On February 4, 2000, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality inspected the Carroll's Foods Farm #2537 and #2538

that wastewater had left the waste management system. An inspector from the
Division of Water Quality arrived on the site and observed that an earthen berm had
been installed to prevent additional wastewater from leaving the farm. Animal
waste had flowed from the back of one of the swine buildings and ultimately
discharged into Turkey Creek which is Class "C SW" waters. The lagoon was also
observed to be in the emergency storage level (approximately 13 inches).
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. 1 f not already completed, lower the lagoon level to the required. freeboard on a
suitable waste application Field as soon as weather permits and per the CAWMP.

Failure to Follow or Implement Waste Management
Carrolls 38 Swine Farm (Reg . # 82-466)

Dear Mr. Faison:
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation for failing to follow or implement your waste
management plan. This is a violation of Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code,
Chapter 2, Subchapter 2H, Section .0217(d).
An inspection of your swine farm was conducted by Regional DEM staff on March 26,
1996 and it revealed an unpermitted discharge of animal waste to the waters of Turkey Creek.
These waters are considered waters of the State and are classified as class C-SW waters.
During the above inspection, regional staff observed that irrigation equipment had been
positioned in such a manner that waste was being sprayed directly into a field ditch and waste
was also running off the application field. This field ditch was visually traced by DEM staff and
it was confirmed that the ditch allowed significant amounts of waste to be discharged into the
waters of Turkey Creek. In addition, another nearby spray field was also noted to be severely
ponded and waste was observed leaving the field. This is in clear violation of your plan as it
plainly states :
"I also certify that the waste will be applied on the land according to this plan at
the appropiate times and at rates that no runoff occurs"

24. Do or have discharges occurred in response to a storm event less severe than the 25-

c rr in the put dpringa appligation event& Such a conclusioni5 based
on the condition of the spay field which appears to have hgen compacted and
matted ov_eltime d1je to the long term presence of grazing cattle. In addition, the
prgximity andf the fieLd di lso incmiso thelikelihood

not require a 25year. 24 hour storm event to cause a discharge It -is -also important
to note that, the lagoon did have the minimum freeboard and storage of 19" on both
inspections.
25. What is the degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to public
health,or to private property resulting from the violation?: The discharge has caused
ih- , introduction of nuts nts into thg receiving stneam., that will cause or add to the
possibility of algal blooms and acceleriAted eutrol2hication of thf, $low moving vyateri

H owever_ it was also
noted earlier
that other spray fields were severely

Dear Mr. Buchan,
In response to your visit to Farm 37 & 38 in Sampson County on
March 26, we are initiating the following actions:
- Eleminate the small surface drain running parallel to the
larger open ditch
- Establish a new fence 25 feet from the remaining ditch (it has
a fence on the NE side)
- Meet with the farm manager and operator to review
management procedure and calibration of the traveling gun
- Determine the increase in travel speed needed to prevent over -
application and runoff and utilize this information for future
spraying
- Make recommendations that a traveler be assigned full time to
these two farms in order to make more frequent applications at
lighter rates. This will allow the operator to fully utilize
good weather conditions along with proper plant uptake of
nutrients
- As part of regular management program, check soil compaction
and aerate with proper equipment if deemed necessary. This
would permit better infiltration and less chance of runoff.
it is our intent to utilize the nutrients produced on this farm in
a manner that will not result in surface runoff or contamination of
ground water. We will make every effort to manage this farm in an
environmental safe manner.
If additional information is needed, please give me a call.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Howard,
•JJ .
FA!',L-T ;
This letter is in response to an inspection at one of our farms on
March 26, 1996. Mr. Ed Buchan informed us of the situation in a
very timely manner which enabled us to take immediate steps to
correct a management mistake. Mr. Bob McLeod, Farming and Waste
Management Supervisor, immediately went to the farm and met with
the farm staff. On March 27, Bob and Howard Hobson, along with
farm personnel went back to determine how to prevent future runoff
during irrigation. The following actions were taken regarding the
short term and long term management requirements:
- stopped irrigation when problem was discovered
- Met with farm personnel to look at the site and review
procedures
- Eleminate a small surface drain running parrallel to the larger
open ditch
- Establish a new fence 25 feet from the remaining surface drain
- Check the calibration of the sprayer and determine the increase
in travel speed needed to prevent over -application
- As part of our regular management program, check soil
compaction and aerate with proper equipment if deemed necessary
- Hire additional personnel to work with waste application
program. Special attention will be given to farms with
specific soil and topography limitations
As pointed out by Mr. Buchan, this event was a management error
that we try very hard to prevent from occurring. I respectifully
request a remission regarding this inspection. We are very aware
of the attention on water quality and are continuing to improve our
farming activities along with our growers.
Thank you for considering this matter and call if you need
additional information.

Commercial N to apply on planned acreage--------: 0 lbs./year
Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically
developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the
soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for
your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan
uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis
report for your waste management facility.

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a
detailed justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure
for contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the
assessment letter. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an
administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of
your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no
factual or legal issues in dispute. You must execute and return to this office
the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement which you
believe establishes whether.
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-
282. 1 (b) were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage
resulting from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous
violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining
necessary remedial actions.
Please submit this information to the attention of:
Mr. Steve W. Tedder
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ

tIORED p� F
Carroll's Foods regrets the accidental discharge of waste from a discharge pipe from a house
which was emptying into the lagoon_
We have implemented the following policy with the farm managers:
I. Should a discharge line become clogged, they are to report the problem prior to any
attempted repair. Once repair has been authorized and upon completion of the repair,
inspection of the pipe will be done to insure it has been installed to the original condition.
2. Inspection of all discharge lines to lagoons will occur on a routine basis by environmental
technician.
3. Pumping of the lagoon will be done as the weather permits, and it is our desire to maintain
the lagoon below the emergency storage level. However, during the period October 1997 -
February 19, 1998 we have had over 28" of rainfall which surpasses our 25" temporary
storage capacity of the lagoon. In addition we have had limited pumping windows due to
wet soils and frequent rains. Emergency action has been implemented inside the houses to
limit water use to very essential needs.
Again, we regret this event occurred and will make every effort to prevent future occurrences.
Sincerely,
Fred Cumbo
Environmental Technician

Re: Letter dated April 8, 1996
The following actions have been implemented at Farrar 3 8 :
-Small surface drain has been eliminated by land forming.
-Land application operators have received refresher training in application
operating procedures.
-Irrigation equipment has been assigned to the complex on a full time basis to
allow operators greater flexibility in making applications.
-A soil aerator was purchased (delivered May 1, 1996) for use on spray fields to
reduce soil compaction and potential for runoff.
-Water conservation measures on the farm have been reviewed to minimize the
amount of waste water to be applied. This is an effort to reduce the number of
application events, thus allowing application to take place under the most ideal
conditions.
In addition to the immediate corrective actions indicated above, we have ordered
equipment and scheduled installation of nipple waters on the farm to determine if we can
further reduce the volume of waste water_ Also we are currently investigating alternative
irrigation designs to determine if more flexibility can be incorporated into application
procedures.
We are fully committed to .0200 compliance and regret this incident. We have had a long
standing commitment to environmentally sound waste management. We respectfully
request a remission regarding this inspection.

This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
contr o 1. The time requi red for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to so i I tend i t i ons, flushing operations, and -
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water- is recogni--ed as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include honey wa3�,n s
(sprayer or injection) and irrigation (center pivot, guns, or.
travelers). Care needs to be taken when applying waste to
prevent damage to crops or runoff from the field.
The fol lowin3 items are to be carried out:
1. Begin pump -Cut of the lagoon when fluid level reaches invert
of outlet pipes.
S
2. Step pump -out before fluid depth is Iess than feet deep
(this prevents the loss of favcrable bacteria).
. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigatior, is one
inch, and maximum recommended application rate is 0.4 inch per -
hour .
4. It is strongly recommended that the treatment Ia.aoon be
precharged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
startup. Prechargin3 reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should
be covered with effluent at all times.
. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed.
6. Repair any eroded areas and establish in vegetation.
7. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the d i schar3e ,f
.pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Natural F:esources and Community Development (DNRC:D) , Wastewater
Mangernent Section, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.
8. AI I surface runoff is to be diver-ted from the Ia.3oon to
adequate outlets.
NOTE: An analysis of the waste .rater- can be obtained at
commercial laboratories or at a fee of S3.00 per sample at:

Farm site visited as the result of observations made of an application event during an aerial flight. One corner of a pasture had standing
water and waste accumulated in it while the spray gun continued to apply in that area of the field. Ground investigation confirmed the
bservations made. DWQ staff spoke with farm representative Blake Moore who stated his staff would clean the area up using a mud
pump and put the waste back out onto a dry receptive area of the field.

Farm #2537 & Farm 42538
Facility No. 82- 466
Sampson County
Dear Mr. Nordin:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have a non -discharge permit for the
subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217, you have been found to
be in violation of your 211.0217 Permit.
On September 16, 2003, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality were conducting an aerial flight and observed an irrigation event at the above named
facility. The application equipment appeared to be applying wastewater onto ponded areas in the
field. The subsequent follow-up visit revealed the presence of standing wastewater in the far
corner of a coastal bermuda cow pasture near the wood line. The accumulation of standing water
and waste water covered approximately one quarter acre.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. Avoid overapplication of waste either agronotiiicall;; or hydraulically.
2_ inspect spray fields before and during irrigation to prevent application of waste onto
standing water and excessive ponding. Special emphasis should be placed on low lying
sections of fields where waste water may collect.
Modify application equipment or spray procedures to prevent the spraying of wastewater
onto areas of standing water.

RE: Farm 2537 -- 2538 Facility #82 - 466 NOV
Dear Mr. Rawls:
785 Hwy. 24150
Warsaw, NC 28398
+ACT 82003
In response to your letter of September 18,2003, following are our planned or completed actions and
information for the items noted:
1) We irrigated using a hard hose traveler September 1 e on pull 19C from 7:00 AM to 10:00
AM. We applied 0.42 inches per acre and ended with an approximate nitrogen balance of
43 Ibs on the coastal Bermuda. We were compliant with hydraulic and agronomic loading
limits. A narrow loafing area created by cattle (cattle were in the pasture at the time of the
event) held the water that the inspectors noted at approximately 3:15 PM. A company
representative went to the site immediately upon notification, to meet with the inspectors.
Upon his arrival, he was informed that the inspectors had left a few minutes before.
2) The land tech was on site and determined the field was sufficiently dry for an irrigation
event. There has been and will be on going training for employees to correctly inspect
spray fields and apply wastewater. Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken on
employees that do not follow regulatory and company rules and procedures.
3) Personnel are trained to modify equipment or procedures to prevent the spraying of
wastewater onto areas of standing water. Again, this is part of our on going training.
4) The small amount of water in question was pumped to a dry receptive area by company
personnel. The area in question was considerably smaller than one quarter acre.
5) Field improvement is planned to remediate the loafing area. This will include sub soiling,
adding top soil and leveling the area.
6) Please note the field report does not state the time of the fly over in relation to the irrigation
event and what the inspectors would have seen.
Thank you for your consideration. I may be reached at 910-296-3731.

Carroll's Farm #2538 Discharge 12-2-99
Staff with Carroll's Foods at the farm site stated that on Monday l 1-29-1999, Mainor Tile Co.
Was on site to work on a turbine on one of the reels at the farm. Upon completion of the work,
the pump was started to test the reel. The pump was run for approximately fifteen minutes and
then shut down. A reading of the hour meter was then taken. At that time the equipment operator
was advised to winterize the system, since it was too windy to irrigate and due the forecast of
below freezing temperatures. Mr. Michael Graham and Mr. Dave Nordin of Land Management
were at the farm site and observed the equipment operator winterizing the system which included
draining the pump and disconnecting the hoses to the traveler. On Monday the lagoon level was
17", and the level was 19" at the time the pump was noticed running. The hour meter showed
eighteen hours of operation on Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. Therefore farm staff feels the pump was
started at approximately 10:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Mr. Michael Graham advised that no pumping
activity was planned until after the cold weather snap. He also advised that whomever started the
pump was familiar with the operation of the pump and knew to replug the drain for the impeller,
which had been opened to drain the pump. The pump was also set to low idle at a speed which
would just keep the primer valve open. Farm staff also advised that there were beer bottles found
along the path to Farm # 2537. The pump was noticed running by the equipment operator at
approximately 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday who reportedly cut it off and immediately went to the reel
where the pipe had been disconnected. He then notified other staff members of the discharge. The
waste had been flowing from the hose at the reel and through the field and into a drainage feature.
The drainage feature then meanders through the property to the south and under the roadway to
Turkey Creek which flows into Six Runs Creek. Farm staff' immediately began to block the
drainage feature at five different places and began pumping the captured waste back onto the over
seeded bermuda field using a portable pump and pvc pipe. I was told that they pumped out the
drainage feature for approximately 5-5 hours during the night on Wenesday.
At the time of the investigation the waste had been pumped from the drainage feature and it had
been reopened and clear water was observed flowing through it_ The waste that had escaped was
not observed downstream from the entrance point approximately 1/4 mile downstream Turkey
Creek is a slow moving creek with a lot of debris and beaver dams throughout. It is the opinion of
the investigator the waste is settling in the slow moving waters and should not create a problem
downstream of this facility. The above information was gathered during the investigation and
through interviews with farm staff.

Hog waste spills into Sampson
County waterway
By Josh Shaffer
Staff writer
TURKEY -- Nearly 200,000 gallons of hog waste spilled from a Sampson
County farm Wednesday, emptying into a nearby creek.
The waste was pumped out of a Carroll's Foods
lagoon for several hours before a worker
noticed.
By the time workers shut off the pump, the
waste had flowed into Turkey Creek and a
nearby swamp.
"It's a major spill," said Ernie Seneca,
spokesman for the state Division of Water
There are 2,000 hogs on the farm, which is near
the Duplin County line. No one from Carroll's
could be reached for comment Thursday.
Seneca said the spill poses no danger to
drinking water.
"It spread out in the swamp, and the swamp will break it down over time,"
he said_
Inspectors found no fish kills at the site. They did find debris from Hurricane
Floyd, which they said will help break down the waste.
It is too soon to say if anyone will be fined, Seneca said. The cause is still
under investigation.
The waste started out in a lagoon. There is a hose running between that
lagoon and the field where the waste is applied as fertilizer.
Along that line, a hose had been disconnected to keep it from freezing in
the recent cold weather, Seneca said. But somehow, the pump was
activated, sending the waste out of the disconnected hose.
It started flowing Tuesday night and continued into Wednesday. By the time
the spill was detected, the four -acre lagoon had dropped 2 inches.
"We're looking into how this pump became activated," Seneca said. The
farmer "has concerns that someone got on his property and cut it on."
George Upton shares that view. He is director of the Sampson County
Cooperative Extension Service_

a
"I know that outfit," he said, meaning Carroll's_ "I know this wasn't a
careless mistake."
The Sampson County Sheriff's Office responded to the spill. Sheriff Buck
McCullen could not say Thursday night whether there would be any further
investigation.
"I don't think there is any sabotage," he said.
This was a major spill, but small compared to disasters of the last few
years, Seneca said. A spill in 1995 made national headlines when 20
million gallons of hog waste escaped.

Last 7 Days TURKEY, N.C. (AP) -- Nearly 200,000 gallons of hog waste
spilled into a creek after a pump hose was disconnected at a
Sampson County farm, state environmental officials said.
By the time workers at a Carroll's Foods farm noticed the spill
and shut off the pump Wednesday, the waste had flowed into
Turkey Creek and a nearby swamp_
Ernie Seneca, a spokesman for the state Division of Water
Quality, described the incident as a major spill but said it poses
no danger to drinking water, and that no fish kills were found.
"It spread out in the swamp, and the swamp will break it down
over time," he said -
Investigators said a hose along a line running between a waste
lagoon and a field where the waste is applied as fenilizer had
been disconnected to keep it from freezing in the recent cold
weather.
Somehow, the spill was detected, the four -acre lagoon had
dropped two inches.
"We're looking into how this pump became activated," Seneca
said.
George Upton, an agricultural extension agent in Sampson
County, believes vandals are responsible for the spill, but Sheriff
Buck McCullen said he didn't think there was any sabotage -

FAYETfEVitlE � _G, rv. r=CE
This letter is in response to your June 4 follow-up visit at
Carrrllls Farms 37 and 38. Along with Bob McLeod, Manager for all
Carrrolls Farms, we observed and discussed the situation at both
farms. There was no runoff observed at either farm. Hay was being
baled in some fields with grazing going on in other fields. It was
evident that fields had been aerated. The liquid levels were well
below the maximum pumping level. Our major concerns are with the
existing surface drains in close proximity to streams. One of
these ditches has been filled, graded and planted in grass. Plans
are to run surveys on each of the ditches and determine which ones
can be replaced with subsurface drain tubing. Some drainage will
be required due to the various springs and wet areas. Those areas
where subsurface drainage along with land shaping are feasible will
be scheduled for elimination of ditches. Bob also mentioned
establishing a riparian area or manmade wetland at the end of a
pasture where the creek is less than 100 feet from the field. A
field investigation will be made to determine feasibility of this
practice.
Thank you for your cooperation and call if you need additional
information.

tr.
I am writing to request a remission or reduction of the civil penalty assessed against the above referenced farm.
I am not disputing the fact that small amount of effluent left one of the farm buildings and ultimately reached a
ditch.
The reasons I feel the assessment should be rescinded or reduced are:
1. The spill was the result of an obstruction in an underground line. The obstruction was not visible to the
farm workers. The spill was not due to negligence, it was an accident.
2. As soon as the spill was discovered responsible actions were taken by the farm management.
a. A diversion berm was immediately constructed to prevent additional runoff.
b. The discbarge line was cleared of the obstruction and repaired thus eliminating the source of the spill.
c. Farm management personnel immediately contacted proper DWQ officials to report the incident.
d. Instructions were given to -farm workers inside the buildings to heighten awareness of potential line
obstructing objects and prevent future incidents of this nature.
Had this incident been the result of farm employee negligence or management indifference I would make no
request for relief from this assessment. Everyone who has looked at this situation (including DWQ inspectors)
agrees that proper and responsible actions were taken immediately to minimize any potential environmental
impacts. To the best of my knowledge no observable environmental impacts resulted from this accident.
Your favorable response to this reasonable request will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Don Butler

VIATER QUALITY SEcT,Cq,1
I am writing to request a remission or reduction of the civil penalty assessed against the above referenced farm.
I am not disputing the fact that small amount of effluent left one of the farm buildings and ultimately reached a
ditch.
The reasons I feel the assessment should be rescinded or reduced are:
1. The spill was the result of an obstruction in an underground line. The obstruction was not visible to the
farm workers. The spill was not due to negligence, it was an accident.
As soon as the spill was discovered responsible actions were taken by the farm management.
a. A diversion berm was immediately constructed to prevent additional runoff.
b. The discharge line was cleared of the obstruction and repaired thus eliminating the source of the spill.
c. Farm management personnel immediately contacted proper DWQ officials to report the incident.
d. Instructions were given to farm workers inside the buildings to heighten awareness of potential line
obstructing objects and prevent future incidents of this nature.
Had this incident been the result of farm employee negligence or management indifference I would make no
request for relief from this assessment. Everyone who has looked at this situation (including DWQ inspectors)
agrees that proper and responsible actions were taken immediately to minimize any potential environmental
impacts. To the best of my knowledge no observable environmental impacts resulted from this accident.
Your favorable response to this reasonable request will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Don Butler

Dear Mr. Nordin:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have a non -discharge
permit for the subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H
.0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit -
On February 4, 2000, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality inspected the Carroll's Foods Farm #2537 and #2538
swine facilities in Sampson County. David Nordin, a Carroll's employee, reported
that wastewater had left the waste management system. An inspector from the
Division of Water Quality arrived on the site and observed that an earthen berm had
been installed to prevent additional wastewater from leaving the farm. Animal
waste had flowed from the back of one of the swine buildings and ultimately
discharged into Turkey Creek which is Class " C SW'waters. waters. The lagoon was also
observed to be in the emergency storage level (approximately 13 inches).
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. If not already completed, lower the lagoon level to the required freeboard on a
suitable waste application field as soon as weather permits and per the CAWMP.

SUBJECT: Response to Request Regarding Farms 2537 and 2538, Facility No. 82466
Dear Mr. Rawls:
I sent a letter to Mr. Jeffery Brown on February 30, 2000 regarding actions taken as a
result of the spill at Farm #2538. Presently, wastewater is being applied as weather
permits and per the CAWMP. It should also be noted that the spill did not occur due to
lagoon failure or irrigation runoff.
The spill occurred due to accidental blockage of a pipe flowing into the treatment lagoon.
The obstructed area was inside the fence and was not detected until liquid backed into the
house and flowed through the grass and away from the pad area. The pipe was cleaned
out and normal flow returned. Immediately upon discovering the accident, the farm crew
stopped flushing from the house and constructed a temporary earthen diversion to prevent
discharge to the waters of the state. The production department and farm manager were
informed of the event and have developed a protocol that should be help to prevent future
occurrences.
In order to prevent future freeboard deficiencies we are taking the following actions:
I. Made available an additional irrigation gun. This will help lower the liquid levels
faster particularly during favorable periods of bermuda applications.
2. As part of our operational plan, water saving devices such as pressure reducers and
swinging water nipples are planned for fiscal year 2001. Based upon previous trails
we estimate a 30% reduction in water use. The less water handled, the less
opportunities for spills.
3. Reviewed the original design regarding start/stop elevations. Due to working with a
variety of different designs, the decision was initially made to construct all liquid level

indicators with the same depth of temporary storage. This was 2 feet for most 12
foot deep anaerobic treatment lagoons. The depth at Farm #38 is 14 feet. Using this
value, the distance between start pump increases to 2.8 feet. A new indicator will be
constructed and installed at this farm. The extra storage capacity will allow for more
storage capacity during the winter months and help to prevent freeboard deficiencies.
4. A drainage pipe was removed and a berm constructed along the drive to allow surface
drainage to flow into a pasture rather than into the swamp.
Based upon the above information, I respectfully request that this farm not be
recommended for enforcement_ As noted, this incident was called in and immediate
actions were taken to prevent environmental damages. To my knowledge there were no
observed fish kills or deterioration of the plant and animal community. The release was
accidental and addressed immediately.
