Your facility would then be considered deemed permitted as long as you stay below the 100 confined cattle threshold. If you ever wish to increase your herd to exceed the 100 confined cattle threshold, they would be considered a new facility and would be required to meet the standards in place at that time. The waste structure must be maintained to prevent any discharge to surface waters, but no specific records are required. Once no longer needed/in use, the structure will eventually need to be closed to NRCS standards. The timing of that closure is completely at the discretion of the owner. As a deemed facility, they would not be subject to routine inspections, etc. However, the rules for deemed facilities 1SA NCAC 02T.1303 does require that the waste be applied at no greater than agronomic rates. You have an existing waste plan, so you know what agronomic rates are, but you will need to take waste samples for analysis and track application rates to be sure you are not over applying. Those records would not be required for us to review, but would be for their own benefit and to demonstrate compliance should a problem ever arise. Below is the address to send a request for a rescission of your permit if you choose to do so. N. C.
