The use and disposal of residuals are regulated under Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations Part 503. This permit does not exempt the Penmittee from complying with the federal regulations. This permit shall be effective from August 1, 2014 until July 31, 2019, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. SCHEDULES 1. No later than six months prior to the expiration of this permit, the Permittee shall request renewal of this permit on official Division forms. Upon receipt of the request, the Division will review the adequacy of the facilities described therein, and if warranted, will renew the permit for such period of time and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem appropriate. Please note Rule 15A NCAC 02T .0105(d) requires an updated site map to be submitted with the permit renewal application. II. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS The subject residuals management program shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times so there is no discharge to surface waters, nor any contravention of groundwater or surface water standards. In the event the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions due to improper operation and maintenance, the Permittee shall immediately cease land applying residuals to the site, contact the Raleigh regional office supervisor, and take any immediate corrective actions. WQ0018007 Version 3.0 Shell Version 131016 Page 1 of 12 2. This permit shall not relieve the Permittee of their responsibility for damages to groundwater or surface water resulting from the operation of this residuals management program. 3. Only residuals generated by the facilities listed in Attachment A are approved for land application in accordance with this permit. 4. Only the sites listed in Attachment B are approved for residuals land application. 5. Pollutant concentrations in residuals applied to land application sites listed in Attachment B shall not exceed the following Ceiling Concentrations (i.e., dry weight basis) or Cumulative Pollutant Loading Rates (CPLRs): Parameter Ceiling Concentration (milligrams per kilogram) CPLR (pounds per acre) Arsenic 75 36 Cadmium 85 34 Copper 4,300 1,338 Lead 840 267 Mercury 57 15 Molybdenum 75 n/a Nickel 420 374 Selenium 100 89 Zinc 7,500 2,498 The Permittee shall determine compliance with the CPLRs using one of the following methods: a. By calculating the existing cumulative level of pollutants using actual analytical data from all 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. 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. 8. Setbacks for land application sites shall be as follows: WQ0018007 Version 3.0 Shell Version 131016 Page 2 of 12 Setback by application type (feet) Setback Description Vehicular Irrigation Surface Surface Injection / Application Application Incorporation Habitable residence or place of public assembly under separate ownership or not to be maintained as 400 400 200 art of the project site Habitable residence or places of public assembly owned by the Permittee, the owner of the land, or the 0 200 0 lessee/operator of the land to be maintained as part of the project site Property lines 50 150 50 Public right of way 50 50 50 Private or public water supply 100 100 100 Surface waters (streams — intermittent and perennial, 100 100 50 perennial waterbodies, and wetlands Surface water diversions (ephemeral streams, 25 100 25 waterways, ditches Groundwater lowering ditches (where the bottom of 25 100 25 the ditch intersects the SHWT Subsurface groundwater lowering system 0 100 0 Wells with exception to monitoring wells 100 100 100 Bedrock outcrops 25 25 25 Top of slope of embankments or cuts of two feet or 15 15 15 more in vertical height Building foundations or basements 0 15 0 Water lines 0 10 0 Swimming pools 100 100 100 Nitrification fields 0 20 0 9. Land application areas shall be clearly marked on each site prior to and during any residuals application event. 10. 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 (httn:Hnutrients.soil.ncsu.edu/yields/index.l)hp). A copy shall be kept on file and reprinted every five years in accordance with Condition IV.70). 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: 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. WQ0018007 Version 3.0 Shell Version 131016 Page 3 of 12 ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by the Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group - Guidance Document: Chapter 1 (http://www.ncagr.fzov/SWC/tech/documents/9th Guidance Doc 100109.pdf). 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 (ftp://ftp-fe.sc.eg-ov.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. 11. When residuals are land applied to grazed pasture, hay crop realistic nitrogen rate shall be reduced by 25% in accordance with the USDA -MRCS 590 Nutrient Management Standards. 12. If land application sites are to be over -seeded or double -cropped (e.g., bermuda grass 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. 13. 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. 14. 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. 15. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0108, the review boundary shall be established midway between the compliance boundary and the residual land application area. Any exceedance of groundwater standards at the review boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0106. III. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS 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 Raleigh Regional Office, telephone number (919) 791-4200, and the appropriate local government official (i.e., county manager, city manager, or health director) shall be notified at least 48 hours prior to the initial residuals land application to any new land application site.
