ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. Reviewed the required setbacks for this site and measured various areas. It did not appear that the required 50’
setback was present on the north side of Field 2 (this line was recently surveyed). Markers were adjusted while
on site. It also appears that possibly the 50’ setback may not be fully present along the west side of Field
5. Discussed this with Matthew Markus before leaving the site who indicated that this would be reviewed. Per
Rule .0837(d)(15) “Accurate property line locations are the responsibility of the site operator”. If needed
adjust posts on Field 5 to ensure that the required setbacks are present.
2. The cropstand on the previous grease burn areas has significantly improved. The winter cover crop will be
planted in the near future after the last harvest. Land application shall occur this winter only if a cover crop is
established that is sufficient for land application to occur.
3. Was informed that all grease septage is processed thru the dewatering box, but some domestic septage is land
applied directly (after lime stabilization to pH 12). Noted a heavy grayish application path on field 5 and also on
Field 1 – these matted areas need to be raked loose to prevent crop damage (staff began doing this while I
was on site) & implement any needed changes to prevent this from occurring.
4. Reviewed the permit submittal. Discussed minor changes needed to the application form. A copy of the
nutrient management plan with a new signature/date is needed. Also need waste analysis reports for the
2nd & 3rd quarters of 2018. Received from Eric Locklear a copy of the 2018 certification for the Land
Residuals class. The continuing education hours (for the firm/SLAS permits) still need to be obtained for 2018 –
Mr. Locklear indicated that the Raleigh class in December would be attended. Site logs are under review.
5. A new site map is required to reflect the reduced acreage & gallons on Field 5. It was noted during this visit that
an area between Fields 2 & 3 is being used for vehicles/equipment so the map will need to be adjusted for this
also.
6. The required signs are posted and the access road is adequate. Was informed of the code for the new
combination lock on the gate. Access to the site is being controlled for security reasons. Hay bales are currently
sitting on the perimeter of Field 5 but will be removed soon.
7. Discussed the odor complaints that have been received by this office. No significant odors or vectors noted
during this visit.
8. Soil samples will be taken by the permit holder in the near future.
9. Thank you for your time.
