On July 25, 2002, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality conducted a routine compliance inspection of the above referenced facility in Sampson County. During the inspection, it was noted that waste applications in February had incorrectly been recorded to coastal bermuda. These applications should be recorded to the winter overseed, resulting in an overapplication of nitrogen. It was also noted that the WUP was incorrectly written using "on farm" records that utilized only two waste samples for 1999. The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed: 1: Submit corrected IRR2 forms showing the February applications credited to the winter overseed. Any overapplication to the winter crop should be subtracted from the following bermuda crop. 2. Avoid overapplication either agronomically or hydraulically in the future. 3: Contact a technical specialist to correct the "on-farm" records utilized in the WUP. In order to use "on-farm" records, at least three waste samples must utilized for each year. 4. Submit a copy of the corrected WUP and "on-farm" records. 225 GREEN STREET - SUITE 714 1 SYSTEL BUILDING I FAYET FEV1LLE. NC 28301-5043 PHONE (910) 4804541 FAX (910) 486-0707 W\i'W.ENR.. TATE.NC 1.
