Waste that has accumulated beneath the push off ramp and flowed downhill is only 66 feet from. a well. There is a concern for well water contamination since this practice has been occuring for several years. The stockpiling of waste too close to a well continues to be a habitual violation. 4. Waste level in the new waste pond is 35 inches.over the maximum liquid/start pump mark (22 inches below spillway). This is a continuing violation. See June22, July 12, and October 31, 2018 inspections. 5. & 7. Large crack in concrete wall of wet stack has been temporarily back -filled to stop leak of animal waste. Mr. Woody states that permanent repairs are to be made when he can get sub -contractor out to the farm. Small leak continues in -another part of the concrete wall (under the roofed section) but has only traveled a foot. 6. The small uncovered concrete pit at the rear of the milk parlor is still being used to hold waste until it can be pumped directly into a honey wagon and applied. If waste is NOT going to be conveyed to the new waste pond via underground pipe, then this method of waste management must be removed from the waste plan (CAWMP). If the dairy parlor is no longer in use then the pit may be closed out. Mr. Woody states that the farm is in process of converting from a milking operation to a beef brood cow/calf operation. 9. As noted in previous inspections over the last several years, the improper management of animal waste beneath the push off ramp continues to be a violation of the CAWMP and the permit. Again, the new waste pond was NOT designed to receive overland flow of solid waste. 11. Animal waste solids were being applied today. Mr. Woody was reminded to obtain a waste analysis within 60 days and to record all the loads being applied. 21. Freeboard records are not being maintained. This is a continued violation (see June 22, July 12, and October 31, 2018 inspection reports). 30. See June, July, and October 2018 inspections. Mr. Woody has pumped some waste out since June 2018 but the waste level is still non -compliant. Mr. Woody responded to WSRO requests for freeboard updates by sending photos on September 7 and September 18, 2018. The WSRO received a partially completed plan of action (POA) on September 10, 2018. The WSRO was not aware that the non -compliant freeboard level had increased further since the October 31, 2018 inspection. 34. The WSRO will need to continue monitoring the freeboard level in the new structure until compliant. page: 2 Permit: AWC010010 Owner - Facility : Harold Woody Facility Number: 010010 Inspection Date: Inpsection Type: Compliance Inspection Reason for Visit: Follow-up Waste Structures Disignated Observed Type Identifier Closed Date Start Date Freeboard Freeboard Dry Stack 02 01/23/13 18.00 Waste Pit CONCRETE PIT 18.00 Waste Pond 01 04/23/13 57.00 k page: 3 Permit: AWC010010 .
