Land Application (503) of Residual Solids
Currituck County
Dear Mr. Hines:
At the request of Mr. Bob Branch of Branch Residuals & Soils, LLC, the Aquifer Protection Section has
obtained clarification of the federal policy regarding the sampling schedule applied to facilities which
apply residuals on an infrequent basis. In accordance with that clarification and its consequent changes to
Permit Condition IV.3. of existing Permit No. WQ0016227, issued on February 14, 2008, we are
forwarding herewith the corrected cover letter, Pages 9 and 10, and Attachment A for this permit.
The following corrections have been made to Pages 9 and 10, and to Attachment A:
Permit Condition IV.3. has been changed to allow the omission of sampling during those years when
residual application does not take place.
2. Attachment A has had its Note changed to clarify the conditionally approved status of the two new
source facilities.
Please replace the cover letter, Pages 9 and 10, and Attachment A with the corrected cover letter,
Pages 9 and 10, and Attachment A into Permit No. WQ0016227, issued February 14, 2008.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact David Goodrich at (919)
715-6162. Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
for Coleen H. Sullins

Land Application (503) of Residual Solids
Currituck County
Dear Mr. Hines:
In accordance with your request to renew and modify the subject permit, received September 4,
2007, and subsequent additional information received September 18, 2007 and September 24, 2007, we
are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0016227, dated February 14, 2008, to Hines' Contractors, Inc. for
the continued operation of the subject land application of residuals solids program. The residual sources
and application areas have been modified according to your application package, and these changes are
reflected in Attachment A and Attachment B.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2013, shall void Permit
No. WQ0016227 issued July 12, 2001, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified
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. Please also note that residuals from the Camden County WWTP
(WQ0029894) and the Harvey Point Defense Testing Activity WWTP (WQ0024003) have been granted
conditional approval but cannot be applied until completed until TCLP and nutrient and metal analyses
are submitted for the Washington Regional Office for review and approval (see Attachment A).
All of the sites onto which the residuals are placed are now considered "dedicated" under 15A
NCAC 02T .1102(12)(c). The applications of residuals onto the sites are not allowed to exceed agronomic
rates (Permit Condition II.9.). Although groundwater quality monitoring is not required under the
conditions of this permit at this time, the Division reserves the right to require its initiation if conditions
warrant such action (Permit Condition IV.1.).
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.
If you need additional information concerning this matter, please contact David Goodrich at (919)
715-6162 or [e-mail].

If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility are insufficient to require a
land application event during a required sampling period as specified in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit (e.g. no land application occurs during an entire year when annual
monitoring is required), no sampling data is required during the period of inactivity. The Permittee
shall submit an annual report, as required in condition IV. 10., even in the event that no land
application events occur during an entire year; the annual report shall include an explanation for
missing sampling data.
4. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most recently -certified
Attachment A of this permit shall be monitored for compliance with Condition II.6. The monitoring
shall be performed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this
permit, and data to verify pathogen and vector attraction reduction of the residuals shall be
maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years, The required data shall be specific
to the stabilization process utilized, but also shall be sufficient to demonstrate clear compliance with
the Class A pathogen reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106 (a) and (b) or the Class B
pathogen reduction requirements in 15A NCAC 02T .1106 (a) and (c), and one vector attraction

Protection Agency (EPA) certification statements concerning compliance with pathogen reduction
requirements, vector attraction reduction requirements, and management practices shall be
completed at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit by
the proper authority or authorities, if more than one is involved (i.e., either the person who prepares
the residuals, the person who derives the material, or the person who applies the residuals). Only
residuals that are generated by the residuals source -generating facilities that are identified as being
exempt from Condition H.6. in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit shall not be
required to comply with this monitoring requirement.
A representative annual soils analysis (i.e., Standard Soil Fertility Analysis) shall be conducted on
each land application site on which a residuals land application event in the respective calendar year
has occurred or is to occur, and the results shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a
minimum of five years. The Standard Soil Fertility Analysis shall include, but is not necessarily
limited to, the following parameters:
Acidity Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (by calculation)
