herewith Permit No. WQ0003487, dated December 21, 2007, to Novozymes North America, Inc. for the
continued operation of the subject distribution and land application of residuals solids program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until November 30, 2012, shall void
Permit No. WQ0003487 issued July 16, 2004, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as
specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring requirements in this permit. Failure to
establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational information will
result in future compliance problems.
The Novozymes North America, Inc. residuals covered by this permit are unique in the low
pollutant concentrations and presumed absence of pathogens. However, please note that the residuals
disposed of may not meet all the necessary requirements for "Class A residuals" and shall not be referred
to as "Class A" residuals. The application for renewal of this permit received on February 3, 2005 was
not received six months prior to the expiration date of April 30, 2005. Please pay particular attention to
permit condition 1.3 which requires the Permittee to request renewal of this permit no later than six
months prior to the expiration of this permit.
This permit is being issued to approve the continued operation of the residuals distribution/land
application program for another five-year cycle. Please note that on September 1, 2006 State
Administrative Code 15A NCAC Subchapter 02T — Waste not Discharged to Surface Water was adopted.
This permit incorporates the requirement of these rules. Remember to take the time to review this
permit thoroughly, as some of the conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or
deleted from those in previously issued permits. Please pay particular attention to the monthly residuals
monitoring requirement of Permit Condition IV.2 which is required to verify compliance with the Ceiling
and Monthly Average Concentrations of residuals required by Permit Condition 11.3.

7. Specific residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land application
site prior to and during a bulk residuals land application event.
8. Bulk residuals and other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) shall be land applied to all land
application sites at or below agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using
expected nitrogen requirements based on the Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) for each approved
land application site. Realistic Yield Expectations for crop types and specific fields or soils types
shall be determined by using any of the following methods:
a. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as provided by North Carolina
State University Department of Soil Science. The Department webpage is located at:
ht!R://www.soil.nesu.edWnm
p/nenmwgLyields/
b. Site Specific Historical Data for crop types on specific fields or soil types by calculating the mean
of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field.
c. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods 8(a) or (b) above, RYE can be established from
specially developed soil interpretation records for Nutrient Management Planning, Farm Service
Agency Records, university trials, or inference from crop performance on soil with very similar
physical and chemical features.
WQ0003487 Version 2.0 Shell Version 070228 Page 4 of 1 I
d. Realistic Yields Expectations and acceptable nitrogen application rates that use the above
methodology are required parts of many agricultural planning documents. The Permittee may use
the RYE and appropriate agronomic rates reported in any of the following documents:
i. Crop management plan as outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource
Conservation Service, or other agronomist.
ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group- Guidance
Document: Chapter 1. Guidance for the completion of the plan can be found at:
hM://www.enr.state.ne.us/DSWC/Raizes/guidance docs.html.
iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by Natural Resources Conservation
Services (MRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
Standards, which are available at:
ftp://ftp-fe.se.egoy.usda.gov/NHQ/practice-standards/standards/5 90.pdf
e. For any crop type for which the RYE and appropriate nitrogen application rate cannot be
determined, the Permittee shall contact the Division to determine necessary action.
If the land application sites are to be oversecded (e.g., bermuda grass in the summer and rye grass in
the winter with BOTH crops to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive an application of
PAN at a rate of no greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. This practice shall be allowed as long
as the second crop is to be harvested. If the second crop is to be planted for erosion control only and
is to be tilled into the soil, then no residuals shall be land applied to these sites because the PAN will
essentially be returned to the soil.
Prior to application of PAN to permitted sites at rates exceeding the agronomic rate, the Permittee
must submit and receive approval by the Division.
10. Should the residuals generated contain a high salt content (i.e., high sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of
ten (10) or higher), the Permittee shall obtain and implement recommendations from the local
Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural
Resource Conservation Service, a North Carolina -licensed Soil Scientist, or other agronomist
regarding sodium application rate, soil amendments (e.g., gypsum, etc.) or other ameliorative
mechanism for maintaining the integrity of the site in terms of suitability for land application of
residuals and maintaining conditions conducive to crop growth. The Permittee shall maintain written
records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and rate of soil amendment
application.
11. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for residuals land application programs is specified by regulations
in 15A NCAC 2L (i.e., "Groundwater Classifications and Standards"). The Compliance Boundary
for each land application site is established at either 250 feet from the residuals land application area
or 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the residuals land application area.
Per 15A NCAC 2T .0105(h), upon the request by the Permittee the Compliance Boundary may be
located closer to the waste disposal area (provided the groundwater standards can be met at the newly
established Compliance Boundary). Any approved relocation of the COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY
will be noted in this permit. An exceedance of Groundwater Standards at or beyond the Compliance
Boundary is subject to remediation action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(2) as well as
enforcement actions in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-
215.6C.
WQ0003487 Version 2.0 Shell Version 070228 Page 5 of 11
12. The REVIEW BOUNDARY shall be established around each land application site midway between
the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the residuals land application area. Any exceedance
of Groundwater Quality Standards at the Review Boundary shall require action in accordance with
15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(1).
13. All land application of bulk residuals shall be conducted by Novozymes North America, Inc.
employees or personnel contracted for this purpose by Novozymes North America, Inc. and
supervised by the ORC or backup ORC as specified by permit condition III.3.
14. The bulls residuals shall be transported to the application sites by truck and shall be applied to the
fields by a manure spreader appropriate for the liquid, solid or semi -solid residuals.
15. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated residuals or leachate from the residual treatment facilities is
prohibited.
16. Residuals shall not be stored nor land applied in areas of intense public use, such as schools,
playgrounds, etc.
17. No residuals shall be land applied in WS-1 watersheds.
111. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The residuals management program shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times as a non -
discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of this program.
The Permittee shall maintain an Operation and Maintenance Plan pursuant to 15A NCAC 02T .1110
including operational functions, maintenance schedules, safety measures, and a spill response plan.
2. In the event that the residuals management program is not operated satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall cease land applying residuals to the site, contact
the Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division of Water Quality's (Division) regional
office, and take any immediate corrective actions as may be required by the Division.
3. Upon classification of the residuals management program by the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate a certified land
application/residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the program. The operator shall
hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the program by the WPCSOCC. The Permittee
shall also designate a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to comply with the conditions
of 15A NCAC 8G .0201.
4. This permit shall become voidable if the soils of the land application sites fail to assimilate the bulk
residuals or the application causes contravention of surface water or groundwater standards and may
be rescinded unless the land application sites are maintained and operated in a manner that will
protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and groundwater.
5. A copy of this permit shall be maintained in all manned equipment at the land application sites when
residuals are being land applied during the life of this permit. A spill prevention and control plan
shall be maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles.
6. Adequate provisions shall be taken to prevent wind erosion and surface runoff from conveying
residuals from the land application sites onto adjacent properties or into any surface waters.
WQ0003487 Version 2.0 Shell Version 070228 Page 6 of 11
7. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land applied or
stored residuals into any surface waters.
8. All residuals shall be adequately stored to prevent leachate runoff until treated. The finished product
may be placed on a concrete pad, placed under shelter or covered until such time as it is distributed to
the buyer. If an alternate storage site is to be used, approval must be obtained from the Division. The
finished product residuals may not be stored greater than sixty days.
9. Bulk residuals shall not be applied to the land under the following conditions:
a. If the residuals are likely to adversely affect a threatened or endangered species listed under
section 4 of the Endangered Species or its designated critical habitat;
b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions;
c. If the land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of
surface water or groundwater standards;
d. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of
the residuals would occur;
e. Within the I00-year flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within a
24-hour period following the residuals land application event;
f. During a measurable precipitation event (i.e., >.01" per hour) or within 24 hours following a
rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land
application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division;
g. If the slope for land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied, and
if the slope of the land is greater then 18 percent with bulk liquid residuals are injected or
incorporated;
h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on land
application sites onto which residuals are applied. Residuals may be applied to the sites provided
that sufficient amounts of lime is also applied to achieve a final pH of the soil mixture of at least
6.0, or if an agronomist provides information indicating that the pH of the soil, residuals, and lime
mixture is suited for the specified crop type.
i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover in accordance with the crop management
plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist unless the
bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application
event or injected;
j . If the vertical separation of the seasonal high Water table and the depth of residuals application is
less than one foot;
k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less than
one foot;
10. This permit shall become voidable unless the agreements between the Permittee and the landowners
and lessees or operators of any land application sites not owned by the Permittee are in full force and
effect. These agreements shall be considered expired concurrent with the expiration date of the
permit and shall be renewed at the same time the permit is renewed.
WQ0003487 Version 2.0 Shell Version 070228 Page 7 of 11
11. Upon entering an agreement with landowners to apply residuals to a land application site, the
Permittee shall require of the landowner or lessee/operator a statement detailing the volume of
nutrient sources (waste residuals, manufactured fertilizers, manures, or other animal waste products)
other than the residuals to be applied by the Permittee, that have been applied to the land, and a copy
of the most recent Nutrient Management Plan (NMP), if available, for the fields within the agreement.
For the purpose of this permit condition, a Crop Management Plan (CMP), Waste Utilization
Plan (WUP) or Certified Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) shall also be considered a
Nutrient Management Plan.
The NMPs must be provided only for those operations where a NMP (also CMP, WUP, or CLAMP) is
required by the US Department of Agriculture — National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) or
other State Agencies. The Permittee shall rely on the provided information to calculate appropriate
reductions in allowable nutrient loading rates. If the calculation shows that the agronomic rates
(including PAN) have already been met or exceeded on a field, no additional residuals shall be land
applied to that field.
IV. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
1. Any monitoring (i.e., including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses)
deemed necessary by the Division to ensure protection of the environment shall' be established, and
an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed.
2. An analysis shall be conducted on the residuals monthly. The sampling conducted for this
monitoring shall be conducted on the residuals at the point they are ready for land application or
