Dear Mr. Prestage:
On June 12, 2001, . staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality, conducted an
inspection of the Jumping Run Branch Farm in Sampson County. The inspection revealed that two of the swine bams had
significant leaks at the rear of the barns that need repair immediately. In addition, the bare areas on the lagoon dikes need
a suitable cover grass established to prevent erosion. Also, the irrigation records identified an overapplication of nitrogen
had occurred on two pulls.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. Correct the leaks either by repair or unclogging the discharge pipes as needed to prevent discharges from by
passing the lagoon system.
2. Continue efforts to establish a suitable cover grass on the lagoon dikes on the bare areas.
3. The over -application has previously been addressed by the DWQ in a NOV issued on May 18, 2003.

In response to your operation review on 4124K" we wuxld like to confront several issues you noted
during your inspection and request that this letter and information be attached to the letter of referral for
DWO to evaluate. Tract 6239 field 3 was determined to have an insufficient stand of Bermuda Bob
plans to contact a contract planter and address this issue by re -sprigging the field. The lease
agreerrient on
Sam Flopds land has expired; as a result, Bob will be meeting with him to secure a five-year leese
agreement. The waste plan at jumping run has been revised to provide flexibility of pumping on 10
aces of small grain over -seed as depicted in the narrative attached. The wettable acres in question
due to applying Out of the strict windows provided by the NCSU memo came to a grand total of 3.515.
Please take nate there was at the time of inspection there was enough nitrogen deficit for the flexibility
and under this eordition no referral world be necessary due to the application windows for berrruida.
As you are aware last year vas fairly dry in comparison to years before most fame did not make
applications as frequently as in the pari. As a result, precautionary late applications to Bermuda wane
common and would make a fanner feel better about the upcoming winter and give the cows one last
natural feedirig before crop transition. However, we all realize the importance of providing nutrients in
cycles along the entire growing season of a crop, bid in reality having or not having water can be
determined by factors beyond our coritrol. Enclosed for the referral is a copy of the pumping records in
question and the waste addendum if you have arty questions please give us a call.
