Stephen Jones Page 2 February 16, 2012 Violation 2: SECTION Ill OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS (3) A suitable year round vegetative cover shall be maintained such that crop health is optimized, allows for even distribution of effluent and allows inspection of the irrigation system. On 03 November 2011 a site visit was conducted by Jim Barber, a member of the Fayetteville Regional Office's Aquifer Protection Section. Irrigation of sections of the spray field was in progress with lino indications of a suitable seasonal winter crop to uptake nutrients being applied. Required Corrective Action for Violation II: If you have not already done so, immediately take actions to establish a suitable seasional winter crop. Violation 3: SECTION III OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS (5) Irrigation shall not be performed during inclement weather or when the ground is in a condition that will cause ponding or runoff. On 21 December 2011 a site visit was conducted by Tony Honeycutt and Jim Barber, members of the Fayetteville Regional office's Aquifer Protection Section. Irrigation of the disposal field was taking place at the time of the visit with no supervision on site. Rainfall was observed while traveling to the site, while on site (approximately 30 minutes) and upon leaving the site. Required Corrective Action for Violation III: If you have not already done so, hire appropriate personnel to manage and operate the facility or install a rain break devise that stops the irrigation process with the on -set of rain.

Caution must be taken not to damage the integrity of the liner when installing the gauge. Lagoon marker was not readable (numbers were washed away at water line at the 6' mlark). Lagoon marker was not reset per site visit and information provided to the facility by e-mail and US Postal Service (September 2010). Required Corrective Action for Violation 5: If you have not already done so, use the supplied information to make the freeboard marker readable and accurate. D. Stephen Jones Page 3 February 15, 2012 Violation 6: Section VI GENERAL CONDITIONS (8) The Permittee must pay the annual fee within thirty (30) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly may cause the Division to initiate action to revoke this permit pursuant to 15A NCAC 02T..0105(e).

The Division of Water Quality requests that in addition to the specified correctiveaction above; please submit a timeline to address any item that cannot be immediately rectified. A written response to each of the above violations is to be submitted on or before March 16, 2012.

Regional Aquifer Protection Supervisor NCDENR/DWQ/FRO cc: APS Central Office File ;AFS FR Fir6 `: : Bay Tree Lakes POA, Inc. 640 Bay Tree Drive Harrells, NC 28444 Attn: Clark Wooten, President Barber, Jim From: Barber, Jim Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2012 4:08 PM To: Hardee, Ed; Barnhardt, Art Cc: Honeycutt, Tony Subject: RE: NC DENR Civil Penalty Assessment Letter: Lake Creek Corporation Ed; After reading Mr. Jones' letter requesting penalty remission, I provide the following reibuttal: 1). Two permit modifications for upgrading the infrastructure at Baytree Lakes/Lake Creek Corp have been submitted in the past and approved to increase flow. Baytree/Lake Creek Corp has been cited for flow violations in the past and most recently paid the penalty for those violations. Neither modification has been constructed at this time due to cost issues cited by past Baytree/Lake Creek Corp staff. It was pointed out to Baytree/Lake Creek Corp staff at a meeting in Fayetteville, several years ago, that up- grades to infrastructure could be made and a petition filed with the Utilities Commission to request a rate increase to recoup the expenditures that Baytree/Lake Creek Corp incurred. To our knowledge neither occurred; 2). As far as the issue of a year round crop being at the site, Fayetteville doesn't contend that bermuda isn't at the site. The violation was for irrigating on bermuda when it was dormant during the months of November and December without a winter cover crop of small grain (i.e. rye or oats), therefore a suitable year round crop was not in existence; 3). In conjunction with the lack of a suitable year round crop; when site visits where made in November and December the irrigation system was in operation with no operator on -site and a steady rain was fallinig; 4). According to statements from officers of the Baytree Lakes Homeowners Association and information provided by Public Water Supply Section in Fayetteville (and from Bladen county personnel and the local newspaper), Baytree/Lake Creek Corp sold their water system to Bladen County in December 2011. With that Baytree Lakes homeowners are receiving a monthly utility bill from both Baytree and Bladen County. According to a office of the HOA I spoke with earlier this year (when trying to find a telephone number to reach Steve Jones), the residents are/where still paying Lake Creek Corp $40/month for utility services and approximately $20/month to Bladen County. Baytree/Lake Creek Corp is still receiving ii evenue and only providing half of the services to the residents; 5). Since Baytree/Lake Creek Corp hasn't had a back-up ORC for over a year and a ORC for nine months, performed no analytical testing on wastewater, and performed no analytical testing on groundwater, it would seem that money has been saved by not paying for these services while receiving monthly utility bill payments from residents; 6). With the issues described in item #5, the claim that "these violations did not result in harm to the natural resources of the State, public health, etc" cannot be substantiated without any evidence being supplied and is only the opinion of a non -certified, nor trained individual in wastewater treatment technology; 7). Baytree/Lake Creek Corp did not respond to the Notice of Violation issued by the Division by the deadlines outlined in the NOV. Therefore the issuance of the Enforcement with administrative penalty was warranted. Baytree/Lake Creek Corp did not respond to the Division (either by phone, email or written correspondence) by the required deadlines in the Enforcement and only submitted a response (after the statutory deadline) after hiring a contract operations company to assist with preparing a response to the Enforcement; 8). In reviewing BIMS today concerning the annual permit administration fee of $1310/year ($2620 total for 2010 & 2011) does not appear to be have been paid; 9). Lastly, in reviewing past records from the Surface Water Protection Section files; Baytree/Lake Creek Corp applied for a Non - Discharge permit in 2000 to remedy problems/violations that could only be corrected by upgrading the treatment infrastructure at the site to maintain their NPDES permit. The facility was cited with violations while under the NPDES permit and a no tap moratorium was instituted with the last NPDES permit issued to the facility. The spray irrigation system was put into service in 1 the sumfmer of 2005 and since that time has had numerous violations relating to site operations, hence the NOV's and ersforcement actions with penalties. With all of the above, I feel that the remissions request should not be considered or a lowed and that the penalty assessment be upheld. Furthermore, there are no facts to dispute. Baytree/Lake Creek Corp didn't have certified operators at the facility, hasn't paid their annual permit fee for two years, hasn't submitted valid monthly monitoring reports for nine months and hasn't submitted two groundwater monitoring events as specified by the permit. If additional information is needed or clarification of the above information provided, please don't hesitate to call me at 910- 433-3340 or email. I will be more than willing to participate in a meeting at the Fayetteville Regional office, if requested by Baytree/Lake Creek Corporation to clarify any items or permit issues that Baytree/Lake Creek Corporation may have.
