WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shell Version 090204 Page 4 of 14

Specific residuals land application area boundaries shall be clearly marked on each land application
site prior to and during a residuals land application event.
9. Residuals and other sources of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) shall be land applied to all land
application sites at or below agronomic rates. Appropriate agronomic rates shall be calculated using
expected nitrogen requirements based on the Realistic Yield Expectations (RYE) for each approved
land application site. Realistic Yield Expectations for crop types and specific fields or soils types
shall be determined by using any of the following methods:
a. North Carolina Historical Data for specific crop and soil types as provided by North Carolina
State University Department of Soil Science. The Department webpage is located at:
http-//nutrients.soil.nesu.edu/yields/
b. Site Specific Historical Data for crop types on specific fields or soil types by calculating the
mean of the best three yields of the last five consecutive crop harvests for each field.
C. If the RYE cannot be determined using methods 9(a) or (b) above, RYE can be established
from specially developed soil interpretation records for Nutrient Management Planning, Farm
Service Agency Records, university trials, or inference from crop performance on soil with
very similar physical and chemical features.
d. Realistic Yields Expectations and acceptable nitrogen application rates that use the above
methodology are required parts of many agricultural planning documents. The Permittee may
use the RYE and appropriate agronomic rates reported in any of the following documents:
i. Crop management plan as outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource
Conservation Service, or other agronomist.
ii. Waste Utilization Plan as outlined by Senate Bill 1217 Interagency Group- Guidance
Document: Chapter 1. Guidance for the completion of the plan can be found at:
http://www.enr.state.ne.us/DSWC/ a esl idance docs.html.
iii. Certified Nutrient Management Plan as outlined by Natural Resources Conservation
Services (NRCS). These plans must meet the USDA-NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
Standards, which are available at:
ft ://ft-fe.se.egov.usda. ov/NH / ractice-standards/standards/590, df.
e. For any crop type for which the RYE and appropriate nitrogen application rate cannot be
determined, the Permittee shall contact the Division to determine necessary action.
10. If the land application sites are to be overseeded or doublecropped (e.g., bermuda grass in the
summer and rye grass in the winter with BOTH crops to receive residuals or corn and small grain
both to receive residuals), then the second crop shall receive an application of PAN at a rate of no
greater than 50 pounds per acre per year. This practice shall 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 residuals shall be land applied to these sites because the PAN will essentially be
returned to the soil.
Prior to application of PAN to permitted sites at rates exceeding the agronomic rate, the Permittee
must submit and receive approval by the Division.
WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shell Version 090204 Page 5 of 14

11. Should any of the residuals generated by the residuals source -generating facilities listed in the most
recently -certified Attachment A of this permit contain a high salt content (i.e., high sodium
adsorption ratio (SAR) of ten (10) or higher), the Permittee shall obtain and implement
recommendations from the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, a North Carolina -licensed Soil
Scientist, or other agronomist regarding sodium application rate, soil amendments (e.g., gypsum.,
etc.) or other ameliorative mechanism for maintaining the integrity of the site in terms of suitability
for land application of residuals and maintaining conditions conducive to crop growth. The
Permittee shall maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites
covered and rate of soil amendment application.
12. 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. Per 15A NCAC 2T .0105(h), upon the request by the Permittee the Compliance
Boundary may be located closer to the waste disposal area (provided the groundwater standards can
be met at the newly established Compliance Boundary). Any approved relocation of the
COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY will be noted in the most recently -certified Attachment B of this
permit. An exceedance of Groundwater Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject
to remediation action according to 15A NCAC 2L .0106(d)(2) as well as enforcement actions in
accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A through 143-215.6C.
13. The REVIEW BOUNDARY shall be established around each land application site midway between
the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the residuals land application area. Any exceedance
of Groundwater Quality Standards at the Review Boundary shall require action in accordance with
15A NCAC 2L .0106 (d)(1).
14. The appropriate local governmental official (i.e., county manager, city manager, etc.) shall be
notified at least 24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event to any new land
application site. In addition, the appropriate county manager's office shall be notified prior to the
initial residuals land application event on any new site so that they will be aware that residuals land
application activities have commenced on the site.
15. The Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division's regional office shall be notified at Ieast
24 hours prior to the initial residuals land application event on any new land application site. Such
notification to the Regional Aquifer Protection Supervisor shall be made during normal office hours
(i.e., from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.) between Monday and Friday, but excluding State Holidays. A
list of the Division's regional offices, their county coverage, and their contact information may be
downloaded from the web site at http;//www.enr.state.nc.us/html/regionaloffices.html.
III. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE_ REOUI REMENTS
1. The residuals land application program shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times as a
non -discharge system to prevent the discharge of any wastes resulting from the operation of this
program.
WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shell Version 090204 Page 6 of 14

2. The Permittee shall maintain an approved Operation and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan) pursuant to
15A NCAC 02T .l 110 including operational functions, maintenance schedules, inspection plan,
sampling and monitoring plan, safety treasures, and a spill response plan. The inspection portion of
the plan shall include the following information:
a. Names of personal responsible for conducting the inspections
b. Description of inspection plan describing how the frequency of inspections and location of
inspections are determined to assure that inspections are representative of land application
program.
c. Description of record keeping requirements meeting requirements of permit Conditions IV.9,
d. Description of required actions meeting the requirements of permit Condition TV. 1 l to be taken
by the inspector in the event that noncompliance is observed during an inspection.
The sampling and monitoring portion of the plan shall include the following information:
e. Names and position of personnel responsible for conducting the sampling and monitoring;
f. Required sampling frequency specified in Attachment B of the permit;
g. Description of sampling and monitoring procedures to gather representative sampling for each
sampling period. Note that fluctuation in temperature, flow, and other operating conditions can
affect the quality of the residuals. The sampling plan must account for any foreseen fluctuations
in compost residuals quality, and indicate sampling times accordingly to ensure compliance
during the most limiting times (e.g. small facilities that apply multiple times per year, but have
an annual sampling frequency may need to sample and document compliance with the pathogen
reduction requirements during winter months when pathogen reduction is most likely to be
negatively affected by cold temperatures).
Any modification to the O&M Plan shall be approved by the Division. The most recent O&M Plan
shall be submitted to the Mooresville Regional Office for review and approval.
In the event that the residuals land application program is not operated satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions due to improper operation and maintenance, the Permittee shall cease
land applying residuals to the site, contact the Aquifer Protection Section of the appropriate Division
of Water Quality's (Division) regional office, and take any immediate corrective actions as may be
required by the Division.
4. Upon classification of the residuals land application program by the Water Pollution Control System
Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC), the Permittee shall designate a certified land
application/residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) of the program. The operator shall
hold a certificate of the type classification assigned to the program by the WPCSOCC. The
Permittee shall also designate a certified back-up operator of the appropriate type to comply with the
conditions of 15A NCAC 8G .0201.
This permit shall become voidable if the soils of the land application sites fail to assimilate the
residuals or the application causes contravention of surface water or groundwater standards and may
be revoked unless the land application sites are maintained and operated in a manner that will protect
the assigned water quality standards of the surface waters and groundwater.
A copy of this permit shall be maintained in all manned equipment at the land application sites when
residuals are being land applied during the life of this permit. The spill prevention and control plan
shall be maintained in all residuals transport and application vehicles.
WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shed Version 090204 Page 7 of 14

7. Adequate provisions shall be taken to prevent wind erosion and surface runoff from conveying
residuals from the land application sites onto adjacent properties or into any surface waters.
Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land applied or
stored residuals into any surface waters.
9. No residuals shall be stored at any land application site at any time, unless written approval has first
been requested and obtained from the Division.
10. Residuals shall not be applied to the land under the following conditions:
a. If the residuals are likely to adversely affect a threatened or endangered species listed under
section 4 of the Endangered Species Act or its designated critical habitat;
b. If the application causes prolonged nuisance conditions;
c. If the land fails to assimilate the bulk residuals or the application causes the contravention of
surface water or groundwater standards;
d. If the land is flooded, frozen, or snow-covered or is otherwise in a condition such that runoff of
the residuals would occur;
e. Within the 100-year flood elevation unless the bulk residuals are injected or incorporated within
a 24-hour period following the residuals land application event;
f. During a measurable precipitation event (i.e., >.01" per hour) or within 24 hours following a
rainfall event of 0.5 inches or greater in a 24-hour period. Any emergency residuals land
application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division;
g. If the slope of the land is greater than 10 percent when bulk liquid residuals are surface applied,
and if the slope of the land is greater than 18 percent when bulk liquid residuals are injected or
incorporated;
h. If the pH is not maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture greater than 6.0, on land
application sites onto which residuals are applied. Residuals may be applied to the sites
provided that sufficient amounts of lime are also applied to achieve a final pH of the soil mixture
of at least 6.0, or if an agronomist provides information indicating that the pH of the soil,
residuals, and lime mixture is suited for the specified crop type. Any approved variations to the
acceptable soil pH (6.0) for land application will be noted in the most recently certified
Attachment B of this permit.
i. If the land does not have an established vegetative cover .in accordance with the crop
management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other
agronomist unless the bulk residuals are incorporated within a 24-hour period following the
residuals land application event or injected (This requirement does not apply to no -till
fields);
j. If the vertical separation of the seasonal high water table and the depth of residuals application is
less than one foot;
k. If the vertical separation of the depth to bedrock and the depth of residuals application is less
than one foot;
11. For land onto which bulk residuals are applied that do not meet the Class A Pathogen Reduction
Requirements (15A NCAC 02T .1106(b)), the following public access restrictions apply:
WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shell Version 090204 Page 8 of 14

Requirements (15A NCAC 02T .1106(b)), the following harvesting and grazing restrictions apply:
a. Animals shall not be allowed to graze on land application sites for 30 days after any residuals
land application event. Sites that are to be used for grazing shall have fencing that will be used
to prevent access after each event;
b. Food crops, feed crops, and fiber crops shall not be harvested for 30 days after any residuals land
application event;
c. Food crops with harvested parts that touch the residual/soil mixture and are totally above the
land surface (e.g., tobacco, melons, cucumbers, squash, etc.) shall not be harvested for 14
months after any residuals land application event;
d. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (i.e., root crops such as potatoes,

13. This permit shall become voidable unless the agreements between the Permittee and the landowners
and lessees or operators of any land application sites listed in the most recently -certified Attachment
B of this permit not owned by the Permittee are in full force and in effect. These agreements shall
be considered expired concurrent with the expiration date of the permit and shall be renewed at the
same time the permit is renewed.
14. Upon entering an agreement with landowners to apply residuals to a land application site, the
Permittee shall require of the landowner or lessee/operator a statement detailing the volume of
nutrient sources (waste residuals, manufactured fertilizers, manures, or other animal waste products)
other than the residuals to be applied by the Permittee, that have been applied to the land, and a copy
of the most recent Nutrient Management Plan (NMP), if available, for the fields within the
agreement. For the purpose of this permit condition, a Crop Management Plan (CMP), Waste
Utilization Plan (WUP) or Certified Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) shall also be
considered a Nutrient Management Plan.
The NMPs must be provided only for those operations where a NMP is required by the US
Department of Agriculture — National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) or other State
Agencies. The Permittee shall rely on the provided information to calculate appropriate reductions
in allowable nutrient loading rates. if the calculation shows that the agronomic rates in the NMP
(including PAN) have already been met or exceeded on a field, no additional residuals shall be land
applied to that field.
WQ0018525 Version 2.2 Shell Version 090204 Page 9 of 14

15. An acceptable pH shall be maintained in the soil, residuals, and lime mixture, greater than 6.0, on all
land application sites onto which residuals are land applied to ensure optimum yield for the crops
specified in Condition 11.9. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the
specified crop and the soil type.
16. Residuals shall not be land applied at rates greater than agronomic rates, unless authorized by the
Division.
IV. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Any monitoring (i.e., including groundwater, surface water, residuals, soil, or plant tissue analyses)
deemed necessary by the Division to ensure protection of the environment shall be established, and
an acceptable sampling and reporting schedule shall be followed.
2. An analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residual source -generating facility
listed in the most recently certified Attachment A of this permit. The analysis shall be performed at
the frequency specified in the most recently certified Attachment A of this permit, and the results
shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of five years. The analysis shall include,

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, the Permittee shall snake up the missed sampling either by taking
additional samples during land application events previous to a planned period of inactivity or by
taking additional samples during land application events immediately following the period of
inactivity. If no land application events occur during a complete calendar year, the Permittee need
not make up the missed sampling events for that year. 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 of additional sampling data intended to
compensate for periods of inactivity, or an explanation for missing sampling data.
