Bob:
I am so sorry to hear about your father, I believe that I would also be out of touch.
If you need more time, please let me know and I will explain your situation to my
clients. Of course that said we both know that it is important to get the consent
order in place; since the court has calendared our matter for hearing on 4 March 2013,
in fact a fully executed consent order with some time tables might be the most
effective use of our time. Your thoughts, Anita

Any update from Anita regarding this injunction? Mr. Woody had until November 2, 2012 to file his response. To date,
we have not received a completed application package nor any written or verbal statement that Mr. Woody wishes to
permanently reduce his cattle numbers below 100. A reminder that his farm number is 01-10 and is located in
Alamance county.

I am in receipt of a motion to extend time to file a responsive pleading that was filed by Woody's attorney, Robert D.Craig,on 2

Subject: RE: Woody Documents
Yes,That means it should be issued by the Alamance County Court once they receive it. They will then give the Sheriff a copy to
deliver the summons and complaint to Mr. Woody. Hopefully, they will be able to find him and deliver the complaint within a
few days. The judge will rule on the prayer for relief as stated in the injunction complaint: That the Court enters a
preliminary injunction order without notice or hearing requiring the following:
a. That within no more than 30 days of the effective date of the order, the Defendants shall submit to
DWQ's Central Office, for its approval, a complete application for a Permit in order to maintain his operation
containing more than one hundred (100) confined cattle, as required by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1OC(c).
b. That within 30 days of the effective date of the order, the Defendants shall secure a valid CAWMP as
required by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1OC (e); or shall permanently reduce the herd size to less than 100 head of
confined cattle until such time as a valid permit has been issued.
C. That within 90 days of the effective date of the order, Defendants shall construct a permanent structure
to store the milking parlor's waste water, and control run-off of waste from the lot, consistent with the CAWMP, so as
to discontinue illegal discharging into Class C,NSW waters.
3. To tax the costs of this action to the Defendant.
4. To grant such further relief as the Court may deem appropriate.
If you need further explanation, you may direct your questions to Anita LeVeaux.

permanent foundation for healthy industrial development and to secure for the people of North
Carolina, now and in the future, the beneficial uses of these great natural resources."
9. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 requires a permit ("Permit") before any person can
"make outlets into the waters of the state" or "cause or permit any waste, directly or indirectly, to
be discharged to or in any manner intermixed with the waters of the State in violation of the
water quality standards applicable to the assigned classifications ... unless allowed as a condition
of any permit, special order or other appropriate instrument issued or entered into by the
Commission under the provisions of this Article [Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the General
Statutes]." N.C. Gen. Stat. §143-215.1(a) (1) and (6).
10. Under N.C. Gen. Stat. §§143-215.1OB and 143-215.1OC, any agricultural feedlot

215.1 OB, 143-215.1OC (a)
12. Rules adopted by the EMC at Subchapter 2T of Title 15A of the North Carolina

the State, including, among others, animal waste management systems.
13. Pursuant to 15A N.C.A.C. 2T.0102 persons "proposing to construct, alter, extend,
or operate any ... animal waste management system" must comply with rules for that system.
14. An Animal Waste Management System Plan must be submitted to DWQ pursuant
to 15A N.C.A.C. 2T .I 304(b).

Regulations 15A N.C.A.C. 2T .0107 and .0108.
20. Pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.6C, when DWQ " has reasonable cause to
believe that any person has violated or is threatening to violate any of the provisions of this Part
[Part 1, Article 21, of the North Carolina General Statutes], any of the terms of any permit
issued pursuant to this Part, or a rule implementing this Part, ..." then DWQ is authorized to
"request the Attorney General to institute a civil action in the name of the State upon the relation
of [DENR] for injunctive relief to restrain the violation or threatened violation."
21. That section further provides that "[u]pon a determination by the court that the
alleged violation of the provisions of this Part or the regulations of the Commission has occurred
or is threatened, the court shall grant the relief necessary to prevent or abate the violation or
threatened violation." N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.6C.
22. Additionally, the section provides that "[n]either the institution of the action nor
any of the proceedings thereon shall relieve any party to such proceedings from any penalty
prescribed for violation of this Part." N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.6C.
Factual Allegations
23. Defendant Woody both operates and is the registered agent for the Farm, a dairy
operation located in Alamance County at 3545 East Greensboro-Chapel Hill Highway, Snow
Camp, North Carolina 27349.
24. Mary's Creek, which is downhill from the Farm, including the concrete cattle lot,
is classified as a Class C water of the State and a Nutrient Sensitive Water(NSW). It is

designated a NSW in order to limit the discharge of nutrients (usually nitrogen and phosphorus).
Mary's Creek and unnamed tributaries flowing into it are waters of the State under N.C. Gen.
Stat. § 143-215.1 pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-212(6).
25. Mary's Creek flows into the Haw River, which is a tributary of the Cape Fear
River.
26, On February 1, 1993, the Farm was deemed permitted as a non-discharge facility
with less than 100 head of cattle in accordance with N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1(b)(4)e and 15A
N.C.A.C. 2T .1303.
27. On February 2, 1994, Defendants were issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) for
late submittal of"Registration Form for Animal Feedlot Operations." Attached hereto and
incorporated herein as Exhibit
28. On January 22, 1997, Harold Woody was issued an NOV for "Discharging in
excess of BMPs" after DWQ observed animal waste discharging from the feedlot and silage
storage areas. Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit
29. On April 3, 1997, Defendants were issued an NOV for failing to designate an
Operator in Charge. Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit
30. A January 26, 1998, DWQ letter documents that Defendants were continuing to
allow runoff of waste from his facility.
31. On October 15, 1998, Defendants signed and submitted a "Request for Removal
of Registration" form to DWQ. Defendants claimed a reduction in the dairy operation's herd size
to below a total of one hundred head of confined cattle and a permit under N.C. Gen. Stat. §
143-215.10C(a) was no longer required. Defendants' signed request conceded and

e e
acknowledged, "Any expansion to this facility would require me to apply for, and obtain a
permit prior to expansion." Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit
32. On February 26, 2009, staff of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the DWQ
("DWQ") made a site visit in response to an anonymous complaint alleging that the Defendant
maintained more than one hundred head of confined cattle without an Animal Waste
Management System permit and thereby violated N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1OC.
33. During the February 26, 2009 site visit, DWQ's staff confirmed the N.C. Gen.
Stat. § 143-215.10C violation through conversation with Defendants, observation of the cattle
herd, and review of the Farm's milk-production records.
34. During the February 26, 2009 site visit, Defendants also admitted to maintaining
more than one hundred head of cattle for at least two years.
35. In a letter dated April 1, 2009, DWQ notified Defendant that it was considering
enforcement action against him per N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 143-215.1, 215.1013, and 215.1 OC.
Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit Defendants were informed a
response must be returned to DWQ within ten(10) days from receipt of the notice and that they
had sixty (60) days to submit a State Application for New or Expanding Animal Waste
Operations along with supporting documents. Defendants were also made aware of potential
civil penalties up to $25,OOOlday per violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1. Another
NOV/NOI was issued April 1, 2009 for failure to apply for a permit.
36. On May 1, 2009, DWQ's staff visited the Farm again to assess environmental
impacts. The staff visually confirmed many violations. Two to eight (2 to 8) inches of sediment
and waste deposited into Mary's Creek from approximately twenty-eight hundred (2,800) linear
feet of severely eroded and denuded stream banks and riparian areas.

37. During the May 1, 2009 visit, DWQ's staff confirmed that at least 160 cattle had
access to the Class C NSW stream.
38. During the May 1, 2009 visit, DWQ's staff observed algal growth in the stream as
well as foam, sludge worms, and waste odor.
39. DWQ estimated total costs for the Farm to obtain an Animal Waste Management
permit to be at least $150,000.
40. DWQ considered Defendants' failure to apply for a Permit to have been
"committed willful and intentional" because Defendants acknowledged in the signed and
submitted "Request for Removal of Registration," dated October 15, 1998 and noted supra, that a
Certified Animal Waste Management Plan ("CAWMP") and Permit prior to expansion was
required.
41. Also, DWQ considered Defendants' stream standard violation to have been
"willful and possibly intentional" because letters from DWQ and a staff document from the
Alamance [County] Soil and Water Conservation District in 1998 and 1997 respectively
demonstrate that Defendants had previously received technical assistance and guidance on
proper measures and management techniques necessary to control run-off of waste into the
stream.
42. DWQ noted that Defendants had been cooperative, readily allowed DWQ staff on
the property and actively participated in the investigation. Defendants also requested technical
assistance from the Alamance County Soil and Water Conservation District and participated in
the April 21, May 28, and June 10, 2009 on-site reviews and evaluations.
43. DWQ sent Defendants an NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce, dated May 15, 2009,
for"Removal of Best Usage," in violation of 15A N.C.A.C. 2B .021 l(2), and for "Other Wastes

Violation," in violation of 15A N.C.A.C. 2B .0211(3)(f). Attached hereto and incorporated
herein as Exhibit
44. On February 16, 2010, DWQ assessed Defendants a civil penalty of nine thousand
and ninety-two dollars and six cents ($9,092.06), for operating an Animal Waste Management
System without a required Permit and for discharge into at least 2,800 linear feet of stream, the
waters of the State.
45. Also, in a separate letter dated February 25, 2010, DWQ notified Defendants that
per N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 OC they must apply for coverage under an Animal Waste
Operation General Permit and that operation of the facility must cease until the application is
submitted. The unfinished application, previously sent to DWQ, was to be completed and sent to
DWQ within sixty (60) days of Defendants' receipt of the February 25, 2010 letter.
46. On May 27, 2010, Defendants were notified by DWQ that the Permit application
lacked a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) and a waste storage pond design,
both of which are required in a completed application. Defendants did not respond to this
request.
47. On February 16, 2011, Defendants were reminded by DWQ that the application
for an Animal Waste Operation General Permit had been returned as "incomplete." The letter
acknowledged receipt of Defendants' February 15, 2011 final payment of seven hundred and
fifty-seven dollars and sixty-seven cents ($757.67), and declared the penalty "paid in full" but
reminded Defendants that the penalty's payment did not preclude further state action for
violations of the State's environmental laws. Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit

48. On June 16, 2011, a second NOV was sent to Defendants for operating without a
Permit. Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit
49. On April 24, 2012, DWQ staff inspected the Farm and observed that animal waste
continued to discharge from the concrete cattle lot and flowed downhill into Mary's Creek.
50. During the April 24, 2012 site visit, DWQ staff confirmed that at least 225 head
of cattle were confined in various stalls, dry packs and barns.
51. During the April 24, 2012 site visit, an inspection of on-site records showed that,
as of March, 2012, the farm's milking herd numbered two hundred fifteen (215) head of cattle,
while the total number was three hundred (300) and exceeded one hundred (100) head of cattle
since 2006, in violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 OC(a).
52. In response to the April 24, 2012 site visit, DWQ sent Defendants an NOW
Notice of Intent to Enforce, dated April 27, 2012. The NOW Notice of Intent to Enforce
reminded Defendants of the June, 2011 NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce referenced supra and
notifred Defendant that to date DWQ had not received a written response regarding neither the
Permit application nor the cattle herd size.
53 DWQ's April 27, 2012 letter notified Defendants of the above violations
confirmed by the April 24, 2012 site visit. This letter reiterated the following: that Defendants
were in violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 143-215.1(a), 215.10B and 215.10C; that Defendants
should respond within ten (10) days of receipt; and that Defendants could be penalized up to
$25,000 per day per violation along with potential criminal penalties for violating State
environmental laws and regulations. Attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit
54. In a letter dated May 14, 2012, Defendants responded to DWQ to "clarify
observation #1" [regarding discharges from cattle lot], to update DWQ on progress "made

towards facility construction that is part of the plan that will be submitted with an updated permit
application," to give an anticipated time for submitting an updated application, and to inform
DWQ of extenuating circumstances affecting his facility's construction efforts and application
submissions.
55. As of July 31, 2012, Defendants lack a permanent structure to store waste water
from the milking parlor and DWQ believes the Farm will continue to illegally discharge.
56. As of July 31, 2012, Defendants have not secured a CAWMP, as required by N.C.

SUBJECT: Notice of Violation/Notice of Intent to Enforce
North Carolina General Statute Violations
NOV-2012-DV-0096
Facility#01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On April 24, 2012 Ms. Melissa Rosebrock performed an unanaou.nced follow-up visit at Triple
W Farms. This visit was the result of the violation described in a June 2011 Notice of
Violation/Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOV/N01) letter sent from the Division of Water
Quality's (DWQ)Central office in Raleigh.
Recall that the June 2011 NOV/NOI advised you of your continued violation of North Carolina
General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.10C which requires all animal operations with more than 100
confined cattle to obtain permit coverage. You were to submit a complete permit application or
permanently reduce the number of confined cattle at Triple W Farms to less than 100 and to
submit a written response to our office. To date, the Division has not received a written response
regarding the cattle herd size, nor a complete Cattle Waste Management System Permit
Application. A partial application was submitted in 2010, but was returned to you as incomplete
after required additional information was not submitted.
Two violations were observed during Ms. Rosebrock's visit of April 24. 2012:
1) Animal waste was illegally discharging from the concrete cattle lot and flowing downhill
into Mary's Creek (Class C,NSW).

April 27,2012
Page 2 of 3
2)At least 225 dairy animals were documented to be in varickus stalls, dry packs, barns, etc.
on April 24,2012. On-site stocking records indicate that the milking herd numbered 215 last
month while the total herd size was 300. On-site milk production records also suggest that
the number of dairy cattle at Triple W Farms has been above the 100-confined cattle
threshold since at least January 2012.
Violations and Corrective Actions
1) The unpermitted discharge cited above violates NC General Statute (NCGS) 143-
215.l(a) which reads "Activities for Which Permits Required.—No person shall do any of the
following things or carry out any of the following activities unless that person has received a
permit from the Commission and has complied with all conditions set forth in the permit: (1)
Make any outlets into the waters of the State."
It is our understanding that you are going to temporarily exclude animal waste from the
stream by constructing one or two earthen dams. It is our expectation that you have also
begun work towards a permanent solution to the discharge.
2) Maintaining more than 100 confined cattle violates NCGS 143-215.1013 and 143-
215.10C, which state that any agricultural farming activity involving 100 or more
confined cattle is considered an "animal operation" which requires application for
coverage under a Cattle Waste Management System General Permit.
You must submit the attached "State Application for New or Expanding Animal Waste
Operations" and all supporting documentation. Please note that the application is to be
completed using information from a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP). Once the application has been completed and signed, the original and two
copies of the application must be returned (along with three copies of the entire
CAWMP)to:
North Carolina Division of Water Quality
Aquifer Protection Section
Animal Feeding Operations Unit
1636 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,NC 27699-1636
Written Response
This office is considering an enforcement action against Triple W Farms for the above
referenced violations. If you wish to present an explanation for the violations, or if you believe
there are other factors which should be considered; please send such information to me in writing
within ten (10) days following receipt of this letter. Our office will review your response, and if
an enforcement action is still deemed appropriate, will forward your response to the Director, for
consideration. Your written response should be sent to my attention at the address shown on the
letterhead.

Please be advised that in addition to a recommendation for a civil penalty assessment, the
Division is considering further actions, including an injunction to require that the number of
confined cattle be decreased to less than 100 until a permit is obtained. Additionally, be aware
that NCGS provide for penalties of up to $25,000 per day per violation as well as criminal
penalties for violations of state environmental laws and regulations.

Written Response to Notice of Violation Notice of Intent to Enforce Received on May$ 2012
Dear Ms. Knight:
I appreciate the opportunity to provide a response to your letter dated April 27, 2012, which I
received on May $, 2012. In summary, I wish to provide additional information addressing
items i) through iv) below and hope that the Division of Water Quality will provide me with a
period of time during which to obtain permit coverage without pursuing enforcement actions.
i) clarify observation #1 (discharge from cattle lot) outlined in your letter and
demonstrate the actions Triple W Farms ("TWF") has taken to mitigate observation
#1,
ii) update you on progress TWF has made towards facility construction that is part of
the plan that will be submitted with an updated permit application,
Hi) provide you with an anticipated time frame for submission of an updated application
and
iv) provide you with additional information related to extenuating circumstances which
have impacted construction and submission of an updated application.
i) Observation #1 outlined in your letter states that "Animal waste was illegally discharging
from the concrete cattle lot and flowing downhill into Mary's Creek.". Enclosed as Exhibit 1 are
pictures of the area Ms. Rosebrock observed during her visit. Since completion of the barn
described below, the majority of the cattle have been housed in the new barn and thus the area
Ms. Rosebrock observed is used minimally and any rainwater flowing from the area has little
exposure to manure. Nevertheless, in order to mitigate the discharge concern you have
observed, we have built a temporary earthen dam to stop the lot water from entering the
stream. See enclosed picture of the temporary earthen dam. Mr. Larry Graham is designing
more structures to permanently control all lot run off.

r
ii)TWF has been working with Mr. Larry Graham, P.E., of Environmental Engineering Services,
since January 2010 on development of a complete application in order for TWF to obtain permit
coverage. In April 2010 TWF sold fifty cows to make it possible to construct a 102 foot by 317
foot barn (32,334 sq ft). Construction of this barn took all of 2010 to complete. This barn covers
a 200 foot feed bunk and provides for added manure storage in the form of a pack barn. This
was the initial phase of TWF's plan to control the run off from our cattle feeding operation. This
barn significantly reduced the time per day the cows spend on the area of the lot where
rainwater control has yet to be implemented.
In April 2011,TWF started and completed a manure storage pit at the end of the feed bunk,
designed by Mr. Graham. This effort has put TWF closer to controlling all water from our cattle
feeding operation. Please see enclosed pictures of the new barn and manure storage facility.
iii) As mentioned above, we are working with Mr. Larry Graham on various aspects of the plan
to control all water from our cattle feeding operation. We will update the partial application
sent to you in 2010. We are working in an expedited manner to submit an updated application.
As part of the process of updating the application, I would like to schedule a time to discuss by
phone the outstanding information needed for the application.
iv) During 2010 and 2011 my father George S. Woody, who was born and lived on this farm his
entire life, suffered various ailments including a knee injury which led to surgery and an
extended stay in a rehabilitation center in Burlington, North Carolina. I spent a considerable
amount of time caring for my father including taking him to doctor visits, grocery shopping and
time spent at the rehabilitation center/nursing home. He passed away April 3, 2012. The time
spent caring for my father impacted the speed at which I have been able to implement the
complete plan to control all water from the cattle feeding operation.
In conclusion, I want you to know that I take compliance with North Carolina environmental
statutes seriously and have been working diligently (even before the June 2011 letter as
evidenced by the construction of the barn described above during 2010) to complete the
necessary construction and permitting in order to be ir: a position to grow Triple W Farms in
compliance with North Carolina statutes. I appreciate your consideration of the circumstances
and hope that the Division of Water Quality will provide me with a period of time during
which to complete the process already begun and to obtain permit coverage without pursuing
enforcement actions so that North Carolina will continue to have family farms that contribute to
the economic vitality of the state.
Sincerely,
a

Melissa,
Attached please find copies of the NOV/NOls for the Woody and Welch farms in your region. Both were given an option
to either apply for permit with complete application with supporting documentation or drop permanently below
threshold animal numbers. Woody letter went out on June 16, 2011 and Welch letter on December 15, 2011. 1 have a
green card for Welch but not for Woody. However, we did receive a manure storage pit design from Larry Graham on
behalf of Mr. Wood on August 2, 2011. Nothing else was received from either one of them since.
In order for us to go ahead with further process and stay current with the status of these cases, Keith and I thought
maybe you can do fresh site visits to these places to confirm/verify that they have not gone below threshold
permanently.We will then follow-up with another NOI with a shorter deadline.
Please call if we need to discuss this further.Thanks.

Dear Mr. Woody:
On April 26, 2010, the Division of Water Quality received your application for the coverage
under State General permit for Existing Animal Waste Operations. A preliminary review of the
permit application shows the following required items missing in the application package:
I. Permit Application: many items on the main permit application (such as Item 1.9, 2.4, 3.1, 3.2,
3.3, and 6.) were left blank and need to be completed. Please be sure to check each item, fill in
the information or write NIA (not applicable).
2. Animal Waste Plan Management Plan Certification (AWMPC): Many portions of the AWMPC
form were incomplete and need to be completed and certified by technical specialists with

SUBJECT: Notice of Violation I Notice of Intent to Enforce
NOV-2009-SS-0021 "Removal of Best Usage" and "Other Wastes' Stream Standard Violations
Farm #01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On May 1, 2009 Ms. Melissa Rosebrock from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Winston-Salem Regional
Office (WSRO) performed an announced follow-up inspection at Triple W Farms. On the date of this inspection, Staff
observed sludge worms, foam, waste odor, and waste and/or sediment solids in several on-farm segments of an
unnamed tributary to Mary's Creek.-Sediment and waste was 2-8 inches deep in Mary's Creek due to severe stream bank
erosion and denuded riparian.buffer caused by excessive cattle traffic in approximately 2,800 linear feet of steam. The
following stream standard violations were documented:
(1) Removal of Best Usage - The stream impacts noted above conslilute a violation of 15A NCAC 2B
•0211 (2), which states: "The waters shalt be suitable for aquatic life propagation and maintenance of
biological integrity, wildlife, and secondary recreation, and agriculture. Sources of water pollution which
preclude any of these uses on either a short-term or long-term basis will be considered to be violating a
water quality standard."
(2) Other Wastes Violation - The deposition of solids to surface waters is a violation of 15A NCAC 2B
.0211(3)(f) which states: "Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes; only such amounts as
shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation or to aquatic life and wildlife or
adversely affect the palatability of fish, aesthetic quality or impair the wafers for any designated uses,"
These violations are of particular interest since the affected sections of Mary's Creek are classified as class C
NSW waters of the State. Nutrient sensitive waters (NSW) are to be controlled for the magnitude, duration, and frequency
of excessive growths of microscopic or macroscopic vegetation due to nutrients such as phosphorous or nitrogen.

Inspection Date: 05/01/2009 Inspection Type: Compliance Inspection Reason for Visit: Follow-up
Inspection Summary:
1_The discharge of animal waste was observed from a leak in the pipe carrying waste from the parlor to the concrete pit.The pipe
needs to be repaired immediately.Waste from the discharge had not yet reached surface waters.
3. Red sludge worms,foam,waste odor,and waste/sediment solids were observed in various streams around the farm.Sediment and
waste was 2-8 inches deep in most places due to stream bank erosion caused by excessive cattle traffic in and around the streams
and denuded pastures.
6. Concrete parlor waste pit and blue"Harvestore"tank need to be addressed in a CAWMP if they are to be used.Concrete pit has
about 2.5 days of storage per Mr.Woody. He uses a 3000 or 3500 gallon(he wasn't certain which)honey wagon with which to apply
the waste from the concrete pit. He is applying waste to Johnson grassidrilled sorghum fields that will be chopped for silage in August.
He applies waste to annual rye in the winter which is then harvested for silage in the late spring.Mr.Woody gives animal waste to
Stephen Israel(sp.?)for a hay crop and then buys hay and shell corn from Mr. Israel and others.
7. &9.The blue tank will need to be retrofitted with a new pipe to carry lot waste from the existing junction box into the tank.Junction
box will need to be cleaned out as well.Several feet of guttering will be needed to divert rainwater from lot.Several linear feet of berm
will be needed to contain waste to the lot.
10.Fields to be utilized for application will need to have buffers established.
28.Facility is maintaining more than 100 cattle(threshold limit)and has failed to apply for or obtain the required permit.Approximately
160 dairy cattle were onsite today.
33. DWQ will need to inspect this facility for compliance again after CAWMP is implemented and cattle are excluded from streams.
DWQ will send Mr.Woody a copy of this inspection as well as a copy of the 2/26109 inspection by email to: [e-mail]

Hi Melissa,
Just wanted to give you an update on the Harold Woody Farm.

We walked all of the streams and talked about the project. Perry said he would review it and let us
know if they
Would be interested in it as a project.
called Perry yesterday on June 24. He said his staff were still in the review process, they were
interested especially if they could
Get some additional stream area from neighboring farms. I told him I would check with the Wendell
Woody farm directly upstream and
See if they may be interested.
I will be on vacation the week of the 4th, but hope to follow up on thing after that.

Facility#01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
-On February 26, 2009 a representative from the State's Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Winston-Salem
Regional Office (WSRO) investigated a complaint alleging the confinement of more than 100 cattle at Triple W Farms. On
the date of our initial inspection, staff observed at least 160 cattle being maintained on a feedlot located at the above
address. North Carolina General Statutes (NCGS) define a "feedlot" as:
a lot or building or combination of lots and buildings intended for the confined feeding, breeding, raising, or
holding of animals and either specifically designed as a confinement area in which animal waste may accumulate,or
where the concentration of animals is such that an established vegetative cover cannot be maintained."
Our records indicate that on October 15, 1998 you signed a "Request for Removal of Registration"form indicating
that your operation was below the 100-confined cattle threshold. The form states, in part, "Any expansion to this facility
would require me to apply for, and obtain a permit prior to expansion." The Division of Environmental Health's milk
production records also suggest that the number of dairy cattle at Triple W Farms has been steadily increasing above the
100-confined cattle threshold since early 2006. Per NCGS 143-215.108 and 143-215.10C, any agricultural farming
activity involving 100 or more confined cattle is considered
� an "animal operaation" requirinlp� application for coverage under
a /ante Waste
Management System Gen -ef-m 7-T-o4ate-,4he-Divislibn_11Y�.s not_mseive4-a
W Farms.
This office is considering an enforcement action against Triple W Farms for the above referenced violation. If you
have justification that this violation was caused by circumstances beyond your control, or have an explanation that you
wish to present, please respond in writing within ten (10) days following receipt of this notice. Your response should be
----=—sent to--my-attention-at-the address-shown-on-the letterhead:The WSRO will review your-response-and-forward it to-the--
Director, along with the enforcement package, for consideration.

per day. Additionally, you should expect DWQ staff to re-visit your farm in the near future to assess for any
additional or potential violations of the State's water quality standards or regulations. If you have any

Dear HAshevilleld Woody:
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 may be
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 $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 receive approval from the Division of Water Quality prior to stocking animals
to that level. Threshold numbers of animals are as follows:
Swine 250
Confined Cattle 100
Horses 75
Sheep 1,000
Poultry with a li uid wastes stem 30,00D
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our
staff at(919)733-5093 ext 571.

Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
Triple W Farms
Facility Number: l-10
Alamance County
Dear Harold Woody:
. In accordance with State Regulations(15A NCAC 2H.0217(a)(1)(E))adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission on February 1, 1993,the owner of the subject facility was required to submit a
Certification Form for the facility's animal waste management system by December 31, 1997.
In a letter dated February 11, 1998,received by you on February 18, 1998,this office advised you that
we had no record of having received the required Certification for the subject facility. Our letter further
requested that you provide this office with an explanation as to why this Certification was not submitted as
required. This explanation was due by March 20, 1998. To date we have received no response from you.
Any existing facility owner which did not submit the required certification by the deadline is no longer
deemed permitted to operate their animal waste management system, Therefore,if the certification was not
submitted as required and the facility is still in operation, this facility is being operated without a valid
permit. N.C.G.S. 143-215.E(b)allows the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources to take appropriate enforcement actions for this violation for as long as the violation continues.
As per Senate Bill 1217,which was ratified on June 21, 1996,the Environmental Management
Commission(EMC)may enter into a special agreement with facilities that did not meet the December 31,
{ 1997 deadline. These special agreements can only be issued to facility owners which signed up for assistance
with their local Soil and Water Conservation District Office by September 1, 1996 and which can
demonstrate that they made a good faith effort to meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. The special
agreement,if issued,would contain a specific schedule for the facility to follow to develop and/or implement
an approved animal waste management plan. Attached is an application for a special agreement between the
EMC and the subject facility. If you can demonstrate that this facility can meet the conditions for a special
agreement,you may send this request along with your explanation as to why the plan has not been developed
and implemented.

SUBJECT: Notice o iolation
Designation of Operator in Charge
Triple W Farms
Facility Number 01-I0
Alamance County
Dear Mr.Woody:
You were notified by letter dated December 5, 1996, that you were required to designate a certified animal waste
management system operator as Operator in Charge for the subject facility by January 1, 1997. Enclosed with that
letter was an Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing
Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for
Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Our records indicate that these
completed Forms have not yet been returned to our office.
As was explained in the previous letter, a training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste
management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry (with a liquid waste system). Therefore owners of
these systems were allowed to request that they be issued temporary certifications until December 31, 1997. All that
was required to receive this temporary certification was the completion of the Application Form.
For you convenience, we are sending you additional copies of the Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically
for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste
Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management
System Operator. Please return this completed Form to this office as soon as possible but in no case later than April
25, 1997. This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in locating a certified
operator.
Please note that failure to designate an Operator in Charge of your animal waste management system, is a violation
of N.C.G.S.90A-47.2 and you will be assessed a civil penalty unless an appropriately certified operator is designated.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility and liability for
any past or future violations for your failure to designate an appropriate Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please contact our Technical Assistance and Certification Group at

Dear Harold ,
On March b , 1997 , Phil Ross and I met with you to discuss
what you would need to do to be in compliance with the
letter ( NOTICE OF VIOLATION ) you received from the Division
of Water Quality ( DWQ ) dated January 22 , 1997 . The areas of
concern in DWQ 's letter were the discharges of waste from
the feedlot areas and the runoff from the trench silo . As
stated in their letter discharges from either of these areas
would be considered in excess of Best Management Practices .
We ,have contacted Tommy Burchette , NRCS Engineering
Technician , Yadkinville , to assist with the plan for
complying with this violation . He is scheduled to come on
April 3 , 1997 , Thursday at 1 : 30 .
As .stated in your letter from DWQ , reducing your number of
cows below 100 may change what is needed but a plan
addressing the areas of concern must be. prepared .
Please contact us if you have any questions .

Larry,
Thanks for your emails. Regardless of Mr. Woody's plans, it is DWQ's expectation that-any current discharges have
been abated and that he has eliminated the potential for any future direct discharges to waters of the State. The
operation has been in non-compliance for several years. As such, it is my hope that Mr. Woody is working diligently
to become compliant with State and US environmental regulations. Please let me know if you or he have questions or
need clarification regarding his responsibilities and water quality requirements.

Subject: Triple W. Farms
Hi Melissa. FYI - For some months I have been working with Triple W. Farms on a long term solution to their stormwater/manure
management situation. Last week I met with Harold Woody to discuss some ideas and to make some directional decisions. As
you may know animal feed prices have soared as of late and are expected to continue increasing because of the drought
conditions in the mid-west. This has put even more financial pressure on Triple W. Farms, as I am sure it has with all livestock
farmers. Harold wants to continue working toward a final solution but will have to do so at a pace he can afford. I just wanted you
to know that I am still working for the farm but do not have a final plan yet put together for manure contaminated stormwater
containment. I am hoping things will work out so we can finalize at least a containment plan by the end of 2012.
If you have any questions about this process please feel free to let me know. As always thank-you for your assistance.

FROM: Charles Wakild,P.E.
SUBJECT: Request for Injunctive Relief
Mr. Harold Woody
Triple W Farms
3545 East Greensboro-Chapel Hill Highway
Snow Camp,NC 27349
Alamarice County
On October 15, 1998,Mr. Harold Woody submitted a"Request for Removal from
Registration"form to DWQ. This form indicated that Mr. Woody was reducing the herd size of
his dairy operation to below 100 cattle. As a result of this herd reduction, Mr. Woody was not
required to obtain a permit under G.S. 143-215.10C(a).
Staff of the Winston-Salem Regional Office Division of Water Quality(WSRO-DWQ)
visited the Triple W Farms on February 26,2009 in response to a complaint alleging that the
dairy was maintaining more than 100 confined cattle without an animal waste management
system permit, in violation of G.S. 143-215.10C. The threshold violation was confirmed by
DWQ staff observation, conversations with Mr. Woody, and through milk production records.
Mr. Woody confirmed that he had been maintaining more than 100 confined cattle for more than
two years. Staff visited Triple W Farms again on May 1, 2009 to assess for environmental
impacts. Visual observations indicate that 2-8 inches of sediment and waste has been deposited
into Mary's Creek due to the impact from approximately 2800 linear feet of severely eroded and
denuded stream banks and riparian areas. We also noted that at least 160 cattle have access to the
stream, which is a class C NSW water. The stream was observed to contain algal growth as well
as foam, sludge worms, and a waste odor.
On February 16, 2010, DWQ assessed Mr. Woody a civil penalty of$9,092.06 for
operating an animal waste management system without a required permit and for discharge into
at least 2,800 linear feet of stream.

Mr. Woody did apply for an animal waste management system permit on May 27,2010.
This permit application was missing several required items, such a Certified Animal Waste
Management Plan(CAWMP) and a waste storage pond design. A request for additional items
was-sent to Mr. Woody, however he did not respond with the required information. The
application was returned as incomplete on February 16, 2011. Another NOV was issued to Mr.
Woody on June 16, 2011 for operating without a valid permit.
On April 24,2012,DWQ staff again inspected the Triple W Farms facility and found
animal waste was illegally discharging from the concrete cattle lot and flowing downhill into
Mary's Creek(Class C,NSW), and at least 225 dairy animals were documented to be in various
stalls, dry packs, barns, etc. On-site stocking records indicate that the milking-herd numbered
215 in March 2012,while the total herd size was 300. On-site records indicate that the herd size
at Triple W Farms has exceeded 100 confined cattle since 2006, in violation of G.S. 143-
215.1 OC(a).
Due to the fact that Mr. Woody does not have a'permanent structure to store the waste
water from the milking parlor,DWQ expects that this.farm will continue to illegally discharge in
the future. In addition, Mr. Woody has yet to secure a valid CAWMP as required by G.S. 143-
215.1 OC(e), or submit a complete application for a animal waste management system permit. As
a result, he continues to operate over 100 confined cattle in violation of G.S. 143-215.1OC(a).
Please review the attached file and initiate actions as appropriate to remove this imminent
threat including,but not limited to',preliminary injunctive relief.

Ref: NOV-2012-DV-0095, Facility#01-10, Permit Number AWD10010.
Dear Ms. Knight.
As you may know, Mr. Harold Woody (owner of the Triple W. Farms) contracted with Environmental
Engineering Services (EES)over a year ago to assist with a comprehensive plan of action related to his
dairy's animal waste management plan. Early in the project EES met with Mr_ Woody and Mr. Phil
Ross (Alamance County NRCS)to discuss the various project objectives and to establish a division of
duties. At that meeting we primarily discussed the items mentioned in the May 27, 2010 letter'from
NCDENR to Mr. Woody. Based on-that meeting the NRCS and EES agreed on Ia division'of work to
ultimately develop Triple W. Farms a comprehensive Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP).
Below you-will find a brief summary of the work that has taken place at the farm andwork planned to
take place in the very near futurel'
1. Before EES became involved with the project, Triple W. Farms had begun taking action to better
manage their animal waste. A large shed roof was constructed over the cow feeding and lounging
area and this in itself served to reduce animal waste run-off. According to Mr. Woody the
construction of this shed has also reduced the amount of time the cows are on open feed-lot and
thus significantly reducing the amount of manure run-off getting into the creek. 1 believe this to be
a logical conclusion.
2. Triple W. Farms did not have a dry stack for a large portion of their scraped manure, so the need
for such was paramount. EES worked with Triple W. Farms to design a new concrete dry stack for
said manure storage under the new free-stall shed. The new dry stack was built during the summer
of 2011 and has afforded Triple W. Farms considerable flexibility in storing manure since that
time. Information related to this dry stack design was sent to DWQ on August 2, 2011. EES has
since 'inspected the as-constructed dry stack but has not sent in the final certification on its
construction. EES plans to'send in this certification when the CAWMP is complete: It is my
belief that the new dry stack has resulted in better land application planning on Triple W_ Farm's
3. In 2011 EES began-work an a stormwater/manure management plan for the farm. EES has
recently resumed this evaluation with-the goal of developing a long range or comprehensive plan.
This work includes potentially reducing run-off volume and storing manure laden run-off. While
EES has not been involved with the design or evaluation of any temporary stormwater/manure run-

•
off management efforts (i.e. discharges associated with Mary's Creek), it is my understanding that
Mr. Woody has taken temporary measures to eliminate or at least minimize that discharge.
4. Once both the solid and liquid waste issues at the farm have been completely evaluated and a
comprehensive management strategy finalized, EES will work with the Alamance County NRCS
(Mr. Phil Ross) to merge this information into the animal waste utilization and crop management
plan for the farm. When manure collection, storage, and utilization issues are addressed inside a
CAWMP, said details will be submitted to DWQ for review and an animal waste permit requested.
It should be mentioned that building the large shed over the free-stall area and constructing the new dry
stack was costly for Mr. Woody. I believe it became necessary for Triple W_ Farms to pay off some of
this accrued expense in order to plan for round 2 of design and construction. Let me reiterate that EES
has now begun that second phase of work.
I also think it is important to note that since our involvement (to the best of my knowledge)Triple W.
Farms has not willfully ignored or delayed moving ahead with their animal waste management
improvements for any reason other than economics. Being a small business can often require
expensive improvements to be implemented slowly. I also know Mr. Woody has had some family
issues that took a considerable amount of his time earlier this year and probably delayed his plans for
waste management improvements. While I am not making excuses for any delays, I wanted you to
have as much information as possible from which to base your NOV decisions.
I trust this letter has been useful in updating you on our part in developing a CAWMP for Triple W.
Farms. If all goes according to plan, I hope to have the stormwater/manure management structures
designed before July I and subsequently work with the NRCS on the crop management plan update
after that. Construction of said improvements will wait until your office has had time to review our
recommendations.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Written Response to Notice of Violation Notice of Intent to Enforce Received on May 8 2012
Dear Ms. Knight:
I appreciate the opportunity to provide a response to your letter dated April 27, 2012, which I
received on May 8, 2012. In summary, I wish to provide additional information addressing
items i) through iv) below and hope that the Division of Water Quality will provide me with a
period of time during which to obtain permit coverage without pursuing enforcement actions.
i) clarify observation #1 (discharge from cattle lot) outlined in your letter and
demonstrate the actions Triple W Farms ("TWF") has taken.to mitigate observation
#1,
ii) update you on progress TWF has made towards facility construction that is part of
the plan that will be submitted with an updated permit application,
iii) provide you with an anticipated time frame for submission of an updated application
and
iv) provide you with additional information related to extenuating circumstances which
have impacted construction and submission of an updated application.
i) Observation 91 outlined in your letter states that"Animal waste was illegally discharging
from the concrete cattle lot and flowing downhill into Mary's Creek.". Enclosed as Exhibit 1 are
pictures of the area Ms. Rosebrock observed during her visit. Since completion of the barn
described below, the majority of the cattle have been housed in the new barn and thus the area
Ms. Rosebrock observed is used minimally and any rainwater flowing from the area has little
exposure to manure. Nevertheless, in order to mitigate the discharge concern you have
observed, we have built a temporary earthen dam to stop the lot water from entering the
stream. See enclosed picture of the temporary earthen dam. Mr. Larry Graham is designing
more structures to permanently control all lot run off.

0 e
ii) TWF has been working with Mr. Larry Graham, P.E., of Environmental Engineering Services,
since January 2010 on development of a complete application in order for TWF to obtain permit
coverage. In April 2010 TWF sold fifty cows to make it possible to construct a 102 foot by 317
foot barn (32,334 sa ft). Construction of this barn took all of 2010 to complete. This barn covers
a 200 foot feed bunk and provides for added manure storage in the form of a pack barn. This
was the initial phase of TWF's plan to control the run off from our cattle feeding operation. This
barn significantly reduced the time per day the cows spend on the area of the lot where
rainwater control has yet to be implemented.
In April 2011, TWF started and completed a manure storage pit at the end of the feed bunk,
designed by Mr. Graham. This effort has put TWF closer to controlling all water from our cattle
feeding operation. Please see enclosed pictures of the new barn and manure storage facility.
iii) As mentioned above, we are working with Mr. Larry Graham on various aspects of the plan
to control all water from our cattle feeding operation. We will update the partial application
sent to you in 2010. We are working in an expedited manner to submit an updated application.
As part of the process of updating the application, I would like to schedule a time to discuss by
phone the outstanding information needed for the application.
iv) During 2010 and 2011 my father George S. Woody, who was born and lived on this farm his
entire life, suffered various ailments including a knee injury which led to surgery and an
extended stay in a rehabilitation center in Burlington, North Carolina. I spent a considerable
amount of time caring for my father including taking him to doctor visits, grocery shopping and
time spent at the rehabilitation center/nursing home. He passed away April 3, 2012. The time
spent caring for my father impacted the speed at which I have been able to implement the
complete plan to control all water from the cattle feeding operation.
In conclusion, I want you to know that I take compliance with North Carolina environmental
statutes seriously and have been working diligently (even before the June 2011 letter as
evidenced by the construction of the barn described above during 2010) to complete the
necessary construction and permitting in order to be in a position to grow Triple W Farms in
compliance with North Carolina statutes. I appreciate your consideration of the circumstances
and hope that the Division of Water Quality will provide me with a period of time during
which to complete the process already begun and to obtain permit coverage without pursuing
enforcement actions so that North Carolina will continue to have family farms that contribute to
the economic vitality of the state.
Sincerely,

Hello Melissa. I spoke to Mr. Harold Woody on April 25 and he asked me to resume work at his farm for long term
stormwaterlmanure control/capture design. We started this work last year but had to stop the project for a while. Harold also
said he was going to take some temporary measures to control his stormwaterlmanure run-off, but I am not completely sure what
all he has in mind for this measure. I will need to coordinate my work with the Alamance County NRCS so everything with the
water storage and crop management plan matches.
I just wanted you to know the work has resumed. I will keep you posted.

North Carolina General Statute Violations
NOV-2012-DV-0096
Facility#01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On April 24, 2012 Ms. Melissa Rosebrock performed an unannounced follow-up visit at Triple
W Farms. This visit was the result of the violation described in a June 2011 Notice of
Violation/Notice of Intent to Enforce (NOVINOI) letter sent from the Division of Water
Quality's (DWQ) Central office in Raleigh.
Recall that the June 2011 NOVINOI advised you of your continued violation of North Carolina
General Statute (NCGS) 143-215.10C which requires all animal operations with more than 100
confined cattle to obtain permit coverage. You were to submit a complete permit application or
permanently reduce the number of confined cattle at Triple W Farms to less than 100 and to
submit a written response to our office. To date, the Division has not received a written response
regarding the cattle herd size, nor a complete Cattle Waste Management System Permit
Application. A partial application was submitted in 2010, but was returned to you as incomplete
after required additional information was not submitted.
Two violations were observed during Ms. Rosebrock's visit of April 24. 2012:
1)Animal waste was illegally discharging from the concrete cattle lot and flowing downhill
into Mary's Creek (Class C,NSW).

2)At least 225 dairy animals were documented to be in various stalls, dry packs, barns, etc.
on April 24, 2012. On-site stocking records indicate that the milking herd numbered 215 last
month while the total herd size was 300. On-site milk production records also suggest that
the number of dairy cattle at Triple W Farms has been above the I00-confined cattle
threshold since at least January 2012.
Violations and Corrective Actions
1) The unpermitted discharge cited above violates NC General Statute (NCGS) 143-
215.1(a) which reads"Activities for Which Permits Required.—No person shall do any of the
following things or carry out any of the following activities unless that person has received a
permit from the Commission and has complied with all conditions set forth in the permit: (1)
Make any outlets into the waters of the State."
It is our understanding that you are going to temporarily exclude animal waste from the
stream by constructing one or two earthen dams. It is our expectation that you have also
begun work towards a permanent solution to the discharge.
2) Maintaining more than 100 confined cattle violates NCGS 143-215.1013 and 143-
215.10C, which state that any agricultural farming activity involving 100 or more
confined cattle is considered an "animal operation" which requires application for
coverage under a Cattle Waste Management System General Permit.
You must submit the attached "State Application for New or Expanding Animal Waste
Operations" and all supporting documentation. Please note that the application is to be
completed using information from a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP). Once the application has been completed and signed, the original and two
copies of the application must be returned (along with three copies of the entire
CAWMP)to:

Please be advised that in addition to a recommendation for a civil penalty assessment, the
Division is considering further actions, including an injunction to require that the number of
confined cattle be decreased to less than 100 until a permit is obtained. Additionally, be aware
that NCGS provide for penalties of up to $25,000 per day per violation as well as criminal
penalties for violations of state environmental laws and regulations.

Just to follow up, the Welch NOV was sent in December, and he received it on 12/19/2011, He did not respond to the
NOV. 5o I would feel comfortable going straight to enforcement if he is still operation and above threshold.
The Woody NOV was sent in June, so there is a timeliness issue with any enforcement at this point (Ted will likely have
an issue with the 4 months on Welch, but I can deal with that). Also, we don't have a green card from the NOV, so I just
dropped the ball all around on this one. If you can confirm that he is still operating at over 100 cattle, we can send one
more NOV with a 30-day deadline, and actually follow up quickly with enforcement from there.
Thanks,

Melissa,
Attached please find copies of the NOV/NOls for the Woody and Welch farms in your region. Both were given an option
to either apply for permit with complete application with supporting documentation or drop permanently below

Hello Phil. I hope all is well. I am currently working with Harold Woody to organize the waste collection and storage
details at his farm. We are just getting started so it will be a little while before I can send you any waste estimations and
storage plans. I will be back in touch when I have something we can evaluate and would very much like your input.
According to my understanding, once we get settled on waste amounts and storage you will help Harold and update his
waste utilization plan.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Melissa. I have a copy of what Clean East did for Mr_ Woody. I can't say at this time if it is sufficient, but I will work
with Phil on this. I plan to put together some waste generation values and a workable plan for waste collection and
storage and then get back to Harold to see if it works for him. Then I will get up with Phil to go over some of the details
and any plan changes. I was out at the farm today and had a very productive meeting with Mr. Woody.
I will be back in touch as we make progress.

the CAWMP. Seems like the Plan they did was "lacking" though. Might be worth checking.

Triple W Farms
Farm # 01-0010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On May 27, 2010 the permit application for your Cattle Waste Management System was returned as
incomplete, in accordance with the 15A NCAC 2T .0107(b). You have been notified of the permit
requirement for your farm several times, including the civil penalty assessment of February 16, 2010,
and the recent letter dated February 16, 2011. As you are aware, permit coverage is required for all
animal operations with 100 of more confined cattle.
Violation 1:
As a result of the above mentioned items, you are in continuing violation of N.C. General Statute 143-
215.1 OC, which requires all animal operations with more than 100 confined cattle to obtain permit
coverage.
Required Corrective Action for Violation 1:
This violation must he corrected within 30 days of receipt of this letter.. This violation can be corrected
in one of two ways:
Option 1: Submit a complete permit application to my attention at the address at the bottom of
this page. Please refer to Page 2 of 5 of the permit application for a list of required items. A
blank permit application is attached to this Notice. Submittal of an incomplete permit
application will not correct this violation.

Option 2: Permanently reduce the number of confined cattle at your farm to less than 100. As
stated above. N.C. General Statute 143-215.10C requires permit coverage of all animal
operations with more than 100 confined cattle. If you reduce the number of cattle to less than
100, you will no longer be subject to the permit requirement as long as the number of confined
cattle remains below an annual average of 100 head.
You are required to take necessary action to correct the above noted violation, and submit a
written response to this Notice with 30 days of receipt of this letter. Please include in your response
all corrective actions taken and a schedule for completion of any corrective actions already taken.
As a result of the violations in this Notice, this office is considering recommendation of a civil penalty
assessment to the Director of the Division. If you wish to present an explanation for the violation cited,
or if you believe there are other factors which should be considered, please send such information to me
in writing within 30 days of receipt of this letter. Your response will be reviewed, and, if an
enforcement action is still deemed appropriate, it will be forwarded to the Director and included for
consideration.
Please be advised that Operation of your facility without coverage under a valid general permit
constitutes a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to
$25,000 per day.
If you have any questions, please call me at [phone].

Keith,
Injunction works for me. There was a documented discharge in 1997, followed by an NOV, lots of technical
assistance, and more correspondence from DWQ and NRCS/SWCD regarding what needed to be done to come
into compliance in 1998. Documentation states that he agreed to do what needed to be done.
In 1998 he signed the form stating that he was below 100 cattle and that he wouldn't go back over 100,
There's lots of documentation to back up an intentional increase in numbers since 2006, to which he readily
agreed. In 2009 we've got him on another discharge AND operating w/out a permit which resulted in civil
penalties. Two official letters from DWQ in 2010 told him to apply for a permit....and it's now 2011.
Good case I think.

It sounds like that in order to force him to apply, it may take another enforcement, or maybe an injunction. I'll talk with
Ted about what the best course may be. If you have any ideas let me know as well.

No, he's way over. He's built some other things...so he can reto-fit or build a WSP, too. He doesn't want to be
below 100 and needs to be forced to get the permit---but that means a holding structure for the pond water
needs to be certified to NRCS standards. That's the hold-up. He built a barn that contains the dry waste. It's
the parlor water that is the issue.

Do you know if Woody is still milking over 100 cows? The financial excuse has gone on long enough in my opinion. He
knew what the rules were.
I feel like we either need to get him a permit or get him below 100 confined cows.

Dear Mr. Woody:
On April 26, 2010, the Division of Water Quality received your application for the coverage
under State General permit for Existing Animal Waste Operations. A preliminary review of the
permit application shows the following required items missing in the application package:
I. Permit Application: many items on the main permit application (such as Item 1.9, 2.4, 3.1, 3.2,
3.3, and 6.) were left blank and need to be completed. Please be sure to check each item, fill in
the information or write N/A (not applicable).
2. Animal Waste Plan Management Plan Certification (AWMPC): Many portions of the AWMPC
form were incomplete and need to be completed and certified by technical specialists with
appropriate designations.
3. Available Storage Capacitv: The original design documents for the waste storage pond are
missing in this application package. Please provide a copy of the design or as-built specifications
of your storage pond to verify the available storage capacity.
4. Phosphorus Evaluation: The current Cattle General Permit requires all new and expanding,
facilities located in watersheds sensitive to nutrient enrichment to provide a completed
phosphorous loss assessment (PLAT) to determine if the facility can comply with the NRCS
phosphorus standards. Such assessment report is missing in your permit package. Please provide
the required assessment for all fields to be used for the land application of animal waste from this
facility.
5. Other documents: An emergency action plan (EAP) for the facility and an Operation and
Maintenance Plan (O & M Plan)for the waste storage and handling system.

I received one copy of a permit application for the Triple W. Farms (Facility No. 01-10) in Alamance County. I
am assuming your office helped put this package together. If so, I will need the following items addressed
before we can accept this package for review:
1. Only one copy of the package was received. We will need at least one additional of this package.
2. The package does not include a completed Animal Waste Management System Certification Form, a
blank copy of which can be found at:

Once we receive these items, we will review the package for completeness and will forward any additional

Please forward these items to my attention by May 7, 2010 at the address below. The package will be

Thanks Larry. Just an FYI, DWQ sent Mr. Woody another letter dated February 16, 2011 reminding him that his
application was returned as incomplete in 2010. He is to make appropriate corrections and re-submit the
permit application within 30 days of receipt of the letter (probably around Feb. 20th?). If he truly is working
towards a complete application, waste plan, and structures to contain the waste, we would probably work
with him on the timeline.
Thanks again for the information.

Subject: Triple W Farms
Hello Melissa. FYI -
met with Mr. Harold Woody with Triple W Farms on Wednesday March 9. Mr. Woody and I discussed his farming
operation, his current regulatory status, farming goals, and a letter he received from DWQ dated 5/27/2010 describing
current deficiencies in the Farm's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). I am now gathering some general
information about the farm to determine what has and has not been done with regards to his CAWMP. Mr. Woody
seems very interested in updating his existing plan and meeting the 2T rules.
Environmental Engineering Services (EES) has not yet been hired by Mr. Woody to help him with his animal waste plan. I
simply wanted you to know he is looking for some professional help with this task. I will let you know if EES contracts with
Mr. Woody, or as soon as it becomes official. I may also be contacting you to see where he stands with your agency.
Best Regards,

SUBJECT: Notice of Violation I Notice of Intent to Enforce
NOV-2009-SS-0021 "Removal of Best Usage" and "Other Wastes" Stream Standard Violations
Farm #01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On May 1, 2009 Ms. Melissa Rosebrock from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Winston-Salem Regional
Office (WSRO) performed an announced follow-up inspection at Triple W Farms. On the date of this inspection, Staff
observed sludge worms, foam, waste odor, and waste and/or sediment solids in several on-farm segments of an
unnamed tributary to Mary's Creek. Sediment and waste was 2-8 inches deep in Mary's Creek due to severe stream bank
erosion and denuded riparian buffer caused by excessive cattle traffic in approximately 2,800 linear feet of steam. The
following stream standard violations were documented-
(1) Removal of Best Usage - The stream impacts noted above constitute a violation of 15A NCAC 2B
.0211 (2), which states: "The waters shall be suitable for aquatic life propagation and maintenance of
biological integrity, wildlife, and secondary recreation, and agriculture. Sources of water pollution which
preclude any of these uses on either a short-term or long-term basis will be considered to be violating a
water quality standard."
(2) Other Wastes Violation - The deposition of solids to surface waters is a violation of 15A NCAC 2B
.0211(3)(0 which states: "Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes: only such amounts as
shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation or to aquatic life and wildlife or
adversely affect the palatability of fish, aesthetic quality or impair the waters for any designated uses."
These violations are of particular interest since the affected sections of Mary's Creek are classified as class C
NSW waters of the State. Nutrient sensitive waters (NSW) are to be controlled for the magnitude, duration, and frequency
' of excessive growths of microscopic or macroscopic vegetation due to nutrients such as phosphorous or nitrogen.

Phil,
I looked at the current WSF (313) to check for any changes. it shows a six month storage period unless
management practices and techniques show that it can be less and in no case less than 6o days. I personally
wouldn't go less than 90 days but prefer 180 days. I recommend looking at the acreage and crop rotations
he will be using to determine if less than 6 months is in his best interest on a management level. Below is the
text from the current standard. As far as I know, DWQ still defers to NRCS standards as the
minimum...Melissa please let me know if that has changed and I missed it.
Storage Period. The storage period is the
maximum length of time anticipated between
emptying events. The minimum storage period
shall be based on the timing required for
environmentally safe waste utilization
considering the climate, crops, soil, equipment,
and local, state, and federal regulations.
A minimum of six (6) months storage is
required except when special management
practices or techniques permit otherwise.
In no case shall a design be developed with
less than 60 days of storage volume unless
the design is supported with a detailed, site specific
water and nutrient budget, approved
by an engineer with appropriate job approval
authority. In such case, the hydraulic loading
evaluation and nutrient budget shall be
considered a part of the design of the waste
storage facility,

Facility#01-10, Permit Number AWD010010
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Woody:
On February 26, 2009 a representative from the State's Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Winston-Salem
Regional Office (WSRO) investigated a complaint alleging the confinement of more than 100 cattle at Triple W Farms. On
the date of our initial inspection, staff observed at least 160 cattle being maintained on a feedlot located at the above
address. North Carolina General Statutes (NCGS) define a "feedlot" as:
"... a lot or building or combination of lots and buildings intended for the confined feeding, breeding, raising, or
holding of animals and either specifically designed as a confinement area in which animal waste may accumulate, or
where the concentration of animals is such that an established vegetative cover cannot be maintained."
Our records indicate that on October 15, 1998 you signed a "Request for Removal of Registration" form indicating
that your operation was below the 100-confined cattle threshold. The form states, in part, "Any expansion to this facility
would require me to apply for, and obtain a permit prior to expansion." The Division of Environmental Health's milk
production records also suggest that the number of dairy cattle at Triple W Farms has been steadily increasing above the
100-confined cattle threshold since early 2006. Per NCGS 143-215.10B and 143-215,10C, any agricultural farming
activity involvin 100 or more confined cattle is considered an "animal operation"requiring application for coverage under

Dear HAshevilleld Woody:
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 214 .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 may be
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$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 receive approval from the Division of Water Quality prior to stocking animals
to that level. "Threshold numbers of animals are as follows:
Swine 250
Confined Cattle 100
Horses 75
Sheep 1,000
Poultry with a liquid wastes stem 30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our

Dear Harold Woody:
In accordance with State Regulations(15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(E)) adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission on February 1, 1993, the owner of the subject facility.was required to submit a
Certification Form for the facility's animal waste management system by December 31, 1997.
In a letter dated February 11, 1998,received by you on February 18, 1998,this office advised you that
we had no record of having received the required Certification for the subject facility. Our letter further
requested that you provide this office with an explanation as to why this Certification was not submitted as
required. This explanation was due by March 20, 1998. To date we have received no response from you.
Any existing facility owner which did not submit the required certification by the deadline is no longer
deemed permitted to operate their animal waste management system. Therefore,if the certification was not
submitted as required and the facility is still in operation,this facility is being operated without a valid
permit. N.C.G.S. 143-215.6(b) allows the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources to take appropriate enforcement actions for this violation for as long as the violation continues.
As per Senate Bill 1217,which was ratified on.Tune 21, 1996,the Environmental Management
Commission(EMC)may enter into a special agreement with facilities that did not meet the December 31,
{ 1997 deadline. These special agreements can only be issued to facility owners which signed up for assistance
with their local Soil and Water Conservation District Office by September 1, 1996 and which can
demonstrate that they made a good faith effort to meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. The special
agreement,if issued,would contain a specific schedule for the facility to follow to develop and/or implement
an approved animal waste management plan. Attached is an application for a special agreement between the
EMC and the subject facility. If you can demonstrate that this facility can meet the conditions for a special

Dear Mr. Woody:
During the month of June we will be planning a follow-up
inspection to see if the discharge has ceased. At this time we
will make a decision as to whether to forward to Raleigh a request
for an enforcement action. As I have mentioned to you in the
past, that regardless of the number of cows that you have you still
can not allow water quality deterioration. You may work with NRCS
to solve the problem or you can hire an independent or you may do
it yourself. As long as you are above the number of cows that
requires you to be registered you must work with an independent
engineer or NRCS.But the problem of the runoff into the creek must
be stopped.
If you should have any questions concerning this matter please

SUBJECT: Notice o Violation
Designation of Operator in Charge
Triple W Farms
Facility Number 01--10
Alamance County
Dear Mr.Woody:
You were notified by letter dated December 5, 1996, that you were required to designate a certified animal waste
management system operator as Operator in Charge for the subject facility by January 1, 1997. Enclosed with that
letter was an Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing
Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for
Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Our records indicate that these
completed Forms have not yet been returned to our office.
As was explained in the previous letter, a training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste
management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry (with a liquid waste system). Therefore owners of
these systems were allowed to request that they be issued temporary certifications until December 31, 1997. All that
was required to receive this temporary certification was the completion of the Application Form.
For you convenience, we are sending you additional copies of the Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically
for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste
Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management
System Operator. Please return this completed Form to this office as soon as possible but in no case later than April
25, 1997. This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in locating a certified
operator.
Please note that failure to designate an Operator in Charge of your animal waste management system, is a violation
of N.C.G.S. 90A-47.2 and you will be assessed a civil penalty unless an appropriately certified operator is designated.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility and liability for
any past or future violations for your failure to designate an appropriate Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please contact our Technical Assistance and Certification Group at

Dear Harold ,
On March 6 , 1997 , Phil Ross and I met with you to discuss
what you would need to do to be in compliance with the
letter ( NOTICE OF VIOLATION ) you received from the Division
of Water Quality ( DWQ ) dated January 22 , 1997 . The areas of
concern in DWQ 's letter were the discharges of waste from
the feedlot areas and the runoff from the trench silo . As
stated in their letter discharges from either of these areas
would be considered in excess of Best Management Practices .
We have contacted Tommy Burchette , MRCS Engineering
Technician , Yadkinville , to assist with the plan for
complying with this violation . He is scheduled to come on
April 3 , 1997 , Thursday at 1 : 30 .
A, stated in your letter from DWQ , reducing your number of
cows below 100 may change what is needed but a plan
addressing the areas of concern must be prepared .
Please contact us if you have any questions .

change what is needed in the plan but a plan addressing the areas
of concern mentioned must be prepared.
You are to have NRCS to contact this office and verify that
you have requested help and that they will be helping you correct
your problem.
If you should have any questions concerning this matter or we
may be of further help please do not hesitate to contact Mr.

I have been made aware that permitted dairy farms are changing ownership with respect to persons

This, generally, puts the new owner, previous owner and the RAGS at odds with each other because
the dairy farm may require upgrading before a permit can be issued.
The Rules Governing Grade A Milk Sanitation 15 A.NCAC 18A .1204 PERMITS REQUIRED states
(a) No person shall produce, process, transport, or distribute Grade','A" milk- without first obtaining
a permit from the Division. A person who complies with the requirements of this-Section shall be

Additionally, to obtain a permit, compliance with the Division of Environmental Management,

Subject: Re: Update?
Hi Melissa. It has been a while since I sent you an update on the Triple W Farms pond construction so I wanted to get
back to you.
Work continues to inch forward slowly, mostly due to wet soil conditions (frequent rainfall). The contractor pulled off the
site for a while to catch a few other jobs -waiting on some drier weather. Right now his earth moving equipment is back
on site but he is still not able to do much. Because this is a stormwaterlmanure catch pond it collects water during each
rain and thus makes us need some prolonged dry weather to get the earth moving finalized. While not complete it is
keeping the stormwaterlmanure mix on site - so that is a good thing.
I collected a few quick measurements on the stormwater pond on Tuesday to get an idea of about how much more work
will be needed. i think the earthmoving is about 80 to 85% complete, but we just can't get a break to finish it
up. However, what has been done so far looks good.
I trust this update has been helpful.

Subject: Re: Update?
Hello Melissa. 1 spoke to Harold yesterday and he gave me a project update. Harold has recently been sick, had
surgery, and was in the hospital for several days; so this has set him back. He is recovering now but having to take it
easy while he heals. I understand he is still trying to work with the cows while he recovers, but this kind of thing can
really slow a person down until they have time to heal.
Harold has contracted with a waste pumper(hauler) about pumping the water out of his pond and getting it dry enough
for the earth moving contractor to finish up. While I believe they are scheduled to get started pumping as early as this
week, I am sure all this will depend on the weather and everyone's schedule - but it is moving forward. Overall the
weather has been a little drier this summer compared to last, but Harold said they had a 2 inch rain recently.
will remain in contact with Harold about the pond progress and let you know when we are getting close to having it
completed. Since it looks like the pond work is picking back up I will go ahead and complete the irrigation design. I hope
we can have some good weather and wrap up this project soon.
I hope this update helps.

Subject: Re: Update?
Melissa. I tried to contact Harold to get an update myself, but have not heard from him as of yet. I am on a semi-hold
since he has not gotten back to me lately on pond construction progress. Last I heard he needed to pump some
stormwater(which contains a little manure) out of the pond so the contractor could finish up with earthmoving. That was
in late spring and Harold was about to finish up with some grain harvesting (I think). He indicated he would refocus on the
pond after the spring harvesting was complete. They could have had some heavy rains up his way since then, but I can't
say for sure. My plans were to finish up on the irrigation system design next, but I have held off until I am sure Harold is
moving toward completion of the pond. Last I saw, the pond was about 85% complete so it should not take too much
more work to get it finished. I don't want to get too far down the road with an irrigation design and those costs until the
pond is about ready to use. I will let you know what I hear back from Harold.
Thanks.

Subject: Re: Triple W. Farms earth moving progress
Hi Melissa. Since I last updated you on the Triple W. Farm pond, progress it has been slow going. Several showers have wetted
the soil and it is slow to dry out this time of year. But the contractor has made some progress. He has almost completed the main
dam but still needs to do a little shaping. There remains more earth to be moved from the pond interior and some more
stormwater diversion work to be completed. As of today much of the soil is wet and very slick so that is hampering progress. But
the rainfall over the last week has not been too heavy so the soils should dry out in a reasonable amount of time. 1t is slow going
but we are moving forward. All the soil compaction tests on the dam have passed the construction criteria thus far.
Hope this update helps.

Melissa. There has been some add ] dam/pond work at the Triple W. Farmsisince I last sent you an update, but the
soils have been slow to dry (unlike summer months) so the work has likewise been slow. Our soil compaction tests have been
good and met or exceeded the minimum standards. Several days the earth moving contractors could not work due to soil
wetness issues. The dam is going up but it has not yet been completed. I am not sure if it will be completed this week or not
since there is rain in the forecast for Friday (November 1). 1 have not heard from Joe Hudyncia on the crop management plans
as of yet, but I think he is working on getting them finalized.
Hope all is well with you.

Melissa. I spoke to the contractor for Triple W. Farms today and it has been too wet for them to work most of last week and so
far this week. The dam is up maybe 4 feet tall, but everything is at a standstill until it dries out. My guess is that the site will be
wet most of this week, but we will just have to wait and see.
Last week I sent Joe Hydyncia some information I calculated about the waste volumes to assist him in his crop management
plan work.
That's all from a soggy Alamance county right now.

Hi Melissa. I was at Triple W. Farms on Friday (October 18) to inspect the pond work. Last week no soil was moved due to the
rain. It also rained on and off on me today (Saturday October 19) so I suspect the soil at TWF also got wet. My guess is if we
have some dry weather between now and all next week the earth moving contractors might can go back to moving soil around
Thursday, but that is up to the contractor.
That is all I have to report for last week.

Melissa. I spoke to the contractor for Triple W. Farms today and it has been too wet for them to work most of last week and so
far this week. The dam is up maybe 4 feet tall, but everything is at a standstill until it dries out. My guess is that the site will be
wet most of this week, but we will just have to wait and see.
Last week I sent Joe Hydyncia some information I calculated about the waste volumes to assist him in his crop management plan
work.

Hi Melissa. I will try to give you a weekly prolbs update on the Triple W. Farms dam. I*Joe will be doing the waste
utilization portion of the plan and I will put his report into the CAWMP form and provide the permit application and certifications in
areas where I have done the work. I suspect the rain today may delay pond earth moving work for several days to come since
they will have to pump out water and let things dry out a little. I know Harold is very busy and may be short handed on the farm,
but I trust he will also update us on day-to-day matters as/if needed.
You are welcome for my assistance and I also appreciate your help on this project.
Should we continue to keep Keith Larick in this update loop since he has taken a new job?

Thanks for the update---it was indeed helpful. As you may/may not know, the construction and waste plan dates
stipulated in the Consent Order (August 2013) have lapsed. That said, Mr. Woody is now making progress towards
the implementation of the items required for compliance and I don't think we want to impede his progress. Until
completion of the waste holding structure would you or Mr. Woody update me each week? Just a few sentences by
email is fine.
Do you know who is writing the CAWMP? Completing the permit application?

Hi Melissa. FYI - Harold Woody is making good progress on his stormwaterlwaste management pond. The earth moving

last Wednesday (October 2) to view the dam"-off trench and to collect a few measurem So far things look good and we
have some good clay soils from which to ma a dam.
just wanted to assure you that now that we have dry weather the pond is being built and earth is being moved every day. We
are supposed to get some rain on Monday (October 7) but we will just have to wait and see if that happens and if it delays
progress any. My guess is that we should have a completed pond sometime in late October or early November, but that
depends on many factors.

Hi Keith. I called the contractor Harold Woody has hired to do the earth moving today (August 28) and got an update. As you
know this summer has been extremely wet and while the soils are drying out a little now, they are still very saturated. Here is a
brief update on the project.
1. Many months ago we held our pre-construction conference but have not been able to move soil due to the constant rain
events.
2. Several weeks ago Harold fenced his cows out of the construction area and the contractor installed a sediment trap down
stream from the pond location in anticipation of construction commencement at the first opportunity.
3. Starting last Monday (August 26)the contractor was finally able to get his equipment to the site and began removing top soil
and some of the spoil.
4. The contractor told me the soils are still very wet so the top soil removal has gone slow so far this week - but at least it is
going. He is also making stormwater diversion berms to keep stormwater out of the pond while under construction,
5. The contractor plans to continue shaping the pond sides and avoid working on the dam right now. This way water can get out
of the pond if it rains. Plus the better soils for dam construction are below the topsoil.
6. Weather permitting, the contractor will be calling me next week to come and view the dam cut off trench. From that point he
will go up with the dam. I will visit the site as needed to keep abreast of the progress and inspect the work.
This is all good news. We just need some dry weather now so he can finish while the iron is hot.
I hope all is well in Raleigh. I will let you know how the work progresses.

Subject: Triple W. Farms
Hi Melissa. I appreciate the update on your visit to Triple W. Farms. I have not visited recently but I am sure it is very wet all over
the farm.
As a point of interest, I just saw a report that said as of the end of yesterday, last month was the second wettest June recorded in
70 years at the RDU airport. It only lacked matching the record rainfall month by about 113 of an inch. l suspect a few local areas
had the wettest June in 70 years since rainfall can vary from local to local. In addition April and May were wetter than usual and
so Triple W. Farm's stormwater containment pond has not been built. I am sure it is no mystery as to why Triple W. Farms can't
build a pond to collect stormwater during such wet weather. Had the pond been started already they would have had to pump
water almost every day from the pond interior and I fear we could also have compromised the dam compaction due to soil
wetness. We can't compact mud. I wanted to mention this so you don't think Triple W. Farms is dragging their feet on this
issue. It just is what it is and we can't change the weather.
I spoke to Harold Woody last Friday evening and as he has said many times over the last few months he desires to get the pond
construction going. His contractor has had equipment on site for well over a month waiting for a dry spell to begin work. Harold
said he would talk to his contractor and see if he could install the down stream sediment trap between rain events to make an
attempt to control sediment, but there is very little he can do to contain stormwater runoff when it rains almost every day. I also
told Harold to do all he could to keep manure solids scraped up and/or somehow contained around the feed bunkers. I am not
sure how he is going to be able to avoid some dissolved nutrient run-off during hard rains; short of building the pond. Perhaps he
can at least contain the non-dissolved solids. There are a few ideas he might use which we discussed.
am not making excuses for the lack of pond construction progress but I simply wanted to state the obvious. With over 10 inches
of rain in June (more than 6 inches over the normal) there simply has not been much time for the soils to dry out. Highly
effective alternatives for manure containment from pastures and feed lots are limited in such wet weather and intense rainfall
events. I am sure we will get into a dryer pattern at some point and they will begin work then. I know the consent order contains
wording about of having the work completed by August but we can't help the weather delays.
I am looking forward to dryer weather. I know DWQ has been busy with existing lagoon and manure storage pond issues with all
this rainfall so I think we all need a break from the rain.
Again, thank-you for the update and the help. I will let you know when pond construction begins.

Mr. Woody,
I wanted to follow-up again regarding the discharge that is continuing from the concrete lot. I noticed that you have
built an earthen berm to try to contain the discharge, but the waste is flowing around the edges. Have you been able
to stop the discharge this week? Also, have you been able to scrape the manure from around the Harvestore? Both
sources of manure are still flowing into the ditch with leads to surface waters.
Is there construction equipment on site now? If so, when do you anticipate starting construction?
The Division is very concerned about the old and NEW discharge that is occurring. I know it has been a wetter-than-
normal-Spring, which is why we and the Court granted your request for an extension to August 1, 2013 for
completion. I'm very concerned since no construction has begun.
Please keep me updated on your progress. It is our desire (and I assume yours?) for the farm to come into
compliance and cease the discharge of animal waste into the creek. Let me know if you have ANY questions or need
anything clarified in the Consent Order or the Inspection Report.
Thank you,
Melissa

Hey Larry,
Unfortunately the visit to Mr. Woody's farm was not encouraging. There was run-off of waste from the concrete lot
that was/has flowed into the ditch and a new, much larger, discharge occurring from the push-off ramp of the old
freestall barn.
The ditch has had all vegetation removed, presumably in preparation for construction. No, the rain has not worked in
favor of the construction but I had hoped that he was further along or had equipment on site and ready to go. If there
was equipment, I did not see it. Please keep me updated as you have time.

Hi Melissa. I suppose you know it has been too wet to move dirt at Triple W. Farms since we held our pre-construction
conference. But I think everybody is at the ready for a break in the weather. I will keep you posted on when earth moving

Factual Allegations
23. Defendant Woody both operates and is the registered agent for the Triple W.
Farms, (hereinafter the "Farm"), a dairy operation located in Alamance County at 3545 East
Greensboro-Chapel Hill Highway, Snow Camp, North Carolina 27349. A copy of the Farm's
Article of Incorporation and 2011 Annual Report are attached hereto and incorporated here in as
Exhibit 1.
24. Mary's Creek, which is downhill from the Farm, including the concrete cattle lot,
is classified as a Class C water of the State and a Nutrient Sensitive Water ("NSW"). It is
designated a NSW in order to limit the discharge of nutrients (usually nitrogen and phosphorus).
Mary's Creek and unnamed tributaries flowing into it are waters of the State under N.C. Gen.
Stat. § 143-215.1 pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-212(6).
25, Mary's Creek flows into the Haw River, which is a tributary of the Cape Fear
River.
26. On February 1, 1993, the Farm was deemed permitted as a non-discharge facility
with less than 100 head of cattle in accordance with N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1(b)(4)e and 15A
N.C.A.C. 2T .1303.
27. On February 2, 1994, Defendants were issued a Notice of Violation ("NOV") for
late submittal of"Registration Form for Animal Feedlot Operations." A copy of the NOV is
attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 2.
28. On January 22, 1997, Harold Woody was issued an NOV for discharging in
excess of Best Management Practices after DWQ observed animal waste discharging from the

i • .
feedlot and silage storage areas. A copy of the NOV is attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference as Exhibit 3.
29, On March 13, 1997 the Natural Resources Conservation Service ("NRCS") sent a
letter relating to the above NOV to defendant Woody. A copy of the letter is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 4.
30. On April 3, 1997, Defendants were issued an NOV for failing to designate an
Operator in Charge. A copy of the NOV dated April 3, 1997 is attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 5.
31. A January 26, 1998, DWQ letter documents that Defendants were continuing to
allow runoff of waste from the farm. A copy of the letter is attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 6.
32. On October 15, 1998, Defendants signed and submitted a "Request for Removal
of Registration" form to DWQ. Defendants claimed a reduction in the dairy operation's herd size
to below a total of one hundred head of confined cattle and a permit under N.C. Gen. Stat. §
143-215.1 OC(a) was no longer required. Defendants' signed request conceded and
acknowledged, "Any expansion to this facility would require [them] to apply for, and obtain a
permit prior to expansion." A copy of the signed document is attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 7.

33. On March 5, 1999, DWQ acknowledged receipt of Defendant's Request for
Removal of Registration. A copy of the acknowledgement is attached hereto and incorporated
herein as Exhibit $.
34. On February 26, 2009, staff of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the DWQ
made a site visit in response to an anonymous complaint alleging that the Defendant maintained
more than one hundred head of confined cattle without an Animal Waste Management System
permit and thereby violated N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.14C.
35. During the February 26, 2009 site visit, DWQ's staff confirmed the N.C. Gen.
Stat. § 143-215.1 OC violation through conversation with Defendants, observation of the cattle
herd, and review of the Farm's milk-production records. A copy of the inspection report is
attached and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 9.
36. During the February 26, 2009 site visit, Defendants also admitted to maintaining
more than one hundred head of cattle for at least two years.
37. In a letter dated April 1, 2009, DWQ notified Defendant that it was considering
enforcement action against him per N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 143-215.1, 215.1013, and 215.1OC.
Defendants were informed a response must be returned to DWQ within ten (10) days from
receipt of the notice and that they had sixty (60) days to submit a State Application for New or
Expanding Animal Waste Operations along with supporting documents. Defendants were also
made aware of potential civil penalties up to $25,000/day per violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-
215.1. Another NOV/NOI was issued April 1, 2009 for failure to apply for a permit. A copy of
the letter and NOV are attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 10.
W oc)A LL 10 00

38. On May 1, 2009, DWQ's staff visited the Farm.again to assess environmental
impacts. The staff visually confirmed violations, including: two to eight (2 to 8) inches of
sediment and waste deposited into Mary's Creek from approximately twenty-eight hundred
(2,800) linear feet of severely eroded and denuded stream banks and riparian areas. A copy of the
inspection report and pounds of milk per cow records are attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference as Exhibit 11,
39. During the May 1, 2009 visit, DWQ's staff confirmed that at least 160 cattle from
the farm had access to the Class C NSW stream.
40. During the May 1, 2009 visit, DWQ's staff observed algal growth in the stream as
well as foam, sludge worms, and waste odor.
41. DWQ believes that Defendants must construct and maintain waste storage
facilities consistent with the Permit which includes a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
("CA WMP").
42. DWQ considered Defendants' failure to apply for a Permit to have been
"committed willful and intentional" because Defendants acknowledged in the signed and
submitted "Request for Removal of Registration," dated October 15, 1998 and noted supra, that a
CAWMP and Permit prior to expansion was required.
43. Also, DWQ considered Defendants' stream standard violation to have been
"willful and possibly intentional" because letters from DWQ and from the Alamance [County]
Soil and Water Conservation District in 1998 and 1997 respectively demonstrate that Defendants
had previously received technical assistance and guidance on proper measures and management
techniques necessary to control run-off of waste into the stream. r-{

44. DWQ noted that Defendants had been cooperative, readily allowed DWQ staff on
the property and actively participated in the investigation. Defendants also requested technical
assistance from the Alamance County Soil and Water Conservation District and participated in
the April 21, May 28, and June 10, 2009 on-site reviews and evaluations.
45. DWQ sent Defendants an NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce, dated May 15, 2009,
for"Removal of Best Usage," in violation of 15A N.C.A.C. 213 .0211(2), and for"Other Wastes
Violation," in violation of 15A N.C.A.C. 2B .0211(3)(f). A copy of the NOV/Notice of Intent to
Enforce is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 12.
46. On February 16, 2010, DWQ assessed Defendants a civil penalty of nine thousand
and ninety-two dollars and six cents ($9,092.06), for operating an Animal Waste Management
System without a required Permit and for discharge into at least 2,800 linear feet of stream, the
waters of the State. A copy of the notice of Assessment of Civil Penalties is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 13.
47. Also, in a separate letter dated February 25, 2010, DWQ notified Defendants that
per N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 OC they must apply for coverage under an Animal Waste
Operation General Permit and that operation of the facility must cease until the application was
submitted. The unfinished application, previously sent to DWQ, was to be completed and sent to
DWQ within sixty (60) days of Defendants' receipt of the February 25, 2010 letter. A copy of
the letter is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 14.
48. On May 27, 2010, Defendants were notified by DWQ that the Permit application
lacked a number of required items including an Animal Waste Management Plan Certification
and a waste storage pond design, both of which were required in a completed application.

Defendants did not respond to this request. A copy of the letter is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 15.
49. On February 16, 2011, DWQ reminded Defendant that the application for an
Animal Waste Operation General Permit had been returned as "incomplete." The letter also
acknowledged receipt of Defendants' February 15, 2011 final payment of seven hundred and `
fifty-seven dollars and sixty-seven cents ($757.67), and declared the above penalty "paid in full"
but reminded Defendants that the penalty's payment did not preclude further State action for
violations of the State's environmental laws. A copy.of the letter is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 16.
50. On June 16, 2011, a second NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce was sent to
Defendants for operating without a Permit. A copy of the NOV is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 17.
51. On April 24, 2012, DWQ staff inspected the Farm and observed that animal waste
continued to discharge from the concrete cattle lot and flowed downhill into Mary's Creek. A
copy of the copy of the April 24, 2012 Inspection Report is attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 18.
52. During the April 24, 2012 site visit, DWQ staff confirmed that at least 225 head of
cattle were confined in various stalls, dry packs and barns. See Exhibit IS.
53. During the April 24, 2012 site visit, an inspection of on-site records showed that,
as of March, 2012, the farm's milking herd numbered two hundred fifteen (215) head of cattle,
while the total number was three hundred (300) and exceeded the animal operation threshold
since 2006, in violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.10C(a). See Exhibit 18.

54. In response to the April 24, 2012 site visit, DWQ sent Defendants an NOV/
Notice of Intent to Enforce, dated April 27, 2012. The NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce
reminded Defendants of the June, 2011 NOV/Notice of Intent to Enforce referenced supra and
notified Defendant that to date DWQ had not received a written response regarding either the
Permit application or the cattle herd size.
55. DWQ's April 27, 2012 letter notified Defendants of the above violations
confirmed by the April 24, 2012 site visit. This letter reiterated the following: that Defendants
were in violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 143-215.1(a), 215.10B and 215.10C; that Defendants
should respond within ten (10) days of receipt; and that Defendants could be penalized up to
$25,000 per day per violation along with potential criminal penalties for violating State
environmental laws and regulations. A copy of the April 27, 2012 letter is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 19.
56. In a letter dated May 14, 2012, Defendants responded to DWQ to "clarify
observation #1" [regarding discharges from cattle lot], to update DWQ on progress "made
towards facility construction that is part of the plan that will be submitted with an updated permit
application," to give an anticipated time for submitting an updated application, and to inform
DWQ of extenuating circumstances affecting Defendants' facility's construction efforts and
application submissions. A copy of Defendants' letter is attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference as Exhibit 20.
57. As of July 31, 2012, Defendants lack a permanent structure to store waste water
from the milking parlor and DWQ believes the Farm will continue to illegally discharge.

plan certification, as required by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1OC.
59. As of July 31, 2012, Defendants have failed to submit a complete application for a
Permit and continued operations are in violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 OC(a).
CLAIMS FOR RELIEF
60. The allegations contained in paragraphs 1 through 59 are incorporated into these
claims for relief as if fully set forth herein.
61. The continued operation of Defendants' animal waste system without an adequate
Permit and valid CAWMP which includes a permanent structure to store waste water from the
milk parlor will result in continued illegal discharges into the waters of the State. A permanent
structure to store the milking parlor's waste water must be constructed, and Defendants, per N.C.
Gen. Stat. § 143-215.1 OC, must complete an application for a Permit' in order to continue the

3. That after a full hearing on the merits the preliminary injunction be made
permanent.
4. That the Court's order provides that the injunction shall be enforceable by and
through the contempt powers of this Court pursuant to Chapter 5A of the North Carolina General

Hi Melissa. Here is an update on the Triple W. Farms (TWF) project.
1) Harold Woody has been very helpful and eager to get everything lined up and in place. I am trying to do as
much of this work as I can for him since I understand his financial situation and am pulling out as many stops as
possible to keep his costs under control. Otherwise he can't afford to do the work. We are making
considerable progress.
2) 1 have spent a considerable amount of time over the last 4 weeks trying to get someone from one of the
Government agencies to perform PLAT for TWF but so far nobody has agreed to do the work. As you know Phil
Ross with the Alemance County Soil and Water Conservation Service had agreed to do this work on several
occasions over a long period of time but for some unexplained reason he backed out at the last minute. Since
hiring a consultant to do the work seems to be the only option for TWF I am getting some estimates, but this
only adds to the financial cost of the project. If you have any suggestions as to a government agency that would
do this work, please let me know.
3) Harold told me he has pulled soil samples and waste samples and taken them to NCDA for analyses. He is
supposed to be getting me the maps or at least the locations of the fields where he plans to apply his scraped
waste. I have agreed to develop his crop/waste management plan based on nitrogen limitations, but PLAT
results could change that. I am working on the plan now so we will have something ready by the time the waste
storage pond is completed.
4) Since I last spoke to you I had to revise the pond design since I discovered a culvert which transferred
stormwater to the drainage area we are considering. Since the stormwater routing could not be changed I had
to do some last minute scrambling to recalculate pond size, 25 year - 24 hour storm containment, etc. As of
today plans for the new stormwater containment pond are finished except for the final drawings. To add
complexity to my efforts, my plotter quit early last week and I have had a hard time finding someone that could
plot out the drawings using my CAD program. Parts are ordered for my plotter but it is going to take 2 more
weeks to get them in and installed. I found someone that should be able to plot them out so hopefully I will have
the drawings printed out by Tuesday or Wednesday of this week if all goes according to plan. I hope to drive
them to Raleigh so JR and I can discuss them. 1 will call JR to see if this works for him.
5) Harold told me he has removed some brush and trees from the pond site in preparation for earth moving. I
have not been to the farm since any vegetation work took place.
6) 1 told Harold not to begin pond construction until we received permission from DWQ. I think that is what
Harold was talking about in his email to you.
There have been numerous twists and turns on this project (like Phil's withdrawal) that have caused us delays. I
think the contractor is ready to.begin work on the pond as soon as we have the green light.
That is a wrap right now. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Melissa. l appreciate Phil sending all of us this map with the dimensions. I was out of the office Monday and Tuesday so I was
unable to look this up. From what I had seen on the farm, we met the 100 feet set-backs from the blue line stream and our plan is
to not have the inner rim of the pond closer than 100 feet to the water well. FYI -The drainage way in which we plan to install the
pond is normally dry, but I did not want to call you about this until I had a chance to get back to the office and look at the USGS

Waste Tank to the stream was 737 Feet. I also measured it off of the actual USGS map (the Saxaphaw Quad) and it was

All:
I visited the Mr. Woody's farm this morning. Several things concern me and I discussed these items with Mr. Woody
and will put in my written report:
1. Farm is still WAY over 100 cattle.
2. The stakes marking the placement of the yet to be constructed WSP are within 100 feet of what I would
consider a blue-line stream. Will talk with Larry Graham about this.
3. There is still waste discharging from the lot in two places. Today, one discharge was being contained in a
denuded field with an earthen berm but the waste was washing around it (#2883 and #2896). Waste
discharge stopped just a few feet short of the trib. The second discharge from the lot is (#18) still several
hundred feet from the trib.
4. Many cattle still have access to the stream---and we observed sludge worms today (#13).
5. Mr. Woody still says Phil Ross is writing his waste plan. I ask Mr. Woody if he had confirmed that with Phil and
he said "they" (Larry Graham and Phil) were still discussing it and that he had not spoken with Phil Ross
directly. I ask Mr. Woody to call Phil himself because I had received an email from him to the contrary.
This is just a quick summary. I also explained to Mr. Woody that he, DWQ, and the judge agreed that the CAWMP and
the waste pond will/must be completed within 60 days of when we were in court. I ask Mr. Woody if he had any
questions or needed me to explain what was expected and he said no. He was very pleasant and readily answered
my questions.

Hi Melissa. I wanted you to know that Phil Ross with the Alamance County NRCS has backed out of doing the animal waste
utilization plan for Triple W. Farms. All along Phil said he would do the work, but now says no. So I am working to help Harold
Woody find someone else, but Harold was counting on some help from the NRCS. I have a pretty tight schedule to try and keep
so I would really like for someone else to do that part of the work. But if push comes to shove I will try to do the entire plan. I am

not sure how things will work out but this is one of those "can't help it"things.
I will keep you informed about progress.

Mr. Woody,
As we discussed last week after court, I would like to visit your farm on Monday March 18th to check on the
progress of your waste plan and construction of the waste structure for the parlor waste. This would also be
an opportunity for you to discuss any questions or concerns that you might have as well.
Would 10:00 on March 181h work for you?
Thanks,
Melissa

Hi Melissa,
saw the email and talked to Brad about Harold.
Larry Graham his engineer contacted me see my response below.
I honestly do not have time in the next 60 days to do this. I am not sure he could even get the soil test back if they were sent in
today to do the plan. Not to mention where he would have the land to spread waste for 300 cows.
Just thought I would let you know what I told him.

Hi Larry,
Sorry I have not been able to contact you sooner, With all that I have going on now
And in the coming weeks, Basically I will not be able to do this waste plan in this short time window.
I have already put off to many projects due to the time with my mother and ongoing health problems with my wife.
I think it would be in Harold's best interest to go ahead and get another waste technical specialist that could write the plan
immediately, get the soil samples needed (That will be tough enough to get back in 60 days). Thanks for letting me know what
is going on. But again he needs someone that can get started on the plan immediately to get it finished by that date.

Hello Phil. I hope things are settling down around your office. Please accept my condolences over the death of your mother. I
know that this can really add to your work load and stress.
1

called your office this afternoon and ed you. I wanted to get up with you withW
ds to the Triple W. Farms animal waste
plan and the work currently being cond at the farm. I will simply bullet a fewbelow and we can of course discuss
them over the phone or via email as needed.
1. Triple W. Farms is under a court ordered consent to have their new waste management plans in to DWQ by Friday May 10.
This includes the waste storage pond containment and plans and the animal waste utilization plans. In other words Triple W.
Farms needs all the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) information submitted to DWQ by May 10. In addition I
understand the waste storage pond needs to be built or at least well on its way by May 10. Of course weather and contractor's
schedule will figure into how much construction takes place on the pond. Still this is a tall order to have all this completed in the
next 7 or 8 weeks.
2" 1 aim to have the plans in to DWQ for the temporary animal waste storage pond (mainly for stormwater runoff storage and
milking parlor waste) on or before March 25. After DWQ looks at these plans and approves their design Harold can OK the
construction to begin.
3. 1 also aim to develop an irrigation plan by which Triple W. Farms can empty their waste storage pond throughout the year.
While I suppose this will technically be par:of the animal waste management plan, it will by no means be the entire animal waste
management plan. I will include nutrient applications from the collected water via the irrigation. I think Harold wants to grow
fescue grass in the irrigated field(s) so I will address the amounts of water, nitrogen, yields, etc, only on the irrigated land.
4. From previous on-farm meetings and email correspondence, it is my understanding that you are going to develop the animal
waste management plan for all of Triple W. Farm's scraped waste. I can provide you with the details on the amounts of scraped
waste I estimated he would have from 300 milk cows if you wish. I can also provide you with the volume of the new dry stack you
need these numbers. The waste utilization plan will also include the fields onto which Triple W. Farms will apply the scraped
waste, soil types, crop rotations, yields, PLAT, etc. I am sure you know what to include. I wanted you to know we will need PLAT
on the irrigated areas as well. That will not be a large field, but needs to be included while you are on-site. It is my understanding
from talking to Melissa Rosebrock (with DWQ) that ALL of these details have to be in to DWQ's hands on or before May 10.
5. If for some reason there is a problem with you providing the waste utilization part of the plan by May 10, please let me and
Harold know ASAP. I will be hard pressed to get all the pond design, construction management, and irrigation design completed
by May 10 so I sincerely hope you can do the scraped waste utilization plan and PLAT.
look forward to your reply.
Thanks Phil.

Subject: RE-. Triple W. Farms water level pole.
Hi Larry,
Thanks for your email and update. Glad to hear the marker has been installed, I know Mr. Woody has recently been
working very diligently to lower the waste level enough to work on the marker.
As you mentioned, keeping good records is important(and required per the permit). Rainfall, waste levels, and 1"
rainfall checks must all be recorded in addition to the other records.This is half the battle as they say. Mr. Woody is not
unique though in that we have a few others that depend mostly/entirely on a commercial hauler to keep the waste
levels compliant.This is often difficult and the permittee must "get on their list" many weeks before they actually think
they want to have the waste pumped.This is part of their management that we take into consideration.
This year has been particularly tough on farmers to manage animal waste. Alamance and Randolph Counties have had it
rough due their proximity to coastal storms. While allowing waste levels to rise, at any time, above the maximum liquid
mark is a noncompliant permit event, we also look at other factors such as compliance history, effect of rain on others
in the county, rain and freeboard records, notification to our office of high freeboard, and especially the efforts by the
farmer to try to abide by their permit requirements before such storm events. We are charged with being consistent
across Alamance County and across the Winston-Salem region...which can be very difficult when dealing with both swine
and cattle systems across the entire state.
I would encourage Mr. Woody and everyone associated with this facility to contact our office for ANY questions or
concerns you might have. We can work best if we can all work together on compliance (that was not intended as any
political statement! O).
Best regards,
Melissa

Subject:Triple W. Farms water level pole.
Hello Melissa. I wanted you to know that on November 1 1 installed a water level indicator pole inside the Triple W. Farm
stormwater containment pond. I briefly spoke to Harold about the device. It was placed on the dam end of the pond
where he can see it from the free stall barn.
I would like to point out one thing with regards to the Triple W. Farm pond water levels. Harold elected to use a pump and
haul practice to remove manure impacted stormwater from the pond. As you well know pump and haul is an
intense water removal effort over a short time. Hauling opportunities depend on crop availability, the amount of water in
the pond, availability of a pumping contractor, wetness in the fields, etc. Even when called, the pumping contractor can't
always come immediately or easily get into the fields for spreading. I am sure you know all about the limitations of pump
and haul.
That said it is much harder to keep the water level below the "start pumping" mark all the time when using pump and haul
as a water removal technique, especially since he is collecting rainwater. Even a moderate rain event could add a foot or
two of water into the pond and send the water level over the"start pumping" level from one day to the next. Naturally
irrigation affords much more flexibility in managing pond water levels and that may be something Harold will want to do
later on.
I am told that work has been done since I originally designed the pond to redirect some of the "clean" stormwater away
from the pond. I have not spent time to see if this would significantly reduce the required emergency storage volume but
every bit of clean runoff he keeps out helps in terms of storage needs. I say all this to point out that there may be times
when Harold calls the pumper for water removal and in the meanwhile he exceeds the start pump level before the pumper
can visit the site. Given that he has a considerable amount of storage built into this pond I think allowing some flexibility in
emergency water storage reserves at this site is not an unreasonable thing. But the 25 year-24 hour storm storage is
there for a good reason and protects not only the streams but Triple W. Farms as well. I will let you work with Harold on
this but I wanted to point out how he might from time to time exceed the start pump level by a small amount without taking
any significant risk for overflow. I am not advocating a large discounting of the emergency storage volume, but I think
you can see that some flexibility is a needed reality under these circumstances. Harold needs to keep good records on
local rainfall events to help him communicate the impacts of rainfall events on his pond water levels.
If you have any questions please let me know.

Wally,
No, I was not able to contact Mr. Graham for the follow-up. However, based on the volume data he
had provided and the additional dry stack storage, we made a determination that the facility had
enough storage and waste application area to handle the waste. Hence, we went ahead with the permit
issuance. It was better for the facility to be covered under the general permit for the time being.
At some point, however, all these numbers need to be reconciled. We will always have an opportunity
to re-visit the situation during our annual inspections and would discuss the plans further.

The only thing that I know will be lacking will be PLAT on the Guarin Tract in Chatham County. Harold lost two Tracts he
previously was using but picked up a large tract in Chatham County. This Tract did not have soil samples in the last three
years so I could not run PLAT on these fields. I told Melissa and she said to go ahead and send in the application and I
could run Plat at a later date when the soil samples became available because this is something that has been done in
the past.The most important thing was to get the application in before the deadline. I think he probably has enough
land available to handle what waste he will need to spread. I will run PLAT when the soil samples become available and

Re: Engineer's inspection and certification letter for the new stormwater/waste storage pond at the
Triple W. Farm in Alamance County,NC. DWR Facility Number AWD 10010
Dear Ms. Rosebrock,
On November 17, 2015 I again visited the above referenced site to perform a final inspection of the
newly installed pond. Based on that inspection (and prior inspections) I am sending you this
correspondence to verify my belief that the said structure was constructed in accordance with the
original intent of the plans. It is my opinion that the new pond is now functional and ready to be
placed into permanent service.
You and I have discussed the many ancillary aspects of the farm's manure management and I did not
want to get those confused with the pond itself, especially since 1 have only been asked to work on and
certify the pond. There are a few minor issues(e.g. push-off ramp manure infrastructure) that remained
to be completed at the time of my last inspection, but from a functional standpoint the new pond is
complete, but the installation of the auxiliary parts of the manure handling system are not critical to the
pond function. I will be helping Mr. Woody install a water level indicator pole inside his pond in the
near future.
This letter shall also verify that I have inspected all or representative sections of the above referenced
pond and dam at critical times as it was being installed and found the essential components to be in
place within the intent of the approved engineering plans, specifications, and correspondence.
Any system components which I did not see installed, or that were covered with soil prior to my visits,
or were otherwise not visible for my personal inspection have been verified to be in place by a either
the farm owner or by the earth moving contractor. The engineer feels confident that the overall project
intent has been met and wastewater flow, treatment intent, safety, etc. conforms to the original
specifications. Information given to the engineer by others and used in this certification shall be taken
as truth if it cannot be verified otherwise.
There will be additional certifications and documentation sent from my office on this project in the
near future. They will include the "As-Constructed" package and drawings as well as the Technical
Specialist Certification (Form AWC-Sept. 18, 2006), but since these documents are still being finalized
I did not want to delay some type of engineering verification that the pond is in place and functional.
Waste utilization and crop management plans are being developed by others.
The engineer can take no responsibility for changes made to the above system before, during, or after
construction without his knowledge. Nor does the engineer take any responsibility for human losses or

property damages which should occur due to poor workmanship, improper use of machinery, unknown
conditions above or below ground level, defective equipment, legal problems with boundary lines or
easements, acts of nature, "short-cuts" the owner or contractor may have taken in system construction,
improper system operation, unauthorized chemical discharge into the system, lack of long term
maintenance, accidents, or use of the system beyond its intended purpose.
It should be noted that Mr. Harold Woody will be furnished a copy of this certification letter and
subsequent as-constructed documentation. It shall now be the system owner's responsibility to comply
with all items specified within the engineering plans, permit, etc. and operate the system in accordance
with State and local laws.
On behalf of Triple W. Farms i would like to offer our sincere thanks for your time and for your
valuable assistance on this project. Please be on the lookout for the other end-of-project
documentation and let me if I can be of further assistance.

Greetings everyone.
I received a call from Harold Woody's contractor on Monday of this week telling me he was finishing up the earth moving
work on the pond. This is really good news. I have been to the farm to see the basic cuts and shapes, but I will need to
visit he farm at least one more time to see that certain check list items have been performed. I will not go into lots of detail
here about the check list items since they may all be completed at this point.
I am not sure what Mr. Woody wants to do with the push off ramp manure but we should address this so it is functional
and has a predetermined path to the pond, if that is where he wants it to go. I really don't feel comfortable leaving that
aspect of the project"un-addressed".
It is my understanding that Mr. Woody will be using contracted pump and haul for water/manure removal from the pond.
assume he is working with others to develop a waste utilization plan for that aspect of the project. So we will not be
utilizing irrigation for water management. I will be happy to furnish anyone the volume calculations and predicted water
balances for the pond once I do my final inspection.
I have to be out of the State from September 25 through October 6 and will not be able to visit the site prior to me
leaving. This may also allow Mr. Woody time to plant grass and/or make some decisions about what to do with the push-
off ramp manure. I agree with Melissa that the pond is functional and should contain runoff and light manure additions
without a problem as long as Mr. Woody manages future water levels. Watch out for those tropical systems since they
can drop many inches of rain over a few hours!
I will provide my engineering certification and develop as-constructed drawings as soon as I can verify the check-list items
are complete.
Call if you have any questions.

In summary: It appears that the new waste structure has been constructed and is functional but the
waste system has not yet been certified since the new waste structure still needs to be lightly
smoothed and fescue seeded and mulched (see #37). The solid waste below the old freestall barn
still needs to be removed and land-applied (#50). Lastly, Mr. Woody needs to obtain a certified animal

Melissa.
I am going to give you and up date on the progress we have made and plan to make in the next three mounts,
May June July
I have fence in eighteen acres of pasture to added to the heifer lot. This area will give the heifers shade and more
area away from the stream for the manure.
Barton Michel called this morning and is planning to start fencing the streams out April 27.. 2015.
Since I will not be involved with the fence building i have two eighteen wheelers to move compost out of the pack
barn, weather permitting, next week.
This compost will be stock pilled next to grass field and spread at a later date. This will allow us to get the pipe in
the ground to convey the pallor water to the storage pond.
On about the first of June, weather permitting.. we will get the water pumped out of the pond so the dirt can dry
At this point the contractor can finish the dirt removal
Please no penalty; I need every penny I have to finish this job
I am spending social security money to finish this job
Thanks,
Harold

Larry and/or Mr. Woody,
I'm writing to see if any progress has been made on the construction of the new waste structure? In the
attached photo, there is a stake in the foreground. Does this stake represent additional soil that needs to be
removed or is it just a random stake?Thanks,
Melissa
