Jeff,
We have a new staff member who will also be conducting animal waste inspections for us. He has never been on a swine
farm (or at least years ago). Do you have any concerns with him being on the farm this coming Monday? He will not be
conducting any Randolph Co. inspections so this is just training. Of course we will have boot covers, spray, and meet the
permittee at the end of the farm road.
Does Smithfield have any training coming up on biosecurity? I'd like for our new guy to attend. If you are not the
appropriate person to ask please let me know. Thanks.

Dear Mr. Lawrence:
The Non-Discharge.Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary review of the subject application. Additional information is
required before we can continue our review. Please address the attached information request by September 2, 2000. Your
technical specialist may be able to assist you with most of the requested information.
.Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist. Please
reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be signed,
sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information requested by this letter, must be
submitted on or before September 2, 2000 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in.accordance with 15A
N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.
Please be advised that operation of the subject animal waste management system without a valid permit is a violation of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and will subject you to the enforcement authority of the Environmental Management
Commission.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at [phone], extension 371.

Please indicate the appropriate application windows for small grain and soybean in your Waste Utilization
Plan (WUP).
2. When utilizing soybeans in a crop rotation, residual nitrogen should be accounted for in the next crop. It
appears that the nitrogen residual from soybeans is not accounted for in the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP)
submitted. Please contact your technical specialist to review your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) and revise
the WUP to account for residual nitrogen from soybeans, if necessary.
3. The total PAN uptake listed in the summary table on Page 7 of your WUP is slightly higher than our
calculations. Please verify the total PAN uptake and correct the WUP accordingly. .
An Emergency Action Plan is necessary to comply with Senate Bill 1217. A copy of the plan to be
completed was sent in a letter dated August 3, 2000 for the swine portion of your facility. The plan
submitted for the swine.portion of the facility can be used in this instance. Please include a copy for our
records.
It appears that the photocopier missed or mixed up some pages of your permit application materials. Page 2
of the Insect Control Checklist is missing. This page was sent to you for completion in the letter mentioned
above for the swine portion of your facility. A copy of this completed page will be acceptable for our
records.
6. The WUP discusses storage periods and waste structures on Page 8 that is not applicable to your facility.
Since waste is stored in a dry stack and a separate sheet calculates the volume of waste stored for 60 — 90
days, the paragraph in the WUP could be modified to discuss the proper waste handling and storage period
for this portion of your facility.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 76-13-2
Randolph County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI,IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

Animal Operation Site Inspection
Oakwood Farms, Facility # 76-13 (1 &2)
Randolph County
Dear Mr. Lawrence:
Ms. Melissa Rosebrock of this Office conducted a site inspection at your
facility on October 25, 2000. Although the waste handling system and most farm
operations appeared in excellent condition, the record keeping system needs some
improvement.
Staff noted that the information in your waste application records was not
complete. Specifically, a waste analysis was not performed within 60 days of land
application during 2000. Please note that waste and soil analysis, once obtained,
should be kept for a minimum of five years.
Failure to have the above components available and complete is a violation of
your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. Remember that waste
applications should be applied during the time the crop can utilize the nutrients in
the waste. In general, waste should be applied no earlier than 30 days prior to
planting.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, -please do not hesitate to
contact Melissa Rosebrock or myself at [phone].

Permit Application Comments/Requests
I. Please provide a clearer map that identifies (outlines or highlights) and shows the acreage of Fields 19 and 20 on
Tract 3490 as listed in the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP).
2. The WUP indicates that waste from your swine facility is contained in underground storage pits and has 180 days of
storage for 1,000 head of feeder to finish swine. Calculations of the pit dimensions provided with your permit
application indicate 12,432 cubic feet of storage space. Please verify the storage period as our calculations show
there may be less storage time than indicated. If the storage period is less than 180 days, please correct your WUP to
indicate such.
3. Please list the application window for the small grain crop indicated in the WUP.
4. A typo was noted in the WUP for Field 2 on Page 4. The field acreage should be I I.17 instead of 11.7. This will
slightly modify your total acreage and total PAN summary on Page 8 of your WUP.
5. Page 2 of the Insect Control Checklist for Animal Operations seems to be missing. Please complete and return Page
2 of the enclosed checklist.
6. An Odor Control Checklist was submitted for the cattle portion of your facility, but not for the swine portion. Please
complete the Swine Farm Waste Management Odor Control Checklist (3 pages). This checklist is enclosed for your
convenience. Please return the completed checklist to us.
7. An Emergency Action Plan (EAP) is necessary for your facility to comply with Senate Bill 1217. Please complete
and submit the enclosed EAR
8. It was noted that one soil type on Fields 13, 14 and 15, Badin -- Tatum Complex (BaD), may be present on steep
sloping land. Since the WUP shows more land available for waste application than necessary, we recommend not
using these three fields for waste application unless absolutely necessary.
NOTE: If necessary, a separate request 'regarding the cattle portion of your facility will be sent under separate cover.
However, your Certificate of Coverage under the General Permit will be issued as a combined cattle and swine facilin,.

This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2,
SLDI, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
