below.
A. Land Application Site Certification (FORM: LASC 06-16):
® Submit the completed and appropriately executed Land Application Site Certification (FORM: LASC 06-16) form. Please
do not make any unauthorized content changes to this form. If necessary for clarity or due to space restrictions, attachments
to the application may be made, as long as the attachments are numbered to correspond to the section and item to which they
refer.
® For new or renewed permits, submit the requested information for all land application sites.
❑ For modified permits, submit the requested information for only those sites that are new, transferred or affected by the
proposed modification.

diamond cutting of concrete). OBX is unique in that it does not participate in the generation or treatment of the by-
products generated by any of the source types listed above. At times OBX is requested to provide lime stabilization
of Biosolids by smaller operating facilities, but this quantity is normally very small. OBX's main role is to provide
transportation and operational equipment to spread the nutrient enriched by-products listed above.
Another unique characteristic about OBX is that it owns and maintains permits to land apply these by-products.
Given that most generators are issued their own land application permit, they have direct oversight of the preparation,
removal, and application of their by-products. This creates some operational and permit challenges for OBX since
standard, state issued permits are typically issued to generators not land application companies. This Operation and
Maintenance Plan (O&1VI) addresses how OBX is able to manage by-products produced by multiple, independent
generators and land applies under their own land application permit.

2.0 ANALYTICAL REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the hauling and land application event being schedule the generator must provide analytical results
documenting that all parameters listed in Condition IV. 2 — 4 and at the frequency listed in most recent copy of this
permit. If OBX does not collect the sample then it DOES NOT own the responsibility of the integrity of the sample
and the method it was collected, transported, submitted, and analyzed. Should the generating source elect to have
OBX collect the sample prior to land application, then it will be done in the following manner:
Four factors that may ultimately affect the integrity of reported data include: 1) obtaining a representative sample, 2)
preventing contamination of the sample, 3) providing legal documentation of the sampling event, and 4) protecting
the sample from chemical, physical or biological change prior to analysis.
A sample will be collected according to the schedule provided in the most recent copy of the Attachment of this
permit and prior to land application one composite sample should be pulled from a designated location from the
generating source. OBX has identified Environmental Chemists, Inc out of Wilmington, NC, and Meritech
Laboratory out of Reidsville, NC to be used as the Certified Laboratory. The composite sample should be analyzed
for:
• % Solids,
• Nitrogen Series (TKN, Ammonia, Nitrate, Nitrite, and Organic Nitrogen),
• Phosphorus,
• Potassium,
• Sulfur,
• Calcium,
• Magnesium,
• Sodium,
• Iron,
• Aluminum,
• Manganese,
• Copper,
• Zinc,
• and Remaining 503 Metals (i.e. Arsenic, Cadmium, Chromium, Mercury, Molybdenum, Lead, Nickel,
Selenium)
Approximately 2 quarts of residual should be collected. The sample containers should be clean and sterile. They
should also be labeled so that they are easily identifiable in the lab. The samples should be pulled using the method
listed below:
❖ Collect one sample from each digester(s) from which the material will be land applied using a "swing sampler"
o The swing sampler must be used with a sterile, plastic 960 ml container
❖ Combine each sample in a stainless -steel bucket
❖ Mix thoroughly using a fiberglass rod
❖ Collect each sample from the top of the access point at each digester. This access point is obtained by climbing
the installed ladder on the side of the digester.
Revised 10/22 ©Atlantic OBX, Inc. Operation and Maintenance Plan

Once the sample is pulled, it should be placed in medium size cooler packed with ice. The sample should be collected
with an enough time so that it can be delivered to the laboratory.
Once per calendar year a sample should be collected and submitted to Environmental Chemists or Meritech and
analyzed for:
• Full TCLP
• Ignitability, Corrosivity, and Reactivity
• Requires 5 Liters (In Opac Glass Bottles)

3.0 BIOSOLIDS REMOVAL, TRANSPORT, AND APPLICATION
Biosolids will be transported from the generators to suitable, permitted land application sites. Transport equipment
will be inspected, licensed and appropriately marked, as required, for the purpose of transporting biosolids. Biosolids
will be delivered to the application sites between sunrise to sunset
Both liquid and dewatered biosolids distribution on the land application sites will be uniform throughout the
application area. To ensure adequate control of the application rate for each site, the equipment used for spreading
the sludge will be calibrated by measuring the amount handled on a known square footage. While the rate of discharge
from the application vehicle is fixed, the speed of the equipment can be adjusted to maintain the flow rate needed to
achieve specific application rates. Spreading operations will be discontinued during periods of inclement weather and
will not be resumed until sufficient drying of the fields has occurred. This allows equipment access without causing
excessive soil compaction or rutting. To prevent adherence of the biosolids, transport vehicles will be equipped with
rear mud flaps, thereby preventing biosolids from being tracked onto roadways. Biosolids adhering to the mud flap
will be scraped off in the field before the truck returns to the roadway. Examples of our application tracking and
summary form/reports can be provided upon request.
4.0 SITE OPERATION
Biosolids will be surface applied at the properly -calculated agronomic rate and in strict accordance with any state and
federal regulations for the land application of the biosolids. Buffer zone distances will be observed in accordance with
applicable state and federal regulations. Buffer zones will be flagged and no biosolids will be applied within those
areas. The most restrictive buffer will apply in combined situations. Operational provisions will be taken to prevent
soil loss through erosion. Provisions will include contour application and avoidance of areas where surface drainage
patterns result in concentrated flow of runoff from rainfall. In accordance with sound, industry standard agronomic
practice, areas which are unseasonably wet (and would produce rutting or damage to the field) will not be utilized for
biosolids application operations during those periods. Operations will be discontinued when soils are saturated and
will not be resumed until the field has sufficient dried. The amount of biosolids applied will not exceed the hydraulic
capacity of the soil at the time of each application. If a subsequent pass across a field is necessary to achieve the
desired application rate, sufficient drying time will be allowed between passes.
5.0 PROJECT CONTROL
To ensure biosolids are continuously applied at the correct application rate and in a manner consistent with the
Operations Plan, an OBX Project/Field Manager will be in direct charge of the field operations, controlling the
amount of biosolids delivered to each field, and conducting daily field inspections. Field inspections will include
ensuring that flags are in place, biosolids are applied uniformly at the designated application rate, setbacks are
observed, trucks are unloading at best location, trucks are not driving over biosolids, trucks are cleaned before leaving
the field and the land application equipment is maintained in working condition.
6.0 TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM ROUTING
Per the specifications, OBX transportation vehicles will be equipped with GPS devices that will guide drivers to the
land application sites. Transportation routes will follow primary highways and avoid residential areas where possible.
Designated routes are followed unless a detour is specified. In the event of a detour route, it shall be taken as specified
by the detour authority. There shall be no unscheduled stops when loaded. Transportation vehicles will be inspected,
licensed and appropriately marked as required with identification numbers for the purpose of this contract. All units
will be equipped with spill guards and full mud flaps. This will prevent the biosolids from adhering to the tires and
undercarriage of the transport vehicle, thereby preventing biosolids from being tracked onto roadways. Biosolids
adhering to the mud flap will be scraped off in the field before the truck returns to the roadway. All federal OSHA
Revised 10/22 ©Atlantic OBX, Inc. Operation and Maintenance Plan

and DOT laws and regulations are complied with for the protection of our clients, the community and our drivers.
Examples of vehicle and driver transportation logs and inspection forms can be provided upon request.
7.0 DEWATERED BIOSOLIDS
Dewatered biosolids will be transported in standard end dump trailers with a capacity of 22 wet tons. The tankers will
be loaded per the generator's specifications and standard protocols. The aluminum dump trailers used for
transportation of dewatered cake biosolids will be equipped with sealed tailgates and will be completely sealed to
prevent leakage. All trucks will be fully covered and will be fitted with positive lock tailgates.
8.0 LIQUID BIOSOLIDS
Liquid biosolids will be transported using 4000 and 7000 gallon capacity liquid tankers, pulled by standard road
tractors, for liquid biosolids transportation. The tankers will be loaded per the generator's specifications and
standard protocols. The tractor/tanker unit will transport its load to a designated staging area inside the buffered
area of a permitted land application site.
9.0 APPLICATION (SPREADING) — DEWATERED BIOSOLIDS
At the staging area each load will be unloaded in a designated area within the land application site. Biosolids will be
loaded into our Side Slinger cake box by a OBX employee using a front-end loader. This unit is capable of delivering
an accurate, calibrated application of dewatered biosolids over the application site. The uniform spread pattern ensures
that biosolids are applied at proper agronomic (nutrient) and hydraulic loading rates. The application rates for each
site, and its corresponding crop, will be determined based on the Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) content of the
biosolids, or other limiting factors. Typical applications will deliver between 75 and 100 percent of a crop's annual
PAN requirement.
10.0 APPLICATION (SPREADING) — LIQUID BIOSOLIDS
At the staging area each load will be transferred into a 7,000 gallon capacity pull behind subsequent land application.
This unit is capable of delivering an accurate, calibrated application of liquid biosolids over the application site. The
uniform spread pattern ensures that biosolids are applied at proper agronomic (nutrient) and hydraulic loading rates.
The application rates for each site, and its corresponding crop, will be determined based on the Plant Available
Nitrogen (PAN) content of the biosolids, or other limiting factors. Typical applications will deliver between 75 and
100 percent of a crop's annual PAN requirement.
11.0 SPILL AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROGRAM
In the unlikely event of a spill, OBX will take the following actions immediately.
• Halt Source of Spill. Use of any leaking or damaged unit which is causing the spill will cease immediately. The
unit will be repaired before resuming its use.
• Contain Spill. In the event large quantities of biosolids have been spilled, straw bales will be used where
available and as necessary to either form a barrier or absorb biosolids.
• Clean -Up. Depending on the type and amount of biosolids spilled, a variety of equipment may be used to
remove the biosolids: front-end loader, shovels and brooms and vacuum equipment of a liquid biosolids
applicator. Any biosolids removed from the spill site will be spread on an approved application site, returned
to the WWTP, or disposed of in an approved landfill.
Revised 10/22 ©Atlantic OBX, Inc. Operation and Maintenance Plan

• Final Clean -Up. Flush roadways with water or sweep as necessary to clean. Allow to dry and incorporate if
Spill occurs on non -paved and tillable area. In the event a spill occurs on private property, final clean-up
should be completed immediately to the satisfaction of the owner.
• Management of Clean -Up Efforts. The Operations Manager will take immediate charge and initiate clean-up
activities. OBX labor will be used, with additional labor secured as needed. The Operations Manager will also
communicate with the public on the scene, answering questions and advising of clean-up activities.
• Reporting. All spills will be reported immediately to OBX offices and the client. State and local agencies will
be notified in accordance with their notification requirements. Within 24 hours of the spill, the Operations
Manager will send OBX office a written report detailing how the spill occurred and remedial action taken.
This report will be provided using the enclosed Spill Report form.
• Spill Prevention. The Operations Manager will implement the following spill prevention measures:
o Ensure truck drivers watch trailer while loading and do not overload;
o Ensure trailer hatches are closed and latched while transporting;
o Ensure trailer seals are inspected on a daily basis and replaced as necessary; and
o Ensure unloading operations in the field are conducted to minimize any potential runoff or tracking.
All employees receive safety and spill response training as part to their new hire training and thereafter participate in
our monthly safety and spill response training program. In addition to our internal training and protocols, we also
contract with a regional emergency response firm - HEPACO - available to respond to an incident in the Central and
Eastern North Carolina area within two hours. A copy of our agreement with HEPACO can be provided upon
request.

12.0 PREVENTION
The goal of a compliance assurance system is to prevent compliance issues from occurring. Prevention involves:
• Ensuring personnel understand their role in assuring compliance;
• Identifying compliance requirements at the federal, state and local levels;
• Implementing a system where compliance tasks are scheduled, assigned and tracked to completion;
• Developing standard operating procedures where appropriate; and
• Reviewing the compliance task list and standard operating procedures on an ongoing basis and modifying
them as appropriate to account for changes in regulations/requirements and operating methods, and to
address compliance deficiencies.
OBX ensures employees understand their role in assuring compliance through new employee orientation programs
and on the job training.
13.0 Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's)
OBX develops and implements SOPS to ensure compliance tasks are completed consistently across the company.
Revised 10/22 ©Atlantic OBX, Inc. Operation and Maintenance Plan

The SOP provides standard forms to use, approved biosolids analytical methods, frequency of monitoring
information, etc. Another key SOP relative to preventing compliance issues from occurring is the use of a "Pre -
Operating and Buffer Checklist".
The Pre -Operating and Buffer Checklist ensures federal, state and local regulations and permit requirements are met
prior to initiating biosolids applications at field sites. Compliance items on the Checklist include:
• The field is permitted and suitable for the biosolids/residuals type being applied;
• Pre -application requirements are met;
• Farmer and landowner agreements are current and the crop to be grown has been verified;
• The field is flagged to prevent applications in buffer zones and restricted areas;
• The appropriate application rate and field capacity is calculated; and
• Any special permit or local requirements are met.
• A listing of the buffer zones and restricted areas where biosolids/residuals cannot be applied
• A listing of operating requirements including notification requirements,
• application method requirements, and inclement weather operating requirements
14.0 ASSESMENT
To help ensure compliance requirements are being met and the compliance assurance system is implemented and
working, periodic, consistent, objective and documented assessments of a project/facility's compliance status are
conducted. OBX personnel have clearly -defined compliance assessment responsibilities and time to conduct such
assessments. OBX conducts informal site inspections and formal audits on an ongoing basis.
15.0 CORRECTIVE ACTION
Once compliance issues have been identified during the course of day to day business and through internal audits and
inspections a system must be in place which ensures that appropriate and timely corrective action is taken, the cause
of the compliance issue is identified and actions are taken to prevent recurrence of the issue.
OBX's goal is to have no instances of non-compliance. However, issues and incidents may occur and when this
happens employees work to correct the incident in a timely and thorough manner. When compliance issues are
identified, the situation is examined to determine the root cause of the problem and the corrective and preventive
action that must be taken. The preventive action must address the root cause with the goal of preventing a recurrence.
Depending on the nature of the compliance issue, it is assigned to one or more responsible parties to ensure that the
corrective and preventive actions are implemented. A deadline for completion of the task is assigned and the issue is
tracked to completion by regional and corporate compliance personnel.
16.0 TRAINING
An effective compliance training program involves:
• Identifying training needs and requirements;
• Assigning personnel to provide training and providing them the resources they need to conduct training;
• Documenting and tracking that mandatory t raining has occurred; and
• An employee's training needs and requirements, as well as their training responsibilities, are based on
his/her position within the company.
