Tier 2 requirements have been implemented for monthly monitoring for outfall RRIV- 2 and
RRIV-4 for the parameter of COD and TSS.
Tyson Farms Inc. did not meet storm water sampling criteria due to late afternoon and weekend
rain events for the month of June 2015. Monthly (analytical and qualitative monitoring) will
continue until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within
benchmark range.
Tyson Foods, Inc. has made significant improvements to reduce the concentrations of the
parameters of concern.
Please contact me at 336- 838- 2171, extension 3253should you have any questions.
