Any variation of the below must be described in full detail and attached. a. Aerobic or Anaerobic Digestion - The mass of volatile solids are reduced by at least 38%. Volatile solids reduction is measured between the residuals, prior to stabilization, and the residuals ready for use or disposal. This criterion shoulc be readily met by properly designed and operated anaerobic digestors, but not as readily met by aerobic digestors Treatment facilities with aerobic digestors may need to meet the vector attraction reduction requirement through' 19c o 19d. V FORM: DRS 04/94 Page 6 of 8 b. Anaerobic Digestion - If 38% volatile solids reduction cannot be achieved, vector attraction reduction can be demonstrated by further digesting a portion of the previously digested residuals in a bench scale unit for an additional 40 days at 300 C to 370 C. If, at the end of the 40 days, the volatile solids are reduced by less than 17%, vector attraction reduction is achieved. c. Aerobic Des i n - If 38% volatile solids reduction cannot be achieved, vector attraction reduction can be demonstrated by further digesting a portion of the previously digested residuals that have a solids content of 2% or less in a bench scale unit for an additional 30 days at 200 C.

TOWN OF WAYNESVILLE BIOSOLIDS PROGRAM The Town of Waynesville Wastewater Treatment Facility has a rated capacity of 6.0 mgd and currently treats an average of apprmately 4.8 mgd. The wastewater treatment process includes a mechanical bar screen, an aerated grit removal system, primary clarifiers, aeration basins, secondary clarifiers, and a chlorination facility for disinfection. Currently, primary and secondary waste activated sludge is thickened in two sludge thickeners and pumped to an anaerobic digester to produce Class B biosolids. The sludge is then pumped from the anaerobic digester to a. belt filter press and dewatered to approximately 16% dry solids. The dewatered sludge is hauled to a permitted municipal sludge monofill. The Town plans to close their sludge monofill and install a biosolids treatment facility that will produce a Class A biosolids for distribution. Page 1 B. PROPOSED BIOSOLIDS TREATMENT FACILITIES The proposed biosolids treatment improvements includes the installation of an alkaline stabilization facility to produce a Class A biosolids product to be given away or sold. The dewatered sludge will be mixed with alkaline admixtures or quicklime to produce a Class A biosolids product as defined by 40 CFR part 503. The facility will meet the Class A pathogen reduction requirements by utilizing either Alternative No. 2, Alkaline Stabilization. Vector attraction reduction will be met by utilizing Option No. 6, elevated pH. When utilizing alkaline stabilization, the treatment process will take at least 12 hours in the heat pulse bins for the exothermic reaction, and three to seven days in the covered drying area to attain at least 50% solids, while maintaining an elevated pH. Duration of storage will be weather and season dependent, but is expected to range from immediate distribution to a storage duration of up to six months. The final product will be distributed by loading the product into trucks to be hauled off site. Page 2 J C. MARKETING The final Class A biosolids product from the Town of Waynesville Residuals Management Facility will be attractive to several markets, including farming businesses and the private sector. The final product will be a granular, soil -like material that can be used by farmers in place of agricultural lime. A review of the characteristics of similar materials that have been produced by other facilities. indicates that it could take up to twice as much of the biosolids product to achieve the same pH adjustment that would be achieved with agricultural lime. The biosolids product will also add some fertilizer value to the soil. The biosolids product can be spread with standard farming equipment. Destinations that are targeted for potential distribution include local farmers and farmers in nearby counties, the Department of Transportation a4he Town of Waynesville for landscaped areas, and Haywood County for landfill cover. It is estimated that the Town will produce approximately 1100 dry tons of final product during its first year of operation and plans to distribute all material that is produced. Page 3 e D. PUBLIC INFORMATION HANDOUT Page 4 USE OF ALKALINE STABILIZED WASTEWATER BIOSOLIDS FOR SOIL IMPROVEMENT AND PLANT GROWTH A Guide for the Consumer Town of Waynesville Haywood County, North Carolina For further technical guidance contact your County Agricultural Extension Service Agent. The Town of Waynesville may be contacted at the address below: Town of Waynesville 106 South Main Street Waynesville, North Carolina 28786 Page 5 GENERAL USES, PROPERTIES, AND PRECAUTIONS Alkaline 'stabilized biosolids can be utilized advantageously by the local, large scale farmer as a soil pH enhancer and low-grade fertilizer. It can also be used by individuals wishing to enhance the pH of their lawns and gardens or any other area that may need a soil amendment. Alkaline stabilized and lime pasteurized biosolids contain plant nutrients and may be considered a low-grade fertilizer. It's main value is as a soil pH enhancer and as a soil conditioner. Alkaline stabilized biosolids are known to improve the physical properties of soil in the following ways: • Enhanced Aggregation - Lime stabilized biosolids increases the tendency of soil particles to stick together. • Increased water retention - Allows sandy soils to hold water better. • Improved Permeability - Helps make clay or other heavy soils more friable and loose, reducing compaction. • Improved aeration - Looser soil encourages root growth. 1 • Increases overall soil pH - restores soil pH to optimum conditions for several commercial/agricultural products. Page 6 Alkaline stabilized wastewater biosolids are a product of municipal sewage. Alkaline stabilized and lime pasteurized biosolids may be assumed to be free of dangerous pathogens and toxic substances, but it should be treated with respect. Contact with children and pets should be minimized and direct ingestion of lime stabilized biosolids should be avoided. Also, due to the highly alkaline nature of lime pasteurized biosolids, prolonged contact with the biosolids should be avoided. As with agricultural lime processed residuals cannot be applied to any site that is flooded, frozen or snow covered and adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any disposed or stored residuals into any surface waters. Residuals also cannot be placed any closer than ten (10) feet from any public or private water supply source (including wells) and any stream, lake, river, or natural drainage way. Application of these residuals is prohibited except as in accordance with the instructions on this information sheet.

The residuals are treated by pasteurization and alkali addition prior to storage in a covered shed. The residuals are then sold for agriculture use in bulk quantities. According to the application form, the pollutant concentrations of the residuals are less than the required Pollutant Monthly Average Concentration listed in IV. (5)(A). However, due to the limited presence of potential carcinogens such as arsenic and nickel, the land application of these residuals should be applied in areas of limited human activities in order to avoid any chronic and accidental inhalation or ingestions of airborne particulates. Due to the type of containment of the storage area, and intended use of the residuals, no impact to groundwater is expected. The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit renewal and recommends re -issuance with the following conditions: 1. Applicable Boundaries a. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in 15A NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards.

The purpose of the CEI was to evaluate the Town's Part 503 program. The following individuals participated in the inspection: Name Organization Telephone Mike Horn EPA, Region 4 404-562-9748 Ed Sims EPA, Region 4 404-562-9768 David Smith Town 828-456-4685 The WWTP is a 6 MGD activated sludge plant. The sludge treatment train consists of primary and secondary gravity thickeners, anaerobic digestion, belt press, lime stabilization, pasteurization, and storage. The sewage sludge is monitored for Class A sludge requirements. The Class A material is distributed by a contractor to local farmers. Permit: The 503 rules are self implementing. POTWs greater than one MGD are required to submit annual reports to the permitting authority. In addition, the Town is subject to their North Carolina NPDES Permit No. NCO025321. Rating: satisfactory Records/Reports: The records were spot checked. The Town maintains operational sludge management records on a daily basis for process control. A commercial laboratory conducts inorganic pollutant, solids, fecal coliform, and nutrients once per sixty days on the Class A sewage sludge. The Town maintained chain of custody records and analytical results from the commercial laboratory. The Town maintained operator logs on the pasteurization vessel operations and include the date, number of loads (load=3.5 tons) treated, and temperature. Annual Report - The Town submitted its annual report dated February 10, 1999. The Town treats their sludge at a Class A level and selected alternative #5: use of Processes to Further Reduce Pathogens (PFRP), as referenced in 40 CFR § 503.32(a)(7) and option #6: addition of NPDES 503 Biosolids Waynesville NC/ Compliance Evaluation Inspection ....page 3 alkali, as referenced in 40 CFR § 503.33(b)(6) to demonstrate pathogen reduction and vector attraction reduction (VAR), respectively. The annual report provided the treatment process, the amount disposed, the metal analyses, fecal coliform data, the VAR option, and certification statements. The Town disposed its sewage sludge at the Frazier Street Monofill from January through April. From May through December, the Town began processing its sludge via lime pasteurization. Rating: satisfactory Self Monitoring Program: All sludge parameters are monitored by the commercial laboratory. Samples are collected by the Town and are picked up by the commercial laboratory. The total solids analytical method reported by the commercial laboratory is EPA 160.3. The appropriate method is Standard Method 2540G. The past fecal coliform records did not indicate the sample analysis time to demonstrate holding time requirements nor the test method. The commercial laboratory recently record the above upon the request of the Town. The Town does not monitor for pH to demonstrate the. VAR requirement. The pH is measured only after 24 hours.

Rating: NA NPDES 503 Biosolids Waynesville NC/ Compliance Evaluation Inspection ....page 4 Facility Site Review: WWTP is a 6 MGD activated sludge plant. The sludge treatment train consists of separate primary and secondary gravity thickeners. The sludge age is the process control and dictates the wasting schedules. Approximately 11,000 gpd are wasted from the primary and 12- 13,000 gpd from the secondary. The sludge is thickened from 1.5% to 3 - 4% prior to anaerobic digestion (487,000 gal capacity). The digested sludge is then dewatered through a one -meter Envirex belt press operated at 35 gpm (dictated by the pasteurization vessel). Kiln dust (or quick lime) and agricultural lime are added to the sludge and the sludge is pasteurized at a temperature of 165 - 170°F for 30 minutes. The ratio of lime to sludge is approximately 1:1 (22% ag lime; 25% quick lime; 53% sludge). The sludge is stored on site. Oldest sludge on site is from April 1999. Rating: satisfactory Sludge Handling/Disposal: Monitoring Frequency - The Town reported 1,070 dmt disposed in 1998 in their annual report. For January through June 1999, the amount disposed as recorded by the Town is 425 dmt (the amount produced in this period was 850 dmt). Extrapolating, the annual amount is 1,700 dmt. The monitoring frequency for this amount is once per sixty days. The Town stated that within the year, the entire amount will be disposed and has increased the monitoring from quarterly to bi-monthly. Inorganic Pollutants and nutrients- The Town data for 1999 indicated inorganics were within the monthly average limitations in Table 3 of 40 CFR 503.13. Nutrients are monitored for the "exceptional quality" (EQ) sewage sludge commercial value (regulated agronomic rates do not apply to EQ sludge). Pathogen Reduction - The Town selected alternative #5: use of PFRP. Densities are reported in MPN/gm of total solids. 1999 data indicated the results are less than 4 MPN/gm and temperatures are maintained >1580F for 30 minutes.. Vector Attraction Reduction - The Town selected option #6: addition of alkali. Data indicated the pH is not monitored to demonstrate pH z 12 for 2 hours and pH >_ 11.5 after 22 additional hours. The pH readings from the commercial laboratories indicate pH > 11.5 after several days. Rating: marginal �� vvr+fF9. cor Michael F. Easley Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources © < Kerr T. Stevens Division of Water Quality February 23, 2001 Mr. David Smith, WWTP Superintendent Town of Waynesville 566 Walnut Trail Waynesville, North Carolina 28786 Subject: - Response to Notice of Violation Town of Waynesville WQ0013116 Dear Mr. Smith: The Division of Water Quality is in receipt ` of your response to the Notice of Violation and Recommendation for Enforcement issued to the Town of Waynesville. The exiting temperature data for the pasteurization unit and process was very helpful in understanding the steps that you take to insure compliance with the pathogen reduction requirements in 40 CFR Part 503. However, we still have questions concerning the point in the pasteurization process in which the residuals reach the required temperature of 70°C (158°F). In order to comply with Permit Condition .III.5., the Town of Waynesville must provide operational data which clearly shows that the time and temperature requirements have been met. Although the residuals may be at or above the required temperature asthey exit the unit, it is important to know where in the unit the residuals have met the required temperature. Appendix B to 40 CFR Part 503 requires that the temperature of the .residuals be maintained at 70°C. Once the temperature of the residuals has reached 70°C, they must remain at or above that temperature`for at least 30 minutes: If the residuals exit the pasteurization vessel before the 30-minute period -has ended, the residuals must be monitored to ensure that the temperature does not drop below 70°C. It may be necessary to construct an insulated vessel to maintain the temperature for the remaining time. Some experimentation with the RDP process unit may be needed to determine the information necessary to demonstrate compliance with Alternative 5: Pasteurization. In addition, for the demonstration of pathogen reduction for Class A residuals under Alternative 5, fecal coliform concentrations must also be monitored. It is recommended in 40 CFR Part 503 that multiple samples be analyzedduring each sampling. event. We recommend that seven (7) samples, taken within a two -week period, be analyzed_ during each sampling interval. Fecal coliform sampling data cannot be averaged to meet Class A residuals requirements. Each fecal coliform sample must meet the concentration limit established in 40 CFR Part 503(a)(7). If you have any, further questions, please contact me at (919) 733-5083, ext. 529 or Kevin Barnett in the Asheville Regional Office at (828) 251-6208.

The facility was found to be in Compliance with permit WQ0013116. On August 5, 2009, Session Law 2009-406, entitled "An Act to Extend Certain Government Approvals Affecting the Development of Real Property Within the State," was enacted by the General Assembly and signed into law. The Act, known as the Permit Extension Act of 2009, extends the expiration date of certain government approvals and permits. Non -discharge permit, WQ0013116 issued by the Division of Water Quality falls within the scope of the Act and is therefore being extended until 12/31/2014.

This permit shall .be effective from the date of issuance until December 31, 2011, shall void Permit No. WQ0013116 issued March 1, 2002; and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 1. The distribution of Class A residuals program shall .be effectively -maintained and operated as a non -discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of this program. 2. This permit shall become voidable in the event of failure of the residuals program to adequately protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and groundwaters. 3. The .issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation.of this program. 4. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated residuals or leachate from the residual treatment facilities is prohibited. 1 In the event that the residuals program is not operated satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take any immediate corrective actions as may be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division), and contact the Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office. 6. All leachate must be reused as a wetting agent for the processing of residuals or routed to the head of the treatment plant. 7. The pollutant concentrations in any residuals that are land applied to any land application site shall not exceed the following Ceiling and Monthly Average Concentrations (i.e., dry weight basis): Parameter Monthly Average Concentration (milligrams per kilogram) Ceiling Concentration (milligrams per kilogram) Arsenic 41 75 Cadmium 39 85 Copper 1,500 4,300 Lead 300 840 Mercury 17 57 Molybdenum n/a 75 Nickel 420 420 Selenium 100 100 Zinc 2,800 7,500 8. When wastewater residuals are sold or given away, one of the Class A pathogen requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106(b) and one of vector attraction reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1107(a) must be met. Additionally, an evaluation must be performed which demonstrates the residuals ability to comply with this requirement. Upon request, a copy of this evaluation must be submitted including all test results and calculations II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS The residuals treatment facilities shall be properly maintained and operated at all times. 2. Upon classification of the facility by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall employ a certified residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the residuals program. The operator must hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the residuals program by the WPCSOCC. The Permittee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to comply with the conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0202. 3. The residuals and associated maximum volume specified in Attachemnt A of this permit are hereby approved for distribution in accordance with this permit: 4. No residuals other than those specified in Attachment A of this permit may be distributed. The Permittee shall request and obtain a permit amendment from the Division for each additional residual source prior to acceptance of that residual. 2 5. Adequate provisions shall be taken to prevent wind erosion and surface runoff from conveying pollutants from the residuals treatment area onto the adjacent property or into any surface waters. All residuals shall be adequately stored to prevent leachate runoff until treated. The finished product may be placed on a concrete pad, placed under shelter or covered until such time as it is distributed to the buyer. If an alternate storage site is to be used, approval must be obtained from the Division. 7. A label shall be affixed to the bag or other container in which residuals that are sold or given away for application to the land, or an information sheet shall be provided to the person who receives the residuals sold or given away in an other container for application to the land. The label or information sheet shall contain the following information: ✓. The name and address of the person who prepared the residuals that is sold or given away in a bag or other container for application to the land. b.

A statement which identifies that this material shall be prevented from entering any public or private water supply source (including wells) and any stream, lake, or river. e A statement that the residuals shall be applied at agronomic rates and recommended rates for intended uses. 8. Bulk residuals sha1_l not be applied to the land under the following conditions: a. If the residuals are likely to adversely affect a threatened or endangered species listed under section 4 of the Endangered Species or its designated critical habitat; b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions; c. If the land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of surface water or groundwater standards; L'd. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of the residuals would occur; e. Within the 100-year flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event; f. During a precipitation event or within 24 hours following a rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division; g. If the slope for land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied, and if the slope of the land is greater then 18 percent with bulk liquid residuals are injected or incorporated; h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on all land application sites onto which residuals are land applied. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the specified crop and the soil type; i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist unless the bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event or injected; j. If the vertical separation of the seasonal high water table and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; 1. Application exceeds agronomic rates. 9. For residuals treatment and storage facilities, the following minimum setbacks shall be adhered to: Description of Setback Minimum Setback (feet) Habitable residence or place of public assembly under separate ownership or not to be maintained as part of the project site 100 Property lines 50 Private or public water supply 100 Surface waters (streams — intermittent and perennial, perennial waterbodies, and wetlands) 50 Wells with exception to monitoring wells 100 10. When land applying bulk residuals to any land application site, the following setbacks shall be maintained at all times: Setback by type of Residual (feet) Description of Setback Liquid Cake Private or public water supply 100 100 Surface waters (streams — intermittent and perennial, perennial waterbodies, and wetlands) 100 25 Surface water diversions (ephemeral streams, waterways, ditches) 25 0 Groundwater lowering ditches (where the bottom of the ditch intersects the SHWT) 25 0 Subsurface groundwater lowering system Wells with exception to monitoring wells 100 100 Bedrock outcrops 25 0 11. Specific bulk residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land application site prior to and during a residuals land application event. 12. Upon entering an agreement with landowners to apply bulk residuals to a land application site, the Permittee shall require of the landowner or lessee/operator a statement detailing the volume of nutrient sources (waste residuals, manufactured fertilizers, manures, or other animal waste products) 'other than the residuals to be applied by the Permittee, that have been applied to the land, and a copy of the most recent Nutrient Management Plan (NMP), if available, for the fields within the agreement. 4 For the purpose of this permit condition, a Crop Management Plan (CMP), Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) or Certified Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) shall also be considered a Nutrient Management Plan. The NMPs must be provided only for those operations where a NMP (also CUT, WUP, or CNMP) is required by the US Department of Agriculture = National Resources Conservation Service (MRCS) or other State Agencies. The Permittee shall rely on the provided information to calculate appropriate reductions in allowable PAN loading, rates. If, the calculation shows that the agronomic rates (including PAN) have already been met or exceeded on a field, no additional residuals shall be land applied to that field. 13. Bulk residuals .and other sources of PAN shall be land applied to all land application sites at or below agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using expected nitrogen requirements based on the Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) field cover for each approved land application site. Realistic Yield Expectations for crop types and specific fields or soils types can be determined by using any of the following methods: a.

Site Specific Historical Data for crop types on specific fields or soil types by calculating the mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field. c. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods 13(a) or (b) above, RYE can be established from specially developed soil interpretation records for Nutrient Management Planning, Farm Service Agency Records, university trials, or inference from crop performance on soil with very similar physical and chemical features. d. Realistic Yields Expectations and acceptable nitrogen application rates that use the above methodology are required parts of many agricultural planning documents. The Permittee may use the RYE and appropriate agronomic rates reported in any of the following documents: i. Crop management plan as outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group - Guidance Document: Chapter 1. Guidance for the completion of the plan can be found at http://www.enr.state.nc.us/DSWC/l)a%zes/ggidance docs.html. iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as 'outlined by Natural Resources Conservation Services (MRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management Standards, which are available at: ftp.//ftp- fc.sc.egov.usdagov/IA/technical/N590 03-2001.pdf. e. For any crop type for which the RYE and appropriate nitrogen application rate cannot be determined, the Permittee shall contact the Division to determine necessary action. 14. If the land application sites are to be overseeded (e.g., bermuda grass in the summer and rye grass in the winter with BOTH crops to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive an application. of PAN at a rate of no greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. This practice shall be allowed as long as the second crop is to be harvested. If the second crop is to be planted for erosion control only and is to be tilled into the soil, then no residuals shall be land applied to these sites because the PAN will essentially be returned to the soil. Prior to application of PAN to permitted sites at rates exceeding the agronomic rate, the Permittee must submit and receive approval by the Division 15. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facilities, listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of five (5) or higher), the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) or other method as approved by the Division, using the results from the annual soils analysis as required by this permit, shall be monitored on all of the land application sites. The local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, a North Carolina -licensed Soil Scientist, or other agronomist shall review the results and make recommendations regarding soil amendments (e.g., gypsum, etc.) or other ameliorative mechanism for maintaining the integrity of the site in terms of suitability for land application of residuals and maintaining conditions conducive to crop growth. The Permittee shall implement such recommendations accordingly and shall maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and rate of soil amendment application. III. MONITORING AND REPORTING REOUIREMENTS Any monitoring (including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses) deemed necessary by the Division to insure protection of the environment will be established and an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed. 2. Residuals generated by each approved residuals source -generating facility shall be analyzed to demonstrate that they are non -hazardous under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, and the results shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. A corrosivity, ignitability, and reactivity analysis as well as a Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each approved residuals source -generating facility. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility are land applied at a frequency less than that which is specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, the analyses shall be required for each residuals land application event. Only residuals that are generated by the residuals source -generating facilities that are identified as being exempt from this condition in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit shall not be required to comply with this monitoring requirement. The TCLP analysis shall include the following parameters (i.e., note the regulatory level in milligrams per liter in parentheses): 0 VArsenic(5.0) ✓ Dv 1;4=Dich1-or-obenzene-(7.5)-010�,' Witrobeinzene (2.0) :✓ 0 6c vBar-iunr(100.0)✓. op, 172=Dichloroethane (0.5)�/, 0 V,4 W-entaehlorephenol (100.0)n/ _Benz=(0.5) .kZ o ✓ 1;1 Dichlor-oethylene (0.7)v0V,- t.Pyritiine-(5.0) I o p� e, C-admium- (1.0),i : 0��! 2;4 Dinitreteluene (0.13).✓pax Selenium (1.0)s/i C'arborrtetrachironde (O.S drii (0.02) ✓/ vex �Sil�er-(5.0)V V xi --Chlordane (0.03)nl /Dvx He-xachlerobenzene (0.13)t/,,'cc)) VT-etrrachloroethyl ene, (0.7) o ✓ Ghlorob n� (100.0)5 ,yCtHeptachlor- (and its hydroxide) (0.008)5I a,Kaphene (0.5) `e-, o,® Chloroform (6.0) ✓ m,yX:Hexachloro-l-,3-butadie-ne(0.5)arvT-richloroethylene-(0.5)A✓. p vu s.,;,Ghrom1um-(5.0)✓, cv%v-Hex-aehloroethane (3.0) V g vX2;4;5=T-richlorophe-nol (400.0)V, o,,I-A Nm-Gres-oi.

Residuals were monitored for nutrients/metals/TCLP as required by the permit. The data appeared to be complete and accurate. The permittee uses fecal coliform density and Alternative 5 (Pasteurization) to satisfy the pathogen reduction requirements. Vector attraction reduction (VAR) is accomplished by alkaline stabilization. The following issues were noted in the review regarding Pathogen/VAR requirements: 1.The required hold time from collection to analysis for pH samples is 15 minutes. Based on the 503 Lime/Sludge pH Meter Calibration sheets submitted in the annual report, the hold time is not being met. 2.This facility is certified for pH analysis method: SM 4500-H+B.-2000 (Aqueous). You should also obtain a certification for method SW-846 9040C (aqueous phase is at least 20%). There is no cost for additional certifications for pH analysis. 3-The compliance boxes were not checked on the Annual Pathogen and Vector Attraction Reduction Certification Form.

VAN DER VAART Secretary S. JAY ZIMMERMAN Director Enclosed please find a copy of the Annual Report Review Inspection Form from the inspection conducted on 9/19/2016. The facility was found to be in compliance with permit WQ0013116. The following issues were noted and should be addressed: 1. You are currently certified for the following method for pH analysis: SM 4500-WB-2000 (Aqueous). You should also seek certification for pH analysis method: SW-846 9040C — This method is used to measure the pH of aqueous wastes and those multiphase wastes where the aqueous phase constitutes at least 20% of the total volume of the waste. Please contact Jason Smith with the Laboratory Certification Section at (828) 296-4679 for assistance. There are no additional costs for this certification. This was noted in the 2015 inspection cover letter. 2. There were numerous pH buffer Quality Control (QC) checks that were not within an acceptable range. Please see the Inspection Summary for additional information. Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for additional observations and comments. If you or your staff have any questions, please call me at 828-296-4500.

Metals/Nutrients/TCLP were conducted according to permit requirements. Metals ceiling concentration limits and monthly average concentration limits appeared to meet permit limits. TCLP permit limits appear to have been met. Pathogen Reduction was accomplished using fecal coliform density and Alternative #5 — PFRP Pasteurization. Vector Attraction Reduction (VAR) was accomplished using Alkaline Stabilization. One issue that was noted during the review was with regard to the pH buffer Quality Control (QC) readings. There were numerous QC checks in which the standard 13 pH buffer was not within the proper range. The meter must be calibrated with at least two buffers. In addition to the calibration buffers, the meter calibration must be verified with a third standard buffer solution. The calibration and check standard buffers must bracket the range of the samples being analyzed. The check standard buffer must read within ±0.1 S.U. to be acceptable.

The Town of Waynesville Biosolid Product is a combination of equal parts municipal sewage sludge and lime blended together and heat pasteurized to produce a class A stabilized biosolid product that meets EPA 503 regulations for agricultural use. A label shall be affixed to the bag or other container in which residuals that are sold or given away for application to the land, or an information sheet shall be provided to the person who receives the residuals sold or given away in another container for application to the land. The label or information sheet shall contain the following information: • Application of the residuals to the land is prohibited except in accordance with the instructions on this information sheet. • Application of this material shall be prevented from entering any public or private water supply source (including wells) and any stream, lake, or river. • The residuals shall be applied at agronomic rates and recommended rates for intended uses. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS Bulk residuals shall not be applied to the land under the following conditions: a. If the residuals are.likely to adversely affect a threatened or endangered species listed under section 4 of the Endangered Species or its designated critical habitat; b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions; c. Ifthe land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of surface water or groundwater standards; d. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow- covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of the residuals would occur; e. Within the 100-year . flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event; f. During a precipitation event or within 24 hours following a rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division; g. If the slope for land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied, and if the slope of the land is greater than 18 percent with bulk liquid residuals are injected or incorporated; h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on all land application sites onto which residuals are land applied. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the specified crop and the soil type; i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist unless the bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event or injected; j. If the vertical separation of the seasonal high water table and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; I. Application exceeds agronomic rates.

These regulations set limits for pathogen and vector attraction reduction in the disposal of sewage biosolids and for heavy metal concentrations such as Mercury, Cadmium, Arsenic, Chromium, Copper, Lead, Molybdenum, Nickel, Selenium and Zinc. Although a few of these metals can be considered macro nutrients when available in trace amounts they can be very toxic in high concentrations. The lime stabilization heat pasteurization proces eliminates the pathogen and vector attraction problem. The Town of Waynesville Sewer Use Ordinance and Industrial Pretreatment Regulations limits the amount of heavy metals that can enter the Waste Water Treatment Plant. Since 1994, all quarterly analyses of Waynesville's sewage biosolids have met the U.S. EPA requirement for "exceptional" or "high quality" for heavy metals concentration limits.
