The samples will be pulled from the lime stabilization tanks that are currently holding the residuals. The TCLP; nutrient and metals sample to prove that the material is suitable for land application will be pulled from the stabilized biosolids_ holding tanks. The nutrient and metal and TCLP sample will be collected randomly and consist of at least 15 individual samples mhied together in order to get the composite sample for these parameters. This material is very consistent based on the fact that it is residuals,from the treatment of waste water so there should not be any seasonal fluctuations in these residuals. The following people are responsible for sampling: Richard Mendez OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE PLAN SYNAGRO RESIDUALS LAND APPLICATION FOR WQ0001086 Town of Spring Lake Inspection Plan 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 field loading rates have been done and are correct and completed. - 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 landowner for the land is still the same as when permitted. 6. Verifying that the correct number 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 Fayetteville Regional Office 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-monitoringindicates 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. • Any release that requires immediate reporting outside of normal business hours shall be called In to DENR at 1- 800-662-7956,1-800-858-0368, or 1-919-733-3300. These numbers are to be called in the event of a release to: surface waters, imminent failure of a storage system when the event occurs outside of normal business hours. • Within 5 days of the first notice of.on occurrence a written response in the form of a letter shall be sent to DENR outlining the actions taken or purposed actions taken to ensure that the problem does not recur.

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. Spring Lake residuals are 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 have grass growing on them that are going to either 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 Spring Lake believes in operating in a safetyconscious manner and is has all employees 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 Spring Lake employees have the authority to stop operations if they think any aspect of the operation is going to cause environmentalor personal harm.

MANAGEMENT OF SPILL CLEAN-UP ACTIVITIES: The Town of Spring Lake shall take immediate charge and initiate clean-up activities. 2. HALT THE SOURCE OF THE 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 Town of Spring Lake or the person in charge on the spill site will advise the clean-up personnelwhere to get the straw, litne, and other items necessary to complete the clean-up operation, Le., local fanners, 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. • 6. NOTIFICATION: As soon as possible after the spill has occurred. 7.

Fields 4-7 are located southeast of the intersection of NC Highway 210 and Elliott Bridge Road. The surrounding area is primarily agricultural and forested. Fields 4-7 are currently in a row crop rotation and most recently were planted with cotton and tobacco. The topography over the fields ranges from 0 to 10 %. Buffer requirements as required by 15A NCAC 02T.1108 for setbacks will need to be adhered to and will reduce the useable acreage in these fields. Refer to "Buffer Maps" for specific buffer/setback requirements and acreage totals. A field- investigation was conducted by a WMSS agronomist and soil scientist on November 15, 2015. Preliminary soils information for this site was obtained from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey (WSS). A WMSS licensed soil scientist advanced hand auger borings on the proposed fields to characterize the proposed application. sites (hand auger boring locations are indicated on Figure 3 — NRCS Soils Map). Soil profile descriptions were performed within the proposed fields and indicated the fields as suitable according to the criteria outlined in 15A NCAC 02T .1104(c)(2). The predominant soil series associated with Fields 4-7 is most similar to the Fuquay series (Loamy, kaolinitic, thermic Arenic Plinthic Kandiudults). Soil profile description sheets are contained within this section of the application indicating the predominant soil series identified within Fields 4-7. Both the soils and the crops should be able to assimilate the proposed loadings of liquids, solids, nitrogen,phosphorus, heavy metals, and salts known to be in the biosolids. This assessment is based on the residual analysis provided, the planned application rate, proper crop management guidelines and adherence to permit requirements. Soil pH for mineral soils should be maintained above 6.0 and at levels to ensure optimal crop production. Nitrogen is considered the most limiting characteristic of these residuals, however soil tests should be reviewed annually to identify any changes in the nutrient status of the soil. Management practices should be evaluated prior to each application to account for changes in the proposed land use objectives. Crop management guidelines that will be of importance for this site will be: • timing of application events with plant nutritional needs and periods of plant dormancy, • split application to prevent hydraulic overloading or nutrient leaching, • performance of proper stabilization methods to fit crop and soil needs, • maintenance of proper vegetative cover on more sloping areas with runoff potential, and Town of Spring Lake Willie Brinkley Site 3 — Fields 4-7 WMSS Proiect No. 15-16 • proper coordination between application events and crop harvesting. The results of the soil analysis for these fields, included in this report, indicate no gross deficiencies in the fertility of these fields. By using standard agricultural practices for the management of forage and crop production, the operator should see significant benefits from the application of biosolids. In turn, these well -maintained fields should provide good assimilation of the plant available nutrients contained in the biosolids and afford an environmentally safe means of solids disposal and nutrient recycling.

Apply dolomitic lime to raise pH and improve the magnesium level. If dolomitic lime is not used, apply required magnesium with magnesium oxide: Epsom Salts, K-Mag or Sul-PO-Mag. Sample(s) : 3-5,3-6,3-7 Crop: Bermuda, Coastal Apply additional 50 pounds of nitrogen after every cutting and harvest of hay. The recommended 'potash is the total pounds/acre needed to achieve the specified yield goal. Apply 1/2. or 1/3 (100-150 pounds) of the total at the first application in spring or fall. Application of the remaining should be determined by the yield achieved after the first cutting and the moisture condition. If in drought condition and yield is low the following applications should be reduced or eliminated. Sample(s) : 3-5,3-7 Crop: Bermuda, Coastal Boron recommendations are on a broadcast basis. Sample(s) : 3-7 Crop: Bermuda, Coastal Use ammonium sulfate as all or portion of the N requirement to reduce pH.
