a The soil zone number listed in this table corresponds to those zones identified by the North
Carolina -licensed professional soil scientist in the May 2001 report entitled "Soil/Site
Evaluation for Establishment and Management of a Reuse Irrigation System for the City of
Goldsboro WWTP in Wayne County, North Carolina."
b The sprinkler identification system listed in this table identifies the location of any individual
sprinkler within the spray irrigation site. The number before the hyphen corresponds to the
irrigation zone (i.e., 16 total) as shown in the approved plans. The letter after the hyphen
corresponds to the location of each of the four sprinklers within the specific irrigation zone.
The letter is assigned consecutively to the sprinkler is a direction from east to west and north
to south across the zone. For example, Sprinkler No. 8-a is the northernmost and easternmost
sprinkler in Irrigation Zone No. 8, while Sprinkler No. 8-d is the southernmost and
westernmost sprinkler in Irrigation Zone No. 8. Each sprinkler or irrigation zone shall be
individually calibrated such that it does not cause the exceedance of the stipulated maximum
cumulative and instantaneous application rates for the most -restrictive soil zone that it
impacts (i.e., some sprinklers may impact area in more than one soil zone).
The cumulative application rate shall be equivalent to the loading of reclaimed water over
any 12-month period.
d These sprinklers impact wetted areas in both Soil Zone No. 2 and Soil Zone No. 3. Either the
individual sprinkler or the irrigation zone as a whole shall be calibrated to irrigate reclaimed
water at Soil Zone No. 2 rates even though a portion of the wetted area is in Soil Zone No. 3.
e The wetted areas of these sprinklers shall be adjusted such that they do not impact any area
that has been delineated as being within Soil Zone No. 1.

problems associated with the treatment capability of the wastewater treatment plant have been
corrected.
11. The Permittee shall implement adequate measures to prevent reclaimed water runoff from the
irrigation sites, with the exception of known storm drainage grates within the Goldsboro
Municipal Golf Course that outlet to the stormwater drainage ditch.
12. The Permittee shall implement adequate measures to mitigate drift of airborne reclaimed water
from the "Farm" site during active use. Of special concern is the potential for drift from the site
to impact vehicular traffic along Dixie Trail and Westbrook Road. Therefore, the Permittee shall
take the following steps:
a. Install wind direction and velocity meters at the Goldsboro Water Reclamation Facility. The
information gathered from these meters shall be correlated with the observations/complaints
of airborne reclaimed water drift. The resultant data shall be used to establish a standard
operating procedure with respect to zone use and periods of irrigation.
Should the above steps fail to mitigate any airborne reclaimed water drift problem identified by
the Permittee or the Division, one or more of the following additional steps shall be implemented
to further mitigate or eliminate this problem:
a. Adjust sprinklers in those irrigation zones closest to Dixie Trail and Westbrook Road to
reduce their throw diameters.
