Easley, Governor September 18, 2002 MEMORANDUM TO: Michelle Barnett Non -Discharge Permitting Unit FROM: Paul Sherman THROUGH: Paul Rawls\ Regional Water Quality Supervisor SUBJECT: Permit Modification Staff Report Clear Run 2,3,4,& 5 Farm Facility No. 82-326 Sampson County William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary Alan Klimek, P.E., Director Division of Water Quality 1 have completed review of the submitted information pertaining to the above referenced facility and include the following recommendations and comments: 1. Waste Utilization Plan • There are two different PAN rates used for the small grain overseed (75 ib. & 100 lb.). All seven fields are coded as "Small Grain -Grazed" and should either be 75 lb. or 50 lb. rates, unless an old WUP can be provided to grandfather the higher rates. 2. Wetted Acre Determination • A map must be provided that is to scale and includes the entire farm on one sheet. Maps included in this package did not have a scale and were cut up onto several different pages. • Wetted acre calculations are not on approved computational worksheets. A separate computational worksheet must be used for each field, including wetted diameter and sprinkler spacing for each field. • The field data worksheet was not included in this package. The field data worksheet contains pump and sprinkler information and is required for wetted acre determinations.

General Comments Most of the above referenced comments directly influence the facility's total wetted acreage as compared to the PAN produced. It is the opinion of this office that the submitted package does not justify the permit modification. Corrections to the WUP and wetted acreage determination must be completed in order to show that this facility has enough wetted acres to treat the increased PAN production generated by the increase in animal numbers.
