SLUDGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
For
Aqua North Carolina, Inc.
No sludge will be treated on any wastewater treatment plant site operated by Aqua
N.C., Western Division
Where practical, sludge removed from a Aqua N.C., Western Division facility will
be transported via a contract hauler to another Aqua N.C., Western Division
facility for the purpose of "seeding" a new or under loaded plant.
Unusable (or "dead") sludge will be removed by a contract hauler and properly
disposed of in accordance with NCGS 143-215.1. Contract haulers used by Aqua
N.C., Western Division will be required to report the quantity of sludge
transported and identify the location of the proposed disposal site if the sludge is
not taken to an existing plant operated by Aqua N.C., Western Division. Aqua
N.C., Western Division has not entered into any agreement to accept sludge into
its facilities from plants not owned by them.
Aqua N.C., Western Division will keep records on the quantity of sludge removed from
each facility, the name of the contract hauler, and the destination of the sludge (whether
used in another plant or disposed oo. The information will be kept on file and will be
made available to any regulatory agency having jurisdiction over sludge treatment or
disposal.
Aqua N.C., Western Division includes all of the facilities under the jurisdiction of the
Winston-Salem Regional office.
