Rawls 225 Green Street — Suite 714 Systel Building Fayetteville NC 28301-5043 Dear Mr. Rawls: `1 y�\ W03 L 1_ dA ®3AG03 E y r This letter is in response to your letter dated 8/20/01 concerning NOTICE OF VIOLATION AND SHOW CAUSE MEETING for Clear Run #2, #3, #4 & #5 Facility #82-326. The response was originally requested by 9/3/01 but after discussion with Bob Heath & Paul Sherman was extended until 9/21/01. The first concern -involved corn not being planted in fields 1, 4, 7 and 8. Fields 1 & 4 are Bermuda and small grain over seed rotation and fields 7 & 8 were planted in corn and already harvested. It was noted that waste samples had not been analyzed since July 2000 and weekly freeboard had not been recorded since December 2000. We have included Waste Analysis Reports for Feb. 2001, July 2001 and Sept. 2001 along with all weekly freeboard levels. If these concerns had been addressed during the visit by Soil and Water they could have been clarified much sooner. Concerning the 1200 feeder to finisher animals, not wean to finish animals, we have contacted the Murphy -Brown Technical Specialists and they are looking into permitting status of the old finishing building. As requested for this response the farm has: 1- Prepared all fields for required crops (fields 7 & 8 rye for winter) 2- Collected waste samples in timely manner 3- Recorded freeboard weekly and included in farm records 4- Provided one year irrigation records 5- Provided all freeboard & waste analysis 6- Scheduled Murphy -Brown Technical Specialists for week of Sept. 24'' 7- Planned to provide revised CAWMP after visit from Murphy -Brown Technical Specialists 41 In conclusion I would like to point out we recently changed our Technical Consultant. Greer Moore is helping keep our records and we look forward to improvements in this area.

Ross Jr., Secretary Gregory J. Thorpe, Ph.D. Acting Director Division of Water Quality You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have a non -discharge permit for the subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H.0217 Permit. On July 6, 2001, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Sol] and Water conducted an operation review of your swine farm located off Highway 411 in Sampson County. During that review, it was noted that the corn crop had not been planted in fields #1, 4, 7, and 8 as required by your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). It was also noted that a lagoon waste sample had not been analyzed since July 2000 and that weekly freeboard levels had not been recorded since December 2000 as required by your permit. This same review revealed that the farm had been operating as a 2750 farrow to wean and 1200 wean to finish operation. However, the farm's certification, permit, and CAWMP are written for 2750 farrow to wean only. Records reviewed at the regional office and in Raleigh revealed that the farm has never been certified, permitted, or had a CAWMP written for the additional 1200 wean to finish. The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed: 1. Establish the required crop in all fields as noted in your CAWMP. 225 GREEN STREET - SUITE 7141 SYSTEL BUILDING / FAYETTEVILLE, NC 28301-5043 PHONE (910) 486-1541 FAX (910) 486-0707 WWW.ENR.S'I'AI'Ii.NC.IJSlIiNti AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY!

Samples are valid 60 days before and 60 days after an irrigation event. 3. Record lagoon freeboard levels weekly and maintain with farm records as required by your permit. 4. Provide the regional office with copies of the past one year irrigation records, including lir-1 and Irr-2 forms. 5. Provide the regional office with copies of the past three years freeboard levels and waste analysis. 6. Submit to central office Non -Discharge Permitting and Engineering Department a request for permit modification to include the 1200 wean to finish animals. This request must include the following. a new WUP to include the additional animals, a new farm Certification to include the additional animals, and justification from a technical specialist that the additional animals can be served by the existing waste treatment and disposal system. 7. Provide the regional office with a copy of the revised CAWMP that includes the 1200 wean to finish animals. Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in the facility losing its General Permit and being required to obtain an individual non -discharge permit for the facility. This letter is also to offer you the opportunity to meet with divisional staff for a Show Cause Meeting. These meetings are to allow you the opportunity to present verbal and written explanations of why the above violations have occurred and why you feel that no further action should be taken by this office in response to those violations. After the meeting all information received will be used to determine if further actions, such as civil penalties, are warranted. This Show Cause Meeting is also to address your responsibilities as the Operator In Charge (OCC). I have attached a copy of Title 15A.08F.0200 Certification of Operators of Animal Waste Management Systems for you. These rules are routinely addressed during the training for certification to become the OIC and will be discussed during the Show Cause Meeting, should you wish to attend. This office feels that there are several duties and requirements of an OIC that have not been properly met. Again, the Show Cause Meeting is to allow you the opportunity to show cause why this office should not proceed with recommendations to the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission for further action against you as the OIC. You are asked to consider whether or not you wish to attend a Show Cause Meeting and to contact Mr. Paul Sherman, Environmental Engineer, of this office to establish a time and date for the meeting. I would like to stress that this meeting is not required but is offered as a means for you to present further information in a meeting format. Please be advised that should you not wish to meet with this office our final decisions will be based only on the written information requested in this letter and already on file. Mr. Moore 8-20-01 Page 3 Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking enforcement actions for these violations or any past or future violation. Furthermore, the Division of Water Quality has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per day per violation. Please provide this office with a written response to all of the above noted requests and a verbal response to the Show Cause Meeting on or before September 3, 2001. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact either Mr. Paul Sherman, Environmental Engineer, or myself at (910) 486-1541. Sincerely, Paul E.
