46. PS-01-01 and PS-01-02 were inspected August 1,2013.A revised map of Field 1 was subsequently submitted
to WSRO on August 2,2013 (the revised map added a water supply well with appropriate buffers).All other
site features were found to be compliant.
A copy of the revised map for Field 1 should have been sent to the CO files, if CO or RRO need a copy of this
map,please let me know.
lipWhile the other fields proposed for transfer to the City of Durham's program(WQ0003504)have not been
recently inspected,I do not foresee any issues with the transfer of the subject fields.
4 After removing the acreage contained within the proposed fields for transfer, it appears that there is sufficient
acreage remaining to support the active sources contained within Permit WQ0034195.

REFERENCE: APPLICATION FOR MODIFICATION OF PERMIT#WQ0003504
CITY OF DURHAM
Dear Mr. Risgaard:
On behalf of the City of Durham, Synagro is submitting this application to modify the referenced
residuals land application permit. This modification application is requesting the transfer of 27
fields. A total of 716.7 application acres are to be added. The new total acreage for this program
will then be 3517.8 acres. Changes in buffer(application area) maps and their corresponding
acreages(net increases) have occurred to some fields due only to removal of parcel line buffers
and a reduction in on-site well buffer from 250 feet to 100 feet as allowed by the "2T"
regulations. The forms required for this modification; RLAP, LASC(and required items), are
included. A check in the amount of$395.00, for a major modification of a non-discharge permit,
is attached. No other changes to the City of Durham's permit are requested at this time.
This application package is believed to contain all of the information necessary to complete the
requested modification of the City of Durham permit. However, if you require additional
information or have further questions about the included information, please contact me at
[e-mail] or cell phone number [phone]. Thank you in advance for the
timely and efficient review of this application.

Inspection Summary:
Inspection of land application site PS-01 (Fields 1 &2 only)was conducted on August 1, 2013. The residuals source
facility (City of Mebane)was not reviewed during this inspection. No land application or transport was taking place at the
time of the inspection. The land application event is planned to begin in the near future as soon as conditions allow. Mr.
Sidney Thompson (land owner)was present for a brief period during inspection; the remainder of the inspection was
conducted unaccompanied. The following observations should be noted:
Application tractors#74-598 and #74-700 were reviewed; appear to be in good condition, but not in operation during
inspection.
FIELD-1 (reviewed northern portions only)
- Field was wet due to recent rainfall.
-While proper buffers were in place based upon the buffer flags present, there was a well present that was not shown on
the site map. NOTE: A revised site map showing the well and associated buffers was submitted to DWR on August 2,
2013.
-Cattle were still present in the field. NOTE: Synagro representatives indicated on August 5, 2013 that the cattle had
been excluded from the land application areas.
-All other observations (e.g. buffers, vegetative cover, topo features, etc.)were found to be compliant.
FIELD-2 (reviewed northern portions only)
-Observations (e.g. flagged buffers, vegetative cover, topo features, etc.) were found to be compliant.
- Field was wet due to recent rainfall.

Chonticha,
I have completed reviewing the application package for WQ0036561. Below are my comments and recommendations.
1. After removing the acreage contained within the land owned by Mr.Sidney Thompson (Land App. Site NC-PS-1,
Fields 1- 12), it appears that there is sufficient acreage remaining to support the proposed land application
activities contained within this application.
2. I recommend that we request revised application forms showing the removal of Mr.Sidney Thompson's
property from this application package.
3. Based on the facility site plan provided in the application and the previous facility reporting by Synagro, I believe
the treatment process options at the facility should be sufficient to meet Class B requirements. I wish we had
time to schedule and conduct a site visit to the Danville WWTP. However, I believe Stephen intends on
conducting a facility inspection sometime in the near future. Hopefully this inspection will coincide with the
initial land application event by EMA Resources.They tell us the event will likely occur in August or September
this year.
4. I do not forsee any problems with issuance of this permit. Upon receipt of complete and accurately revised
forms, I recommend issuing the permit.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 15, 2013
TO: David Goodrich, CO—LAU
THROUGH: Sherri V. Knight, WSRO Supervisor
FROM: Patrick Mitchell, WSRO /fn
SUBJECT: Inspection Report
Application for Permit Modification
Synagro Central, LLC—Residuals Land Applicaiton
Permit No. WQ0034195
The WSRO has completed a review of the subject application. A site visit was not conducted. Based upon the
subject review, it is the WSRO's recommendation to issue the permit after the following question is
addressed:
Is the existing permitted 889.3 total acres enough acreage to support the proposed new total of 5,000 dry
tons per year(Mebane-300 +Danville-2,500+Townsend WTP-2,200)?
REASON FOR QUESTION:
According to the application the existing acreage is made up of the following:
• Row Crops= 11.3 acres
• Hay= 516.8 acres
• Pasture= 361.2 acres
The estimated PAN rating for each of these field use types varies widely depending on soil type (* and crop
type for the Row Crop acreage). An estimated PAN range for each would be:
• Row Crops = *115 —231 lbs PAN/acre/year
• Hay= 158—223 lbs PAN/acre/year
• Pasture= 118— 168 lbs PAN/acre/year(based on a 25%reduction due to grazing)
Based on the table located under item III. C. in Form RLAP 01-12, the application rate would have to be nearly
200 lbs PAN/acre/year. Looking at the PAN range listed above for the different field uses, they may have a
difficult time land applying all residuals staying at or below the approved PAN application rates based on RYE.
Please let me know if you need any additional information or have questions.

Subject: RE: Additional Information requested for Permit WQ0034195
David,
As long as Synagro does not land apply for all three facilities in a given year, at the permitted yearly amount, Marshall's
explanation should hold true. He states that Mebane WWTP will be the only facility land applying this year,and that
Townsend and Danville will not be applied in the same year...but what if this changes?
I am a cautious about saying that his explanation is completely satisfactory for the following reasons: 1)we cautioned
them in the February 25, 2011 Attachment A Certification cover letter that it would take most, if not all of the permitted
acreage (889.3 acres) to land apply all of the permitted dry tons(4,700 at that time),and 2)we are approving all three
sources (5,000 total dry tons/year) for the existing permitted acreage, knowing that the currently permitted acreage will
likely not support land application of the new total permitted dry tons.
I would feel more comfortable if they woul
f we cannot require this,then at minimum, I think we should a a permit con ition
t at stipIllIIIu a es: in a event that the newly permitted yearly total amount is land applied,additional acreage will likely
need to be added to the permit to support the nutrient load (PAN); requesting that they apply for this modification in a
timely manner to allow land addition to the permit prior to the need. Re-enforcing this in the permit cover letter is a
very good idea as well.

Patrick,
Do you think this is a satisfactory answer to our concerns about the PAN loading issue? I intend to re-enforce this in the
Permit Cover Letter so there will be no misunderstandings.

David,
The addition of the 300 dry tons from Mebane WWTP will not endanger the land application program managed by
Synagro due to the fact that the dry tonnage from Greensboro Lake Townsend nor Danville WWTP will not all be
applied in the same year. Danville nor Greensboro will be applied this year to any land in this permit. The only source
that will be applied this year will be the Mebane WWTP material. Synagro will manage the land application process so
that in the event that these projects would need to be run in the same year we will know this far enough in advance to
be able to permit additional land to handle the permitted dry tonnage and nutrients if necessary.
I hope this answers your questions and concerns about the permit WQ0034195.
If you have further questions please contact me.

Marshall,
The Aquifer Protection Section is in receipt of your application to add residuals from the City of Mebane to the existing
residuals land application program operated by Synagro Central, LLC.
There is no addition of land in the requested permit modification, and we are concerned that the program will not be
able to accommodate the intended additional loading of 300 Dry Tons per Year from the standpoint of Plant Available
Nitrogen (PAN).As you are aware,the permit was modified on February 25, 2011 by increasing the total residual loading
from 2,900 Dry Tons per Year to 4,700 Dry Tons per Year. In our cover letter, we recommended caution in the
application of residuals to a land area that was essentially at capacity and could be endangered by over-application.
2

ease explain how the intended addition of 300 Dry Tons per Year to the land application program (which uses a
combination of Row Crops, Hay, and Pasture)would not endanger the application areas from the standpoint of
overloading those areas (exceeding the Realistic Yield Expectations).
Thank you.

Dear Mr. Puryear:
On July 29, 2010 staff of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's Winston-
Salem Regional Office (DWQ) performed a compliance inspection on fields
permitted under DWQ permit WQ0034195. Enclosed is the compliance inspection
report for this inspection. This inspection was conducted for field conditions only.
The inspection was conducted as a result of an anonymous complaint received by
DWQ. Review of field conditions reflects compliance with permit WQ0034195.
Please refer to the enclosed field summary notes for details on the complaint
investigation.
A file review of the 2009 annual report was also conducted. The facility was found to
be in compliance with permit WQ0034195. In the 2009 annual report the permittee
was self reported as non-compliant for not meeting the required quarterly monitoring
frequency. The required samples that were not taken in 2009 were missed prior to
the permit being issued in September 2009 and therefore the permittee was in
compliance with the permit. Please find enclosed a copy of the annual report review
conducted on August 3, 2010.

Field Summary Notes
On Thursday July 29, 2010 at approximately 9:45 am, DWQ staff person Patrick
Mitchell met with Synagro representative Mr. Marshall Puryear, as a result of a
complaint received on July 23, 2010. The residuals being land applied were generated
by the City of Danville WWTP, located in Danville, Virginia, and land applied to the sites
under DWQ permit: WQ0034195, issued to Synagro. Site visits were made to a total of
four ( 4) application field locations, all owned by Mr. Sidney Thompson in western
Person County.
The first application field visited was PS-1-field 4. This field is located on
Cunningham Road in Person County. According to Synagro, "cake" residuals from
Danville WWTP had been applied to the hay field the previous week. Synagro indicated
that this was the only field that had received an application of the "cake" residuals. At
the time of the site visit there appeared to be approximately 2 to 4%, by volume, plastics
mixed into the residuals. The majority of the plastics appeared to be lagoon liner. Some
other plastics (feminine products, straws, etc.) were included in the residuals, but at a
much smaller concentration. Synagro indicated that the original concentration of plastics
was higher and some cleanup to the site had already been completed the previous
week. Synagro indicated that Danville WWTP was aware of the plastics and much of
the plastic was lagoon liner disturbed during a WWTP lagoon cleanout for a lagoon
closure. The observed buffers appeared to be adequate. No signs of ponding or run-off
were observed and there was good cover vegetation.
Three (3) other application fields (one located on Black Wolfe Road, one on
Barker Road, and one on Cunningham Road) were also visited. All three fields were in
Person County. Synagro indicated that liquid residuals from Danville WWTP had been
applied to all three of these fields. At the time of the site visit there were no plastics
observed in any of these three fields. Buffers appeared to be adequate. No signs of
ponding or run-off were observed and there was good cover vegetation.
Synagro did indicate that there would likely be more "cake" residuals from
Danville WWTP land applied next week (August 2nd — 6th) and that the residuals would
likely contain a similar plastic content as the previous applications. The land owner
(Sidney Thompson) met with us prior to leaving the site. Synagro had a plastic cleanup
agreement form for the landowner to sign. Synagro indicated that this form stated that
Danville WWTP would be responsible for cleanup of any plastics included in the
residuals applied, if the land owner would allow them to apply the residuals. Synagro
indicated that Danville had contracted with a landscaping company for cleanup of any
plastics included in the residuals. PLM

Quantitative Justification for Residuals Production

Quantitative Justification for Residuals Production Rate
Facility:
City of Greensboro Lake Townsend WTP
Requested Permitted Rate:
1,500 dry tons/year
Justification:
The City of Greensboro currently produces and stores it's water plant residuals in a
settling basin that it cleans out every 2-3 years. It is at this time that the volume of solids
is calculated based on the percent solids of the lagoon and the depth of the solids.
Calculations:
The average depth is 13 feet deep with a percent solids range of 1.5% - 2.4%. The lagoon
capacity is approximately 10 MG which equates to approximately 1500 dry tons. This is
information that was given to Synagro by the City for the purpose of bidding on the project.

9. Residuals and other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) shall be land applied to all land
application sites at or below agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using
expected nitrogen requirements based on the Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) for each approved
land application site. Realistic Yield Expectations for crop types and specific fields or soil types
shall be determined by using any of the following methods:
a. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as provided by North Carolina
State University Department of Soil Science. The Department webpage is located at:
http://nutrients.soil.ncsu.edu/yields/
b. Site Specific Historical Data for crop types on specific fields or soil types by calculating the
mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field.
li
WQ0034195 Version 1.0 Shell Version 090204 Page 4 of 15

c. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods 9(a) or (b) above, RYE can be established
from specially developed soil interpretation records for Nutrient Management Planning, Farm
Service Agency Records, university trials, or inference from crop performance on soil with
very similar physical and chemical features.
d. Realistic Yields Expectations and acceptable nitrogen application rates that use the above
methodology are required parts of many agricultural planning documents. The Permittee may
use the RYE and appropriate agronomic rates reported in any of the following documents:
i. Crop management plan as outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource
Conservation Service,or other agronomist.
ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group- Guidance
Document: Chapter 1. Guidance for the completion of the plan can be found at:
http://www.enr.state.nc.us/DSWC/pages/guidance docs.html.
iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by Natural Resources Conservation
Services (NRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
Standards,which are available at:
ftp://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda.gov/NHO/practice-standards/standards/590.pdf.
e. For any crop type for which the RYE and appropriate nitrogen application rate cannot be
determined,the Permittee shall contact the Division to determine necessary action.
10. If the land application sites are to be overseeded or doublecropped (e.g., bermuda grass in the
summer and rye grass in the winter with BOTH crops to receive residuals or corn and small grain
both to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive an application of PAN at a rate of no
greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. This practice shall be allowed as long as the second crop is
to be harvested. If the second crop is to be planted for erosion control only and is to be tilled into the
soil, then no residuals shall be land applied to these sites because the PAN will essentially be
returned to the soil.
Prior to application of PAN to permitted sites at rates exceeding the agronomic rate, the Permittee
must submit and receive approval by the Division.
11. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source-generating facilities listed in the most
recently-certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high sodium
adsorption ratio (SAR) of ten (10) or higher), the Permittee shall obtain and implement
recommendations from the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, a North Carolina-licensed Soil
Scientist, or other agronomist regarding sodium application rate, soil amendments (e.g., gypsum,
etc.) or other ameliorative mechanisms for maintaining the integrity of the site in terms of suitability
for land application of residuals and maintaining conditions conducive to crop growth. The
Permittee shall maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites
covered and rate of soil amendment application.
WQ0034195 Version 1.0 Shell Version 090204 Page 5 of 15

12. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for residuals land application programs is specified by
regulations in 15A NCAC 2L (i.e., "Groundwater Classifications and Standards"). The Compliance
Boundary for each land application site is established at either 250 feet from the residuals land
application area or 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the residuals land
application area. Per 15A NCAC 2T .0105(h), upon request by the Permittee, the Compliance
Boundary may be located closer to the waste disposal area (provided the groundwater standards can
be met at the newly established Compliance Boundary). Any approved relocation of the
COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY will be noted in the most recently-certified Attachment B of this
permit. An exceedance of Groundwater Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject
to remediation action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in
accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C.
13. The REVIEW BOUNDARY shall be established around each land application site midway between
the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the residuals land application area. Any exceedance
of Groundwater Quality Standards at the Review Boundary shall require action in accordance with
15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(1).
14. The appropriate local governmental official (i.e., county manager, city manager, etc.) shall be
notified at least 24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event to any new land
application site. In addition, the appropriate county manager's office shall be notified prior to the
initial residuals land application event on any new site so that they will be aware that residuals land
application activities have commenced on the site.
15. The Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office shall be notified at least
24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event on any new land application site. Such
notification to the Regional Aquifer Protection Supervisor shall be made during normal office hours
(i.e., from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.) between Monday and Friday, but excluding State Holidays. A
list of the Division's regional offices, their county coverage, and their contact information may be
downloaded from the web site at http://www.enr.state.nc.us/html/regionaloffices.html.
III. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The residuals land application program shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times as a
non-discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of this
program.
2. The Permittee shall maintain an approved Operation and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan)pursuant to
15A NCAC 02T .1110 including operational functions, maintenance schedules, inspection plan,
sampling and monitoring plan, safety measures, and a spill response plan. The inspection portion of
the plan shall include the following information:
a. Names of personal responsible for conducting the inspections
b. Description of inspection plan describing how the frequency of inspections and location of
inspections are determined to assure that inspections are representative of the land application
program.
c. Description of record keeping requirements pursuant to permit Condition IV.9.
d. Description of required actions meeting the requirements of permit Condition IV. 11 to be taken
by the inspector in the event that noncompliance is observed during an inspection.
WQ0034195 Version 1.0 Shell Version 090204 Page 6 of 15

The sampling and monitoring portion of the plan shall include the following information:
e. Names and position of personnel responsible for conducting the sampling and monitoring;
f. Required sampling frequency specified in Attachment B of the permit;
g. Description of sampling and monitoring procedures to gather representative sampling for each
sampling period. Note that fluctuation in temperature, flow, and other operating conditions can
affect the quality of the residuals. The sampling plan must account for any foreseen fluctuations
in compost residuals quality, and indicate sampling times accordingly to ensure compliance
during the most limiting times (e.g. small facilities that apply multiple times per year, but have
an annual sampling frequency may need to sample and document compliance with the pathogen
reduction requirements during winter months when pathogen reduction is most likely to be
negatively affected by cold temperatures).
Any modification to the O&M Plan shall be approved by the Division. The most recent O&M Plan
shall be submitted to the Raleigh Regional Office and the Winston-Salem Regional Office for review
and approval.
3. In the event that the residuals land application program is not operated satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions due to improper operation and maintenance,the Permittee shall cease
land applying residuals to the site,contact the Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division
of Water Quality's (Division) regional office, and take any immediate corrective actions as may be
• required by the Division.
4. Upon classification of the residuals land application program by the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate a certified land
application/residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the program. The operator shall
hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the program by the WPCSOCC. The
Permittee shall also designate a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to-comply with the
conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0201.
5. This permit shall become voidable if the soils of the land application sites fail to assimilate the
residuals or the application causes contravention of surface water or groundwater standards and may
be revoked unless the land application sites are maintained and operated in a manner that will protect
the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and groundwater.
6. A copy of this permit shall be maintained in all manned equipment at the land application sites when
residuals are being land applied during the life of this permit. The spill prevention and control plan
shall be maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles.
7. Adequate provisions shall.be taken to prevent wind erosion and surface runoff from conveying
residuals from the land application sites onto adjacent properties or into any surface waters.
8. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land applied or
stored residuals into any surface waters.
9. No residuals shall be stored at any land application site at any time, unless written approval has first
been requested and obtained from the Division.
WQ0034195 Version 1.0 Shell Version 090204 Page 7 of 15

10. Bulk residuals shall not be applied to the land under the following conditions:
a. If the residuals are likely to adversely affect a threatened or endangered species listed under
section 4 of the Endangered Species Act or its designated critical habitat;
b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions;
c. If the land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of
surface water or groundwater standards;
d. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of
the residuals would occur;
e. Within the 100-year flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within
a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event;
f. During a measurable precipitation event (i.e., >.01" per hour) or within 24 hours following a
rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land •
application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division;
g. If the slope of the land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied,
and if the slope of the land is greater than 18 percent when bulk liquid residuals are injected or
incorporated;
h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture greater than 6.0, on land
application sites onto which residuals are applied. Residuals may be applied to the sites
provided that sufficient amounts of lime are also applied to achieve a fmal pH of the soil mixture
of at least 6.0, or if an agronomist provides information indicating that the pH of the soil,
residuals, and lime mixture is suited for the specified crop type. Any approved variations to the
acceptable soil pH (6.0) for land application will be noted in the most recently certified
Attachment B of this permit.
i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover in accordance with the crop
management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other
agronomist unless the bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the
residuals land application event or injected. (This requirement does not apply to no-till
fields);
j. If the vertical separation of the seasonal high water table and the depth of residuals application is
less than one foot;
k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less
than one foot;
11. For land onto which bulk residuals are applied that do not meet the Class A Pathogen Reduction
Requirements (15A NCAC 02T .1106(b)), the following public access restrictions apply:
a. Public access to public contact sites shall be restricted for one calendar year after any residuals
land application event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the activities
conducted at each site;
b. Public access to land that is not a public contact site shall be restricted for 30 days after any
residuals land application event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the
activities conducted at each site.

12. For land onto which bulk residuals are applied that do not meet the Class A Pathogen Reduction
Requirements(15A NCAC 02T .1106(b)),the following harvesting and grazing restrictions apply:
a. Animals shall not be allowed to graze on land application sites for 30 days after any residuals
land application event. Sites that are to be used for grazing shall have fencing that will be used
to prevent access after each event;
b. Food crops, feed crops,and fiber crops shall not be harvested for 30 days after any residuals land
application event;
c. Food crops with harvested parts that touch the residual/soil mixture and are totally above the
land surface (e.g., tobacco, melons, cucumbers, squash, etc.) shall not be harvested for 14
months after any residuals land application event;
d. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (i.e., root crops such as potatoes,

13. This permit shall become voidable unless the agreements between the Permittee and the landowners
and lessees or operators of any land application sites listed in the most recently-certified Attachment
B of this permit not owned by the Permittee are in full force and in effect. These agreements shall
be considered expired concurrent with the expiration date of the permit and shall be renewed at the
same time the permit is renewed.
14. Upon entering an agreement with landowners to apply residuals to a land application site, the
Permittee shall require of the landowner or lessee/operator a statement detailing the volume of
nutrient sources (waste residuals, manufactured fertilizers, manures, or other animal waste products)
other than the residuals to be applied by the Permittee,that have been applied to the land, and a copy
of the most recent Nutrient Management Plan (NMP), if available, for the fields within the
agreement. For the purpose of this permit condition, a Crop Management Plan (CMP),Waste
Utilization Plan (WUP) or Certified Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) shall also be
considered a Nutrient Management Plan.
The NMPs must be provided only for those operations where a NMP is required by the US
Department of Agriculture — National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) or other State
Agencies. The Permittee shall rely on the provided information to calculate appropriate reductions
in allowable nutrient loading rates. If the calculation shows that the agronomic rates in the NMP
(including PAN) have already been met or exceeded on a field, no additional residuals shall be land
applied to that field.

monitoring is required), then no sampling data is required during the period of inactivity. The
Permittee shall submit an annual report, as required in condition IV. 10., even in the event that no
land application events occur during an entire year. The annual report shall include an explanation
for missing sampling data.
Only residuals that are generated by the source-generating facilities that are identified as being
exempt from this condition in the most recently-certified Attachment A of this permit shall not be
required to comply with this monitoring requirement.
The TCLP analysis shall include the following parameters (i.e., note the regulatory level in
milligrams per liter in parentheses):

If residuals generated by a particular residuals source-generating facility are insufficient to require a
land application event during a required sampling period as specified in the most recently-certified
Attachment A of this permit, the Permittee shall make up the missed sampling either by taking
additional samples during land application events previous to a planned period of inactivity, or by
taking additional samples during land application events immediately following the period of
inactivity. If no land application events occur during a complete calendar year, the Permittee need
not make up the missed sampling events for that year. The Permittee shall submit an annual report,
as required in Condition IV. 10., even in the event that no land application events occur during an
entire year. The annual report shall include an explanation of additional sampling data intended to
compensate for periods of inactivity, or an explanation for missing sampling data.
After the residuals generated by a particular residuals source-generating facility have been monitored
for two years at the frequency specified in the most recently-certified Attachment A of this permit,
the Permittee may submit a request to the Division for a permit modification to reduce the frequency
of this monitoring requirement. The request must include notification from EPA that a reduced
sampling frequency has been approved as required by 40 CFR 503.16(a)(2). In no case, however,
shall the frequency of this monitoring be less than once per year when a residuals land application
event occurs during that year.

Attachment A of this permit shall be monitored for compliance with Condition II. 6. The monitoring
shall be performed at the frequency specified in the most recently-certified Attachment A of this
permit, and data to verify pathogen and vector attraction reduction of the residuals shall be
maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. The required data shall be specific
to the stabilization process utilized, but also shall be sufficient to demonstrate clear compliance with
the Class A pathogen reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106 (a) and (b) or the Class B
pathogen reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106 (a) and (c), and one vector attraction
reduction requirement in 15A NCAC 02T .1107 (a) shall be met. In addition, the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) certification statements concerning compliance with pathogen reduction
requirements, vector attraction reduction requirements, and management practices shall be
completed at the frequency specified in the most recently-certified Attachment A of this permit by
the proper authority or authorities, if more than one is involved (i.e., either the person who prepares
the residuals, the person who derives the material, or the person who applies the residuals). Only
residuals that are generated by the residuals source-generating facilities that are identified as being
exempt from Condition II. 6. in the most recently-certified Attachment A of this permit shall not be
required to comply with this monitoring requirement.
5. A representative annual soils analysis (i.e., Standard Soil Fertility Analysis) shall be conducted on
each land application site on which a residuals land application event in the respective calendar year
has occurred or is to occur, and the results shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a
minimum of five years. The Standard Soil Fertility Analysis shall include, but is not necessarily
limited to,the following parameters:

Anonymous caller alleged that Synagro was land applying Highway 119 N.,Right Cunningham Road,Field is on Left.
residuals with excessive amounts of plastics in it to hay fields in
Caswell County.The caller claimed that the residuals were being
applied to hay fields on Mr.Bill Barkers farm.
Action Taken: Comments:
- Called Synagro to verify application activity. On Thursday July 29,2010 at approximately 9:45 am,DWQ staff person
- Met Synagro at site to investigate. Patrick Mitchell met with Synagro representative Mr.Marshall Puryear,as
- Incident in Person County,entered incident and notified RRO. a result of a complaint received on July 23,2010.The residuals being
land applied were generated by the City of Danville WWTP,located in
Danville,Virginia,and land applied to the sites under DWQ permit:
WQ0034195,issued to Synagro.Site visits were made to a total of four
(4)application field locations,all owned by Mr.Sidney Thompson in
western Person County.Mr.Bill Barker apparently is a neighboring
farmer that has not received any residual application to his hay fields.
The first application field visited was PS-1-field 4.This field is located on
Cunningham Road in Person County.According to Synagro,cake
residuals from Danville VWVTP had been applied to the hay field the
previous week.Synagro indicated that this was the only field that had
received an application of the cake residuals.At the time of the site
visit there appeared to be approximately 2 to 4%,by volume,plastics
mixed into the residuals.The majority of the plastics appeared to be
lagoon liner.Some other plastics(feminine products,straws,etc.)were
included in the residuals,but at a much smaller concentration.Synagro
indicated that the original concentration of plastics was higher and some
cleanup to the site had already been completed the previous week.
Synagro indicated that Danville WWTP was aware of the plastics and
much of the plastic was lagoon liner disturbed during a WWTP lagoon
cleanout for a lagoon closure.The observed buffers appeared to be
adequate.No signs of ponding or run-off were observed and there was
good cover vegetation.
Three(3)other application fields(one located on Black Wolfe Road,one
on Barker Road,and one on Cunningham Road)were also visited.All
three fields were in Person County.Synagro indicated that liquid
residuals from Danville WWTP had been applied to all three of these
fields.At the time of the site visit there were no plastics observed in any
of these three fields.Buffers appeared to be adequate.No signs of
ponding or run-off were observed and there was good cover vegetation.
Synagro did indicate that there would likely be more cake residuals
from Danville WVVTP land applied next week(August 2nd 6th)and that
the residuals would likely contain a similar plastic content as the previous
applications.The land owner(Sidney Thompson)met with us prior to
leaving the site.Synagro had a plastic cleanup agreement form for the
landowner to sign.Synagro indicated that this form stated that Danville
WWTP would be responsible for cleanup of any plastics included in the
residuals applied,if the land owner would allow them to apply the
residuals.Synagro indicated that Danville had contracted with a
landscaping company for cleanup of any plastics included in the
residuals. PLM
