STORMWATER AND PROCESS WASTEWATER DISCHARGES associated with activities classified as:
SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) Code: 2875 - Compost facilities, and like activities
This NOI may be an application to discharge process wastewater. NCG240000 contains effluent limitations for

Receiving water classification(s) for the waters: C
If the site will discharge to a separate storm sewer system, name the operator of the separate storm sewer
system (e.g. City of Raleigh municipal storm sewer). N/A
Note: Discharge of process wastewater to receiving waters classified as public water supply WS-II to
WS-V must be approved by the Public Water Supply Section of the Division of Water
Resources. If DWR does not approve, coverage under NCG240000 cannot be granted. No new
discharges of process wastewater are permitted in receiving waters classified as WS-1 or
freshwater ORW. Similarly, the Division of Environmental Health Shellfish Sanitation Program
must approve process wastewater discharges to SA (shellfish) waters.

Notice of Intent
General Permit NCG240000
Gold Hill Road C&D Landfill
Large Type 1 Composting Facility
To Whom it concerns:
The Owner/Operator of Gold Hill Road C&D Landfill is developing a Large Type 1 Composting
Facility within the footprint of a Land Clearing Inert Debris (LCID) landfill. The site is within a
semi -rural portion of Randolph County near the city of Asheboro. NC DEQ Division of Waste
Management has reviewed an application for the composting facility prepared by others. The
composting facility effected a change in the SIC classification for the affected portion of the site,
which triggered the need for a stormwater discharge permit. The nearest stream is Penwood
Branch. The site and vicinity are served by municipal water and sewer.
The following documents present an application for an NCG240000 permit. This application
concerns only the former LCID disposal footprint, above which the composting facility is being
developed with an isolated stormwater management system. These measures have been
shown via storm routing calculations as capable of containing the runoff from a 25-year 24-hour
design storm. Larger storms generating higher runoff volumes might result in a discharge to a
sedimentation basin (designed by others), which serves the larger landfill footprint. Under
normal conditions the isolated basin is expected to dewater via infiltration into the partially
decayed organic debris underlying the basin.
Please contact the facility manager or me if there any questions concerning this application.
Cordially yours,
