Program Information

D. Program Information
Transportation of Residuals:
The Regional Compost Facility (RCF) receives biosolids from the City of Hickory, City of
Conover, Town of Maiden, City of Claremont, Town of Catawba, as well as the City of Newton
as an emergency backup to their land application program. Each contributing facility prepares
their biosolids using different processes specific to their site before it is transported to the RCF to
be processed into high organic soil amendment (compost). The biosolids are transported via
tanker trucks that carry approximately 6,500 gallons per load from the facilities. The Town of
Maiden and individual septic haulers use 2,000 gallon tankers.
Processing and Treatment of Residuals
The Regional Compost Facility (RCF) is a twenty dry tons per day (20 DT/D) in -vessel facility
that utilizes the Ashbrook-Simon-Hartley (A-S-H) Tunnel Reactor Technology. The RCF is
owned by three local governments, comprised of the cities of Hickory, Conover, and Catawba
County. These three local governments formed a Sludge Consortium for the management and
disposal of their combined municipal wastewater biosolids. Class A wastewater residuals are
processed at the RCF and distributed in bulk to various customers in full compliance and
accordance with the provisions and requirements set forth by Permit No. WQ0004563.
The RCF is located on a 15-acre site in Hickory that is equidistant from all consortium members.
It is comprised of biosolids liquid storage, dewatering, in -vessel composting, product storage,
odor control, and pretreatment effluent facilities. The biosolids are prepared for beneficial use as
finished compost, analyzed, classified, and marketed in bulk for a variety of land applications.
The pretreated effluent and leachate from the outside curing process is discharged to the City of
Hickory's collection system.
Municipal liquid biosolids are hauled in tanker trucks to the receiving station and deposited into
two underground storage tanks with a holding capacity of approximately 190,000 gallons. The
liquid biosolids from six different wastewater plants are blended in the liquid storage tanks to
provide a more consistent biosolids before being pumped to the dewatering facilities.
The mixed liquid biosolids are initially pumped to a blend tank, prior to polymer addition and
dewatering. The wood amendment is stored in a silo and is conveyed to the dewatering room
using screw conveyors. The liquid biosolids are dewatered using a centrifuge. Wood amendment
and recycled compost are added to the cake solids and mixed mechanically before 'being
transported by drag -flight conveyors to one of four parallel aerated tunnel reactors. The partially
treated effluent is discharged to the City of Hickory's collection system.
The tunnel reactors are sized to provide a minimum of 14 days, at a loading rate of 20 DT/D
(five days per week), of solids retention time for the compost mixture prior to discharge. The
current loading rate is at 9.06 DT/D and the current retention time is 27.9 days. The mixture is
fed into the end of each reactor and is then moved horizontally by a hydraulic push system. This

method of transport creates a plug flow of the compost material through the tunnel reactors.
These tunnel reactors provide a carefully controlled environment in which the beneficial
microorganisms rapidly convert the biosolids into compost. Each reactor is divided into seven
zones where airflow, temperature, and moisture can be regulated individually. The discharge
compost is either recycled back to the mixing equipment for further processing, or discharged by
a belt conveyor to a concrete curing/storage pad. This pad was sized to allow for product storage
and aeration during a 30 to 60 day curing process. The final product is distributed to various end
users including topsoil blenders, landscapers, the general public, sod farmers, and other
agricultural users.
Two odor control systems are utilized to treat foul air produced at the RCF. One system consists
of a two -stage packed tower wet chemical scrubber with an induced draft fan and exhaust fan.
This unit is rated at 9,500 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and is used to control odors from the
biosolids at the receiving station, as well as any odor coming from the pretreatment system. The
other odor control system consists of a 72,000 CFM, three -stage, packed -bed wet chemical
scrubber with an induced draft fan and exhaust fan. Foul air is directed to two parallel trains that
can handle 36,000 CFM each. This unit scrubs the air from the main building where the
processing occurs, and also the off gases from the tunnel reactors. The unit keeps the composting
process under negative aerations and effectively removes the odorous compounds associated
with biosolids composting.
Leachate Collection
All leachate produced during the curing and storage of the compost is contained and collected on
the concrete curing/storage pads. The leachate is piped to the on -site pretreatment facility before
being discharged to the City of Hickory's wastewater collection system.
Residual Storage
Untreated residuals are stored in two underground storage tanks with a combined capacity of
approximately 190,000 gallons.
Final Product Distribution
The final Class A Compost product is distributed in bulk to various end users including topsoil
blenders, landscapers, the general public, sod farmers, and for other agricultural uses.

Biosolids Spill Control Plan
The Cities that transport biosolids to the Regional Compost Facility each will provide a written transport
Spill Control Plan. (Which will be available at the composting site)
If an on site spill or tanker rupture occurs the following measures are in place at the Regional Compost
Facility:
1. SPILL PLAN
It is the policy of USFilter to respond immediately to any chemical of biosolids spill. The first
step is to secure the affected area. Take all measures to contain the spilled biosolids.
Documentation of the incident will start immediately and will b reforme by the Facility
Operations Manager and a report prepared by the Project Manager. A spill will be reported

A. SMALL SPILLS:
Biosolids will be absorbed on the asphalt or concrete areas by using finished compost
product and/or sawdust and will be put on a cure row for composting. All material that
can be retrieved will be transferred to the receiving tanks located at the facility.
E. LARGE SPILLS OR TRUCK TANKER RUPTURES:
Measures will be taken to contain the spill area by using finished compost or sawdust
amendment. A pump truck will be called to transfer any material still remaining in the
truck to be transferred to the on site receiving storage tanks. In the event that raw
biosolids run off of the asphalt or concrete and on to the grass areas the material will be
mixed with compost or sawdust to keep runoff at a minimum and keep the material from
reaching any surface; waters. The cleanup of the contained material will then be mixEad
with sand and lime for stabilization and hauled off site for disposal at an approved
disposal site. Lime then can be spread on the affected area for local disinfection if
needed.

REGIONAL COMPOST FACILITY, HICKORY NC
CHEMICAL SLUG/SPILL CONTROL PLAN
A. Description of discharge practices:
The Regional Compost Facility (RCF) begins the daily processing at approximately
7:00am and is usually under normal operating conditions complete by 5:00prn.. The process
includes receiving biosolids from the WWTP's of Hickory, Conover, Maiden, Catawba
Claremont, and domestic septage waste. The primary process begins with dewatering the
incoming biosolids from an average of 3.5 percent to approximately 25% solids by the use a J-
Spin centrifuge. The backup process begins with dewatering the incoming biosolids from an
average of 3.5 percent solids to approximately 33% solids (amended with sawdust) by using the
Ashbrook Belt Presses. The effluents from the processes are discharged to the City of Hickory's
Henry Fork WWTP. Approximately, 200,000 gallons per day is discharged through the belt
presses or approximately 120,000 through the centrifuge. The odor control blowdown water runs
24 hours per day 7 days a week at approximately 8 gallons per minute or 11,520 gallons per day.
The processing flow is drastically reduced from 260 gallons per minute to approximately 8
gallons per minute when the processing of the biosolids is complete.

Sampling and Monitoring Plan

SAMPLING PLAN
TEMPERATURE
DAIL : Operators take tunnel temperatures with a six foot thermometer. The heights of
the tunnels are twelve feet giving us the capability to reach the center of the mass. There
are seven sampling ports along the top of the tunnels from the front to the back.
After discharge the compost is put on an aerated curing pad for further curing and
maturation of the product. During this time (from 30 to 40 days) temperatures are again
recorded with six foot thermometers into the center of the mass and recorded.
Temperature probes are calibrated weekly using a certified calibrated thermometer,
which is certified annually.
PROCESS CONTROL SAMPLING
Receiving:
Each truck that delivers provides a sample from their load. Each sample is tested for pH
and its dry solids content.
Amendment Receiving:
One composite grab sample is made and is tested for dry solids and weighed for density.
Dewatering:
Four grab samples are collected throughout the day of the influent, discharge, and
effluent. These are tested for dry solids. The discharge is weighed for density.
Composting:
One grab sample is collected for each tunnel of the four tunnels infeed and outfeed. These
are tested for dry solids and weighed for density.
Odor Control. Daily pH and Total Chlorine Residual.
Weekly air monitoring: Ammonia, Amines, Hydrogen Sulfide, Dimethyl Sulfide,
Dimethyl Disulfide and Methyl Mercaptan are tested on the influent and effluent of the
odor control systems.
Pretreatment:
Monthly composite sampling per the City of Newton's Pretreatment Permit.

Dairy Compost Utilization
C.A. Gerngross, M.L. McFarland and W.H. Thompson
The sampling of compost is an essential aspect
of process monitoring, quality control, marketing,
labeling of product and regulatory compliance.
This sampling guide should be used to assess
the quality of a finished product. By following
these guidelines, the compost facility initiates the
first step in participating in the US Composting
Council's Seal of Testing Assurance Program
{"STA').
Please consult Test Methods for the Examination
of Composting and Compost, Method 02.01-B
online at hftp://tmecc.org/tmecc/ for original
information related to this sampling guideline.
MATERIALS
♦ Front-end loader
♦ 15 cup -size compost samples per cut
♦ Sterilized sampling tool or glove
♦ Sterilized collection bucket(s) for cut areas
♦ 2, 5-gal sterilized mixing pails
♦ 2, 1-gal sample storage containers, (e.g.,
resealable plastic containers)
♦ 5% bleach solution
♦Aluminum foil
♦ Newspaper, Butcher or Kraft paper
♦ Rigid shipping container, (e.g., cardboard
box, etc.)
♦ Frozen ice packs
♦ Packing tape
WHAT TO SAMPLE
TMECC Method 02.01-B describes composite
sampling to assess in -process compost and
finished compost product. However, this sample
guideline addresses the procedure for sampling a
finished product.
A composite sample is a single sample
composed of multiple, well -blended subsamples
that, after thorough mixing, represents the traits
of interest for an entire pile or windrow.
.Select a screened pile or a finished windrow
waiting to be screened. Avoid sampling from
areas that are excessively wet, i.e., greater than
about 60% moisture.
WHERE TO SAMPLE
Using a front-end loader, cut into the pile or
windrow in at least 5 locations (figure 1). The 5
cuts must be randomly assigned and may be
selected from either side of the windrow or pile.
Cut into the entire depth of the pile and at least
into half of the width of the pile. The cut should
expose the middle of the pile from its natural
base to its natural peak.
Take all necessary precautions that the
walls of each cut are stable to prevent the
potential for collapse. Also, make certain
the sampling area is well ventilated to avoid
exposure to potentially harmful gases.

Figure 1. Cross -sectional iliustrabon of one cut-

Circles represent 15 uniformly dispersed grab
samples. Avoid collection of samples from pile
or windrow surfaces.
PREPARED IN COOPERATION WITH THE TEXAS COhMSSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY AND U.S. ENVIRONJAWTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
The preparation of this report was financed through grants from the U.S. $nvirormrental Protection Agency through the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

HOW TO SAMPLE
Collect 15 uniformly dispersed 1-cup samples
from within one side of each of the 5 cut areas as
illustrated in figure 1. Combine and thoroughly
mix the 15 grab samples in the sterilized
collection bucket. Repeat this process for each
cut area.
In the 2 sterilized 5-gal
mixing pails, combine all
samples from the 5 cuts
and thoroughly mix to
make one composite
sample. if balls form
when mixing, the
compost is too wet and
should be partially air-
dried prior to • further
mixing. Sample integrity
is diminished and
nitrogen loss should be
anticipated when a
sample is air-dried prior
to shipping.
Quarter the composite
sample by repeatedly
dividing it in half until you
have a 2-gal sample.
Gently transfer the 2-gal
sample into the 2 1-gal
plastic resealable
storage containers. Do not compact the compost
samples.
SANITATION PROCEDURES
Use a sterilized sampling tool and collection
bucket made of stainless steel, plastic, glass or
Teflon® to avoid sample contamination. Sterilize
ail sampling equipment before sampling and
between different windrows or plies. To sterilize,
wash sampling tools with'soap and water, rinse
with 5% bleach solution and then'triple. rinse with
fresh water.
Wear appropriate protective clothing and use
care when handling bleach or any other
chemicals.
SAMPLE PRESERVATION
After packaging samples in 1-gal containers,
chill them to about 4°C (390F). Separately wrap
each chilled sample container together with an
ice pack, using multiple layers of newspaper,
butcher or kraft paper. Line the inside of a rigid
shipping container and its lid with aluminum foil.
The paper and foil will
help to insulate the
shipping container.
Place wrapped
samples in the
shipping container,
filling voids between
the sample containers
and shipping container
walls and lid with
crumpled newspaper,
butcher or kraft paper.
Seal the lid on the
shipping container with
packing tape. Send
the shipping container
by 1-day delivery to
your selected
laboratory for analysis.
Laboratories that
follow TMECC
protocols must be
approved through the
STA program. A list of participating laboratories
is available online at http:lltmecc.org/sta/ .
WHEN TO SAMPLE
This is an end -process sampling so only
material that is ready for market should be
tested. According to STA program
requirements, sampling frequency should be
based on a facility's production capacity.
1 to 6,250 tons — sample once per quarter
6,250 tons to 17,500 tons — sample once
per 2 months
17,500 tons and above — sample once per
month

Fig 02.01-B1 hypothetical sample collection pattern from a compost windrow.
NOTE IR—kn this example, a scale from 1-20 is superimposed
on the long dimension of a compost windrow. Five distances
(3, 6, 10, 13 and 18 m) are randomly selected to each side of
the windrow, (e.g., numbers randomly pulled from a hat), to
assign sample collection locations. Point -samples are collected
from within three zones at each cutout.
NOTE 2B—The illustrated cut-outs are depicted on one side of
the windrow, in a real operation, the cut-outs must be randomly
assigned to each side of the windrow. Cone -shaped piles have
a circular base. Measure around the base of a cone -shaped pile
and randomly assign cutout positions along the pile's meridian,
or circumference.

shipped, (e.g., three ice packs are recommended for
three compost 4-L samples).
11.5 Aluminum Foil —lining for plastic shipping pail,
and
11.6 Packing Material -newspaper or other
appropriate bulking material to be used as packing or
fill to minimize sample movement within the shipping
container (square pail) during shipping.
11.7 Adhesive Tape —duct tape, 5-cm (2-in.) width.
12. Procedures for Method B
12.1 Cut into Finished Compost —Using tractor skid -
loader, bobcat or shovel, or sample boring device, cut
into the finished compost pile or windrow at five or
more randomly selected positions. Collect samples
from the full profile and breadth of the compost
windrow or pile. -Refer to Fig 02.01-13I.
12.2 Collect Point -Samples —Samples of equal
volume are extracted from the compost pile at three
depths or zones measured from the pile's uppermost
surface. Collect no less than five point -samples from
each of the three depths or zones illustrated in Fig
02.01-132. The five point samples for each zone must
be collected in a manner to accurately represent the
horizontal cross-section of the windrow or pile: Use a
sanitized sampling tool (a gloved hand, clean shovel or
auger) when collecting samples and when transferring
samples to the 5-gal sample collection pail.

Test Methods for the Examination of Composting and Compost

Fig 02.01-B2 Five horizontally dispersed point -samples are
collected from each of three depths or zones within each cutout
NOTE 3B—(1) upper 113 of compost profile height; (2) middle
1/3 of compost profile height; and (3) lower 113 of compost
profile height; where compost pile does not exceed the
recommended overall height of 3 m. Create more than three
sampling depths or zones within each cutout when the curing
pile exceeds a height of 3 m, relative variability is high or the
property of interest is found at very low concentrations, near the
laboratory detection limit
12.3 Composite Point -Samples —Place all 15 point
samples from one cutout together into one sanitized
plastic pail. Completely mix the point samples by
stirring thoroughly with a sanitized wooden stick or
lath, and by covering and shaking the pail to further
mix the samples.
12.3.1 Repeat the blending process at least four times
until all point samples are thoroughly blended to form
one composite sample that accurately represents the
compost for the cutout.
12.3.2 Proceed to the next compost sample cutout
and repeat this process to collect one thoroughly
blended composite sample from each of the five
cutouts.
12.3.3 Composite Sample Transfer the five
composite samples from the sample collection pails
onto a mixing tarp or other appropriately sanitized
surface or container, such as into a large pail where all
samples can be mixed, blended and then covered to
minimize moisture loss. Thoroughly blend the five
composite samples to form one large sample that
represents the average condition of the entire batch or
windrow in question.
12.3.3.1 Quarter the composite sample and
thoroughly mix and quarter again. Continue to
subdivide and split the sample into quarters and mix as
described until sample size reaches approximately 12 L
(3 gal).
12.4 Stratified Sampling —This sample collection
strategy is used to evaluate for the presence of spatial
variations or gradients in compost characteristics across
and through a windrow or pile.
12.4.1 Stratified Samples across Cutouts —Use this
sampling strategy to test for differences in compost
characteristics between sample cutouts and along the
longer dimension of a windrow. Do not composite
materials from the five separate cutouts when
Pest Methods for the Examination of Composting and Compost
Sample Collection and LaboratoryPreparation
02.01 Field Sampling of Compost Materials
monitoring for the presence of gradients along the
longer dimension of a windrow. Pack and prepare five
separate samples (i.e., five separate composite samples,
one from each cutout) for shipment as described in step
12.5.
12.4.2 Stratified Samples within Cutouts —Use this
sampling strategy to evaluate for the presence of spatial
variations or gradients that occur with changes in pile
depth or distance from the windrow core to its surface.
12.5 Prepare for Shipment and Storage:
12.5.1 Transfer the blended compost to three 4-L (I -
gal) sample bags, (e.g., plastic Ziploco freezer bags).
12.5.2 Line the shipment pail with aluminum foil or
other reflective material to minimize sample heat -gain.
Place the sample bags containing the compost sample
into the plastic pail and interleave with ice packs for
shipping (refer to Fig 02.01-B3).
12.5.3 Cover the pail with its lid. Seal and secure the
lid with a packing tape. Send the sample pail by one -
day express delivery service to your selected laboratory
for analysis. Include a chain of custody information
sheet with environmental regulatory samples (Refer to
Method 02.01-E).
NOTE 3B—Maintain cool samples at 4°C (39.2°F) to diminish
microbial and chemical activity prior to and during sample
shipment.

Executive Summary

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As required under the authority of Section 405 (d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA), as
amended by U.S. EPA and promulgated at Title 40 CFR Part 503, please find herewith
the Monitoring, Record practices and Reporting practices and procedures in place for the
beneficial use of sewage sludge applied to land as finished compost at the Regional
Compost Facility (RCF) in Hickory, North Carolina.
The RCF is a twenty dty ton per day (20.0 DT/dy) in -vessel composting facility using the
Ashbrook-Simon-Hartly (A-S-H) Tunnel Reactor Technology. Three local governments,
comprised of the Cities of Hickory, Conover, and Catawba County, North Carolina, own
the RCF. These three local governments formed a Sludge Consortium to provide
centralized facilities for the management and disposal of their combined municipal
wastewater biosolids. Class A wastewater residuals are processed at the RCF and
distributed in full compliance and accordance with the provisions and requirements set
forth by Permit No. WQ0004563.
The RCF is built on a 15-acre site in Hickory at an equidistant location for all Consortium
members. The RCF is comprised of biosolids liquid storage, dewatering, in -vessel
composting, aerated curing and maturation, product storage, odor control, and
pretreatment effluent facilities. The biosolids are prepared for beneficial use as finished
compost, analyzed, classified, marketed, and distributed in bulk to a variety of land
applications. The pretreated effluent is discharged to the City of Hickory Henry Fork's
Wastewater Treatment Plant; permit number NC0040797, for final disposal.
The Sludge Consortium (Owner) entered into an agreement with Veolia Operating
Services (VOS), to provide full contract operations, maintenance, and management
(OM&M) services at the RCF. Therefore, VOS submits this annual report to provide all
available information and data for 2018 in accordance with and to demonstrate
compliance with Permit No.WQ0004563 and the 40 CFR Part 503 reporting in Subpart
503.18 for land application.
Included herein, is a report of the biosolids that was processed in 2018 and a description
of the alternatives selected for compliance with the Pathogen Reduction and Vector

I. GENERAL INFORMATION
Facility Name, Mailing Address and Location
Regional Compost Facility (RCF)
3200 20th Avenue, S.E.
Newton, North Carolina 28658
The Regional Compost Facility is a Class A Sludge Management Facility as defined in 40
CFR Part 503.9(c). This facility currently employs one method of biosolids management
that requires compliance with 40 CFR Part 503 requirements. The primary method of
sewage sludge disposal is its beneficial use at the on -site dewatering and in -vessel
composting facility, which prepares the wastewater residuals for land application.
Generators / Preyarer of Biosolids
The Sludge Consortium, is comprised of three local governments, generates biosolids
during the treatment of domestic sewage at their publicly owned treatment works and
prepares materials (dewatered cake and finished compost) from biosolids. The RCF is
owned by the Sludge Consortium, which members include the City of Hickory, the City
of Conover and Catawba County, North Carolina. In January of 1995 the Consortium
entered into an agreement for operations, maintenance, and management (OM&M)
services of its RCF with Professional Services Group, Inc. (PSG) currently named Veolia
Operating Services (VOS). Contract services were renewed on July 27, 2017, February
20, 2007 March 5, 2002, and October 4, 2011, respectfully.

H. BIOSOLIDS PROCESSED AND DISTRIBUTED
A. Biosolids Processed
ssed for beneficial
The amount of biosolids received and proceuse and disposal at the
RCF during the 2018 annual reporting period was 2,014 metric dry tons (MDT). A
summary of the monthly biosolids dewatering data is provided in the Operations
Summary Performance Tables, Exhibit 2 for the belt filter press (BFP) and/or centrifuge
operations at the RCF will support documentation and information for the following
computation of the actual MDT of biosolids prepared for use and disposal in 2018.
2018 operations — 2,014 MDT
1. Dry short tons of biosolids loaded to the belt filter presses and/or centrifuge:
Dry short tons = totalized centrifugelbelt press load (DT) from 01/01/18 - 12/31/18.
= 2,355 DT
2. Dry short tons of biosolids captured by the belt filter presses and/or centrifuge:
Dry short tons = totalized centrifuge/belt press load (DT) x avg . solids capture (%)
= 2,355 x 0.943
= �221
3. Metric dry tons of biosolids processed for beneficial use:
Metric dry tons = total centrifuge/belt press captured dry short tons (DT) x conversion factor
2,221 x 0.907_
= 2,014 MDT
B. Biosolids Compost Produced and Distributed
The amount of biosolids produced and distributed for beneficial use and disposal at the
RCF during the 2013 annual reporting period was 3,895 metric dry tons (MDT). A
summary of the monthly Class A biosolids compost marketing data is provided in the
Operations Summary Performance Tables (Exhibit 2). The 2018 annual compost
marketing and distributuion activities at the RCF are summarized in the following
computation of the actual MDT of biosolids compost produced and distributed to market.
2018 Distribution — 3,895 MDT
1. Dry short tons of biosolids compost produced and marketed
Dry short tons = total discharged material (DT) from 01/01/18-12/31/1:8.
= 4,294 DT
2. Metric dry tons of biosolids compost produced for beneficial use:
Metric dry tons = total production of dry short tons (DT) x conversion factor
= 4 294 x 0.907
3,895 MDT

The determination of the dry short tons of biosolids received and loaded to the belt filter
presses and/or centrifuge are shown in a computerized RCF Operations Summary report
as Exhibit 2. This biosolids loading has been determined by monitoring the number of
belt filter presses and/or centrifuge in service (1 or 2), the actual run time hours each 24
hour operating day, direct flow metering of the volumetric rate of sludge feed (gallons per
day - GPD), and gravimetrically analyzing the time -composite sample of feed sludge for
total solids (% TS) using Standard Methods Part 2540 G., (APHA, 1992).
A composite of the feed solids, cake solids, and filtrate solids were obtained daily to
compute a materials balance around the belt filter presses and/or centrifuge to determine
solids capture (%). Since the RCF does not have a weigh belt on its sludge cake conveyor
belt, the generated amount of biosolids for in -vessel composting was determined by
performing a daily materials balance of the dewatering process. All of the dewatered
sludge cake was processed in the Tunnel Reactor in -vessel composting facility. Thus, all
biosolids loaded and captured at the BFP and/or Centrifuge represents the biosolids
generation and processing basis for the Annual Report and the amount of biosolids
prepared as finished compost for land application in accordance with 40 CFR Part 503.
The determination of the dry short tons of biosolids compost produced and distributed is
also shown in the computerized Operations Summary Report as Exhibit 6, page 14. The
dry tons are calculated by obtaining composite outfeed samples daily and using the total
solids and density data for calculation. The dry ton totals are obtained by using the
percent solids content of the wet mass weight. (Total dry tons = total yards of compost
produced x density x % solids content of the wet mass.)
III. BIOSOLIDS USE & DISPOSAL PRACTICES
The biosolids received at the Regional Compost Facility (RCF) were beneficially used at
the on -site dewatering and in -vessel composting facility. The biosolids management and
disposal practices are the beneficial use of sewage sludge via composting to produce a
high quality soil product which was sold and, or distributed in bulk for application to the
land in accordance with 40 CFR Part 503, Subpart B regulations.
The biosolids processing train and management practices consists of receiving and
storage of liquid biosolids and wood amendments, mechanical belt filter presses and/or
centrifuge dewatering, in -vessel biosolids composting, outside curing and maturation
product storage, foul air scrubbing, and wastewater pretreatment. The RCF is a PFRP
facility and produces a Class A `exceptional quality' biosolids compost product.
As will be certified herein, all of the composted biosolids achieve the minimum time and
temperature requirements to achieve both PFRP and VAR as an aerobic composting
process in which the in -feed mixture receives plug -flow treatment within four tunnel
reactors over an average of 28 days to achieve the necessary biosolids stabilization levels.
Compliance certifications are provided in the NC DWR compliance forms (as Exhibit 1).

SUBPART B - LAND APPLICATION
Process MonitoringRecord Keeping and Reporting Description
The Regional Compost Facility is substantially automated with numerous on-line and
continuous reading instruments (i.e. sludge flow meters, air flow meters, auger speeds) to
monitor the process and ensure that PFRP requirements are met. The various on-line
equipment and instrumentation were calibrated routinely by VWNAOS's electrical and
instrumentation staff and adjustments were made for calibration, if required. In
accordance with VWNAOS's standards for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC),
precision and accuracy determinations were made to ensure that high quality reproducible
data is generated. The monitoring data from these devices were retrieved continuously by
a computer system, where data was archived and performance reports generated.
Daily and monthly operator log forms and computer reports document various operating
parameters required for demonstration of compliance with 40 CFR Part 503 Regulations.
These parameters include system mass (wet tons and dry tons) and volume (cubic yards)
amounts of biosolids, amendments, and compost; in vessel reactors and odor control
system airflows, etc. Monthly RCF operations and performance data are summarized in
tables (as Exhibit 2).
Analytical Results for Monitored Pollutants
Veolia analyzed the finished compost produced at the RCF for various pollutants required
and listed in Tables 1 and 3 of 40 CFR Part 503.13. We are pleased to report that full
compliance was achieved in 2018 with these limitations and the corresponding
classification of the finished compost as a Class A `exceptional quality' biosolids residual
product (data in Exhibit 1 forms).
In accordance with Table 1 of 40 CFR Part 503.16, the frequency of monitoring,
composite sampling, and analysis of the composted biosolids for the pollutants listed in
Table 3 is bimonthly (6 times per year). This testing frequency was determined on the
basis of the 2,014 dry metric tons (DMT) of biosolids processed and the 3,895 DMT
marketed as finish compost to beneficial uses.
We have also analyzed on a routine and as needed basis, the essential nutrient, stability,
and maturity, decomposition, and odor parameters of the finished product to characterize
its quality for various beneficial uses, prior to its distribution. We have provided the
essential finished compost quality parameters and nutrients information to end users to
ensure the proper application as a suitable bulk organic product (data in Exhibit 1 forms).

COMPOST PRODUCT

Hickory Regional Composting Facility
The Regional Composting Facility in Hickory, North Carolina, is an in -
vessel system designed for efficient, environmentally -sound compost production.
The facility receives biosolids from four municipal wastewater treatment plants
with a combined.capacity of 20 MGD, plus county septage, and effectively turns it
into an earthy, beneficial soil conditioner suitable for landscaping and horticultural
applications.
The Composting Process
Tanker trucks transport liquid biosolids and treated septage to a receiving
station at the composting facility site. These loads are mixed together at the plant,
blended with wood amendments, and then dewatered using a centrifuge.
Additional amendment is combined with the dewatered mixture to add porosity
and provide a carbon food source for the working microorganisms.
The mixture is then loaded into one of the facility's four composting
reactors. These Tunnel Reactors provide a carefully controlled environment in
which the beneficial microorganisms rapidly convert the biosolids into compost.
Each rector is divided into seven separate zones where air flow, temperature, and
moisture can be regulated individually.
The biosolids remain in the reactors for approximately 30 days, depending
on the loading rates. Upon leaving the reactors, the compost is then transported to a
curing pad where it is placed in windrows and cured for 14 to 30 days.
Benefits
The Regional Composting Facility is providing the beneficial utilization of a
necessary byproduct of municipal wastewater treatment. Compost produced at the
plant is being used commercially as well as by the participating local governments.

Pathogen Reduction Requirements - Alternative AS (PFRP
As previously stated, the Regional Compost Facility is a "Process To Further Reduce
Pathogens" (PFRP) system for treatment and beneficial use of dewatered biosolids. This
section of the Annual Report states that VOS and the Consortium have utilized Class A
Pathogen Reduction using Alternative AS - PFRP via Composting to demonstrate
compliance with 40 CFR Part 503.32(a)(7) and in continuity with 40 CFR Part 257
regulations. The temperature of the biosolids inside the Tunnel Reactors was maintained
at 55 deg. C (131 deg. F) or higher for at least three (3) days. Bi-monthly PFRP
compliance certification statements are provided in the DWR forms (Exhibit 1).
The compost product is also placed on the outdoor curing pad for further maturaszation
and curing. Final curing temperatures were also maintained greater than 55Deg.0 (131
deg. F) or higher for at least three days. Please refer to the operations Performance
Summary Tables (Exhibit 2) of the monthly data for the in vessel composting times and
aerobic process temperatures, axs well as the compost curing piles data retention and
temperatures.
The design capacity of the four A-S-H Tunnel Reactors is approximately 54,432 ft (2,016
yd.). The standard operating procedure (SOP) for processing biosolids in the A-S-H in -
vessel composting system employs a process using single stage horizontal plug flow. The
raw (in -feed) compost was deposited in the front of the Tunnel Reactors with the addition
of sawdust amendment and recycle material and discharged after active in -vessel
composting and 'initial curing (out -feed compost) from the end of each reactor. Thus, the
active composting phase occurs in the first two-thirds of each Tunnel Reactor and partial
curing occurs in the remaining third of each Tunnel Reactor. The material is then placed
on an outside curing pad for additional maturation, stabilization and cooling of the
compost product before being distributed to the end users.
Based upon site -specific monitoring of the bulk density of the in -feed mixture compost
and recording of the number of hydraulic ram pushes for each Tunnel Reactor, the
volumetric loading (cy/dy) is accurately determined for each processing day. This
volumetric loading was divided into the fixed total reactor capacity to compute the
"actual" Solids Retention Time (days). The actual SRT considering compaction and
materials compression in 2018 averaged 27.9 days as highlighted in the monthly
Operation Performance Summary Tables (Exhibit 2). During this in -vessel composting
period, at least three (3) days of processing time was continuously available to achieve
PFRP in the Tunnel Reactors as the in -feed compost traveled horizontal from the front to
the back of the 63 foot long reactor and eventually discharged as out -feed compost. The
product is then discharge and moved to the final curing process for up to 60 additional
days before distribution.

Seven sampling ports are installed along the length of each.Tunnel Reactor to monitor
temperature within the compost biomass. A total of twenty-eight (28) discrete
measurements. of temperature in the compost process are monitored'and recorded by the
compost; facility personnel for documentation. The sideand top sampling ports give the
facility the ability to measure temperatures in each tunnel manually with an operator -
inserted. probe.. The average of certain aeration zone temperature readings. provides. the
daily dot I.. of PFRP for the Tunnel Reactors. These daily PFRP temperature logs
were documented for each Tunnel Reactor and are reported on the monthly Operation.
Performance Summary Tables (Exhibit 2) -to document the composting process was
maintained at or.above 55 deg. C during the period of January through December 201.8 to
comply with. Alternative A5 of 40 CFR Part 503.32. As shown in Exhibit 2, the average
PFRP temperature for all four Tunnel Reactors was 67.0 deg. C.
In accordance with. 40 CFR Part 503.32(6)(1), the composted biosolids was analysed for
Fecal Coliform at the time it was being.prepared for sale: and distribution into the market
place for final land application. and was found to be below compliance limits. The
bimonth>`y composite samples were prepared for Fecal Coliform analysis o�i a dry' weight
basis and analyzed in accordance with Standard Methods Part SM9221 CE. As shown in
Exhibit J, the Fecal Coliform measured for .discharged compost from the RCF in 2018
indicates no: exceedences;, all insults. were well below the acceptable limits. The
rxiaxiinuiri Fecal Coli%im density measured in .2018 for all samples was <697 MPN' per
9.
The bi-monthly laboratory reports of pathogen .testing results are provided -as Exhibit 3.
Certification Statement. - `I certify, under. penalty of law, that the Class: A. pathogen
requirements in 40 CFR Part-503.32(a)(7) have. been met This determination has been
made under my direction and supervision in accordance with the system designed to

PATHOGEN- REDUCTION AND VECTOR ATTRACTION
Need: Amount of time in reactors (SRT)
Number of temperature zones
Temperatures in each zone
PFRP
Formula:
SRT/number of zones = days material has spent in each zone
If SRT is 25.9 days of total time in the reactors
25.9 days of total time in the reactors / 7 zones = 3.7 days in each zone
Thus the material has to pass thra one zone higher than 55° C to meet PFRP
VAR
SRT/number of zones = days material has spent in each zone
If SRT is 25.9 days of total time in the reactors
25.9 days of total time in the reactors/ 7 zones = 3.7 days in each zone
3.7 days in each zone x 4 zones =14.8 days required for VAR
Thus the material must remain higher than 400 C and have an average of higher than 450 through
at lease 4 consecutive zones.
The temperatures and detention times are monitored and recorded on a daily basis. This is
transferred to a monthly report. The Monthly Report is transferred to an Annual Report to be
submitted to the federal and state regulatory agencies for annual reporting. The facility is
required to certify bi-monthly that the pathogen reduction and vector attraction requirements are
met.
