A. Cover Letter:
1. No comment.
B. Application Fee:
1. No comment.
C. Application:
The table under IVA in General Requirements indicates that the Erosion & Sedimentation Control
Plan and the Wetlands 401 permit are pending and have not yet been submitted to their respective
agencies for review. The provided email correspondence within Attachment 1 of the response
package indicates that the Wetlands 401 permit was still in discussion and not yet submitted for
review. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02T .0104 (c)(6) please provide documentation that these permits
have been applied for as they are part of the critical pathway for the proposed work.
The response to Item CA within the previous additional information request was a revised
application submitted with the response to General Requirements IV.8 modified to indicate that
written documentation of compliance with General Statute § 143 Article 21 Part 6 was not provided.
However, this documentation is required for the proposed work due to the storage facilities being
located within the 100-year flood plain. It appears that there may have been some confusion about
the document referenced. Please note that this documentation is to be provided by a local
government entity (i.e., Chatham County) and is separate from the 401/404 permitting process.
Please review GS 143-215.51 through GS 143-215.61 for additional information regarding
floodway regulation and provide the written documentation of compliance as required.

O. Residuals Management Plan:
1. Your response indicated that materials excavated out of Pond 5D will be placed in Pond 5C as
outlined in the current Residuals Management Plan. Does Pond 5C have sufficient capacity to
accept these residuals? Additionally, your response referenced that sludge analyses to date indicate
that the process sludge is within the acceptable range for land application. Our records do not
indicate that a land application permit is active for Arauco — Moncure WWTF. Please note that a
separate residuals management permit is required if waste residuals are to be land applied.
