This letter is to advise you that this office has no record of having received the required Certification for the subject facility. Please provide this office with an explanation as to why this Certification was not submitted as required. This explanation must be received within 30 days following the receipt of this letter. Any existing facility owner which did not submit the required certification by the deadline is no longer deemed permitted to operate their animal waste management system. Therefore, if the certification was not submitted as required and the facility is still in operation, this facility is being operated without a valid permit. N.C.G.S. 143-215.6(b) allows the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to take appropriate enforcement actions for this violation for as long as the violation continues. As per Senate Bill 1217, which was ratified on June 21, 1996, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) may enter into a special agreement with facilities that did not meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. These special agreements can only be issued to facility owners which signed up for assistance with their local Soil and Water Conservation District Office by September 1, 1996 and which can demonstrate that they made a good faith effort to meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. The special agreement, if issued, would contain a specific schedule for the facility to follow to develop and/or implement an approved animal waste management plan. Attached is an application for a special agreement between the EMC and the subject facility. If you can demonstrate that this facility can meet the conditions for a special agreement, you may send this request along with your explanation as to why the plan has not been developed and implemented. This request would also be due within 30 days from receipt of this letter. P.O.

The information you provided us indicated that your operation's animal population does not exceed the number set forth by 15A NCAC 2H .0217, and therefore does not require registration for a certified animal waste management plan. Under 15A NCAC 2H .0217, your facility is deemed permitted if waste is properly managed and does not reach the surface waters of the state. Any system determined to have an adverse impact on water quality may be required to obtain a waste management plan or an individual permit. You are reminded that a discharge of wastes to the surface waters of the state will subject you to a civil penalty up to S 10,000 per day. Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits I isted below, you will be required to receive approval from the Division of Water Quality prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold numbers of animals are as follows: Swine 250 Confined Cattle 100 Horses 75 Sheep 1,000 —Poultry with a li uid wastes stem 30,000 If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our staff at (919) 733-5083 ext 571.

Enclosed with that letter was an Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Our records indicate that these completed Forms have not yet been returned to our office. As was explained in the previous letter, a training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry (with a liquid waste system). Therefore owners of these systems were allowed to request that they be issued temporary certifications until December 31, 1997. All that was required to receive this temporary certification was the completion of the Application Form. For you convenience, we are sending you additional copies of the Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Please return this completed Form to this office as soon as possible but in no case later than April 25, 1997, This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in locating a certified operator. Please note that failure to designate an Operator in Charge of your animal waste management system, is a'violation of MC.G.S. 90A-47.2 and you will be assessed a civil penalty unless an appropriately certified operator is designated. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility and liability for any past or future violations for your failure to designate an appropriate Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997.

This bill requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses, 1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements for designating an OIC. A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of 1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste. As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and returned by December 31, 1996. I£ you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919/733-0026. Sincerely, FOR Steve W.

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 there was no discharge of waste to surface waters of the State. It appears that the facility is out of operation. 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 you decide to initiate operation of this facility again, an approved animal waste mana5ement plan must be obtained prior to start-up. 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.
