SUBJECT: NOTICE OF DEFICIENCY
Oak Springs, Inc. Swine Facility
Registration No. 09-100
Bladen County
Dear Mr. Magill:
On November 3, 1998, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality inspected the Oak Springs swine facility. It was
observed that several of the irrigation sprinklers were located within the 100
foot setback from wells. It was also observed that an over -application of
plant available nitrogen (PAN) occurred on the rye overseed and that the
lagoon dikes needed the small trees removed and the eroded areas repaired.
In addition, hogs had been partially buried in a trench and one of the
discharge pipe supports needs replacing.
In regard to the deficiencies noted during the inspection, the following
actions are requested:
1. Consult with a technical specialist for assistance in regard to the
required setback from a waste application field and a water well and
make any corrections necessary.
2. Consult with a technical specialist for assistance in regard to possible
options available to assist in the establishment of a suitable cover grass
on the lagoon dikes to prevent erosion and options available to kill small
trees to prevent annual removal requirement.
Plant all the required crops per your CAWMP in the fall to allow
adequate waste application area to prevent future over -application from
reoccurring on your small grain overseed.

Re: Notice of Violation at Oak Springs Farm Facility 09-100
Dear Mr. Rawls,
A May 15, 2003 inspection revealed that animal wastewater applications were made on
small grain on 12/9102 (103.2 minutes) and on 12/10/02 (60 minutes). The Nutrient
Utilization Plan (NUP) lists a grandfathered rate of 80 Lbs. of PAN to be applied Oct -
Nov, Feb -March. However, it is universally accepted and standard practice according to
the NRCS Technical Guide to allow an application window of Oct -March if 50 Lbs. of
PAN or less are applied. Such is the case here, where in our two spray fields we applied
38.6 Lbs. and 47.2 Lbs. PAN over the entire growing season (see attached). The last two
applications on December 9'b & 10'' amounted to just 9.8 Lbs applied. Finally, as
indicated on our Crop Yield Report (attached) we removed 64 Lbs. PAN from the field in
question and 83 Lbs. from the other field.
We commit to add commentary from a Technical Specialist explaining any planned
variances from our NUP.
Since we did follow approved agronomic loading and had no environmental impact, we
ask that the NOV be rescinded
If there is anything that you require in addition to what I have attached please contact me
right away at 910-289-6439, ext.4589. Thank you.
