Subject: Removal of Registration
Facility Number 66-62
Northampton County
Dear Margaret Duke:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an animal waste
management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .0217. The information you provided us indicated that your
operation's animal population does not exceed the number set forth by 15A NCAC 2H .0217, and therefore does not
require registration for a certified animal waste management plan.
Under 15A NCAC 2H .0217, your facility is deemed permitted if waste is properly managed and does not
reach the surface waters of the state. Any system determined to have an adverse impact on water` quality maybe
required to obtain a waste management plan or an individual permit. You are reminded that a discharge of wastes to the
surface waters of the state will subject you to a civil penalty up to S 10,000 per day.
Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits listed
below, you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan prior to stocking animals to that level.
Threshold numbers of animals which require certified animal waste management plans are as follows:
Swine 250
Confined Cattle 100
Horses 75
Sheep 1,000
Poultry with a liquid waste system 30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff
at [phone] ext 502.

Subject: Notice of Violation # 96-039
Notice of Intent to Revoke Deemed Permit
Farm Number 66-062
Northampton County
Dear Ms. Duke:
You are hereby notified that, having been deemed permitted to have a nondischarge permit for the
subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 211.0217, you have been found to
be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit.
On March 26, 1996, staff from the Raleigh Regional Office performed a site inspection at the
subject facility. This inspection revealed that wastewater was running off of several piles of
chicken litter via ditches into an unnamed tributary to Bear Swamp which is classified as "C NSW"
waters of the State within the Chowan River Basin.
In accordance with the requirements of NCAC 2H.0213, you are hereby given notice that sixty
(60) days following your receipt of this letter, the Division of Environmental Management intends
to revoke your permit unless the following conditions are completed:
1. Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater or correct the violation.
2. Make any modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges.
3. Submit an approved animal waste management plan and have the attached certification form
completed. One copy of the plan must be sent to your local Soil and Water Conservation
District. The certification form and two (2) copies of your plan must be returned to the address
below:
Division of Environmental Management
Water Quality Section Operations Branch

An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 10% post -consumer paper

Failure to comply with the above conditions will result in permit revocation and therefore, the
existing animal waste management system serving your animal operation will be in operation
without a permit as required by North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1.
Your approved animal waste management plan must explain how you will collect, store, treat and
land apply your animal waste in an environmentally acceptable manner. To assist you in the
development of this plan and to provide the required certification that the plan is acceptable, you
should contact your local agricultural agencies such as the Soil and Water Conservation District,
the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service, the North Carolina Cooperative Extension
Service or a technical specialist designated pursuant to the rules adopted by the Soil and Water
Conservation Commission.
If we have not received the requested animal waste management plan and certification within 60
days of receipt of this letter or if there are additional discharges to the surface water a civil penalty
of up to $10,000 may be assessed and you may be required to apply for an individual
nondischarge permit from the Division. This permit, if issued, will contain monitoring and
reporting requirements determined to be necessary by the Division.
Although we will make every effort to work with you in correcting the problems found at your
facility, please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as preventing the Division from
taking appropriate enforcement actions for either these violations or other past or future violations.
If you have any questions concerning this matter please do not hesitate to contact either Judy
Garrett, Water Quality Regional Supervisor for our Raleigh Regional Office at [phone] or
Mr. Shannon Langley at [phone], ext. 581.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water.
The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as .they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface .is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of waste oroduced per year
50,100 birds X 5.8 tons/1,000 birds/year = 291 tons/year
Amount of Nitro en produced per year
50,100 birds X 194 lbs N/1,000 birds/year = 9,719 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

The producer shall be responsible for covering all dry waste either
by roof, tarp, or plastic from the time it leaves the poultry house
until it is land applied.
Where owners of animal operations do not have adequate amounts of
land to apply the waste, the producer must provide a written
agreement whereby another landowner has agreed to land apply or
allow land.application on his or her land.
Records will be required by DEM. They should note the time of
cleanout, the approximate amount, and the location of the site where
the litter was applied. If third party applicators use the litter,
records must be maintained of the third party's name, address and
phone number.
Call the Natural Resources Conservation Service or Soil and water
Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis
report to -obtain the amount per acre to apply and the application
rate prior to applying the waste.
Narrative of Operation:
operator will remove remaining stockpile of litter. New waste will
be covered immediately. Waste will be applied by other applicators.
WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN AGREEMENT
I agree to carry out this waste management plan according to the
terms of the agreement. Failure to comply with the waste management
plan will automatically require any cost share funds to be refunded
to their source. This agreement is valid for 10 years from the date

Dear Ms. Duke:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an OIC.
A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving
cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain
a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and
returned by December 31, 1996.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919n33-0026.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water.
The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface ds
frozen. Dither of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of waste produced ger year
50,100 birds X .5.8 tons/1,000 birds/year = 291 tons/year
Amount of Nitrogen produced per year
50,100 birds X 194 lbs N11,0"00 birds/year = 9,719 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

The producer shall be responsible for covering all dry waste either
by roof, tarp, or plastic from the time it leaves the poultry house
until it is land applied.
Where owners of animal operations do not have adequate amounts of
land to apply the waste, the producer must provide a written
agreement whereby another landowner has agreed to land apply or
allow land application on his or her land.
Records will be required by DEM. They should note the time of
cleanout, the approximate amount, and the location of the site where
the litter was applied. If third party applicators use the litter,
records must be maintained of the third party's name, address and
phone number.

Mrs. Margaret Duke

Mrs. Duke,
For your broiler operation, I recommend some type of cover
for your litter pile. This can be by a large tarp or by
some type of structure. We have copies of one from a
construction company out of Murfreesboro.
Covering the waste to keep rainfall from going through it
and causing runoff is the main consideration. Also if it is
kept dry, then it can be picked up when the user is ready to
apply it. This is much easier for the spreader.
I have talked to Joey Davis of Seaboard about a waste
utilization plan for your broiler operation. I am prepared
to develop one with him and you to utilize the waste.
Working through the Northampton Soil and Water Conservation
District, we will assist you as much as possible to correct
this situation.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Duke:
ATIelsAA
[DaHNF;Z
You are hereby notified that, having been deemed permitted to have a
nondischarge permit for the subject animal waste disposal system .pursuant to 15A
NCAC 2H .0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit -
On March 26, 1996, Mr. Buster Towell of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted an
inspection at your facility that revealed that wastewater was running off of
several piles of chicken litter via ditches into an unnamed tributary to Bear
Swamp which is classified as C NSW waters within the Chowan River Basin.
In accordance with the requirements of NCAC 2H .0213, you are hereby given
notice that sixty (60) days following your receipt of this letter, the Division of
Environmental Management intends to revoke your permit unless the following
conditions are completed:
1. Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater or correct the violation.
2. Make any modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges.
3. Submit an approved animal waste management plan and have the attached
certification form completed. One copy of the plan must be sent to your local
Soil and Water Conservation District. The certification form and two (2) copies
of your plan must be returned to the address below:

Failure to comply with the above conditions will result in permit revocation and
therefore, the existing animal waste management system serving your animal
operation will be in operation without a permit as required by North Carolina
General Statute 143-215.1.
Your approved animal waste management plan must explain how you will collect,
store, treat and land apply your animal waste in an environmentally acceptable
mariner. To assist you in the development of this plan and to provide the required
certification that the plan is acceptable, you should contact your local
agricultural agencies such as the Soil and Water Conservation District, the USDA
Natural Resource Conservation Service, the North Carolina Cooperative Extension
Service or a technical specialist designated pursuant to the rules adopted by the
Soil and Water Conservation Commission.
If we have not received the requested animal waste management plan and
certification within 60 days of receipt of this letter or if there are additional
discharges to the surface water a civil penalty of up to $10, 000 may be assessed
and you may be required to apply for an individual nondischarge permit from the
Division. This permit, if issued, will contain monitoring and reporting
requirements determined to be necessary by the Division.
Although we will make every effort to work with you in correcting the problems
found at your facility, please be advised that nothing in this letter should be
taken as preventing the Division from taking appropriate enforcement actions for
either these violations or other past or future violations.

Dear Ms. Duke:
On March 26, 1996, Mr. Buster Towell of the Raleigh Regional
Office conducted an inspection of the subject animal operation.
This inspection is a part of the Division's efforts to determine
potential problems associated with animal waste management systems.
The inspection revealed that wastewater was allowed to run off
from piles of chicken litter via several ditches that had been dug
for that purpose. These ditches carried waste run off to an unnamed
tributary to Bear Swamp which is classified as C NSW waters within
the Chowan River Basin.
The above referenced discharge is a violation of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215.1(a) which states:
143-215.1(a) "No person shall do any of the following things
or carry out any of the following activities until or unless
such person shall have applied for and received from the
Commission a permit therefor and shall have complied with such
conditions, if any as are prescribed by such permit;"
1. Make any outlet into waters of the State:
This office is issuing you this Notice of Violation regarding
this matter, and you are hereby required to immediately eliminate
the illegal discharge which is subject to civil penalties of up to
$ 10,000.00 per day, per violation.
