Compliance Inspection
Fitts Swine Operation �GiG # 0-177
Chatham County
On August 31, 1995, Mr. Ted Cashion from this office conducted a compliance
inspection of the subject facility. This inspection is a part of the Division's
efforts to determine potential problems associated with waste disposal systems.
Mr. Cashion's site visit determined that wastewater from this facility was
not discharging to the surface waters of the State. No manmade pipes, ditches,
or other prohibited conveyances (for the purpose of willfully discharging
wastewater) were observed. One foot of lagoon freeboard was estimated during the
inspection. The Division recommends that a minimum of 19 inches of freeboard be
maintained at all times.
Effective wastewater treatment and facility stewardship are a
responsibility of all animal facility operators. The Division of Environmental
Management is required to enforce water quality regulations in order to protect
the natural resources of the State.
This office also reminds you that, if not already accomplished, an approved
animal waste management plan must be incorporated by December 1997. This plan
must be certified by a designated technical specialist or a professional
engineer. For a listing of certified technical specialists or assistance with
your waste management plan you should contact your local Soil and Water
Conservation District.
The Raleigh Regional Office appreciates your cooperation in this matter.
If you have any questions regarding your inspection please call Mr. Cashion at
919-571-4700.
Sincerely,
�Tu Garrett
