Dear Mr, Berry:
In accordance with your permit renewal application package received on November 29, 2005 as
well as the additional information received on January 27, 2006, we are forwarding herewith a renewed
Permit No. WQ0004563, dated February 6, 2006, to the City of Hickory for the subject residuals
composting facility and Class A EQ residuals product distribution program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2011, shall void Permit

conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or deleted since the last issuance. Pay
particular attention to the monitoring requirements in this permit. Please be aware that failure to establish
an adequate system for collecting, maintaining, and submitting the required operational information will
result in future compliance problems.
