Dear Mr. Hargrove:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
Subject: Permit No. WQ0029804
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Utilities
Commission
Thermal Biosolids Dryer Management Facility
Distribution of Residual Solids (503)
In accordance with your permit application package received on February 7, 2006, we are
forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0029804, dated April 13, 2006, to the Winston-Salem/Forsyth
County Utilities Commission, North Carolina for the subject residuals Thermal Biosolids Dryer
Management Facility and Class A EQ residuals product distribution program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 12, 2011, and shall be
subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the
monitoring requirements in this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and
maintaining the required operational information will result in future compliance problems. Please
note that the frequency with which monitoring must be performed is based entirely on the amount
of product that is distributed for application to the land. The Division urges the Permittee to
carefully estimate its amount of annual product distribution, so that the correct monitoring
frequency is selected for implementation. See Condition 1II. 4. and Condition 111. 5. for more
detail.
The EPA guidance document entitled "Control of Pathogens and Vector Attraction in
Sewage Sludge (EPA/625/R-92-013)" states "all Class A material must be tested to show that the
microbiological requirements are met at the time when it is ready to be used... If a facility stores
material before it is distributed for use or disposal, microbiological testing should take place after
storage... In each case, the timing represents the last practical monitoring point before the
Biosolids are applied to the land or placed on a surface disposal site.... Biosolids that are sold or
given away cannot be monitored just prior to actual use; instead monitoring is required as it is
prepared for sale or given away..., which in most cases is the last time the Biosolids are under the
control of a Biosolids preparer." The Division encourages the Permittee to contact the Aquifer
Protection Section/Land Application Unit or EPA's Region IV to ensure that any monitoring
program employed is in complete compliance with 40 CFR Part 503.

to Construct No. 037834A02, and the associated certification must be received from a professional
engineer certifying that the permitted facility has been installed in accordance with the approved
plans and specifications.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you
have the right 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

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 tune 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

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
