On July 17th I was sent a letter informing me that I had been assessed a $500
civil penalty for failure to submit an application for a Animal Waste General
Permit within the required 30 day after I received my notification. i received my
notification on the May 16th.
After receiving your letter notifying me of my fine I placed a call to Katharine
Keaton, who referred me to J.R. Joshi. Mr. Joshi informed me that that he still
had not received my information, which really surprised me, since I had sent it in
on the 12th of June. l looked in my files and found a copy of the original
application which I had sent in, and faxed Mr. Joshi a copy. 1 then went to
Piedmont Farm where I have to make copies, and resubmitted the information
via certified mail which was signed for there on July 28.
On June 12th, I spent close to an hour at Piedmont Farm Credit with Lucy Allen
making copies of all the information you requested. When we were finished she
even gave me the envelope to mail it in. I left there and went straight to the Post
Office. I had no idea that you had not received the packet until I received your
penalty letter. No other communications came from your department notifying me
that you hadn't received it. I have tried my best to comply with all the fast
changing regulations, and in good faith responded to your request. I feel this
penalty is totally unfair, and ask that it be remitted.

This is to confirm Mr. Yaklin's information to you concerning the preparation
and mailing of the necessary forms in connection with an Animal Waste General

On June 12, Mr. Yaklin was in our office and I personally made the copies
needed by him in reference to the above mentioned permit. Once I had all
the copies made, I provided Mr. Yaklin with an envelope and he went directly
from our office across the street to the post office.
Mr. Yaklin was in the office again on July 17, after receiving the letter stating

60 days of issuance of the COC under this general permit. This gauge shall have readily
visible permanent markings indicating the maximum liquid level at the top of temporary liquid
storage volume, minimum liquid level at the bottom of the temporary liquid storage volume,
top of darn elevations. Waste lagoon and stroage pond levels shall be recorded weekly on
forms supplied or approved by the DWQ".
In regard to the deficiencies noted during the inspection, the following action is requested:
1. Immeditately begin to record freeboard levels weekly in order to be in compliance with the
General Permit.
Please provide a written response to this office on or before June 25, 1999 regarding
corrective actions taken or planned. Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving this
facility of the responsibility and liability of any violations that have or may result from these
deficiencies. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call Jeffery Brown, at

A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure for
contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the assessment
letter. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative
hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an
administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in
dispute. You must execute and return to this office the attached waiver and
stipulation form and a detailed statement which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-282.I(b)
were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting
from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations;

necessary remedial actions.

FINDINGS AND DECISION
AND ASSESSMENT OF
CIVIL PENALTIES
Acting pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources, I, Kerr T. Stevens, Director of the Division of Water
Quality (DWQ), make the following:
I. FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Bryan Wilson owns and operates the Wilson's Swine Farm, a swine operation in
Richmond County.
B. Bryan Wilson was issued Certificate of Coverage AWS770017 under General
Permit AWG100000 for Wilson's Swine Farm on June 26, 1998, effective June
26, 1998, with an expiration date of April 30, 2003.
C. Condition No. V. 3. of the "General Conditions" of the General Permit states in
part that "The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed
that specified in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (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 an additional one (1) foot of structural freeboard."
D. The 25 -year, 24-hour storm event for the facility's location is between six (6) and
six point five (6.5) inches according to the National Weather Service, Technical
Paper 40, Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States, 1961.
E. Based on the 25 -year, 24-hour storm event of six point five (6.5) inches and one
foot of required structural freeboard, the waste level in the lagoon for Wilson's
Swine Farm shall not exceed eighteen point five (18.5) inches.

F. Condition No. III. 6. e. of the "Monitoring and Reporting Requirements" of the
General Permit requires that the permittee shall report by telephone to the
appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24
hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of failure to maintain storage
capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater than or equal to that required in
Condition V. 3. of the issued permit.
G. DWQ staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office inspected Wilson's Swine Farm
on February 28, 2000 and observed that the waste level of the lagoon was six (6)
inches which exceeded the level specified in the CAWMP.
H. The Fayetteville Regional Office had not received notification from Bryan Wilson
that the waste level exceeded the level specified in the CAWMP.
I. The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled
$135.36.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following:
II. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
A. Bryan Wilson is a "person" within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.6A pursuant to
G.S. 143-212(4).
B. A permit for an animal waste management system is required by G.S. 143-215.1.
C. Bryan Wilson violated Condition No. V. 3. of the General Permit by failing to
maintain the liquid level in the lagoon at the level specified in the CAWMP.
D. The above-cited failure to report by telephone to the appropriate Regional Office
as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge
of the occurrence of failure to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond
greater than or equal to that required in Condition No_ V. 3 violated Condition No.
III. 6. e. of the General Permit.
E. Bryan Wilson may be assessed civil penalties pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2)
which provides that a civil penalty of not more than ten thousand dollars
($10,000.00) per violation may be assessed against a person who violates or fails
to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of a permit
required by G.S. 143-215.1.
F. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed against Bryan Wilson
pursuant to G -S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B -282.1(b)(8).

G. The Director, Division of Water Quality, pursuant to delegation provided by the
M Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, has the
f f �
ija�-V authority to assess civil penalties in this matter.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, I make the following:
III. DECISION:
Bryan Wilson is hereby assessed a civil penalty of:
$ - for violating Condition No. V. 3. of the General Permit by
failing to maintain the liquid level in the lagoon at the level
specified in the CAWMP
$ for violating Condition No. III. 6. e. of the General Permit by
failing to report by telephone to the appropriate Regional
Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours
following first knowledge of the occurrence of failure to
maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater
than or equal to that required in Condition No. V. 3
$ 2. 6 on TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY, which is 1 a percent of the
maximum penalty authorized by G.S. 143-215.6A.
$ 135.36 Enforcement costs
S-2 . 1 A 5.3 6 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
As required by G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I considered
the factors listed in G.S. 143B-282.1 (b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public
health, or to private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs
over which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority;
and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

Chris Yaklin Farm
NPDES Permit No. NC277018
Richmond County
Dear Mr. Yaklin:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have an animal waste management system
NPDES permit pursuant to NCGS 143-215.1 and Section 402 of the Clean Water Act, you have
been found to be in violation of your permit.
The General NPDES Permit, Condition I11.12 states:
"An annual certification report shall be filed with the Division's Central Office and
appropriate Regional Office by March 1 of each year for the previous year's activities on
forms provided by the Division. If the facility was not in compliance, the annual
certification must be used to summarize all noncompliance during the previous year,
actions taken or actions proposed to be taken- to resolve noncompliance and explain the
current compliance status of the facility."
As of March 30, DWQ in Raleigh had still not received the Annual Certification Form for this
farm.
Required Corrective Action:
Please respond to this request by filling out the attached Annual Certification Form (and sludge
report, if due) for the year 2006 as required by your NPDES permit. To avoid possible
enforcement action for a violation of your permit, return by April 20 to the following address:
