SUBJECT Domestic Sewage Sludge
Town Of Marshall,
M,idi.son County, N.C.
Reference is made to Your recent conversation with Heath
Dobson, our engineer, regarding the disposal of sludge. The Town
Of Marshall would like to dispose of dewat.ered sludge at the
Madison County Landfill. We will perform an analysis of the
sludge to insure you it is not toxic based on the standard EP
toxicity test required by EPA.
After consideration of this matter the Town requests that
written authorization to dispose of dewatered sludge in the
Madison County Landfill be granted to The Town Of Marshall, if
this is acceptable to you.
Thank You for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,

Dear Sir,
January 27, 1988
SUBJECT: Sludge Disposal
Town Of Marshall
Madison County,
North Carolina
The Town of Marshal1 is presently disposing of sewage sludge
on their own property and would like to begin disposing of it at
the Madison County Landfill. The Town of Mars Hill is currently
using the landfill for disposing of their sludge, so I would not
anticipate any problems.
Attached is a brochure describing the type of equipment to
be used for transportation and disposal of the sludge.
Please provide me with "a letter of acceptance, in that. an
approved disposal site is a federal grant requirement which the
Town needs to sat.i.sfy as soon as possible

PROCEDURE AND CRITERIA FOR WASTE DETERMINATION
This procedure will be used by the Division of Health Services to
determine whether a waste is (1) hazardous as defined by 10 NCAC IOF, and (2)
suitable for disposal at a solid waste management facility.
The types of wastes that will be evaluated by this procedure are
primarily, but not exclusively, industrial and commercial wastes and sludges,
and Publicly Owned Treatment Works Sludges.
The Division of Health Services reserves the right to request additional
information or waive some of the requirements based on the type of waste if it
deems necessary. The Division may also require some wastes to be treated or
altered to render the waste environmentally immobile prior to disposal at a.
sanitary landfill. Wastes disposed at sanitary landfills must be non -liquid
and in a form that can be confined, compacted, and covered in accordance with
the "Solid Waste Management Rules". APPROVAL TO DISPOSE OF THE WASTE SHALL
ALSO BE OBTALNED FROM THE OWNER OR OPERATOR OF THE LANDFILL PRIOR TO DISPOSAL.

Dear Mr. Dobson:
In order to expedite an evaluation of the subject waste, a copy of the
analytical results from an E.P. Toxicity Test are required. Also, it will be
necessary for one or our waste management specialists to personally evaluate
the waste at your facility. Upon completion of this inspection and tie E.P.
Toxicity analysis results, this office will contact you regarding our decision.

#58-02)
Dear Mr. Boone:
The Solid Waste Management Section has received a request for
characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted
information, the waste is non -hazardous. The Solid Waste Management
Section has no objection to the sanitary landfill disposal of the
waste if in accordance with the conditions listed below.
1. The owner/operator of the landfill approves the disposal.
2. The waste contains no -free liquids.
3. The sludge is used as a soil conditioner and incorporated
within the final two feet of earthen cover at agricultural
rates.
4. Additionally a submittal of the Waste Determination Form
and supportive analytical data is required on the third
anniversary of this approval.
The landfill may place limits on the amount of sludge received
based upon available capacity and weather conditions.
Failure to meet these conditions may result in revocation of
this approval and subsequently, an administrative penalty. If you
have further questions concerning this matter, please contact this

Subject: Disposal of 12 cubic yards per week of cured thermoset molding compound
at the Madison County Landfill (Permit #58-02).
Dear Mr. Dudley:
General Statute 130A-294 authorizes the Solid Waste Management Section to
regulate solid waste management in North Carolina. It, therefore, gives authority
to the Section to evaluate wastes that may pose a threat to the environment or to
public health and to subsequently prohibit disposal of these wastes at a sanitary
landfill in accordance with Sections .0103(d) and (e) of the Solid Waste
Management Rules, 10 N.C.A.C. 10G.
Your recent request for disposal of the subject waste has been critically
reviewed and evaluated by section personnel. It is concluded that the waste is
not suitable for sanitary landfill disposal due to the organic constituents
(phenol and formaldehyde) indicated on the MSDS. For this reason your request is
denied. It is recommended that the waste be analyzed for constituent
concentrations and resubmitted to the Solid Waste Branch for review or transported
to a secure facility permitted to receive this waste type.
If you have any further questions please contact this office at
[phone].

Dexter Matthews

PROCEDURE AND CRITERIA FOR WASTE DETERMINATION
This procedure will be used by the Division of Health Services
to determine whether a waste is (1) hazardous as defined by 10 NCAC
10F, and (2) suitable for disposal at a solid waste management
facility.
The types of wastes that will be evaluated by this procedure are
primarily, but not exclusively, industrial and commercial wastes and
sludges, and Publicly Owned Treatment Works Sludges.
The Division of Health Services reserves the right to request
additional information or waive some of the requirements based on the
type of waste if it deems necessary. The Division may also require
some wastes to be treated or altered to render the wastes
environmentally immobile prior to disposal at a sanitary landfill.
Wastes disposed at sanitary landfills must be non -liquid and in a
form that can be confined, compacted, and covered in accordance with
the "Solid Waste Management Rule",. APPROVAL TO DISPOSE OF THE WASTE
SHALL ALSO BE OBTAINED FROM THE OWNER OR OPERATOR OF THE LANDFILL
PRIOR TO DISPOSAL.
The following information is required for an evaluation. An
asterisk(*) denotes information required for Publicly Owned Treatment
Works.

yes, what constituents and what concentration? (Attach
laboratory results) See Attachments
2. What other constituents are present and in what concentration?
(Attach laboratory results)
*3. What is the moisture content? (Attach laboratory results)
*4. Does the waste pass the "paint filter" test for free liquids
(Method 9095 in S.W. 846)? (Attach laboratory results) N/A

PROCESSING PROCEDURES
1. Most single -stage compounds will polymerize in storage, therefore store in cool, dry area — normally no
longer than six months.
2. Phenolic single -stage compounds should be molded in a clean, well polished, chromed mold that is
adequately vented. Mold temperatures between 300OF and 340OF are suggested. For best molding, com-
pounds should be preheated to temperatures between 205OF and 2250F. Molding pressures between 2000
and 6000 psi are recommended. Single -stage compounds have been molded in reciprocating screw
presses but are sensitive to processing temperatures.
3. To improve physical properties, electrical properties, and dimensional stability, molded parts should be post
baked prior to use.
The Typical Values listed are results obtained from the testing of standard specimens using the staled test p•ccedures, with said specimens molded
under controlled laboratory conditions from representative samples of the product. Although Plastics Engineering Company at all times reserves the
right to make changes in the materials, suppliers and processing, the Values listed as typical are those to be eicected at the time of our manufacture.
The final determination of the accuracy or completeness of any information, the suitability of the product for:-e use contemplated, the manner of its
use, and the matter of any infringement of patents in use, are all the sole responsibility of the user.
