Land Application of Residuals from the
Treatment of Wastewater
Rockingham County
Dear Ms. Lemons:
In accordance with your application received on May 28, 1999 and the additional information received
January 29, 2000, February 2, 2000, and February 7, 2000, we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0002617, .
dated February 11, 2000, to the Town of Stoneville for the operation of a land application program for residuals
generated from the treatment of wastewater_
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2005, shall. void Permit No.
WQ0002617 issued December 16, 1994, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations ag-specified,therein.
Please take time to review this permit thoroughly. Of special interest are the following provisions:
♦ General: The land application program description has been amended to reflect a reduction in acreage
(i.e., from 86.2 net acres to 71.55 net acres), due to the fact that the Arnold Johnson sites (i.e., Site Nos.
1-7, 1-8, and 1-9) have not been renewed in this permit.
♦ Condition 11. 6.: Because of changes to the federal requirements, chromium has been eliminated from
the list of metals whose loadings must be monitored on a cumulative basis. `
♦ Condition H. 7.: Because of changes to the federal requirements, chromium has been eliminated from
the list of metals that must be monitored to ensure that ceiling concentrations are not exceeded.
♦ Condition II. 8.: This condition has been amended to reflect the adoption of new rules by the Water
Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). The referenced
regulation is now 15A NCAC 8G .0202.
♦ Condition III. 4.: Because of changes to the federal requirements, chromium has been eliminated from
the Iist of residuals parameters that must be monitored on an annual basis.
♦ Condition III. 6.: This condition has been amended to reflect that the Division will not entertain
requests from the Permittee to reduce monitoring frequency to determine compliance with pathogen
reduction and vector attraction reduction requirements.
♦ Condition M. 8.: This condition has been amended to reflect the new mailing address to be used when
submitting all monitoring and reporting information.
1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone [phone] Fax [phone]
An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper

Condition IV. I.: This condition specifies that no residuals application shall take place when the
vertical separation between the waste and the seasonal high water table is less than three feet.
♦ Condition VI. 4.: This condition has been amended to reflect that the Arnold Johnson sites (i.e., Site
Nos. I-7, 1-8, and 1-9) have not been renewed to receive residuals under the Town's land application
program. In addition, a reduced buffer from a residence under separate ownership has been approved
for Site No. ST1-1. The new buffer is established in this condition.
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 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, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-6714.
Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding.
If you need additional information concerning this matter, p e contact hannon Mohr Thornburg at

systems, and surface drainage ditches for both surface and subsurface application methods.
6. A copy of this permit shall be maintained in all manned equipment 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.
Specific residual application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each site prior to and during
application.
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 percent for surface application and 18 percent for
subsurface applications.
10. When wastewater treatment residuals are applied, the Class A pathogen requirements and site
restrictions in 40 CFR Part 50332(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.
II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
The facilities and application sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times.
2. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition U. 4., shall be maintained in accordance with the

crop in the fall, with BOTH crops to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive an
application of nutrients at a rate of no greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. 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 residuals shall be applied to these fields because
the nitrogen will essentially be returned to the soil.

Site Buffer Explanation
- Buffers for the land owner's residence and
a surface runoff area are to the West.
Buffers to the South are for surface runoff
areas and a stream. Buffers to the East are
for the property line. The reduced buffer
for the residence does not extend past the
property line buffer.
2 - Property line buffer to the East.
3 - Two areas on the Western side of the field
are buffered for surface runoff.
4 - A property line buffer is required
in the South East corner.
5 - A buffer for the farm pond is needed to the
West, and the stream, well, and owner's
residence comprise a buffer that covers the
Southern portion of this site.
Note: House l indicates the owner's residence.
House 2 has sinned a buffer reduction.
