ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
On August 29, 2018, John Patrone met with David Hutchins, Rusty Turner, Dwain Maness, and Barry Hamilton to conduct
a comprehensive inspection of the City of Asheboro Leaf Transfer Station on Transfer Station Place in Asheboro,
Randolph County.

1. The facility is a yard waste notification (YWN) owned by the City of Asheboro.
2. The YWN is located adjacent to the City of Asheboro Transfer Station (76-05), at the rear of the property.
3. The YWN site is not open to the public. It is used by City of Asheboro Public Works Division vehicles/personnel.
4. Material is received from Randolph County.
5. The City of Asheboro collects leaves annually from October through February. Although, yard waste is collected
year-round.
6. Ensure processed and unprocessed material on site is less than 6000 yd3 quarterly.
7. At the time of the inspection, there were five windrows on site.
8. Leaf windrows should be turned often-enough to ensure temperatures do not exceed 160 °F. The windrow
material should not remain clumpy.
9. Turning leaf windrows will accelerate the decomposition process and create uniform compost.
10. Temperature records shall be maintained for each windrow during active composting demonstrating 3 days at
> 131°F, aerated to maintain elevated temperatures.
11. The facility maintains leaf windrow temperature records. Records for two windrows were observed, indicating
compliance. The remaining three will have temperatures recorded in the fall.
12. Temperature probe calibration records should be maintained.
13. The facility stores logs on the property available for employees to cut for firewood.
14. The area adjacent to the YWN is used as a beneficial fill site for inert materials. The City is extending the level
area available for operations and storage.
15. The City of Asheboro Fire Department can be contacted to address an emergency at the facility.
16. The facility is secured by a locked gate.
17. Access roads are of all-weather construction.
18. The YWN shall be renewed annually, by June 1st.

The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance
with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an
