Violation 1
A vegetative cover shall be maintained as specified in the facility's CAWMP on all land application fields
and buffers in accordance with the CAWMP. No waste shall be applied upon areas not included in the
CAWMP or upon areas where the crop is insufficient for nutrient utilization. However, if the CAWMP
allows, then waste may be applied up to thirty (30) days prior to planting or dormancy. — [I 5A NCAC
02T .1304(b)] (Permit No. 100000 Section II 2)
On May 4, 2023, DWR staff during a Routine inspection documented the spray fields had insufficient
crops growing in the field. Some of the overseed was there but was weak and it looked like it was mainly
off type grasses and weeds and large sections of the fields were bare and brown.
Required Corrective Action for Violation 1:
Need to contact an agronomist to check your field and give a recommendation as to what to do to get the
field ready to utilize the nutrients.
Violation 2:
The collection, treatment, and storage facilities, and the land application equipment and fields
shall be properly maintained at all times. — [15A NCAC 02T .1304(b)] (Permit No. 100000
Section II 1)
On May 4, 2023, Division of Water Resources (DWR) staff during a Routine inspection noticed
that both the reels had flat tires on the reel itself and the cart had a flat tire and wheels would not
turn freely on the cart. The tires on one of the reels had come off the wheel and had grass and dirt
on it which indicated it had been pulled around.
Required Corrective Action for Violation 2:
Both reels need to have the tires repaired and working properly along with the bearing in the tire
on the cart so you can pull it around in the fields.
