Sloan FACILITY NO: 31-655 COUNTY: Duplin OFFICE: WIRO CASE BACKGROUND September 30 2010 - Discharge Complaint On September 30, 2010, the WIRO received an anonymous complaint that animal wastes were being discharged from the Sloan Brothers Farm into a field that was saturated due to heavy rains. September 30, 2010 - Inspection WIRO inspected the Sloan Brothers Farm and found: 1► Lagoon freeboard level was at 12 inches (photo 1) 11 An irrigation line was disconnected from the reel and was laying in the field approximately 20 feet from a field ditch that drains into an unnamed tributary to the Back Swamp which has a stream classification of C; SW ►► There was some animal waste ponded approximately 5 feet from ditch and approximately 30 feet from end of pipe (photo 2), however, the flow of water in the ditch was at a high rate and there were no visible signs of waste PHOTO COMMENTS PHOTO NO. CONLMEMT 1 Twelve inches of freeboard 2 Ponded animal waste approximately 5 feet from ditch 3 &4 . Sample I - taken approximately 1500 feet downstream in fast moving current Sample 2 - taken from ponded animal waste approximately 5 & 6 5 feet from ditch and approximately 30 feet from end of pipe 7 & 8 Sample 3 - taken from head of ditch approximately 35 feet from end of pte 9 & 10 Sample 4 - taken from cow pasture ditch approximately 50 feet upgradient from end of pipe Sample 5 - taken downstream approximately 60 feet from 11 & 12 end of pipe 13 Irrigation equipment not connected to pump 14 & 15 Pipe from which the discharge originated One of the farm owners, Mr. Corey Sloan, stated that the waste level in the Lagoon was at 12 inches at 8:30pm on the night of September 29, 2010 and it was still raining. At that time, Mr. Sloan wanted to ensure the integrity of the dike wall so he chose to lay his irrigation pipe in one of his irrigation fields and set the pump on a low idle to stay ahead of the rain. It rained approximately 5 inches overnight and at 5:30am on September 30, 2010 his lagoon was still at 12 inches. The amount of waste that reached the ditch that flows into Back Swamp is undetermined. Five samples were taken; however, the flow rate in the ditches and tributaries was at a high speed and of the extent of the impact to waters of the state is unknown. Samples are as follows: Sloan Brothers Farm 31-655 A. Sample 1 was collected at 1140 approximately 1500 feet downstream from pipe. The current was fast moving at this point. B. Sample 2 was collected at 1215 from a small ponded area approximately 30 feet from end of pipe and approximately 5 feet from ditch. C. Sample 3 was collected at 1225 from head of ditch approximately 35 feet from end of pipe. D. Sample 4 was collected at 1235 from a cow pasture approximately 50 feet upgradient from end of pipe. E. Sample 5 was collected 1250 approximately 60 feet downstream from end of pipe. All samples were delivered to Environmental Chemists, Inc. in Wilmington, NC at 1440 on September 30, 2010. All the samples were analyzed for Fecal Coliform, Total Kjeldal Nitrogen (TKN), and Nitrate. The sample results are as follows: Sample ID TKN (mg/L) Fecal Coliform mL colonies/100 Nitrate (mg/L) 1 1.6 14000est 0.50 2 38.1 280000 <0.02 3 11.3 1 27000 3.23 4 2.9 28000est 3.06 5 16.9 42000 5.81 Pumping wastes onto the field and bypassing the irrigation equipment was intentional, Mr. Corey Sloan did not deny it; however, he was very clear that the decision was made to ensure the integrity of the dike wall. October 5, 2010 — Follow up A follow up site visit was conducted by DWQ on October 5, 2010 to determine status of lagoon. The freeboard level was still at 12 inches. Subsequently, Murphy Brown was removing the last of the animals because they were ready to sell. The fields were almost dry enough to start irrigation. Mr. Sloan indicated he would be aerating the field before he irrigated.' October 7. 2010 - NOV A NOV was issued October 7, 2010 citing three -%7olations: 1. There was inadequate freeboard in the lagoon. The required freeboard is 19.5 inches and the freeboard level was 12 inches. 2. The farm owners failed to notify the Division of the inadequate freeboard. 3. Animal waste was discharged onto a field that ran off into a ditch that leads to an unnamed tributary of the Back Swamp. October 29.2010 - Response to NOV Mr. Sloan's response to the NOV was: ►► On September 26, 2010, the freeboard level was 26 inches. The farm received 20 inches of rainfall within three days. - ►1 The failure to notify of inadequate freeboard is true; however, the lagoon was not in crisis until late on September 29, 2010 and the Sloan brothers were unaware that the freeboard could be reported overnight. ►► The lagoon was found to be at 12 inches of freeboard at approximately 8:30 or 9:00 pm on September 29, 2010 and the rain was still falling. At this time water was pumped to Sloan Brothers Farm 31-655 maintain the integrity of the dike wall. There is also a low point in the lagoon that was of concern in regards to the dike wall integrity. N The corrective actions to be taken that were mentioned in the response are: o They know now that they can call and leave a message overnight to report freeboard levels o The low point in lagoon will be built back up and a new lagoon freeboard gauge will be installed PREVIOUS VIOLATIONSA1� P- ENALTIES There is one NOD.

It was observed that the lagoon had insufficient freeboard. In addition, an excess of nitrogen was applied to spray field #2 (#5, #6, #7), pull #1 beyond the 50 lbslac recommended by the Waste Utilization Plan (W.U.P.) for a small grain overseed. USDA-NRCS guidelines require a minimum of one foot and seven inches of freeboard. This is based on the amount of storage space needed to contain a 25-year, 24 hour design storm event without a discharge. NRCS requirements also specify that animal waste shall be applied at agronorruc rates. The level of your waste lagoon needs to be lowered and maintained in accordance with the NRCS guidelines and the state 2H .0200 rules governing animal waste management systems. Nitrogen application should not exceed the Plant Available Nitrogen loading rates listed in the W.U.P. for each field and each crop. In addition, the fescue and bermuda crops should be improved to ensure that the required Realistic Yield Expectation is met, as listed in the W.U.P. We suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation. 127 Borth Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% rccycled110% post -consumer paper Type of Visit ok Compliance Inspection U Operation Review () Structure Evaluation U Technical Assistance Reason for Visit Q Routine "xComplaint O Follow up Q Referral Q Emergency ()Other ❑ Denied Access Date of Visit: /G Arrival Time: fQ Departure Time: County: �K U Region: Farm Name: CLAN �G�-�'TI�E�S' - �_ Owner Email: Owner Name: I QQ* Ccac� Phone: Mailing Address: Physical Address: Facility Contact: Title: Phone No: Onsite Representative: QE Sog-Al Integrator: Certified Operator: Back-up Operator: Location of Farm: Operator Certification Number: Back-up Certification Number: Latitude: a o ❑ 1 Longitude: ❑ ° ❑ , ❑ � rUesig� urrent w _ �5 Desig�_x r Cst rQnt '7-Des>g arrest# trw+y w..''-',.�tG!':.Sr �'ia t, - :,".y' -i-R-w�-�*ef rF k`"�.;'`"•�-aY-+4�:3 Cye'` ".y"•eGx`, Sae. .RCa aCi Po Matto `;���tglftjR�pacttPopu[at�tontB r,Cgaci#glopuatYa�t x-�.Y�iwas.,r'c+:i7.�,'�i�{:`:.;"#,..c�`.#.,.f :_s.•. `-d°_=Str._�=��+.�r� c�—".'�•�r'Y cy._„'`:_'.3°.,..._.-t..'�_..� _ .s �...4 � .-.•i u-.�r. .'�F^`.�=az = �'C_n.C�.-__"_n��-v a_._ys.�ar.c<i:r�,. ❑Wean to Finish z. ❑ Layer N ❑ Dairy Cow ❑ Wean to Feeder Non -Layer ❑ Dai Calf ❑ Feeder to Finish El ❑ Dairy Heifer =: N. `' ❑ Farrow to Wean `uDi'otiiti y- ❑ Dry Cow El Farrow to Feeder .� -.. ..� � . ❑ Non -Dairy,. s'. ❑ Farrow to Finish El Layers ❑ Beef Stocker :" ❑ Gilts " El Non -Layers ❑ Beef Feeder '' [] Pullets ❑ Boars El Beef Brood Cow Q,7 - `'; ❑ Turke S ❑ Turkey Points x ❑ Other [] Other�Nbertu °'�+ Discharges & Stream Impacts 1.

This NOV/NOI references (1) inadequate freeboard, (2) Failure to notify the Division of Water Quality of inadequate-fireeboard and (3) Discharge of Animal Waste to waters of the state. In reference to item (1) on 9/26/2010 for the lagoon in question, the freeboard level was 26". Within 3 days, we received approximately 20 inches of rainfall, which is substantiated with the rainfall records. Item (2) references our Failure to notify DWQ of inadequate freeboard. This is a true statement, however, extremely large rainfall amounts in an extremely short period of time. On Wednesday, October 29 approximately 5 or 6 pm, the lagoon in question was at 19". Capon returning from church around 8:30 or 9:00, Cory went to check the lagoon and realized that because of a low spot in the lagoon, and the large amount of rainfall. the lagoon freeboard was approaching 12". With the rain still falling, and the need to protect the integrity of the lagoon dike, water was pumped to maintain the freeboard level. Therefore, the lagoon in question was not in crisis until late Wednesday evening and early Thursday morning, DWQ representative Amanda Gaines was at out site by 9:30 — 10:00. The period of time in question, is very short, less than 12 hours, and we had every intention of notifying DWQ that morning to report the inadequate freeboard, instead a neighbor simply beat us to the phone call. We also did not realize that we could call and report the freeboard overnight. To prevent this from happening again, we have teamed that we can call and leave a message overnight. One more note on this item is that our equipment bad been broken down and in repair on 2 separate occasions during the summer months. Item (3) is somewhat covered above, we pumped to maintain the integrity of the dike. The low point in lagoon will be built back up and a new lagoon freeboard gauge will be installed. I ask on behalf of Sloan Brothers that the Notice issued, bz reconsidered. If there are any further questions or concerns, please feel free to call me at (910) 293 5334. din cercly, gtx7 Corey Sloan 11/08/2010 14:00 910-324-4457 FOUNTAIN AUTO SERVIC PAGE 01 11/08/2010 14:00 910-324-4457 FOUNTAIN AUTO SERVIC PAGE 02 A Amount of Waste Produ Year Monsetc. 2448 animals X 1.99 (tons) waste/animallyear = 4,651.2 (tons) r lyear.

NC 29398 Tel: 910-293-3434 Fax:910-293-6957 I am writing this letter in response to the Notice of Violation/ Notice of Intent issued on October 7, 2010 to the Sloan Brother's, permit number AWS310655 in Duplin County. This NOV/NOI references (1) inadequate freeboard, (2) Failure to notify the Division of Water Quality of 'inadequate freeboard and (3) Discharge of Animal Waste to waters of the state. In reference to item (1) on 9/26/2010 for the lagoon in question, the freeboard level was 26". Within 3 days, we received approximately 20 inches of rainfall, which is substantiated with the rainfall records. ftem (2) references our Failure to notify DWQ of inadequate freeboard. This is a true statement, however, extremely large rainfall amounts in an extremely short period of time. On Wednesday, October 29 approximately 5 or 6 pm, the lagoon in question was at 19". Upon returning from church around 8:30 or 9:00, Cory went to check the lagoon and realized that because of a low spot in the lagoon, and the large amount of rainfall, the lagoon freeboard was approaching 12". With the rain still falling, and the need to protect the integrity of the lagoon dire, water was pumped to maintain the freeboard level. Therefore, the lagoon in question was not in crisis until late Wednesday evening and early Thursday morning, DWQ representative Amanda Gaines was at out site by 9:30—10:00. The period of time in question, is very short, less than 12 hours, and we had every intention of notifying DWQ that morning to report the inadequate freeboard, instead a neighbor simply beat us to the phone call. We also did not realize that we could call and report the freeboard overnight. To prevent this from happening again, we have learned that we can call and leave a message overnight. One more note on this item is that our equipment had been broken down and in repair on 2 separate occasions during the summer months. Item (3) is somewhat covered above, we pumped to maintain the integrity of the dike. The low point in lagoon will be built back up and a new lagoon freeboard gauge will be installed. I ask on behalf of Sloan Brothers that the Notice issued, be reconsidered. If there are any further questions or concerns, please feel free to call me at (910) 293 5334. inoer+cly, Corey Sloan 1705 S NC 111 Chinquapin, NC - Google Maps Address 1705 S Nc 111 Hwy Google maps Chinquapin, NC 28518 4 f' `J 1g _•-- �ui�m sty<Rd Qum Store Rd• Rd a� _mac R £cwxrds a — -- a r ' - 1 f I QQ ~� -�..

Submit a written request for remission including a detailed justification for such request: Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed below, as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed. Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment document.

Please prepare a detailed statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request will be approved, the following factors shall be considered: (1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 143B-282.1(b) were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the violator; (2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the violation; (3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident; (4) whether the violator has been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or (5) whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions. Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your evidence and inform you of their decision in the matter of your remission request. 'The response, will provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty Remissions (Committee).

DV-2010-0105 FINDINGS AND DECISION AND ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL PENALTIES Acting pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Quality, 1, Theodore L. Bush, Jr., of the Aquifer Protection Section of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ), make the following: I. FINDINGS OF FACT: A. Troy Sloan owns and operates Sloan Brothers Farm, a swine operation located east of Lyman, North Carolina on the west side of NC Hwy 1821 in Duplin County. B. G.S. 143-215.1(a) states that "No person shall do the following things or carry out any of the following activities unless that person has received a permit from the Commission and has complied with all conditions set forth in the permit: make any outlets into the waters of the State". C. Troy Sloan was issued Certificate of Coverage AWS310655 under General Permit AWG100000 for Sloan Brothers Farm on October 1, 2009, effective upon issuance, with an expiration date of September 30, 2014. This permit does not allow the discharge of waste to waters of the State. D. Condition No. I. 1, of General Permit AWG100000 states in part that "Any discharge of waste which reaches surface waters or wetlands is prohibited except as otherwise provided in this General Permit and associated statutory and regulatory provisions. Waste shall not reach surface waters or wetlands by runoff, drift manmade conveyance, direct application, and direct discharge or through ditches not otherwise classified as State waters." E. Conditioh No. V.2, of the General Permit AWG100000 states that "The maximum waste level in lagoonslstorage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP)". ,. 3 F. The CAWMP for Sloan Brothers Farm requires that the waste level in the lagoon not exceed the maximum liquid level of 19.5 inches below the top of the lagoon wall. G. Condition No. 1I1. 13. c. of the General Permit AWG100000 requires that the permittee shall report by telephone to the appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of failure to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater than or equal to that required in Condition V. 2. of the issued permit. H. On September 30, 2010, DWQ staff conducted a site visit in response to an anonymous complaint received, and observed discharge of animal waste from the Sloan Brothers Farm onto a field that runs off into a ditch that leads to an -unnamed tributary of the Back Swamp. The irrigation line was disconnected from the reel and was lying in the field next to a ditch that drains into an unnamed tributary to the Back Swamp, which are Class C waters of the State within the Cape Fear River Basin. I. September 30, 2010, DWQ staff observed that the freeboard level for the lagoon at Sloan Brothers Farm was twelve (12) inches. The required freeboard level for this lagoon is nineteen and one half (19.5) inches. J. The Wilmington Regional Office had not received notification within 24 hours of the first knowledge of the freeboard violation from Sloan Brothers farm that the waste level exceeded the level specified in the CAWMP. K. Troy Sloan had no valid permit for the above -described activity. L. On October 7, 2010, the Division issued a Notice of Violation/Notice of IntentAo enforce (NOV/NOI) to Troy Sloan identifying violations of N.C.G.S. 143-215.1 and General Permit AWG100000. The violations include the unlawful discharge of wastes to waters of the State, inadequate freeboard level, and failure to notify DWQ. M. The NOV/NOI was sent by certified mail, return receipt requested and received on October 12, 2010. N. The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled $686.02. Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following: 11. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: A. Troy Sloan is a "person" within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.6A pursuant to G.S. 143- 212(4). B. Back Swamp constitutes waters of the State within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.1 pursuant to G.S. 143-212(6). C. The above -cited discharge constituted making an outlet to waters of the State for purposes of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1), for which G.S. 143-215.1 requires a permit. The discharge also violated Condition I.1 of General Permit AWG100000. E. The above -cited failure to provide notification to the regional office violated Condition No. IH.I3.c. of the General Permit AWG100000, F. Troy Sloan may be assessed civil penalties in this matter pursuant to G.S. 143- 215.6A(a)(2), which provides that a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) per violation may be assessed against a person who is required but fails to apply for or to secure a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1. G. General Statute 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B-282.1(b)(8) provides that the reasonable costs of any investigation, inspection or monitoring survey may be assessed against a person who violates anv regulations, standards, or limitations adopted by the Environmental Management Commission or violates any terms or conditions of any permit issued pursuant to N.C.G.S. 143-215.1, or special order or other document issued pursuant to N.C.G.S. 143-215 2. H. The Chief of the Aquifer Protection Section. Division of Water Quality, pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of -Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Quality, has the authority to assess civil penalties in this matter. Based upon the above Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, I make the following: Ill.
