FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section Page 2 of 7 ADDITIONAL COMMENTS 1. David Powell, with the Section, followed up on corrective actions at the YWN. Temporary Disaster Debris Site, TDDS, DS78-035, next to notification. Waste was previously taken into the area of the TDDS and the Town of Red Springs was instructed to remove the waste. During this inspection most of the waste has been removed. However, in the two locations, mulched yard waste was spread out in the same area along with much trash such as plastic and clothing etc. This site is not approved for this waste and should be removed immediately to the appropriate landfill site for that waste type. 2. Reminder: A Yard Waste Notification is a Small Type 1 facility. It shall have an operations area less than two acres in size and shall be limited to no more than 6,000 cubic yards’ material onsite at any given time, including finished product. Rules were readopted in late 2019 (15A NCAC 13B .1400’s rules for Small Type 1 Compost facilities (Yard Waste Notifications). A review of the new rule changes would be good for any staff dealing with the YWN. Yard waste cannot remain in the notification for disposal. If not using for approved processes, then must remove to a disposal site for that waste type. A YWN is for staging, processing and composting. Facility cannot give waste out to public without meeting requirements of 15A NCAC 13B .1406 rules. Renewal shall be submitted by June 1st of each year. 3. Wetland area has had all waste removed. T posts marking the ~ wetland area plus a 50 ft buffer are in place but the string has fallen. Be sure to keep all traffic, waste, vehicles etc. out of the wetland area.

Mr. Powell walked from the road entrance into site to do inspection. Newer YW now has good row separation. Good job. Newer YW windrows. FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section Page 4 of 7 5. Previously, the older YW was mulched and windrowed into an area outside of the notification and where the disaster debris site (DS78-035) was designated. This is not an approved activity. The Town was instructed in the previous inspection (2/9/2023) to remove the YW to an appropriate disposal site. Weight tickets were provided by Mr. Edge on 3/27/2023 for disposal at the Robeson County Landfill. However, upon follow up inspection, not all the mulched YW was removed. It was spread out across a large area along with comingled MSW waste such as plastics and clothing. All waste needs removal to soil, disposal at the appropriate disposal site for that waste type, documentation provided to the Section within 30 days of receipt of this inspection report, or a Notice of Violation will be sent. YW mulch spread out with unapproved waste near the back of open area. (Inside TDDS) Remove to appropriate disposal site. YWN is behind and right. Wetland area out of frame on right.
