i) 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater drainage systems and
surface drainage ditches for both application methods.
6. A copy of this permit shall be maintained at the land application site when residuals are being applied
during the life of this permit. A spill prevention and control plan shall be maintained in all residuals
transport and application vehicles.
7_ Specific residual application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each site prior to and during
application.
8. No residuals at any time shall be stored at any application site, unless approval has been requested and
obtained from the Division.
9. Maximum slope for residual application shall be 10% for surface application and 18% for subsurface
applications.
10. When wastewater residuals are applied, the Class A pathogen requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR
Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(b), and one
of vector attraction reduction requirements in 40 CFR Part 503.33 shall be met. Additionally, an evaluation
must be performed which demonstrates the residuals ability to comply with this requirement. Upon
request, a copy of this evaluation must be submitted including all test results and calculations.
H. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The facilities and application sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times.
2. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in condition 11 4, shall be maintained in accordance with the crop
management plan outlined by the local Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture, the Natural

If the approved land application sites are to be double cropped (i.e., a crop in the spring and a second
crop in the fall, with BOTH crops to receive wastewater residuals), then the second crop shall receive
an application of nutrients at a rate of no greater than 50 lbs/acre/yr. This practice will be allowed as
long as the second crop is to be harvested. If the second crop is to be planted for erosion control only,
and is to be tilled into the soil, then no wastewater residuals shall be applied to these fields because the
nitrogen will essentially be returned to the soil.
