Further, a TPDES Permit Compliance Evaluation Inspector (TPDES CEI Inspector) will conduct routine and follow-up inspections for this facility and report subsequent findings to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the TPDES Permit Administrator. The TPDES Permit Administrator and CEI Inspector are the authorized twicamtatives of the Commissioner of DPNR for the sole purpose of insuring the following special conditions: I. This permit is for a five year period. Within that period, the Pertain= is required to report any management changes by submitting an updated EPA Form I. An annual re-certification must be performed if there are any management changes at the pet:minces facility.

King Airport, Terminal Building, 2rd Floor St. Thomas, VI 00802 3. Quality assurance practices. The Pennine is required to show the validity of all data by requiring its laboratory to adhere to the following minimum quality assurance practices: a. Duplicate' and spiked2 samples must be run for each constituent analyzed for permit compliance on 5% of the samples, or at least on one (I) sample per month, whichever is greater. If analysis frequency is less than one (1) sample per month duplicate and spiked samples must be run for each analysis. b. For spiked samples, a known amount of each constituent is to be added to the discharge sample. The amount of constituent added should be approximately the same amount present in the unspiked sample, or must be approximately that stated as maximum or average in the discharge permit c. The data obtained in 3. a. above shall be summarized in an annual report submitted at the end of the fourth quarter of reporting in terms of precision, percent recovery, and the number of duplicate and spiked samples run. d. Precision for each parameter shall be calculated by the formula, standard deviation s = (❑ D1/2K)1'2, where "D" is the difference between duplicate results, and "K" is the number of duplicate pairs used in the calculation. Duplicate samples are not requited for the following perameets: Color, Temperature Turbidity. 2 Spiked samples are not required for the following parameters listed in Table 1 of 40 CFR 135: Acidity, Alkalinity, Bacterloiogical, Brinddine, Chlorine, Color, Dissolved Oxygen, Hardness, pH, Og i Grease, Radiological, Residues, Temperature, Turbidity. Procedures for spiking simples and spiked save requirements for parameters not listed on the above referenced table are available through EPA's Regional Quality Assurance Coordketor. EFTA01222366 Page 6 Part II e. Percent recovery for each parameter shall be calculated by the formula R = 100 (F IYA, where "F" is the analytical result of the spiked sample, and "I" is the result before spiking the sample, and "A" is the amount of constituent added to the sample. 1. The percent recovery," R", for each parameter in 3. e. above shall be summarized yearly in terms of nil percent recovery and standard deviation from the mean. The formula, s = f0(x_0)2/ )1"2, where "s" is the standard deviation around the mean "0", "x" is an individual recovery value, and "n" is the number of data points which shall be applied. g The Permittee or his contract laboratory is required to annually analyze an external quality control reference sample for each pollutant. These are available through the Regional Quality Assurance Coordinator, Region II, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Edison Environmental Laboratory, Edison, New Jersey 08817. h. The Permittee and/or his contract laboratory is required to maintain records of the specific analytical methods used, including options employed, if any, within a particular method, and of reagent standardization and equipment calibration operations. i. If a contract laboratory is utilized, the Permittee shall submit the name and address of the laboratory and the parameters analyzed at the time it submits its discharge monitoring reports (see Section 8.2.b. above). Any change in the contract laboratory being used or the parameters analyzed shall be reported prior to or together with the monitoring report covering the period during which the change was made.

The intake water source must be drawn from the same body of water into which the discharge is made; and EFTA01222369 Page 9 Part II b. In cases where the surface water body intake source is pretreated for the removal of pollutants, the intake level of a pollutant to be used in calculating the net is that level contained after the pretreatment steps. 13. "Regional Administrator" means the Regional Administrator of Region II of EPA or the authorized representative of the Regional Administrator. 14. "Severe property damage" means that substantial physical damage to the treatment facilities which would cause them to become inoperable or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass.
