Enclosed are our findings and supporting information. Item 1 Field Summary Forms for application sites owned by Wilkes County Landfill, specifically Tract 12, Field #5947 and Tract 21, Field #9513 either failed to specify or indicated "new ground" as the target crop by which agronomic rates were calculated. Permit Condition Part II. (10.) provides various options by which agronomic rates may be calculated, none of which provide calculations associated with "new ground" and all of which require a target crop be specified to determine expected nitrogen requirements based on Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE). Please provide an explanation and/or justification for the PAN rate associated with "new ground" and/or report the missing crop information by which the Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) rate was calculated for the above listed fields. Response Land Application at the Wilkes County Solid Waste Landfill consists of applying bulk residuals on fill dirt in a field or on closed cells of the landfill. The closed cells consist of bare soil with no crop. Our bulk residuals are used to establish top soil to support a cover crop. The target crop is Fescue and has been identified on both field sheets 4910-12-5947 & 4910-21-9513. The Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) is set at 149 lbs./acre. Neither location exceeded Agronomic Rates in 2019. See attached field sheets. Item 2 Non-compliance was reported on the Class A Annual Distribution and Marketing/Surface Disposal Certification and Summary Form, related to exceedances of Groundwater Standards [15A NCAC 02L .0202 (h) (111)] for Nitrate (NO3) in monitoring wells DS1-MW4, DS1-MW5, and DS1-MW9 for monitoring events conducted during calendar year 2019. The Permittee also Louisiana-Pacific Corporation T336-696-2751 LPCorp.com� 1068 ABTCO Road F 33"96-3 12 North Wilkesboro, NC 28659 indicated that this matter continues to be studied in conjunction with the NCDEQ aquifer Protection Section. Please provide and update of all findings and if applicable, include any descriptions/detail of additional remediation/monitoring planned to be conducted with projected schedules of implementation. Response No Land Application has occurred for more than ten years on field 1228-10387- 25 of which all Groundwater monitoring wells are located except for DS1- MW3 which is located above the monitored area. NCDEQ Aquifer Protection Section conducted a groundwater study and in 2018 relinquished all monitoring of wells DS1-MWI, DS1-MW3, DS1-MW4, DS1-MW5, DS1-MW6, and DS1- MW9 to Louisiana Pacific Corp. This historical exceedance is currently being monitored annually (September) per permit WQ0000461. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you for this opportunity to respond to the items identified in your letter.
