Dear Sir:
On January 31, 2000, you or staff from your farm notified the Fayetteville Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality that the freeboard level of the lagoon was less than the minimum
required by the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). The liquid level of the lagoon
was reported as 15 inches. Condition #21 of the required specifications (MRCS Standard 633),
which is a component of the CAWMP, states "Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the
top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment
lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers.".
The Division of Water Quality will take no further action for this reported incident at this
time. However, you are asked to please notify this office in writing within 15 days of receipt of this
letter as to what date the lagoon was lowered to the required freeboard level. This information is
essential in determining if the lagoon was lowered within the specified time frame in which the Plan
of Action (POA) allotted. It will also close this event out within your file. If you have any questions
concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact myself at [phone].
