Re: Permit to Operate – Mecklenburg County Compost and Recycling Facility Type 1
Compost Operation; Mecklenburg County NC Permit #6036-COMPOST-2017
DIN 27608

Dear Mr. Smithberger:

Please find enclosed the signed Permit to Operate (DIN 27607) for Mecklenburg County
Compost and Recycling Facility located 140 Valleydale road, Charlotte, NC. This permit
issuance approves the continued operation of the facility under the terms and
conditions of the permit. In general, the facility permit does not reiterate permit
conditions included in the Solid Waste Management Rules, 15A NCAC 13B, nor does it
restate specific conditions that are included within the approved plans, such as site
specific operations. Please review the conditions of the permit carefully. A copy of the
current permit, approved Operations Plan, and other required documentation must be
kept on site at all times.

If you have any questions regarding the permit or its conditions, please feel free to
contact me at [phone] or at [e-mail]. The Solid Waste
Management Specialist for the facility is Ms. Teresa Bradford. She can be reached at
[phone].

With Best Regards,
