DON PETERSON, PLANT MANAGER HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL, INC. 338 PFA RIDGE ROAD MONCURE, NC 27599-0166 Subject: Permit No. WQ0023197 Honeywell International, Inc. Moncure, NC WT? Alum Residuals Land Application Program Land Application of Residual Solids (503 Exempt) Chatham County Dear Mr. Peterson: In accordance with your application received on September 22, 2003 as well as the additional information received March 5, 2004; April 20, 2004; and May 14, 2004; we are forwarding herewith Permit No. WQ0023197, dated July 9, 2004, to the Honeywell International, Inc. for the operation of the subject alum residuals land application program. This permit is being issued to approve one-time land application of 426 dry tons of alum residuals removed from the lagoon and stockpiled on site on 17 acres of land in Chatham County. Please make note of the following items in response to your May 7, 2004 comments on the draft permit issued by this Division: 1. The effective date for this permit is for five years from the date of its issuance. Because you intend to land apply the stockpiled residuals in a one time event, you may apply for the rescission of this permit upon completion of such activity. However, we recommend that residuals management be conducted on a continual basis by developing a long-term residuals management plan. 2. Condition II. 2. of this permit requires a certified land application/residuals operator to be in responsible charge (ORC) and a certified back-up operator upon classification of this residuals land application program by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). 3. Condition M. 2. and Condition M. 3. require an annual testing of hazardous characteristics, metals and other nutrients. The Division will accept the results from the residuals characterization performed in anticipation of applying for this permit for any land application year during this permit cycle as long as land application is limited to those residuals that were removed from the lagoon and stockpiled on Site No. HWFS should any other generated residuals require land application, annual characterization shall be necessary- However, the analysis of the remaining TCLP compounds (i.e., herbicides and pesticides), which were not included in the Form RSCA 02102 of the permit application package shall be completed prior to initiating any land application event. 4. Condition U. 6- requires a standard soil fertility analysis. You have requested an addition of plant tissue for nutrients and extractable aluminum to the list of parameters to be tested. The Division has not added these parameters to the list of those required by this permit; however, you may and should follow the recommendation of your technical consultant with regard to this issue.

Condition VI. 8. states that the permit is not automatically transferable. Should there be a change in ownership or name of the Permittee, a Permit Name/Ownership Change (FORM: PNOCF 06100) must be filed with the Division and a formal approval must be granted by the Division for such change in permit name or ownership to be effective. Finally, the Division would like to provide a few notes of caution on residuals application activities approved by this permit: 1. One of the land application sites (i.e., Site No. HWFS) has a soil pH of less than 6.0. Please note that Condition 1. 9. of this permit requires a minimum soil pH of 6.0 to provide for optimum crop growth and prevent leaching of aluminum, and should be adjusted accordingly through the use of liming amendments. 2. Because the Site No. HATS also appeared to have topsoil stripped off from its surface, it is recommended that Site No. HWFN shall primarily be used for land application, if possible without exceeding the recommended agronomic rates. In any case, Site No. HWFS shall be used only for one time application event. This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until June 30, 2009 and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting requirements contained in this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational information will result in future compliance problems. If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this pernut are unacceptable, you have the right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of 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.

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. 13. The agronomist shall provide information on the pH best suited for the specified crop and the soil type. 3 10. 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 five or higher), the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) or other method as approved by the Division, using the results from the annual soils analysis as required by this permit, shall be monitored on all of the land application sites. 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 shall review the results and make recommendations regarding 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 implement such recommendations accordingly and shall maintain written records of each monitoring event that includes details of the sites covered and rate of soil amendment application. 11. Prior to land applying residuals to any land application site that has previously received or is intended to receive animal waste (e.g., poultry litter, etc.) or other source of nutrients (e.g., fertilizer, etc.) in the future, the Permittee shall obtain information pertaining to the volume and analysis of the applied wastelnutrients from the landowner and/or lessee/operator of the site. The Permittee shall be responsible for verifying the volume of residuals that may be land applied to the site such that the plant available nitrogen (PAN) loading rate for the specified crop (i.e., see Condition H.13.) shall not be exceeded by all of the sources of PAN applied. Should the maximum PAN loading rate be met or exceeded, then no additional residuals shall be land applied to the site. 12. A suitable vegetative cover, as listed in Condition II. 13., shall be maintained on land application sites onto which residuals are land applied 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 and as approved by the Division. 13. Residuals and other sources of PAN shall be land applied to all land application sites at agronomic rates in accordance with the crop management plan outlined by the local Cooperative Extension Office, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, or other agronomist. Under no circumstances shall the following PAN loading rates land applied to any site exceed the following for the specified crops: 4 PAN PAN Crop (pounds per Crop (pounds per acre per year) acre per ear) Alfalfa 204 Forest 75 (Hardwood or Softwood) Bermuda Grass 220 Milo 100 (Hay or Pasture) Blue Grass 120 Small Grain 100 (Wheat, Barley, or Oats) Com 160 Sorghum or Sudex 180 (Grain) (Pasture) Corn 200 Sorghum or Sudex 230 (Silage) (Silage) Cotton 70 Soybeans 200 Fescue 250 Timothy, Orchard, or 200 Rye Grasses 4 The Permittee shall apply for and receive a modification of this permit before land applying residuals on any land application site that is to be established in a crop other than those listed above. A maximum PAN loading rate for the desired crop shall be approved with the permit modification. If the land application sites are to be overseeded (e.g., bermuda grass in the summer and rye grass in the winter with BOTH crops 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 a5 fulic second crop is to be harvested. 1f the second crop is to be planted for erasion 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. Residuals shall not be land applied at rates greater than agronomic rates, unless authorized by the Division. 14. Animals shall not be grazed on any land application site 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. 15. Food crops, feed crops, and fiber crops that do not come in contact with the residuals shall not be harvested for 30 days after any residuals land application event. 16. 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. 17. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land (i.e., root crops such as potatoes, carrots, radishes, etc.) shall not be harvested for 20 months after any residuals land application event when the residuals remain on the land surface for four months or longer prior to incorporation into the soil. 18. Food crops with harvested parts below the surface of the land shall not be harvested for 38 months after any residuals land application event when the residuals remain on the land surface for less than four months prior to incorporation into the soil. 19. Turf shall not be harvested for one year after any residuals land application event. 20. 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. 21. Adequate procedures shall be provided to prevent surface runoff from carrying any land applied or stored residuals into any surface waters. 22. Surface -applied residuals shall be plowed or disced within 24 hours after land application on land application sites with no cover crop established. 23. For land application sites that are prone to flooding or within the 100 -year flood elevation, residuals shall be land applied only during periods of dry weather. The residuals shall be incorporated into the soil within 24 hours after land application. 24. Residuals shall not be land applied during inclement weather or until 24 hours following a rainfall event of 0.5 -inch or greater in 24 hours. Any emergency residuals land application measures shall first be approved in writing by the Division. 25. Residuals shall not be land applied to any land application site that is flooded, frozen, or snow- covered. 5 26. Appropriate measures shall be taken to control public access to the land application sites during active site use and for the 12 -month period following the last residuals land application event. Such controls may include the posting of signs indicating the activities being conducted at each site. 111. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 1. 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. Residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most -recently -certified Attachment A of this permit shall be analyzed to demonstrate that they are non -hazardous under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). A corrosivity, ignitability, and reactivity analysis as well as a Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residuals source -generating facility listed in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit. The analyses 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. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source - generating facility are land applied at a frequency less than that which is specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, the analyses shall be required for each residuals land application event. The TCLP analysis shall include the following parameters (i.e., note the regulatory level in milligrams per liter in parentheses): Arsenic (5.0) 1,4 -Dichlorobenzene (7.5) Nitrobenzene (2.0) Barium (100.0) 1,2-Dichloroethane (0.5) Pentachlorophenol (100.0) Benzene (0.5) 1,1-Dichloroethylene (0.7) Pyridine (5.0) Cadmium (1.0) 2,4-Dinitrotoluene (0.13) Selenium (1.0) Carbon tetrachloride (0.5) Endrin (0.02) Silver (5.0) Chlordane (0.03) Hexachlorobenzene (0.13) Tetrachloroethylene (0.7) Chlorobenzene (100.0) Heptachlor (and its hydroxide) (0.008) Toxaphene (0.5) Chloroform (6.0) Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene (0.5) Trichloroethylene (0.5) Chromium (5.0) Hexachloroethane (3.0) 2,4,5 -Trichlorophenol (400.0) m -Cresol (200.0) Lead (5.0) 2,4,6 -Trichlorophenol (2.0) o -Cresol (200.0) Lindane (0.4) 2,4,5 -TP (Silvex) (1.0) p -Cresol (200.0) Mercury (0.2) Vinyl chloride (0.2) Cresol (200.0) Methoxychlor (10.0) 2,4-D (10.0) Methyl ethyl ketone (200.0) After the residuals have been monitored as specified above for two years at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, the Permittee may submit a request to the Division for a permit modification to request a reduction of this monitoring requirement. In no case, however, shall the frequency of monitoring be less than once per permit cycle. I An analysis shall be conducted on residuals generated by each residuals 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. If residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility are land applied at a frequency less than that which is specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, an analysis shall be required for each residuals land application event. The analysis shall include, but shall not necessarily be limited to, the following parameters: Aluminum Ammonia -Nitrogen Cadmium Calcium Copper Lead Magnesium Nickel Nitrate -Nitrite Nitrogen Percent Total Solids PH Phosphorus Potassium Sodium Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen Zinc Plant Available Nitrogen (by calculation) After the residuals generated by a particular residuals source -generating facility have been monitored for two years at the frequency specified in the most recently -certified Attachment A of this permit, the Perimittee may submit a request to the Division for a permit modification to reduce the frequency of this monitoring requirement. In no case, however, shall the frequency of this monitoring be less than once per year when a residuals land application event of residuals generated by the residuals source - generating facility occurs during that year. 4. Laboratory analyses as required by Condition III. 2., Condition III. 3., and Condition Ill. 4. shall be performed/gathered on the residuals as they are to be land applied. Furthermore, analytical determinations made pursuant to the monitoring and reporting requirements of this permit shall be made by a laboratory certified by the Division for the required parameter(s) under 15A NCAC 211 .0800 or 15A NCAC 2H.

Noncompliance Notification: The Permittee shall report by telephone to the Water Quality Section of the Division's Raleigh Regional Office at telephone number (919) 571-4700, as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours or on the next working day following the occurrence or first knowledge of the occurrence of any of the following: a. Any occurrence with the residuals land application program that results in the land application of significant amounts of residuals that are abnormal in quantity or characteristic. b. Any failure of the residuals land application program resulting in a release of material to receiving waters. c. Any time that self-monitoring information indicates that the residuals land application program has gone out of compliance with the conditions and limitations of this permit or the parameters on which the program system was designed. d. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the residuals land application program incapable of adequate residuals treatment. e. Any spillage or discharge from a vehicle or piping system transporting residuals to the application site. Persons reporting such occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in letter form within five days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report shall outline the actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur. GROUNDWATER REOUIREMENTS Land Application Site Requirements: a. Each land application site identified with a GW -A in the most recently -certified Attachment B of this permit is dominated by soils with a mean seasonal high water table greater than three feet below the land surface. Residuals land application events may occur on these sites throughout the year. V. 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 Iand 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 land 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. L 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 facilities at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records that must be kept under the terms and conditions of this permit; and naay obtain samples of groundwater, surface water, or leachate. VI. GENERAL CONDITIONS This permit shall become voidable unless the residuals land application events are carried out in accordance with the conditions of this permit, the supporting materials, and in the manner approved by the Division. E 2. This permit shall be effective only with respect to the nature and volume of residuals described in the application and other supporting data. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit may subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes §143- 215.6A through § 143-215.6C. 4. The annual administering and compliance fee sball be paid by the Permittee within 30 days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly may cause the Division to initiate action to revoke this permit, as specified by 15 NCAC 2H.0205 (c)(4). The issuance of this permit does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (i.e., local, state, and federal) which have jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, applicable river buffer rules in 15A NCAC 2B .0200, soil erosion and sedimentation control requirements in 15A NCAC Chapter 4 and under the Division's General Permit NCG010000, and any requirements pertaining to wetlands under 15A NCAC 2B .0200 and 15A NCAC .0500. 6. This permit may be modified, revoked, and/or reissued to incorporate any conditions, limitations and monitoring requirements the Division deems necessary in order to protect the environment and public health adequately. 7. The Permittee, at least six months prior to the expiration of this permit, shall request its extension. Upon receipt of the request, the Division shall review the adequacy of the facilities and residuals land application program described therein, and if warranted, shall extend the permit for such period of time and under such conditions and limitations as it may deem appropriate. 8. This permit shall not be automatically transferable. In the event that there is a desire for the residuals land application program to change ownership or to change the name of the Permittee, a formal permit request shall be submitted to the Division documentation from the parties involved and other supporting materials as may be appropriate.
