Residuals Quality Information Laboratory Certificates of Analysis Documentation of Compliance with PSRP and VAR Requirements Town of Jefferson Class A Residuals Permit Renewal Application Permit Number WQ0022155 Supportit,`Documentation Form DCAR 11-13 D. Program Information Liquid residuals are pumped from the final digester by a positive displacement pump located on the Phoenix Belt Press. Prior to the wet residual flowing onto the press a dose of polymer is applied and mixed into the flow. Dewatering occurs immediately and the resulting water is captured in a tray under the belt and flows a trough that encircles the belt press and flows to the influent wet well at the head of the WWTP, Water for the belt washing operation and for the cooling of the dryer is normally supplied by a 2 inch potable city water line, although a system for re -use of the WWTP plant effluent for this purpose is available. From the end of the belt press the cake is moved by a screw conveyer into a hopper and then fed in a batch process into the drum of the sludge dryer. As each batch is dried, the material is discharged from the drum and conveyed by auger to the outside of the processing building. The Class A residual falls into a spreader truck and distributed. Class A residuals are typically distributed immediately after production and not stored at the WWTP. PAN and SAR calculations are completed to ensure protection of soil quality. (See the attached process flow diagram) A marketability statement and information sheet is attached that the records the name and address of the Town of Jefferson WWTP as the preparer, the name and address of the person receiving the residuals, a statement that application shall be made according to the attached information, no residuals should be applied to any site that is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered, along with a reminder to observe all set -backs and avoid allowing any residuals to be carried by run-off into surface waters. A11 application is to be done at agronomic rates according to this sheet. I1. Operation and Maintenance Plan See Attachment on following page. Operation and Maintenance Plan Multiple original factory Operation and Maintenance Plans for the Phoenix Belt Press and the Fenton Sludgemaster RK Dryer are onsite at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. However each are contained in a binder format that is well over 100 pages in length. These manuals include all maintenance schedules, safety precautions, and daily inspection schedules. Due to their volume we are reluctant to include them in this application, but will certainly make them available upon request. The plant's ORC as well as the lead operator and maintenance superintendent are knowledgeable of exercising the on -going maintenance and operation of the units. The sludge dryer is connected by computer modem to the manufacturer in Brownwood. Texas and almost any operational malfunction can be diagnosed and corrected via phone line. A spill response plan for this operation is accomplished by the fact that the entire dewatering and drying operation is self-contained in one building dedicated for this use alone. All units are encircled by a pre -cast trough poured into the floor that collects any spillage or wash water and returns it by gravity to the influent wet -well at the head of the WWTP. Each unit is inspected every day of use prior to operation by the WWTP operator/maintenance technician, Fred Walters, and / or the Water Resources Director and WWTP ORC, Tim Church. Two documents (both are attached) allow operators to verify compliance with Class A requirements. * "Production Record" is used to verify that the Thermal Fluid temperature recommended by the manufacturer has been achieved. The actual discharge temperature of the residual is also recorded along with the length of drying time, thus demonstrating compliance with Pathogen Reduction, Alternative 1 - Time / Temperature Compliance. Also a certificate of analysis is attached that verifies compliance with Vector Attraction Reduction criteria Alternative 7, Drying of Stabilized Residuals. * "Tracking Record" is used to record the name and address of recipients as well as the date of distribution. We are in the process a making a change to this format that will record residuals volumes in dry tons rather than batches. Sampling is conducted as per conditions set forth within the permit. The person responsible for this activity is the Water Resources Director.

The five year average shows the Town of Jefferson WWTP producing approximately 16 dry tons of Class A residuals annually, in addition to the Class B program. The proposed maximum of 120 dry tons per year suggested in this request is based upon the proven record of this facility to produce additional volumes of Class A residuals should the need arise to become more reliant upon the Class A program. The original permit issued in 2002 allowed 133 dry tons of production. Jefferson WWTP BELT PRESS FLOW Meritech, Inc.
