In accordance with your permit renewal and modification application package received on April
20, 2004 as well as the additional revised package received on November 22, 2004, we are forwarding
herewith a modified Permit No. WQ0000783, dated December 8, 2005, to S & B Maintenance, Inc. for
the subject residuals land application program.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until November 30, 2010; shall void
Permit No. WQ0000783, issued on September 4, 2003; and shall be subject to the conditions and
limitations as specified therein. Make note of this permit's expiration date and the fact that a permit
renewal application is due to the Division of Water Quality (Division) no later than six months prior to
that date (i.e., see Condition VI. 7.), as the Division does not send reminders to apply for permit renewal.
This permit approves the continued operation of the residuals land application program for
another five-year cycle and is being modified to approve residuals from several additional residuals
source -generating facilities for land application as well as to delete facilities.

This permit is also modified to increase maximum residual volume in several of the
residuals source -generating facilities, and to increase total area available for land application. Even
with the addition of land application sites, the net acreage available for land application appears to
be marginally adequate. The permittee is advised to seek the possibility of constructing and
operating on-site treatment and/or storage facilities or acquire more land for residual application
prior to the next modification of this permit. It is also suggested that the permittee consider realistic
yields and nitrogen carry-over in analyzing the need for additional land.
As always, please remember to take the time to review this permit thoroughly, as some of the
conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or deleted since the last issuance. Pay
particular attention to the monitoring requirements in this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system
for collecting and maintaining the required operational information will result in future compliance
problems. Of particular interest to you may be the following:
♦ Footnote a. of Attachment A requires that, since time stabilization is used as the method of pathogen
reduction and vector attraction reduction for all of the residuals source -generating facilities treating
domestic wastewater, records that demonstrate compliance with the applicable pathogen reduction
and vector attraction reduction alternatives be maintained for each haul/land application event. Note
that Brunswick County's Hood Creek (Northwest) WTP is exempt from this requirement because the
residuals are generated from the treatment of potable water.
♦ Footnotes a and b of Attachment B require submission of updated buffer maps and completed
Watershed Classification Attachment for Residuals (FORM: RWSCA 02/02) within 90 days of this
permit issuance.
If any parts, requirements, and/or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have
the right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this
permit. This request shall be in the from of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of the North
Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings at 6714 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final
and binding.
If you need any additional information concerning this matter,
telephone at [phone], or via e-mail at jaya.joshi @ncmail.net.

9. An acceptable pH shall be maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0,
on all land application sites onto which residuals are land applied to ensure optimum yield for
the crops specified in Condition 11. 13. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH
best suited for the specified crop and the soil type.
10. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facilities listed in the
most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high
sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of five or higher), the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP)
or other method as approved by the Division, using the results from the annual soils analysis
as required by this permit, shall be monitored on all of the land application sites. The local
Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the
Natural Resource Conservation Service, a North Carolina -licensed Soil Scientist, or other
agronomist shall review the results and make recommendations regarding soil amendments
(e.g., gypsum, etc.) or other ameliorative mechanism for maintaining the integrity of the site in
terms of suitability for land application of residuals and maintaining conditions conducive to
crop growth. The Permittee shall implement such recommendations accordingly and shall
maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered
and rate of soil amendment application.
M

it. Prior to land applying residuals to any land application site that has previously received or is
intended to receive animal waste (e -g., poultry litter, etc.) or other source of nutrients (e.g.,
fertilizer, etc.) in the future, the Permittee shall obtain information pertaining to the volume
and analysis of the applied waste/nutrients from the landowner and/or lessee/operator of the
site. The Permittee shall be responsible for verifying the volume of residuals that may be land
applied to the site such that the plant available nitrogen (PAN) loading rate for the specified
crop (i.e., see Condition 11. 13.) shall not be exceeded by all of the sources of PAN applied.
Should the maximum PAN loading rate be met or exceeded, then no additional residuals shall
be land applied to the site.
12. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition 11. 13., shall be maintained on land
application sites onto which residuals are land applied in accordance with the crop
management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other
agronomist and as approved by the Division.
13. Residuals and other sources of PAN shall be land applied to all land application sites at
agronomic rates in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local
Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer
Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. Under no
circumstances shall the following PAN loading rates land applied to any site exceed the
following for the specified crops:
The Permittee shall apply for and receive a modification of this permit before land applying
residuals on any land application site that is to be established in a crop other than those listed
above. A maximum PAN loading rate for the desired crop shall be approved with the pen -nit
modification.
If the land application sites are to be overseeded (e.g., bermuda grass in the summer and rye
grass in the winter with BOTH crops to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive
an application of PAN at a rate of no greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. This practice
shall 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 residuals shall be land
applied to these sites because the PAN will essentially be returned to the soil.

IV. GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
Land Application Site Requirements:
a. Each land application site identified with a GW -A in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
greater than three feet below the land surface. Residuals land application events may
occur on these sites throughout the year.
b. Each land application site identified with a GW -B in the most recently -certified
Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table
between one and three feet below the land surface. Residual land application events on
these sites shall be prohibited from December through March, inclusive. No residuals
shall be land applied to these sites when the vertical separation between the depth of
residuals land application and the water table is less than three feet. The actual water
table depth for seasonally -restricted soils shall be verified by soil borings within 24 hours
prior to any residuals land application event that occurs from. April through November,
inclusive. The number of borings advanced shall be sufficient to characterize water table
conditions across the land application site adequately. Any open borings shall be properly
filled with native soil, prior to the residuals land application event, to decrease the chance
of any residuals contaminating the groundwater.

the residuals land application area or 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is
closest to the residuals land application area. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality
Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation
action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(2).
b. The REVIEW BOUNDARY shall be established around each land application site
midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the residuals land
application. area. Any exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at the Review
Boundary shall require action in accordance with 15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(2).
Additional Requirements:
a. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall be
provided.

residuals storage, transport, and application facilities to prevent malfunctions and
deterioration, operator errors, and discharges that 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 or other permitting authority, upon
request.
2. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division may, upon
presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property, premises, or place on or related to
the land application sites or facilities at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining
