Subject: Notice of deficiencies at our Wet Creek facility #63-01, Holly Ridge #63-06,
Deerfield #63-07, Indian Hills #63-08, Dixie #63-03.
Dear Mr. Hasty,
I am writing in regards to the lack of current soil samples for the facilities 63-01,
63-06, 63-07, 63-08. We have taken and sent off samples as of May 16, 2000. When
results of the samples are returned the appropriate applications of lime will be done.
Facility 63-03 needed the rye over seed cut, this was done on May 5, 2000. This
would have been done earlier but weather did not permit such. Freeboard levels are
now being recorded. On May 9, 2000 Jerry Hall and Kevin William installed a
lagoon level marker.
Thank You,
Anthony Moore
