Please see some of the previous contacts below. I should have the data to Natalie by the end of next week so revisions can begin. I wanted to review with Mark the rotations, tracts, and field numbers again before proceeding. Working together, I feel we can get this WUP updated in the very near future. Mark's plan has been out of date for too long. Thank you for your patience with this matter. I will keep you posted. Please contact me with any questions. Sincerely, Tom Smith District Soil/Watershed Conservationist Stokes SWCD PO Box 98 Danbury, NC 27016 336 593-2846 ext#3 tsmith@stokesswcd.net www.stokesswcd.org From: Woolard, Natalie[mailto:natal ie.woolardancagr.gov] Sent: Wednesday, July 15, 2015 2:12 PM To: tsmith(cbstokesswcd.net Subject: RE: WUP Plan Revision To m, If you could send me the information either electronically or in the mail, I will run it through the software program for you. That is the best I can do at this time. We do not have staff that can assist in a timely manner, unless I see if Josh Spencer with NRCS could possibly help out. However, I am not aware of his schedule. If you want me to do it, I would need the old plan, recent soil sample results for corresponding fields, maps, acres etc. for any fields to be added. There may be additional items needed as I get started, but I will let you know. Hope this helps!

I will have our IT guy reload because I have no administrative privileges. Mr. Shore's WUP plan was done (0200 days) pre 2005'ish software days or the current planning software. He has never has any revisions with this current software and I am not familiar with it. Yes, I need assistance. Thanks for your help and attention to this request. 110 in From: Woolard, Natalie[maiIto: natalie.woolardCalncagr.govI Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2015 1:55 PM To: tsmith(aistokesswcd.net Cc: marvin.cavanaugh@cavanauohsolutions.com; jpackCalstokesswcd.net Subject: RE: WUP Plan Revision Tom, I can definitely acid your request to our list., but just for clarification I am not sure which new software you are referring to. We have been working on new Nutrient Management Software but it has not been released. So offices are still using the old software from 2005'ish timeframe. If you want to attempt to download that software here is the link and instructions.... http://nutrients.soil.ncsu.edu/software/nmp/ Please let me know if you still need our assistance. If so, I am not sure we can meet your requested date of completion of 8/1/15. We have several projects under construction at this time and a vacancy in your area. We will do our best.

Mr. Mark Shore has requested a WUP revision. I am uncomfortable with the new software that is being used at this time. I can assist with maps and planning and are very willing to learn how to operate the new software. Mr. Shore has been keeping proper records, but his field rotations are need of revisions to pass required state inspections. The current plan on file with our District office has been out of date for some time now. Mr. Shore has been more than patient with our office. Please note I have currently lost the software due to recent computer issues also. Thanks in advance for you help.

While reviewing the farm's animal waste records and general farming operations, she noted several concerns that warrant your attention. Specifically, Ms. Rosebrock noted evidence of severe streambank erosion along an unnamed tributary (UT) to Voss Creek (Class C) near the heifer lot due to the cattle having unrestrained access to e the creek. Remnants of wire and fencing observed during the inspection suggest that there had recently been a buffered area next to the creek. Per discussion with Staff, we understand that the fencing is to be re -installed within six months and the buffer area re -seeded with grass. Another area of concern was the breeding heifer lot on Middlebrook Road. On the date of the inspection, Ms. Rosebrock also noted that there was some erosion of soil and waste occurring from the breeding heifer lot towards Voss Creek. Your proposed construction of stock trails to/from this lot should alleviate at least some of the problem. We urge your continued cooperation. with the Stokes County SWCD/NRCS in implementing the proposed stock trails this year. The past discharge of "juice" from stockpiled silage into the UT to Voss Creek was also noted during the inspection. To eliminate the possibility of further silage waste getting into surface waters of the State, you should land apply the rotted silage -as -soon as possible. While none of the wastes described above were reaching waters of the State on the date of the inspection, the potential certainly exists for a discharge to waters in the future, particularly if conditions deteriorate on any of the above mentioned areas. Again, please contact the Stokes County SWCD/NRCS for any technical assistance you may need. 585 Waughtown Street, Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27107-2241 Phone: 336 — 771-4600\ FAX: 336 — 771-4630\ Internet: www.enr.state.nc.us/ENP,/ AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY \ AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER— 50%RECYCLE-D/ 10%POST CONSUMER PAPER L3�f' 0 Shorehill Farm March 5, 2001 Page 2 A review of the waste application records also revealed some deficiencies that should be addressed as soon as possible. Specifically, December 2000 applications of waste were outside of the application window stated in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). In addition, an error in reading the appropriate table in the CAWMP, caused 65 pounds of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) to be overapplied to Tract-2745 Field-5. We recommend that you not apply any waste to this specific field for at least.12 months from the date of the last application. Further, the CAWMP lists "Tobacco" as the crop for Tract-3497 Field-4C. As you stated during the inspection, the area actually had soybeans in it last year and will be in corn this year. Please contact your technical specialist to have your CAWMP revised to reflect this cropping change and for any other assistance you may need regarding the "interpretation" of the CAWMP. The Winston-Salem Regional Office appreciates your cooperation in these matters. If you have any questions concerning this Notice, please contact Melissa Rosebrock or me at (336) 771- 4600.
