Dear Mr. Spell:
William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary
Alan Klimek, P.E., Director
Division of Water Quality
On June 6, 2002, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality, conducted an
annual inspection of the Spell & Sons Farm in Sampson County. The inspection revealed that the waste application field
had a problem with weeds and grasses and the bermuda stand was poor to nonexistent. In addition, the lagoon dikes
need a suitable grass cover established and a leak was identified at the air check valve in the irrigation system.
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
Consult with a crop specialist for assistance with the appropriate measures and or chemicals to be applied
to correct the problem with competition (grasses and weeds) .
2. Contract an irrigation specialist to inspect and repair the irrigation system to prevent future waste application
problems.
3. Consult with a technical specialist for assistance with the establishment of a suitable grass cover on the lagoon
dikes.
