Residual Solids (503) Program
Duplin County
Dear W. Smith:
In accordance with your permit modification request received on September 14, 2012, we are
forwarding herewith a modified Attachment A and a modified Attachment B, both certified October 18,
2012, to Triple S Farms & Cleaning, Inc: for the subject land application of residuals solids program.
This certification of Attachment A is being; issued to approve additional tonnage for an approved
residuals source, which is the Town of Wallace WWTP, a facility that is owned and operated by the Town
of Wallace. The tonnage from this facility .will be increased from 100 dry tons per year to 380 drytons
per year, and the total tonnage for this permit from all sources is therefore being increased from 276.51
dry tons per year to 556.51 dry tons per year. Please note that residuals sampling at the Town of Wallace
WWTP has been changed from annually to quarterly in accordance with the sampling rules. The sampling
of residuals for TCLP analyses from the Town of Beulaville has been changed from annual sampling to
sampling once every permit cycle, based on an evaluation of historic TCLP monitoring data.
This certification of Attachment B is being issued to modify the acreage of the existing
application areas and to add a new application area to the program. Fields 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are having their
acreages changed and Fields 6 and 7 are being added to the program. These changes will result in the total
acreage being increased from 68,24 applicable acres to 96.79 applicable acres.
Please replace the existing Attachment A of Permit No, WQ0030998 that was previously
certified on August 1, 2012 with this modified Attachment A. Please also replace the existing
Attachment B that was certified on December 9, 2009 with this modified Attachment B. It is the
Permittee's responsibility to ensure that a complete permit is created by inserting this modified
Attachment A into Permit No. WQ0030998, issued on December 9, 2009 and by inserting this modified
Attachment B into Permit No. WQ0030998, issued on December 9, 2009.
This modified Attachment A and Attachment B shall be effective from the date of certification;
shall void Attachment A and Attachment B of Permit No. WQ0030998 that were previously (most
recently) certified on August 1, 2012 and on December 9, 2009, respectively; and shall be subject to the
