Applicant Address: 940 Washburn Switch Road, Shelby, NC Facility Address: 940 Washburn Switch Road, Shelby, NC Permitted Flow 1.3 MCD Type of Waste: 95% Industrial, 5% Domestic Facility/Permit Status: Existing renewal without expansion County: Cleveland Characteristics Receiving Stream Brushy Creek (001) and Overflow Branch (002) Stream Classification C Subbasin 03-08-04 Drainage Area (mi2): 15.1 Summer 7Q10 (cfs) 4.0 Winter 7Q10 (cfs): 7.6 Average Flow (cfs): 21.0 IWC (%) @ 3.0 MCD: 33 Regional Office: Moorseville USCS Topo Quad: F12SE Permit Writer: Mark McIntire Date July 20, 1998 Background PPG Industries, Inc. operates a fiberglass fiber manufacturing facility in Shelby, NC. The Shelby plant currently concentrates the bulk of its fiberglass manufacturing on the reinforced plastics market. Manufacturing begins with glass raw materials including limestone, silica, boron, clay and fluorspar. These raw materials are blended in powder form and added to melt furnaces. The batch melt furnaces, operating at 2800°F, transform the batch into molten glass. The molten glass is then drawn from the furnaces through electrically heated platinum bushings into continuous fibers. These fibers are gathered into strands and either spooled or chopped into specified lengths. Water sprays cool the glass and keep strand contact points clean during the winding process. A "binder", which is water based, is applied to the individual fibers as they are drawn from the furnaces before being gathered into strands. The binder is a proprietary mixture of resins, film formers, lubricants, surfactants and coupling . Y agents emulsified in a water base. The majority of the wastewater treated by the treatment plant is spray water, lost binder and cleaning water. Additional wastewater is received from Azdel, Inc. Azdel is a PPG joint venture with GE and produces a fiber glass reinforced polypropylene sheet material that is sold to molders. This is considered a plastics laminating process and is cover under 40 CFR 463. The manufacturing process is dry, so that the wastewater sent to PPG is either cooling water, cleaning water or domestic wastewater. Therefore, no allocation based on 463 is proposed. Wasteload Allocation Summary This permit was first issued on May 31, 1978. The permit was summarily adjudicated. It is not entirely evident why the permit was adjudicated, however a review of historical files seems to indicate that the adjudication was filed because of a disagreement with limit development. At issuance, final effluent limitations were based on 40 CFR 410.32, Subpart C: Textile Dry Processing. While the permit was being adjudicated, interim limits were established based on the results of a field calibrated water quality model. Upon resolution of the adjudication (it was determined that textile guidelines did not apply to PPG's discharge), the permit was reissued in August of 1979 with water -quality limitations based on the results of the model. This original series of wasteload allocations was based on a discharge flow of 0.875 MGD. The permit was renewed in 1985 with a change in allocation, however the reason for the change is not evidenced in the files. In 1988, Jackie Nowell completed a wasteload allocation for this facility at an expanded flow of 1.3 MGD. The increase in flow was based on process modifications in the manufacturing facility. Jackie evaluated PPG's discharge with a level B model and developed appropriate water quality -based limitations for BOD5 and NH,,-N. The current effluent limitations for BOD5 and NHs-N are based on the level B model run in 1988, while the current TSS limits are BPJ, apparently based on the BOD,5 limits developed as resolution to the 1978/79 adjudication. Extensive research was conducted to determine if any federal guidelines exist for such a manufacturing operation. Lacy Ballard of PPG was contacted for a detailed description of the manufacturing process and associated end products. Don Anderson and Hugh Wise were contacted at EPA in D.C. regarding the applicability of textile and glass guidelines. After my conversations with both, I determined that neither set of guidelines applies to PPG's process. As stated earlier, PPG does accept wastewater from Azdel, Inc. Azdel's operation falls under the authority of 40 CFR 463, Plastics Laminating. However, manufacturing at Azdel is a dry process. Azdel's wastewater is largely cooling water, cleaning water and domestic wastewater. Therefore, guidelines do not apply to this aspect of PPG's effluent either. kff PPG operates two outfalls, 001 and 002. Outfall 001 Outfall 001 is the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant and receives the following kinds of wastewater: • Sanitary • Research • Boilers • Miscellaneous • Forming • Fabrication • Coating • Process WW • Storm drains/garage pads • Azdel, Inc. WW Outfall 002 Outfall 002 is a non -contact cooling water outfall and is permitted in accordance with the general permit for non -contact cooling water. Compliance Summary A review of DMR data has indicated that compliance with permit conditions is excellent, with the exception of chronic toxicity. This facility effectively removes cBOD and nitrifies extremely well. It appears that PPG's effluent is contributing to instream conductivity, though downstream values rarely exceed 100 µmhos/cm. Toxicity Type of Toxicity Test: Chronic (Ceriodaphnia) P/F Existing Limit: 33% Chronic P/F Recommended Limit: 33% Chronic P/F Monitoring Schedule: January, April, July, October This facility has had a history of toxicity failures. In 1996, PPG completed a toxicity evaluation report. It seems evident that toxicity is source related. The facility feels confident that toxicity is the result of binder usage. Lacy Ballard of PPG has indicated that as many as 10-15 binders are in use at any given time, each made up of a host of ingredients. PPG found that the.addition of bentonite clay into the aeration system solved, their toxicity problems. PPG received authorization to construct bentonite addition facilities on January 13, 1998. They are currently adding about 500 lb/day and are experiencing no toxicity problems. Summary and Recommendations As effluent guidelines do not exist for this manufacturing process, and since water quality modeling has been conducted to determine the effect of this discharge on the receiving stream, I propose renewal with existing limits for BOD,5, NH,3-N, TSS, and Oil `dQ Crease. Reasonable potential analyses have been conducted for toxicants and provide the following results: Lead: NL, monitoring 2/Month Fluoride: 5.4 mg/L, monitoring Weekly - Zinc: NL, monitoring 2/Month Copper: NL, monitoring 2/Month Special Conditions There are three special conditions. A(3) is the chronic toxicity special condition. A(4) is a biocide condition for outfall 002, non -contact cooling water. A(5) is a disinfection condition requiring such should violations of North Carolina's fecal coliform standard occur. Instream Monitorina Requirements PPG currently monitors dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, temperature and conductivity instream. This renewal recommends maintaining instream monitoring.

The primary sludge is the result of clarification using lime, aluminum chloride, polymers and coagulants to achieve floc formation and settling. The secondary sludge is waste activated sludge from the biological treatment system. The secondary sludge also containes bentonite clay and a small amount of ferric chloride. Both sludges are combined in a sludge thickener/storage tank prior to dewatering. Polymer addition and mechanical mixing, along with dilution water, is required to prepare the sludge for the belt press. The sludge is then pumped to a belt press for dewatering. The belt press has both a gravity drain section and a pressure section where the water is removed. Typically, the solids are increased from 4-5% as it leaves the storage tank, to 25 to 30% solids discharged from the belt press. The dewatered sludge is transported by screw conveyors to a roll -off box which is handled by a local hauling and waste disposal contractor. Dewatered sludge is disposed of, off -site, at a private landfill owned by Cleveland Container Service (JM Landfill). The sludge is incorporated into the cover dirt. As an alternative disposal method, the Shelby plant has acreage permitted for land application of sludge (Permit No. WQ0001055) but has elected not to use this option. AM M'ML Lu PPG Industries, Inc.

The effluent concentration defined as the Instream Waste Concentration (IWC) shall be 33%.- The test concentrations for this test series will be 8.25%, 16.5%, 33%, 49.5%, and 66 % (Test concentrations may be modified only upon approval by the Division) . The chronic value will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does not have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The presence of 48 hour acute toxicity will be determined using Fisher's Exact Test at 48 hours from test initiation. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are described by the document referenced above. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using these procedures to establish compliance with the SOC condition. The tests will be performed during the months of January, April, July, and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of the SOC condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter code THP3B for the Chronic Value and TGA3B for the 48 hour Acute Toxicity measure (Pass/Fail) . Additionally, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Water Quality 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27607 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form.. The report shall be submitted,to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a valid test is submitted. Upon submission of a valid test, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the -months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, then the NPDES Permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits . NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed on later than the last day of the month following the month of the initial monitoring. / '.C.

North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality 919 North Main Street Mooresville, NC 28115 Subject: Quarterly Progress Report Special Order by Consent EMC WQ No. 96-24 PPG Industries NPDES Permit No. NC0004685 Cleveland County, NC Dear Mr. Gleason: PPG Industries, Inc., located in Shelby, North Carolina (PPG -Shelby) entered into a Special Order by Consent (SOC) with the State of North Carolina on March 11, 1997. This report is to satisfy the requirements of Item 2.d. of the SOC which requires that PPG -Shelby submit a Quarterly Progress Report by the 15th day of July 1998. PPG - Shelby has complied with the time schedule of the activities listed in the SOC (Activities 2 (c) 1-5). We have achieved compliance with the effluent limitations in accordance with the June 30, 1998 deadline (Activity 2(c)5) and have complied with all of the requirements of the of the SOC. As required in Activity 2(f), we are submitting a written notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) that we have achieved compliance with Activity 2(c)5. As indicated in the previous progress reports, we have permanently installed the bentonite clay feed system and are continuing to operate it for toxicity removal. Prior to the June 30, 1998 compliance deadline, optimization of the clay dosage was performed in order to achieve consistent compliance with toxicity limits. This optimization program included the performance of monthly toxicity screening tests in addition to the quarterly testing required in the SOC. Table 1 presents a summary of all of the effluent toxicity testing performed from 1997 to date. As indicated in Table 1, the full range bioassay test performed the week of April 13 did not meet the target NOEC of 33 %. Bioassay testing was repeated the week of April 27 and the effluent passed with an NOEC of 33 %. During April 1998 the clay was being fed at a dosage of 285 lb/day. Based on the April test failure it was determined that the 285 lb/day clay dosage may not be adequate to achieve consistent compliance with the toxicity limits. Therefore, the clay dosage was increased to 500 lb/day in May 1998. The May and June toxicity screening tests passed with sample reproductions of 99 and 98 %, respectively, of the control reproduction. Based on our operating experience with this system, we feel that we have implemented a system which will meet the chronic toxicity limits: We are performing full range chronic bioassay monitoring in July 1998 to satisfy the quarterly monitoring requirements in the SOC. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at (704) 434-2261 Ext. 544. Sincerely, Lacy Ballard Staff Engineer Attachments cc: J.T.

The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is _33 % (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to .establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of _JANAPR JUL OCT Effluent sampling -for this testing shall be performed at. the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge . Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, N.C. 27607 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed.. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event).

CET-2Wi 9 A Recent changes in discharge regulations have forced municipalities and industries to reassess wastewater treatment methods. Many systems currently in use are unable to meet the increasingly stringent discharge requirements. The addition of Accofloc to current treatment chemistries may be the only adjustment necessary to meet the changing regulations. Problem Many municipal and industrial wastewater treatment systems are based on the generation of large floc particles which either float to be skimmed off the surface of the water or settle to concentrate in the bottom of the tank. The desired result is not always attained and this can lead to major problems for the operator. These problems may include: • small colloidal floc that will not float or sink • high turbidity in the water • poor dewatering' Solution These problems can normally be corrected with the addition of Accofloc° to the wastewater along with the polymer currently being used. Accofloc added to the wastewater will achieve the following results: • increased floc size • increased floc weight • reduced settling time • increased clarity • removal of trace metals from wastewater • increased filterability of floc i Easy to Use Accofloc particle structure. Accofloc in hydrated form. The Accofloc products are high swelling pure sodium bentonite clays found only in the Black Hills region of the western United States. The Accofloc clays are selected for their unique ion exchange capability. This capability allows Accofloc to increase clarity and remove trace metals from wastewater. Accofloc is NSF approved for use in potable water applications. Accofloc is normally premixed with tap water to a 5% by weight slurry. Accofloc is never added directly to a wastewater stream in the dry form. After approximately two hours of hydration time, the slurry can be added to the wastewater treatment -mix tank at a rate of: 200 to 500 ppm. It is important to note that Accofloc will normally not floc on its own.' In order to create a floc, Accofloc mus.t.be used in conjunction with polyelectrolytes or inorganic flocculating salts. Accofloc is Offered in Two Forms • Accofloc 350 Accofloc SDG Accofloc 350 is a high quality powder sodium bentonite clay chosen especially for its flocculation characteristics. Accofloc SDG consists of uniformly sized granules that have been produced from high quality ground, selectively mined sodium bentonite clay. 0 E d N V O I I % Solids Removal Accofloc and Polymer vs. Polymer Alone Increasing Dosage Rate (ppm) Dewatering Efficiency Accofloc and Polymer vs. Polymer Alone Increasing Dosage Rate (ppm) Other CETCO Wastewater/ Water Treatment Products If the wastewater problem is too great for Accofloc, CETCO offers additional products for treating wastewater/water. RM-10" RM-10 custom blended flocculent formulas are used for hard to treat wastewaters. Nine standard formulas are available which effectively break emulsified oils and remove heavy metals from various wastewaters. CETCO also offers a complete line of wastewater treatment equipment to handle batch or continuous wastewater flows. CLARION® Clarion absorption media and columns remove oils and low soluble organic contaminants from wastewater. In many situations Clarion can be used En conjunction with or replace granular activated carbon. CETCO also designs and manufactures various column systems to handle a variety of waste treatment needs and flows. SORBOND® Sorbond waste stabilization/solidification agents are a unique blend of natural minerals and inorganic chemicals that solidify and stabilize heavy metal and organic sludges into a non - leachable solid that will not re -liquify. Sorbond offers less total volume increase compared to flyash, portland cement or other typical additives. Custom blended formulas are available for site specific applications.

A review of the permit file has indicated that errors were inadvertently made in the permit regarding the whole effluent toxicity testing requirement. Accordingly, we are forwarding herewith modifications to the subject permit to correct the errors. These modifications consist exclusively of corrections to Part III, Condition E of the permit and include deletion of the phrase "in any two consecutive toxicity tests" in the first paragraph, replacement of the word "issuance" with "effective" where the requirements for performing the first test are contained in the third paragraph, and corrections to the mailing address to which DEM Form AT-1 should be mailed. Please find enclosed an amended page containing Part III, Conditions E, F, and G which should be inserted into your permit. The old page should be discarded. All other terms and conditions contained in the original permit remain unchanged and in full effect. These permit modifications are issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statutes 143- 215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency. If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this letter. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, Post Office Drawer 27447, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7447. Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity using test procedures outlined in: 1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 33% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from the effective date of this permit during the months of January, April, July, and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management - 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, N.C. 27607 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified"innthe cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting(within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. F. The permittee shall not use any biocides except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in cooling systems which may be toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Environmental Management. Such notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map locating the discharge point and receiving stream. G. In the event that violations of the fecal coliform requirements of the North Carolina water quality standards occur as a result of this discharge, disinfection will immediately be required and the permit amended to establish a coliform effluent limitation. --' ".

Part III Permit No. NCO004685 E. CHRONIC TOXICITY PASS/FAIL PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit chronic toxicity in any two consecutive toxic ry �% using test procedures outlined in: 1.) The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 33% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance � with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days fro issu�rce'of this permit during the months of January, April, July and October. Effluent sampling r is testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be. entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management P.O. Box 27687 Raleigh, N.C. 27611 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be. reopened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting (within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. F. The permittee shall not use any biocides except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in cooling systems which may be toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Environmental Management. Such notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map locating the discharge point and receiving stream. G: In the event that violations of the fecal coliform requirements of the North Carolina water quality standards occur as a result of this discharge, disinfection will immediately be required and the permit amended to establish a colifonn effluent limitation.

The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 33% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first test will be performed after thirty days from issuance of this permit during the months of January, April, July and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management P.O. Box 27687 Raleigh, N.C. 27611 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be reopened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting (within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. F. The permittee shall not use any biocides except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in cooling systems which may be toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Environmental Management.

Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended. 33 USC 1251, et. seq. it. The "month]%- average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured du ins such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests a ere reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the permit. . b. The "v► ee1Jy average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during the calendar week (Sunday - Sarurday) on wNch daily discharges arc sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the %%eights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the permit. e. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily l+iaxlmum," in Past I of the permit. d. The. "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or rr�e .ured during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and memsured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled andlor measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found cash day of the }'earand then dividing this sum by the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Pan I of the permit. 6. ['or crnt.Vati Rn Measurement a. The "avenge monthly concentration." other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled, and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such month (arithmetic Mean of the duly concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic meL (weighted by flow e monthl value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The averagy count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits' in Put 1 of the permit. b. The *Average weekly concertration," other than for fecal coliform bacteriam is the sum of the • concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or treasured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled undlor measured during such week (arithmetic Mean of the daily concentration values). The dilly concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by low value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This limitation is identified as oWeekly Average" under "Other Limits" in Pa.Z I of the permit. c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of Fallutani calculated from it is the "!Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as 'Dail) Mavmum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. d. The "avenge arasual concentration." other than for fecCcoliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the concentration of a composite sample or in the cue of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average yearly count for fecal coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar )-car. This limitation is identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit. e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of dissol� ed oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily 1,erage" in the text of Part f. The "quan,erly average concentration" is the average of all samples ta3:en over a calendar quarter. It is identified as "Queerly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit. g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through June, July through September, and October through December. • R ..S 7. ether M9auuaments •.,, .j a. Flow. (*iGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average now. averaged monthly. It is determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month. b. An 'instantaneous flow measurement- is a measure of flow taken st the time of sampling, when both the sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge. c. A "continuous flow- measurement' is a measure of discharge flow from the facilit?. %%.hich occurs continually without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. flow shall be monitored continually except for the infrequent times when there may be no now or for infrequent maintenance activities on the flow de%zce. S. I.%=t of Sgnples a. Coma osite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of: eriod of (1) discharge eries land combrab ined proportional les collected at to the rite of flow measured aual time intervals over a 24 tthetime of individual sample collection, of (2 ) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period %ith the time intervals between samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sa.—,rline. point. Flow measurement between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow• recorder and totalizer, and the present gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than U24 of the expected total daily flow at the treatment system. or (3) a single, continuous sample collected over a 24 hour period proportional to the rate of flow. In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab .samples shall be no greater than once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour except at wastewater treatment systems having a detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases, effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24 hour period which are equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case may the time interval betK ten effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours not the number of samples less than four (4) during a 24 hour sampling period. b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes; the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the receiving waters. 9. Sze: ulat i on of Means a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided by the number of individual values. b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual values where ' is equal to the number of individual values. The geometric rr,ean is equivalent to the antilog of the arithmetic mean of the logarithms of the individual •, values. Fot purposes of calculating the geometric mean, values of zero (0) shall be c0:-s;6,jr:;ed to be one 0). c. Weighted by Flow Value: %%,Cighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows. 10. cafe,,,,.. f=- D_ay A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one dayy until midnight of the next day.

Definitions Oi "Bypass" means the known diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment fa:ility including the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility. (2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and - per�:nent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the a' sence of a by-pass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. b. Bypass not exceeding limitations. The perittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Paragraphs c. and d. of this section. C. Notice (1) Anticipated bypass: If the perminee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the bypass; including an evaluation of the anticipated quality and affect of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part I1, E. 6. of this permit..(24 hour notice). d. Prohibition of Bypass (!) By-pass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a per=nee for bypass, unless: (A) By-pass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage; (B) There w ere no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use ,f auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup i . equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance: and (C) The permittee submitted notices as required under Paragrapb c* of this section. (2) The Permit Issuing Authority may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering iu adverse affects, if the Permit Issuing Authority determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in Paragraph d. p) of this section. s. lsscl� a. Definition. ol:pset " means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and tempacte s m liance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of f tnonco p g beyond the reasonable control of the perrrittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, Iack of pre%.cnti%.e maintenance, or careless or.improper operation. b. Effect of an upset. An upset ccrtstitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance With such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition are met. 1\o determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by. upset. and before an action for noncompliance, is final ajrnjnistrati%-e action subject to judicial re%iew.

The North Carolina Ceriodaphnia chronic effluent bioassay procedure (North Carolina Chronic Bioassay Procedure - Revised *September 1989) or subsequent versions. The effluent concentration at which there may be no observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality is 33% (defined as treatment two in the North Carolina.procedure document). The permit holder shall perform quarterly monitoring using this procedure to establish compliance with the permit condition. The first.test will be performed after thirty days from issuance of this permit during the months of January, April, July and October. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the month in which it was performed, using the parameter code TGP3B. Additionally, DEM Form AT-1 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: Environmental Sciences Branch North Carolina Division of Environmental Management P.O. Box 27687 Raleigh, N.C. 27611 Test data shall be complete and accurate and include all supporting chemical/physical measurements performed in association with the toxicity tests, as well as all dose/response data. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should any single quarterly monitoring indicate a failure to meet specified limits, then monthly monitoring will begin immediately until such time that a single test is passed. Upon passing, this monthly test requirement will revert to quarterly in the months specified above. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be reopened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. . NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism survival and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an invalid test and will require immediate retesting (within 30 days of initial monitoring event). Failure to submit suitable test results will constitute noncompliance with monitoring requirements. E. The permittee shall conduct a test for pollutants annually at the effluent from the treatment plant. The discharge shall be evaluated as follows: 1) A pollutant analysis of the effluent must be completed annually using EPA approved methods for the following analytic fractions: (a) purgeables (i.e., volatile organic compounds); (b) acid extractables; (c) base/neutral extractables; (d) organochlorine pesticides and. PCB's (e) herbicides; and (f) metals and other inorganics. The Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring (APAM) Requirement Reporting Form A and accompanying memo, to. be provided to all discharges affected by this monitoring requirement, describes the sampling and analysis requirements and lists chemicals to be included in the pollutant analysis. This monitoring requirement is to be referred to as the "Annual Pollutant Analysis Monitoring Requirement" (APAM). 2) Other significant levels of organic chemicals must be identified and approximately quantified. For the purpose of implementing this requirement, the largest 10 GC/MS peaks in the purgeable, _base/neutral extractable, -and -acid extractable fractions (or fewer than 10, if less than 10 'unidentified peaks occur) for chemicals other than those specified on the APA Requirement _: Reporting Form A should be identified and approximately quantified as stated in the APAM Reporting Form A instructions. This part (item 2) of the APAM requirement is to be referred to as the "10 significant peaks rule". F. The permittee shall not use any biocides except those approved in conjunction with the permit application. The permittee shall notify the Director in writing not later than ninety (90) days prior to instituting use of any additional biocide used in cooling systems which may be toxic to aquatic life other than those previously reported to the Division of Environmental Management. Such notification shall include completion of Biocide Worksheet Form 101 and a map locating the discharge point and receiving stream. G. In the event that violations of the fecal coliform requirements of the North Carolina water quality standards occur as a result of this discharge, disinfection will immediately be required and the permit amended to establish a coliform effluent limitation.

COMPOSTING 9 THERMAL DRYING AND PELLETIZING w 0 V T V w Z O C w c INTERNATIONAL PROCESS SYSTEMS METHOD OF OPERATION A. Introduction This Operations Plan contains detailed operational procedures designed to comply with applicable regulations and guidelines. Additional procedures and constraints have been incorporated based on Bio Gro's previous land application experience with the ultimate objective being a land application program that safeguards public health, surface and groundwater supplies and provides an agronomic benefit to the project area. B. General Description of Project Initially, Bio Gro proposes to land -apply cake biosolids from the PPG Shelby Wastewater Treatment Plant operated by PPG Industries. Current production will be handled as a cake of approximately 18 % solids. Cake sludge will be loaded at the treatment plants and then transported as a cake material in dump trailers to permitted agricultural land application sites. Bio Gro will land -apply sludge on approved sites in accordance with the operational procedures "and rates established in the permit. Application sites will be rotated so as not to adversely impact local community transportation systems. C. Land Application Procedures Sludge Removal, Transport and Application - Cake Sludge The cake sludge will be transported from the wastewater treatment facility in dump trailers equipped with spill guards, full mud flaps and sealed tailgates to approved land -application sites. The sludge will be deposited on the field, loaded into cake spreaders with a high flotation front-end loader and then distributed on the field from the spreader. The cake spreader will either be a type which can be pulled behind a farm tractor or the box will be mounted on the frame of a high flotation land application vehicle. Acceptable locations for sludge unloading or staging areas are determined case -by -case by the project/field manager or his designee. Consideration is given to the following factors: - elevation to avoid low spots, lack of slope, distance the application vehicle must travel to apply the sludge, and availability of truck access. In all cases, staging areas are selected so as to allow coverage of the field from one field border and proceeding to the opposite border so as to prevent "painting oneself into a comer." This method allows total coverage of the field such that the unloading vehicles will not drive through areas where sludge has been applied. The mode of application will be surface application with the sludge being incorporated by discing within 48 hours after the sludge is applied. Discing will not occur on pasture and hay fields and on cropped field where the farmer has adequate crop residue and wants to maintain a no -till or minimum tillage system. Sludge distribution on the land application sites will be uniform throughout the permitted 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. A summary of equipment to be employed on the project is as follows: a. Four to six tractor/dump trailer units. The number will vary depending on travel time to land application sites. b. Two rubber tired front-end loaders. c. One to two cake spreaders with 10-14 wet tons' capacity. The number will vary depending on the configuration of the land application sites as it affects application time with efficiency. The cake spreader boxes will either be a type which can be pulled behind a farm tractor or the box will be mounted on the frame of a high flotation land application vehicle. d. A tractor and disc assembly, is to be used for sludge incorporation. Operations will be discontinued when soils are saturated and will not be resumed until sufficient drying of the field has occurred. The truck units will be inspected; licensed and appropriately marked as required for the purpose of transporting the sludge material. To prevent adherence of the sludge to the transport vehicle, the dump trailers will be equipped with full rear mud flaps. This will preclude the sludge from adhering to the tires and undercarriage of the transport vehicle, thereby minimizing the possibility of sludge being tracked onto roadways. Sludge adhering to the mud flap will be scraped off in the field before the truck proceeds back to the roadway. 2. Sludge Removal. Transport. and Application - Liquid Sludge Bio Oro plans to gravity load trucks from the digester tanks through a ten inch line feeding the drying beds. A loading tower will be constructed as the drying beds to top load the tankers. This method will be used as long as the sludge will flow from the tanks, when the flow stops, it will be pumped. Liquid sludge will be removed from the digesters by pumping a Flygt Model CS-3151, six inch (6") submersible pump. The pump will be suspended from a metal "A" frame secured to the top of the digester. Water will be added as necessary through the use of a high pressure hose, to liquefy the sludge and move it to the pump. The Flygt pump requires three-phase electrical current which will be obtained through the public utility, or, if necessary, an on -site generator. The sludge will be pumped from the digesters through six-inch flexible wall hose to a wooden or steel loading tower. The flexible wall hose will be connected to rigid PVC pipe at the loading tower. A remote control switch will be located at the top of the loading tower to control the power source to the pump in the digester. The tractor/tank trailer units will pull under the loading tower with the tank trailer being filled through a hatch located on top of the trailer. Sludge will be transported from the digesters in tractor/tank trailer units to approved land application sites. The transport will deliver the sludge to high -flotation land application vehicles stationed on the field receiving sludge. The sludge transfer will be through a suction hose and the land application vehicle will perform all sludge distribution. Sludge distribution on the sites will be uniform throughout the distribution area. The mode of application will be subsurface injection or surface application followed by incorporation by discing. Injection and incorporation will not occur on pasture and hay fields and on cropped fields where the farmer has adequate crop residue and wants to maintain a no -till or minimum tillage system. 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 whatever flow rate is desired to achieve, specific application rates. A summary of equipment to be employed on the project is as. follows: a) Totally enclosed, watertight tanker trucks of 6000-6500 gallon .capacity. b) High flotation land application vehicles of 2,000 to 4,000 gallon capacity. c) A tractor and disc assembly for sludge incorporation. Operations will be discontinued during periods of inclement weather and will not be resumed until sufficient drying of the fields has occurred. The truck units will be inspected, licensed and appropriately marked as required for the purposes of transporting the sludge material. 3. Site Operation a. The principal method of application will be: cake sludge - surface application with the sludge being incorporated by discing, liquid sludge - injection. Discing and injection will not occur on pasture and hay fields and on cropped fields where the farmer has adequate crop residue and wants to maintain a no -till or minimum tillage system. b. The amount of sludge applied will be limited to the annual allowable dry tons per acre as required by the permit for the site. 4. The following buffer zones shall be maintained: a. 400 feet from residences under separate ownership for surface application method, b. 200 feet from residences under separate ownership for injection method, C. 100 feet from "SA and SB" classified waters and public surface water supplies for both methods, d. 50 feet from "WS" classified waters and other streams, creeks, lakes, rivers, and surface water drainage ways for injection method, e. 100 feet from "WS" classified waters and other streams, creeks, lakes, rivers and surface water drainage ways for surface application method, f. 50 feet from property lines for both methods, g. 50 feet from public right of ways for surface application method, h. 10 feet from upslope interceptor drains and surface water diversions for both methods, i. 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater drainage systems and surface drainage ditches for both methods, j. Buffer zones will be flagged and no sludge will be applied within the buffer zones. The most restrictive buffer will apply in combined situations. k. Operational Provisions will be taken to prevent soil loss through erosion. Provisions will include contour application and avoidance of areas where surface drainage patters result in concentrated flow of runoff from rainfall. 1. Seasonably wet areas are of concern only during very brief periods of the year with abnormally high precipitation, usually during the months of December through March. In the unlikely event that such seasonal ponding does occur when Bio Gro would normally be applying sludge, these areas will be buffered by flagging. In addition, good agronomic practice requires that areas which are unseasonably wet and would produce rutting or damage to the field will .not be utilized for sludge application operations during those periods. M. The amount of sludge 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. n. Operations will be discontinued when soils are saturated and will not be resumed until sufficient drying of the field has occurred. o. Sludge may be applied on frozen ground that has crop residue sufficient to prevent surface runoff. During such application, the maximum slope to which sludge will be applied will be five percent. P. A minimum of 36 inches of soil will be maintained between the deepest point of sludge injection and bedrock or the highest elevation of seasonal high water table condition during the -period of application. q. Soil pH should be adjusted to 6.5 or higher at the time of application. r. Crops for direct human consumption with the harvested edible portion in contact with .the sludge -amended soil shall not be planted for a period of 18 months following the last application (as defined in The U.S. EPA's 1979 regulations on land applications 40 CFR 257.3-6). S. Public access to sites which have had sludge applied will be controlled for a period of 12 months from the time of the last sludge application. t. Sludge shall not be applied on areas exceeding 18 percent slope for injection or surface application with incorporation and 10 percent for surface application without incorporation. U. All grazing by animals whose products are consumed by humans must be prevented for one month following the last application event. Any hay or forage harvested during this same time period will not be fed to these animals for one month following the sludge application event. D. Project Control 1. Management To ensure sludge is continuously applied at the correct application rate and in a manner consistent with the Operations Plan, a Bio Gro project/field manager will be in direct charge of the field operations, controlling the amount of sludge delivered to each field, and conducting daily field inspections. Field inspections will include: a. Flagging of buffers prior to application. b. Control of the amount of sludge delivered to each field. C. Formal field inspection each operating day. The field inspection shall include ensuring that: flags are in place, sludge is applied uniformly at the designated application rate, setbacks are observed, trucks are unloading at best location, trucks are not driving over sludge, trucks are cleaned before leaving the field and the land application equipment is maintained in working condition. 2. Spill Prevention and Control In the unlikely event of a spill, Bio Gro will take the following action immediately. a. 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. b. Contain Spill. In the event large quantities of sludge have been spilled, straw bales will be used where available to either form a barrier or soak -up sludge. C. Clean -Up. Depending on the type and amount of sludge spilled, a variety of equipment may be used to remove the sludge: front- end loader, shovels and brooms and vacuum equipment of a liquid sludge applicator. Any sludge removed from the spill site will be spread on an approved application site. d. 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. e. Management of Clean -Up Efforts. The project manager will take immediate charge and initiate clean-up activities. Bio Gro labor will be used, with additional labor secured as needed. The project manager will also communicate with the public on the scene, answering questions and advising of clean-up activities. f. Reporting. All spills will be reported immediately to: Regional Supervisor Water Quality Section North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources 911 North Main Street Mooresville, NC 28115 (704) 663-1699 office, a written report detailing how the spill occurred and remedial action taken. g. Spill Prevention. Project manager will take the following steps: 1) \ Ensure truck drivers watch trailer while loading and do not overload. 2) Ensure trailer hatches are closed and latched while transporting. 3) Inspect trailer seals daily and replace as necessary. 4) Ensure unloading operations in the field are conducted to minimize any potential runoff or tracking. 3. Safety Careful attention to safe working conditions and methods of operation (e.g. the proper method of lifting heavy objects and the operation of heavy equipment only by trained and competent operators) should preclude most of the potential for safety hazards in the land application operation. Should an accident occur, the project manager will be informed immediately and will thoroughly investigate and complete an accident report, including the workman's compensation and liability forms. He will notify City of Lincolnton of any accidents. First -aid kits and manuals will be kept on -site at the field, as well as in the transport vehicles. The implementation of all safety and housekeeping procedures will be the responsibility of the project manager. The project manager will maintain the work areas so as to protect the health and safety of all personnel using the areas. E. Monitoring and Reporting 1. Description This section describes the internal controls employed by Bio Gro to ensure compliance with established dosage rates and the procedures for preparing reports of land application operations. Land application activities are monitored on a daily basis through the use of Truck Reports and Daily Reports and on a weekly basis through the use of a Weekly Report. These reports, along with the sludge analysis report, provide the data used for preparation of monthly and annual reports. A Field Report is prepared monthly to portray activity for each field receiving sludge during the reporting period. It specifies the amount of sludge applied; the method(s) of application; nutrient and trace metal loadings (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, lead, nickel and cadmium); date of application and the lifetime additions of metals. A Monthly Report includes a Dosage Rate Evaluations for each sludge applied, (including sludge chemical analyses), and a Field Report for each field to which sludge is applied. Monthly Reports will be submitted to the regional office of the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources and the City of Lincolnton. F. Site Selection and Submittal Prospective sites for receiving sludge are inspected by Bio Gro personnel and evaluated for suitability. The site -specific information included for each site is listed below: 1. Field Summary Sheet A Field Summary Sheet of the fields proposed for sludge application, field acreage, and the owner of each field. 2. Owner/Operator Agreements Copies of signed agreements secured from the farm operator and landowner. 3. Field Data Sheet - Soils Information A Field Data Sheet format for displaying essential data regarding each field within a site. Nearly all sites will contain more than one field or plot. 4. Soils A soils map of the site taken from the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) Soil Survey Manual will be provided when a current published or interim SCS soil survey is available. Soil samples will be taken from all fields for laboratory analysis. Each field will be sampled by taking a number of cores and mixing them to -form a composite sample. The cores will be obtained with a tube -type soil sampler (one - inch diameter) by first scraping away surface litter and then inserting the sampler to plant -root depth, eight inches for row crops, or a depth of four inches for pastureland. The cores will be taken while walking a "zig-zag" pattern across the field so as to obtain a representative sample of the particular field (see following illustration). TYPICAL SOIL SAMPLING PATTERN Care will be taken to avoid areas or soil conditions that are different, such as fertilizer spills, poorly drained areas, dead furrows, fertilizer bands, or any other unusual areas. After mixing, the composite sample will be packaged and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Soil samples will be evaluated for Cation Exchange Capacity, pH and plant nutrients. Results of soil analyses will be included in the site package. 5. Flood Plain Map Each field is examined to determine whether any portion is in the 100 year flood plain. If it is determined that a field is in the flood plain a map is included to show to what extent. 6. Topographic Map A topographic map of the site is provided. The USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle, if available, will be used as the base on which the field will be shown. 7. S ite Plan A site plan outlining boundaries and buffer zones on an aerial photograph. 8. Vicinity lylap A vicinity map will be provided indicating the general vicinity of the site in relation to country roadways. Once a site has received approval for land application, the site is placed in an eligible category. Landowners are contacted frequently regarding the site availability. When the harvest schedule is known or a site otherwise becomes available, it is placed on an active list which is updated according to project needs. As the project progresses, additional sites will be selected for land application. These sites will be submitted on a periodic basis for review and approval by the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources. G. Crops and Dosage Rate Selection Land application of sludge will be limited to field crops including corn, soybeans, small grains, grasses and alfalfa. Actual dosage rates will be determined by the nitrogen requirement for the crop to be produced. The crop nitrogen requirement is a function of crop selection and yield goal. Sludge application rates for City of Lincolnton sludges will be limited by either nitrogen or annual allowable cadmium loadings. When sludge application rates are limited by nitrogen, the rates shall not exceed the following crop nitrogen requirements taken from Table 5-3 General Guidelines for Land Treatment of Sludge, L. D. King and P. W. Westerman, August 1983. Corn (grain) Corn (silage) Wheat Barley Fescue hay/pasture Soybeans Hay (clover/alfalfa) Sorghum (grain) Sorghum (silage) Nitrogen Requirement (Lbs/Ac) 160 200 100 100 250 200 200 180 220 The sludge application rate based on crop nitrogen requirements is calculated as follows: Sludge application rate (dt/a) _ Crop Nitrogen Requirement Obs/a) PAN (lbs/dt of sludge) where: PAN = plant available nitrogen content H. Sludge Analysis and Dosage Rate Evaluations Attachment 1 contains the sludge analyses, dosage rate evaluations and application rate studies for the City of Lincolnton Wastewater and Water Treatment Plant sludges. These are provided to determine the most limiting factor for the application of the sludge. I The calculations for plant available nitrogen (PAN) used a 20 percent first year mineralization rate for the anaerobically digested wastewater treatment plant sludge and for the water treatment plant sludge.

Other important items that were taken into consideration were depth to bedrock and seasonal high water table. Topography Slope on these sites are typical of the area of the state. The slopes range from nearly level to the maximum of approximately 8 percent in extreme cases. Topography will not limit injection or surface application of waste on these sites. Soils The soils information necessary to determine suitability for the land application of treated sludge must address both agronomic and engineering properties of the soil materials encountered on the sites. These properties can be evaluated on a preliminary basis by examining published literature such as that contained in Soil Surveys published through the Soil Conservation Service. - In addition, an actual site investigation is necessary to confirm the soils information contained in the soil survey. The soils were evaluated by examining soil material extracted from the sites with a hand auger. Hand auger borings were taken at selected locations on the sites representative of the major soil types represented in the soil survey. The soil material extracted was evaluated with increasing depth for selected properties. Those properties include: depth, color, texture, presence of restrictive horizons and presence or absence of a seasonal high water table or bedrock within 3 feet of the sludge application zone. In addition, a series of core samples were collected and composited from the plow layer on the sites to determine soil cation exchange capacity and pH to establish background levels for selected site constituents. The results of the auger borings and core samples are contained in this submittal. SY'31�21YLS ID INTERNATIONAL �ROCE55 SYSTEMS LAND APPLICATION • RECLAMATION • ALKALINE STABILIZATION • COMPOSTING .

These factors are soils, crop rotations, loading rates and nutrient requirements. The crop types and cropping schedules are investigated prior to a site being considered as a biosolids application site. The sites in this submittal consist of row crop (corn, soybeans, small grains) with some permanent pasture and hay land. Biosolids analysis information is reviewed to determine the most limiting application rate factor. For this project nitrogen is the most limiting factor. When applying to row crops, biosolids will be applied prior to planting or after harvest (this would provide nutrients for the next planting). Timing of application is important with permanent pasture and hay crops. Biosolids should be applied on these crops after grazing period or hay cutting. Soil testing of the sites included in this application indicates that soil pH 5.5 - 6.4 on most sites. The lime recommendations are generally made based on raising the pH to a standard of 6.5. The nutrient requirements are a direct function of specific crop needs. Recommendations found in the University System and Extension service publications, crop fertilization based on soil tests, for specific crops should be used to determine nutrient requirements. Application reates are based on the annual nitrogen requirements for each particular crop being grown. This application rate will also supply sufficient phosphorus for plant growth. In many instances such as with zinc, sulphur, and copper essential micro -nutrients are also supplied to the plant. The resulting trace metal loadings at nitrogen limited rates are minimal. Because of the low levels of metal additions there is no cause for concern with regard to concentration of metals in plant tissues. Salt additions at these application rates do not pose a problem. In general salts are not a problem in humid and sub humid regions because there is sufficient rainfall to leach them down through the soil profile and away from the crop root zone. The crop being grown on the site in this submittal are primarily corn, soybeans, wheat, other small grains, permanent pasture and hay: There are no restrictions on harvesting and marketing this crop other than there shall be no animals grazing on biosolids applied fields for 30 days following application. My review of the soils and crop rotations proposed for this project find the submitted sites to be suitable for the land application of sludge. igropomist :'Brio, fro Systems INAL • B e a J dd �✓ 7�vs dy W LAND APPLICATION RECLAMATION ALKALINE STABILIZATION • COMPOSTING THERMAL DRYING AND PELLETIZING C> INTERNATIONAL PROCESS SYSTEMS Ar- wheelabrator Clean water Systems Inc.

While most of the mineralizable organic nitrogen in biosolids is converted to inorganic nitrogen in the year it is applied, there is some continued decomposition of organic nitrogen in succeeding years. This continued decomposition of organic nitrogen can provide a small portion of the nitrogen needed for crop growth in subsequent years.. It is important to note, however, that agricultural fertilization including biosolids utilization is not an exact science, but rather a science of averages. This is especially true because weather conditions effect so many agricultural parameters including mineralization. Mineralization rates and estimates of organic nitrogen released in subsequent years used by State and Federal regulators are average values for specific types of biosolids. Because these are average values and because of the very small amount of nitrogen mineralized in subsequent years, it is somewhat risky for the farmer to rely on carry-over nitrogen for crop production: It is incorrect to assume that the same acreage would be used for five years and that the most conservative application rate would be applied (small grain). If the lowest application rate was used, the project would require 278.87 acres per year. The total applicable acres submitted in this application for permit is 55.5 requiring that an additional 223.37 acres be identified and permitted for the yearly program. PPG is in the process of identifying appropriate,land to be used in the long term program. A combination of crop, pasture and hay and will be identified to offer year round availability of land. The present method of disposal island filling. There is noway of accurately calculating residual nitrogen loading for five years because the PAN and organic nitrogen number for each year will be different. Also the amount of sludge_ to be land applied annually may change over a five year period. Based on the above information and the fact that PPG Shelby currently is using land filling calculating five years worth of nitrogen, mineralization would be meaningless.
