Routine
Inspection Summary:
Melanie Kemp, with the Asheville Regional Office, conducted a review of the City of Hendersonville’s 2023 DCAR Annual
Report to determine whether the facility processed and monitored all residuals in compliance with Permit No. WQ0011381.
The facility appears to be in compliance with all requirements of their DCAR Permit. The City reported “no distribution” for
2023 and has not distributed since 1998 due to nuisance issues using lime in a populated area. Approximately 763.7 dry
tons of residuals were hauled the Haywood County Landfill in Waynesville, NC. As a reminder, the City is currently
permitted to distribute 0 dry tons of residuals annually. A permit modification would need to be submitted to the
Non-Discharge Permitting Unit before distributions resume.
