Distribution of Class A
Residuals
Guilford County
Dear Mr. Drew:
In accordance with your permit application request received April 10, 2019, and subsequent
additional information received June 27, 2019, we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0040787 dated
September 4, 2019, to the City of Greensboro for the construction and operation of the subject residuals
management program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance through May 31, 2025, and shall be subject
to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. The Permittee shall submit a renewal application
no later than December 2, 2024.
Please pay particular attention to the monitoring requirements listed in Attachment A. Failure to
establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational information shall result
in future compliance problems.
Please note that this permit is being issued so that you may dispose of the totality of the
residuals in one year. However, the totality of the residuals cannot be applied only at the site you
included in your proposal at an agronomic rate. You may apply residuals at other sites as well as the
site in your proposal with this permit, but it must be stressed that application of residuals must be at
an agronomic rate, which will vary depending on soils and crops grown. There is no minimum
quantity to be applied in a year in the permit so you can also apply residuals over multiple years at
the site in your proposal.
If residuals are to be applied at the site in your proposal, please inform the Winston-Salem
Regional Office of this decision, and allow them to inspect the site both prior to and after clearance
of the site.
If a residuals storage facility is to be built or another structure utilized to facilitate application
over multiple years, this will require a permit modification.
