Subject: Storm Water Permit Requirements for Composting Operation
Ken,
Can you please let me know the storm water permitting requirements for a composting operation classed as a Large,
Type-4 solid waste composting facility? They accept a variety of material from agricultural and industrial sources (yard
waste, wood pallets, food wasete, anmal waste sludge, sheetrock, etc). Their processes are contained in a building,
although some storage and processes, such as uncontaminated pallets and a wood grinding process is conducted
outdoors
Would they require coverage under a General Permit at minimum, or require that a "No Exposure..." form be
submitted? I'm wondering is there is some sort of categorical exemption for composting.
Thanks,
Christine K. Brenk, CHMM

Danny,
Please see NOI attached. I'm also sending you separately a copy of the full-size plans submitted.
We have received an application for coverage of an existing compost facility under NCG 24 from McGill Environmental
Systems of NC, Inc. The facility drains to an UT to Shaddox Creek (class W5-IV) in New Hill (Chatham County). They have
vehicle maintenance, but no haz. waste. Ken has also looked through this one, and does not have any issues with
issuing. Does the RRO have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this general permit?
Thanks.

' Narrative
General
' McGill Environmental Systems of N.C., Inc. operates the Chatham Facility which is also called
the Merry Oaks Facility. This facility is located at 634 Christian Chapel Church Road in New
Hill, North Carolina, 27562. The contact person is Steve Cockman and he may be reached at
[phone]. Division of Waste Management permit SWC 19-06 allows the production of
"finished compost" from the Large — Type 4 Solid Waste Compost Facility.
When the McGill Chatham facility p re opened in 2002 it resented the best available and
p
t affordable design available to McGill. Through the eight years of operation at Chatham and the
design and construction of two new McGill plants elsewhere in the world a number of design and
operational improvements have been developed and implemented at the Chatham Facility where
' at all feasible and beneficial.
1 Compost Manufacturing Sequence
The Glenville Compost Option, which has been in use for a number of years in Ireland, calls for
more active management of the material within the building through earlier screening and
significant curing indoors. This results in diminishing outside curing and operating a plant on a
significantly smaller footprint. All materials are blended inside the building and then moved to
aerated processing bays. The material is screened indoors after one week when Process to
Further Reduce Pathogens (PFRP) has been achieved. The screened material is then returned for
further processing/curing for an additional 14 plus days. At that point material can be moved a
' third time for further curing outside.
In a well controlled aerated static pile environment the most intense biological activity takes
1 place in the first few days. The early screening further homogenizes the mix, redistributes
moisture and enzymes stimulating further rapid biodegradation. There is also a very significant
space efficiency gained through the screening process.
