Dear Mr_ Hardee:
On May 8, 1998, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality conducted an annual inspection of your swine
farm located off SR 1708 (Rosendale Road) in Bladen County. The
inspection revealed that the farm has insufficient documentation to explain
the low level observed in the lagoon when 26 inches of rain were recorded at
the farm during the preceding 5 months. No waste samples were available
for the preceding 120 days of records. The bermuda grass field by SR 1708
had been disked and no crops were established. The remaining fields had a
cover crop of oats -and rye in various stages of seed.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following information
be provided:
1. Submit a copy of all irrigation (pump) records for the farm for the
preceding growing season to include a copy of the weekly lagoon levels.
2. Cut and remove the oats immediately and evaluate the bermuda grass to
determine if adequate.

Dear Mr. Hardee:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have a non -discharge
permit for the subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H
.0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit.
On March 2, 2000, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division
of Water Quality inspected the Terra Nova swine facility in Bladen County.
Wastewater was observed ponded in portions of the spray field along with the
surface water drainage ditch adjacent to the lagoon. Another site visit was made to
the facility on March 31, 2000. It was observed at this time that the facility was
irrigating and wastewater was observed ponding once again. Wastewater was also
observed ponded in areas other than where the irrigation gun was in operation
(appeared to be the result of previous application events). General Permit condition
I1.4 states that "Land application rates shall be in accordance with the CAWMP.
In no case shall land application rates exceed the Plant Available Nitrogen rate for
the receiving crop or result in runoff during any given application.".
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. Provide a detailed explanation as to why wastewater was applied in such a
manner to cause excessive ponding within the application field on at least two
different occasions.

2. Perform a more detailed and thorough inspection of the irrigation system along with spray field
conditions on a regular basis, before and during an irrigation event, to prevent ponding and runoff
of wastewater.
3. Comply with all conditions of the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan and the General
Permit when applying animal waste.
Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in the facility's General Permit being
revoked and being required to obtain an individual non -discharge permit for the facility.
Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking
enforcement actions for this violation or any past or future violation. Furthermore, the Division of
Water Quality has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per day per
violation.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact either Mr.

Dear Mr. Beard:
On February 8, 2006 you or staff from your farm notified the Fayetteville
Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality, as required by General Permit

inches. General Permit condition V.3 states that "The maximum waste level in
lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the CAWMP. At a minimum,
maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not exceed the level that provides
adequate storage to contain the 25 -year, 24-hour storm event plus as additional 1 foot of
structural freeboard."
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 within the

Regarding letter dated April 12, 2000, following are replies to the items addressed:
A detailed inspection of the irrigation system and spray field will be done on a
regular basis before and during irrigating spray field to check for ponding of waste
water and also drainage of rain water. Checking for saturated soils before irrigating
will prevent any and all runoff. Conditions of the Certified Animal Waste
Management Plan and the General Permit will be followed at all times under all
circumstances.
One low lying area will be filled in to prevent ponding, When rain water dries out of
this area, dirt is already stock piled next to said area for filling in. Any other area
will be treated likewise if needed.
This facility will always maintain all rules and regulations that come with applying
waste water_ Also, this facility prides itself in neatness and complying with all
aspects of operating a swine facility.
if you need further information or explanation, contact Willie Beard at 910-645-
