McLean Blvd. in 1982 (permit#1981-27-OP). Each of the original four cells at the site is approximately 500 feet wide by 600 feet long by 11 feet deep. Two additional cells were added to the site in 1999(Permit#1998-SC-0674). This increased the storage capacity by 170,000 cubic yards to a total of approximately 550,000 cubic yards. The cells decant to a common detention pond,which then overflows to a drainage ditch and eventually to the Fox River(NPDES Permit#IL0062251). The South McLean Blvd. Lagoons receive lime sludge from Elgin's Riverside Water Treatment Plant only. This facility is supplied with raw water from the Fox River(96%)and deep wells(4%) on a yearly average. The cells contain approximately 350,000 cubic yards of wet lime sludge, and the yearly production rate at the Riverside Plant is about 18,000 dry tons. The lime sludge is pumped to the lagoons from the Riverside Plant at about 3.5%solids,and the lagoons contain material of about 40%solids. Airlite Street Lagoons The City of Elgin's Airlite St.Water Treatment Plant is supplied by water from five deep wells. About 5% of the City's water is provided by this plant,and about 8,000 dry tons of lime sludge are generated annually. The plant has two lagoon cells on site,constructed and put in service in 1998(Permit#0792- FY1997). The total capacity of the two cells is about 6,400 cubic yards. Each cell was constructed with a double liner consisting of non-woven geotextile fabric over PVC, and a leachate collection system,over a geosynthetic clay liner. A top protective layer consists of six inches of reinforced concrete over twelve inches of soil. Leachate collection pumps were installed in each cell, along with groundwater monitoring wells nearby. An exception to the water well setback zone requirements was granted by the Illinois Pollution Control Board in 1995 (PCB 94-371)for this work since the lagoons are near the deep wells. The lagoons currently contain about 1,500 cubic yards of material at about 60%solids. The ferric sulfate used as the primary coagulant at the Airlite St.WTP makes the lime sludge thicker and more concentrated. City of Elgin Lime Residue Characteristics The sludge from Elgin's Riverside Plant, stored at the S. McLean Blvd. lagoons,consists primarily of lime residue from the softening basins. A small amount of alum sludge and powdered activated carbon from the pretreatment basins is added to these lagoons also. The Airlite Plant lagoons contain sludge consisting entirely of lime residue from the softening processes. Nothing is ever added to the lagoons except the waste from the water treatment plants. The water softening processes at both plants include the addition of calcium oxide to reduce the hardness and a small amount of ferric sulfate as a coagulant. The softening by-product of calcium carbonate is the main component of the sludge, making it a good substitute for agricultural lime products because it reacts the same way in the soil. It enhances the effectiveness of fertilizer and supports better plant growth by raising the pH of normally acidic soils.

LimeResidueRemoval and Disposal 11 of 11 September 2014 11 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Performance Based Compensation and Performance Reviews Beneficial Reuse Management utilizes a Performance Based Compensation System,which was adopted with the beginning of the 2008 compensation year. Compensation Components-Compensation for each employee covered by the system consists of a base salary paid semi-monthly and a target bonus paid once per year. The percentage of total compensation that is paid in bonus will vary by individual and by position but, in general, higher paid employees will have a greater portion of their compensation earned from their target bonus. Compensation Determination -Each employee's compensation is reviewed in January and salary level and target bonus level for that calendar year is determined and communicated to the employee by the employee's manager. Employees joining the company after January 1 of each year will have their target bonus amount prorated for the portion of the year that they are employed by the company. Bonus Criteria—Full time employees will have a target bonus. The target bonus is not an entitlement and is paid only if earned based upon evaluation of factors including individual performance against bonus criteria and the performance of the company against its financial plan. Personal goals and objectives for each compensation year are established for each employee by their manager and committed to writing in the employee's annual Performance Plan. Managers will discuss performance against the written goals at the end of the year. Goals can be both quantitative and qualitative and will be unique to each job within the company. Bonus Payments-Bonus payments are made in February of each year, based on personal performance appraisals and performance of the company in the prior calendar year. Bonuses are not earned until they are paid. Should an employee leave the company for any reason before the bonus is paid, no pro-rated portion of the bonus will be due or paid. Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 5 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Equal Opportunity Equal Opportunity is Beneficial Reuse Management's policy. It is our policy to select the best-qualified person for each position in the organization. No employee of the company will discriminate against an applicant for employment or a fellow employee because of race, creed, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, sexual orientation, marital status, or other physical or mental disability. No employee of the company will discriminate against any applicant or fellow employee because of the person's veteran status or any other characteristic protected by law. This policy applies to all employment practices and personnel actions including advertising, recruitment, testing, screening, hiring, selection for training, upgrading, promotion, transfer, demotion, layoff,termination, rates of pay, and other forms of compensation or overtime. Employee Status and Records Employment Classifications There are three classifications of employees: Regular Full-time-An employee who works a normal 40-hour workweek on a regularly scheduled basis. Regular Part-time-An employee who works less than a normal workweek, on either a regularly scheduled basis or on an irregular basis. Temporary-An employee hired for a period not exceeding three months and who is not entitled to regular benefits.An extension of a temporary work classification for an additional three-month period, or less, may be granted, if upon review by management, the assignment is clearly found to be necessary.A temporary employee may be full-time or part-time. In addition to the use of this classification for clerical positions, it applies to students working part-time and those who work during the summer. All employees are classified as exempt and non-exempt according to these definitions: Salaried Exempt-Positions of a managerial, administrative, or professional nature or for outside sales, as prescribed by federal and state labor statutes, which are exempt from mandatory, overtime payments. Salaried Non-Exempt-Positions of a clerical, technical, or service nature, as defined by statute, which are covered by provisions for overtime payments. 4 Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Performance Improvement Performance improvement may be suggested whenever company management believes that an employee's performance is less than satisfactory and can be resolved through adequate counseling. Corrective counseling is completely at the discretion of company management. The company desires to protect its investment of time and expense devoted to employee orientation and training whenever that goal is in the company's best interests. The company expressly reserves the right to discharge"at will". Even if corrective counseling is implemented, it may be terminated at any step at the discretion of management. Management, in its sole discretion, may warn, reassign, suspend, or discharge any employee at will, whichever it chooses and at any time. Termination Employment with the company is normally terminated through one of the following actions: Resignation—Voluntary termination by the employee; Dismissal- Involuntary termination for substandard performance or misconduct; Layoff-Termination due to reduction of the work force or elimination of a position; Resignation: An employee who wants to terminate employment, regardless of employee classification, is expected to give as much advance notice as possible. Two weeks or ten working days is generally considered to be sufficient notice time. If an employee resigns to join a competitor, if there is any other conflict of interest, or if the employee refuses to reveal the circumstances of his or her resignation and the future employer, the manager may require the employee to leave the company immediately rather than work during the notice period. This is not to be construed as a reflection upon the employee's integrity but an action in the best interests of business practice. When immediate voluntary termination occurs for the above reasons, the employee will receive pay"in lieu of notice,"the maximum being two weeks of pay based upon a 40-hour workweek at the employee's straight-time rate or salary. Dismissal: Substandard Performance-An employee may be discharged if his or her performance is found unacceptable by a supervisor/manager. The supervisor/manager may, at his or her discretion, counsel the employee concerning performance deficiencies, provide direction for improvement, and warn the employee of possible termination if performance does not improve within a defined period of time. 6 Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Misconduct-An employee found to be engaged in activities such as, but not limited to, theft of company property, insubordination, conflict of interest, or any other activities showing willful disregard of company interests or policies, may be disciplined, up to and including possible termination. Termination is at the discretion of the supervisor/manager and depends upon the seriousness of the offense. If an employee is terminated,the employee shall be provided with a written summary of the reason for termination. No salary continuance or severance pay will be allowed. Layoff-When a reduction in force is necessary or if one or more positions are eliminated, employees will be identified for layoff after evaluating the following factors: • Company work requirements; • Employee's abilities, experience, and skill; • Employee's potential for reassignment within the organization; • Length of service. The employee will receive at least two weeks advance notice of termination date and will receive one week of pay for each year of employment with the company up to a maximum of four weeks. The payment will be based on a 40-hour workweek at the employee's straight time rate or salary. All outstanding advances charged to the terminating employee will be deducted from the final paycheck by the payroll department. On the final day of employment, the employee's manager must receive all keys, ID cards, and company property from the employee. Harassment & Discrimination Policy Prohibition on Harassment & Discrimination It is the policy of Beneficial Reuse Management to maintain a working environment free from all forms of illegal harassment or intimidation such as harassment and intimidation based on race, color, creed, sex, national origin, age, sexual orientation, marital status, physical or mental impairment or veteran status. Sexual harassment is defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when: • Submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as a basis for any employment decision affecting such individual; or • Submission to such conduct is made, either explicitly or implicitly, a term or condition of an individual's employment; or • Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an employee's work performance, or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive working environment. 7 Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Employees who feel that they may have been subjected to sexual harassment or intimidation, or any other forms of harassment described above, should immediately contact their direct supervisor, or any manager or officer of the company. All complaints will be promptly, confidentially and thoroughly investigated. Any employee who is found to have violated the above policy will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action up to and including discharge. No retaliatory action will be taken against any employee who uses or participates in this complaint procedure.

Temporary employees, employees who work less than 30 hours per week and employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement are not eligible for PTO. Benefit Accrual: 1. Newly hired employees begin accruing PTO on the first day of employment. PTO is accrued monthly based on an employee's anniversary date and length of service.

Employees are encouraged to use flextime hours for this purpose or to take advantage of polling hours prior to the beginning or following the end of your workday. Jury Duty Time off for mandatory jury duty or court appearances required as a result of a valid subpoena or court order is excused and paid at full salary, provided that proof of duty is verified by the employee's supervisor/manager. There will be no adjustment in the employee's salary for receipt of jury duty pay, witness fees, or expenses. The employee is expected to report for work when it does not conflict with court obligations.

Such leave is in addition to all other paid leave time. Typically, paid leave is reserved for the death of immediate family members. Family and Medical Leave Policy Even though the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA)does not apply to the Company because of its small size, the Company nevertheless provides the same benefits as provided for in the FMLA. The Company will grant up to 12 weeks of leave during a 12-month period to an eligible employee taking FMLA Leave. Before beginning unpaid FMLA Leave, the employee must first use all accrued vacation and personal time. Eligibility: To qualify for FMLA leave, employees must meet the following conditions: A. The employee must be employed by the Company for at least 12 month (need not be consecutive); B. The employee must be employed by the Company for a minimum of 1,250 hours during the 12-month period immediately prior to the FMLA Leave Types of Leave Covered: FMLA Leave under this policy will be approved for the following reasons: A.

Employee Status and Benefits during FMLA Leave: While an employee is on FMLA Leave, the Company will continue the employee's insurance benefits at the same level and under the same conditions as other employees. Benefit time continues to accrue during the paid portion of the leave. Health Insurance: The Company will continue to contribute its share of the premium for health and life insurance coverage.While an employee is on paid FMLA Leave, regular payroll deductions for coverage, if applicable,will be made for the employee's share of insurance premiums.While on unpaid FMLA Leave, the employee must arrange to make payment for his or her share of insurance coverage. Payment must be received by the 20th day of the month preceding the month for which coverage is desired. If the Company does not receive the payment on time,the Company may cancel the employee's insurance coverage. Certification of Serious Health Condition: The Company requires medical certification from the health care provider to support an FMLA Leave request that is due to serious health conditions of either the employee or a family member. Failure to provide certification within fifteen (15)days of the Company's request for same may result in a denial of FMLA Leave. Certification must include the date when the condition began, its expected duration, diagnosis and a brief statement of treatment. If appropriate, the certification must also include a statement that the employee is unable to work or is unable to perform the essential functions of the job. For a seriously ill family member, the certification must include a statement that the patient requires assistance and that the employee's presence would be beneficial or desirable. The Company may require periodic medical certification from an employee on FMLA Leave. Employees on FMLA Leave due to personal illness are required to provide medical certification that they are able to return to work. While on FMLA Leave, employees are required to periodically inform the Company of the status of their medical condition or the condition of a family member, as well as their intent to return to work. 12 Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual Procedure for Requesting Leave: Employees requesting FMLA Leave must submit a written request to their manager at least 30 days prior to the start of the FMLA Leave. If 30 days notice is not possible,the employee must provide as much notice as practicable before beginning FMLA Leave. An employee undergoing planned medical treatment is required to make a reasonable effort to schedule the treatment to minimize disruption to the Company. The employee may take FMLA Leave in 12 consecutive weeks. In cases of the employee's serious health condition or the serious health condition of an employee's family member, an employee may use FMLA Leave intermittently (periodically as needed), or under some circumstances may use the FMLA Leave to reduce the workweek or workday. Employee Status and Benefits after Leave: Under this Policy, an employee on FMLA Leave will be able to return to the same or a similar job with equivalent status, pay, benefits, and other employment terms.A similar position will require equivalent skills, effort, responsibility, and authority. Employees participating in Company-offered insurance programs prior to taking FMLA Leave will not be subject to any insurance qualification requirements(i.e. pre-existing conditions, proof of insurability, etc.) upon return to work. If the employee does not return to work at the expiration of the FMLA Leave period, the Company will consider the employee's failure to return to be a voluntary resignation. If an employee fails to return to work from FMLA Leave for any reason other than the continuation of the employee's or family member's health condition, the Company will require the employee to reimburse the Company for all health and life insurance premiums paid by the Company on behalf of that employee during the leave period.

Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 13 • Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual A change in employment classification that would result in loss of eligibility to participate in the health insurance plan may qualify an employee for benefits continuation under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act(COBRA). Since health insurance is a very complex and expensive employee benefit, employees should consult the plan summary document given to all eligible employees. Copies of the plan summaries are available in the Personnel section of the Beneficial Reuse Management Intranet. Health Benefits Continuation (COBRA) The Federal Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act(COBRA) gives employees and their qualified beneficiaries the opportunity to continue health insurance coverage under the company's health plan when a "qualifying event"would normally result in the loss of eligibility. Some common qualifying events are resignation, termination of employment, or death of an employee; a reduction in an employee's hours or a leave of absence; an employee's divorce or legal separation; and a dependent child no longer meeting eligibility requirements. Under COBRA, the employee or beneficiary pays the full cost of coverage at the company's group rates plus an administration fee. Beneficial Reuse Management provides each eligible employee with a written notice describing rights granted under COBRA when the employee becomes eligible for coverage under the company's health insurance plan. The notice contains important information about the employee's rights and obligations. Life Insurance Life insurance offers you and your family important financial protection from the losses associated with an untimely death. Beneficial Reuse Management provides a basic life insurance plan for all regular full time employees at no cost to the employee. Eligible employees may participate in the life insurance plan subject to all terms and conditions of the agreement between Beneficial Reuse Management and the life insurance company. The current plan provides a Life Insurance Policy providing payment of a benefit of$25,000 to beneficiaries upon death of a covered employee. Additional life insurance is available to employees through the Voluntary Life Insurance plan offered as part of the Section 125 Optional Benefits Plan. Section 125 Optional Benefits Plan Beneficial Reuse Management provides additional optional benefits to employees through an IRS Section 125 Plan. Under this plan, employees can choose to participate in a range of benefits including Vision and Dental Care insurance, short and long term disability insurance and voluntary Life Insurance. Beneficial Reuse Management will pay 50% of the employees cost of participation in these optional programs up to a maximum of$150 per month per employee. 14 Beneficial Reuse Management LLC,372 W.Ontario,Suite 501,Chicago,IL 60654 Beneficial Reuse Management Policy Manual All regular full time employees are eligible to participate in these programs subject to all terms and conditions of the agreement between Beneficial Reuse Management and the insurance carrier. For details of the benefits plan including plan options, benefit amounts, when they are payable, limitations, restrictions, and other exclusions, see the plan document provided to all eligible employees. 401-K Employee Retirement Program The Beneficial Reuse Management 401-K Employee Retirement Plan was established to provide employees with the opportunity to put away savings for retirement while saving on personal taxes. Under the Plan, employees can make before-tax contributions from their pay. Employees over the age of 50 can contribute additional funds to the Plan according to IRS guidelines.

ACORD 25(2010/05) The ACORD name and logo are registered marks of ACORD this revenue with the City of Elgin equally which would reduce the overall cost to the City of Elgin significantly throughout the life of the contract. This concept is summarized in the table below. Reduction in Program Reduction in Cost of Year Dry Tons Sold Cost to Elgin (per ton) Program to Elgin ($) 1 35,000 $ 2.00 $ 70,000 2 35,000 $ 5.00 $ 175,000 3 35,000 $ 8.00 $ 280,000 4 35,000 $ 11.00 $ 385,000 5 35,000 $ 14.00 $ 490,000 8 Subcontractor Qualifications Contractor will utilize subcontractors, including hauling companies that meet all requirements of the bid specifications. All subcontractors used by Contractor will be experienced in performing removal and delivery of lime solids * _ to land application sites and understand the environmentally "° sensitive nature of the program. Pricing and Term Contractor proposes the following pricing for the services outlined above and stated in the City of Elgin RFP Dated November 10, 2014. All loads leaving the McLean and Airlite sites will be weighed with an onsite scale provided by Contractor. A daily report will be generated and provided to the City upon request and for billing purposes. Lime samples will be taken and analyzed for percent solids information and be used for billing purposes. The City of Elgin would pay Contractor$56.00 per dry ton (the"Operating Fee")for lime residue removed from the McLean and Airlite lagoons. Payment will be based on the following calculation: Net Weight (Tons) per load x Total Solids (%divided by 100) =Dry Ton Weight Dry Ton Weight(Ton)x Unit price($)= Payment($) Weight—daily Net Weight of individual trucks Total Solids—Results from solids analysis The Operating Fee will be adjusted annually on the anniversary of the contract for any increases in the published Consumer Price Index. Contractor estimates the value of the lime residue to be approximately$28.00 per dry ton when compared to similar liming products in northern Illinois. Contractor's goal will be to increase the value in the marketplace to this level over the length of the 5 year contract. To get to this level, Contractor will attempt to collect$4 per ton from growers on average in year 1 of the contract and increase this value by$6 each year until we are collecting$28 per ton by year 5. As Contractor is able to increase the value of the material and are able to receive such revenue from the growers in the area, BRM will split 7 dewatering and handling issues in comparison to the current methods and provide additional efficiencies. The Airlite site has limited available space,which a plate and frame press will provide benefits to allow the plant to run more efficiently and allow for more timely removal of residuals from the plant. A review of the entire discharge and operation of the Airlite plant will be undertaken to see if a more efficient and cost effective way of managing the lime residue is possible. Land Application of Lime Residue—Beneficial Use of Lime Residuals Contractor intends to beneficially reuse 100%of the lime residue excavated from the lagoons for agricultural use. However,alternative disposal has been negotiated with two landfills in the area to dispose of the material if necessary. Based on an annual quantity of 35,000 dry tons and an estimated 2—3 dry ton per acre average application rate,approximately 15,000 acres per year will be required to operate this program. Contractor has an established network of growers,crop consultants,and distributors in and around the Elgin area currently using Gypsoil Brand Gypsum and therefore establishing 15,000 acres,or more if needed,for this program will be achieved. Contractor has already spoken with many of these customers and contacts,some of which are already using the lime residue material from the City of Elgin and plan to continue using it as well as other land owners who have legitimate interest in using the material. Contractor has the ability to provide additional value added services that few other companies can offer. These additional services include our proven ability to maximize the value of the byproducts to local farmers through agronomy based education stressing the value of the byproducts to the grower. Through grower education and marketing efforts, BRM Contractor intends to shift past management efforts to create economic value from the byproduct lime for the benefit of the City of Elgin. As outlined in more detail below,Contractor is proposing to share with the City of Elgin the economic benefits of this potential increase in market value of the material. As the value is able to be increased by Contractor the benefits likewise will increase to the City. Regulatory Reporting and Grower Reports Contractor will be responsible for all regulatory compliance,oversight,and reporting in operating this program. In addition,Contractor will provide growers participating in the program with a Grower Report to show them the amount of lime residuals applied and the agronomic benefits associated with the application. To ensure the correct amount of lime is applied to a field,the project technical specialist will calculate the total amount to be applied to a field using current analyses. The field manager, using truck weight tickets or truck volumes, maintains a cumulative subtotal of tonnage entering the field. The reports and documents will be made available to the City of Elgin upon request and the regulatory agency. 6 Continued Dewatering and Removal of Residuals from the Lagoons South McLean Blvd Lagoons Lime residual material will be moved to the sides by a drag line. Lime residuals will be stacked on the sides of the lagoons to facilitate drying. Material that has sufficient time to dewater/dry will then be loaded into end dump tractor trailers by a tracked excavator and then transported to end users. In order to limit disturbance of the lagoon floor,Contractor will implement quality controls/quality assurances to ensure the clay liner is not damaged. Contractor will be hiring a subcontractor to perform this work and will receive bids from multiple subcontractors and review with City of Elgin personnel to ensure a competent subcontractor is selected. Contractor sludge removal equipment includes, but is not limited to: • Drag line excavator • Tracked excavator • Tractor/Trailer end dumps Airlite Street Lagoons Upon an issuance of Notice-to-Proceed the exact method for removal will need to be evaluated based on the time of year. Freezing conditions will require a different management technique for removal and land application. IEPA and IEMA rules and regulation will also dictate what can and cannot be done in a short period of time and the time of year the material needs to be removed. As we progress through the contract the exact approach can be communicated and planned for accordingly based on normal and requested operation parameters. Material that has sufficient time to dewater/dry will then be loaded into end dump tractor trailers or quad dump trucks by a tracked excavator and then transported to the end user. Contractor sludge removal equipment includes, but is not limited to: • Tracked excavator • Tractor/Trailer end dumps or quad dump trucks In addition to the methods of dewatering proposed above, Contractor will also evaluate a long term alternative for managing and handling lime residue at the Airlite site. Contractor will evaluate the use of a plate and frame press and/or vacuum press technology to manage lime residuals that are currently disposed of in the onsite lagoon system. We believe a plate and frame press will help reduce 5 Contractor dewatering equipment includes, but is not limited to: • Suction/Discharge Hose • Trash/effluent pumps 4 Management of Lagoons and Lime Residue Removal Initial Lagoon Dewatering South McLean Blvd Lagoons Initial dewatering of the lagoon at this location will be accomplished by City of Elgin staff prior to solids removal. Decant water will be discharged to outlet structure and adjacent overflow lagoon. Airlite Street Lagoons The City of Elgin has informed BRM the South Airlite Street Lagoon will be completely full by the end of March 2015. BRM will need to make every effort possible to find a solution to this issue before the end of March in order to ensure the continued operation of the Airlite Water Treatment Plant is uninterrupted. Extremely cold weather has resulted in the freezing of the South Airlite Lagoon and therefore made the removal of this material challenging. Some possible solutions to this issue have been discussed with City of Elgin staff and additional solutions will be reviewed with City of Elgin staff during the week of January 12, 2015. Below are some of the possible solutions BRM is considering: - Transport lime residue material from the South Airlite Lagoon to the North Airlite Lagoon to allow for additional capacity in the south lagoon. Additional efforts would be required to allow for the north lagoon to increase capacity including blocking the decant structure. - Transport lime residue material from the South Airlite Lagoon to the South McLean Lagoon. This would require permission from IEPA and IEMA in order to do this but could be feasible if permission is granted. BRM to pursue this option with IEPA and IEMA. - The lime residue material will not have the ability to dewater due to the extremely cold temperatures so BRM will be considering hauling the lime residue material in liquid form in tanker trucks to farm fields for a liquid application to the fields. - Additional options will be considered and discussed with City of Elgin staff. After the South Airlite Lagoon issue is resolved in the near term BRM will operate both Airlite Lagoons in the long term as follows: BRM dewatering will be accomplished by Contractor staff and it's subcontractors in conjunction with and coordination with City of Elgin staff. Sumps will be installed to help facilitate drying of the material in place. BRM staff will work with the City of Elgin to install a system similar to the one shown in the picture below prior to the lagoon being put back into service. Decant water will be discharged to the outlet structure. Pumping will stop when the effluent is removed and sludge is encountered. 3 The Work under this Contract consists of REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF LIME RESIDUE Services for the City of Elgin,IL.

ELGIN, IL 60120 SUBJECT: NOTICE OF REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT 32 Illinois Administrative Code 330.40(d),Regulations Pertaining To The Generation,Handling,And Disposal Of Water Treatment Residuals Containing Radium. The Illinois Emergency Management Agency, Division of Nuclear Safety (herein referred to as IEMA)is issuing this notification to the regulated persons involved in the generation, handling, and disposal of treatment residuals resulting from the treatment of groundwater containing radium-226 and radium-228. Radium-226 and radium-228 are naturally occurring radioactive materials found in certain deep well aquifers. Illinois community water supplies (CWS), in an effort to reach compliance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency's drinking water standard of 5 picoCuries/liter, have installed treatment technologies that remove radium-226 and radium-228 from the groundwater. The radium is removed from the drinking water and concentrated in either a residual at the drinking water treatment facility or in the sludge at a wastewater treatment plant. As a direct result of treating the groundwater for compliance with federal standards, the concentrations of radium in the spent media and sludge have created TENORM (technologically enhanced naturally occurring radioactive material). Proper management and disposal 01 the resulting treatment residuals ensures worker safety and minimizes environmental impact. IEMA regulates the possession and use of radioactive material.Certain uses of radioactive material require a specific license to be issued by the Agency pursuant to 32 Illinois Administrative Code 330. In an effort to minimize the regulatory burden and financial costs imparted to Illinois communities, while affording worker and environmental protection, IEMA has promulgated an exemption from these licensing requirements. On February 28, 2011, 32 III. Adm. Code 330,40(d)was promulgated which provides an exemption for facilities producing treatment residuals containing radium from the treatment of groundwater. Provided the treatment residuals remain at a concentration 01 200 picoCuries/gram or less(on a dry weight basis), licensure and reporting in compliance with 32 III. Adm. Code 330 is not required. Additionally, the disposal costs and fees associated with low-level radioactive waste management are not applicable. Your facility has received this notification due to the fact IEMA believes that the treatment technology installed at your facility, in combination with the aquifer(s) from which the facility draws source water, have the capability to concentrate radium. Furthermore, the disposal of this media and/or any resulting backwash or reject water may concentrate radium in the resulting sludge. This may impact the disposal options available to the end users of the treatment residuals and mandates specific monitoring and reporting requirements. In accordance with 32 III.Adm. Code 330.40(d)2, your facility must register with the Illinois Emergency Management Agency. The first step in registration is verifying and completing the attached contact and inventory information. Community water supplies are asked to verify (as applicable) well inventory, any treatment installed, and any wastewater treatment plant that receives a resulting waste stream. Gather the required information by May 2, 2011. On May 2, 2011, IEMA will make a registration website publicly available at: http://tier2.i ema.state.il.us/WaterTreatment/ . ) 1301 Knotts Street•Springfield, Illinois•62703•Telephone(217)785-9900•http://www.iema.illinois.gov Print /hp the truth.rm'./the Smr,eVUliun, on Re.y.b d Pap r 67 IEMA Illinois Emergency Management Agency Jonathon E.Monken,Director Division of Nuclear Safety Joseph Klinger,Assistant Director A password is necessary for logging in and is preset as the last six digits of your IEPA Facility ID: 894380 You will be asked to change the password upon login.

IL 532-0016 WPC 156 76 NARRATIVE CITY OF ELGIN, ILLINOIS,WATER DEPARTMENT LIME SLUDGE MANAGEMENT PLAN 1.0 Compliance with 35 IL Adm Code Section 391.202(a)(5) 1.1 South McLean Boulevard Lagoons The City of Elgin was permitted to operate a lime sludge waste facility near S. McLean Blvd. in 1982(permit#1981-27-OP). Each of the original four cells at the site is approximately 500 feet wide by 600 feet long by 11 feet deep. Two additional cells were added to the site in 1999 (Permit #1998-SC-0674). This increased the storage capacity by 170,000 cubic yards to a total of approximately 550,000 cubic yards. The cells decant to a common detention pond, which then overflows to a drainage ditch and eventually to the Fox River(NPDES Permit#ILG640231). The South McLean Blvd. Lagoons receive lime sludge from Elgin's Riverside Water Treatment Plant only. This facility is supplied with raw water from the Fox River(96%) and deep wells(4%)on a yearly average. The cells contain approximately 350,000 cubic yards of wet lime sludge, and the yearly production rate at the Riverside Plant is about 18,000 dry tons. The lime sludge is pumped to the lagoons from the Riverside Plant at about 3.5% solids, and the lagoons contain material of about 40% solids. 1.2 Airlite St. Lagoons The City of Elgin's Airlite St. Water Treatment Plant is supplied by water from five deep wells. About 5% of the City's water is provided by this plant, and about 1,000 dry tons of lime sludge are generated annually. The plant has two lagoon cells on site, constructed and put in service in 1998 (Permit#0792-FY1997). The total capacity of the two cells is about 6,400 cubic yards. Each cell was constructed with a double liner consisting of non-woven geotextile fabric over PVC, and a leachate collection system, over a geosynthetic clay liner. A top protective layer consists of six inches of reinforced concrete over twelve inches of soil. Leachate collection pumps were installed in each cell, along with groundwater monitoring wells nearby. An exception to the water well setback zone requirements was granted by the Illinois Pollution Control Board in 1995 (PCB 94-371) for this work since the lagoons are near the deep wells. The lagoons currently contain about 1,500 cubic yards of material at about 60% solids. 77 2 The ferric sulfate used as the primary coagulant at the Airlite St. WTP makes the lime sludge thicker and more concentrated. 1.3 Water Treatment Plant Waste Characteristics The sludge from Elgin's Riverside Plant, stored at the S. McLean Blvd. lagoons, consists primarily of lime residue from the softening basins. A small amount of alum sludge and powdered activated carbon from the pretreatment basins is added to these lagoons also. The Airlite Plant lagoons contain sludge consisting entirely of lime residue from the softening processes. Nothing is ever added to the lagoons except the waste from the water treatment plants. The water softening processes at both plants include the addition of calcium oxide to reduce the hardness and a small amount of ferric sulfate as a coagulant. The softening by- product of calcium carbonate is the main component of the sludge,making it a good substitute for agricultural lime products because it reacts the same way in the soil. It enhances the effectiveness of fertilizer and supports better plant growth by raising the pH of normally acidic soils. 1.4 Farmland Application of Lime Sludge Over the past 5 years, and under Permit # 2006-SC-0769, the Contractor employed by the City of Elgin has removed and land applied lime sludge according to the following table. City of Elgin Land Application of Lime Sludge Dry Tons Contractor's Year Applied Contractor Permit# 2006 17,698 Synagro Midwest 2001-SC-3167,2006-SC-1467 2007 30,781 Synagro Midwest 2006-SC-1467 2008 23,494 Synagro Midwest 2006-SC-1467 2009 23,122 Synagro Central 2009-SC-1988 2010 24,531 Synagro Central 2009-SC-1988 Land application has taken place in the counties of Kane, DeKalb, McHenry, Ogle, Winnebago, Boone, Kendall, Lee, LaSalle and 78 3 Stephenson. The method of land application has been in the form of solid material. At about 40 to 50% solids, the lime sludge is removed from the lagoon cells with a large backhoe, hauled to the fields in watertight semi- trailer dump trucks and then spread with self-propelled open top slinger type spreaders. A crane with a dragline has been used to move the lime sludge to the edges of the lagoon cells so the backhoes can load it onto the trucks. Moving the material around in this manner increases the percent solids since it allows it to dry out somewhat, and also lessens the chance of damage to the lagoon cell liners since no heavy equipment actually enters the lagoon cells. The above permits are very specific with regard to spreading the lime sludge, and the limitations listed in Special Condition 2 have been complied with by the contractor. Spreading has not occurred within the prescribed distances from streams, wells, surface waters, dwellings, and roads. Spreading of the lime sludge is extremely weather dependent, but the lagoon cells have enough remaining capacity to provide storage between periods of land application. The City's Contractor, Synagro Central, has lists of over 30,000 acres of farmland committed to the land application program, and either owns or hires enough trucks, spreaders and other equipment to reach a capability of hauling and spreading as much as 2,000 dry tons per day. The current contract between the City of Elgin and Synagro Central is authorized to be extended on a yearly basis through calendar year 2014. 1.5 Metals Loading Rate Calculations A total of 119,626 dry tons of lime sludge has been land applied during the last 5 years to various farm fields. The cation exchange capacities of these sites have remained constant over the years, in the range of 12 to 20 milli-equivalents per 100 grams of soil. The pH levels of these sites were mostly from 4.8 to 6.6. Lime sludge land application rates are normally between 1.3 and 2.2 dry tons/acre, with a low of 0.5 and a high of 4.5 dry tons/acre. The Contractor currently employed by the City of Elgin has demonstrated that the CEC's do not change much over the years. Normally, the Contractor's application rates are kept below the maximum allowable amount, so the land is built up with increased pH over a few years. This method has worked well within the fanning community. The City of Elgin has been granted a reduced monitoring program for metals, as described in Part 391, Subpart E, Section 391.501 (d)(4). However, we realize that we must comply with the requirements of Part 391, Subpart B, Section 391.202 (a)(5)(E), and also the requirements of Part 391, Subpart D, Section 391.420 (a) through (h), both of which 79 4 require calculations for heavy metal loading. We shall therefore use the highest levels seen in past test results to calculate the site life as required. The heavy metals loading rates and projected life of the sites are shown in the following table. Using the highest test result seen in the past analyses, and a maximum application rate of 10 dry tons/acre,the metal loading rate calculations are as follows: Sludge Annual Maximum Analysis Loading Metal Loading Metal Loading Site Life Metal mg/kg Factor lbs/acre/year lbs/acre Years Arsenic 3.9 0.02 0.078 100 1282 Cadmium <2.9 0.02 0.058 10 >172 Chromium 7.6 0.02 0.152 3500 23,026 (Total) Chromium <21.0 0.02 0.420 440 >1048 (Hexavalent) Copper 7.6 0.02 0.152 250 1645 Mercury 0.85 0.02 0.017 7(annual) ---- Nickel 2.8 0.02 0.056 100 1786 Selenium 0.16 0.02 0.032 8 250 Silver 6.8 0.02 0.136 178 1309 Zinc 16.0 0.02 0.320 500 1563 2.0 Compliance with 35 IL Adm Code Section 391.202 (b) The City of Elgin's current contractor, Synagro Central, LLC., normally land applies lime residue to sites larger than 300 acres and uses more than 1,500 dry tons per year. Synagro is permitted(Permit#2009-SC-1988) to do the work, and the Appendix I Sludge User Information Sheets are generated and kept by them. Following is a listing of the 10 largest sludge users over the past two years, including calculations of dry tons per acre application rates. 80 5 2009 and User Name, 2009 2010 Total 2010 Total Dry Tons Address Acres Acres Acres Dry Tons Acre Pfab Farms 974 474 1421 3318 2.34 7571 Highway 251 Davis Junction, IL 61020 Wayne Hayenga 760 710 1470 2718 1.85 12506 Lindenwood Rd Kings, IL 61068 Jeff Nes ler 368 606 974 1914 1.97 18097 Meims Rd Genoa,IL 60135 Tom Hansen --- 913 913 1836 2.01 5119 N.Rt. 47 Woodstock, IL 60098 Pierce Farms --- 979 979 1752 1.79 24917 River Rd Marengo, IL 60152 Gale Walk 266 400 666 1514 2.27 13176 E.

Union Rd Union, IL 60180 Art Bingham --- 835 835 984 1.18 8680 Old State Rd Clare, IL 60111 81 6 3.0 Compliance with 35 IL Admin Code Section 391.405 (a) From information found in the USDA Soil Conservation Service Soil Surveys, the farmland used for the City of Elgin's lime sludge land application program consists generally of silt loams and silty clay loams, ranging in color from dark to dark gray. The cation exchange capacities range from 12 to 20 meq/100g. The most common crop is corn, and the normal yield averages over 118 bushels/acre according to Appendix C of Part 391. Some soybean and wheat ground is used also, and these crops average 37 and 49 bushels/acre, respectively. According to Chart I of Appendix E of Part 391, suggested normal limestone application rates would range from 3 to 8 tons per acre,depending on soil pH. Since water treatment plant lime sludge is much more efficient in raising soil pH than agricultural limestone, the Effective Neutralizing Value [ENV] must be calculated. From the formulae in Appendix E of Part 391, and using an averaged calcium carbonate equivalency from the recent analyses,the ENV is calculated as follows: ENV = Total fineness efficiency x %calcium carbonate equivalent 100 ENV = 100 x 87.4[averaged calcium carbonate equiv.] or 87.4 100 Knowing that the ENV of agricultural lime is 46.35, a correction factor must be calculated as follows: Correction Factor = ENV of Ag Lime = 46.35 = 0.5303 ENV of WTP Sludge 87.4 Therefore, 0.53 dry tons of the City of Elgin's lime sludge is equivalent to each ton of ag lime. This means that the normal application rates for Elgin's lime sludge should be about 1.6 to 4.2 dry tons per acre. The previous Permit, 2001-SC-3550, contained a maximum application rate of 10 dry tons/acre, but as shown above the normal application rates are within the recommended ranges. 4.0 Compliance with Memorandum of Agreement between IEPA and IDNS Analyses of the City of Elgin's lime residue show the total radium to be from 0.1 to 2.9 pCi/gram at the South McLean Blvd. lagoons, and from 27.5 to 49.5 pCi/gram at the Airlite lagoons. This enables us to land 82 • 7 apply the lime residue as long as the incremental increase of the radium concentration in the soil does not exceed 0.4 pCi/gram. Using an estimated soil weight of 75 lbs/cubic foot, the top six inches of one acre of soil would weigh 1,633,500 lbs. If land application at up to 4 dry tons/acre of the Airlite Plant lime sludge is done,the concentrations in the soil would be as follows: 8000 lbs. sludge/acre= 0.0049 1,633,500 lbs. soil/acre Using the lowest total radium level seen in the Airlite lime sludge of 27.5 pCi/gram,and multiplied by 0.0049,this yields a level of 0.1347 pCi/gram in the soil,which is below the increase allowed in the Memorandum. If land application of the Riverside Plant lime residue material, at up to 10 dry tons per acre, is done; the concentrations in the soils would be as follows: 20.000 lbs. sludge/acre = 0.0122 1,633,500 lbs. soil/acre Using the highest total radium level seen in the Riverside lime sludge of 2.9 pCi/gram, and multiplied by 0.0122, this yields a level of 0.03538 pCi/gram in the soil, which is below the increase allowed in the Memorandum.
