Stanly County
Dear Mr.Mabry:
You were notified by letter dated December 5, 1996, that you were required to designate a certified animal waste
management system operator as Operator in Charge for the subject facility by January 1, 1997. Enclosed with that
letter was an Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing
Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for
Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Our records indicate that these
completed Forms have not yet been returned to our office.
As was explained in the previous letter, a training and,certification program is not yet available for animal waste
management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry (with.a liquid waste system). Therefore owners of
these systems were allowed to request that they be issued temporary certifications until December 31, 1997. All that
was required to receive this temporary certification was the completion of the Application Form.
For you convenience,we are sending you additional copies of the Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically
for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste
Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management
System Operator. Please return this completed Form to this office as soon as possible but in no case later than April
25, 1997. This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in locating a certified
operator.
Please note that failure to designate an Operator in Charge of your animal waste management system, is a violation
of N.C.G.S. 90A-47.2 and you will be assessed a civil penalty unless an appropriately certified operator is designated.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility and liability for
any past or future violations for your failure to designate an appropriate Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please contact our Technical Assistance and Certification Group at
[phone].
Sincerely,
U
for
Steve W.Tedder,Chief
