ADDITIONAL REGIONAL STAFF REVIEW ITEMS
According to Kenny Fail, Harnett County WWTP superintendent, residuals generated at the South Central plant
can be managed under the Class B residuals permit (W000070661and land 'applied to farm land in that
program. if Class A product isn't needed.
The main outlet for generating and managing the Class A lime stabilized residual is the Harnett County
landfills. During operations of the landfills (the active Anderson Creek C&D disposal unit,'active Dunn -Erwin
C&D unit and closed MSW units at both Anderson Creek and Dunn-Erwin);soil stabilization is needed by
planting seasonal grasses. The Class A, lime stablized residuals provide the necessary ph adjustment and
nutrient source to help facilitate cover crop creation.
If the South Central plant needs to waste a large quantity of sludge, Synagro' will haul and land apply under the
WQ0007066 permit or if land application is not feasible (fields not available due to cropping window, rainfall,
etc.), then Synagro will transfer Class B residuals to the North Harnett WWTP and discharge into the large
sludge storage lagoon (approx. 5.50 acres, with a storage capacity of approxJ 9 to 10 million gallons).

Interference
Inhibition or disruption of the POTW treatment processes; operations; or its sludge process, use, or disposal which
causes or contributes to a violation of any requirement of the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's if different from the
Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge permit or prevents sewage sludge use or disposal in
compliance with specified applicable State and Federal statutes, regulations, or permits. [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(14)]
Pass Through
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or with
discharges from other sources, causes a violation, including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation, of
the Permittee's (or any satellite POTW's, if different from the Permittee) NPDES, collection system, or non -discharge
permit. [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(23)]
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the CWA, which is owned by a State or local government organization.
This definition includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal
sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid nature. It also includes the collection system, as defined in 15A NCAC 2T
.0402, only if it conveys wastewater to a POTW treatment plant. The term also means the local government
organization, or municipality, as defined in section 502(4) of the CWA, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges
to and the discharges from such a treatment works. In this context, the organization may be the owner of the POTW
treatment plant or the owner of the collection system into which an indirect discharger discharges. This second type of
POTW may be referred to as a "satellite POTW organization." [15A NCAC 02H .0903(b)(26)]
"Significant Industrial User" or "SIU"
An Industrial User that discharges wastewater into a publicly owned treatment works and that [15A NCAC 02H
.0903(b)(33)]:
1. Discharges an average of 25,000 gallons per day or more of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary,
noncontact cooling and boiler blowdown wastewaters); or
2. Contributes process wastewater which makes up five percent or more of the NPDES or non -discharge permitted
flow limit or organic capacity of the POTW treatment plant. In this context, organic capacity refers to BOD, TSS
and ammonia; or
3. Is subject to categorical standards under 40 CFR Part 403.6 and 40 CFR Parts 405-471; or
4. Is designated as such by the Permittee on the basis that the Industrial User has a reasonable potential for adversely
affecting the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, or the POTW's effluent
limitations and conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options;
5. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraphs 1 or 2 of this definition above has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the POTW's effluent limitations and
conditions in its NPDES or non -discharge permit, or to limit the POTW's sludge disposal options, and thus is not a
Significant Industrial User (SIU); or
6. Subject to approval under 15A NCAC 02H .0907(b), the Permittee may determine that an Industrial User meeting
the criteria in paragraph 3 of this definition above meets the requirements of 40 CFR Part 403.3(v)(2) and thus is a

The Town of Spring Lake, Cooper's Ranch, Carolina Lakes, Anderson', Creek were sending their
wastewaters to the South Harnett County Regional WWTP. In the future, the Ft. Bragg WWTP
discharge pipe will pass very close to the Spring Lake POTW on its way to the South Harnett
County Regional WWTP. (However, Spring Lake presently chooses not to tie on). It is the

recommendation of the Fayetteville Regional Office that NPDES Permit No. NC0088366 be
issued for the existing wastewater treatment plant. The subject application for permit renewal
should be processed in eping with basin wide strategy.

Unless others noted in Attachment A of this permit, "cake" residuals are residuals that have- greater
than 15% solids by weight and can be stacked without flowing, and handled, transported and spread as
a solid (i.e., using a backhoe, front end loader, slinger spreader, broadcast spreader or other equipment
designed for handling solid materials) without leaving any significant liquid fraction behind.
8. Specific residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land application
site prior to and during a residuals land application event.
9. 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) for each approved land application site.
Realistic Yield Expectations:for crop types and specific fields or soils types shall be determined by
using any of the following methods: •
•
a. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as!provided by North Carolina State
University Department of Soil' Science. The" • Department webpage is located at:
http://www.soil.ncsu.edu/nmp/ncnmwg/yields/
b. 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 9(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 Depaitnient of Agriculture and Consumer ; Services, the Natural Resource
Conservation Service, or other agronomist.
WQ0014885 Version 3.0 Shell Version 070804 Page 3 of 12

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/pages/guidance docs.html.
iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by Natural Resources Conservation
Services (NRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
Standards, which are available at:
ftp://ftp-fc. sc. egov.usda. gov/NHQ/practice-standards/standards/5 90.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.
10. 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.
11. 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 ten (10) or higher), the Permittee shall obtain and implement recommendations from
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
regarding sodium application rate, 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 maintain written
records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and rate of soil amendment
application.
12. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for residuals land application programs is specified by regulations
in 15A NCAC 2L (i.e., "Groundwater Classifications and Standards"). The Compliance Boundary for
.each land application site is established at either 250 feet from the residuals land application area or 50
feet within"the property boundary, whichever is" closest to the residuals land application area. Per 15A
NCAC 2T .0105(h), upon the request by the Permittee the Compliance Boundary may be located
closer to the waste disposal area (provided the groundwater standards can be met at the newly
established Compliance Boundary). An exceedance of Groundwater Standards at or beyond the
Compliance Boundary is subject to remediation action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(2) as well
as enforcement actions in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-
215.6C.
13. The REVIEW BOUNDARY shall be established around each land application site midway between
the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the residuals land application area. Any exceedance of
Groundwater Quality Standards at the Review Boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A
• NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(1).
WQ0014885 Version 3.0 Shell Version 070804 Page 4 of 12

14. The appropriate local governmental official (i.e., county manager, city ;manager, etc.) shall be notified
at least 24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event to any new land application site. In
addition, the appropriate county manager's office shall be notified prior to the initial residuals land
application event on any new site so that they will be aware that residuals land application activities
have commenced on the site.
15. The Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional. office shall be notified at least
24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event on any new land application site. Such
notification to the Regional Aquifer Protection Supervisor shall be made , during normal office hours
(i.e., from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.) between Monday and Friday, but excluding State Holidays. A list
of the Division's regional offices, their county coverage, and their contact information may be
downloaded from the web site at http://www.enr.state.nc.us/html/regionaloffices.html.

creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall cease land applying residuals to the site, contact
the Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division of Water Quality's (Division) regional
office, and take any immediate corrective actions as may be required by the Division.
6. Upon classification of the alum residuals management program by they Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate a certified land
application/residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the program. The operator shall
hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the program by the WPCSOCC. The Permittee
shall also designate a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to comply with the conditions
of 15A NCAC 8G .0201. All residuals shall be applied by a certified land application of residuals
operator.
7. This permit shall become voidable if the soils of the land application sites fail to assimilate the bulk
residuals or the application causes contravention of surface water on groundwater standards and may
be rescinded unless the land application sites are maintained and operated in a manner that will protect
the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and groundwater.
8. A copy of this permit shall be maintained in all maimed equipment at the land application sites when

reductions in allowable nutrient 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.
IV: MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
1. Any monitoring (i.e., including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses)
deemed necessary by the Division to ensure protection of the environment shall be established, and an
acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed.
1
2. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most -recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit shall be analyzed to demonstrate that they are non -hazardous under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). A corrosivity, ignitability, and reactivity analysis
as well as a Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis shall be conducted on
residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most recently -certified
WQ0014885 Version 3.0 Shell Version 070804 Page 7 of 12

Attachment A of this permit. The analyses shall be performed 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. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -
generating facility are distributed or 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
distribution and 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.
If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility are insufficient to require a
land application events during a required sampling period as specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit (e.g. no land application occur during an entire year when annual
monitoring is required), no sampling data is required during the period of inactivity. The Permittee
shall submit an annual report, as required in condition IV. 10, even in the event that no land
application events occur during an entire year; the annual report shall include an explanation for
missing sampling data.
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.

County Utilities)
Inspections for the land application of residuals will be conducted on a weekly basis at the land application site during the land
application activities of this project. The inspection frequency is based on the time frame that it is going to take to complete the
project and the amount of dry tons to be land applied from this facility. The inspections will consist of inspecting a current field
that is being applied as well as inspecting random fields that have been completed. These inspections will consist of:
1. Verifying that the Pre -Operations Check List has been completed and signed by both Operations and Technical staff.
2. Checking the calculated loads to insure the correct amount of residuals are being land applied.
3. Insure that all manned equipment has a copy of the spill control plan, the permit, and the operations and maintenance
plan.
4. Insure that the field has been flagged properly and that all buffers are being adhered to.
5. Insure that the Crop and Landowner Verification form has been filled out.
6. Verifying that the correct number of samples of the residuals have been taken and that it meets the criteria for land
application.
7. The records will be kept in the project files in the respective office for the project.
8. The Permittee.or Inspector shall report by telephone to the Fayetteville Regional Office by Telephone at 910-433-3300
as soon as possible but no later than 24 hours after or the next working day following the occurrence or the first
knowledge of the occurrence of the following.
• Any occurrence with the distribution program resulting in the land_ application of significant amounts of material'
that is abnormal in quantity or characteristics.
• Any failure of the distribution system that results in the release to surface waters.
• Any time that self -monitoring indicates that the facility has gone out of compliance with the permit.
• Any process failure that results in the system not adequately treating the residuals.
• Any spill or discharge from a vehicle or piping system during residuals transportation.

SYNAGRO RESIDUALS LAND APPLICATION FOR WQ0014885 (Hagnett County Utilities)
Sampling Plan
Sampling for this project consists of sampling the residuals during the time that Iandl,application is occurring. This will
result in one round of sampling to occur before land application commences in order to insure that the residuals are
suitable for land application. Based on the dry tonnage of this plant this will be one ;sample for all parameters per
year.
The residuals shall be sampled annually for the following: (Regulatory level in milligrams per:liter in parentheses.)

The samples that will be pulled are a TCLP, nutrient/metals and fecal sample(s) to prove that jthe .material 'is suitable. for land
application. The TCLP and nutrient and metal sample will be collected randomly, and consist f at least 20 individual samples
mixed together in order to get the composite sample for these parameters. In order to meet!pathogen requirements, the material
will be sampled for fecal coliform to prove that the residuals have met the pathogen requirements of the permit. There is no
vector attraction reduction for this source since it is processed to meet Class A waste water treatment plant, residual
requirements. The samples will be pulled from the storage shed that is currently holdingithe residuals. This material is very
consistent based on the fact that it has been treated to meet Class A requirements.
The following people are responsible for sampling:. Kenneth Fail ( Facility Operator) or his designee.

OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
RESIDUALS LAND APPLICATION FOR WQ0014885 (Harnett County Utilities)
Operational Functions
The operation function of this project is going to involve storing the South Harnett!Regional WWTP material under an
onsite-covered shed until the material can be given away to area farmers. This material could also be loaded on to
tractor trailers and hauled to land application sites. The material will then be dumped in the field and loaded into a cake
spreader with a front end loader. The spreader will able to spread the material in an even and consistent manner. It will
be spread at agronomic rates that are determined by the nutrient and metal sample that is current for that monitoring
period. The material is going to be land applied on fields that have grass growing on them and are to be grazed or cut
for hay for animal feed. Some fields may be in row crop production and rates will be determined by RYE for the crop that
is going to be grown for animal consumption.
SAFETY MEASURES
Synagro believes in operating in a safety conscious manner and has all employee's participate in quarterly online safety
courses 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
operation is going to cause environmental or personal harm.
Maintenance Schedule
Synagro will follow the maintenance schedule as recommended by the Synagro fleet manager for the equipment
necessary to complete the job.
