Agronomist's Comments;
ATTENTION: This report was flagged with a "C" and/or "Z" to alert you that copper and/or zinc have accumulated in the soil and are approaching a level that could be detrimental to
crop production. The C and Z symbols are printed on your report for soil test index levels of 2000 or more; for peanuts with zinc, the level is 250. This note is designed to be a "trigger"
that allows enough time to either reduce the rate of application or find another field for application of biosolids and/or waste water. The CTL (critical toxic level) for Cu & Zn has
been set at 3000 index; for peanuts with zinc, the level is 500. These levels are used by DENR as a benchmark to determine when application of waste products should be stopped.
The CTL for copper and zinc Was set to prevent levels from accumulating to the point where they become toxic to crops grown on a field.

historical land application events of residuals, or
b. For land where residuals application have not occurred or for which the required data is
incomplete, by determining background concentrations through representative soil sampling.
6. Residuals that are land applied shall meet Class B pathogen reduction requirements in 15A NCAC
02T .1106 (a) and (c). Exceptions to this requirement shall be specified in Attachment A.
7. Biological residuals (i.e. residuals generated during the treatment of domestic or animal processing
wastewater, or the biological treatment of industrial wastewater, and as identified in Attachment A)
that are land applied shall meet one of the vector attraction reduction alternatives in 15A NCAC 02T
.1107(a). Exceptions to this requirement shall be specified in Attachment A.

standards at the review boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0106.
II1. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The residuals management program shall be properly maintained and operated at all times. The
program shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -discharge system to prevent any
contravention of surface water or groundwater standards.
2. The Fayetteville Regional Office shall be notified via email or telephone, (910) 433-3300, at least 24
hours prior to conducting any land application activity. Such notification shall indicate, at a
minimum, the anticipated application times, field IDs, and location of land application activities. If it
becomes necessary to apply to additionaI fields due to unforeseen events, the Regional Office shall be
notified prior to commencing the application to those fields.
3. The Permittee shall maintain an approved Operation and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan) pursuant to
15A NCAC 02T .1110. Modifications to the O&M Plan shall be approved by the Division prior to
utilization of the new plan. The O&M Plan, at the minimum, shall include:
a) Operational functions;
b) Maintenance schedules;
c) Safety measures;
d) Spill response plan;
e) Inspection plan including the following information:
i. Names and/or titles of personnel responsible for conducting the inspections;
ii. Frequency and location of inspections, including those to be conducted by the ORC, and
procedures to assure that the selected location(s) and inspection frequency are representative
of the residuals management program;

12. Bulk residuals and other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) shall not be applied in
exceedance of agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using expected
nitrogen requirements based on the determined Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) using any of the
following methods:
a. Division's pre -approved site specific historical data for specific crop or soil types by calculating
the mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field.
b. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as provided by North Carolina
State University Department of Soil Science htt://nutrients.soil.ncsu.i du/ 'elds/index. h .
A copy shall be kept on file and reprinted every five years in accordance with Condition IV.6.
c. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods (a) or (b) above, the Permittee may use the RYE
and appropriate nutrient application rates reported in any of the following documents:
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 the Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group - Guidance
Document: Chapter 1
(http:/lwww.nca r.gQv/SWC/tech/documents/9th Guidance Doc 100109.pdfl.
iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by the Natural Resources Conservation
Services (MRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
Standards (fly://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda.gov/NHQ practice-standards/standards/590.pdf.).
d. If the RYE and appropriate nutrient application rates cannot be determined, the Permittee shall
contact the Division to determine necessary action.
13. When residuals are land applied to grazed pasture, hay crop realistic nitrogen rate shall be reduced by
25% in accordance with the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management Standards.
14. If land application sites are to be over -seeded or double -cropped (e.g., bermudagrass in the summer
and rye grass in the winter with both crops to receive residuals), then the second crop can receive an
application of PAN at a rate not to exceed 50 pounds per acre per year (lbs/ac/yr). This practice may
be allowed as long as the second crop is to be harvested or grazed. If the second crop is to be planted
for erosion control only and is to be tilled into the soil, then no additional PAN shall be applied.
15. Prior to land application of residuals containing a sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of 10 or higher, the
Permittee shall obtain and implement recommendations from at least one of the following: the local
Cooperative Extension Office; the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services; the Natural
Resource Conservation Service; a North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist; or an agronomist. The
recommendations shall address the sodium application rate, soil amendments (e.g., gypsum, etc.), or a
mechanism for maintaining site integrity and conditions conducive to crop growth. The Permittee
shall maintain written records of these recommendations and details of their implementation.
16. The compliance boundary for residual land application sites shall be specified in accordance with
15A NCAC 02L .0107(b). These sites were individually permitted on or after December 30, 1983;
therefore, the compliance boundary is established at either 250 feet from the residual land application
area, or 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the residual land application
area. An exceedance of groundwater standards at or beyond the compliance boundary is subject to
remediation action according to 15A NCAC 02L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in
accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C. Any approved
relocation of the COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY will be noted in Attachment B.

Dear Mr. Gatewood:
In accordance with your permit renewal application package received on May 23, 2005 as well as
the additional information received on October 3, 2006 and February 23, 2007; we are forwarding
herewith a renewed Permit No. WQ0006438, dated March 30, 2007, to Anson County for the subject
residuals land application program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until February 29, 2012; shall void the
June 13, 2003 issuance of Permit No. WQ0006438; and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations
as specified therein. Make note of this permit's expiration date and the fact that a permit renewal
application is due to the Division of Water Quality (Division) no later than six months prior to that date
(i.e., see Condition VI.7.), as the Division does not send reminders to apply for permit renewal.
This permit approves the continued operation of the residuals land application program for
another five-year cycle. Also, with this permit issuance, the acreage of Field 1 at Anson county WWTP is
being adjusted from 20.00 to 13.25 acres, a total of 139.45 acres are being renewed and 28.10 acres of
existing land (Field 9-1, 9-2, and 9-3) are being deleted.
As always, remember to take the time to review this permit thoroughly, as some of the
conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or deleted since the last issuance. 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. Of special interest to you may be the following:
♦ According to the result of the residuals analysis from Meretech, Inc. dated February 17, 2005,
the residuals contain a high salt content (i.e., sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of five or
higher). Please pay particular attention to the Condition 1I. 10., regarding the specified
requirement for the residuals with SAR of five or higher.
Condition III., regarding monitoring and reporting requirements. Please contact the Land
Application Unit if you have any questions regarding the annual report preparation and

9. An acceptable pH shall be maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0,
on all land application sites onto which residuals are land applied to ensure optimum yield for
the crops specified in Condition 11. 13. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH
best suited for the specified crop and the soil type.
10. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facilities listed in the
most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high
sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of five or higher), the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP)
or other method as approved by the Division, using the results from the annual soils analysis
as required by this permit, shall be monitored on all of the land application sites. 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 shall review the results and make recommendations regarding 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 implement such recommendations accordingly and shall
maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and
rate of soil amendment application.
11. Prior to land applying residuals to any land application site that has previously received or is
intended to receive animal waste (e.g., poultry litter, etc.) or other source of nutrients (e.g.,
fertilizer, etc.) in the future, the Permittee shall obtain information pertaining to the volume
and analysis of the applied waste/nutrients from the landowner and/or lessee/operator of the
site. The Permittee shall be responsible for verifying the volume of residuals that may be land
applied to the site such that the plant available nitrogen (PAN) loading rate for the specified
crop (i.e., see Condition II. 13.) shall not be exceeded by all of the sources of PAN applied.
Should the maximum PAN loading rate be met or exceeded, then no additional residuals shall
be land applied to the site.
12
12. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition 11. 13., shall be maintained on land
application sites onto which residuals are land applied 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 and as approved by the Division.
13. Residuals and other sources of PAN shall be land applied to all land application sites at
agronomic rates in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local
Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer
Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. Under no
circumstances shall the following PAN loading rates land applied to any site exceed the
following for the specified crops:

The Permittee shall apply for and receive a modification of this permit before land applying
residuals on any land application site that is to be established in a crop other than those listed
above. A maximum PAN loading rate for the desired crop shall be approved with the permit
modification.
If the land application sites are to be overseeded (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.
Residuals shall not be land applied at rates greater than agronomic rates, unless authorized by
the Division.
14. Animals shall not be grazed on any land application site for 30 days after any residuals land
application event. Sites that are to be used for grazing shall have fencing that will be used to
prevent access after each event.
15, Food crops, feed crops, and fiber crops that do not come in contact with the residuals shall not
be harvested for 30 days after any residuals land application event.
16. Food crops with harvested parts that touch the residual/soil mixture and are totally above the
land surface (e.g., tobacco, melons, cucumbers, squash, etc.) shall not be harvested for 14
months after any residuals land application event.
17, Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (i.e., root crops such as potatoes,
carrots, radishes, etc.) shall not be harvested for 20 months after any residuals land application
event when the residuals remain on the land surface for four months or longer prior to
incorporation into the soil.
18. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land shall not be harvested for 38
months after any residuals land application event when the residuals remain on the land
surface for less than four months prior to incorporation into the soil.
19. Turf shall not be harvested for one year after any residuals land application event.
20. 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,
21. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land
applied or stored residuals into any surface waters.
22. Surface -applied residuals shall be plowed or disced within 24 hours after land application on
land application sites with no cover crop established.
23. For land application sites that are prone to flooding or within the 100-year flood elevation,
residuals shall be land applied only during periods of dry weather, The residuals shall be
incorporated into the soil within 24 hours after land application.
24. Residuals shall not be land applied during inclement weather or until 24 hours following a
rainfall event of 0.5-inch or greater in 24 hours. Any emergency residuals land application
measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division.
25. Residuals shall not be land applied to any land application site that is flooded, frozen, or
snow-covered.
26. Appropriate measures shall be taken to control public access to the land application sites
during active site use and for the 12-month period following the last residuals land application
event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the activities being
conducted at each site.
M. 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. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the mast -recently -
certified Attachment A of this permit shall be analyzed to demonstrate that they are non-
hazardous under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). A corrosivity,
ignitability, and reactivity analysis as well as a Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure
(TCLP) analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residuals source -
generating facility listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit. The
analyses shall be performed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit, and the results shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a
minimum of five years. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating
facility are land applied at a frequency less than that which is specified in the most recently -
certified Attachment A of this permit, the analyses shall be required for each residuals land
application event. Only residuals that are generated by the residuals source -generating
facilities that are identified as being exempt from this condition in the most recently -certified

After the residuals have been monitored as specified above
for two years at the frequency
specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit,
the Permittee may submit
a request to the Division for a permit modification to request a reduction of this monitoring
requirement. In no case, however, shall the frequency of monitoring be less than once per
permit cycle.
3. An analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residuals source -generating
facility listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit. The analysis shall be
performed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this
permit, and the results shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five
years. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility are land
applied at a frequency less than that which is specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit, an analysis shall be required for each residuals land application
event. The analysis shall include, but shall not necessarily be limited to, the following

After the residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility have been
monitored for two years at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A
of this permit, the Permittee may submit a request to the Division for a permit modification to
reduce the frequency of this monitoring requirement. In no case, however, shall the frequency
of this monitoring be less than once per year when a residuals land application event of
residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facility occurs during that year.
4. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most recently -
certified Attachment A of this permit shall be monitored for compliance with Condition I. 7.
The monitoring shall be performed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit, and data to verify pathogen and vector attraction reduction of the
residuals shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. The
required data shall be specific to the stabilization process utilized, but also shall be sufficient
to demonstrate clear compliance with the Class A pathogen reduction requirements in 40 CFR
Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen reduction requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR
Part 503.32(b) as well as one of vector attraction reduction requirements in 40 CFR Part

not be required to comply with this monitoring requirement.
5. Laboratory analyses as required by Condition M. 2., Condition III. 3., and Condition M. 4.
shall be performed/gathered on the residuals as they are to be land applied. Furthermore,
analytical determinations made pursuant to the monitoring and reporting requirements of this
permit shall be made by a laboratory certified by the Division for the required parameter(s)
under 15A NCAC 2H .0800 or 15A NCAC 2H .1100.
Proper records shall be maintained by the Permittee tracking all residuals land application
events, These records shall include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following
information:

hectare;
i. Volume of animal waste or other nutrient source applied in gallons per acre, dry ton per
acre, or kilograms per hectare (if applicable);
j. Volume of soil amendments (i.e., lime, gypsum, etc.) applied in gallons per acre, dry ton
per acre, or kilograms per hectare (if applicable); and
k. Annual and cumulative totals of dry tons per acre of residuals as well as animal waste and
other sources of nutrients (i.e., if applicable), annual and cumulative pounds per acre of
each heavy metal (i.e., shall include, but shall not be limited to, arsenic, cadmium, copper,
lead, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, and zinc), annual pounds per acre of PAN,
and annual pounds per acre of phosphorus applied to each field.
7. A representative annual soils analysis (i.e., Standard Soil Fertility Analysis) shall be
conducted on each land application site on which a residuals land application event in the
respective calendar year has occurred or is to occur, and the results shall be maintained on file
by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. The Standard Soil Fertility Analysis shall
include, but is not necessarily limited to, the following parameters:
Acidity Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (by calculation)
Calcium Magnesium Phosphorus
Cation Exchange Capacity Manganese Potassium
Copper Percent Humic Matter Sodium
Base Saturation (by calculation) pH Zinc
Three copies of all required monitoring and reporting requirements as specified in Condition
M. L, Condition M. 2., Condition ffi. 3., Condition III. 4., Condition Ill, 5., Condition III, 6.,
and Condition M. 7. shall be submitted annually on or before March 1 st of the year following
the residuals land application event to the following address:
NCDENR-DWQ
Information Processing Unit
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617

9. Noncompliance Notification:
The Permittee shall report by telephone to the Aquifer Protection Section of the Division's
Fayetteville Regional Office at telephone number 910-433-3300, as soon as possible, but in no
case more than 24 hours or on the next working day following the occurrence or first
knowledge of the occurrence of any of the following:
a. Any occurrence with the residuals land application program that results in the land
application of significant amounts of residuals that are abnormal in quantity or
characteristic.
b. Any failure of the residuals land application program resulting in a release of material to
receiving waters.
c. Any time that self -monitoring information indicates that the residuals land application
program has gone out of compliance with the conditions and limitations of this permit or
the parameters on which the program system was designed.
d. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the residuals land
application program incapable of adequate residuals treatment.
e. Any spillage or discharge from a vehicle or piping system transporting residuals to the
application site.
Persons reporting such occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in letter form
within five days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report shall outline the
actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur.
IV. GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
Land Application Site Requirements:
a. Each land application site identified with a GW-A in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
greater than three feet below the land surface. Residuals land application events may
occur on these sites throughout the year.
b. Each land application site identified with a GW-B in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
between one and three feet below the land surface. Residual land application events on
these sites shall be prohibited from December through March, inclusive. No residuals
shall be land applied to these sites when the vertical separation between the depth of
residuals land application and the water table is less than three feet. The actual water
table depth for seasonally -restricted soils shall be verified by soil borings within 24 hours
prior to any residuals land application event that occurs from April through November,
inclusive. The number of borings advanced shall be sufficient to characterize water table
conditions across the land application site adequately. Any open borings shall be properly
filled with native soil, prior to the residuals land application event, to decrease the chance
of any residuals contaminating the groundwater.
10
2. Applicable Boundary Requirements:
a_ 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. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality
Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation
action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(2).
b. 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)(2).
Additional Requirements:
a. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall be
provided.
V. INSPECTIONS
Prior to each residuals land application event, the Permittee or his designee shall inspect the
residuals storage, transport, and application facilities to prevent malfunctions and
deterioration, operator errors, and discharges that may cause or lead to the release of wastes to
the environment, a threat to human health, or a nuisance. The Permittee shall maintain an
inspection log or summary including at least the date and time of inspection, observations
made, and any maintenance, repairs, or corrective actions taken by the Permittee. This log of
inspections shall be maintained by the Permittee for a period of five years from the date of the
inspection and shall be made available to the Division or other permitting authority, upon
request.
2. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division may, upon
presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property, premises, or place on or related to
the land application sites or facilities at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining
compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records that must be kept under the
terms and conditions of this permit; and may obtain samples of groundwater, surface water, or
leachate.
VI. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. This permit shall become voidable unless the residuals land application events are carried out
in accordance with the conditions of this permit, the supporting materials, and in the manner
approved by the Division.
2. This permit shall be effective only with respect to the nature and volume of residuals described
in the application and other supporting data.
Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit may subject the
Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division in accordance with North Carolina General
Statutes § 143-215.6A through § 143-215.6C.
11
4. The annual administering and compliance fee shall be paid by the Permittee within 30 days
after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly may cause the Division
to initiate action to revoke this permit, as specified by 15 NCAC 2H .0205 (c)(4).
5. The issuance of this permit does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all
statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies
(i.e., local, state, and federal) which have jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, applicable
river buffer rules in 15A NCAC 2B .0200, soil erosion and sedimentation control requirements
in 15A NCAC Chapter 4 and under the Division's General Permit NCG010000, and any
requirements pertaining to wetlands under 15A NCAC 2B .0200 and 15A NCAC .0500.
6. This permit may be modified, revoked, and/or reissued to incorporate any conditions,
limitations and monitoring requirements the Division deems necessary in order to protect the
environment and public health adequately.
The Permittee, at least six months prior to the expiration of this permit, shall request its
extension. Upon receipt of the request, the Division shall review the adequacy of the facilities
and residuals land application program described therein, and if warranted, shall extend the
permit for such period of time and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem
appropriate.
8. This permit shall not be automatically transferable. In the event that there is a desire for the
residuals land application program to change ownership or to change the name of the
Permittee, a formal permit request shall be submitted to the Division documentation from the
parties involved and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. The approval of this
request shall be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved.

Anson County
Dear Mr. Gatewood:
In accordance with your permit modification application package received on June 3, 2003; we
are forwarding herewith a reissued Permit No. WQ0006438, dated October 20, 2000, to Anson County
for the subject residuals land application program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2005; shall void the
first October 20, 2000 issuance of Permit No. WQ0006438; and shall be subject to the conditions and
limitations as specified therein. Matte note of this permit's expiration date and the fact that a permit
renewal application is due to the Division of Water Quality (Division) no later than six months prior to
that date (i.e., see Condition VI.7.), as the Division does not send reminders to apply for permit renewal.
Please note that this permit is being issued only in a new format to facilitate new permit review
procedures that have been put into place by the Division. Note that no approval of the requested
permit modifications is being provided by this issuance of the permit. A separate approval or denial
of these modifications will be forthcoming to you from the Water Quality Section of the Division's
Fayetteville Regional Office. Be advised that operation of disposal facilities without a valid permit is a
violation of North Carolina General Statute § 143-215.1 and may subject the owner/operator of the
facilities to enforcement action in accordance with North Carolina General Statute §143-215.6. Civil
penalties of up to $25,000 per day per violation may be assessed for failure to await the issuance of a
pernut required by North Carolina General Statute § 143-215.1.
As always, remember to take the time to review this permit thoroughly, as some of the
conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or deleted since the last issuance. 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.

9. An acceptable pH shall be maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0,
on all land application sites onto which residuals are land applied to ensure optimum yield for
the crops specified in Condition II. 13. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH
best suited for the specified crop and the soil type.
10. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facilities listed in the
most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high
sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of five or higher), the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP)
or other method as approved by the Division, using the results from the annual soils analysis
as required by this permit, shall be monitored on all of the land application sites. 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 shall review the results and make recommendations regarding 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 implement such recommendations accordingly and shall
maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and
rate of soil amendment application.
El
I1_ Prior to land applying residuals to any land application site that has previously received or is
intended to receive animal waste (e.g., poultry litter, etc.) or other source of nutrients (e.g.,
fertilizer, etc.) in the future, the Permittee shall obtain information pertaining to the volume
and analysis of the applied waste/nutrients from the landowner and/or lessee/operator of the
site. The Permittee shall be responsible for verifying the volume of residuals that may be land
applied to the site such that the plant available nitrogen (PAN) Ioading rate for the specified
crop (i.e., see Condition 11. 13.) shall not be exceeded by all of the sources of PAN applied.
Should the maximum PAN loading rate be met or exceeded, then no additional residuals shall
be land applied to the site.
12. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition II. 13., shall be maintained on land
application sites onto which residuals are land applied 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 and as approved by the Division.
13. Residuals and other sources of PAN shall be land applied to all land application sites at
agronomic rates in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local
Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer
Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. Under no
circumstances shall the following PAN loading rates land applied to any site exceed the
following for the specified crops:

The Permittee shall apply for and receive a modification of this permit before land applying
residuals on any land application site that is to be established in a crop other than those listed
above. A maximum PAN loading rate for the desired crop shall be approved with the permit
modification.
1f 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 Iand
applied to these sites because the PAN will essentially be returned to the soil.
Residuals shall not be land applied at rates greater than agronomic rates, unless authorized by
the Division.
14. Animals shall not be grazed on any land application site for 30 days after any residuals land
application event. Sites that are to be used for grazing shall have fencing that will be used to
prevent access after each event.
15. Food crops, feed crops, and fiber crops that do not come in contact with the residuals shall not
be harvested for 30 days after any residuals land application event.
16. Food crops with harvested parts that touch the residuallsoil mixture and are totally above the
land surface, (e.g., tobacco, melons, cucumbers, squash, etc.) shall not be harvested for 14
months after any residuals land application event.
17. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (i.e., root crops such as potatoes,
carrots, radishes, etc.) shall not be harvested for 20 months after any residuals land application
event when the residuals remain on the land surface for four months or longer prior to
incorporation into the soil.
18. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land shall not be harvested for 38
months after any residuals land appIication event when the residuals remain on the land
surface for less than four months prior to incorporation into the soil.
19. Turf shall not be harvested for one year after any residuals land application event.
20. 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.
21. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land
applied or stored residuals into any surface waters.
22. Surface -applied residuals shall be plowed or disced within 24 hours after land application on
land application sites with no cover crop established.
23. For land application sites that are prone to flooding or within the 100-year flood elevation,
residuals shall be land applied only during periods of dry weather. The residuals shall be
incorporated into the soil within 24 hours after land application.
24_ Residuals shall not be land applied during inclement weather or until 24 hours following a
rainfall event of 0.5-inch or greater in 24 hours. Any emergency residuals land application
measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division.
25. Residuals shall not be land applied to any land application site that is flooded, frozen, or
snow-covered.
26. Appropriate measures shall be taken to control public access to the land application sites
during active site use and for the 12-month period following the last residuals land application
event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the activities being
conducted at each site.

After the residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility have been
monitored for two years at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A
of this permit, the Permittee may submit a request to the Division for a permit modification to
reduce the frequency of this monitoring requirement. In no case, however, shall the frequency
of this monitoring be less than once per year when a residuals land application event of
residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facility occurs during that year.
4. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most recently -
certified Attachment A of this permit shall be monitored for compliance with Condition 1. 7.
The monitoring shall be performed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit, and data to verify pathogen and vector attraction reduction of the
residuals shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. The
required data shall be specific to the stabilization process utilized, but also shall be sufficient
to demonstrate clear compliance with the Class A pathogen reduction requirements in 40 CFR
Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen reduction requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR
Part 503.32(b) as well as one of vector attraction reduction requirements in 40 CFR Part

9. Noncompliance Notification:
The Permittee shall report by telephone to the Water Quality Section of the Division's
Fayetteville Regional Office at telephone number 910-4$6-1541, as soon as possible, but in no
case more than 24 hours or on the next working day following the occurrence or first
knowledge of the occurrence of any of the following:
a. Any occurrence with the residuals land application program that results in the land
application of significant amounts of residuals that are abnormal in quantity or
characteristic.
b. Any failure of the residuals land application program resulting in a release of material to
receiving waters.
c. Any time that self -monitoring information indicates that the residuals land application
program has gone out of compliance with the conditions and limitations of this permit or
the parameters on which the program system was designed.
d. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the residuals land
application program incapable of adequate residuals treatment.
e. Any spillage or discharge from a vehicle or piping system transporting residuals to the
application site.
Persons reporting such occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in letter form
within five days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report shall outline the
actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur.
IV. GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
Land Application Site Requirements:
a. Each land application site identified with a GW-A in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
greater than three feet below the land surface. Residuals land application events may
occur on these sites throughout the year.
b. Each land application site identified with a GW-B in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
between one and three feet below the land surface. Residual land application events on
these sites shall be prohibited from December through March, inclusive. No residuals
shall be land applied to these sites when the vertical separation between the depth of
residuals land application and the water table is less than three feet. The actual water
table depth for seasonally -restricted soils shall be verified by soil borings within 24 hours
prior to any residuals land application event that occurs from April through November,
inclusive. The number of borings advanced shall be sufficient to characterize water table
conditions across the land application site adequately. Any open borings shall be properly
filled with native soil, prior to the residuals land application event, to decrease the chance
of any residuals contaminating the groundwater.
H
2. Applicable Boundary Requirements:
a. 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. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality
Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation
action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(2).
b. 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 I5A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(2).
Additional Requirements:
a. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall be
provided.
V. INSPECTIONS
Prior to each residuals land application event, the Permittee or his designee shall inspect the
residuals storage, transport, and application facilities to prevent malfunctions and
deterioration, operator errors, and discharges that may cause or lead to the release of wastes to
the environment, a threat to human health, or a nuisance. The Permittee shall maintain an
inspection log or summary including at least the date and time of inspection, observations
made, and any maintenance, repairs, or corrective actions taken by the Permittee. This log of
inspections shall be maintained by the Permittee for a period of five years from the date of the
inspection and shall be made available to the Division or other permitting authority, upon
request_
2. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division may, upon
presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property, premises, or place on or related to
the land application sites or facilities at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining
compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records that must be kept under the
terms and conditions of this permit; and mayobtain samples of groundwater, surface water, or
leachate.
VI. GENERAL CONDITIONS

surface application method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to
a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and approval from the
appropriate regional office,
b) 200 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for
subsurface residual injection method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be
reduced to a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and the
appropriate regional office,
c) 100 feet from any public or private water supply source, waters classified as SA or
SB, and any Class I or Class II impounded reservoir used as a source of drinking
water for both methods,
d) 100 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or
coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for surface application,
e) 50 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or
coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for subsurface application,
f) 50 feet from property lines for both surface and subsurface application methods;
g) 50 feet from public right of ways for both application methods,
h) 10 feet from upslope interceptor drains and surface water diversions for both
application methods,
i) 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater
drainage systems and surface drainage ditches for both application methods.
6. A copy of this permit shall be maintained at the land application site when residuals are
being applied during the life of this permit. A spill prevention and control plan shall be
maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles.
7. Specific residual application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each site prior to
and during application.
8. No residuals at any time shall be stored at any application site, unless approval has been
requested and obtained from the Division.

subsurface applications.
10. When wastewater residuals are applied, the Class A pathogen requirements and site
restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen requirements and site
restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(b), and one of vector attraction reduction requirements
in 40 CFR Part 503.33 shall be met. Additionally, an evaluation must be performed
which demonstrates the residuals ability to comply with this requirement. Upon request,
a copy of this evaluation must be submitted including all test results and calculations.
H. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The facilities and application sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times.
2. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in condition II 4, shall be maintained in accordance
with the crop management plan outlined by the local Extension Office, the Department of
Agriculture, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist, and
approved by this Division.

Subject: Permit No. WQ0006438
Administrative Amendment -Correction
County of Anson
Land Application of Wastewater Residuals
Anson County
Dear Mr. Gaddy:
On March 17, 1998 this administrative amendment was issued for the below reasons. However
the permit number was listed as WQ0006838. This permit modification is for the correction of hte
permit number back to WQ0006438. No other chanage to the permit have been made. Therefore, in
accordance with the request from Ronnie Oaks with Liquid Waste, Inc. received on January 5, 1998, we
are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0006438 as administratively amended on March 17, 1998, to
County of Anson for the continued operation of a wastewater residuals land application program.
This permit is being administratively amended because Liquid Waste, Inc. has purchased some
of the Harry Huntley land previously permitted, and requested that a portion of the fields be dropped
from the subject permit. The available land has been reduced from 254.8 acres to 121.9 acres.
The County of Anson is again advised of the elevated levels of copper and zinc which are present
in the residuals. These two heavy metals should be monitored closely to assure that ceiling
concentrations or cumulative loadings are not exceeded.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2002, shall void Permit
No. WQ0006838 issued to County of Anson on March 17, 1998, and shall be subject to the conditions
and limitations as specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting
requirements contained in this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and
maintaining the required operational information will result in future compliance problems.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the
Tight to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of
this permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of North
Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Drawer 27447,
Raleigh, NC 27611-7447. Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding.

County of Anson
Anson County
FOR THE
operation of a wastewater residuals land application program consisting of the application of 250 dry
tons per year of residuals from sources listed in Condition II 5, to approximately 121.9 acres of land in
Anson County with no discharge of wastes to the surface waters, pursuant to request from Ronnie Oaks
with Liquid Waste, Inc. received on January 5, 1998, and in conformity with the project plan,
specifications, and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2002, shall void Permit
No. WQ0006838 issued to the County of Anson on March 17, 1998, and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. This permit shall become voidable if the soils fail to adequately assimilate the wastes and
may be rescinded unless the sites are maintained and operated in a manner which will
protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and ground waters.
2. The land application program shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -
discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of
this program.
3. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for
damages to surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation of this program.
4. In the event that the land application program is not operated satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall cease applying residuals to the sites
and take any immediate corrective actions as may be required by the Division of Water
Quality (Division).
5. Some of the buffers specified below may not have been included in previous permits for
this land application operation. However, any sites or fields that are included in this
permit, but were approved with different applicable buffers shall be reflagged to comply
with the below buffers. The following buffer zones shall be maintained.
a) 400 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for
surface application method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to
a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and approval from the
appropriate regional office,
b) 200 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for
subsurface residual injection method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be
reduced to a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and the
appropriate regional office,
c) 100 feet from any public or private water supply source, waters classified as SA or
SB, and any Class I or Class Il impounded reservoir used as a source of drinking
water for both methods,
d) 100 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or
coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for surface application,
e) 50 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or
coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for subsurface application,
f) 50 feet from property lines for both surface and subsurface application methods;
g) 50 feet from public right of ways for both application methods,
h) 10 feet from upslope interceptor drains and surface water diversions for both
application methods,
i) 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater
drainage systems and surface drainage ditches for both application methods.
6. A copy of this permit shall be maintained at the land application site when residuals are
being applied during the life of this permit. A spill prevention and control plan shall be
maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles.
7. Specific residual application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each site prior to
and during application.
S. No residuals at any time shall be stored at any application site, unless approval has been
requested and obtained from the Division.
9. Maximum slope for residual application shall be 10% for surface application and 18% for
subsurface applications.
10. When wastewater residuals are applied, the Class A pathogen requirements and site
restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen requirements and site
restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(b), and one of vector attraction reduction requirements
in 40 CFR Part 503.33 shall be met. Additionally, an evaluation must be performed
which demonstrates the residuals ability to comply with this requirement. Upon request,
a copy of this evaluation must be submitted including all test results and calculations.
II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The facilities and application sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times.
2. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in condition II 4, shalI be maintained in accordance
with the crop management plan outlined by the Iocal Extension Office, the Department of
Agriculture, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist, and
approved by this Division.
3. An acceptable pH must be maintained in the soil, residual and lime mixture, greater than
6.0, on all land application sites to insure optimum yield for the crop(s) specified below.
The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the specified crop and
the soil type.
4. The application rates shall not exceed the following for the specified crops:

and a second crop in the fall, with BOTH crops to receive wastewater residuals), then the
second crop shall receive an application of nutrients at a rate of no greater than 50
lbs/acre/yr. This practice will 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 wastewater residuals shall be applied to these fields because the nitrogen will
essentially be returned to the soil.
