This visit was prompted by a request from the farm owners as well as local NRCS office for input from NC State Extension service relative to engineering and animal waste management issues at both locations. The following Extension personnel were present: Mr. Ethan Henderson (Haywood County Extension Agent); Mr. Mark Rice (Extension Ag Engineer, Animal Waste, BAE, NCSU), Mrs. Shannon Banner (Graduate Research Assistant, BAE) and Dr, Stephanie Ward (Dairy Extension Specialist, ANS, NCSU). Statement of the Issue Both Ross and Triple R Dairy received notices from the Division of Water Quality that testing sites on Jonathan Creek indicated an overgrowth of microbial species, as well as increased volatile solids (VS) and biological oxygen demand (BOD), presumably related to improper drainage of a culvert between the two dairy locations. When contacted, both owners (Steve/Phillip Ross and Ralph/Hank) were aware of the initial report (requested by Mountain True). Both Ross families, as well as the local NRCS director (Mr. Vanhook) agreed that they had worked well together on past issues and that both Ross families were amenable to addressing the current run off problems. However, both farms had requested assistance from the Haywood District NRCS, which had not yet been provided due to staff vacancies. From here forward, the reported violations at each dairy farm will be addressed separately. This letter will focus on the Triple R Dairy. Summary of Findings and Suggestions The primary problem area on this dairy was the poorly graded lot leaving the freestall housing going into the parlor holding pen, combined with leachate from silo storage (problem has since been amended) and an overflowing water system. Once the grade of the lot is addressed, we believe that will alleviate much of the run off problem at this lot site and will redirect the run off into the appropriate collection site. Additionally, a roof extension on the end of the freestall housing will prevent further run off at this location. It is imperative that everyone involved understand that, while these sound like straightforward solutions, all require a significant financial commitment and consideration of animal health and well-being. on this visit, and others unrelated to this issue, it is clear that both families are striving to take great care of their livestock and their family farms. The topography of the land where these farms are situated is problematic and will continue to be as these operations grow to support the demand for good quality milk and to support future generations on the farm. One final suggestion would be that both sets of owners discuss the future of each location and consider working with third party consultants to have a strategic plan for growth. Respectfully submitted, j �j k��AA� Dr. Stephanie H. Ward 9 0 Triple R Dairy Visit- Potential Violations/Problem Areas 1. Leachate from silage storage and water trough This area was identified on a previous visit (not by this team) as problematic because of leachate from the concrete silo as well as leaking water pipes. The head to a natural spring is located above the silo structure and feeds the water system for this side of the cow housing. This area is below level of the holding pen as cows wait to enter the parlor. Thus, waste, leachate, and water were all meeting in this common spot and the lot is not properly graded to drain this area to the waste storage pond. In addition to waste management concerns, this area was quiet slippery and also represented potential hazards for cows entering and leaving the parlor. Picture 1. Leachate, parlor/holding pen waste, and water collect in improperly graded open lot. Suggested solution: The owners (Steve and Phillip Ross) had already made amendments to the silo corner on the day of our visit and decreased utilization of that silo as a storage spot for wet feed. This should address the leachate concerns from that silo. The most needed change was to regrade the lot so that the waste water could flow off the lot and into the waste storage pond system. 2. Run off from free stall housing into culvert This area was identified as a run off source during rain events, because cows are able to access this lot and it is not covered. Also, the barn floor slopes in this direction so when it rains, run off from the corner of the lot is not captured. Though not well pictured below, there is not an easy solution to catching that run off. Picture 2. End of freestall/housing barn where run off can be a potential concern during rain events. Suggested Solution: While it is not easy nor economical, and that was recognized by all present, the best option is to tie in a new roof extension. The owners did mention that this alley is used as a turn -around point for their feed tractor and wagon so the alley way could not be narrowed in order to ensure adequate space for equipment maneuvers. The final suggestion was to extend the roof all the way over the concrete block wall and install steel beam support there for the roof extension. This would cover the area from rainfall as well as allow room for the feed wagon to enter, turn, and exit. The option of capturing the runoff from this section of the freestall barn and diverting it to the waste storage pond should also be explored as an option to extending the roof.

As we discussed, water quality issues are still occurring downstream of the farm. DWR is requesting the status of providing temporary and permanent engineering assistance to the farm. Attached are the two problem areas that we discussed. The culvert area by the silage pit and the waste management of the free stall area at the far end of the building. DWR feels that engineering assistance is needed for these two areas. DWR understands that resources are tight and schedules busy. However, due to the severity of the condition of the stream below this dairy we are requesting a timeline to provide engineering assistance. Another Notice of Violation will be issued in the near future. Thank you for your continued communication and assistance with the site and please let me know if I can be of any assistance or we need to discuss further.

Hope you have fun in Wisconsin and MN. DWR appreciates the quick response, including all the efforts and progress that Duane has made. I recently did some more water quality sampling that will help us bracket and document current conditions. I look forward to discussing the reports with you and Duane in the future. The farms obviously need help with permanent infrastructure improvements. I am certain that progress can be made if we continue to work together. Talk to you when you return.

Hey Tim, I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know that we visited with the farms in Haywood county last week, along with Duane, who is copied here. One of our Ag engineers, Mark Rice, went along and had some good suggestions. I am working on a report to follow up, however, it is going to be a few weeks before I can get it out to Duane and the farms. I'm in Wisconsin all this week and MN most of next week, then come home to the dairy show at state fair in Raleigh. Both farms are very willing to work on the issues, but this will not be a quick and/or easy process. Some major construction is going to be required and planning for doing that around the cows and without causing a huge loss in production for the farms has to be a well thought out process. I'm saying that, essentially, to preface the request that if you guys run into any more issues in the immediate future that you'd let us know so we can work with the farms to make progress towards a (hopefully) permanent solution. I appreciate, as do the farmers, the patience and cooperation that has been afforded by everyone involved. I also appreciate the opportunity to work together with yours and Duane's office on this. The more often we can do that, I think we'll see the best results for everyone.

Harris Director Triple R Dairy (Facility #144-13) increased the volume of their animal waste storage pond in -May 2011. The project was constructed in accordance with drawings I prepared and approved on April 13, 2011. The pond expansion was also followed by a change in the manner which Triple R Dairy manages animal waste. Originally, the animal waste management system was designed with all lot -scraped manure stored in a drystack facility. Wastewater produced on the dairy was stored in an earthen pond. Modifications to the waste storage pond include a push -off ramp which enables Triple R Dairy to store lot -scraped manure and wasted bedding in the pond. Triple R Dairy is now operating a manure slurry system by comingling manure and wastewater in the expanded pond. This modification of the animal waste management system provides a greater storage capacity. Triple R Dairy has adequate animal waste storage for 350 dairy cows for a 90 -day period. The expanded pond is capable of storing manure, wasted bedding .wastewater, rainfall, and runoff for a 60 -day period. The drystack facility has a 30 -day capacity for manure and wasted bedding. The two facilities combine to give Triple R Dairy 90 days of waste storage. I attached calculations demonstrating the storage capacity of the waste management system. Additionally, I attached pond expansion drawings and an as -built of the modified waste storage pond. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me.

This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake. This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops_ An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

Also, Tract 327, the irrigation fields list usable acres of 16 & 4.46 in the Planned Crops Summary Table but the wettable acre determination shows 5.48 acres. Am I missing something here?

In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being -added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRYS, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.
