Dear Mr. Finch:
Senate Bill I217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. 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.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919n33-0026.
Sincerely,
F�Fve W. T

Dear Mr. Rich:
On November 16, 1995, Mr. Buster Towell from the Raleigh
Regional Office conducted a compliance inspection of the subject
animal facility. This inspection is a part of the Division's
effort to determine potential problems associated with animal waste
management systems.
Mr. Towell's site visit determined that wastewater from your
facility was not discharging to the surface waters of the state,
nor were any manmade pipes, ditches, or other prohibited
conveyances (for the purpose of willfully discharging wastewater)
observed.
However, as a result of the inspection, the following
deficiencies were observed:
While the subject facility has been abandoned for several
years, there was evidence of past discharges from the waste lagoon
via an old pipe that was observed in the woods between the lagoon
dike and the adjacent swamp. It was apparent that this pipe was
once used to discharge waste into the swamp due to the excessive
amounts of dead vegetation.
The waste lagoon may also be in danger of having significant
leaks and/or dike failure from beaver activity in and around the
lagoon. The entire back side of the dike has had trees recently
felled by beavers and at least one burrow was noticed inside the
lagoon.

In addition to continued facility waste management, these
deficiencies must be immediately addressed to help prevent the
possibility of an illegal discharge. The Raleigh Regional Office
will require a written response to the aforementioned issues
within 30 days of receipt of this letter. You should specifically
address how you plan to correct this problem and submit a schedule
(with dates) stating when these management deficiencies will be
corrected.
Effective wastewater treatment and facility stewardship are a
responsibility of all animal facilities. The Division of
Environmental Management is required to enforce water quality
regulations in order to protect the natural resources of the State.
Accordingly, illegal discharges to surface waters of the State are
subject to civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day, and may also
result in the loss of deemed permitted status, requiring immediate
submission of a waste management plan.
This office would also like to remind you that you are required
to either have an approved animal waste management 21an by December
1997, or you may choose to submit a closure plan for this
facility. 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 Buster Towell at [phone].

Facility Number 35-4

Dear Mr./Mrs. Finch,
This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an animal waste
management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .0217. 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 $10,000 per day.
Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits listed below,
you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold
numbers of animals which require certified animal waste management plans are as follows:
Swine
250
Confined Cattle
100
Horses
75
Sheep
1,000
Poultry
30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff at
