Wallace Farm Type 3 Compost Facility
Davie County Site
1.0 - GENERAL
Wallace Farm, Inc. (herein also referred to as Wallace Farm) operates a Large Type 3
Compost Facility off Lee Jackson Rd. in Davie County, North Carolina. The facility will process
various types of feedstocks (see section 2.4). All of the feedstocks used at the facility are non-
hazardous. These operations help ease environmental and energy burdens on the state, and produce
useful end -products, while helping meet the state's recycling goals.
General Statute 130A-309.04 calls for reducing the public's use of, and reliance upon,
landfills. Composting is a key, preferred method for achieving this goal. With its green operations,
Wallace Farm enhances and promotes this critically important goal for all citizens of North Carolina.
The accompanying permit documents have been compiled to meet requirements of the North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NC DENR) Division of Waste
Management - Solid Waste Section as outlined in the North Carolina Solid Waste Compost Rules -
Section .1400 - Solid Waste Compost Facilities.

2.3.1 - Floodplain
FEMA map 58405 is included in Appendix B for reference. Sugar Creek is in a studied area
and therefore the approximate 100 year flood plain elevations are indicated on the FEMA Map. The
100-year floodplain adjacent to the compost areas is approximately elevation 696. The 100 year
flood plain is shown the site plan drawing. The solid waste composting operations are not within the
100 year floodplain.
2.3.2 - Property Line Buffer
Wallace Farm will operate such that the minimum 100 foot buffer from the property line to
the solid waste composting area will be maintained. The permit drawings demonstrate compliance
with the property line buffer.
2.3.3 - Residences Buffer
The facility is to operate such that the minimum 500 foot buffer between areas for
composting solid waste and pre-existing residences will be met. The permit drawings illustrate
compliance with residence buffer.
2.3.4 - Well Buffer
One well is located on the property near the existing building. A minimum 100 foot buffer
will be maintained between the well and compost areas as indicated on the permit drawings. Each
residence identified on the permit drawings is assumed to have a well located at the property
boundary of the facility. The permit drawings demonstrate compliance with the well buffer.
2.3.5 - Perennial Streams/Rivers Buffer
A minimum 50 foot buffer is to be maintained between perennial streams/rivers and solid
waste composting areas. The permit drawings demonstrate compliance with perennial stream/river
buffers.
2.3.6 - Surface Water Ouality Standards
The stormwater from the proposed facility will discharge to Sugar Creek, which is part of the
Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin. There are no water classifications or water quality standards that
prohibit locating the Type 3 compost facility along Sugar Creek. Stormwater discharges from the
facility will be permitted in accordance with NPDES General Permit No. NCG 240000. The permit
application package is included in Part 2 of this permit document. Issuance of NPDES General
Permit No. NCG 240000 NCDENR and compliance with the permit by the Owner constitutes
compliance with the surface water quality standards of Rule 15A NCAC 2B .0200 — Classification
and Water Quality Standards Applicable to Surface Waters in North Carolina.
2.3.7 - Closed -Out Disposal Area
The composting facility is not located over a closed -out disposal area.
M
2.3.8 - Adequate Access
A 25 foot minimum distance will be maintained around the periphery of the composting areas
to allow adequate access by fire fighting equipment. The permit drawings demonstrate compliance
with adequate access.
2.3.9 - Surface Water Requirements
As site shall meet the following surface water requirements:
(A) A site shall not cause a discharge of materials or fill materials into waters or wetlands of the
state that is in violation of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act; No waters or wetlands of the
state will be filled to construct or operate the proposed facility.
(B) A site shall not cause a discharge of pollutants into waters of the state that is in violation of
the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), under
Section 402 of the Clean Water Act. Stormwater discharges for operations of the proposed
facility will be permitted in accordance with NPDES General Permit No. NCG 240000.
(C) A site shall not cause non -point source pollution of waters of the state that violates assigned
water quality standards. Stormwater discharges during construction of the proposed facility
will be permitted in accordance with NCDENR's Erosion and Sediment Control rules.
2.3.10 - Groundwater Requirements
Soil Survey Review
Initially, a desktop review of available literature was performed to characterize the soil and
groundwater conditions anticipated at the site. Review of the Soil Map for Davie County, North
Carolina, as presented on the Web Soil Survey maintained by the United States Department of
Agriculture, National Resource Conservation Service
(http://websoilsurvey.sc.egov.usda.gov/App/WebSoilSurvey.aspx) indicates the soils at the site
consist primarily of Oak Level clay loams (OkB2 & OkC2) and Rasalo fine sandy loam (RaB). Per
the Soil Survey, the typical profiles for the clay loams (OkB2 & OkC2) includes clay loam from 0 to
7" below ground surface, clay 7"-30", clay loam 30-38", and loam 38-80". The typical profile for
the fine sandy loam (RaB) includes fine sandy loam from 0 to 9" below ground surface, clay 9"-23
5
clay loam 23-36", and fine sandy loam 36-80". The reported depth to the water table presented in the
Web Soil Survey is greater than 200 centimeters (greater than about 6.5 feet) at the site.
Site Investigation
A site investigation was performed to confirm the soil survey findings and further
characterize the site with respect to near surface soil and groundwater conditions. On May 30th,
2014, a professional geotechnical engineer visited the site to perform and observe a series of test pits.
A total of 12 test pits were advanced across site at the approximate locations shown on the permit
drawings. The test pits were excavated using a Bobcat 325 mini -excavator with depths ranging from
about 4.5 to 6 feet below the ground surface. During the test pit excavations, the geotechnical
engineer visually characterized the soils, collected bulk samples, and observed and logged the
subsurface conditions.
The soil conditions were observed to be generally consistent across the site and typically
consist of:
1. Sandy Clay (CL) w/ near -surface rootmat:
a. low plasticity, 15-25% fine sand (estimated), brown, moist
b. ground surface to depth of 6" to 12", underlain by:
2. Clay with Sand (CL/CH):
a. low to medium plasticity, 5-15% fine sand (est.), orange/brown, moist
b. extending to about 2.5'-3.0' below ground surface, underlain by:
3. Sandy Silt (ML/MH):
a. low elasticity fines, 15-25% fine sand (est.), orange/brown, moist
b. extending to about to about 3.5'-4.5' below ground surface, underlain by:
4. Sandy Silt to Silty Sand (ML to SM):
a. low to non -elasticity fines, 25-50% fine sand, orange/brown/grey, moist.
Isolated boulders were observed at various depths in the test pits along the western boundary
of the site (TP-8, TP-9, and TP-10). No evidence of bedrock was observed in any of the test pits.
No evidence of groundwater (wet and/or saturated soils; standing or visible water, grayish
colors suggestive of saturated conditions) was observed within 24" of the ground surface. While no
wet/saturated soils or visible water where observed throughout the vertical extent of the test pits,
some limited grayish coloring was observed in the sandy silt/silty sand layer encountered near the
bottom of the test pits at depths greater than 3.5-4.5' below ground surface, which suggest the
potential that groundwater could be present in this zone part of the year.
2
Consistency with Section .1400
Siting/design requirements (Rule .1404.(a)(10)(B)) requires that portions of the site used for
waste receipt and storage, active composting, and curing shall have a soil texture finer than loamy
sand and the depth to the seasonal high water table shall be maintained at least 24 inches for a Type 3
facility.
Loamy sand is not defined in .1400, however the United State Department of Agriculture
(USDA) characterizes loamy sand as soil material that contains between 70 and 9 1 % sand and the
percentage of silt plus 1.5 times the percentage of clay is 15 or more; and the percentage of silt plus
twice the percentage of clay is less than 30. A graphical representation for loamy sand from USDA is
found below:
,goo
'oo 00 `Po o 00 so 70 °o ''o --o
Percent sand
The soils encountered in the test pit explorations at the site have a soil texture finer than
loamy sand. The estimated percentage of sand for the soil in the upper 3-4' of the site were less than
50% (estimated as 25% or less) and classify as clays/silts. The sandier material encountered at the
bottom depths of the test pits also were observed to have estimated sand contents of 50% or less.
Loamy sand is characterized by USDA as having between 70 and 91 %. As discussed above, the site
soils are significantly finer than loamy sand and therefore this portion of Rule .1404(a)(10)(B) is
satisfied.
As earlier discussed, no evidence of groundwater (wet and/or saturated soils; standing or
visible water, grayish colors suggestive of saturated conditions) was observed within 24" of the
7
ground surface. While no wet/saturated soils or visible water where observed, some limited grayish
coloring was observed in the sandy silt/silty sand layer encountered near the bottom of the test pits at
depths greater than 3.5-4.5' below ground surface, which suggest the potential that groundwater
could be present in this zone part of the year. Provided portions of the site used for waste receipt and
storage, active composting, and curing are graded such that finish grades are no greater than 1-1.5'
below existing grades, the depth to the seasonal high water table will be maintained at least 24 inches
and this portion of the Rule .1404(a)(10)(B) is satisfied.
2.3.11 - Public Access
The facility will not allow uncontrolled public access. A fence surrounds the proposed
facility on all sides.
2.3.12 - Sedimentation Pollution Control Law
Stormwater discharges during construction of the proposed facility will be permitted in
accordance with NCDENR's Erosion and Sediment Control rules.
Stormwater discharges for operations of the proposed facility will be permitted in accordance with
NPDES General Permit No. NCG 240000.
2.3.13 - Air Pollution Control Requirements
The facility is to be operated to meet air pollution control requirements to minimize fugitive
odorous emissions and to minimize odors at the property boundary. Minimize means to reduce to the
smallest amount, extent, or degree reasonably possible. Operational procedures for maintaining
aerobic conditions within the compost piles will be applied to minimize odor generation. These
procedures include adjusting the porosity, moisture content and pH of mixes. Additionally, the
carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio of the initial mix will be greater than 20:1 to minimize the release of
nitrogen based compounds such as ammonia.
An additional step that may be utilized is covering windrows with carbonaceous materials, as
described in Section 2.6 and in the O&M Manual. A conveyor mounted on a spreader may be used
to apply a layer of carbonaceous materials to windrows after formation, and following turning.
The composting operations have been strategically placed on site to minimize odors at the
property boundary.
2.4 — FEEDSTOCK AND MATERIAL TYPES
Feedstocks to be composted under this permit include animal manures, wood materials, yard
waste, cotton crop materials, meat, food waste, grease trap residuals, US domestic tobacco crop
material, cardboard, bleaching clay, animal fats, virgin gypsum board, lime, and starch water. Wood
materials to be composted at the facility under this permit include land clearing debris, yard waste,
wood shavings, sawdust, and pallets. Wood materials are from ground and unground land clearing
debris and pallets. Ground and unground yard waste is generated by local municipalities and the
general public. The wood shavings are generated from sawmill and furniture manufacturing
operations. All wood materials will not have been painted, stained, glued, nor treated. .
New waste streams will not be received until approval by the Division of Waste
Management.
The only feedstocks that presently can be expected to have seasonal variations in availability
are leaves, yard waste, and mulch. Leaves are seasonal and arrive in the fall and winter. Ground
mulch typically arrives during the drier months of the year when land clearing jobs are undertaken.
These factors vary depending upon the economy and the extent of construction activities. It is very
important for Wallace Farm to stockpile this material when it is available to help make it through
times when it is not.
Estimated annual quantities of feedstocks are summarized in Table 1. Please note that, as can
be shown in annual reports submitted by Wallace Farm, exact quantities received will vary from year
to year and from feedstock to feedstock, and in some years certain feedstocks might not be available
at all.

2.4.1 Design (or maximum throughput) capacity
The design capacity (or maximum throughput rate) of a windrow based facility is a function
of a number of factors, including composting, curing, and storage times. These factors can vary
depending on operations approaches (composting has minimum time and temperature requirements,
for example, but longer times may be used), market conditions, and sales outlets' timing and needs.
One means of estimating the design capacity is to consider product mixing rates. Based on
experience of operating the Type 3 compost facility in Huntersville, production rates are anticipated
to approximately 110,000 tons per year, using a single shift for product mixing. The maximum
throughput based on product mixing for two shifts a day would be about two times this rate, or on
the order of 200,000 tons per year. The maximum practicable throughput rate of the facility is
approximately 200,000 tons per year.
2.4.2 Soils
Refer to Section 2.3.1
2.5 - SITE PLAN
The facility site plan is included in the permit drawings.
2.6 - OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The following describes facility operations. Dry carbonaceous materials (including wood
materials, yard waste, sawdust, wood shavings, US domestic tobacco and cotton crop materials) are
delivered to the facility and off loaded in the receiving area. A 1564 Hogzilla tub grinder, Vermeer
tub grinder, Multiple Volvo, John Deere, and Cat wheel loaders, and a 320 Cat excavator are used
for regrinding land clearing debris and for grinding unground land clearing debris, yard waste, and
pallets. Materials with significant water content (including meat, manures, food wastes, animal fat,
and starch water) are unloaded directly into the concrete receiving/mixing pit for preparing compost
mixes. The mixing pit can hold approximately 900 cubic yards of dry materials and approximately
120 tons of material with significant water content and is designed to be water tight.
The facility will utilize frac tanks or vertical tanks for storing liquid products that arrive when
the mixing pit is in use. Multiple tanks will be utilized to provide up to 45,000 gallons of liquid
11
storage. These tanks can also be used for off-loading shipments of high-water content feedstocks
that arrive when the mixing pit is in use and/or filled to capacity. Use of the tanks will help
maximize operations efficiency. There will be no storage of nitrogenous feed stocks onsite other than
liquids in the tanks.
The mixing pit is approximately 90 feet by 90 feet with up to 10' high walls. The mixing pit
is constructed of 8" thick concrete floor and 10" thick concrete walls. A concrete unloading and
washout area will is above the pit.
Materials are blended in the mixing pit by thorough mixing using one or two Volvo, John
Deere or Cat front end loaders at a rate of 300-400 yards per hour, targeting a homogenous mixture
with a C:N ratio of 20:1 to 30:1 and a moisture content of 40-60%. After the last mixture is
prepared and removed for further processing, the walls and dump areas are washed down with a high
pressure hose. The wash water is directed into the pit, to which fresh bulking material is added on
the bottom to absorb the moisture.
Analytical laboratory results for incoming feedstocks are used to determine the quantity of
each feedstock to use in each compost mix. The feedstocks will be sampled annually and such
analytical results will be updated and provided to the Division.
Parameters for each feedstock (%C, %N, moisture content, and bulk density) are entered into
standard mass -balance equations for composting —those in use were originally acquired by Wallace
Farm at a one of the national composting schools. In addition, a standard computer spreadsheet is
on -hand for verifying product mix ratios. Quantities of feedstocks used in mixtures are measured
using two approaches: mass measurements of each feedstock load (known using tare readings), and
by using the volume of the front end -loader buckets. When liquid wastes are stored, volumes routed
to the mixing pit are measured from knowledge of the fraction of tank capacity utilized.
Within two hours of blending, the mix is transported to the composting pad using dump
trucks and placed into windrows. A front end loader is used to improve the shape of the windrows as
necessary. Windrows are constructed approximately 14 - 16 feet wide, 5 - 7 feet high, and several
hundred feet long. The windrows are turned periodically using a Backhus windrow turner to maintain
aerobic conditions within the pile and to invert and fluff the windrow. The composting areas slope
with the natural lay of the land to facilitate drainage and allow access during any weather conditions.
12
Material generally remains in the turned windrows for approximately eight to sixteen weeks,
followed by placement in storage piles. The material achieves the process to further reduce
pathogens (PFRP) requirements (as well as Vector Attraction Reduction requirements) in the
windrows by maintaining pile temperatures at or above 131 °F for at least 15 consecutive days.
Windrows are turned at least five times during the period when temperatures are > 131°F. During
the PFRP period, temperatures are measured every other day or at least 3 times per week until
requirements have been met. An oxygen meter is used to measure oxygen content of compost pile
pore space, and usually is applied at the same time that temperatures are checked. Current process
durations for the various steps are shown in Table 2.
Working windrows vary from 5 - 7 feet in height by 14 - 16 feet in width. Cross -sections
vary depending upon initial size at set-up, and due to shrinkage. Windrow lengths may vary. Other
windrow sizes may be used, depending upon equipment settings, and other factors.
Table 2. Process durations at Wallace Farm.
Step
Process duration
Receiving
• 0.5 hours for weighing and removal
• Storage of feedstocks and bulking agents up
to 180 Days
• Storage of high water content feedstocks up
to 72 hours
Preparation
• 1 hour for each mixing pit loading
2 days for each windrow
Composting
8 to 16 weeks
Storage & Distribution
• 36 months of onsite storage
• Occurs all year, with increases in distribution
occurring in the Spring and Fall.
In the event that a batch of compost does not meet state or facility requirements for
distribution, the material can be added to a new compost mix for reprocessing or applied to farm
land. (Land application of compost not meeting state requirements must be pre -approved by DENR.)
If land is not available for land application, then an approved municipal solid waste landfill can be
used as a last resort for disposal.
13
After composting, the material is screened to approximately 1/2-3/8 inch to prepare for
marketing. The compost is marketed as Composted Cow Manure, Organic Compost, and Mushroom
Compost. In addition, the compost is mixed with other materials to create a variety of products.
These products include items such as Blended Top Soil, Planting Soils, and Potting Soils.
These products are marketed in both bulk and bagged form. Many professional landscape
organizations and retail outlets utilize the final products. In the event material cannot be marketed, it
will be applied according to regulations to pasture or farmland to supplement commercial
fertilization practices.
Personnel at Wallace Farm are trained to perform various work tasks on the farm and in
conjunction with the composting operation. There is not a precise routine at the composting facility.
Different personnel will work together to perform specific operations on a specific day. For
example, moving material off of the composting pad to the static pile may be the priority one week,
whereas screening the material in preparation for marketing may be the priority the next week.
Listed below are some general operations typically performed by personnel at the facility:
General Manager - Manage all operations and direct work efforts
Office Manager - Coordinates all billings and administrative activities
Fleet Manager - Coordinates all deliveries and trucking operations
Tractor Trailer and Dump Truck Drivers - Haul feedstocks and finished materials
Front End Loader Operator - Mixes feedstocks/shapes windrows/loads product/mixes and
screens finished products
Compost Turner Operator - Turns windrows/monitors compost piles
Bagging Line Operator - Bags finished products
The operation schedule varies as for other farm operations. Operations procedures may be
performed seven days per week depending on the work to be accomplished.
There are few routine tasks performed at the start of each day. Other than unlocking the
buildings, work is resumed from the previous evening. For example, bagging lines are restarted, and
compost mixing recommences.
Activities performed at the end of each day include: washing down the concrete receiving
area and mixing pit, removing keys from all trucks and equipment, locking fuel tanks and buildings.,
Airborne particulates are generally associated with dry compost. The initial mix solids
content can be varied during mixing to prevent over drying of the piles during composting. In
addition, water from the stormwater ponds may be used to add moisture, if necessary. A tractor
14
driven PTO (power take -off) pump is used to fill a 5,000 gallon Hydroforce water tank mounted on a
Volvo, off -road truck. The water trucks are equipped with spray nozzles for applying water to travel
areas and are equipped with specially designed nozzles for applying water to the top of compost
windrows.
Wallace Farm reports the following operational approach for meeting PFRP. During the first
month following windrow formation, Wallace Farm targets turning windrows every 5-10 days. If
necessary, water from the stormwater ponds is added to windrows during this time, which is prior to
the start of PFRP. PFRP is typically met during the second month of active composting. (As stated
in the regulations, for meeting PFRP, "Aerobic conditions shall be maintained during the compost
process. A temperature of 131 degrees F (55 degrees Celsius) or greater shall be maintained in the
windrow for at least 15 days. During the high temperature period, the windrow shall be turned at
least five times." As noted above, Vector Attraction Reduction is accomplished by meeting PFRP
requirements.) If additional water is needed during this PFRP period, well water is used. After
PFRP has been met, turning frequency is reduced to approximately every 10 days.
Household wastes are not part of the Wallace Farm feedstocks, such that household
hazardous wastes (nor any type of hazardous wastes) are not expected. If household hazardous
wastes were delivered, they would be seen during unloading and/or during product mixing, and they
would be removed and disposed of in an approved facility.

2.7.1 - Materials Receiving/Processing
Wood materials, yard waste, sawdust, wood shavings, US domestic tobacco and cotton crop
materials are delivered by truck to the site and unloaded in the receiving and bulking agent storage
area. Grinding of wood materials will be performed with a 1564 Hogzilla or Vermeer Tub Grinder.
Any contaminants such as metal or trash that are inadvertently mixed with the wood material are
disposed of at a landfill. Manure, meat, food waste, and other feedstocks with high water content are
delivered to the concrete receiving/mixing pit shown on the site plan for immediate processing.
2.7.2 - Mixing
Mixing is accomplished by a front end loader as described in Section 2.6. The mix is then
moved by front end loader and dump trucks to a composting area.
2.7.3 - Composting
The mix is placed into windrows. A front end loader is used to shape the windrows, as
required. Carbonaceous materials may be placed on top of the windrows to increase solids content to
adjust the C:N ratio, or to minimize compost smells. The windrows are periodically turned with the
Bachkus compost turner. Windrows are constructed approximately 14-16 feet wide at the base and
5-7 feet high and several hundred feet long. The temperatures are measured in each windrow every
other day or at least three times per week until PFRP is achieved by maintaining temperatures above
or equal to 131 °F for a minimum of 15 consecutive days. Windrows are turned at least five times
during this period in which temperatures are > 131 'F. (Vector attraction reduction is met by having
temperatures higher than 104 Fahrenheit with an average temperature higher than 113 degrees for 14
days or longer.) Material remains in windrows for approximately eight to sixteen weeks during the
active composting period.
2.7.4 - Storage
After active composting, material is stored in a pile for approximately six to twelve months
prior to screening. Compost will be stored in large piles or windrows. The piles and windrows may
be covered with vented plastic covers to keep the compost dry during wet weather. Storage capacity
for approximately thirty six months of compost production is available outdoors.
21
2.7.5 - Screening
The material is screened to approximately'/2-3/8 inch to produce a more marketable compost
product. The overs (material greater than 3/8 inch in nominal size) are recycled and stored in the
receiving area until being mixed with incoming feedstocks.
2.7.6 - Air Emissions and Control Technologies
Operational procedures such as maintaining aerobic conditions within the composting
process (through control of porosity, moisture content, oxygen levels, and proper turning),
maintaining a neutral pH, and increasing the C:N ratio will be followed. In addition, nitrogen -
containing materials will be handled promptly, helping prevent formation of nitrogenous compounds
such as ammonia. Efforts are made to avoid turning windrows during unfavorable weather conditions
such as inversion conditions and undesirable wind directions. Windrows may also be covered with
carbonaceous materials (taking care not to reduce air flow), if offensive odors are observed.
Airborne particulates are generally associated with dry, dusty compost piles. The initial mix
solids content can be varied during mixing to prevent over drying of the piles during composting. In
addition, the water collected in the stormwater ponds or water from an on -site well may be used to
add moisture back to the piles, if necessary. A tractor driven pto pump is used to fill 5000 gallon
truck mounted Hydroforce water tanks. The water trucks are equipped with spray nozzles for
applying water to travel areas and are equipped with specially designed nozzles for applying water to
the top of compost windrows. Water from the stormwater pond is not added to windrows after the
start of the PFRP period.
2.7.7 - Leachate Treatment
Stormwater from composting areas is routed using natural contours and installed diversion
berms to the stormwater pond. Water from the stormwater pond is used on windrows that require
additional moisture for dust suppression (but not during or after PRFP), and may be used for
compost mixes.
22
2.8 - PRODUCT LABEL
A copy of the Wallace Farm product information sheets and product labels and compost (and
feedstock) analytical datais included in Appendix G. The Grade A composted cow manure is
registered with the NCDA as a fertilizer. The material is required to meet a minimum N-P-K value
of .5-.5-.5. It is routinely tested by the NCDA Agronomic Division. Grade A compost organic and
mushroom compost are registered with NCDA as a soil amendment.
2.9 - ENGINEERING PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
No additional site modifications are planned at present. Manufacturers' performance data for
equipment utilized at the facility is included in Appendix F.
3.0 - REQUIRED INFORMATION FOR OPERATING PERMIT
The following section describes the information required for reviewing an application for a
permit to operate the composting facility.
3.1 - CONTINGENCY PLANS
Contingency plans for unusual and adverse conditions are as follows:
3.1.1 - Equipment Breakdown
Wallace Farm has a full time mechanic on staff. Wallace Farm conducts regular equipment
maintenance. Sufficient storage of the feedstocks is provided to allow for routine maintenance
problems. If the compost turner breaks down, loaders can be used while it is under repair. Wallace
Farm also maintains a good relationship with its vendors and can get equipment repaired quickly.
However, equipment can be rented as necessary to maintain operations.
3.1.2 - Air Pollution/Odors
These approaches are described in Section 2.7.6.
3.1.3 - Non -Conforming Materials
23
Incoming feedstocks will be inspected upon arrival. Non -conforming materials are not
allowed on the site and visual inspection prevents this from being a problem. Any rocks found in
shipments are removed. Plastics are not a factor; however these would be separated out, by hand, if
present and placed in the on -sited dumpster.
3.1.4 - Spills
Spills of non -composted material will be cleaned up by a front end loader and added to active
compost piles.
3.1.5 - Fires
The local fire department will be called if needed in the event of any fire at the facility. If
piles of material catch on fire, a bulldozer and loaders will be used to separate the unburned material
from the burning material and prevent the fire from spreading.
3.1.6 - Particulates
Particulates are generally associated with overly dry compost piles. Water from on -site
stormwater ponds or from an on -site well can be used to increase moisture content and reduce
particulates. As noted above, addition of water from on -site ponds will not be performed after the
start of PRFP.
3.1.7 - Noise
Equipment normally associated with farm operations and grading operations is used on the
site, and some equipment noise is expected
3.1.8 — Vectors
Vector attraction reduction takes place during composting. To meet vector attraction
reduction, materials are to be treated in an aerobic process for 14 days or longer, during which time
the temperature of compost shall be higher than 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees F) and the average
temperature shall be higher than 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees F). Periodic turning occurs
throughout the composting process, as discussed above and in the O&M Manual. This approach is
24
considered very effective at controlling vectors. Nevertheless, Wallace Farm staff makes visual
observations for vectors.
Process modifications will be made, if required, to ensure these vector attraction reduction
requirements are met. This may include increasing the amount of wood material and cotton crop
material in the initial mix. Mixing of incoming wet materials and bulking agents occurs is outlined
in Section 2.6. Periodic turning occurs throughout the composting process, as discussed above and
in the O&M Manual.
3.1.9 - Unusual Traffic Conditions
Delivery schedules may be modified, if required, to prevent traffic impacts.
3.1.10 — Adverse Weather Conditions
Operations will be curtailed as necessary during wind, heavy rain, snow, freezing or other
adverse weather conditions. If conditions are very severe, feedstock delivery will be stopped, and
operations will cease. The compost turner, which runs on tracks, permits operations under all but the
most severe conditions. Delivery and other operations will also be reduced to match staff absences
due to inclement weather.
3.2 - OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
A separate operations and maintenance (O&M) manual for the facility has been prepared and
is included with this permit application.
3.3 - QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN
Detailed records, including quantity and type of incoming materials, outgoing products, pile
temperatures, moisture and oxygen levels, turning frequency, and product testing will be maintained
at the facility. Composite compost samples will be taken quarterly and compared to the standards
shown in Table 4. Wallace Farm uses certified laboratories and their testing procedures are noted on
each lab analysis. Wallace Farm will test or obtain test data on incoming feedstocks annually to
ensure metals are below Solid Waste standards as shown in Section .1407.
Non-compostable materials are not allowed on the site. Wallace Farm receives feedstocks of
very consistent quality that does not contain any sort of non-compostable materials. Should non-
25
compostable materials be delivered, they will be sent back to those that sent them, if allowable by
law. If hazardous materials are received, Wallace Farm will report to the Division of Waste
Management immediately to seek solutions with them and determine proper removal and disposal
procedures to follow. If non-compostable materials are screened from initial delivery, they will be
separated and processed according to law. If they are non -hazardous, they will be routed to a
landfill. If hazardous, Wallace Farm will follow directions of experts at the Division of Waste
Management.

Whether you grind stumps and logs by the acre,
wood waste by the ton or green waste by the

providing you the most profit at the end of each
month or year. It's no slacker lying down on the job
aosft you money, Its performance you can bank on!
One operator In a loader/excavator feeds HogZllla,
controlling it by remote control. The 60° radial stacking
i elevator allows a couple hours of grinding before
the operator needs to attend to a ground pile. This
reduces the need for a second loader or operator,
however, you could use a second loader to keep
your HogZilla properly fed.

TCII-1564P models feature patent adjustable hammermill swing capabilities. The versatile 36 inch swing does everything
great, and heavy mulch almost t�syond belief. A 38 inch swing Is a little more aggressive and allows a larger bolt -on
tip. The larger 45 inch swing works better for bushy material which require a bigger bite to utilize all the horsepower.
Check out HogZills's features, quality and workmanship. You'll see why TC HogZAla Grinders are the most reliable
high production grinders in the world.
When the load on the harmermill increases, the hydraulic fluid
Is automatically re-routed against the turbine blades, adding
approx. 30% additional reaction torque to engine torque. The engine
1s protected by the torque converter fluid absorbing shock loads
and torsional vibrations from the hammermill,
assuring longer engine life.

1.0 - INTRODUCTION
This Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Manual was developed for Wallace Farm, Inc. The
objective of the manual is to provide guidance for operators and outline required activities so that the
facility operates in accordance with state regulations, and composting is undertaken with proper
regard for the health and safety of the facility's operators and neighbors.
1.1 - COMPOSTING PROCESS DESCRIPTION
Composting is the controlled aerobic (oxygen rich), thermophilic (temperature range 105 °F
to 165 °F), biological conversion of organic materials into a stable end product (compost). This
conversion is accomplished by microorganisms (bacteria, actinomycetes, and fungi) normally present
in organic materials within the composting mass. By optimizing the environment for the
microorganisms, the process of decomposition is accelerated.
There are three major objectives in composting. The first is to destroy disease -causing
organisms (pathogens) that may be present, by following state requirements for PFRP (Process to
Further Reduce Pathogens) which meets Vector Attraction Reduction requirements. The second
objective is to stabilize the product so that it does not putresce. The final objective is to produce a
stable, manageable product for beneficial use in landscaping and other applications.
The method of composting used at Wallace Farm is the turned windrow method. This
method achieves the objectives outlined above, while processing feedstocks efficiently.
1.2 - FACILITY OVERVIEW
The Composting Facility is in Davie County. Wallace Farm is a family owned and operated
facility. There is not a precise routine; each employee is trained to perform various tasks.
Depending on specific operations on any given day, several people may work together to accomplish
the tasks. Operating schedules varies as for other similar operations and the priorities of the day.
Staff and operations each typically performs are listed below.
• General Manager - Manage all operations and direct work efforts
• Office Manager - Coordinates all billings and administrative activities
• Fleet Manager - Coordinates all deliveries and trucking operations
• Tractor Trailer and Dump Truck Drivers - Haul feedstocks and finished materials
• Front End Loader Operator - Mixes feedstocks/shapes windrows/loads product/mix
and screen finished product
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 1
Davie County Site
Compost Turner Operator - Turns windrows/monitors compost piles
Bagging Line Operator - Bags finished products
Grinder Operator — Grinds yard waste, pallets, and other mulch products.
The Facility will operate Monday through Saturday between the hours of 7 am and 7 pm.

2.0 STANDARD FACILITY OPERATIONS
The following sections cover standard operating procedures for the facility.
2.1 EROSION CONTROL
Stormwater discharges during construction of the proposed facility will be permitted in
accordance with NCDENR's Erosion and Sediment Control rules. Stormwater and erosion control
measures are shown on the permit drawings.
Stormwater discharges for operations of the proposed facility will be permitted in accordance
with NPDES General Permit No. NCG 240000.
2.2 LEACHATE MANAGEMENT
The compost windrows will be constructed with the existing slope to facilitate drainage
between windrows. Stormwater discharges for operations of the proposed facility will be
permitted in accordance with NPDES General Permit No. NCG 240000.
Stormwater discharges during construction of the proposed facility will be permitted in
accordance with NCDENR's Erosion and Sediment Control rules. Passive treatment of storm
water from compost areas occurs as the water is routed through rip rap, silt fencing, over grassy
areas, and to sedimentation catch basins. Water from composting areas is routed using natural
contours and diversion berms to the stormwater ponds shown in the site plan. Water from the
stormwater ponds may also be used on windrows for dust suppression (but not during or after
PFRP), and in compost mixes.
2.3 SITE ACCESS
Uncontrolled public access is not allowed. An existing fence along the property boundary
provides control to access onto the site. An operator is on duty at the site when the facility is open.
The road to the site is maintained to allow all-weather access.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 3
Davie County Site
2.4 SIGNAGE
A sign stating that "no hazardous waste, asbestos containing material, or medical waste is
allowed on site" is posted at the site entrance, along with signage providing information on
materials that are acceptable, posted at the site entrance. Copies of site signage are included in
Appendix B.
2AA SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Safety requirements include the following:
• Open burning of solid waste is prohibited.
• As discussed in Section 4.4 and 4.4.1, equipment is provided to control accidental
fires; arrangements have been made with the local fire protection agency to
immediately provide fire -fighting services when needed (see Section 5.5).
• Personnel training is provided to insure that all employees are trained in site
specific safety, remedial, and corrective action procedures. Training is discussed
in Sections 4.2 and 4.4.
• In addition, all new employees complete an orientation program covering, at a
minimum, the following: general facility orientation; job orientation, emphasizing
duties of the employee, including composting procedures; and safety, including
fire.

Only permitted materials can be accepted. Hazardous materials are not allowed on the site.
Incoming materials are inspected, and any unacceptable materials are to be loaded on the truck that
brought them and transported to a permitted landfill. Feedstocks to be composted under this permit
include animal manures, wood materials, yard waste, cotton crop materials, meat, food waste, grease
trap residuals, US domestic tobacco crop material, cardboard, bleaching clay, animal fat, virgin
gypsum board, lime, and starch water. Wood materials to be composted at the facility under this
permit include land clearing debris, yard waste, wood shavings, sawdust, and pallets. Materials are
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 4
Davie County Site
received and recorded on a weight (per ton) or volume (per gallon) basis. For materials recorded on
a volumetric basis, a gallon of material is weighed. Then the resulting conversion factor (pounds per
gallon) is multiplied by the total number of gallons received to convert to total pounds. Total pounds
are converted to tons by dividing by 2000. USDA certified scales on site are used to weigh incoming
feedstocks. The dry carbonaceous materials such as the wood materials, US domestic tobacco crop
material and cotton crop materials, are unloaded in the receiving and storage area. A tub grinder is
used to adjust the size of wood material products for composting, as described below.
Materials with significant water content (including meat, manures, food waste, bleaching
clay, starch water, and animal fat, can be unloaded directly into the concrete receiving/mixing pit for
preparing compost mixes. In addition, temporary storage for high-water content materials is being
developed for the operations. If the mixing pit is filled to capacity or if it is in use when a load of
high-water content material arrives, these materials can be off-loaded to the frac tank(s). Use of the
tanks will help achieve maximum efficiency in the mixing pit. At a minimum, the tanks are to be
emptied every 36 hours.
The scales, receiving areas, storage areas, and concrete receiving/mixing pit are shown on the
site plan.
The receiving/mixing pit is cleaned out daily. After the last mixture is prepared and removed
for further processing, the walls and dump areas are washed down with a high pressure hose. The
wash water is directed into the pit, to which fresh bulking material is added on the bottom to absorb
the moisture.
Prior to accepting a new waste material not included in this O&M manual, Wallace Farm,
Inc. will thoroughly assess the material and the facility producing it to determine its composition and
suitability for composting. NCDENR will be contacted for assistance with these evaluations.
Samples will be obtained and tested, and lab results will be forwarded to NCDENR as part of the
request for approval for adding the material to the list of allowable feedstocks. New waste materials
will not be received without approval by the Division of Waste Management.
Please note that, as discussed in the Application component of the Application/O&M Manual
submittal, quantities received will vary from year to year and from feedstock to feedstock, and in
some years certain feedstocks are not available at all.
Feedstocks will be stored on the site in the area identified as "RECEIVING, MIXING,
Wallace Farm O&M Manual
Davie County Site
GRINDING." Wood materials will be stored in piles no larger than 30 feet high by 100 feet wide.
2.6 MIXING
Dry carbonaceous materials (including wood materials; land clearing debris; yard waste;
wood shavings; sawdust, virgin gypsum board, tobacco and cotton crop material), are delivered to
the facility and off-loaded in the receiving/storage area. Wood materials, including land clearing
debris, yard waste, and pallets, are ground as necessary. Materials with significant water content
(including meat, manures, food waste, starch water, and animal fats) are unloaded directly into the
concrete receiving/mixing pit for preparing compost mixes. These materials are measured and
blended with front end loaders in the mixing pit upon arrival. Materials are mixed to obtain a
homogenous mix with a C:N ratio of 20:1 to 30:1.
A feedstock database that includes results of laboratory analyses is used to calculate the
appropriate mix ratios to obtain a homogenous mix with a C:N ratio of 20-30:1 and target moisture
contents of 40 to 60%. The calculations are performed by hand with a calculator using the standard
compost mix mass balance equations, obtained by Wallace Farm at a national compost school.
Computer spreadsheets are also available for verifying the hand calculations (see, for example,
http://compost.css.comell.edu/download.html).
Within two hours of blending, the mix is transported to the composting pad via dump
trucks and placed into windrows. A front end loader is used to improve the shape of the windrows as
necessary. The new windrows are turned immediately if favorable climatic conditions exist. If
weather conditions are unfavorable, various procedures can be followed, as described in Sections 2.7
and 5.2.
2.7 COMPOSTING
Windrow composting at the facility is accomplished by placing the mix in windrows
approximately 5 - 7 feet in height by 14 - 16 feet wide, and up to several hundred feet long.
Windrows will be separated by 10 feet to allow vehicular/fire access. The windrows are periodically
turned to break up clumps to expose more surface area to active microorganisms and to expose all
materials to temperatures ensuring pathogen destruction and vector attraction reduction.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 6
Davie County Site
The facility uses a self-propelled, track driven Backus compost turner and a, state-of-the-art,
grinder (this equipment is described in Appendix F). The compost turner performs well during all
weather conditions, and will improve mixing and aeration of compost windrows. The grinder will
help optimize admixture and compost particle sizes. These machines improve composting
efficiency.
To ensure pathogen destruction and vector attraction reduction, the pile temperatures are
maintained at or above 131 °F for at least 15 consecutive days. Windrows are turned at least five
times during this PFRP (Processes to Further Reduce Pathogens) period during which temperatures
are > 131 °F and temperatures are measured every other day or at least three times per week during
this period. Temperatures are taken in each windrow at 50-foot intervals down the length of the
windrow using a three-foot long dial type or digital thermometer. To measure temperatures, the
probe is inserted approximately one to two feet into the pile from the pile surface. Temperatures are
recorded as illustrated in the recording sheet shown in Appendix C. Temperatures are measured
until the 131 °F for 15 consecutive days has been met. An oxygen meter will be used to measure
oxygen content of compost pile pore space, usually at the same time that temperatures are checked.
Windrows are turned based on temperature measurements and atmospheric conditions. Material
generally remains in the turned windrows for approximately eight to sixteen weeks, the exact time
being a function of windrow performance and temperature readings. Following this windrow
processing period, the compost is placed in a static pile for a minimum of six months for curing.
If temperatures exceed 160 °F, the windrow requires turning to cool the composting material.
If temperatures during the active composting period are less than 120 °F, the windrow requires
turning as well. Low temperatures may indicate insufficient oxygen, and pile turning will provide the
needed oxygen to the microorganisms. Temperatures determining when the compost pile requires
turning are guides and may be adjusted based on long-term pile temperature trends and composting
times. If material begins to dry significantly, thereby inhibiting microbial activity, and dusty
conditions are prevalent, water can be added to the top of the windrows. This water can come from
the potable supply, or, if added prior to the start of PFRP, can be from an on -site stormwater ponds.
After adding water, the pile is turned to distribute the moisture. Vector attraction reduction is met by
maintaining pile temperatures above 104 °F for 14 days or longer, during which time the average
temperature is greater than 113 'F.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 7
Davie County Site
Within two hours of blending, the mix is transported to the composting pad using dump
trucks and placed into windrows. A front end loader is used to improve the shape of the windrows as
necessary. The windrows are turned periodically using the Bachkus windrow turner to maintain
aerobic conditions within the pile and to invert and fluff the windrow.
2.8 COMPOST STORAGE
The primary purpose of the storage pile is to provide volume equalization. Multiple compost
rows, once the compost material is stable, are moved to the storage pile and then the compost
material is moved out to the bagging operations and to other finished product storage areas.
Wallace Farm is a member of the US Composting Council (USCC). Compost rows are
sampled regularly and tested by the USCC for stability. Wallace Farm consistently receives a rating
of "very stable" from the USCC. The compost material moved from the compost rows to the
curing/storage pile is considered to be stable and is ready for finished product uses at that time.
2.8.1 Compost Storage Pile Construction
Compost storage is an important step in the operation by Wallace Farm and must be performed
in a manner to prevent loss of finished product. There are two primary concerns associated with the
storage pile:
1. Loss of finished product due to absorption of water, which results in excessive
moisture content and an unusable product.
2. Loss of finished product due to fire.
To minimize the potential for loss of product due to excessive moisture and loss of product due
to fire, the following procedures will be implemented during construction of the storage pile:
1. Finished compost will be hauled from the compost piles to the storage area.
2. Compost will be spread in an approximate 1-foot lift and compacted with a dozer. No
loose material will be allowed to remain in place.
3. Additional lifts will be spread and compacted resulting a "constructed" storage pile
with a relative high density of material with minimized voids.
4. Storage pile side slopes will be constructed in a manner that allows equipment to
perform compaction on side slopes.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual $
Davie County Site
5. Typical storage piles will be 100 to 200 feet wide.
6. Maximum storage pile height will be 60 feet.
7. All procedures used in constructing the storage pile should focus on minimizing the
intrusion of air into the pile and minimizing infiltration of water into the pile.
Vehicular access will be maintained around the entire perimeter of the storage pile.
2.8.2 Compost Storage Pile Monitoring
Daily visual monitoring for vents and cracks will be performed. Any vents or cracks identified
will be immediately remedied using the construction procedures described above.
Operators are trained to identify any hot areas in curing/storage pile. If temperatures in the
curing/storage pile rise above the typical 110' F, the operators can feel the heat being generated and
the operators take the corrective actions described below.
Visual inspections for smoke are continuously performed by the operators during daily
operation and if smoke is identified the operators take the corrective actions described below
2.8.3 Compost Storage Pile Corrective Action
If hot areas are encountered or if smoke is identified, the material generating the heat or smoke
is immediately removed from the storage pile, mixed with compost material having a relatively
higher moisture content, and moved to product packaging.
A 5,000 gallon water tanker is used on site at all times. The water tanker is a 6-wheel drive off
road truck and is equipped with a water cannon capable of spraying water about 50 to 75 feet. The
water tanker truck can drive on the storage pile to access excessively hot or smoking areas.
If excessively hot or smoking areas are encountered, the Fire Department will be notified. An
all-weather (aggregate base course) access road provides access from the public road through the site
and directly to the storage pile. Vehicular access will be maintained around the entire perimeter of
the storage pile.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 9
Davie County Site
2.9 SCREENING
Screening is conducted after Storage. The screen size is 3/8-1 /2" or as required by the market.
The compost (< 1/2") is stored on site prior to distribution. The overs (> 1/2") are returned to the
receiving/storage area and added to other feedstocks in amounts determined by experience and using
Wallace Farm's feedstock information database.
2.10 PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION
The finished product is distributed in bags and in bulk. Records are maintained of material
purchasers. The compost products are registered with the NCDA as a fertilizer and/or soil
amendment. Compost marketed as a fertilizer must meet a minimum N-P-K value of . S-. S-. S.
(Product information is included in Appendix D.)
If product fails to meet state regulatory or facility requirements or is otherwise unmarketable,
it can be applied per regulations and with NCDENR pre -approval to land or taken to an approved
municipal solid waste landfill. Otherwise, poor quality compost, as well as compost not meeting all
regulatory requirements, will be returned to the receiving/processing area and fully reprocessed
following the treatment and monitoring steps described above.
2.11 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Regular equipment maintenance is required to ensure a marketable product is produced.
Refer to specific equipment O&M manuals for equipment maintenance schedules. Small equipment,
such as temperature probes, will be stored inside the bagging line building or in the office.

3.0 SAMPLING, TESTING, AND RECORD KEEPING
Sampling and testing at the composting facility is necessary to:
• Monitor process efficiency
• Provide data to regulatory agencies
• Provide data for trouble -shooting
• Verify quality of materials for composting
It is extremely important that all sampling and testing be done at representative points in the
process and in a consistent manner. The data resulting from any sampling and testing program is
only as good as the sample taken. Sampling should be done consistently, on a regular basis, and
using specific techniques. This section outlines the sampling schedule and sampling procedures
required for a successful sampling and testing program. The operator should make every effort to
follow a consistent routine, according to these guidelines.
Parameter testing includes pathogen indicators, regulated metals, nutrients, and foreign
matter. Sampling and handling requirements are discussed in following sections.
3.1 SAMPLING AND TESTING SCHEDULE
Final product sampling is conducted every six months or 20,000 tons, whichever comes first.
At Wallace Farm's option, compost samples are taken monthly to comply with the STA (Seal of
Testing Assurance) Certification of the US Composting Council. The following sections outline
sampling types and procedures.
3.1.4 Grab Sample Definition
Grab samples are collected at one particular time, in one particular location of a certain
process. Analysis of a grab sample provides results from a random part of the process stream. To
achieve a more representative analysis of a given process stream, many grab samples can be
collected at various times and analyzed individually or these grab samples can be combined to
produce a composite sample.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 16
Davie County Site
3.1.2 Grab Sampling Procedure
Grab samples are collected using a plastic shovel and a clean, dry sampling jar (one -pint glass
or plastic bag). The sample is collected at a point in the material approximately two feet into the
storage pile from the outside of the surface and representative of the compost pile which is being
sampled. Grab sample volumes should be consistent. Grab samples should be taken monthly and
stored in refrigeration until needed to produce a six month (semi-annual) composite sample for
analysis.
3.1.3 Composite Sample Definition
Composite samples are a mixture of grab samples collected individually at various times at
the same location in a certain process, or a mixture of samples that are collected individually at
various locations in a certain process. The grab samples are immediately transferred to a composite
sample container for storage. Composite samples generally are more representative than grab
samples.
3.1.4 Composite Sampling Procedure
Composite samples are stored in a clean, dry sampling jar (one gallon or larger) with an
airtight, screw -on lid. The sampling container is appropriately marked and stored in a cool, dry place,
out of direct sunlight, preferably a refrigerator. At the end of the sampling period, after the last grab
sample is added to the composite jar, the composite sample is well mixed and a representative
portion placed in a smaller sampling jar (one pint) for analysis. The sampling jar is airtight and
stored in a refrigerator until it is delivered to the laboratory for analysis. Analysis should be
performed as quickly as possible, preferably within 24 hours after collection. The sample jar is
adequately labeled with sample name, date of collection, and the operator's name. Composite
samples can also be taken at random from the screened material (immediately after screening or in
the product storage pile) approximately two feet from the pile surface. Several grab samples can be
taken from the pile and combined and thoroughly mixed to create the composite sample.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 17
Davie County Site
3.1.5 Pathogen Samples
Pathogen samples will be grab samples. The pile will be broken apart using a front-end
loader. A shovel will be cleaned with hot soapy water and then sterilized by pouring alcohol on the
shovel and lighting it on fire. The sterile shovel will then be utilized to dig approximately two feet
into the open face of the pile that was broken apart. A sterile scoop is then used to obtain a sample
and place it in a sterile jar. The person sampling will also be wearing sterile gloves during the
sampling event. Pathogen samples will be taken once per every 20,000 tons of compost produced or
at least semi-annually. Once pathogen samples have been taken, they are stored on ice and sent to
the lab immediately.
3.1.6 Metals and Foreign Matter
A composite sample of the compost is analyzed after every 20,000 tons of compost
produced or every six months, whichever comes first, for regulated metals and foreign matter listed
in Table 3.1
Sampling equipment (including coring devices, shovels, trowels, and containers) must be
made of materials that will not contaminate or react with compost constituents. Suitable sampling
equipment materials include glass, stainless steel and plastic (teflon, polyethylene, polypropylene).
Any steel equipment used must not be galvanized or zinc coated because it can contaminate samples.
All sampling equipment must be kept clean to avoid contamination.
Sample containers for metals (and all other analytes) are to be obtained from the certified
laboratory doing the analyses. For metals these containers shall be plastic or glass, the minimum
sample volume sent to the laboratory is 300 mL. Samples for metals analyses are to be stored at 4
°C, and can be held up to six months prior to analysis.
Foreign matter content is determined by passing a dried, weighed sample of the compost
product through a one -quarter inch screen. EPA Method 160.3 is used to dry the sample. The
material remaining on the screen is visually inspected, and the foreign matter that can be clearly
identified is separated and weighed. The weight of the separated foreign matter divided by the weight
of the total sample is determined and multiplied by 100. The result is the percent dry weight of
foreign matter content.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 18
Davie County Site
3.2 OPERATIONAL RECORD KEEPING PROCEDURES
Keeping accurate records is an important part of the operation of any composting facility.
Proper records are necessary to monitor the performance of the facility and to make operational
decisions. Of great importance is the establishment of a reliable continuing record for proof of
performance, thus justifying operational decisions, expenditures, and recommendations. Daily
operational records also provide information useful in process adjustments required due to climatic
or seasonal changes or other recurring problems of a specific nature. Accurate records also provide
the basis for planning future expansion, planning future modifications, establishing and adjusting
operating budgets, and providing evidence of performance in compliance with regulations.
The NC DENR Division of Waste Management requires record keeping sufficient for
determining facility efficiency and the effectiveness of treatment in meeting standards. Personnel
from NC DENR Division of Waste Management will make periodic visits to the facility. During
these inspections, a review of operational and other records may be requested. Records must be
retained for five years.
The following sections outline data to be maintained at the facility.
3.2.4 Material Receiving and Mixing Records
The type and quantity of materials received are recorded daily. Daily records are also kept
documenting feedstock mix ratios and row placement on compost pads. A sample "Pit Mix
Recording Sheet" is included in Appendix C.
3.2.2 Compost Windrow Data
Compost windrow data are maintained by the operator for each windrow built at the facility.
Each windrow is defined as the mix placed on the composting area that is contained in one windrow.
Data will include information as to the day the pile was built, along with monitoring data.. A sample
Windrow Data Sheet is attached in Appendix C. The P1, P2... P10 indicates the same relative
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 19
Davie County Site
location in a windrow. Each point is approximately 50 feet from the next. Temperatures are
measured at least one time per week until the time and temperature requirements are met. The day a
pile is turned or sampled is also noted. The date pile construction began and date completed is when
material is first placed in the windrow and when the last material is placed in the windrow,
respectively. Windrow numbers start with 1 and increase throughout the composting pad as new
windrows are constructed. Additional data is to be collected to record performance over periods
greater than 30 days, as necessary. The operator also maintains a log to document the exact day and
time the turner is in operation.
3.2.3 Row (Windrow) Data
Compost row data are summarized in a database for record -keeping and to evaluate the
overall materials processing operation. Data should be recorded in the database as it becomes
available, thus keeping records current. A sample Row Data Record Sheet is included in Appendix
C.
Note that any material not meeting the time and temperature requirements, which fails
pathogen or other testing, or is otherwise unmarketable, is identified in the database and
appropriately segregated. Approaches for handling these materials are recomposting, land
application with prior NCDENR approval, and transporting them to a Municipal Solid Waste
landfill.
3.2.4 Laboratory Data
Laboratory data include bacteriological, heavy metal, and nutrient concentrations. Compost
samples are taken once for every 20,000 tons of compost produced or at least every six months as
outlined in Section 3.1. These samples are used to verify that the product meets the requirements
listed in Table 3-1. Certified laboratories are used and testing procedures are noted on each
analytical report.

4.0 GENERAL
Some feedstocks may contain pathogens, which composting, if carried out properly, will
destroy. The following are some general recommendations for the health and safety of workers at
Wallace Farm.
4.1 PERSONAL HYGIENE
The following personal hygiene recommendations should be stressed as common
practices to all operators.
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking.
• If heavily contacted with feedstocks such as meat or manure, immediately take a
hot shower and put on clean clothing.
• Wash, disinfect, and bandage ANY cut, no matter how small it is. Any break in the
skin can become a source of infection. Change bandages frequently and wear
protective clothing or equipment over the wound.
• Keep fingernails closely trimmed and clean (dirty nails can harbor pathogens).
Individuals who are highly debilitated or have severe allergies or asthma should not be
employed to work at compost facilities.
4.2 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must be evaluated as to the level of protection
necessary for particular operating conditions and then made available to facility employees. The list
below includes the PPE typically used and/or required in a compost facility workplace.
• Leather shoes with hard soles
• Noise reduction protection should be used in areas where extended exposure to
continuous high decibel levels are expected
• Disposable rubber latex or chemical resistant gloves for appropriate protection
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 22
Davie County Site
• Dust filter masks
Following use, PPEs should be disposed or adequately cleaned, dried, and readied for
reuse.
4.3 MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT HAZARD PREVENTION
The loaders, bulldozer, dump trucks, grinder, screen, and windrow turner should be operated
with care, taking all necessary precautions. All safety equipment such as horns and lights should be
functional.
4.4 EMPLOYEE HEALTH AND SAFETY
Some general safety rules are as follows:
• Make sure that you understand the job that has to be done. Review the equipment
O&M Manual prior to attempting repairs/changes.
• Use common sense when attempting a job. Use the safest way to get the work done,
including using the proper equipment and tools.
• Use the buddy system in case of repair of mechanical equipment (have a co-worker
stand guard).
• Keep the right attitude towards safety. Lack of awareness or a careless attitude can
lead to accidents.
• Make sure you know the locations of the first aid kit and fire extinguishers.
Understand how to use them.
4.4.1 Fire Extinguisher
Potential fire hazards at a compost facility are created from the build-up of fine dry dust
particles on and around operational motors and control panels. These build-ups can cause
overheating and potential fire if periodic equipment cleaning and maintenance are not practiced.
Portable fire extinguishers should be maintained in a state of readiness at the screen locations and on
each piece of moving equipment.
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 23
Davie County Site
4.4.2 Physical Exposure
Facility personnel who may be physically exposed on -site should be kept aware of the health
aspects associated with the fluids, solids, and airborne constituents found at composting facilities.
Training concerning safe work practices around these potential exposures should include all
equipment, and proper disposal procedures for contaminated materials.
4.4.2.1 Bioaerosols
Bioaerosols are small particles containing microorganisms, and are of concern as are any
materials that may contain pathogens. Bioaerosols can be created during many facility operations,
including mixing, turning, and screening of composted materials. Once airborne, bioaerosols may be
inhaled or contact the eyes. Dirty hands also may result in inadvertent transmission to the mouth or
eyes.
Facility employees should refer to Sections 4.1 Personal Hygiene and 4.2 Personal Protective
Equipment for reminder information on Health and Safety.
4.4.2.2 Dust and Litter
Excessive dust can have an irritating effect on eyes and mucous membranes if proper PPE,
such as eye protective goggles and dust filter masks, are not worn by facility personnel in affected
areas. As discussed in Section 2.2, water can be placed on windows for dust suppression. Goggles
and dust masks should be worn by staff regardless in "dusty" conditions.
The water truck will be utilized as necessary to prevent dust from leaving the site. Employees
will inspect the perimeter of the facility daily to collect litter and prevent litter from leaving the site.

5.0 CONTINGENCY PLANS
Contingency plans for unusual and adverse conditions are as follows:
5.1 EQUIPMENT BREAKDOWN
Wallace Farm conducts regular equipment maintenance. Sufficient storage of the feedstocks
is provided to allow for routine maintenance problems.
If the compost turner breaks down, loaders can be used while it is under repair. Wallace
Farm has a full time mechanic on staff and maintains a good relationship with its vendors and can
get equipment repaired quickly. However, equipment can be rented as necessary to maintain
operations.
5.2 AIR POLLUTION/ODORS
Composting is a controlled, monitored process. Steps for minimizing odors during
composting and on the site are described below. Minimize means to reduce to the smallest amount,
extent, or degree reasonably possible.
One important operational procedure is maintaining aerobic conditions within the compost
piles through adjusting the porosity and moisture content. Oxygen levels can be monitored using an
oxygen meter to assure aerobic conditions exist.
Further, ensure that moisture levels in the compost windrows are maintained in the 40 - 60%
range for newly created compost windrows and compost windrows within the PFRP period. Test for
moisture with a hand squeeze test when monitoring temperatures and record the results of the
moisture test with the temperature results, on the same form, in parentheses. It also is important to
keep temperature levels between appropriate levels, maintaining PFRP temperatures as described in
Section 2.7. Temperatures must not be allowed to get too high, which can slow down the
composting process and can lead to odors.
Additionally, the carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio of initial mixes is to be greater than 20:1 to
minimize the release of nitrogen based odorous compounds such as ammonia. This ratio is achieved
through use of standard mass balance calculations using analytical data for feedstocks, as described
in Section 2.6. All feedstock constituent data should be updated periodically through laboratory
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 26
Davie County Site
analyses, to assure the accuracy of these calculations. Nevertheless, mix samples should be pulled
periodically for carbon and nitrogen measurements by a lab, to verify that calculations are correct.
Other steps that can be considered to minimize odors include covering odorous windrows
with a layer of carbonaceous materials and placing potentially odorous materials in the center of
windrows during their construction.
5.3 NON -CONFORMING MATERIALS
Incoming feedstocks will be inspected upon arrival. Any non -conforming materials are to be
rejected, or are removed and disposed of following state regulations, including disposal in a
permitted landfill.
5.4 SPILLS
Spills of non -composted material will be cleaned up using a front-end loader and added to
active compost piles before beginning the PFRP treatment regimen.
5.5 FIRES
The local fire department will be called if buildings catch fire. If piles of material catch on
fire, the local fire department will be contacted, and a bulldozer will be used to separate the unburned
material from the burning material to prevent the fire from spreading. In case of fire (anywhere at
the facility), the following must be contacted immediately, as follows:
The local fire department: call 911.
The Division of Waste Management:
Inspector (TBD)
Jason Watkins 336-776-9674
Division Main Office 919-707-8200
And, after contacting the above, send emails to:
Jason Watkins: Jason.watkins&ncdenr.gov
Wallace Farm O&M Manual 27
Davie County Site
Arrangements have been made with the fire department to provide immediate fire -fighting
service when needed.
5.6 PARTICULATES
Particulates are generally associated with overly dry compost piles. Potable water or water
from ponds on site can be used to increase moisture content and reduce particulates, as discussed in
Section 2.2.
5.7 NOISE
Equipment normally associated with farm operations and land clearing will be used on the
site, and some noise is expected.
5.8 VECTORS
Vector attraction reduction takes place during composting. To meet vector attraction
reduction, materials are to be treated in an aerobic process for 14 days or longer, during which time
the temperature of compost shall be higher than 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees F) and the average
temperature shall be higher than 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees F). This approach is considered
very effective at controlling vectors.
Process modifications will be made, if required, to ensure these vector attraction reduction
requirements are met. This may include increasing the amount of wood material and cotton crop
material in the initial mix.
Further, Wallace Farm staff are to make visual observations for vectors.
5.9 UNUSUAL TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
Delivery schedules may be modified, as necessary, to minimize traffic impacts.

6.0 REPORTING
An annual report for the period July 1 to June 30 is submitted by August 1 of each year, using
the form provided by NC DENR. In addition, all windrow and monthly data sheets and semi-annual
product test data is submitted with the report. The following records will be maintained and available
for inspection by the County and/or the Division of Waste Management:
• Type and tons of materials received at the facility (dry weight)
• Origin of the materials
• Total tons of compost produced
• Total tons of compost used or disposed from the facility
• Monthly temperature monitoring sheets
• Product test results showing compliance with the Class A compost requirements
The monitoring requirements for Class A compost are as follows:
