COMPOST 1 PFRP STABILIZATION PERMIT
In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as
amended, and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County
Buncombe County
FOR THE
operation of a wastewater treatment plant sludge composting/PFRP stabilization facility for the stabilization
of digested and dewatered sludge from the source listed in Condition 11 3, to meet EPA requirements for
the Process to Further Reduce Pathogens, using alkaline stabilization and the N-Viro Process, consisting
of dual live bottom hoppers arranged to receive dump truck loads of dewatered sludge, dual mixing
blenders which are fed by screw conveyors from the live bottom hoppers and two 12 foot diameter
limekiln dust silos, dual incline conveyors serving two curing bins measuring approximately 29 feet by 50
feet by 10 feet deep (each with a shuttle conveyor), a 275 foot by 150 foot concrete pad wind row area, a
series of leachate trench and collection drains that flow back to the wastewater treatment plant, a truck
loading conveyor, a 327 foot by 150 foot building enclosing these facilities, a ventilation system using
large wall fans and large roll up doors, and all associated piping, controls, equipment, and appurtenances
to serve the Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County with no discharge of wastes to the
surface waters, pursuant to the application received October 27, 1992, and in conformity with the project
plan, specifications, and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of
Environment, Health and Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until November 30, 1997, and shall be
subject to the following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. Upon completion of construction and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a
certification must be received from a professional engineer certifying that the permitted
facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and
specifications. Mail the Certification to the Permits and Engineering Unit, P.O. Box
29535, Raleigh, NC 27626-0535.
2. The Asheville Regional Office, phone no. 704/ 251-6208 shall be notified at least forty-
eight (48) hours in advance of operation of the installed facilities so that an in-place
inspection can be made. Such notification to the regional supervisor shall be made during
the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday,
excluding State Holidays.
3. This permit shall become voidable in the event of failure of the sludge composting/PFRP
stabilization facility to adequately protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface
waters and groundwaters.
4. The sludge composting/PFRP stabilization program shall be effectively maintained and
operated as a non -discharge system to prevent discharge of any wastes resulting from the
operation of this program.
5. The issuance of this pen -nit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages
to surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation of this facility.
6. In the event that the sludge composting/PFRP stabilization program is not operated
satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take such
immediate corrective action as may be required by this Department, including the
construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities.
7. Diversion or bypassing of the untreated sludge or compost drainage wastewater from the
compost facilities is prohibited.
8. Composting/PFRP stabilization sludge should not be used in areas of intense public use
(schools, playgrounds, etc.).
II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The facilities and disposal sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times.
2. The sludge composting/PFRP stabilization operation must be conducted under the
supervision of the certified wastewater treatment plant operator required by the Certification
Commission for operation of the Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County
Wastewater Treatment Plant, NPDES Permit No. NCO024911.
3. No sludges other than the following are hereby approved for composting in accordance
with this permit:
Permit
Source County Number
Metropolitan Sewerage Buncombe NCO024911
District of Buncombe
County
4. All compost/PFRP stabilization sludge shall be stored on the concrete composting/wind
row pad during composting and until such time as it is distributed to the buyer. If an
alternate storage site is to be used, approval must be obtained from the Division of
Environmental Management.
PA
5. No compost shall be marketed that does not meet the criteria for the Process to Further
Reduce Pathogens, which for:
Lime Stabilization - Sufficient lime is added to produce and maintain a pH of 12 for 2
hours.
N-Viro Process- Advanced alkaline stabilization with subsequent accelerated drying.
Alternative 1; Fine alkaline materials (cement kiln dust, lime kiln dust,
quicklime fines, pulverized lime, or hydrated lime) are uniformly
mixed by mechanical or aeration mixing into liquid or dewatered
sludge to raise the pH to greater than 12 for 7 days. If the resulting
sludge is liquid, it is dewatered. The stabilized sludge cake is then
air dried (while pH remains above 12 for at least 7 days) for at least
30 days and until the cake is at least 65% solids. A solids
concentration of at least 60% is achieved before the pH drops below
12. The mean temperature of the air surrounding the pile is above 5
degrees C (41 degrees F) for the first 7 days.
Alternative 2; Fine alkaline materials (cement kiln dust, lime kiln dust,
quicklime fines, pulverized lime, or hydrated lime) are uniformly
mixed by mechanical or aeration mixing into liquid or dewatered
sludge to raise the pH to greater than 12 for at least 72 hours. If the
resulting sludge is liquid, it is dewatered.The sludge cake is then
heated, while the pH exceeds 12, using exothermic reactions or
other thermal processes to achieve temperatures of at least 52
degrees C (126 degrees F) throughout the sludge for at least 12
hours. The stabilized sludge is then air dried (while pH remains
above 12 for at least 3 days) to at least 50% solids.
The use of any other composting method shall require a permit amendment prior to the
distribution of any such compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge.
III. MOINITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
1. Any monitoring (including groundwater, surface water, sludge, soil, or plant tissue
analyses) deemed necessary by the Division of Environmental Management to insure
protection of the environment will be established and an acceptable sampling and reporting
schedule shall be followed.
2. The Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County shall maintain records including,
but not limited to the following:
a. volume, source, and analysis of sludge and compost
b. date, duration and temperature during composting
c. name of compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge recipient, volume received, and
intended use

Buncombe County to the following address:
NC Division of Environmental Management
Water Quality Section
Facility Assessment Unit
PO Box 29535
Raleigh, NC 27626-0535
3. The Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County shall present to each recipient of
compost written information that clearly states that compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge cannot
be used on areas where root or leaf crops for direct human consumption are to be grown
within one (1) year of the last application of compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge to the site.
The Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County shall also include written
recommendations to the compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge recipients for satisfactory uses of
compost/ PFRP stabilized sludge material such as horticulture, silvicultural, other
agricultural uses not specifically prohibited, etc.

251-6208, as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours or on the next working
day following the occurrence or fust knowledge of the occurrence of any of the following:
a. Any occurrence with the composting program which results in the composting of
significant amounts of wastes which are abnormal in quantity or characteristic.
b. Any failure of the composting/ PFRP stabilized sludge program resulting in a

C. Any time that self-monitoring information indicates that the facility has gone out of
compliance with the conditions and limitations of this permit or the parameters on
which the system was designed.
d. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the facility
incapable of adequate sludge treatment.
e. Any leakage or spillage that occurs during the transfer or transport of the compost/
