This inspection is one of two annual inspections as required by Senate Bill 1217. The Division of Soil and Water Conservation will also conduct an inspection of your intensive livestock operation during the 1997 calender year. The following comments are in regard to the inspection of facility 7-24. * The freeboard was observed to be approximately 1.0 foot for one of your lagoons and 4.0 feet for one of your lagoons. You are advised that you must maintain a freeboard of at least one foot in each lagoon plus a storage volume sufficient to accomodate the rainfall and any subsequent runoff from a 25 year 24 hour storm event to remain in compliance. The inspection revealed that the 25 year 24 hour storm storage capacity was not available. You should either transfer waste from the lagoons with insufficient storage capacity to a lagoon with appropriate storage capacity or begin irrigation activities from the lagoons with insufficient storage capacity as soon as crops are available and weather permits. You are reminded that your operation has not been certified in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217. You must complete certification by December 31, 1997. You are reminded that you will need to have a Iiquid level marker in any lagoon that does not gravity feed through a free flowing transfer pipe to a subsequent structure. You need to obtain a nutrient analysis of the waste water in the lagoon that will be used for irrigation. You should obtain this analysis as soon as possible 943 Washington Square Mall.
