This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until March 31, 2013, shall void Permit No. WQ0004335 issued June 8, 2001, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified Am, therein. Please 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. The permit application requested that the Tommy Shingleton fields be included in the permit for distribution of Class "B" residuals in the event the permitted residuals do not meet the Class A standards for distribution and marketing. If the Town wishes to maintain a Class B residuals permit, a separate permit application request must be made, and the Town must maintain two separate permits for managing the two residual programs. 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 the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding. Please note that on September 1, 2006 State Administrative Code 15A NCAC Subchapter 02T — Waste not Discharged to Surface Water was adopted. This permit incorporates the requirement of these rules. Remember to take the time to review this permit thoroughly, as some of the conditions contained therein may have been added, changed, or deleted from those in previously issued permits Please note that "bulk residuals" shall mean residuals that are transported and not sold or given away in a bag, bucket, bin, box, carton, vehicle, trailer, tanker, or an open or closed receptacle with a load capacity of 1.102 short tons or one metric ton or less.

The permittee is responsible for the geographic accuracy of any map submitted, however produced WQ0004335 Version 2.0 Shell Version 071105 Page 1 of 10 II. 2. No later than six months prior to the expiration of this permit, the Permittee shall request renewal of this permit on official Division Porn s. Upon receipt of the request, the Division 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. Please note that Rule 15A NCAC 02T .0105(d) requires an updated site map to be submitted with the pen -nit renewal application. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to surface waters or groundwater resulting from the operation of this Class A residuals distribution and land application program. 2. No residuals other than those generated by the residuals source -generating facilities listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit shall be approved for distribution or land application in accordance with this permit. The pollutant concentrations in any residuals that are distributed or land applied to any land application site shall not shall not exceed the following Ceiling and Monthly Average Concentrations (i.e., dry weight basis) Parameter Monthly Average Concentration m Ceiling Concentration (mfg) Arsenic 41 75 Cadmium 39 85 Copper 1,500 4,300 Lead 300 840 Mercury 17 57 Molybdenum n/a 75 Nickel 420 420 Selenium 100 100 Zinc 2,800 7,500 4. When residuals are distributed or land applied under the conditions of this permit, the Class A pathogen requirements and site restrictions in 15A NCAC 02T .1106 (a) and (b), and one vector attraction reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1107 (a) shall be met. Additionally, an evaluation shall be performed that demonstrates the residuals' ability to comply with this requirement. Upon request, a copy of this evaluation, including all test results and calculations, shall be submitted. Only residuals that are generated by the residuals source -generating facilities that are identified as being exempt from this condition in the most recently -certified Attachment A shall not be required to comply with the specified pathogen reduction and vector attraction reduction requirements. 5. For residuals treatment and storage facilities, the following minimum setbacks shall be maintained (all distances in feet): i. Any habitable residence or place of public assembly under separate ownership: 100 ii. Any property line: 50 iii. Any private or public water supply source: 100 iv. Surface waters: 50 v. Any well with exception of monitoring wells: 100 WQ0004335 Version 2.0 Shell Version 071105 Page 2 of 10 6. When land applying bulk clasp A residuals to any land application site, the following setbacks shall be maintained (all distances in deet): Liquid Cake i. Any private or public water supply source: 100 100 ii. Surface waters: 100 25 iii. Surface water diversions: 25 0 iv. Groundwater lowering ditches: 25 0 v. Any well with exception of monitoring wells: 100 100 vi. Bedrock outcrops: 25 0 Unless others noted in Attachment A of this permit, "cake" residuals are residuals that have greater than 15% solids by weight and can be stacked without flowing, and handled, transported and spread as a solid (i.e., using a backhoe, front end loader, slinger spreader, broadcast spreader or other equipment designed for handling solid materials) without leaving any significant liquid fraction behind. 7. Specific residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land application site prior to and during a bulk residuals land application event. 8. Bulk residuals and other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) shall be land applied to all land application sites at or below agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using expected nitrogen requirements based on the Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) for each approved land application site. Realistic Yield Expectations for crop types and specific fields or soils types shall be determined by using any of the following methods: a. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as provided by North Carolina State University Department of Soil Science. The Department webpage is located at: htt-D://www.soil.nesu.edu/nmp/ncnmwglyield b. Site Specific Historical Data for crop types on specific fields or soil types by calculating the mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field. c. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods 8(a) or (b) above, RYE can be established from specially developed soil interpretation records for Nutrient Management Planning, Farm Service Agency Records, university trials, or inference from crop performance on soil with very similar physical and chemical features. d. Realistic Yields Expectations and acceptable nitrogen application rates that use the above methodology are required parts of many agricultural planning documents. The Permittee may use the RYE and appropriate agronomic rates reported in any of the following documents: i. Crop management plan as outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group- Guidance Document: Chapter 1. Guidance for the completion of the plan can be found at: h=://www.enr.state.nc.us/DSWC/pages/jzuidance docs.html. iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management Standards, which are available at: ftp://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda. gov/NHO/Practice-standards/standards/590.pdf WQ0004335 Version 2.0 Shell Version 071105 Page 3 of 10 e. For any crop type for which the RYE and appropriate nitrogen application rate cannot be determined, the Permittee shall contact the Division to determine necessary action. 9. 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. Prior to application of PAN to permitted sites at rates exceeding the agronomic rate, the Permittee must submit and receive approval by the Division. 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 ten (10) or higher), the Permittee shall obtain and implement recommendations from 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 regarding sodium application rate, 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 maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and rate of soil amendment application. 11. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for residuals land application programs is specified by regulations in 15A NCAC 2L (i.e., "Groundwater Classifications and Standards"). The Compliance Boundary for each land application site is established at either 250 feet from the residuals land application area or 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the residuals land application area. Per 15A NCAC 2T .0105(h), upon the request by the Permittee the Compliance Boundary may be located closer to the waste disposal area (provided the groundwater standards can be met at the newly established Compliance Boundary). Any approved relocation of the COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY will be noted in the most recently -certified Attachment B of this permit. An exceedance of Groundwater Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to remediation action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C. 12. 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)(1). 13. The appropriate local governmental official (i.e., county manager, city manager, etc.) shall be notified at least 24 hours prior to the initial bulk residuals land application event to any new land application site. In addition, the appropriate county manager's office shall be notified prior to the initial residuals land application event on any new site so that they will be aware that residuals land application activities have commenced on the site. 14. The Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office shall be notified at least 24 hours prior to the initial bulk residuals land application event on any new land application site. Such notification to the Regional Aquifer Protection Supervisor shall be made during normal office hours (i.e., from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.) between Monday and Friday, but excluding State Holidays. A list of the Division's regional offices, their county coverage, and their contact information may be downloaded from the web site at hM://www.enr.state.ne.us/html/regionaloffices.html. .

A statement that the residuals shall be applied at agronomic rates and recommended rates for intended uses. WQ0004335 Version 2.0 Shell Version 071105 Page 5 of 10 10. Bulk residuals shall not be applied to the land undc r the following conditions: a. If the residuals are likely to adversely, affect a threatened or endangered species listed under section 4 of the Endangered Species or its designated critical habitat; b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions; c. If the land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of surface water or groundwater standards. d. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of the residuals would occur; e. Within the 100 -year flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event; f. During a measurable precipitation event (i.e., >.01" per hour) or within 24 hours following a rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division; g. If the slope for land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied, and if the slope of the land is greater then 18 percent with bulk liquid residuals are injected or incorporated; h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on land application sites onto which residuals are applied. Residuals may be applied to the sites provided that sufficient amounts of lime is also applied to achieve a final pH of the soil mixture of at least 6.0, or if an agronomist provides information indicating that the pH of the soil, residuals, and lime mixture is suited for the specified crop type. Any approved variations to the acceptable soil pH (6.0) for land application will be noted in the most recently certified Attachment B of this permit. i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover 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 unless the bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event or injected; j. If the vertical separation of the seasonal high water table and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less than one foot; 11. This permit shall become voidable unless the agreements between the Permittee and the landowners and lessees or operators of any land application sites not owned by the Permittee are in full force and effect. These agreements shall be considered expired concurrent with the expiration date of the permit and shall be renewed at the same time the permit is renewed. 12. For fields receiving bulk residuals, the Permittee shall request of the landowner or lessee/operator a statement detailing the volume of nutrient sources (waste residuals, manufactured fertilizers, manures, or other animal waste products) other than the residuals to be applied by the Permittee, that have been applied to the land, and a copy of the most recent Nutrient Management Plan (NMP), if available. For the purpose of this permit condition, a Crop Management Plan (CMP), Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) or Certified Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) shall also be considered a Nutrient Management Plan The NMPs must be provided only for those operations where a NMP (also CMP, WUP, or CNMP) is required by the US Department of Agriculture — National Resources Conservation Service (MRCS) or other State Agencies. The Permittee shall rely on the provided information to calculate appropriate reductions in allowable nutrient loading rates. If the calculation shows that the agronomic rates (including PAN) have already been met or exceeded on a field, no additional residuals shall be land applied to that field. WQ0004335 Version 2.0 Shell Version 071105 Page 6 of 10 13. For fields receiving bulk residuals. the Permittee shall supply the landowner with documentation specifying that land application of the bulk residuals shall occur consistent with Condition 11.6. and Condition III.3 of this permit. IV. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 1. Any monitoring (i.e., including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses) deemed necessary by the Division to ensure protection of the environment shall be established, and an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed.
