Sample will be taken with sterile gloves from 12 to 15 inches in pile with sterile digging tool
Place in plastic bag and keep refrigerated until sent to lab on same day or next day
Results must show less than 1000 facial coliform per gram
Results will be maintained in office
A composite sample will be used for metals
2 to 4 cups of compost will be taken from each windrow placed in a plastic bag and sent to the NCDA lab
for complete waste analyzes
Record keeping
Daily operational records must be maintained, which include, at a minimum, temperature data [length of
the composting period] and quantity of material processed
