LAND APPLICATION OF CLASS B RESIDUALS PERMIT
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as amended,
and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
S & J Villari Livestock LLC

continued operation of a residuals management program for S & J Villari Livestock LLC consisting of the
land application of Class B residuals generated by the approved facility listed in Attachment A to the
approved fields listed in Attachment B
to serve the S & J Villari Livestock Class B Residuals Program, with no discharge of wastes to surface
waters, pursuant to the application received on December 16, 2022, and subsequent additional information
received on April 5, 2023, and June 14, 2023.
This permit does not exempt the Permittee from complying with 40 CFR Part 257 or 40 CFR Part 503.
This permit is effective from the date of issuance through August 31, 2030, shall replace Permit No.

IL PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The Permittee shall operate and maintain the subject residuals management program so there is no
discharge to surface waters, nor any contravention of groundwater or surface water standards. In the
event the residuals management program does not perform as permitted, including the creation of
nuisance conditions due to improper operation and maintenance, or failure of the land application areas
to assimilate the residuals, the Permittee shall immediately cease land applying residuals, take
immediate corrective actions, and contact the Wilmington Regional Office supervisor. [15A NCAC
02T .0108(b)(1)(A)]
2. This permit shall not relieve the Permittee of its responsibility for contravention of groundwater or
surface water standards resulting from the operation of this residuals management program. [15A
NCAC 02T .0108(b)(1)(A)]
The Permittee shall not land apply residuals to the sites listed in Attachment B when the residual
pollutant concentrations exceed the following on a dry weight basis:

The Permittee shall determine compliance with the cumulative pollutant loading rates using one of the
following methods:
a. By calculating the existing cumulative level of pollutants using actual analytical data from all
historical land application events of residuals.
b. By determining background concentrations through representative soil sampling for land where
residuals application has not occurred or for which the required data is incomplete.
[ 15A NCAC 02T .1105(a), 02T .1105(b)]
4. The Permittee shall only land apply Class B biological residuals that meet the pathogen reduction
requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106(b) to the sites listed in Attachment B. Class B biological
residuals generated from the treatment of wastes not containing pathogens are exempt from pathogen
reduction requirements. The Division shall specify any exemptions from the requirements in this
condition in Attachment A. [15A NCAC 02T .1106(b), 02T .1106(d)1
The Permittee shall only land apply Class B biological residuals that meet one of the vector attraction
reduction alternatives in 15A NCAC 02T . 1107(a) to the sites listed in Attachment B. Industrial Class
B biological residuals are exempt from vector attraction reduction requirements if the Permittee can
demonstrate that the residuals are pathogen -free or meet the pathogen reduction requirements in 15A
NCAC 02T .1106(b)(2). The Division shall specify any exemptions from the requirements in this
condition in Attachment A. [15A NCAC 02T .1107(a), 02T .1107(c)]

6. The Permittee shall not apply residuals or other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) to the sites
listed in Attachment B in exceedance of agronomic rates. The Permittee shall calculate agronomic rates
using the expected nitrogen requirements based on Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE). The Permittee
shall determine RYE using one of the following methods:
a. Division -approved site -specific historical data for specific crops and soil types by calculating the
mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field.
b. North Carolina historical data for specific crops and soil types as provided by the North Carolina
Cooperative Extension.
c. A Crop Management Plan as outlined by the North Carolina Cooperative Extension, the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation
Service, or a certified crop adviser.
d. A Waste Utilization Plan as outlined in Chapter 1 of the Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Grop
Guidance Document.
e. A Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined in the Natural Resource Conservation Service's
Nutrient Management Conservation Practice Standards.
If the Permittee cannot determine the RYE and appropriate nutrient application rates for the specific
crop or soil types, then the Permittee shall contact the Wilmington Regional Office at the telephone
number (910) 796-7215. [15A NCAC 02T .1109(a)(1)(K)]
7. The Permittee shall reduce the hay crop realistic yield nitrogen rate by 25% when residuals are land
applied to grazed pasture. [15A NCAC 02T .0108(b)(1)(A)]

application rate not to exceed 50 pounds per acre per year (lbs/ac/yr). If the second crop is not for
harvest or grazing, then the second crop cannot receive additional PAN. [ 15A NCAC 02T
.0108(b)(1)(A)]

has established the compliance boundary 250 feet from the residual land application area boundary or
50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the residual land application area
boundary. Any exceedance of groundwater standards at or beyond the compliance boundary shall
require the Permittee to take corrective action. The Division shall note any Division -approved
relocation of the compliance boundary in Attachment B. The Division shall consider multiple
contiguous properties under common ownership and permitted for use as a disposal system as a single
property regarding the determination of a compliance boundary. [15A NCAC 02L .0106(e), 02L
.0107 b , 02L .0107(c), 02L .0107(fl, 02T .0105(h)1
10. The Division has established the review boundary midway between the compliance boundary and the
residual land application area boundary. Any exceedance of groundwater standards at or beyond the
review boundary shall require the Permittee to take preventative action. [15A NCAC 02L .0106(d),
02L .0108]

1. Maximum Dry Tons per Year is the quantity of residuals approved for land application from each permitted facility.
2. Analyses to demonstrate that the residuals are non -hazardous (i.e., TCLP, ignitability, reactivity, and corrosivity) as stipulated under permit Condition IV.3.
3. Testing of metals and nutrients as stipulated under permit Condition IVA.
4. Analyses of the pathogen and vector attraction reductions as stipulated under permit Condition IV.5.
5. Class B non -biological residuals are exempt from meeting the pathogen and vector attraction reduction requirements in Condition IV.5, provided the Permittee does not mix them with residuals
