Please accept my apologies for the tardiness of this response. Rusty and I had a miscommunication about
who was going to write this letter.
The over application on the two pulls listed in the NOV occurred as a result of data entry errors in the
pumping record system. The program we are currently using doesn't allow us to delete old, unused field
information from the system. When the data entry was done for these two pulls, the person entering
pumping events inadvertently selected old fields which had considerably more acreage that the actual pulls
#1 and #2 on this farm.
This generated a nitrogen balance report back to the field, which showed the land tech a greater balance
than actually existed on these pulls.
The Laurinburg Division has put the data entry responsibilities back in the Land & Nutrient Management
Dept. We believe this will give us more control and oversight to make sure the balance sheets going out to
the field match with the acreages on the WUPs for each farm.
Let me know if you have any more questions_

On April 11, 2002, an operation review was conducted of Farm 7705, facility number 83-22, in
Scotland County. This review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.10D, is one of two
routine site visits scheduled for all subject animal operations in 2002. Staff from the. Division
of Water Quality will conduct a separate compliance inspection.
During the operation review, the following items were noted:
• Pull #1 - 2.4 acres - 91 pounds of nitrogen was applied to small grain causing a 41
pound over application.
• Pull #2 - 3.1 acres - 57 pounds of nitrogen was applied to small grain causing a 7
pound over application.
It was for these reasons that your operation was referred to the Division of Water Quality for
further investigation and possible enforcement action. G.S. 143-215.10E requires staff from
the Division of Sail and Water Conservation to notify the Division of Water Quality and the

Division of Water Quality
On May 1, 2001, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality were
notified by you that an over -application of PAN had occurred on Farm # 7705 located in Scotland
County. The reported over -application occurred on pull 13-a in the amount of 9 pounds which was in
excess of 10 percent on the small grain overseed with an application rate of 50 pounds. - The
owner/operator is required to notify the Regional Office in accordance with the General Permit condition
I11.6.f. which states: "Overapplying animal waste either in excess of the limits set out is the
CAWMP or where runoff enters surface waters".
A subsequent review on January 15, 2001 of the records submitted on May 1, 2001 identified the
over -application being less than 20 percent of the small grain overseed.
Upon review and consideration of the information submitted, the Fayetteville Regional Office has
determined that the Notice of Violation issued on May 10, 2001, will be rescinded and reissued as a
Notice of Deficiency.

Dear Mr. Rawls,
DENR-FRO
JUN - 6 2001
_DWQ
On April 26, 2001, a representative of Murphy -Brown LLC called the Fayetteville Regional
Office of the Divison of Water Quality to report over -application of PAN on these farms. This
phone call was made in accordance with the requirement to notify as stated in General Permit
condition M.6.£ A letter was sent to John Hasty on May 11, 2001 as follow-up to the phone call
(see copy attached). The letter outlines specific field and crop information as well as the amount
of excess nitrogen applied on each field. Subsequent notices of violation, dated May 10, 2001,
have been received (copies attached).
The over -application occurred on the specified pulls as a result of a combination of management
and record keeping errors. In the past, OIC's were not provided copies of current IRR 2 reports
for the farms they were in charge of. Pumping personnel relied on direction from their
supervisor regarding which hydrants to pull from and which fields to be irrigated.
The following actions have been taken by our company to ensure these problems were corrected
and this type of over -application will not occur again:
1. We will immediately revise our PAN balance to subtract the overapplied nitrogen from the
amount allowed on the current crop.
2. OIC's and their pumping personnel now receive current IRR 2 reports on a regular basis.

3. Since these events occurred, OIC's and their pumping personnel have received extensive
training on how to read their reports and calculate pumping time left on individual pulls,
based on lagoon analysis and equipment set-up.
4. The farm operations manager in Laurinburg during the time of the violations has been
replaced by a new farming operations manager, who has been in charge of land and nutrient
management since April, 2001.
5. Personnel who pump under the supervision of the current OIC's in this division have recently
completed the required training to sit for the WPCSOCC exam, Animal Waste Grade.
Additional training and more OIC's will enhance the efforts we are putting into this
department.
6. All personnel with nutrient management or application duties have received additional
training through Carroll's EMS program.
While these deficiencies are regrettable and are incidents we are not proud of, several mitigating
factors should be taken into account when considering the DWQ disposition of this matter.
1. These shortcomings were identified through new management procedures in Carroll's
IS014001 certified Emergency Management System (EMS).
2. DWQ was notified by our personnel upon discovery of the problem and immediate corrective
actions, as outlined above, were taken to address the problem.
3. This incident prompted a comprehensive review of the Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for each and every Carroll's company owned farm in the Laurinburg
division. At this juncture, we are confident all CAWMP files are current, accurate, and in
full compliance with permit requirements.
4. To the best of our knowledge, there was no adverse environmental impact resulting from the
events.
In light of the above stated facts, I request that no further enforcement actions be taken in this
matter.
If you have any questions regarding any aspect of these issues, please feel free to contact me at
910-293-3434, extension 244.

This is in reference to the inspections that you and I did on June 27t", 28t', and 2e The above
mentioned farms are being attended to prevent over application and control weeds. I will list the
preventive measures below because some are consistent with each farm.
1. Weed control: We are spraying the chemical ally and mowing close to allow the
Coastal Bermuda to grow, 7681 and 7078-1.
2. We have installed individual sow waters which gives an overall reduction of 25%
water usage, 7705 all barns, 7707 Boar Barns. We are also installing pressure
regulators for a 10% reduction, 7707, 7681.
3. Within our computer record keeping system, there is a report that shows how many
pumping hours are left on a hydrant. We are using this as a monitoring tool, 7681,
7705, 7707, and 7078-1.
The above mentioned measures should help to prevent over application, barring a Hurricane
season such as the one last year. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at
my new office number
910-276-5637. There is no secretary, so if I am out of the office please leave a message and I
will call you back.
