Dear Mr. Grady:

Subject: Sludge Survey Testing Dates
Certificate of Coverage No. AWS310165
S. Grady 3, 4, & 5
Animal Waste Management System
Duplin County
The Division of Water Resources (Division) received your sludge survey information on
September 23, 2020. With the survey results, you requested an extension of the sludge survey
requirement for lagoons 4-A and 4-B at the S. Grady 3, 4, & 5 facility. With the survey results,
you requested an extension of the sludge survey requirement for lagoon 4-A and 4-B at the S.
Grady 3, 4, & 5 facility. Due to the amount of treatment volume available, and the rate of sludge
accumulation for the lagoon, the Division feels that an extension is not appropriate at this time.
The next sludge survey for lagoons 4-A and 4-B at the S. Grady 3, 4, & 5 Farm should be
performed before December 31, 2020. Please retain this letter and keep it with your farm records
for reference.
Please call me at 919-707-3663 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
