This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until February 28, 2006, and shall be subject to the following specified conditions and limitations: I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS I. The Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone number (9I0) 486-1541, and the appropriate local governmental official (county manager/city manager) shall be notified at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the initial application of the residuals to a site so that an; inspection can be made of the application sites and application method. 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. In addition, the Moore and Hoke County Manager's office must be notified prior to the initial application so that they will be aware that the operation has commenced. 2. This permit shall become voidable if the soils fail to adequately assimilate the wastes and may be rescinded unless the sites are maintained and operated in a manner which will protect the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and ground waters. The Iand application program shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of this program. 4. The issuance of this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for damages to surface or groundwaters resulting from the operation of this program. In the event that the land application program is not operated satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall cease applying residuals to the sites, contact the Fayetteville Regional Office. and take any immediate corrective actions as may be required by the Division of Water Quality (Division). 6. Some of the buffers specified below may not have been included in previous permits for this land application operation. However, any sites or fields that are included in this permit, but were approved with different applicable buffers shall be reflagged to comply with the below buffers. The following buffer zones shall be maintained: a. 400 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for surface application method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and approval from the appropriate regional office, b. 200 feet from residences or places of public assembly under separate ownership for subsurface residual injection method; however, the buffer zone requirement may be reduced to a minimum of 100 feet upon written consent of the owner and the appropriate regional office, c. 100 feet from any public or private water supply source, waters classified as SA or SB, and any Class I or Class 11: impounded reservoir used as a source of drinking water for both methods, d. 100 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for surface application, e. 50 feet from any streams classified as WS or B, any other stream, canal, marsh or coastal waters and any other lake or impoundment for subsurface application, f_ 50 feet from property lines for both surface and subsurface application methods; g. 50 feet from public right of ways for both application methods, h. 10 feet from upslope interceptor drains and surface water diversions for both application methods, i. 25 feet from downslope interceptor drains, surface water diversions, groundwater drainage systems and surface drainage ditches for both application methods. 7. A copy of this permit shall be maintained at the land application site when residuals are being applied during the life of this permit. A spill prevention and control plan shall be maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles_ Specific residual application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each site prior to and during application. No residuals at anv time shall be stored at any application site, unless approval has been requested and obtained from the Division. 10. 'Maximum slope for residual application shall be 10% for surface application and 18% for subsurface applications. 1I. When wastewater residuals are applied, the Class A pathogen requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(a) or the Class B pathogen requirements and site restrictions in 40 CFR Part 503.32(b), and one of vector attraction reduction requirements in 40 CFR Part 503.33 shall be met. Additionally, an evaluation must be performed which demonstrates the residuals ability to comply with this requirement. Upon request, a copy of this evaluation must be submitted including all test results and calculations. II. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS The facilities and application sites shall be properly maintained and operated at all times. 2. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition II. 4., shall be maintained in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist, and approved by this Division. 3. An acceptable pH must be maintained in the soil, residual and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on all land application sites to insure optimum yield for the crop(s) specified in Condition 11. 4. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the specified crop and the soil type. 4. The application rates shall not exceed the following for the specified crops: Crop _ PAN (lb./acre/vr.) Crop PAN (lb./acre/yr.)

This practice will 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 wastewater residuals shall be applied to these fields because the nitrogen will essentially be returned to the soil. 5_ Prior to land application to any field that previously has or will receive animal waste, the Permittee shall obtain information from the owner/operator of the field regarding the volume and analysis of the waste applied. This information shall be tracked so that verification can be made as to the amount of residuals that may be applied to achieve the appropriate agronomic rate of nutrients. If the maximum agronomic rate of nutrients have been applied to the field, no additional residuals shall be applied. All animal waste that is applied to the field shall be included in the Permittee's annual report to ensure proper agrononc application of nutrients (i.e., see Condition III. 2.). 6.

The operator must hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the land application program by the WPCSOCC. The Perrrl ttee must also employ a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to comply with the conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0202. 10. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any disposed or stored residuals into any surface waters. 11. Surface applied residuals will be plowed or disced within twenty-four (24) hours after application on lands with no cover crop established. I2. For areas that are prone to flooding or within the 100-year flood elevation, residuals may be applied only during periods of dry weather. The residuals must be incorporated into the soil within twenty-four ZIJ (24) hours after application. 13. Appropriate measures must be taken to control public access to the land application sites during active site use and for the 12-month period following the last residual application event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the activities being conducted at each site. 14. Adequate provisions shall be taken to prevent wind erosion and surface runoff from conveying pollutants from the residuals application area onto the adjacent property or into any surface waters. 15. ResiduaIs shall not be applied in inclement weather or until 24 hours following a rainfall event of 0.5 inch or greater in 24 hours. Any emergency residuals disposal measures must first be approved by the Division. 16. Residuals shall not be applied to any land application site that is flooded, frozen or snow-covered. 17. Residuals shall not be applied at rates greater than agronomic rates, unless authorized by the Division. 18. Animals shall not be grazed on an application site for 30 days after residuals application. Application sites that are to be used for grazing shall have fencing that will be used to prevent access after each application. 19. Food crops, feed crops and fiber crops that do not come in contact with the residuals shall not be harvested for 30 days after residuals application. 20. Food crops with harvested parts that touch the residual/soil mixture and are totally above the land surface (ex. tobacco, melons, cucumbers, squash, etc.) shall not be harvested for 14 months after residuals application. 21. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (root crops such as potatoes, carrots, radishes, etc.) shall not be harvested for 20 months after application of residuals when the residuals remain on the land surface for four (4) months or longer prior to incorporation into the soil. 22. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land shall not be harvested for 38 months after application of residuals when the residuals remain on the land surface for less than four (4) months prior to incorporation into the soil. 23. Turf shall not be harvested for one year after residuals application if the turf is to be placed on land with a high potential for public exposure. III. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS Any monitoring (including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses) deemed necessary by the Division to insure protection of the environment will be established and an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed. 2. Proper records shall be maintained by the Permittee tracking all application activities. These records shall include, but are not necessarily limited to the following information: a. source of residuals b, date of residual application c_ location of residual application (site, field, or zone #) _ d. method of application e_ weather conditions (sunny, cloudy, raining, etc.) f. soil conditions Cr. type of crop or crops to be grown on field h. volume of residuals applied in gallons/acre, dry tons/acre or kilograms/hectare i. annual and cumulative totals of dry tons/acre of residuals, annual and cumulative pounds/acre of each heavy metal (which shall include, but not be limited to arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, selenium and zinc), annual pounds/acre of plant available nitrogen (PAN)., and annual pounds/acre of phosphorus applied to each field. 3.

Chemical Process - small mean a wastewater pollution control system process consisting exclusively of the addition of chemicals to treat wastewater. Collection System - shall mean a continuous connections of pipelines, conduits, pumping stations, and other related constructions used to conduct wastewater to the water pollution control system. Electrodialysis System - shall mean a system utlizing a selective separation of dissolved solids process that is based on electrical charge and diffusion through a semipermeable membrane. Physical Process - shall mean any water pollution control system process consisting of electrodialysis, adsorption, absorption, air stripping, gravimetric sedimentation, floation, and filtration as a means of treatment. Reverse Osmosis System - shall mean a system which utilizes solutions and semipermable membranes to separate and treat wastewater. Ultrafiltration System - shall mean a system which utilizes a membrane filter to remove pollutants from wastewater. Water Pollution Control System - shall mean any system for the collection, treatment, or disposal of wastewater and is classified under the provision of G.S. 90A-37.
