Box 51 Midland, NC 28107 Subject: Notice of Deficiency DWQ Animal Operation Inspection Wilburn Williams Farm, Facility #: 13-11, 13-17 Dear Mr. Williams: Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facilities on June 20, 2000. This letter is being issued for each facility as a Notice of Deficiency for failing to maintain the vegetation around the storage pond and buildings. Excessive vegetative growth prevents a proper inspection of the facilities and the storage pond. This deficiency has been noted during previous inspections. At facility 13-17 (feeder -finish), small shrubs on the northeast corner of the storage pond embankment need to be cut down. Grass and weeds around the remainder of the pond and the buildings needs to be properly maintained (mowed and/or herbicide). Also, the pump marker needs to be repainted so that it is easily identifiable. Facility 13-11 (farrow -feeder) requires similar maintenance. The grass and weeds need to be mowed to allow for proper inspection of the buildings and storage pond for seeps and leaks. Also, the rodent problem needs to be controlled. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson or me at (704) 663-1699. Sincerely, D. Rex Gleason, P.E.

Box 51 Midland, NC 28107 Subject: Notice of Violation (Response) William Swine Farm Facility 13-11 & 13-17 Union County, NC Dear Mr. Williams: Thank you for your response to the Notice of Violation issued on April 3, 2001 for the inspection conducted at your farm. It will be included with your file. We apologize for any confusion you may have, but it was requested that a letter indicating the actions taken to correct the noted violations be mailed to Mr. Alan Johnson's attention. The Division of Water Quality requires that all trees and shrubs and other woody vegetation be removed according to good "engineering practices" and the storage pond embankments be kept mowed. Mr. Johnson has noted excessive vegetated growth on the embankments during his inspections for the past three years (September 2, 1999; June 23, 2000, and March 29, 2001). It is important that the information on the waste application forms agree with the information shown in the farm plan. The box on the IRR2 form for field size should contain the acres covered by the irrigation system (the wetted acres). It was not clear whether the total acres, wetted acres, or the acreage covered for each pull (by the traveling gun) was used without recalculating the information on the form. It is important that all required. information be clear and available for review. A general drawing and/or diagram of the irrigation system might have been useful in the review of the records. A drawing/diagram should be included in your files and be available during inspections. Your previous response failed to indicate the time frame for correcting the above noted issues. Please submit a written response to this Office by June 11, 2001 indicating the actions to be taken. It is requested that your response be addressed to the attention of Mr. Johnson. It is also requested that your responsereference the facility number. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson or me at (704) 663-1699.
