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.
2. Applicable Boundary Requirements:
a. 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. 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 Iand 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.
V. INSPECTIONS
Prior to each residuals land application event, the Permittee or his designee shall inspect the 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
