Jane,

Thank you for meeting Dennis and viewing the Price Closeout last
week. All work has been completed in accordance with the Project Summary
and Notice of Intent memo sent on 3/2/23. Attached is the final
application records that will correspond to the WUPs that were sent on
3/2/23. Thank you for working with us throughout this process and helping
us to officially remove these lagoons and facility from the NCDENR
database. You have been a great help throughout this entire process.

Side-note:

We will be working with Ricky Hayes to get you a finalized package for the
Strother Closure soon.

PS thank you for getting our CE for the 1217 Committee. No one has ever
stood up for us before by getting this done. I made the suggestion many
years ago and was bypassed. Thank You!

With Kind Regards,
Ronnie "Geno" Kennedy Jr.

Please accept this package as our intent to close out this operation.

MASON PRICE CLOSURE SUMMARY AND ACTION ITEMS

seasonal high water table was located within the normal water column of both lagoons,
2. Onsite borings were completed on average ground locations adjacent to both lagoons Primary
Lagoon #1 indicated a SHWT of 58". Secondary Lagoon #2 had a SHWT of 38"
3. Preliminary Water Column Samples and Sludge Samples taken on both the Primary and Secondary

Action Items

3. Once desired water levels are reached we will begin agitation and land application of sludge to
designated areas.

will ask DWR to view the work with us for the determination.
5. All inlet pipes to the lagoon from the barns will be removed.
6. We will breech both lagoons at designated areas on both lagoons that represent the lowest part of the
dam so they will not hold water.
