Dear Mr. Myers:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June'21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by -January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 ormore swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poulty with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an OIC.
A training.and certification program is not yet available fo'r animal waste management systems involving
cattle, -horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water -Pollution Control, System Operators Certification Commission _
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire.December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To' obtain
a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste -Management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available ,by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of thewastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily`used to treat the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal -waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and,must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC.. If you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management systemyourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator.in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the, designation form and the application form must be completed•and
returned by.December 31, 1996.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919/733-0026.

Hey James,
I did some looking into this and it appears that the Myers Dairy facility #80-41 and
this Myers Forest Products are different. They are close by but separate by a
couple roads and a few miles. The 80-41 file makes no reference of the lagoon at
Myers Forest Products. So, I just sent a letter to Craig Myers acknowledging the
lagoon closure without a reference to a facility number and copied your office; here
we just file those facilities without an ID# in a folder of the corresponding
county.
Hope all is well,
Thomas.

It appears that the Myers Farm (Dairy) has been identified in the past as
Facility 80-41; however, I have not been able to locate any record that a Permit
was ever issued. _Please contact me should you require any additional
information.

Greetings James,
On Oct. 30th we received a lagoon closure form for Myers Forest Products,
Inc., indicating that there are no animals onsite and no lagoons remain open.
Do you have any idea what type of operation this was? I want to make a record
of this in BIMS but I'll have to make a new facility entry and will need to
enter an operation type.
Thanks for your help! Have a great weekend,
Thomas.

Thanks James! Looks like in BIMS that it had been an individual permit, but,. that it
was closed or rescinded or something; I'll have to look into it more tomorrow. I'11•
let you know if any other questions/issues arise.
