Vegetation on dam looks much better. Please continue broadleaf weed control efforts. 7. Marker and one area of the dam has freeboard available while another area has waste just 6 inches or less below the top of the dam. Should re -shoot elevation and repair or bring up the top of the dam. Contact technical specialist and engineer. 8. May need to re -survey marker. Start pump mark is not clear to Mike. 9. Please pump waste out of "back-up" retention basin. 19. Mike wants a TOTAL of 700 beef cows (stockers) at both locations. Location on Elk Creek Curch Road is not yet permitted. Technical specialist is working on CAWMP and Mike has applied for Cost Share. 21. Soil tests due 2018 but not yet completed, check next visit. 24. 2018 calibration is not yet completed. Check next visit. 32. Facility has no animals confined today. All cattle are on pasture and not fed on lot currently. There are 17 animals fed on lot located on Elk Creek Church Road. Mike wants to have a total of 700 beef cattle split between dairy and Elk Creek Church Road sites. MUST obtain permit if planning to stock >100 at Elk Creek Church Road site. To complete application, the permittee will need a CAWMP that either encompases both sites, or is specific for each of the sites.
