Dear Mr. Stevens:
In accordance with your permit renewal and minor modification application package received on
June 29, 2004 as well as the additional information received on August 4, 2005; August 9, 2005; August
16, 2005; and August 23, 2005; we are forwarding herewith a renewed and modified Permit No.
WQ0018007, dated August 24, 2005, to the Town of Broadway for the subject residuals land application
Program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 31, 2010; shall void Permit No.
WQ0018007, issued on March 8, 2002; 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 Vl.
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. This permit is also being modified to decrease the maximum permitted volume
of residuals that may be land applied from the Broadway WWTP to 80 dry tons per year from 100 dry
tons per year. Based on a review of past annual reports submitted by the Permittee, the entire application
area associated with Site No. 03 has typically not received residuals. For this reason, the Division
suggested this land application site be split into two sub -fields. This proposal was accepted in the
additional information response received on August 4, 2005. As such, this permit has been modified to
show this field operation split, with the two sub -fields identified as Site Nos. 03A and 03B.
Two requests proposed in the submitted permit renewal and minor modification application
package are being denied. The Permittee's first request was to be allowed to use Alternative No. 1 (i.e.,
40 CFR Part 503.33(b)(1)) to meet the vector attraction reduction requirement. Because the Broadway
WWTP does not have a separate unit to digest residuals aerobically or anaerobically, the criteria
associated with this alternative cannot be met. Until digestion is provided or the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency develops a program for approval of vector attraction reduction -equivalent processes
similar to that administered by its Pathogen Equivalency Committee, the Permittee must continue to use a
vector attraction reduction alternative that fits within its existing wastewater treatment plant operation.

The Permittee also requested that the frequency of the hazardous waste characterization testing of
the residuals required by Condition 111. 2. of the permit be reduced from annually to once per permit
cycle. In order to consider that request, the Division requested that certain additional information be
provided by August 22, 2005. Some of the additional information was received on August 4, 2005, but a
table to compare the results of all hazardous waste characterization performed on residuals generated by
the Broadway WWTP with the regulatory limits and provide statistical information was stated to be
forthcoming. As of the due date of the Division's original request, this table had not yet been received,
and it was likely to be several weeks until it would be prepared and submitted. For this reason, the
Division has proceeded with this permit issuance without granting this monitoring frequency reduction;
however, the Division would welcome this request as a future minor permit modification (i.e., no
application fee is required) when this information is available.
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 particular interest to you may be the following:
♦ Condition 1. 3. and Condition 1I. 13.: The Division expressed some concern during the
review of this permit application package about the potential overapplication of residuals to
the land application sites. It was relayed to the Division that the 80 dry tons per year of
residuals are not necessarily land applied to the sites every year, rather this maximum volume
allows the Permittee the flexibility to land apply two years' worth of stored residuals in a
single year. It is the Permittee's responsibility to ensure that this residuals land application
program is operated such that agronomic rates are adhered to and water quality standards are
not contravened.
♦ Footnote a of Attachment A: This footnote condition clarifies that use of a 30-percent
mineralization rate for this residuals is permitted, even though the residuals are not
aerobically -digested. This variance is being granted because of long mean cell residence
times at the wastewater treatment plant and the fact that the residuals meet the pathogen
reduction requirement by using the air drying alternative.
♦ Buffer Map for Site Nos. 03A and 03B: During the site visit performed by the Aquifer
Protection Section of the Division's Raleigh Regional Office, the Permittee expressed a
desire to be able to use the southwestern corner of Site No. 03B for residuals land application.
Following a discussion with Mr. Bob Branch of Branch Residuals & Soils, L.L.C., it was
determined that this area is too wet for residuals land application activities; therefore, the
buffer map still shows this area as one of no land application.
If any parts, requirements, and/or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have
the right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this
permit. This request shall be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North
Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings at 6714 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final
and binding.

residuals adequately 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.
3. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Pennittee of the responsibility for damages to
surface waters or groundwater resulting from the operation of this residuals land application
program.

4. In the event that the residuals land application 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.

maintained at all times:
a. 400 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for
surface application methods; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to a
minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and approval from the Aquifer
Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office in Attachment B of this
permit;
b. 200 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for
subsurface application methods; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to
a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and approval from the Aquifer
Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office in Attachment B of this
permit;
100 feet from any public or private water supply source, waters classified as SA or SB,

g. 50 feet from public right of ways for both surface and subsurface application methods;

h. 10 feet from upslope interceptor drains and surface water diversions for both surface and
subsurface application methods; and
i. 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater drainage
systems, and surface drainage ditches for both surface and subsurface application methods.
Some of the buffers specified above may not have been included in previous permits for this
residuals land application program.. However, any land application sites that are listed in the
most recently -certified Attachment B of this permit, but were approved with different buffers
shall be reflagged to comply with these buffers.
6. Maximum slope for land application of residuals shall be 10 percent for surface application
methods and 18 percent for subsurface application methods.
Specific residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land
application site prior to and during a residuals land application event.

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 H. 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 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.
E

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 Iand 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 Iand 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.
R

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 most -recently -
certified Attachment A of this permit shall be analyzed to demonstrate that they are non-

(TCLP) analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residuals source -
generating facility listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this pen -nit. 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 PerTnittee 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
Attachment A of this permit shall not be required to comply with this monitoring requirement.
The TCLP analysis shall include the following parameters (i.e., note the regulatory level in

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 pen -nit. 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

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. ResiduaIs 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
503.33. In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certification statements
concerning compliance with pathogen reduction requirements, vector attraction reduction
requirements, and management practices shall be completed at the frequency specified in the
most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit by the proper authority or authorities, if
more than one is involved (i.e., either the person who prepares the residuals, the person who
derives the material, or the person who applies the residuals). Only residuals that are
generated by the residuals source -generating facilities that are identified as being exempt from
Condition I. 7. in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit shall not be required
to comply with this monitoring requirement.
Laboratory analyses as required by Condition III. 2., Condition III. 3., and Condition In. 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 .I 100.

6. 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:
a_ Source of residuals;
b. Date of land application;
c. Location of land application (i.e., site, field, or zone number);
d. Method of land application;
e. Weather conditions (i.e., sunny, cloudy, raining, etc.);
f. Soil conditions (i.e., dry, wet, frozen, etc.);
g. Type of crop or crops to be grown on field;
h. Volume of residuals land applied in gallons per acre, dry tons per acre, or kilograms per
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

9. Noncompliance Notification:
The Permittee shall report by telephone to the Aquifer Protection Section of the Division's
Raleigh Regional Office at telephone number [phone], 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 inaterial 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.
Occurrences outside of normal business hours (i.e., from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Mondays
through Fridays, except State Holidays) may also be reported to the Division's Emergency
Response personnel at one of the following telephone numbers [phone], (800) 858-
0368, or [phone].
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)(1).
3. 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 deterniining
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
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.

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 I5 NCAC 2H .0205 (c)(4).
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 fcderal) 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.
7. 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.

Because of the fact that the wastewater treatment plant is Operated at a high mean cell residence time and the residuals are air dried to meet the vector attraction reduction requirement, a variance has been granted to the Permittee
to allow use of a 30-percent mineralization rate for the residuals generated from this residuals source -generating facility, even though they are not aerobically -digested prior to land application.
