Please be aware that this reduction in acreage will make the proper management of the subject land
application program more difficult. The amount of land permitted in WQ0001863 only slightly exceeds the
amount of land required for the specified crops to utilize all of the plant available nitrogen. The Division of
Water Quality (Division) recommends that the Permittee incorporate additional land into the subject land
application program. Issuance of this permit is done with the understanding that the acquisition of
additional sites is currently being pursued. Also, soil testing data indicates that several fields have high
levels of sulfur. Please monitor this parameter carefully.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until November 30, 2004, shall void Permit No.
WQ0001863 issued December 3, 1998, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein.
Please pay particular attention to the monitoring and reporting requirements contained in this permit. Failure to
establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required operational information will result in
future compliance problems. Also, please be aware of the buffer requirements listed in Condition 1. 6.
If any part, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following receipt of this permit. This
request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of North Carolina General Statutes,
and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-
6714. Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding.
If you need additional information concerning this matter, Iease contact Ms =Joni"Cardin ,at (919) 733-
