This permit supersedes an earlier SDS permit that was issued on April 2, 2010. No written comments were received during the public notice comment period for the draft permit. It is the responsibility of the Permittee to maintain compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this permit. Please carefully review the entire permit. A "Submittals and Actions Checklist” that is specific for your facility is also enclosed for your use. You may find this checklist to be a convenient tool in tracking the due dates and status of submittals required by the final issued permit. Special attention should be directed to the following: Limits and Monitoring Requirements Phosphorus Monitoring for total phosphorus is included in your permit. The following information provides you with additional information about phosphorus monitoring. All phosphorus samples must be analyzed by a certified laboratory and the data submitted to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). If your laboratory would like more information about becoming certified, please call the Environmental Laboratory Certification Unit at 612-676-5200. Samples must be collected in a clean bottle (preferably cleaned by a certified laboratory) that was not washed with phosphate detergent. Also, a sulfuric acid preservative must be added immediately after the sample is collected, and it must be stored at four degrees Celsius until analysis. If a contract laboratory is used, the bottle and preservative would typically be provided by the laboratory analyzing the sample. Ms. Kristina Handt Page 2 March 18. 2015 Nitrogen Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen monitoring has been added to the WS002 station in addition to the Total Nitrogen and Total Nitrite plus Nitrate monitoring requirements. Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen has been added to provide the Permittee with the necessary data to properly calculate and report Total Nitrogen. Total Nitrogen should be reported as the summation of Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen and Total Nitrite plus Nitrate. Flow Monitoring Flow limits and monitoring have been moved from waste stream station WS002 to station WS001. It is MPCA's policy to require flow monitoring at the influent station for these large subsurface treatment systems (LSTS). Monitoring Frequency The monitoring frequency for waste stream station WS001 has increased from quarterly to monthly. This is the MPCA standard monitoring frequency for Class D subsurface systems. Chapter 1: Compliance Schedule This chapter outlines the requirements for a Nitrogen Mitigation Plan and a final report. These requirements are in response to elevated nitrate levels detected in the on-site monitoring well GW004. Chapter 3: Ground Water Stations All piezometer separation to ground water measurements must be reported in inches on the discharge monitoring reports. Chapter 4: Large Subsurface Treatment System All LSTS facilities are required to have one of the certified operators also certified as a Service Provider. This requirement must be maintain throughout the life of the permit. Chapter 5: Biosolids-Domestic Septage (No Analysis Required) You must obtain approval of the sites on which biosolids are applied before they are applied. This permit chapter also requires biosolids to be treated to meet specific standards, and specifies monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, and general requirements for biosolids that are applied to the land. Chapter 6: Pretreatment New state pretreatment rules, Minn. R. ch. 7049, are now effective and their requirements are incorporated into this chapter.

Submit the sampling results on the Release Sampling Form (http://www.pca.state.mn.us/index.php/view-document.html?gid=18867). The Release Sampling Form shall be submitted to the MPCA with the next DMR or within 30 days whichever is sooner. Bypass 1.37 Anticipated bypass. The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if the bypass is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation of the facility. The permittee shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass to the MPCA (40 CFR 122.41(m)(2) and 122.41(m)(3) and Minn. R. Ch. 7001.1090, subp. 1, J). The notice of the need for an anticipated bypass shall include the following information. a. The proposed date and estimated duration of the bypass; b. The alternatives to bypassing; and c. A proposal for effluent sampling during the bypass. Any bypass wastewater must enter waters of the state from outfalls specifically authorized by this permit. Therefore, samples shall be collected at the frequency and location identified in this permit or two times per week for as long as the bypass continues, whichever is more frequent. 1.38 All other bypasses are prohibited. The MPCA may take enforcement action against the Permittee for a bypass, unless the specific conditions described in Minn. R. Ch. 7001.1090 subp. 1, K and 122.41(m)(4)(i) are met. In the event of an unanticipated bypass, the permittee shall: a. Take all reasonable steps to immediately end the bypass. b. Notify the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Duty Officer at 1(800)422-0798 or (651)649-5451 (metro area) immediately upon commencement of the bypass. You may contact the MPCA during business hours at 1(800)657-3864 or (651)296-6300 (metro area). (Minn. Stat. Sec 115.061) c. Immediately take action as may be reasonably possible to minimize or abate pollution to waters of the state or potential impacts to human health caused thereby. If directed by the MPCA, the Permittee shall consult with other local, state or federal agencies for implementation of abatement, clean-up, or remediation activities. d. Only allow bypass wastewater as specified in this section to enter waters of the state from outfalls specifically authorized by this permit. Samples shall be collected at the frequency and location identified in this permit or two times per week for as long as the bypass continues, whichever is more frequent. The permittee shall also follow the reporting requirements for effluent violations as specified in this permit.

General Requirements Operation and Maintenance 1.39 The Permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain the facilities and systems of treatment and control, and the appurtenances related to them which are installed or used by the Permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Proper operation and maintenance includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate operator staffing and training, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including appropriate quality assurance procedures. The Permittee shall install and maintain appropriate backup or auxiliary facilities if they are necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit and, for all permits other than hazardous waste facility permits, if these backup or auxiliary facilities are technically and economically feasible Minn. R. 7001.0150. subp. 3, item F. 1.40 In the event of a reduction or loss of effective treatment of wastewater at the facility, the Permittee shall control production or curtail its discharges to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The Permittee shall continue this control or curtailment until the wastewater treatment facility has been restored or until an alternative method of treatment is provided. (Minn. R. 7001.1090, subp. 1, item C) 1.41 Solids Management. The Permittee shall properly store, transport, and dispose of biosolids, septage, sediments, residual solids, filter backwash, lime waste, screenings, oil, grease, and other substances so that pollutants do not enter surface waters or ground waters of the state. Solids should be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal requirements. (40 CFR 503 and Minn. R. 7041 and applicable federal and state solid waste rules) 1.42 Scheduled Maintenance. The Permittee shall schedule maintenance of the treatment works during non-critical water quality periods to prevent degradation of water quality, except where emergency maintenance is required to prevent a condition that would be detrimental to water quality or human health. ( Minn. R. 7001.0150. subp. 3, item F and Minn. R. 7001.0150. subp. 2, item B) 1.43 Control Tests. In -plant control tests shall be conducted at a frequency adequate to ensure compliance with the conditions of this permit. (Minn. R. 7001.0150. subp. 3, item F and Minn. R. 7001.0150. subp. 2, item B) Changes to the Facility or Permit 1.44 Except as provided under Minnesota Statutes, section 115.07, subdivisions 1 and 3, no person required by statute or rule to obtain a permit may construct, install, modify, or operate the facility to be permitted, nor shall a person commence an activity for which a permit is required by statute or rule until the agency has issued a written permit for the facility or activity. (Minn. R. 7001.0030) Permittees that propose to make a change to a facility or discharge that requires a permit modification must follow Minn. R. 7001.0190. If the Permittee cannot determine whether a permit modification is needed, the Permittee must contact the MPCA prior to any action. It is recommended that the application for permit modification be submitted to the MPCA at least 180 days prior to the planned change. 1.45 Submittal of plans and specifications for MPCA approval is not required for routine maintenance work. Routine maintenance work means installation of new equipment to replace worn out or broken items, provided the new equipment is the same design size and has the same design intent. For instance, a broken sewer pipe, a worn out lift station pump, or a malfunctioning aerator or blower can be replaced with the same design -sized equipment (or pipe) without MPCA approval. If the proposed construction is not expressly authorized by this permit, it may require a permit modification. If the construction project requires an Environmental Assessment Worksheet under Minn. R. 4410, no construction shall begin until a negative declaration is issued and all approvals are received or implemented. 1.46 Report Changes. The Permittee shall give advance notice as soon as possible to the MPCA of any substantial changes in operational procedures, activities that may alter the nature or frequency of the discharge, and/or material factors that may affect compliance with the conditions of this permit. (Minn. R. 7001.0150, subp. 3, item M) Permit Issued: March 18, 2015 Bliss Collector WWTP Page 25 Permit Expires: February 29, 2020 Permit #: MN0054119 Chapter 7. Total Facility Requirements 1. General Requirements 1.47 Chemical Additives. The Permittee shall receive prior written approval from the MPCA before increasing the use of a chemical additive authorized by this permit, or using a chemical additive not authorized by this permit, in quantities or concentrations that have the potential to change the characteristics, nature and/or quality of the discharge. The Permittee shall request approval for an increased or new use of a chemical additive at least 60 days, or as soon as possible, before the proposed increased or new use. This written request shall include at least the following information for the proposed additive: a. The process for which the additive will be used; b. Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) which shall include aquatic toxicity, human health, and environmental fate information for the proposed additive. The aquatic toxicity information shall include at minimum the results of. a) a 48-hour LC50 or EC50 acute study for a North American freshwater planktonic crustacean (either Ceriodaphnia or Daphnia sp.) and b) a 96 -hour LC50 acute study for rainbow trout, bluegill or fathead minnow or another North Arn&ican freshwater aquatic species other than a planktonic crustacean; c. A complete product use and instruction label; d. The commercial and chemical names and Chemical Abstract Survey (CAS) number for all ingredients in the additive (If the MSDS does not include information on chemical composition, including percentages for each ingredient totaling to 100%, the Permittee shall contact the supplier to have this information provided); and e. The proposed method of application, application frequency, concentration, and daily average and maximum rates of use. (Minn. R. 7001.0170) 1.48 Upon review of the information submitted regarding the proposed chemical additive, the MPCA may require additional information be submitted for consideration. This permit may be modified to restrict the use or discharge of a chemical additive and include additional influent and effluent monitoring requirements. Approval for the use of an additive shall not justify the exceedance of any effluent limitation nor shall it be used as a defense against pollutant levels in the discharge causing or contributing to the violation of a water quality standard. 1.49 MPCA Initiated Permit Modification, Suspension, or Revocation. The MPCA may modify or revoke and reissue this permit pursuant to Minn. R. 7001.0170. The MPCA may revoke without reissuance this permit pursuant to Minn. R. 7001.0180. 1.50 TMDL Impacts. Facilities that discharge to an impaired surface water, watershed or drainage basin may be required to comply with additional permits or permit requirements, including additional restriction or relaxation of limits and monitoring as authorized by the CWA 303(d)(4)(A) and 40 CFR 122.44.1.2.1., necessary to ensure consistency with the assumptions and requirements of any applicable US EPA approved wasteload allocations resulting from Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) studies. 1.51 Permit Transfer. The permit is not transferable to any person without the express written approval of the Agency after compliance with the requirements of Minn. R. 7001.0190. A person to whom the permit has been transferred shall comply with the conditions of the permit. (Minn. R., 7001.0150, subp. 3, item N) Permit Issued: March 18, 2015 Bliss Collector WWTP Page 26 Permit Expires: February 29, 2020 Permit #: MN0054119 Chapter 7. Total Facility Requirements 1. General Requirements 1.52 Facility Closure. The Permittee is responsible for closure and post -closure care of the facility. The Permittee shall notify the MPCA of a significant reduction or cessation of the activities described in this permit at least 180 days before the reduction or cessation. The MPCA may require the Permittee to provide to the MPCA a facility Closure Plan for approval. Facility closure that could result in a potential long-term- water quality concern, such as the ongoing discharge of wastewater to surface or ground water, may require a permit modification or reissuance. The MPCA may require the Permittee to establish and maintain financial assurance to ensure performance of certain obligations under this permit, including closure, post -closure care and remedial action at the facility. If financial assurance is required, the amount and type of financial assurance, and proposed modifications to previously MPCA-approved financial assurance, shall be approved by the MPCA. (Minn. Stat. Sec. 116.07, subd. 4) 1.53 Permit Reissuance. If the Permittee desires to continue permit coverage beyond the date of permit expiration, the Permittee shall submit an application for reissuance at least 180 days before permit expiration. If the Permittee does not intend to continue the activities authorized by this permit after the expiration date of this permit, the Permittee shall notify the MPCA in writing at least 180 days before permit expiration. If the Permittee has submitted a timely application for permit reissuance, the Permittee may continue to conduct the activities authorized by this permit, in compliance with the requirements of this permit, until the MPCA takes final action on the application, unless the MPCA determines any of the following (Minn. R. 7001.0040 and 7001.0160): a. The Permittee is not in substantial compliance with the requirements of this permit, or with a stipulation agreement or compliance schedule designed to bring the Permittee into compliance with this permit; b.
