Dear Mr. Dunbar:
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 April 12, 2000; staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality
conducted an annual inspection of your swine farm located off SRI 118 in Hoke County. During that
routine inspection, it was noted that trash piles remained in the newly cleared land around pulls #13 and
#14. You were instructed to remove the trash piles to accommodate irrigation and facilitate newly
sprigged Coastal Bermuda growth. The Division of Soil and Water conducted a compliance review of
the farm'on October 19, 2000 and noted that the trash piles had not been cleared and the Bermuda grass
needed to be resprigged.
Staff from the Division of Water Quality conducted the 2001 annual inspection for the above
referenced swine farm on June 22, 2001. During that inspection, it was noted that the trash piles around
pulls #13 and #14 had not been removed as previously instructed. It was also noted that resprigging had
not occurred on these pulls as previously instructed. The inspection also revealed little to no Coastal
Bermuda stand in pulls #7, #13, and #14 with the dominant vegetative cover being competition weeds.
A soil sample had not been submitted for 2000.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:

Dear Mr. Dunbar:
On January 10, 2000, you or staff from your farm notified the Fayetteville Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality, as required by General Permit condition 111.6.e, that the freeboard
level of the lagoon was less than the minimum required by the General Permit. The liquid level of
the lagoon was reported as 15 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 lagoonslstorage ponds must not exceed the level that provides
adequate storage to contain the 25 -year, 24-hour storm event plus an 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 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]

REFFICE
As you and Tom Kitzmiller discussed Friday, January 28, we are sending you a
note covering the things we plan to do in an effort to prevent the lagoon from reaching a
critical level.
David Faircloth will observe the lagoon walls on Wednesday, February 2, as a
preliminary to a visit by a technical specialist. He will be authorizing changes in the grade
and slope of the back end of the lagoon. This will result in water running away from the
lagoon instead of into it, as is now occurring.
All leaking water nozzles will be cleaned and reworked so as to eliminate any
leaks. We will evaluate cost and savings of phasing in hanging watering systems.
Until lagoon level is lowered, we will do no soaking of houses prior to washing.
Gerome Lewis of Farm Land Ag., feels the rye grass will be ready for pumping as
soon as fields are dry enough.
These things will be implemented right away. We have appreciated you help and
consideration in this manner.

A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Bob Heath. on 3110199 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility
that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the
following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Bob Heath the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Bola Heath, at 225 Green Street, Suite
714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact Bob Heath at [phone]. If within 90 days you are unable
to provide Bob Heath with the information you are automatically required to complete
a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days
of receipt of this letter.

Category 2:
Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next
180 days. if the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.

David Fairclouth of Soil and Water and Brent Coffer the Extension Agent with
Richmond County came by our farm for inspection. Their recommendations on your
points were very helpful.
On your first recommendation regarding the lagoon dike grass they recommended
planting a new type of grass; maybe Lesperdisa.
On the second point we are keeping weekly freeboard records as we speak.
Mr. Fairclouth and Mr. Coffer are performing a survey to see what approximate
acres of spray should be. They said this would be done in a few weeks. We will report
the findings ASAP!
Our over seeding program was done on the advice of our hay man. He told us that
the wheat would reseed after we cut it last. It finally started growing the last three weeks
and now is three feet high. We will cut the wheat any day now.
Your last point is about our records for the pumping. We had a second operator
who was licensed to keep records but he left and we cannot find him to get the records.
He is no longer in our employment but we are correcting the situation.

Dear Mr. Dunbar:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have a non discharge
permit for the subject animal viraste,disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217,
you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit.
On March 10, 1999, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division
of Water Quality performed an annual inspection of the Hogs Breath Farm in Hoke
County. During this inspection it was noted that the lagoon banks did not have a
suitable vegetative cover as required in Section 11, item 10 of your General Permit No.
AWS70001. The freeboard records were not being maintained weekly as required in'
Section III, item 2 of the General Permit. In addition, the certified animal waste
management plan (CAWMP) on-site at the time of the inspection revealed different
acreages and field numbers for the bermuda crop and the small grain overseed crop for
the same fields. Several of the areas identified in the CAWMP as waste application
fields had limitations that prevented waste application such as no irrigation hydrants
or water wells in the fields. There was no cover crop on the fields as specified in the
CAWMP. The irrigation records available for 1998 and 1999 indicated that the
facility only pumped a total of approximately 801,000 gallons in the past 15 months
while the facility's anticipated waste generated for the time period is approximately
9,800,000 gallons.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following item(s) be addressed:

-'�
establishment of a suitable cover grass on the lagoon dikes and the
surface water diversion ditch at the base of the lagoon dike to prevent

We have grass growing on the inside of our lagoon but the top is kind of slow
growing. I think the inside is growing well because the high lagoon water this winter
fertilized the sides.
We are cutting our wheat and hay now and will try to re -seed the top of the lagoon
again for the fifth time. We are having a hard time getting the grass to grow in the clay. I
am open to any suggestions you have on getting the grass to grow.

the lagoon along with the top and back side of the lagoon dikes failed to have
a suitable grass cover. The inside slopes of the dikes have some serious erosion
problems in several areas. Concrete has been applied to these areas to aid in
stabilizing the soil to prevent further erosion. These were the same problems
in which resulted in a notice of deficiency being issued last year. It was also
noted that irrigation records were not being kept for each pull listed for a field,
but by the entire field as one unit. These pumping records were not available
at time of original inspection, but were reviewed on April 9, 1998 when a
second trip was made to the farm. There was also a ditch at the base of the

Dear Mr. Dunbar:
On April 1, 1997, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality attempted to inspect the Hog's Breath swine facility. It was observed that the
certified animal waste management plan (CAWMP) was not on site and that no pump records
and no waste analysis were available for review.
A letter was issued by the Division of Water Quality requesting additional information on
or before April 18, 1997. A fax was received on April 18, 1997 with some of the requested
information. A copy of the certified animal waste management plan was submitted with a
questionable pump record IRR -1 form. No waste analyses or IRR -2 pump record forms were
ever received. The following deficiencies were identified during the inspection on April 1,
1997:
1. The lagoon dikes need to be planted in grass cover to prevent erosion.
2. A ditch has been dug around the foot of the lagoon dike and should be filled to prevent
erosion and possible failure of the dike. ,
In regard to'the deficiencies noted during the inspection and the CAWMP review, the
following actions are requested:
1. Contact a technical specialist to update the CAWMP to include the appropriate crops.
2. Consult with a technical specialist in regard to record keeping for the plant available
nitrogen (PAN) balance on the IRR -1 and IRR -2 forms.

OPERATTON AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoun is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with
min. odor control. The time required for Lhe planned fluid level to be
reached (permanent +.temporary storage) may vary due to soil conditions
flushing operations, and the amount of fresh Water added to the systam.
The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume
based on: 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after evaporation;
and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the
average of once every 25 years. The volume of waste generated from
a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year
and from year to year. This estimate is based on 7 inches of excess
rainfall whim is equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in
a year. The average annual excess rainfall is approximately a inches.
Therefore, an averse of 8 inches of excess rainfall will need to be
camped each year. T99 25 year rainfall will not be a Factor to consider
n an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be
available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
comping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). 2f the outlet pipe is not installed on the elevation to
begin pukping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin- An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment: depth (6 feet) .
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried outs
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of they initial
waste entering use lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. Whenrecharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liqu�d. Fresh water should not
be -used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before Viand application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid leval reaches eleva-
tion 55.6 as marred by permapRnt marker. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 53.5 4RPM or before the fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25. ear storm
is 416822 cubic feet or 3117832 gallons. As sated before, this
volume will vary considerably from year to year.

q. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
inch per hour.
5_ Keep vegetation on .the embankment. and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. ReVair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents'and
establlsh in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
a. Keep a minimum of 25 feat of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a wall.
9. The Clean Water Act of 19'17prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the united States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural. Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Magagement, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.,

Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically

The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown. and
method of application for your particular operation. The waste
must be land applied at a specified ratty to prevent pollution ;
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the
animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commeTcial
fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applLod. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogon as
the limiting nutrient. waste should be analyzed before each
application and annual soil testa are Encouraged so that all
Pant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield i
of the cropa to be grown. f
Several factors are important in implementing your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value
of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environ- r.
-irentally safe (satiner, Always APPLY waste based on the needs
of this crop to be "grown and the nutrient cantent of tho waste .
The amount of available nitrogcrifor plant use is dependanL on
