Non-commercial composting when the source materials are obtained primarily onsite
and the product is used to amend soils onsite or on adjacent parcels owned or operated
by same property owner.

The composting toilet shall be tested, certified and listed by an approved third party organization
So the above is for North Carolina. Oregon has to get exceptions to the above rule.
Wow this British Columbia Composting Toilet manual is by far the best doc I've seen
https://www.biocycle.net/storm-water-management-regulations/
composting facilities located on farms are exempt from the storm water
permitting requirements of the CWA, yet some of those facilities rival
the more “industrial-scale” facilities found elsewhere in size, scale
and potential water quality impact.
Everett, Washington, company Pallet is booming with homeless shelters for cities.

We can offer a cost-effective price point because we use fiberglass
reinforced plastic with a foam insulating core for the panels and
shelves. Plus, we use aluminum framing.
aka Fiberglass Composite Panels also called RV composite panels

These panels are being used by Pellet housing out of Everett Washington
and also Toilet tech out of Washington - I wonder who is supplying them?
Pellet housing is the goto source contractor for cities providing
structures for the homeless! Their business is booming! toilet Tech is
the goto contractor for providing outhouses and composting toilets!
This looks like the THIN stuff - not EPS Polystyrene Insulated Sandwich Panels
There were lots of concerns that the use of Polystyrene (PS) is not as durable and strong as the fiberglass that we used in the past. We can reassure you that our Polystyrene inserts are definitely as strong as the fiberglass
British tiny home building using the same panels as the Pallet company?

Then there are also aluminum composite panels used for Billboards.
the two brands are
DiBond
and
Alumalite, also known as Alumacorr.

@brianh1161 I've been researching the conundrum of living on your own land off-grid (like people did legally before we "improved" the land). A Tent turns from a shelter to a structure after six months where I have land. Any structure that is inhabited as a dwelling requires a building permit. Any permanent dwelling is supposed to be up to International building Code but the county next door does allow primitive dwellings IF the sewage permit is allowed. You can move a tent but if you live on your land for more than seven months then you are required to have a permanent dwelling sewage permit.
This means a graywater septic system (if you have any gravity fed pipe in a structure) has to be set up and a year round composting toilet system - that county actually understands composting but most county sewage planners do not understand composting. British Columbia has quite a detailed document on discharge for composting toilets - legally in my state after a year then it is no longer septage - so no longer discharge.
The problem is that living in a tent then triggers the "seasonal recreational" tax assessment requiring a "permanent dwelling" somewhere else - effectively making a person homeless. If I am working on tree products as agroforestry then it's a farm labor campsite and NOT seasonal recreational - but it's also tax assessed rural vacant (and not agricultural residence) since it's not technically an "agricultural product." So that would be my ONLY argument available to legally live in a tent on my land. Herders under Federal Labor Code can do this as "seasonal" migrant workers but they just leave for a long vacation and then return.
A person could be a farm laborer but if they own the farm then it's still a residential tax assessment requiring the permanent building code facilities (fire alarms for example). I figure it's better to just NOT have a street address - and live in a tent as a "farm" worker - even if it for my own farm LLC - as sole proprietor - and it can be a primary dwelling - but any primary dwelling also requires the permanent residence standards.
but if I move the tent every six months then it remains a shelter! So I can just set up two platforms of 2 x 6 on concrete foundation blocks to put the tent on - move it every six months.
So normally a primitive dwelling is only allowed for seasonal use tax assessment. Yeah quite the catch-22. I could build a pallet cob dwelling that is big enough for IBC standards even though it's primitive and off-grid. That just leaves the required sewage permit - if I get enough composting toilets then I would not have to remove any septage until after a year, making it no longer septage!! I can then legally compost it on the property - which is zoned as Forest - Agriculture. Technically biosolids do not require a state permit and if they are class-A then they are no longer sewage requiring a county permit. That would be my last resort if my agroforestry work camp situation gets declared illegal. hahaha.
Ironically I could order a "homeless" shelter from this Pellet company in Washington state - business is booming for them - as they supply the cities with homeless structures made of Composite Fiber board (FRP with foam and an aluminum frame). I would have that set up and say if the county assessors make me homeless then I''m already good to go. hahahaha.
Under the U.S. EPA’s Part 503 regulation, Class A requires the material to go through a PFRP (Process to Further Reduce Pathogens) process. Merrell Bros. had proposed to do the first stage of the drying inside two solar-heated greenhouses, followed by oven pasteurization, also known as belt drying, where PFRP would be met (video below shows the entire process). It took 1.5 years to work out the contract and design details, and construction got underway in late 2016. Merrell Bros. markets the end product under the brand FloridaGreen.
30 minutes of 70 Celsius aka 160 F. to pasteurize the biosolids!! Wow - that's how Class A biosolids fertilizer are created - it's NOT the same as compost. hahahaha.

Class A biosolids standards are thermophilic composting.
