Hunt, Jr., Governor Bill Holman, Secretary Kerr T. Stevens, Director May 17, 2000 Ronald L. Daniel 215 Danielbs Dairy Road Blanch NC 27212 NCDENR NORTH CAROLINA (DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES Subject: Rating of Potential Risk Inactive Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds Daniel Farm Facility Number 17-5002 Caswell County Dear Ronald L. Daniel; During the 1999 session, the North Carolina General Assembly passed a law directing the North Carolina Department of Environment of Natural Resources (DENR) to develop an inventory and ranking of all inactive lagoons and storage ponds in the State. In order to meet this directive, a representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at least one year. The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as high, medium or low according to its potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structure(s) was ranked as follows: Structure Number Surface Area (Acres) Ranking 1 0.82 Medium 2 0.11 Medium 3 0.07 Medium This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit. Changes in these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your waste structure(s) in the future. Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider additional requirements for future management of these structures which may include requiring proper closure of inactive lagoons and storage ponds according to current or alternative standards. 585 Waughtown Street, Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27107 Telephone (336) 7714600 Fax (336) 7714631 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Rating of Potential Risk • Inactive Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Regardless of their ranking, owners of all waste lagoons and storage ponds have certain management responsibilities. These include taking appropriate actions to eliminate current discharges, prevent future discharges and to insure the stability of their structures. Staff of the Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of all inactive structures that have been determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data collected by the Department. All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or structure must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is an excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, structure operation and maintenance, and other related animal waste management standards and/or requirements. Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of surface water or groundwater quality standards. Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process. If you have questions concerning your inactive structures, please contact the staff of either in the Division of Water Quality or the Division of Soil and Water Conservation in the Winston-Salem Regional Office at (336) 771-4600.
