Attention: Mr. Erick Saunders
Reference: Additional Information Request Dated March 3, 2020
Town of Williamston RLAP (WQ0010198)
Mr. Saunders:
Soil Plus, LLC (Soil Plus) received an Additional Information Request dated March 3, 2020
in regards to the permit renewal application submitted on behalf of the Town of
Williamston. Please accept this letter, and attachments, as response to the request. This
package includes:
1. Revised Land Owner Agreement Form (LOA 06-16)
• The land use section has been revised to hay/pasture, rather than row crop
2. Revised Residuals Land Application Program Form (RI.AP 06-16)
• This form has been revised so that fields Dunn-2 and Dunn-3 are listed as
injection/incorporation. Field Dunn-1 is still listed as surface application.
3. Revised O&M Plan
• Operational functions associated with injection/incorporation have been
added to sections 8 and 9 of the O&M Plan.
4. Revised Buffer Maps
• A buffer has been added to the pond located in the southwestern part of
the southern section of field Dunn-3. The addition of this buffer has
decreased the acreage of field 3 from 8.78 net acres to 8.32 net acres.
Although only the western section of field Dunn-3 is located in the 100-
year floodplain, the whole field will be managed as such to keep the field as
one and prevent from separating it into two sections.
5. Revised Land Application Site Certification Form (LASC 06-16)
• This form has been updated to reflect the decrease in net acreage to field
Dunn-3.
Soil Plus is responsible for completing this permit renewal/additional information request
for the Town of Williamston. If after reviewing the enclosed information you have any
questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

LAND APPLICATION OF CLASS B RESIDUAL BIOSIOLIDS
WQ#0010198
Revised March 2020

1.0 ANALYTICAL REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the hauling and land application event being schedule the generator must provide analytical results
documenting that all parameters listed in Condition IV. 2 — 4 and at the frequency listed in most recent copy of this
permit. The Town of Williamston will collect the sample prior to land application and will be done in the following
manner:
Four factors that may ultimately affect the integrity of reported data include: 1) obtaining a representative sample, 2)
preventing contamination of the sample, 3) providing legal documentation of the sampling event, and 4) protecting
the sample from chemical, physical or biological change prior to analysis.
A sample will be collected according to the schedule provided in the most recent copy of the Attachment of this
permit and prior to land application one composite sample should be pulled from a designated location from the
generating source. The Town of Williamston has identified Meritech, Inc. located in Reidsville, NC to be used as the
Certified Laboratory. The composite sample should be analyzed for:
• % Solids,
• Nitrogen Series (TKN, Ammonia, Nitrate, Nitrite, and Organic Nitrogen),
• Phosphorus,
• Potassium,
• Sulfur,
• Calcium,
• Magnesium,
• Sodium,
• Iron,
• Aluminum,
• Manganese,
• Copper,
• Zinc,
• and Remaining 503 Metals (i.e. Arsenic, Cadmium, Chromium, Mercury, Molybdenum, Lead, Nickel,
Selenium)
Approximately 2 quarts of residual should be collected. The sample containers should be clean and sterile. They
should also be labeled so that they are easily identifiable in the lab. The samples should be pulled using the method
listed below:
❖ Collect one sample from each digester(s) from which the material will be land applied using a "swing sampler"
o The swing sampler must be used with a sterile, plastic 960 ml container
❖ Combine each sample in a stainless steel bucket
❖ Mix thoroughly using a fiberglass rod
❖ Collect each sample from the top of the access point at each digester. This access point is obtained by climbing
the installed ladder on the side of the digester.
Once the sample is pulled, it should be placed in medium size cooler packed with ice. The sample should be collected
with an enough time so that it can be delivered to the laboratory.
Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

Once per calendar year a sample should be collected and submitted to Meritech Inc. located in Reidsville, NC. This
sample should be analyzed for:
• Full TCLP
• Ignitability, Corrosivity, and Reactivity
• Requires 5 Liters (In Opac Glass Bottles)
A third should be submitted to Meritech, Inc. for a 30-Day Scale Bench test and a fourth should be submitted to
Environment 1, Inc. located in Greenville, NC for Fecal Coliform Density Test. The 30-Day Scale Bench Test also
requires 1 quart of "clear" water from the Clarifier for Dilution if necessary. This sample would be analyzed for:
• 30-Day Scale Bench Test (4 Quarts of Residuals and 1 Quart of Clarifier water)
• Fecal Coliform Density Test (seven pint samples)

Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

2.0 BIOSOLIDS REMOVAL, TRANSPORT, AND APPLICATION
Biosolids will be transported from the generators to suitable, permitted land application sites. Transport equipment
will be inspected, licensed and appropriately marked, as required, for the purpose of transporting biosolids. Biosolids
will be delivered to the application sites between sunrise to sunset.
Both liquid and dewatered biosolids distribution on the land application sites will be uniform throughout the
application area. To ensure adequate control of the application rate for each site, the equipment used for spreading
the sludge will be calibrated by measuring the amount handled on a known square footage. While the rate of discharge
from the application vehicle is fixed, the speed of the equipment can be adjusted to maintain the flow rate needed to
achieve specific application rates. Spreading operations will be discontinued during periods of inclement weather and
will not be resumed until sufficient drying of the fields has occurred. This allows equipment access without causing
excessive soil compaction or rutting. To prevent adherence of the biosolids, transport vehicles will be equipped with
rear mud flaps, thereby preventing biosolids from being tracked onto roadways. Biosolids adhering to the mud flap
will be scraped off in the field before the truck returns to the roadway. Examples of our application tracking and
summary form/reports can be provided upon request.
3.0 SITE OPERATION
Biosolids will be applied at the properly calculated agronomic rate and in strict accordance with any state and federal
regulations for the land application of the biosolids. Buffer zone distances will be observed in accordance with
applicable state and federal regulations. Buffer zones will be flagged and no biosolids will be applied within those
areas. The most restrictive buffer will apply in combined situations. Operational provisions will be taken to prevent
soil loss through erosion. Provisions will include contour application and avoidance of areas where surface drainage
patterns result in concentrated flow of runoff from rainfall. In accordance with sound, industry standard agronomic
practice, areas which are unseasonably wet (and would produce rutting or damage to the field) will not be utilized for
biosolids application operations during those periods. Operations will be discontinued when soils are saturated and
will not be resumed until the field has sufficient dried. The amount of biosolids applied will not exceed the hydraulic
capacity of the soil at the time of each application. If a subsequent pass across a field is necessary to achieve the
desired application rate, sufficient drying time will be allowed between passes.
4.0 PROJECT CONTROL
To ensure biosolids are continuously applied at the correct application rate and in a manner consistent with the
Operations Plan, a Field Manager (provided by the contracted land application company) will be in direct charge of
the field operations, controlling the amount of biosolids delivered to each field, and conducting daily field inspections.
Field inspections will include ensuring that flags are in place, biosolids are applied uniformly at the designated
application rate, setbacks are observed, trucks are unloading at best location, trucks are not driving over biosolids,
trucks are cleaned before leaving the field and the land application equipment is maintained in working condition.
5.0 TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM ROUTING
Per the specifications, transportation vehicles will be equipped with GPS devices that will guide drivers to the land
application sites. Transportation routes will follow primary highways and avoid residential areas where possible.
Designated routes are followed unless a detour is specified. In the event of a detour route, it shall be taken as specified
by the detour authority. There shall be no unscheduled stops when loaded. Transportation vehicles will be inspected,
licensed and appropriately marked as required with identification numbers for the purpose of this contract. All units
will be equipped with spill guards and full mud flaps. This will prevent the biosolids from adhering to the tires and
undercarriage of the transport vehicle, thereby preventing biosolids from being tracked onto roadways. Biosolids
adhering to the mud flap will be scraped off in the field before the truck returns to the roadway. All federal OSHA
Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

and DOT laws and regulations are complied with for the protection of our clients, the community and our drivers.
Examples of vehicle and driver transportation logs and inspection forms can be provided upon request.
6.0 DEWATERED BIOSOLIDS
Dewatered biosolids will be transported in standard end dump trailers with a capacity of 22 wet tons. The trailers will
be loaded per the generator's specifications and standard protocols. The aluminum dump trailers used for
transportation of dewatered cake biosolids will be equipped with sealed tailgates and will be completely sealed to
prevent leakage. All trucks will be fully covered and will be fitted with positive lock tailgates.
7.0 LIQUID BIOSOLIDS
Liquid biosolids will be transported using 6,500 gallon capacity liquid tankers, pulled by standard road tractors. The
tankers will be loaded per the generator's specifications and standard protocols. The tractor/tanker unit will
transport its load to a designated loading/unloading area inside the buffered area of a permitted land application
site.
8.0 APPLICATION (SPREADING) — DEWATERED BIOSOLIDS
At the loading/unloading area each load will be unloaded in a designated area within the land application site. Biosolids
will be loaded into our Side Slinger cake box by a front-end loader. This unit is capable of delivering an accurate,
calibrated application of dewatered biosolids over the application site. The uniform spread pattern ensures that
biosolids are applied at proper agronomic (nutrient) and hydraulic loading rates. The application rates for each site,
and its corresponding crop, will be determined based on the Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) content of the biosolids,
or other limiting factors. Typical applications will deliver between 75 and 100 percent of a crop's annual PAN
requirement. In the event that dewatered biosolids are applied to a field where they must be injected/incorporated, a
tractor and disc will be used to incorporate the dewatered biosolids.
9.0 APPLICATION (SPREADING) — LIQUID BIOSOLIDS
At the loading/unloading area each load will be transferred into a 4,000 gallon capacity pull behind or Terra Gator
subsequent land application. This unit is capable of delivering an accurate, calibrated application of liquid biosolids
over the application site. The uniform spread pattern ensures that biosolids are applied at proper agronomic (nutrient)
and hydraulic loading rates. The application rates for each site, and its corresponding crop, will be determined based
on the Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) content of the biosolids, or other limiting factors. Typical applications will
deliver between 75 and 100 percent of a crop's annual PAN requirement. In the event that liquid biosolids are applied
to a field where they must be injected/incorporated, a Terra Gator equipped with and injection toolbar will be used
to inject the liquid biosolids or a tractor and disc will be used to incorporate the liquid biosolids.
10.0 SPILL AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROGRAM
In the unlikely event of a spill, the Town of Williamston will take the following actions immediately.
• Halt Source of Spill. Use of any leaking or damaged unit which is causing the spill will cease immediately. The
unit will be repaired before resuming its use.
• Contain Spill. In the event large quantities of biosolids have been spilled, straw bales will be used where
available and as necessary to either form a barrier or absorb biosolids.
• Clean -Up. Depending on the type and amount of biosolids spilled, a variety of equipment may be used to
remove the biosolids: front-end loader, shovels and brooms and vacuum equipment of a liquid biosolids
Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

applicator. Any biosolids removed from the spill site will be spread on an approved application site, returned
to the WWTP, or disposed of in an approved landfill.
• Final Clean -Up. Flush roadways with water or sweep as necessary to clean. Allow to dry and incorporate if
spill occurs on non -paved and tillable area. In the event a spill occurs on private property, final clean-up
should be completed immediately to the satisfaction of the owner.
• Management of Clean -Up Efforts. The Operations Manager will take immediate charge and initiate clean-up
activities. The Contract Land Applier along with the Town of Williamston labor will be used, with additional
labor secured as needed. The Operations Manager will also communicate with the public on the scene,
answering questions and advising of clean-up activities.
• Reporting. All spills will be reported immediately to the Town of Williamston officials. State and local agencies
will be notified in accordance with their notification requirements. Within 24 hours of the spill, the Operations
Manager will send the Town of Williamston a written report detailing how the spill occurred and remedial
action taken. This report will be provided using the enclosed Spill Report form.
• Spill Prevention. The Operations Manager will implement the following spill prevention measures:
o Ensure truck drivers watch trailer while loading and do not overload;
o Ensure trailer hatches are closed and latched while transporting;
o Ensure trailer seals are inspected on a daily basis and replaced as necessary; and
o Ensure unloading operations in the field are conducted to minimize any potential runoff or tracking.
The Town of Williamston require that the Contract Land Applier shall ensure that all employees receive safety and
spill response training as part to their new hire training and thereafter participate in our monthly safety and spill
response training program. In addition to their internal training and protocols, they must also contract with a regional
emergency response firm - HEPACO - available to respond to an incident in the Central and Eastern North Carolina
area within two hours. A copy of our agreement with HEPACO can be provided upon request.

11.0 PREVENTION
The goal of a compliance assurance system is to prevent compliance issues from occurring. Prevention involves:
• Ensuring personnel understand their role in assuring compliance;
• Identifying compliance requirements at the federal, state and local levels;
• Implementing a system where compliance tasks are scheduled, assigned and tracked to completion;
• Developing standard operating procedures where appropriate; and
Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

• Reviewing the compliance task list and standard operating procedures on an ongoing basis and modifying
them as appropriate to account for changes in regulations/requirements and operating methods, and to
address compliance deficiencies.
12.0 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES (SOP's)
The Town of Williamston will direct the Contract Land Applier to develop and implements SOPS to ensure
compliance tasks are completed consistently across the company. The SOP provides standard forms to use, approved
biosolids analytical methods, frequency of monitoring information, etc. Another key SOP relative to preventing
compliance issues from occurring is the use of a "Pre -Operating and Buffer Checklist".
The Pre -Operating and Buffer Checklist ensures federal, state and local regulations and permit requirements are met
prior to initiating biosolids applications at field sites. Compliance items on the Checklist include:
• The field is permitted and suitable for the biosolids/residuals type being applied;
• Pre -application requirements are met;
• Farmer and landowner agreements are current and the crop to be grown has been verified;
• The field is flagged to prevent applications in buffer zones and restricted areas;
• The appropriate application rate and field capacity is calculated; and
• Any special permit or local requirements are met.
• A listing of the buffer zones and restricted areas where biosolids/residuals cannot be applied
• A listing of operating requirements including notification requirements,
• application method requirements, and inclement weather operating requirements
13.0 ASSESMENT
To help ensure compliance requirements are being met and the compliance assurance system is implemented and
working, periodic, consistent, objective and documented assessments of the project/facility's compliance status are
conducted.
14.0 CORRECTIVE ACTION
Once compliance issues have been identified during the course of day to day business and through internal audits and
inspections a system must be in place which ensures that appropriate and timely corrective action is taken, the cause
of the compliance issue is identified and actions are taken to prevent recurrence of the issue.
The Town of Williamston's goal is to have no instances of non-compliance. However, issues and incidents may occur
and when this happens employees work to correct the incident in a timely and thorough manner. When compliance
issues are identified, the situation is examined to determine the root cause of the problem and the corrective and
preventive action that must be taken. The preventive action must address the root cause with the goal of preventing
a recurrence.
Depending on the nature of the compliance issue, it is assigned to one or more responsible parties to ensure that the
corrective and preventive actions are implemented. A deadline for completion of the task is assigned and the issue is
tracked to completion by regional and corporate compliance personnel.
Revised 03/20 OTown of Williamston Operation and Maintenance Plan

15.0 TRAINING
An effective compliance training program involves:
• Identifying training needs and requirements;
• Assigning personnel to provide training and providing them the resources they need to conduct training;
• Documenting and tracking that mandatory t raining has occurred; and
• An employee's training needs and requirements, as well as their training responsibilities, are based on
his/her position within the company.

The Town of Williamston's WWTP receives wastewater from the sewer collection
system at the influent pumping station where the flow is pumped up to the preliminary
treatment unit which removes sand, grit and larger materials. The flow then continues to
the flow splitter and on to the aeration basin / oxidation ditch. Here the biological process
takes place. From here the biomass continues on to the clarifiers where settling occurs.
From the clarifiers the settled sludge is either returned to the aeration basin or wasted to
the sludge holding lagoons. The clear water leaving the clarifiers then goes to the effluent
pump station where it is pumped to the chlorine contact chamber while along the way
receiving sodium hypochlorite in the injection vault. The flow continues through the
contact chamber and where at the outfall sodium bisulfite is added to remove chlorine
below 28 ug/1. The flow then continues to the reaeration basin where the D.O. is raised to
>5.0 mg/1. From the reaeration basin the flow continues to the plant discharge and on to
outfall 001 where the treated flow is discharged into the Roanoke River.
