Class A water treatment plant residuals are exempt from meeting the pathogen & vector attraction reduction requirements in Condition IV.4, provided they are not mixed with residuals that have been generated during the treatment of domestic wastewater, the treatment of animal processing wastewater, or the biological treatment of industrial wastewater. The Class A water treatment plant residuals must be treated and processed in a manner as to not meet the definition of “Biological Residuals” as defined in 15A NCAC 02T .1102(6). 7. Residuals are generated during the biological treatment of industrial wastewater with an estimated 1% domestic waste stream contribution, and meet the definition of “Biological Residuals” as defined in 15A NCAC 02T .1102(6). However, it was demonstrated that the residuals are pathogen free and are not required to monitor for Vector Attraction Reduction in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .1107(c) provided that no significant odor complaints or problems with vector attraction are encountered at the land application site and Fecal Coliform Concentrations remain less than 1,000 MPN per dry gram of residuals If no land application events occur during a required sampling period (e.g., no land application occur during an entire year when annual monitoring is required), then no sampling data is required during the period of inactivity. The annual report shall include an explanation for missing sampling data. Those required to submit the annual report to United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) may be required to make up the missed sampling.

The purpose of this modification is to increase the dry ton limits so that EMA Resources can land apply those solids. This will be a one-time modification and we will submit a modification to lower the limit after the solids have been handled. We are requesting 1600 dry tons as that will handle sampling up to 4 samples per year. e •' M ANALYTICAL. & CONSULTING CHEMISTS Guilford East 1754 NC HWY 903 Kenansville NC Attention: George Yankay Lab ID Sample ID: 22-07209 Site: Sludge Test Enviroinmental Chemists, Inc. 6602 Windmill Way, Wilmington, NC 28405 • 910.392.0223 Lab • 910.392.4424 Fax 710 Bowsertown Road, Manteo, NC 27954 ° 252.473.5702 Lab/Fax 255-A Wilmington Highway, Jacksonville, NC 28540 • 910.347.5843 Lab/Fax info@environmentalchemists.com Date of Report: Mar 15, 2022 Customer PO M 28349 Customer ID: 11030018 Report M 2022-03049 Project ID: Sludge Chlordane (TCLP) Endrin (TCLP) Heptachlor (TCLP) Heptachlor epoxide (TCLP) Lindane (TCLP) Methoxychlor (TCLP) Toxaphene(TCLP) 2,4,5-TP (TCLP) 2,4-D (TCLP) 1,4-Dichlorobenzene (TCLP) 2,4,5-Trichlorophenol(TCLP) 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol (TCLP) 2,4-Dinitrotoluene (TCLP) Cresol (TCLP) Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene (TCLP) Hexachlorobenzene (TCLP) Hexachloroethane (TCLP) m + p-Cresol (TCLP) Nitrobenzene (TCLP) o-Cresol (TCLP) Pentachlorophenol (TCLP) Pyridine (TCLP) _ 1, 1 -Dichloroethylene (TCLP) 1,2-Dichloroethane (TCLP) Benzene (TCLP) Carbon Tetrachloride (TCLP) Collect Date/Time Matrix 2/17/2022 10:45 AM Solid/Sludge Method SW-5468081 B SW-8468081B SW-846 8081 B SW-646 8081 B SW-846 8061 B SW-B46 8081 B SW-8468081B SW-846 8151 A SW-846 8151 A SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E S W4146 8270 E SW-846 6270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 8270 E SW-846 Method 8260D SW-846 Method 8250D SW-846 Method 82600 SW-846 Method a260D Results <0.02 mg/L <0.0005 mg/L <0.0005 mg/L <0.0005 mg/L <0.0005 mg/L <0.0005 mg/L <0.05 mg/L <0.003 mg/L <0.003 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.250 mg/L <0.050 mg/L <0.01 mg/L <0.01 mg/L <0.01 mg/L <0.01 mg/L Sampled by Dale Johnson Date Analyzec 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 02/28/2022 03/02/2022 03/02/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03101 /2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03101 /2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 03/01/2022 Report#. 2022-03049 Pagel of 'AdININK Environmental Chemists, Inc.
