Land Application of Wastewater Residuals
Wake and Chatham Counties
Dear Mr. Woodall:
In accordance with your amendment request received October 26, 1994, we are`forwardina
herewith Permit No. WQ0000506 as amended, dated January 31, 1995, to Wallace Woodall Vacuum
Pumping, Inc. for the continued operation of a land application of sludge program. This permit is being
amended to allow the construction and operation of a 1,000,000 gallon lagoon which will be used for the
storage of wastewater residuals from Miles Laboratories, a 400,000 gallon lagoon which will be used for
the storage of domestic package system wastewater residuals when weather prohibits land application, and
a 300,000 gallon lagoon which will be used for the lime stabilization of- the wastewater residuals from
Miles Laboratories.
Please be advised, the stabilization requirements must be met prior to the land application of the
wastewater residuals. If the wastewater residuals are stabilized prior to going into the storage lagoons, the
residuals must be retested to verify that no pathogen regrowth has occurred or be restabilized.
In addition, upon a detailed site soil investigation by Mr. Karl Shaffer, the seasonal restrictions on
the Wallace Woodall sites, Site Nos. 801, 502, 803. and 804, has been removed. However, these sites
will still be restricted by Condition No. IV 4 which states, no land application of waste activities shall be
undertaken when the seasonal high water table is less than three feet below land surface.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 1997, shall void Permit
No. WQ0000506 issued November 9, 1994, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as
specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting requirements contained in
this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational
information will result in future compliance problems.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the
right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of
this permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of North
Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Drawer 27447,
Raleigh, NC 27611-7447. Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding.

incapable of adequate residual treatment
L1

e. Any spillage or discharge from a vehicle or piping system transporting residuals to the
application site.
Persons reporting such occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in letter
form within 15 days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report must outline
the actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur.
IV. GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
1, The interior surfaces of the lagoon shall be completely lined with a 30 -mil (minimum) thick
liner. Following installation and inspection of the lagoon liner, and prior to waste disposal
operations, certification of the liner's compliance with approved construction specifications
and the liner's integrity must be provided to the Division of Environmental Management,
Groundwater Section, by the project engineer.
2. The three (3) existing monitoring wells, MW -1, MW -2 and MW -3 located at the Charles
B ouldin site in Chatham County (as depicted on Attachment A) shall be sampled every
February, lune and October for the following parameters:
NOs SO4
NO2 pH
Total Ammonia TOC
Total Dissolved Solids Lead
Fecal Coliforms Total Suspended Solids
Cadmium Chloride
Water Level
Volatile Organic Compounds - In October only (by Method 1 or Method 2 below)
Method 1: Method 6230D (Capillary - Column), "Standard Methods for the Examination
of Water and Wastewater", 17th edition, 1989
Method 2: Method 502.2 "Methods for the Determination of Organic Compounds in
Drinking Water", United States Environmental Protection Agency - 600/4-
88/039.
The measurement of water level must be made prior to sampling for the remaining
parameters. The depth of water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on
the top of the casing.
The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to
provide relative elevations of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
If TQC concentrations greater than 10 mg/1 are detected in any downgradient monitoring
well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual
constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in
the k r nd monitor well exceeds 10 mg/l, this concentration will be taken to represent
the naturally occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring
TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling
and analysis as described above.
If any volatile organic compounds are detected by method 6230D, or the equivalent method
502.2, then EPA methods 604 and 611 must also be run to detect other organic compounds
which may be present. The results of all analysis specified in the monitoring requirements,
including 604 and 611 if required, must be submitted simultaneously.
10

The results of the sampling and analysis shall be sent to the N.C. Division of
Environmental Management P. a. Box 29535 Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535 on Form GW -59
(Compliance Monitoring Report Form) every March, July and November.
The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in
15A NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The Compliance Boundary is
for the disposal system constructed after December 31, 1983 is established at either (1) 250
feet from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is
closest to the waste disposal area. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or
beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation action in addition to
the penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the
disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the
waste disposal area. Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require
remediation action on the part of the permittee.
4. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall be
provided.
5. No land application of waste activities shall be undertaken when the seasonal high water
table is lest than three feet below land surface.
V. INSPECTIONS
The Permittee or his designee shall inspect the residuals storage, transport, and application
facilities to prevent malfunctions and deterioration, operator errors and discharges which
may cause or lead to the release of wastes to the environment, a threat to human health, or a
nuisance. The Permittee shall maintain an inspection log or summary including at least the
date and time of inspection, observations made, and any maintenance, repairs, or corrective
actions taken by the Permittee. This log of inspections shall be maintained by the Permittee
for a period of five years from the date of the inspection and shall be made available to the
Division of Environmental Management or other permitting authority, upon request.
2. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division of Environmental
Management may, upon presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property,
premises or place on or related to the application site or facility at any reasonable time for
the purpose of determining compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records
that must be kept under the terms and conditions of this permit; and may obtain samples of
groundwater, surface water, or leachate.
VI. GENERAL CONDITIONS
This permit shall become voidable unless the land application activities are carried out in
accordance with the conditions of this permit, the supporting materials, and in the manner
approved by this Division.
2. This permit is effective only with respect to the nature and volume of wastes described in
the application and other supporting data.
3. This permit is not automatically transferable. In the event that there is a desire for the
facilities to change ownership or a name change of the Permittee, a formal permit request
must be submitted to the Division of Environmental Management accompanied by an
application fee, documentation from the parties involved, and other supporting materials as
may be appropriate. The approval of this request will be considered on its merits and may
or may not be approved.

a Please be advised that the land lying south of the unnamed tributary to Shaddox Creek
(approximately 33.0 acres) is unsuitable for the land application of sludge due to
floodplain, slope, and soil concerns; therefore, only 55.0 acres of the originally
requested 98.0 acres is suitable for the land application of sludge.
b The cross -hatched areas of these fields shown on the attached map shall not be used for
sludge application due to shallow depth to bedrock (<12 inches) and sandy soils.
12

The fields that are not cross -hatched shall be limited to sludge application only during
the months of April through October, inclusive.
d Sludges may not be applied to the areas of these fields that have soils designated as
"1C" and "4" due to streams, shallow soils, steep slopes, and shallow depth to
bedrock.
e 'Mese fields have been calculated using 50 feet to property lines. All other fields are
based on 100 feet to property lines.
5. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit may subject the
Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in
accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6(a) to 143-215.6(c).
6. The annual administering and compliance fee must be. paid by the Permittee within thirty
(30) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly may cause
the Division to initiate action to revoke this permit as specified by 15 NCAC 2H .0205
(c)(4).
7. The issuance of this permit does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and
all statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances which may be imposed by other government
agencies (local, state, and federal) which have jurisdiction.
8. The Permittee, at least six (6) months prior to the expiration of this permit, shall request its
extension. Upon receipt of the request, the Commission will review the adequacy of the
facilities described therein, and if warranted, will extend the permit for such period of time
and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem appropriate.
