SUBJECT: Notice of Violation
Designation of Operator in Charge
Bobby Murphy Farm
Facility Number 35-40
Franklin County
Dear Mr. Murphy:
You were notified by letter dated December 5, 1996, that you were required to designate a certified animal waste
management system operator as Operator in Charge for the subject facility by January 1, 1997. 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 latter, 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 N.C.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.
If you..have questions concerning this matter, please contact aur Technical Assistance and Certification Group at
[phone].
Sincerely,

Subject: Removal of Registration
Facility Number 35-40
Franklin County
Dear Bobby Murphy.
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 with a liquid wastes tem 30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff
at [phone] ext 502.
