PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority
The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
2. DWQ or Division
Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources.
3. EMC
Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. Permittee
Used herein means the entity who obtains coverage under this general permit by subsequent issuance of
a"Certificate of Coverage" by the Division of Water Quality.
5. Act or "the Act"
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 USC
1251, et. seq.
6. Mass/T)�v Measurements
The "mn-�thl�� a��Prage discharge" is defined as the t�tal mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by
the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month. It is therefore, an
arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then
dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identitied as
"Monthly Average" in Part I of the pernut.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and
measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week. It is,
therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week
and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified
as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a calendar
day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from it is
the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily Maximum," in Part I of the
permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by
the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is, therefore, an
arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants_ found each day of the year and then
dividing this sum by the number of da3�s the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual
A��erage" in Part I of the permit.
Page 2 of 14
7. Concentration Measurement
The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which
daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled
and/or measured during such month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily
concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is
the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day.
The average monthly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples
collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other
Units" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week
(Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of
daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily
concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to tfie concentration of a composite sample
or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples
collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the
geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is
identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Units" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar
day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from
it is the "Maximum Dailv Concentrati�n". It is identified as "Daily Maximum" und�r "nther Units" in
Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the
concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on which daily
discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or
measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily
concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is
the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day .
The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples
collected during a calendar year.
The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of
dissolved oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar
day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be
the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of
Part I.
f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is
identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April
through June, July through September, and October through December.
Other Measurements
a. Flo�v, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly.
It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month.
Page 3 of 14
b. An "instantaneous flo�v measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, �vhen both
the sample and floti� will be representati��e of the total discharge. � �
c. A"continuous flo�v measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs
continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be
monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent
maintenance activities on the flow device.
9. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and
combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or
(2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between
samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement
bet��een sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present
gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow
at the treatment system, or .
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no greater than
once per hour, and the time interval bet�veen effluent grab samples shall be no greater than once per
hc�u, excrnt ai �vastewater treatment systems ha�-in� a detentior� time of greater than 24 hours. In such
cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period
�.hich ai� :..�ual i:; number of hours to the de.ention tin,. ;,. the �yst�m in number of da�•s. Fic:�rez�er, in
no case may the time interval between effluent grab
samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of samples less than four (4) during a 24 hour
sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not exceeding 15
minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually.
I0. Calculation of Means

4. Bypassing of Treatment Facilities
a. Definitions
(1) "Bypass" means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility
including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the
facility.
(2) "Se��ere property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment
facilities �vhich causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural
Page 8 of 14
resources �vhich can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage
does not mean economic loss caused by dela}'s in production.
b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded,
but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not
subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c. and d. of this section.
c. Notice
(1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior
notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the
anticipated quality and affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part
II, E. 5. of this permit. (24-hour notice). _
d. Prohibition of Bypass
(1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a
permittee for bypass, unless:
(a) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage;
(b) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities,
retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This
condition is i�ot �atisfied if adequate bacl:up equipr:�ent should ;.ave bcen installed in the exercise of '
reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment
downtime or preeentive maintenance; and
(c) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects,
if the Permit Issuing�Authorifiy determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in
Paragraph d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsets
a. Definition.
"Upset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance
with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of
the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error,
improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive
maintenance, or careless or improper operation.
b. Effect of an upset.
An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology
based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. No
determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset,
and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review.
Page 9 of 14
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset.
