Dear Mr. Dodson:
RECEIVED
MAR . 31 2005
DEM - FAYETrEUILLE REG ONAL OFFICE
In response to .your correspondence dated March 9, 2005, I have spoken with Martin Mabe of S&ME. He
is in the ,process of updating maps of the existing spray irrigation fields. This project, is scheduled to be
completed within 30 days, at which time I will forward the information to your attention.
Secondly, concerning the items listed on the second page of your correspondence, we presently have
contractors looking at all three items and expect to have quotes within 90 days. Upon receipt of the quotes,
the projects will be let and should be completed within 6 months.
In response to the question on page 3 of your correspondence relating to the status of our recycling system,
this morning I spoke to Tommy Langston, the Plant Manager. He informed me that the facility has begun
practicing a water management and reduction program.The plant is already, seeing approximately 30%
reduction in water usage. This program includes measures to maintain the levels of the lagoons by adding
no more water -than the volume removed by irrigation. In evaluating the current water use at the facility
and their ability to reduce usage, I have contacted an engineering firm in North Carolina, who has
scheduled a site visit to ascertain what will be needed to design a new irrigation system on property already
owned by the company. Once this determination and a cost projection are completed,' we expect the design
to be completed within 4 months. At that time :we will be requesting a fast track permit for the
construction. Upon approval we expect to have the construction completed within 8 to 12 months.
If you have any questions or require any additional information, feel free to contact me at 479-524-6431

Dear Mr. Carswell:
Resources
William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary
Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director
A recent review of spray irrigation field monitoring data revealed several problem's that
need immediate attention. According to the existing Permit the spray irrigation areas at
the Turkey facility_ are divided into four zones, A,B,C & D for a total applicable acreage
of 72.78 acres.A review of the division's monitoring data base raised questions
regarding the compliance of the annual hydraulic limitations for various fields. =It appears
based on data submitted that the hydraulic limits have been exceeded on some of the
fields.
I have personally `visited the site and to observe the problem and ,now have a better
understanding of the current situation.
It seems that the Permit issued` on November 2, '2001 has 'inaccurate spray: acreage.
Based on our calculations measured on the ground and information submitted by your
consultant, Soils and Materials Engineering (S&ME), the actual acreage utilized is
approximately 102 acres. The specific zone identity and acreage in the existing Permit is
inaccurate and confusing. It is my opinion that the sites initially permitted are being
utilized. A segment of one of the zones was utilized as a borrow pit to enhance the
structural integrity of the dam on the second stage lagoon. This letter requests that Allen
Canning Company submit new maps with accurate acreage and zone identity for both
your company and the Division of Water Quality.

This matter should be given immediate attention. Our data base is indicating that your
company is now in violation of the current Permit.
The following items also need immediate attention:
1. In the original zone, there is a large depression that we were advised would be
eliminated during the maintenance performed on the dam of the second stage
lagoon. This was not performed. It has become a catch basin for rainwater, a
maintenance problem which has resulted in loss of acreage in this zone. Please
advise when this necessary maintenance item will be completed.
2. The pump station slid into the lagoon. This is considered an emergency
maintenance item and should be corrected as soon as possible. A pump station
has been rigged to spray irrigate wastewater, however, OSHA may be inspecting
one day and find many safety. concerns. This needs prompt attention.
3. The Permit issued on November 2, 2001 calls for solid set irrigation system, with
permanent piping hydrants, valves, etc. The only solid set system is the original
field that was present when Allen Canning Company originally bought this
facility. The maps that have been requested with accurate zones and acreage
should reflect the reel irrigation layout that is being currently utilized. The main
wastewater system should be permanent. The permanent wastewater conveyances
are part of the issued Permit and need to be appropriately installed. The existing
situation is a Permit violation that needs your immediate attention.
Please provide a Plan of Action to this office for the above three items by March 30,
2005.

The last request would be a status for the proposed recycle system that was discussed in
2004. The Express Review for late fall 2004 was cancelled and what time frame do you
anticipate a new submittal of this application package.
Should you have any questions, feel free to let me know.

The schedule for Weds. 7 June is Valley Proteins -at 9:30am in Wadesboro,
meeting with James Hodges ORC for treatment works and spray irrigation
system: Duane Leith has a conflict for that afternoon, so he' will not attend'
the afternoon meeting at'1:30pm in Laurinb'urg,at Murphy -Brown truck -wash. The
truck wash site visit shouldn't take more than 1,to 1 1/2 hours.
If you leave the Raleigh area (Oberlin Road), it.will take,about a.1 1/4
hours to -.drive to the Southern Pines/Aberdeen area. If you wish, I will meet -
you at the Wendy's in SP/Aberdeen that is on US.l,.as you head south.. The
Wendy's is on your right and is next to a BB&T bank. I can'park my car and
ride with you if you wish'or you can ride with me, doesn't matter. If we -
leave SP/Aberdeen by 8/8:15 we will arrive at Valley Proteins by 9:30.
I will bring with meson Weds, the information that'I pulled from the regional
file on Allen Canning. The info. in our files doesn't have or indicate that
copies%were mailed to dentral-Office. There is no follow up;information or
correspondence from Grady Dobson on the surveying he requested and that -Allen
Canning had S&ME perform on the 'spray fields to verify.,the total acreage.
Also in this package is a site map from 1999 that•indicates field sizes.'The
areas indicated on the 1999 map'are somewhat consistent with'the acreage
listed in the existing permit..;The'new information created by S&ME indicates
larger field areas. (Area.D), but no modification has been requested. The
letter that Martin Mabe (S&ME) referred to in our meeting'is not in the FRO
files, but some of the' accompanying maps that I'found in the FRO file exist.

Re: Site visit.
The maps appear to have been removed from a spiral binder and not part of a
letter. We can discuss the information on Weds during our travels, if the
above schedule works for your calender.

MEMORANDUM
To: Kim Colson
Through: Debra Watts
From: Thomas E. Cadwallader, P.E. , —I&,
Subject: Allen Canning Company
Sampson County
WQ0004268/GW01018
WQS-CO Reviewer: Sue Homewood.
GWS-RO Reviewer: Billy Meyers
Allen Canning Company of Turkey, NC (formerly Green Giant and Joan of Arc) is proposing to
expand its industrial wastewater treatment capacity from 0.300 mgd to 0.415 mgd by adding spray
irrigation facilities. No other treatment improvements are proposed in this expansion request.
Several concerns exist relative to this expansion:
a. The proposed expansion is based on capacity of existing treatment units incorrectly
described in the existing permit. Specifically, the existing permit, in the 4`'' line names ".... three acre
(50 million gallon) final settling lagoon .......". We believe that this treatment `lagoon' actually
contains only 5 million gallons (if that much) and the permit should be corrected accordingly.
b. This same `final settling lagoon' receives canning wastewaters which are typically
organically loaded with over 4001bs BODS /acre (a more reasonable value that would effect organic
treatment might be 40 lbs BOD/acre) with possibly low nutrient and oxygen availability thus
preventing in -basin aerobic organic assimilation. Odors, solids accumulation and noxious conditions
prevail in this earthen basin, including the potential to seep into the local groundwater system.
C. The existing (Area A) and proposed spray fields (Areas B, C and D) are located up
gradient to several groundwater receptors, specifically, a water supply well for an adjacent house
and Mill Run Creek. Therefore, it is proposed that one additional monitoring well be installed
(MW-4) and placed near the railroad embankment, cross gradient to the proposed area " C " as
shown on the attached map. An additional well (MW-3) has all ready been placed between areas
"D" and the Mill Run Creek.
d. The applicant is proposing "seasonal" use of area " D " along with pre -monitoring to
Page 1 of 5

insure that more than three feet separation exists between the land surface and the groundwater table
before land spraying. From a `calculation standpoint', we concur with this approach used by the
applicant to size the irrigation system. The effect is to limit these bottomland soils (Area D) to no
more than 43 inches of spray water per year. In a like manner, the Areas B and C soils are to receive
no more than 62 inches per year and Area A, no more than 78 inches per year.
However, from a `use standpoint', and in lieu of "seasonal restrictions", we propose that the
operator merely insure that a depth to water table exceeds 3_ feet within'twenty-four hours before.
applying spray to Area D. In other words, if drought conditions occurred in December (a normal
"seasonal restrictions" month) and the water table were measured to be more than 3 feet below the
surface at MW-3, then the applicant could -spray (providing an adequate land cover exists) to drain
storage before what could be a potentially wet spring. "Seasonal Restrictions" might otherwise cause
this to be an enforceable action subject to civil penalty, rather than a wise operating procedure.
The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit modification application and recommends
reissuance of the permit with the following conditions:
(1) Within 90 days -of permit issuance, 1 additional monitor well (3 currently exist; 2 from the
old spray area and 1 from the lithologic studies in support of this permit) shall be installed to monitor
groundwater quality. The well shall be constructed such that the water ' level in the well is never
above or below the screened (open) portion of the well at any time during the year. The general
location and name for the well is marked on Attachment A as MW-4. The monitoring well shall be
located at the review boundary, constructed in accordance with this permit, and approved by the
Fayetteville Regional Office.
The well must be constructed by a North Carolina Certified Well Contractor, the property owner, or
the property lessee according to General Statutes 87-94.4(b)(2). If construction is not performed by
a Certified Well Contractor, the property owner or lessee must physically perform the actual well
construction activities and the well(s) must meet the North Carolina Well Construction Standards
(15A NCAC 2C .0100).
(2)' Monitor wells (MW-3, and MW-4) shall be sampled initially after construction (and prior to
waste disposal operations in the new fields) and thereafter every March, July and November
(sampling to be done within 1 to 7 days following application of spray disposal) for the following
parameters: Chemical Oxygen Demand, Total Organic Carbon (TOC), Total Dissolved Solid, pH,
Nitrate, Chloride, Sulfate. If animal grazing is used on the spray fields, then fecal coliforms must be
reported also. Monitor wells MW-1 and MW-2 shall be sampled on this same frequency and
parameter list.
(3) The measurement of water levels must be made prior to sampling for the remaining.
parameters. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the top of
the casing.
(4) The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to
Page 2 of 5

provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
(5) If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/l are detected in any downgradient monitoring
well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual constituents
comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background
monitor well exceeds 1Q mg/l, this concentration will be taken to represent the naturally occurring
TOC concentration. Any exceedances of ' this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the
downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and analysis as described above.
(6) All reports and documentation (MW-1, 2,3 and 4) shall be mailed to the following address:
Groundwater Section
Permits and Compliance.Unit
1636 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1636
(7) The results of the sampling and analysis must be received on Form GW-59 (Groundwater
Quality Monitoring: Compliance Report Form) by the Groundwater Section (address listed.
above), on or before the last working day of the month following the sampling month. The data
of all groundwater sampling analyses required by the permit conditions must be reported using
the most recent GW-59 form along with'attached copies of the laboratory analyses. The updated
forms can be downloaded using the following internet website: http:// w.ehnr.state.nc.us/.
(8) For the initial sampling of the wells MW-3 and MW-4, the permittee shall submit a copy of
the OW-1 Form (Well Completion Form) with the Compliance Monitoring -Form (GW-59) for each
well to the address listed in the "Reporting. / Documentation" section of the Groundwater
Requirements. Initial Compliance Monitoring Forms that do not include copies of the GW-1 form
will be returned to the permittee without being processed. Failure to submit these forms as required.
by this permit may result in the initiation of enforcement activities pursuant to NC General Statutes
143-215.6.
(9) Any laboratory selected to analyze parameters must be Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
certified for those parameters required.
(10) Any additional groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall
be provided.
(11) The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in 15A
NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The Compliance Boundary is for the
disposal system individually permitted after December 31, 1983 is established at either (1) 250 feet
from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50, feet within the property boundary, whichever is closest to the
waste disposal area. An exceedarice of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance
Boundary is subj ect to immediate remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions applicable
under General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
'Page 3 of 5

(12) In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the
disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the waste disposal
area. Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require remediation action on the
part of the permittee.
(13) All wells that are constructed for purposes of groundwater monitoring shall be constructed in
accordance with 15A NCAC 2C .0108 (Standards of Construction for Wells Other than Water
Supply) and any other state and local laws and regulations pertaining to well construction.
(14) The Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone number [phone] shall be notified at least
forty-eight (48) hours prior to the construction of any monitoring well so that an inspection can be
made of the monitoring well location. Such notification to the regional groundwater supervisor shall
be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday,
excluding state holidays.
(15) Within sixty (60) days of completion of all monitoring wells; the permittee shall submit two
original copies of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than 1": 100') signed by a technician
specialist that indicates all of the following information:
A. the location and identity of each monitoring well,
B. the location of all components of the waste disposal system,
C. the location of all property boundaries,
D. the latitude and longitude of the established horizontal control monument,
E. the relative elevation of the top of the well casing (which shall be known as the "measuring.
point"), and
F. the depth of water below the measuring point at the time the measuring point is established.
This survey shall be conducted using approved practices outlined in North Carolina General Statutes
Chapter 89C and the North Carolina Administrative Code Title 21, Chapter 56. The surveyor shall
establish a horizontal control monument on the property of the waste disposal system and determine
the latitude and longitude of this horizontal control monument to a horizontal positional accuracy of
+/-10 feet. All other features listed in a. through e. above shall be surveyed relative to this horizontal
control monument. The positional accuracy of features listed in a. through e. above shall have a ratio
of precision not to exceed an error of closure of 1 foot per 10,000 feet of perimeter of the survey.
Any features located by the radial method will be located from a minimum of two points. Horizontal
control monuments shall be installed in such a manner and made of such materials that the
monument will not be destroyed due to activities that may take place on the property. The map shall
also be surveyed using the North American Datum of 1983 coordinate system and shall indicate the
datum on the map. All bearings or azimuths shall be based on either the true or NAD 83 grid
meridian. If a Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to determine the latitude and longitude of
the horizontal control monument, a GPS receiver that has the capability to perform differential GPS
shall be used and all data collected by the GPS receiver will be differentially corrected.
Page 4 of 5

The maps and any supporting documentation shall. be sent to the Compliance Unit; Groundwater
Section, 1636 Mail Service'Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1636.
(16) Within thirty (30) days of completion of all well construction activities, a certification must
be received from a professional engineer or a licensed geologist certifying that the monitoring wells
are located and constructed in accordance with the Well Construction Standards (15A NCAC 2C)
and this permit. This certificationshould be submitted with copies of the Well Completion Form
(GW-1) for each well. Mail this certification and the associated GW-1 forms to the -Permits and the
Compliance Unit, Groundwater Section, 1636 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1636.
(17) For the initial sampling of the well as specified elsewhere in the permit, the permittee shall
submit a copy of the GW-1 Form (Well Completion Form) with'the Compliance Monitoring Form
(GW-59) for that well. Initial Compliance Monitoring Forms that do not include copies of the GW-1
form will be returned to the permittee without being processed. Failure to submit -'these forms as
required by this permit may result in the initiation of enforcement activities pursuant to NC General
Statutes 143-215.6.
(18)' -No spray application of waste' activities shall be undertaken on fields when the seasonal high
water table is verified to be less than three (3) feet below land surface. Verification of the water table
elevation must be confirmed by water level readings obtained from monitor wells near the site or by
using other acceptable means, within 24 hours prior to application of wastewater.

Aliens, Inc. (formerly Allen Canning Company) has been working on developing a new spray irrigation
site for handling of process wastewater from their vegetable processing operations in Turkey, NC
(Sampson County). Consistent with the site approval process, a soils evaluation and hydrogeologic
modeling has been completed. Even after significant work on the model, the hydrogeologic model
suggests an inconceivably low acceptable irrigation rate (50,000 gallons per day on 115 acres or 0.016
inches/day or 5.8 inches/year). In contrast, the soils evaluation suggested about 72 inches/year.
Current irrigation fields are permitted at 43 to 62 inches/year.
Mr. Pohlig has indicated that the general soil typeat the Rowan Road propertytypically would support
irrigation levels in the range of 26 to 30 inches and he was also surprised at the results of the modeling
More importantly, he has indicated that there is an opportunity for DENR to give consideration of this
site for spray irrigation despite what the current modeling results indicate. Per his recommendation, we
would like to meet with DENR to discuss the approach and options for permitting this site.
There is also an issue to resolve with the current nitrate levels in groundwater at the site in that they
exceed standards based on the monitoring that has been conducted thus far. Aliens understands that
irrigation systems are limited based on hydraulic and nutrient applications and would like to discuss the
options given the pre-existing groundwater issue.
Thus, we would like to schedule a meeting to work on the approach and options for permitting this site.
Would you please:
1) Indicate whether there are any other DENR staff that should be involved in this meeting to make it
as productive as possible.
2) Indicate whether you are availableon any or all of these potential dates:
Monday, August 13
Tuesday, August 14
Thursday, August 23
Monday, August 27

this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well
exceeds 10 mg/1, this concentration will be taken to represent the naturally occurring TOC
concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient
wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and analysis as described above.
The results of the sampling and analysis must be received on Form GW-59
(Groundwater Quality Monitoring: Compliance Report Form) by the Division of Water
Quality Information Processing Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-
1617 on or before the last working day of the month following the sampling month. The
data of all groundwater sampling analyses required by the permit conditions must be
reported using the most recent GW-59 form along with attached copies of the

laboratory analyses. The updated forms can be downloaded using the following
website. http://gw.ehnr.state.nc.us/.

of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundaryis subject to immediate
remediation action in. addition' to the penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-
215.6A(a).(1).
8. In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the disposal
systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the waste disposal area.
Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require remediation action on the part of
the permittee.
9. No spray application of water activities shall be undertaken on field D when the seasonal high water
table is less than three (3) feet below land surface. Verification of the water table elevation must be
confirmed by water level readings obtained from monitor wells near the site or by using other
acceptable means, within 24 hours prior to application of wastewater.
