Subject: Notice of Violation and Revocation for Nonpayment
Morgan Swine Farm
Permit Number: AWSO40011
Anson County
In accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.10G, all animal operations who receive an animal
waste management system permit will be charged in each year of the term an annual permit fee. Annual permit fees are
billed following the issuance of the permit and then annually thereafter on the anniversary of that date. Your animal waste
management system permit was issued on 3/5/99.
Your annual permit fee for the period of 3/5/99 - 3/4/2000 is $150.00. Your payment was due 5/6/99. Because
this fee was not fully paid within 30 days after being billed, this letter initiates action to revoke the subject permit, pursuant
to 15 NCAC 2H .0205 (c) (4). and G.S. 143-215.1 (b) (3).
Effective 60 days from receipt of this notice, the subject permit is hereby revoked unless the required Annual
Animal Waste Management System Permit fee for your animal operation is received within that time. Operation of an
animal waste managgment system without a valid permit is a violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and is
subject to the assessment of a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day. Your payment should be sent to:

SUBJECT: NOTICE OF DEFICIENCY
Morgan Swine Farm
Facility No. 04-11
Anson County
Dear Mr. Morgan:
On April 1, 1997, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality
inspected the Morgan Swine Farm. It was observed that one of the flush pipes leading from the breeding
barn had ruptured and animal waste had been seeping up to the top of the ground and running downgrade
to the toe of your lagoon. The waste was then ponding in said low area next to the lagoon. The waste was
not flowing at the time of the inspection but there is a ditch within 50 feet of the ponded area. It is the
opinion of the inspector that if any more waste were to seep from the broken pipe, the waste would
probably be introduced to the ditch and ultimately to waters of the state.
In regard to the deficiencies noted during the inspection, the following actions are requested:
1. Immediately initiate measures that will cease the leakage from the broken pipe so that no more
waste bypasses the lagoon system.
2. Install a start -stop pumping marker in the lagoon.
Please provide a written response to this office on or before April 22,1997 as to the actions taken
or proposed to be taken to resolve this deficiency. Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving this
facility of the responsibility and liability of any violations that have resulted or may result from these
deficiencies.
