The General Order includes conditions that <br /> address water quality protection measures at composting operations. A Fact Sheet on the <br /> General Order is attached to this letter, and the General Order, and other related documents, <br /> are available online at: http://www.swrcb.ca.-gov/water issues/programs/compost/. <br /> This General Order applies to both existing and new composting operations. Existing <br /> composting sites are those which conducted composting operations prior to 4 August 2015, and <br /> new composting operations are those which commenced after 4 August 2015. All existing <br /> composting operations without current individual WDRs or waivers are required to apply for <br /> coverage or submit a Notice of Non-Applicability prior to 4 August 2016. All new composting <br /> operations are required to seek coverage not less than 90 days prior to commencement of the <br /> composting operation. <br /> Composting operations currently covered by individual WDRs, existing conditional waivers, or <br /> other general orders, may continue operations under the authority of those orders until those <br /> orders expire or are subject to renewal. At that time, or earlier at the discretion of the Regional <br /> Water Board, those existing composting operations may be required to enroll under the General <br /> Order. <br /> Composting operations may apply for coverage under the General Order by submitting the <br /> following: <br /> • A complete Notice of Intent (NOI) (Attachment C of the General Order). <br /> • An appropriate filing fee (Cal. Code Regs., title 23, § 2200) which is also the first year <br /> annual fee.

For existing composting operations, the technical report shall include a proposed <br /> timeline for full compliance with the terms of the General Order, and must be as short as <br /> practicable but may not exceed six years. For new composting operations, full <br /> compliance must be met at commencement of composting operations. <br /> KARL E. LONOLEY SOD, P.E., Coln I PAMELA C.
