STATUS OF PAST NOTED VIOLATIONS:

OBSERVED VIOLATIONS:
1. 15A NCAC 13B .0838 (a)(18) states: Approved nutrient management plans shall be followed.

Permit number SLAS-79-06/Conditions of Operating Permit Section two states in part: This site shall be operated
and maintained in accordance with the nutrient management plan submitted by Patrick and Eric Gann and
approved by the Division of Waste Management.

Gann Brothers Septic Tank Service, Inc. was in violation of 15A NCAC 13B .0838 (a)(7) because the approved
Nutrient Management Plan (Plan) Section B paragraph 2 states in part: “In order for this fescue field to receive
septage, a 80% stand should be maintained”. Field 2 appeared to have less than 80% coverage of fescue. The
other vegetation was either dormant, dead or damaged at the time of inspection.

In order to come into compliance, Gann Brothers Septic Tank Service, Inc. must immediately follow the nutrient
management plan for SLAS-79-04.

Wylie at [e-mail] or 910-433-3352 to update the Plan.
