In order to meet pathogen requirements the material will be sampled to meet the fecal coliform density of <1000 MPN/g. The
grab samples will be pulled from the Pad or basins for either plant that are currently holding the residuals. Other samples that
will be pulled are a TCLP and a nutrient and metals sample to prove, that the material is suitable for land application. The nutrient
and metal and TCLP sample will be collected randomly and consist of at least 10 individual samples mixed together in order to get
the composite sample for these parameters.

Operational Functions
The operation function of this project is going to involve mixing the basins with plant mixers to achieve a well mixed and
consistent material that is suitable for land application. It is going to be spread at agronomic rates that are determined
by the nutrient and metal sample that is current for that monitoring period. It is going to be spread with a liquid
applicator that will use pressure to spread the material in such a way to achieve a consistent spread pattern. The
material is going to be land applied on fields that are in normal agricultural row crop production.
SAFETY MEASURES
Synagro believes in operating in a safety conscious manner and has all employee's participate in quarterly online safety
course that are designed to help its employees recognize safety issues and take steps to prevent accidents from
occurring. In addition all Synagro employees have the authority to stop operations if they think any aspect of the

SPILL RESPONSE PLAN
PROJECT: Harnett County. Utilities W00014885
IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT OF A SPILL, THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS SHALL BE TAKEN
IMMEDIATELY:
1. MANAGEMENT OF SPILL CLEAN-UP ACTIVITIES:
The Operations Manager shall take immediate charge and initiate clean-up activities. Synagro labor and equipment is to
be utilized. In the event additional labor and equipment is required, assistance may be requested from Harnett County
Utilities, the NC Department of Transportation, and other private contractors as necessary.
2. HALT '1'HE SOURCE OF '1'HL SPILL:
Such as a ruptured container or damaged transport unit.
3. CONTAIN THE SPILL:
Form a barrier. Sufficient quantities of straw shall be used for such purposes. Earthen' barriers may be constructed to
augment the straw bale containment area of the spill. The Operations Manager or the person in charge on the spill site
will advise the clean-up personnel where to get the straw, lime, and other items necessary to complete the clean-up
operation, i.e., local farmers, farm supply centers, nurseries, etc.
4. CLEAN-UP:
Employ front-end loaders, vacuum equipment, sludge application vehicles, and/or local septic tank service to remove as
much of the spilled material as possible. Straw and/or sand should be scattered in the spill area to soak up the remaining
material. The straw- and sand -soaked material will be collected and removed to a disposal area approved by
representatives of the state regulatory agency.
5. FINAL CLEAN-UP:
Employ rotary brush -sweeper if needed, and apply lime to the spill area upon the approval of the clean-up efforts by the
state regulatory representative. If the event occurs on private property, the clean-up will be completed to the satisfaction
of the property owner and state regulatory representatives. The ultimate goal will be to restore the spill area to its original
condition if possible.

Will,
I've processed the permit application and written the draft permit. Besides the missing lab reports which we discussed
Friday, I noticed there was one other thing that will need, doing: An authorization fo im or letter for Steve Ward to sign
the permit application. I'm attaching an authorization form for this. It needs to be signed by the Harnett County
Manager or one of the Harnett County Commissioners.
And also thanks on the Asheboro 'permit. I was lost, but with your info, I found the fields.
Thanks!
