Permit: NCG240007 Owner - Facility: City of High Point
Inspection Date: 02/07/2017 Inspection Typo: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
This inspection was conducting following a complaint from an adjoining neighbor claiming the facility was responsible for
erosion of the creek at the rear of his property. The complaintant does has an issue of significant erosion of the creek
banks but that erosion is not a result of anything coming off of the Ingleside Compost Facility. The faciltiy appears well
maintained with the excepting of some lawn bag debris over the site. There was no obvious trenching, ruts or even paths
with staining where water had flowed from the mulch yard to the adjoining complaintant.
The complaint against High Point's Ingleside Compost Facility was found to be "Non -Valid".

Facility Site Review: -'
This facility is a Type 1 Composting Facility. Only yard waste in the form of grass clippings,
leaves, and tree debris are accepted. The waste is then turned into mulch and topsoil and sold to
the general public for individual private use in landscapes and gardening.
Effluent Receiving Waters:
Effluent from industrial activities drains to Rich Fork Creek, "Class C" waters of the Yadkin Pee
Dee River Basin via four (4) outfalls located outside the fenced area.
Self -Monitoring Program:
Qualitative and Analytical Monitoring are required to be performed quarterly as listed in the
permit. Qualitative Monitoring has been performed as required. Analytical Monitoring is about
to begin but has not been conducted to this date. Please begin monitoring as the permit requires.
If monitoring cannot be performed due to the lack of a "measureable storm event", please record
"No Flow" or "No Discharge" and file in the monitoring records. All records must be
maintained for five (5) years.
There are four (4) outfalls. For safety of those collecting samples for monitoring, samples may
be taken at the fence line, rather than further downstream as long is good representative samples
can be collected. Results should be submitted to NCDEQ Stormwater Permitting in Raleigh for
review and record.
Process waste management requirements of the General Permit, per Session Law 212-200,
suspends process wastewater standards for facilities that are classified as "Type 1" Composting
