Methods Introduction: D&D Organic Farming, LLC has been permitted to operate since 12/16/2016, and is in the solid waste management business, composting various materials to create an agricultural soil amendment. Septage, consisting of grease trap and septic waste is brought to the facility by various companies, mostly in the eastern part of the state. These companies pump grease trap waste from restaurants and schools, and septic waste from individual houses. The 2016 permit from DEQ DWM consists of 7.7 acres composting area and 1.1 acres of area consisting of tanks and associated processing equipment. The current DWM Composting Permit expires 12/16/2021. In addition to permit renewal, D&D is seeking to expand the facility composting area by roughly 9.7 acres. Materials & Management: The received septage is pumped into storage tanks and later undergoes lime stabilization and solids separation. The lime stock for stabilization is delivered to the facility via tanker in liquid form. The tanker offloads into an aboveground storage tank. A polymer is used to enhance solids/liquid separation. The polymer is delivered to the facility in reusable totes. The materials used in the stabilization and separation steps are contained inside tanks that have no contact with storm water. Additionally, compost bulking material consisting ofwoodchips brought to the facility by the City of Wilson and local landscaping/tree trimming companies, land clearing debris and yard waste brought to the facility by the Town of Fremont and sometimes by the public such as local landscaping companies or an individual cleaning their yard. Hay is brought to the facility by local farmers. Tobacco dust, which is generated from the processing of tobacco, is brought to the facility by Craven Ag. The current bulking material staging area is located between the existing windrow area and the septage unloading/treatment area. The area is approximately 0.3 acres surface area and is less than 25' high completely within the Outfall 001 drainage area. The staging area does have contact with stormwater. The septage solids are combined with the bulking material in windrows, where controlled composting is conducted. The finished compost is removed from the windrow area and land applied to area agricultural fields, outside the drainage areas of both Outfall 001 & 002, as a soil amendment for row crops and/or grasses. Method of Treatment: As materials arrive on site by truck, they are directed to the designated storage area for unloading, depending on what feedstock they are carrying. Septage is offloaded into storage tanks that feed liquid/solid separation units. When enough septage solids are generated, a rubber -tired wheel loader is used to combine the bulking materials in with the septage solids into a wheeled tractor powered mixing hopper for mixing to proper consistency for initial windrow construction. The windrows must be turned at specified intervals to enhance the composting action and to ensure a quality product. This is accomplished with a specialized tractor powered compost turner implement designed specifically for this purpose. Lastly, the mature compost is removed from the windrow area and spread on agricultural fields to provide needed nutrients for the selected cover crop. As mentioned previously, these fields are outside the drainage area associated with this Individual NPDES Stormwater Permit Application. The windrow area does have contact with stormwater. The following are the walk-through steps involved for this site: o Unload Septage waste into septage dewatering facility o Lime stabilization for pathogen reduction o Septage Dewatering Facility Tanks are decanted o Processed through bar screens o Septage moves to holding tank, decanted later o After decanting, sludge goes through a dewatering process o Effluent is irrigated on designated fields (associated DWM Permit) o Solids from decant process are mixed in mixer with wood chips/ rarely other feed stock with a known ratio o Mixed material is then placed on windrow for curing o After curing, material sits on site for a minimum of 90-120 days o Material is then spread onto agricultural (non-food chain) fields The composting process is designed to operate in open uncovered areas. To minimize and control contact stormwater, the facility utilizes constructed swales and berms to manage the stormwater entering and exiting the current and proposed new areas.
