Dear Hubart Brad Brinson:
The Division of Water Quality (Division) received your sludge survey information on August 4,
2011. With the survey results, you requested an extension of the sludge survey requirement for
the three lagoons at Brad Brinson Farm. Due to the amount of treatment volume available, the
Division agrees that a sludge survey is not needed until 2014 for all three lagoons.
The next sludge survey at this facility should be performed before December 31, 2014. Thank
you for your attention to this matter. Please call me at [phone] if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the,crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when'tPf &QPJ, J
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations. APR p 3 2009
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and doi odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
1 of 8

This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
TDe applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass_ This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 1978.56 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 9892.8 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 32 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 79.1424 acres of land_ Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land Application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste-

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide
evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recieving crop type, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for
other nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons
per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See
USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Wastelnutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,
1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned
by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland
provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal
waste during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production_ Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Brad Brinson Farm
Animal Waste Management System
Duplin County
Dear Hobart Brad Brinson:
In accordance with your application received on 4-Jan-07, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Hobart Brad Brinson, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste -as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the Brad Brinson Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 5496 Boar/Stud: 0
Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0
Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0
If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows.
Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows
may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009 and replaces the NPDES
COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue
conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension
in Condition I11.19 does not apply.
Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the
conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An
adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information
must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design
capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a
modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either
wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is
a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay
careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, -rules,. standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon. abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
_ of the facility: I ,
Per 15A NCAC 02T .0111(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall
continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS
standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Wilmington Regional Office. The Regional Office
Aquifer Protection staff may be reached at 910-395-3900. If you need additional information concerning

Appendix 3. Sludge Volume Worksbeet.
The average thickness of the sludge layer is determined from information on the Lagoon
Sludge Survey Form. In this example, the average sludge layer thickness is 2.5 feet. The
dimensions of the lagoon and the side slope are needed for calculations. if the lagoon is a
standard geometric shape, the volume of sludge in the lagoon can then be estimated by
using standard equations. For rectangular lagoons and constant side slope, calculate
length and width at the midpoint of the sludge layer, and multiply by sludge layer
thickness to calculate sludge layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes,
convert the total surface area to a square shape.

LAGOON #P-1 WAS DESIGNED IN 1981 WITH A DEPTH OF 8.8 FEET. AFTER
CALCULATION THE RESULTS WERE 2.53 FEET, LESS THAN 4 FEET. THIS IS
BECAUSE OF LAGOON DESIGN AND ITS DEPTH. NO SLUDGE PROBLEMS
HAVE OCCURRED BECAUSE OF ITS DESIGN. LAGOON STORAGE IS 7.4 FEET.

If the sludge level is equal to or higher than the stop pump level of the lagoon or if the sludge level
results in an elevated waste analysis, a sludge management plan that meets the requirements of SB
Interagency Group Guidance Document 1.26 must be prepared by a technical specialist and submitted to
DWQ within 180 days. Work to reduce the sludge level must begin within another 180 days.
Compliance with NRCS Standard 359 must be achieved by the expiration date of the current permit, July
1, 2007.
If the sludge level is non -compliant, but below the stop pump level of the lagoon, compliance with NRCS
Standard 359 must be achieved by the expiration date of the current permit, July 1, 2007. If future
sludge surveys do not show improvement in sludge levels, DWQ may require the owner to develop a
sludge management plan that meets the requirements of SB Interagency Group Guidance Document

If your farm is currently covered by an NPDES permit, as a requirement of your permit, you
should have completed an annual certification form that summarized the environmental activities
on your farm for 2003. If you are not under an NPDES permit, ignore this letter. You will recall
that one of the questions on this annual certification form asked for your annual animal
population average. In a series of grower meetings that many of you attended, we committed to
provide you with your annual average inventories on or around the anniversary date of your
permit. Your annual average inventory, based on the information in our tracking system for
groups closed from 4-24-03 through 4-5-04 is as follows:
Facility Name Facility No. Permitted Head Actual Average
HOBART BRADLEY BRINSON 031-0064 5496 5005.0
If you did not provide the annual inventory average to DENR in your annual report, you should
forward this correspondence to them by the end of the month. They should be sent to the
following address:

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field
in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being
utilized, Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to
balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal
waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application
rates shown in. the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied -
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also
be a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage
capacity available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start
date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in
the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage
capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated.
If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design
storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval
in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface
water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
828761 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 01-22-2002 Specification Page 1 of 4

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner
that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit
growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be
considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with
the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is
applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least
50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,1995,
shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12.. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
--------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
828761 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 01-22-2002 Specification Page 2 of 4

15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on
crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant
with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
828761 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 01-22-2002 Specification Page 3 of 4

21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level
between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. -Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a
minimum of five years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 6
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and
wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a
rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing
conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced l' to 1.5' in row.
For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in
the establishment year in split applications in April and July. ,For established stands apply 180 to 240
lb/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts.
Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization
of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional agronomist or

Small Grain: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leachable
In the Coastal Plain, oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30; and rye from
October 15-November 20. For barley, plant 22 seed/drill row foot and increase the seeding rate by 5% for
each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable
seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the
initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and
rye at 1-1 1/2 bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is
essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to
select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more
than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at

NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 5496
(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is
to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all
plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it
is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N

Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or Soil
and Water Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the
waste.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to
secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated
on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland,
the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season
prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

WASTE UTILIZdTIONPLAN .
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a
high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a
manner that courses no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
Page 6

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23
Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Dear Hobart Bradley Brinson:
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Dean Hunkele on 11/23/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application. -The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at [phone]. If within 90 days you
are tenable to provide Dean Hunkele with the information you are automatically
required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2
below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter.

Category 2:
❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.

Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-64
Duplin County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on Melds that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. I R1, IRR2, DRY I, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR I, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or per
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avan

on September 9, 1999, upon recommendation of the Director of the Division of Water Quality for
entry of a final decision on the assessment of civil penalties and investigation costs against Hobart

Ms. Coleen Sullins
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ
PO Box 29535
Raleigh, NC 27626-0535
Dear Ms. Sullins,
The following should be considered as a request for remission or mitigation of the fines
imposed on my farm, facility No. 31-64, for violations occurring on March 18,1998. 1
understand that in requesting remission, I am waiving my right to an administrative
hearing. The official waiver of this right is included.
In requesting remission, I will not dispute the findings of the inspector in this case, but
would like to explain my position in this matter. The inspection on March 18, 1998
revealed that runoff had occurred via a waterway to a wetland area adjacent to my fescue
sprayfield. PIease note that the last application to this field was made on March 16, 1998,
two days before the inspection. The Spring of 1998 was one of the wettest on record,
which severely limited the number of `good' days for irrigation. There had been no rain
for 3 days previous to the 16th, and field conditions appeared to be satisfactory for the
intended .5" application that was made. During this application, there was no direct
runoff to the best of my knowledge. On night of the 16th, however, we did have a
substantial rain event. I would guess that the runoff detected in the inspectors samples
was flushed out of the ground by this rainfall, with part of it entering a grassed waterway
in the field and washing out with the rainwater. In hindsight, irrigation of the 16th was
probably not prudent, due to the saturation of the soil below that detectable on the
surface. My lagoons were never below the 19" mark required for compliance, but the
chronic rainfall of this period left my freeboards at a higher level than I normally feel
comfortable with, 22". With these high levels, a seemingly dry field, and an actively
growing fescue crop, I felt that irrigation on the l6th was the best option. In a nutshell, I
never intended to have any runoff, and feel that the runoff was inadvertent or accidental.
I try to run my operation in compliance with all regulations, and these issues are
not something that I take lightly. I think that you will find that I have never before had a
problem with my operation, and have always worked with inspectors, MRCS, and
Murphy Farms, to meet or exceed environmental expectations. In this particular case, I
worked with the Wilmington Region to provide records and other requested material in a
timely manner. The application in question was documented in my records. Since the
time of this violation, I have worked with irrigation and technical specialist Kraig
Westerbeek on looking for ways to possibly improve my irrigation system and Nutrient
9�

Plan by increasing buffer areas for wetlands. I am also trying to be more mindful of the
potential for runoff associated with the waterway previously mentioned.
I ask that you reconsider the amount of the fine listed in your enforcement action
for the reasons previously stated. I can assure you that the lessons learned in this process
have made me more aware of critical it is to always be environmentally conscience.
Sin ly,

Dear Mr. Brinson:
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against Hobart B. Brinson in the
amount of $4,584.49 including $584.49 in investigative costs.
Attached is a copy of the assessment document explaining this penalty. This action was
taken under the authority vested in me by delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department
of Environment and Natural Resources. Any continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new
enforcement action, including an additional penalty.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of
Environment, and Natural Resources (do not include waiver form).
Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for
any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a
detailed justification for such request:
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. 1 (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;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining
necessary remedial actions.
Please submit this information to the attention of:
Ms. Coleen Sullins
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27625-0535
Please note that all information presented in support of a request for
remission must be submitted in writing. The Director of the Division of
Water Quality will review the information during a bimonthly enforcement
conference and inform you of his decision in the matter of the remission
request. His response will provide details regarding case status and
provision for further appeal to the Environmental Management
Commision's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions. Please be advised
that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director and therefore, it is
very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in
support of your request for remission.
OR
3. Submit a written request for an administrative hearing:
if you wish to contest any portion of the civil penalty assessment, you must '

Ref: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Dear Sirs:
In response to your letter concerning the inspection of my farm on March 18,
1998, I would like to explain in my defense the circumstances surrounding the
said violation. On March 16, 1998 while spraying on field 92, I noticed the
plane flying over my farm. On March 17, 1998 we had rain, which we had
considerable amount of rain during this time, that would add to the moisture
of the field. There was ponding in one area in the middle of this field due
to the pumping and rain. The water was ponded, not flowing, there was also no
run off from lagoon. This inspection took place 49 hours after spraying was
complete, I feel any run off would be due to the rain on March 17, 1998.
After this inspection, there was no more spraying on this field until April 3,
1998 having made one pull for a total of 150 minutes, then again on June 8,
1998 giving the land ample time to dry. Before spraying began again after
inspection I reduced the orfis in the gun and increased pull time, there has
been no more ponding on this field. There is an excellent crop of fescue on
this field. The inactive pipe in lagoon #1 has been removed and back filled.
The brush and woody species has been cut and removed. Waste application
records are current for each riser and pull.
I would like for you to give consideration to this violation due to the fact
that I was trying to maintain a legal freeboard during an above average rainy
season and any ponding was accidental due to heavy rains. I have grown hogs
for twelve years and this is my first violation. I am constantly striving to
be environmentally safe_ Any favorable consideration on this matter would be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Brad Brinson

Dear Mr. Brinson:
You are hereby notified that Brad Brinson Farm, which has been deemed permitted to have
a nondischarge permit for an animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .4217 and
G.S 143.215.1, has been found to be in violation of its Animal Waste Permit.

contiguous to Cypress Creek in the Northeast Cape Fear River Basin.
The Division of Water Quality may proceed to revoke Brad Brinson Farm's permit unless
the following conditions are completed:
1. Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater and/or list actions to correct the noted
violation.
2. Make any and all modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges.

Please be advised that this assessment does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from
taking enforcement actions for this violation or any past or future violations.
When all required corrective actions are complete, you must notify this office in writing. If

Ms. Coleen Sullins
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ
PO Box 29535
Raleigh, NC 27626-0535
Dear Ms. Sullins,
The following should be considered as a request for remission or mitigation of the fines
imposed on my farm, facility No. 31-64, for violations occurring on March 18,1998. I
understand that in requesting remission, I am waiving my right to an administrative
hearing. The official waiver of this right is included.
In requesting remission, I will not dispute the findings of the inspector in this case, but
would like to explain my position in this matter. The inspection on March 18, 1998
revealed that runoff had occurred via a waterway to a wetland area adjacent to my fescue
sprayfield. Please note that the last application to this field was made on March 16, 1998,
two days before the inspection. The Spring of 1998 was one of the wettest on record,
which severely limited the number of `good' days for irrigation. There had been no rain
for 3 days previous to the 16th, and field conditions appeared to be satisfactory for the
intended .5" application that was made. During this application, there was no direct
runoff to the best of my knowledge. On night of the 16th, however, we did have a
substantial rain event. I would guess that the runoff detected in the inspectors samples
was flushed out of the ground by this rainfall, with part of it entering a grassed waterway
in the field and washing out with the rainwater. In hindsight, irrigation of the 16th was
probably not prudent, due to the saturation of the soil below that detectable on the
surface. My lagoons were never below the 19" mark required for compliance, but the
chronic rainfall of this period left my freeboards at a higher level than I normally feel
comfortable with, 22". With these high levels, a seemingly dry field, and an actively
growing fescue crop, I felt that irrigation on the 16th was the best option. In a nutshell, I
never intended to have any runoff, and feel that the runoff was inadvertent or accidental.
I try to run my operation in compliance with all regulations, and these issues are
not something that I take lightly. I think that you will find that I have never before had a
problem with my operation, and have always worked with inspectors, NRCS, and
Murphy Farms, to meet or exceed environmental expectations. In this particular case, I
worked with the Wilmington Region to provide records and other requested material in a
timely manner. The application in question was documented in my records. Since the
time of this violation, I have worked with irrigation and technical specialist Kraig
Westerbeek on looking for ways to possibly improve my irrigation system and Nutrient

Plan by increasing buffer areas for wetlands. I am also trying to be more mindful of the
potential for runoff associated with the waterway previously mentioned.
I ask that you reconsider the amount of the fine listed in your enforcement action
for the reasons previously stated. I can assure you that the lessons learned in this process
have made me more aware of critical it is to always be environmentally conscience.
Sinc ly,

Dear Mr. Brinson:
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against Hobart B. Brinson in the
amount of $4,584.49 including $584.49 in investigative costs.
Attached is a copy of the assessment document explaining this penalty. This action was
taken under the authority vested in me by delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department
of Environment and Natural Resources. Any continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new
enforcement action, including an additional penalty.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of
Environment, and Natural Resources (do not include waiver form).
Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for
any continuing or new violation(s).
Please submit payment to the attention of

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a
detailed justification for such request:
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. 1 (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;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining
necessary remedial actions.
Please submit this information to the attention of:
Ms. Coleen Sullins
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
Please note that all information presented in support of a request for
remission must be submitted in writing. The Director of the Division of
Water Quality will review the information during a bimonthly enforcement
conference and inform you of his decision in the matter of the remission
request. His response will provide details regarding case status and
provision for further appeal to the Environmental Management
Commision's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions. Please be advised
that the Committee cannot consider information that was not part of the
original remission request considered by the Director and therefore, it is
very important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in
support of your request for remission.
OR
3. Submit a written request for an administrative hearing:
If you wish to contest any portion of the civil penalty assessment, you must
request an administrative hearing. This request must be in the form of a written
petition to the Office of Administrative Hearings and must conform to Chapter
150B of the North Carolina General Statutes. You must:

a nondischarge permit for an animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217 and

Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater and/or list actions to correct the noted
violation_
2. Make any and all modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges.

In addition, the inactive inlet pipe in lagoon #1 should be permanently capped or removed.
Brush and woody species of vegetation should be removed from the outer dike wall of lagoon #1.
Waste application records should be kept by pull number and field number, using the correct acreage
to calculate the nitrogen balances.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within seven
(7) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste
management plan. Failure to comply with the above conditions will cause the existing animal waste
management system serving your animal operation to be considered in operation without a permit
as required by North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1.
Please be advised that this assessment does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from
taking enforcement actions for this violation or any past or future violations.
When all required corrective actions are complete, you must notify this office in writing. If
you have any questions concerning this matter please do not hesitate to contact either Mr. Brian L.
Wrenn, of our Wilmington Office at (910)-395-3900 or Mr. Shannon Langley at [phone],

Dear Mr. Brinson:
This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently
modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management
(DEM), Water Quality Section.
On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water
quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for
animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters
of the state. The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain
minimum criteria are met (15A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have
met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted.
We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds
listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993
and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form (copy enclosed) to DEM by
December 31, 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must
obtain signed certification before animals are stocked on the farm. Certification of an
approved animal waste management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water
Conservation Commission adopts rules later this year.
We appreciate you providing us with this information. If you have any question about
the new nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at [phone].

ENFORCEMENT CASE REPORT
Violator: Hobart B. Brinson
Contact Person: Hobart B. Brinson
Address: PO Box 131 Chinquapin, NC, 28521
Facility Name: Brad Brinson Farm
Facility #: 31-64
Receiving Stream and Classification: Cypress Creek, Class "C-Swamp" waters of the State
Regional Office: Wilmington
Inspector / Report Prepared By: Brian Wrenn
Registered Agent: (if applicable)
Address: (if applicable)
Case Narrative: On March 16 , 1998, during an investigative flight, DWQ staff observed the application of waste on to
saturated soils resulting in excessive ponding in spray field #2. On March 18, I998, DWQ staff inspected the facility. Excessive
ponding and runoff of animal waste was observed due to over application to saturated soils in spray field #2. The runoff was
flowing through a grassed waterway and into an adjacent wetland area. This wetland area is contiguous to Cypress Creek which
are class "C-Swamp" waters of the State in the Northeast Cape Fear River Basin. At the time of the inspection, all three lagoons
had more than the required 19 inches of freeboard. Large ponded areas of animal waste were observed in spray field #2 along
the grassed waterway (see attachments). Wastewater was observed in the wetland area contiguous to Cypress Creek at
approximately 14:15. Water Quality samples were taken from a ponded area in spray field #2 contiguous to the grassed waterway
and in the wetland area at approximately I4:30 (see attachments). The flow rate through the grassed waterway into the wetland
area was approximately 2 gallons per minute or 120 gallons per hour. According to the spray records, Mr. Brinson had applied
waste to spray field 42 on March 16, 1998 from 10.00 am to 12:00 pm. Waste was applied for 120 minutes at 225 gallons per
minute, applying a total of27,000 gallons (see attachments). DWQ staff advised Mr. Brinson to discontinue waste application
on spray field 92 until the field is in a more favorable condition to receive the application of waste. Kenneth Best of the Duplin
County Health Department and Gary Willis, the Murphy Family Farms serviceperson for the Brad Brinson Farm, were contacted
in reference to the discharge.

water:
According to the spray records, Mr. Brinson had applied waste to spray field #2 on March 16, 1998 from 10:00 am to 12:00
pm, applying a total of 27,000 gallons. Wastewater was observed in the wetland area contiguous to Cypress Creek at 2:15
pm. On March 18, 1998, the waste was observed discharging into the wetland area at a rate of approximately 2 gallons per
minute or 120 gallons per hour.

Recommendation:
The Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality is recommending assessment of a civil penalty to the
Director of the Division of Water Quality, pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A.
Include a copy of the previously completed Animal Operations Inspection Form, pictures and site sketch of waste flow if
waste is discharged to surface waters. Also include violator's response to Notice of Recommendation for enforcement. If
citing cert fed plan or permit condition violations, include copies ofpermit or plan.
Assessment Factors required to be considered by G. S. 143B-282.1(b):
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:
In stream samples taken from the wetland area contiguous to Cypress Creek displayed fecal coliform bacteria levels of
up to 35,000 colonies per 100 mL. This represents levels of 175 times the assigned stream standard. Levels of other
constituents found were as follows:
Sample Point #1
Sample Point #2
Ammonia Nitrogen, NH3-N
74.2 mg/L
91.0 mg/L
TKN
95.2 mg/L
136 mg/L
NO3 + NO2
2.19 mg/L
0.85 mg/L
Total P
29.2 mg/L
25.9 mg/L
2. The duration and gravity of the violation:
The spray records for the Brad Brinson Farm indicate that Mr. Brinson had applied waste on March 16, 1998 on
spray field #2 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Wastewater was observed in the wetland area contiguous to Cypress
Creek at 14:15. On March 18, 1998, waste was observed discharging into the wetland area at a rate of
approximately 2 gallons per minute or 120 gallons per hour.
3. The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality:
The effects to groundwater and air were not documented. Water quality was impacted as determined by water
quality analysis.

4. The cost of rectifying the damage:
The cost to rectify the environmental damage cannot be easily estimated. Cypress Creek is classified as Class "C-
Swamp" waters of the State. Animal waste discharged into a receiving stream will degrade water quality due to very
high levels of pathogens (IE. fecal coliform bacteria), ammonia, nutrients and other dissolved oxygen reducing
constituents.
5. The amount of money saved by noncompliance:
The amount of money saved by noncompliance is not known. However, alternative methods of applying the waste
("pump and haul" to suitable spray fields, no -till injection system, etc.) would require significant cost.
6. Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally:
All three lagoons had greater than the required 19 inches of freeboard at the time of the inspection. At that level, the
structural integrity of the lagoons was not in danger and cannot be considered an emergency situation. Mr. Brinson
willfully applied animal waste to saturated soils.
7. The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the
Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority:
The Wilmington Regional Office issued a letter on August H, 1995 for insufficient freeboard in lagoon #2.
8. The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures:
The State's enforcement costs totaled $584.49, as follows:
Staff
Wrenn, 14.5 hrs. $256.65
Mileage (96 miles @ $0.31 per mile) $ 29.76
Photography (film & Development) $ 2.08
Laboratory costs $196.00
Administrative costs $100.00

Ref: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Dear Sirs:
In response to your letter concerning the inspection of my farm on March 18,
1998, I would like to explain in my defense the circumstances surrounding the
said violation. On March 16, 1998 while spraying on field #2, I noticed the
plane flying over my farm. On March 17, 1998 we had rain, which we had
considerable amount of rain during this time, that would add to the moisture
of the field. There was ponding in one area in the middle of this field due
to the pumping and rain. The water was ponded, not flowing, there was also no
run off from lagoon. This inspection took place 49 hours after spraying was
complete, I feel any run off would be due to the rain on March 17, 1998.
After this inspection, there was no more spraying on this field until April 3,
1998 having made one pull for a total of 150 minutes, then again on June 8,
1998 giving the land ample time to dry. Before spraying began again after
inspection I reduced the orfis in the gun and increased pull time, there has
been no more ponding on this field. There is an excellent crop of fescue on
this field. The inactive pipe in lagoon 91 has been removed and back filled.
The brush and woody species has been cut and removed. Waste application
records are current for each riser and pull.
I would like for you to give consideration to this violation due to the fact
that I was trying to maintain a legal freeboard during an above average rainy
i season and any ponding was accidental due to heavy rains. I have grown hogs
for twelve years and this is my first violation. I am constantly striving to
be environmentally safe. Any favorable consideration on this matter would be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Brad Brinson

Mr. Bradley H. Brinson

Chinquapin, North Carolina 28527
Dear Mr. Brinson:
Subject: Brinson Farm
Facility Number 31-64
Duplin County
On August 2, 1995 staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Environmental
Management inspected your animal operation and the lagoon serving this operation. Of your three lagoons,
the middle lagoon had insufficient freeboard.
The following corrective actions should be taken: The Natural Resouces Conservation Service
t (NRCS) guidelines for Best Management Practices require that animal operations maintain at least one foot
of freeboard, plus additional storage to contain the rainfall from a 25 year 24 hour storm event. This totals
approximately 19 inches of required lagoon freeboard. The lagoon should be pumped down and spray
irrigated on a suitable crop cover to maintain at least 19 inches of freeboard.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, all corrective actions must be made within seven (7) days.
Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its' deemed permitted status and being required to obtain
an individual non discharge permit for the facility.

to the surface waters of the State without a permit and/or to follow a certified waste management plan.
The Division of Environmental Management has the authority to levy a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per
day per violation.
When the required corrective actions are complete, please notify this office in -writing at the address
below. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call Mike Williams -or Dave Adkins at
[phone]. If you have any questions regarding what MRCS guidelines for Best Management
�ractices are or how to best achieve them, contact your local MRCS office.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
L Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has
an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. Ifthe
producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable
proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization
Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons pe'' acre per year.
Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 14 tons
per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North
Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runo$'does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not
cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to
control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for
salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on sons
with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should
be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop
or forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the
following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a
lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation
ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See
Standard 393 - Filter Strips),
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands
by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided they have been approved as a Iand application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system-

'AST VT-JIL
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should
be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons_ Pumping shall
be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers_ A marker willbe
required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 69 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least
annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -
determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH
shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste
shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN AGREEMENT
Owner/Manager Agreement
I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specification and the operation and
ma. enance procedures established in the approved animal waste utilization plan for the -
farm named above. I (we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the
waste treatment and storage system or construction of new facilities will require a new
certification to be submitted to the Division of Environment Management (DEM) before
the new animals are stocked. I (we) also understand that there must be no discharge of
animal waste from this system to surface wasters of the state from a storm event less
severe than the 25-year, 24-hour storm The approved plan will be filed on -site at the
farm office and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District and will be
available for review by DEM upon request.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reachid may vary due to soil coeditions,f1ushing operations, and
the amount of fresh, water added t:, the system.
Lane application of waste water- is recognized as an acceptable
::+rthod of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigat ion. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to to carried out:
,
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent e::cessive odors during
>tart -up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste enter- i ng the I agoon thereby reduc i ng odors . Sol ids sh,'ru I d be
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached walte uti I ization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment L)
before land application.
- . Deg i n pump -;gut of the lagoon when f I ui d l eve I reaches e 1 eva-
L- i i,n 1 7,Z as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the f I u i a I eve I rant hes e i evat i on y 49-.2 or before f l u id depth is
than r. feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria)
4. The re -commended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
0"o ( 1 ) inch and the recQmmended maA irnum app I i c at i on rate i s r_►.-(
inch per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed anhua 1 I y. Vegetation should be fert i I i zed as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repa i r any eroded areas or areas damaged.. by r9dents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be cl i verted from the lagoon to stable
0u{:1ets.
5. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits -the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
muntal Management, has the responsibiIity for enforcing this.Iaw.

Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a
given storage capacity. When the waste reaches the designed
level, it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of ,urf ace an ground water-. The plant nutrients
in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer- required for the craps on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization Flan
uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waite should be
analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crap to be grown.
Several factors are important i n i mp I ement i n3 your waste
ut i l i eat i can plan in order- to ma% i m i ze the ferti l izer- value of
the waste and to ensure that it is a.pp I i ed in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste teased on the
"wends of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can ut i I i ze .
So i I types are -important as they have different i of i t trat i can
rates and 1 eaK i ng potent i a I . Waste sha I I not be applied to
i :end eroding at greater than 5 tans per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on satur-atE:d soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions ehould also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. . To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potent i a l
for pis I l ut i on, the waste should he applied to a or ow i ng crop or
not more than TO days prior to planting. I njoct i n3 the waste
or_ disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is Mused on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements may be more or less teased on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility.
The des i gn of your waste management f ac i I i ty i s teased on- the

Construction of ewcavatEd and earthfill areas shall be performed t
Lh e neat i i nes and grades as planned. Deviations from this w i I
require prior approval of tne SC:S. tarthf i I l sha I I not be placed
in standing water and reasonable compaction of the fills: shsa I l be
performed by the construction equipment or sheeps-foot roller +fur i ns
P ! acement. The ' mbankment of the lagoon sha l I be i nsta.l I ed using
the more impervious materials. C onstruc t i nn if fill heights sh a. l I
i nc I ude tern (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage,
when areas of unsui tat li ,material are encountered] they will need to
bo excavated a minimum of :one (1) foot below grade and back:f i l i cad and
compacted with a suitable material (ie-CL,SC,CH). Refer- to the soils
investigation information in the plans for special considerations.
Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent emcess i ve
osion and sedimentation.
Vegetation:
-----------
All exposed embankment and other- bare constructed areas shall be

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary dub to so i I conditions, flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water- is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Irrigation by using center pivot, gun, or
tr av I er is the preferred and most efficient method to dispose of
the effluent from the lagoon. Care should be taken when applying
waste to prevent damage to the crops and to prevent runoff from
the fields.
The fo l l owi t• g items are to be carried out.
1. Deg i n pump -out of the lagoon when fluid I eve I reaches invert
of the outlet pipes or at a pre -determined elevation.
2. Stop pump -cut before the lagoon depth is less than 6 feet
deep or at a pre -determined depth. (This prevents the loss of
favorable bacteria)
3. The recommended amount to apply per irrigation is one Inch,
and maximum recommended app l i cation rate is 0.5 inch per hour-.
4. It is recommended that the treatment lagonn be pr-echarged to
1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during beginning
stages of the operation. Precharg i ng reduces the concentration of
the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors.
Solids =iould be covered with water at all tithes.
. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas around the lagoon
and bu i l d i ngs mowed.
6. Repair any eroded areas and establish in vegetation.
7. The Clean roan Water- Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Natural Resources and Community Deve 1 opmen 1, (I)NF CD) , Wastewater -
Man l':ir.?men't Section, has the respons i b i l i t'•y' for enforcing this
law.
All surface water is to be diverted from the lagoon to an
adequate and stable cutlet.

Dear Mr. Brinson:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 919/733-0026.

Dear Mr. Brinson:
On August 2, 1995 staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Environmental
Management inspected your animal operation and the lagoon serving this operation. Of your three lagoons,
the middle lagoon had insufficient freeboard.
The following corrective actions should be taken: The Natural Resouces Conservation Service
(MRCS) guidelines for Best Management Practices require that animal operations maintain at least one foot
of freeboard, plus additional storage to contain the rainfall from a 25 year 24 hour storm event. This totals
approximately 19 inches of requiredlagoon freeboard. The lagoon should be pumped down and spray
irrigated on a suitable crop cover to maintain at least 19 inches of freeboard.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, all corrective actions must be made within seven (7) days.
Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its' deemed permitted status and being required to obtain
an individual non discharge permit for the facility.

Please be aware that it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater
to the surface waters of the State without a permit and/or to follow a certified waste management plan.
The Division of Environmental Management has the authority to levy a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per
day per violation.
When the required corrective actions are complete, please notify this office in writing at the address
below. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call Mike Williams or Dave Adkins at
