the U.S. is performed using pressure treatment processes. Exhibit 10 illustrates a two -cylinder SIC Code 24 24 September 1995 Sector Notebook Project Lumber and Wood Products pressure treatment process for CCA. A limited quantity of wood is preserved using non -pressure treatment processes in which the preservative is allowed to diffuse into the wood. This process is used with some oil-bome preservatives, but not with waterborne inorganics. The penetration required to adequately preserve wood can be achieved only if the wood has been conditioned properly; that is, if the moisture content of the freshly - cut wood is reduced to a point where the preservative can penetrate and be retained by the wood. Wood is usually conditioned in the open air or conditioned in the cylinder (retort) in which the pressure treatment is performed. The sawn lumber is sometimes incised to increase preservative penetration. Open air drying is typically used to prepare large stock for treatment with oil -borne preservatives. Other methods for conditioning wood prior to treatment with oil -borne preservatives include steaming, heating, and vapor drying. Kiln drying is used primarily for water -borne treatment. Conditioning is a major source of wastewater in the wood preserving industry. After the moisture content of the wood has been reduced, the wood is preserved using either non -pressure or pressure methods. Non -pressure processes include brushing, spraying, dipping, soaking, and thermal processes. These processes involve the repeated use of preservative in a treatment tank with fresh preservative solution added to replace consumptive loss. The continual reuse of preservative leads to the accumulation of wood chips, sand, stones, and other debris contaminated with various hazardous constituents in the bottom of the treating tanks. This contaminated debris is a major source of process waste for non - pressure processes.

Pop.: 43,392 people Pop. Density: 91 persons/mil Land Cover (%) Forest/Wetland: 65.2 Surface Water: 2.8 Urban: 1.5 Cultivated Crop: 28.4 Pasture/ Managed Herbaceous: 2.0 The upper portion of this subbasin, including Roanoke Rapids Lake, lies within the piedmont region, while the middle and lower portions are in the coastal plain. The coastal plain portion includes approximately 50 miles of the Roanoke River. The major tributaries in this subbasin are Chockoyette, Quankey, Occoneechee and Bridgers Creeks; and Conoconnara, Kehuku, Gumberry and Cypress Swamps. Municipalities include Gaston, Roanoke Rapids, Weldon, Garysburg and Halifax, as well as portions of Scotland Neck, Rich Square and Lewiston - Woodville. A map of this subbasin including water quality sampling locations is presented in Figure B-8. B ioc lass ifications for sample sites in this subbasin are presented in Table B-20. Use support ratings for each applicable category in this subbasin are summarized in Table B-21 and B-22. Refer to Appendix III for a complete listing of monitored waters and further information about use support ratings. With the exception of the Gaston, Roanoke Rapids and Weldon urban area, most of the land in this subbasin is forested (65 percent) or in agriculture (30 percent). The majority of the agricultural land is cultivated cropland (cotton, peanuts, tobacco and soybeans), but there are many animal operations in the area as well. There are eleven NPDES permitted dischargers in this subbasin. The largest facilities are Champion International, Perdue Farms and the Roanoke Rapids, Weldon and NC Department of Correction's (DOC) Caledonia Prison WWTPs. All of these facilities discharge directly into the Roanoke River. DOC's Caledonia facility has significant compliance problems with BOD, fecal coliform and total suspended solids. This facility is discussed further in Part 8.5.1. Seven facilities are required to perform toxicity tests on their discharge. Toxicity problems were observed at the Town of Halifax WWTP (discharges into Quankey Creek) and the Panda - Rosemary Corporation facility (discharges into Chockoyotte Creek) over the past two years.

Extensive evaluation, conducted by DWQ, of swamp streams across eastern North Carolina suggests that different criteria should be used to assess the condition of water duality in these systems. Swamp streams are characterized by slower flow, lower dissolved oxygen, lower pH, and sometimes very complex braided channels and dark -colored water. DWQ has developed draft biological criteria that may be used in the future to assign bioclassifications to these streams (as is currently done for other streams and rivers across the state). However, DWQ believes that there has been insufficient sampling of reference swamp streams to assign bioclassifications to them and use them for use support determinations in the Roanoke River basin at this time. DWQ continues to work toward preparing these criteria for future use. The Roanoke River at Halifax was sampled for the first time in 1999 and received a Good bioclassification for Benthic macroinvertebrates. The Roanoke River at Scotland Neck maintained a Good bioclassification as well. In 1994, the river also received a Good Benthic bioclassification below Weldon. The biological community in the lower portion of Quankey Creek, below the Town of Halifax WWTP, received a Fair bioclassification in both 1992 and 1999. The upper portion is swampy, and the site was not rated; but no potential impacts to water quality were observed. The lower Section B; Chapter 8 - Roanoke River Subbasin 03-02-08 139 section of Quankey Creek is only partially supporting aquatic life/secondary recreation and is discussed in more detail in the following sections. Deep Creek, Occoneechee Creek, Conoconnara Swamp and Kehukee Swamp were not rated using macroinvertebrate data because of their swampy nature. However, some habitat degradation was noted at each site. Please refer to Section A, Chapter 4 for further discussion of habitat degradation in the Roanoke River basin. Fish community data were collected and a mussel survey was conducted in 1995 and,1996 by Dominion (formerly North Carolina Power Company) as part of its relicensing efforts for the Lake Gaston and Roanoke Rapids hydroelectric project. Eight of the fifteen mussel species that had been historically documented or believed to be present in the lower Roanoke River were collected from a single 10-mile stretch (DENR-DWQ, May 2000). Fish tissue samples were collected by DWQ from two sites on the Roanoke River in 1995 and 1999. Six bowfin samples from the river at Weldon had mercury concentrations greater than the EPA screening value. Metals concentrations in 21 samples of other fish species were less than federal and state criteria for fish consumption. At Scotland Neck, 23 fish were tested for mercury contamination. One largemouth bass and one bowfin had concentrations greater than EPA consumption criteria. Roanoke Rapids Lake was the only lake monitored in this subbasin. The lake has extensive growths of nuisance aquatic macrophytes. More than 30 percent of the lake's surface area is covered with Hydrilla (DENR-DWQ, May 2000). Other species are also present in the lake. Secondary recreation activities, such as boating and water-skiing, are impaired in this lake, and the lake is discussed in more detail in the following sections. Water chemistry samples are collected monthly from three sites on the Roanoke River in this subbasin: at Roanoke Rapids, near Scotland Neck and just above Hamilton. Although there was no indication of substantial water quality problems, total suspended solids and nitrate nitrogen concentrations increased in a downstream manner from Roanoke Rapids to Hamilton. For more detailed information on sampling and assessment of streams in this subbasin, refer to the Basinwide Assessment Report - Roanoke River Basin (DENR-DWQ, May 2000), available from DWQ Environmental Sciences Branch at http:Nwww.esb.enr.state.nc.us/bar.html or by calling (919) 733-9960.

Refer to Section A, Part 4.8.4 for further information. 8.2 Status and Recommendations for Previously Impaired Waters This section reviews use support and recommendations detailed in the 1996 basinwide plan, reports status of progress, gives recommendations for the next five-year cycle, and outlines current projects aimed at improving water quality for each water. The 1996 Roanoke River basin plan identified three impaired waters in this subbasin. Roanoke Rapids Lake, Quankey Creek and Conoconnora Swamp are discussed below. 8.2.1 Roanoke Rapids Lake (4,893 acres) 1996 Recommendation(s) In 1996, Roanoke Rapids Lake was partially supporting designated uses due to infestation of invasive aquatic plants. The lake was described as having prolific growths of aquatic macrophytes, especially Hydrilla, that hindered secondary recreation activities such as boating and water-skiing on large portions of the lake. Nutrient levels were -moderate and the recommendation, as in the case of Lake Gaston (subbasin 03-02-07), was to assess the need for a nonpoint source pollution nutrient management plan. Status_ o Progress In recent years, there has been an increase in invasive aquatic macrophytes in Roanoke Rapids Lake. More than 30 percent of the surface area is affected by these nuisance plants (DENR- DWQ, May 2000). Moderate levels of nutrients were again observed during DWQ's 1999 lake monitoring; however, studies have shown that the most prevalent plant, Hydrilla, does not respond to nutrient reduction. Secondary recreation remains impaired (partially supporting) in this lake. Citizens have formed the Roanoke Rapids Lake Management Council to work toward reducing aquatic weeds in the lake. Section B: Chapter 8 - Roanoke River subbasin 03-02-08 141 2001 Recommendations DWQ will work the Roanoke Rapids Lake Management Council and DWR to reduce aquatic weeds. Water quality could also benefit from nutrient reduction in this lake. Additionally, a public education campaign is recommended so that introduction of additional aquatic macrophytes from boats that have been in other waters is minimized. Refer to Section C for information about funding sources that are available for water quality improvements and education in impaired waters. 8.2.2 Quankey Creek (19.4 miles from source to the Roanoke River) 1996 Recommendations) Two sites, above and below the Town of Halifax WWTP, were sampled during the last basin cycle at the lower end of Quankey Creek. The biological community at both sites received a Fair bioclassification. The 1996 recommendation was to evaluate impacts from a rest area along 1-95 upstream. Status offroQress In 1999, two sites, downstream of 1-95 and downstream of the Town of Halifax WWTP, were sampled by DWQ. The biological community below the Halifax WWTP again received a bioclassification of Fair. This facility has experienced compliance problems over the past decade and failed 25 percent of whole effluent toxicity tests between 1997 and 1999. Conductivity was 117 umhos (compared to 70 umhos upstream), reflecting the influence of the point source discharge. However, there is significant habitat degradation caused by channel alterations contributing to impairment of aquatic life (partially supporting) in the lower section of Quankey Creek. The benthic community at the upstream site (that was chosen to evaluate the effects of the 1-95 rest area) was not rated because the site exhibited swamp characteristics. However, the site received the highest habitat quality score of any tributary sampled in the coastal plain area of the basin. A large number of insects were collected as well as a good variety of pollution intolerant species. There was no indication of water quality impacts at this location. Based on this additional monitoring effort, the number of impaired stream miles has been reduced from 19.4 to 3.4 (from the confluence with Little Quankey Creek to the mouth at Roanoke River). 2001 Recommendations DWQ will continue to work with the Town of Halifax to resolve problems with the WWTP discharge. The town received a grant in March 2000 to begin addressing the most critical maintenance problems at the facility, but more funding is needed to complete collection system rehabilitation and construction of new sewer lines to eliminate failing septic systems in the Town of Halifax. Refer to Part 8.5.1 for further details about NPDES discharges in this subbasin. Additionally, DWQ will continue to monitor Quankey Creek and, as resources allow, sample Little Quankey Creek during the next basinwide sampling to assess its contribution to degraded water quality in this watershed. Section B: Chapter 8 - Roanoke River Subbasin 03-02-08 142 8.2.3 Conoconnora Swamp (17.7 miles from source to the Roanoke River) 1996 Recommendations) This stream was rated as impaired during the last basin cycle by using fish community data that resulted in a Fair bioc lass ification. The recommendation was to evaluate the contribution of agricultural runoff in the watershed and implement best management practices as necessary. Status of Progress Fish community data was not collected from this stream during this basin cycle. The benthic macro invertebrate community was not rated and will remain not rated until assessment criteria can be used with confidence (refer to previous sections). While aquatic life/secondary recreation in this stream is not currently considered impaired, lower total numbers and diversity of pollution intolerant species of aquatic insects were observed during the 1999 sampling. 8.3 Status and Recommendations for Newly Impaired Waters The majority of the lower Roanoke River in North Carolina was rated as impaired based on fish consumption advisories and recent DWQ fish tissue monitoring (1995-1999). This section outlines the potential causes and sources of impairment and provides recommendations for improving water quality. 8.3.1 Roanoke River (128.5 miles from the Roanoke Rapids dam to Williamston) Current Status The Roanoke River, from the Roanoke Rapids dam to the Albemarle Sound, is impaired because of fish consumption advisories. In this particular section of the river, from the dam to Williamston, the only advisory is due to elevated levels of mercury in bowfin (blackfish). Bowfin with levels of mercury that exceed consumption criteria were collected by DWQ in the Roanoke River near Weldon and Williamston in 1995 and 1999. Because of this advisory, this portion of the river is only partially supporting the fish consumption category. (Note: This is not a new advisory, but improved use support methodology now bases impairment for the fish consumption use support category on fish consumption advisories. See Appendix III for more information regarding use support ratings.) 2001_Recommendation(s} DWQ will continue to monitor fish tissue in the Roanoke River and will work to identify sources of mercury. Given the global scale of mercury cycling, it may be difficult for DWQ to recognize significant reductions of mercury in fish over the short-term. The NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has established a Mercury Task Force that includes staff from DWQ, Division of Air Quality, Hazardous Waste, Pollution Prevention and Wildlife Resources. In addition, DWQ has established an internal Water Quality Section Work Group to stay abreast of mercury issues. Section A, Part 4.8 provides more details about mercury in the environment. Section B: Chapter 8 - Roanoke River Subbasin 03-02-08 143 8.4 Section 303(d) Listed Waters Currently in this subbasin, two waters are listed on the state's year 2000 §303(d) list: Roanoke Rapids Lake and Quankey, Creek. Roanoke Rapids Lake is listed on Part 1 of the 2000 §303(d) list requiring DWQ to develop a TMDL/management strategy. Quankey Creek is biologically impaired. Both waters are discussed in more detail in the previous sections. The Roanoke River, along with all other waters in the basin, will likely be added to the list in 2002 based on the statewide bowfin consumption advisory. Refer to Appendix IV for more information on the state's §303(d) list and listing requirements. 8.5 Other Issues and Recommendations The surface waters discussed in this section are fully supporting designated uses (or not rated) based on recent DWQ monitoring; however, data revealed some impacts to water quality. Although no action is required for these streams, voluntary implementation of BM -Ps is encouraged and continued monitoring is recommended. DWQ will notify local agencies of water quality concerns regarding these waters and work with them to conduct further monitoring and to locate sources of water quality protection funding. Additionally, education on local water quality issues is always a useful tool to prevent water quality problems and to promote restoration efforts. Nonpoint source program agency contacts are listed in Appendix VI. Although aquatic communities in the section of Roanoke River contained in this subbasin are currently in good condition, there are several discharges and other impacts in this'portion that are likely contributing to a decline in water quality downstream. These impacts are discussed in the following paragraphs. 8.5.1 NPDES Discharges As was mentioned in this chapter's overview, the NC Department of Correction's (DOC) Caledonia Prison WWTP discharge, which is permitted to release 0.8 million gallons per day to the Roanoke River, continued to experience compliance problems over the past five years. Parameters that exceed permitted limits include BOD, fecal coliform and total suspended solids. DWQ has been working with DOC for the past eight years to correct problems with this discharge. Almost $8,000 in civil penalties have been assessed dating back to June 1993. DOC has plans to build a new constructed wetlands treatment system by December 2002. Final compliance with permit limits for this new discharge is required by July 2003. The Town of Halifax's WWTP discharge, permitted to release up to 0.7 MGD to Quankey Creek just upstream of the Roanoke River, continued to experience both compliance (BOD and total suspended solids) and toxicity problems over the past five years. DWQ has been working with the town for more than a decade to resolve problems with this deteriorating facility. More than $8,000 in civil penalties have been assessed dating back to June 1991. The, town received a grant in March 2000 to begin addressing the most critical maintenance problems at the facility, but more funding is needed to complete collection system rehabilitation and construction of new sewer lines to eliminate failing septic systems in the Town of Halifax. Section B: Chapter 8 - Roanoke River Subbasin 03-02-08 144 8.5.2 Eroding Streambanks There are several large areas along the Roanoke River, as well as smaller tributaries where the banks are eroding. In some areas, this erosion is severe, contributing large amounts of sedimentation to the Roanoke River. One landowner, with several hundred feet of riverbank, has agreed to work with the Albemarle -Pamlico National Estuary Program's (APNEP) Roanoke Regional Council to provide alternative water sources and fence livestock out of the Roanoke River. That project will serve as a demonstration site, once it is complete. Refer to Part 1.2.2 of Section C for details about the Roanoke Regional Council. The DOC Caledonia facility is a prison farm, and cattle at this facility have had access to the Roanoke riverbank for several hundred feet. The Division of Soil and Water Conservation has been working with DOC to select and implement BMPs at this facility, including cattle exclusion and bank stabilization. Section A, Chapter 4 discusses sedimentation, streambank erosion and best management practices for controlling them. Appendix VI contains descriptions of and contact information for nonpoint source pollution programs in North Carolina. 8.5.3 Phase 11 Stormwater Requirements Amendments were made to the Clean Water Act in 1990 (Phase 1) and most recently in 1999 (Phase 11) pertaining to permit requirements for Stormwater discharges associated with storm sewer systems. Part of Phase II requires some municipal storm sewer systems serving populations under 100,000, which are located in larger urbanized areas and/or that have a high population density to obtain an NPDES stormwater permit. The municipal permitting requirements are designed to lead into the formation of comprehensive stormwater management programs for municipal areas. Roanoke Rapids will be considered for inclusion under the Phase II rules because of a population greater than 10,000 and/or a population density greater than 1,000 persons per square mile. DWQ is currently developing criteria that will be used to determine whether this and other municipalities will be required to obtain a NPDES permit. Refer to Section A, Part 2.7.2 for further information. 8.5.4 Chockoyette Creek This stream flows through and around Roanoke Rapids and Weldon in the northwestern portion of this subbasin. The stream is currently impacted by collection system overflows in Roanoke Rapids, but there is also potential for serious habitat degradation to occur as this urban area continues to grow. Roanoke Rapids is diligently working to correct the wastewater collection system problems, which essentially amounts to a complete replacement. DWQ will continue to work with the city over the next five years toward completion of this task. DWQ will also plan to sample this stream during this basinwide cycle, as resources allow. Stormwater issues need to be addressed by Roanoke Rapids, Gastonand Weldon. This urban area is not automatically covered by the EPA's Phase lI stormwater rules, based on total population and density (see part 8.5.3). However, these municipalities could begin to develop a stormwater program that addresses stormwater runoff.
