ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. All photographs were taken by Troy Harrison on October 13, 2016.
2. The Septage Land Application Site consists of 65.66 acres which is divided into Field 1 (9.26 acres); Field 2
(21.08 acres); Field 3 (9.99 acres) and Field 4 (9.22 acres).
3. The site is permitted for land application of domestic septage, portable toilet waste and grease septage.
4. The site is located at 1885 Long Island Road and had gated, accessible all-weather roads to the septage land application field covered under the permit.
5. Appropriate signage was displayed at the site.
6. Disposal area boundaries were delineated with permanent markers however several markers were down and will need to be replaced. As noted in the previous inspection, the marker at the southern point of Field 4 was on the ground and will need to be replaced.
7. All septage discharges appear to have been made within the disposal area boundary with the exception of the southern point of Field 4 and in a swale area of Field 2. Septage land applications were observed
outside of the southern point of Field 4 (which also has the boundary marker down) and in the swale area of Field 2. 8. In Field 5, a recent land application was observed. In addition, cattle were also observed in Field 5 with access to field 2 maintained. The nutrient management plan requires that cattle not be placed in a field until at least 30 days after the last land application event.

The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an
administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit, or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to
enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility or a solid waste collection service and any such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules.

Field 5 with recent land application 9. There is no evidence of standing liquid or pooled waste. The waste appeared to be evenly distributed throughout the fields.

10. Field 1 is currently not in use. The permit stipulates that Field 1 shall not be used for land application until the paddocks have been removed, a pre-operational inspection has been performed and been approved by the Division.

11. The approved nutrient management plan for field 2, 4 and 5 includes the planting of fescue and matua. Field 2 had a new fence bisecting the field. Fields 2 and 4 contained a lot of weeds. The nutrient
management plan requires reseeding if the approved groundcover is less than 85%. Field 3 is planted in switch and rye grass according to the nutrient management plan.
As a reminder, Fields cannot be used for land application unless an adequate fescue and matua crop (for Fields 2, 4 & 5) and rye and switchgrass (for Field 3) is established and maintained. Planting of other cover crops is not approved in the current Nutrient Management Plan. You can also contact the Catawba
County Cooperative Extension at 828-465-8240 for advice on field maintenance and weed control.
12. No objectionable odors were observed. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report.
