Dear Mr. Stallings:
This letter is to notify you that the Saralane Farms
Swine Operation located off Hwy. 56 is hereby designated a
concentrated animal feeding operation in accordance with
Title 15, North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0123, and
adopted Federal Regulations 40 CFR 122.23. The designation
of your swine operation was based on an inspection conducted
on May 4, 1990 by Mr. Ed Williams of the Raleigh Regional
Office. This inspection showed that you had established a
concentrated animal feeding operation requiring such
designation based on the following facts:
1. A direct discharge from Lagoon J#2 by way of a breach
in the lagoon. The animal waste discharges from the
breach in the lagoon into an unnamed tributary to
Cypress Creek (Class B) which is located in the
Tar -Pamlico River Basin.
2. The swine operation houses approximately 300 sows.
3. The present system in inadequate as the facility has
no equipment for the purpose of pumping the lagoon
and spray irrigation.

Subject: Notice of Deficiency
Sara Lane Farm
Facility # 35-41
Franklin County
Dear Mr. Dean:
On May 23, 1997, Mr. Buster Towell from the Raleigh Regional Office
conducted a compliance inspection of the subject animal operation.
This inspection is a part of the Division's effort to determine
compliance with the State's Animal Waste Management Regulations.
Mr. Towell's site visit determined that wastewater from your
facility was not actively 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
deficiency was observed:
One of the three waste lagoons on the facility had only 14
inches of freeboard which is less than the amount required. Animal
waste lagoons are required to maintain enough freeboard so that no
discharge of wastewater will occur to waters of the State during
any rainfall event less severe than a 25 year\24 hour storm.
There was evidence of a recent past discharge of animal waste
from,the smallest lagoon due to what appeared to be ground hog
activity. A hole was 'observed in the dike wall -that may cause
illegal discharges of waste into surface waters if the lagoon level
is allowed to rise.
The above matters should be addressed to prevent the possibility of
an illegal discharge. Please respond to this Notice within 30 days
of receipt. You should include in your response the actions that
you will take to address these deficiencies.

This office would like to remind you that you are required to
submit an approved animal waste management plan by December 31,
1997, or you may choose to submit a closure plan for this facility.
These plans must be Certified by a Designated Technical Specialist
or a licensed 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
Office.

Subject: Removal of Registration
Facility Number 35-41
Franklin County
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 and contact the Division of
Water Quality prior to stocking animals. Threshold numbers of animals that require certified animal waste
management plans are as follows:
Swine
250
Confined Cattle
100
Horses
75
Sheep
1,000
Poultry with a liquid wastes stem
30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our

Franklin County
In accordance with State Regulations (15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(E)) adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission on February 1, 1993, the owner of the subject facility was required to submit a
Certification Form for the facility's animal waste management system by December 31, 1997.
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 per 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
Conunission (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.

Subject: Classification of Animal Waste Management Systems
Facility: Sara Lane Farm
Facility ID #: 35-41
County: Franklin
Senate Bill 1217, 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 (01C) 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 O1C.
A training and certification program is available for animal waste management system operators. For
information on the training programs please contact your local Cooperative Extension Agent. Operator
certifications are issued by the Water Pollution Control Systems Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). For information on the certification process, please contact the Technical Assistance and
Certification Unit at [phone]. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each
system is based on the nature of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat
the animal waste. There are two types of animal waste management systems, type A and type B. Type A
animal waste management systems are generally used to treat waste generated by monogastric animals
which produce a low -fiber waste. Type B animal waste management systems are generally used to treat
waste generated by ruminants and other animals which produce a high -fiber waste. The type of training and
certification an operator receives should correspond with the type of system(s) they intend to operate. For
more information on the classification of your system please contact the Technical Assistance and
Certification Unit.
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 possess a currently valid certificate of the appropriate type.

Dear Mr. Dean:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 919/733-0026:

Dear Mr. Stalling:
On July 13, 1995, Mr. Danny Smith from the Raleigh Regional
Office conducted a compliance inspection of the subject animal
facility. This inspection is part of the Division's efforts to
determine potential problems associated with liquid waste disposal
systems.
Mr. Smith's site visit determined that wastewater from your
facility was not discharging to the surface waters of the state. In
addition, no manmade pipes, ditches, or other prohibited
conveyances (for the purpose of willfully discharging wastewater)
were observed. As a result, your facility was found to be in
compliance during this visit.
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 of wastewater to surface waters of
the State are subject to the assessment of civil penalties 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 take this opportunity to remind
you that you are required to have an approved animal waste
mans ement plan 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.

SUBJECT: ENG-Saralane Farms, D. E. M. Violation
William H. Stallings, Operator
TO: Daniel N. Good, District Conservationist
FROM: Carey F. Evans, Civil Engineering TechnicianZ
I recently made two visits to the Saralane Farms swine operation located in
Franklin County. I talked with Mr. Stallings about the size of his operation and
also obtained pertinent survey data to determine the capacity and
condition of the existing operation.
The following specifics were observed and determined:
1. Mr. Stallings leases the operation.
2. The operation is a 500 Sow, Farrow to Wean operation.
3. The lagoon was constructed in the 1970's, but there is no plans or
records on the lagoon in the Louisburg Field Office.
4. The lagoon was constructed originally for chickens and later
converted to a swine operation.
5, There is approximately 4.3 feet of depth available in the lagoon
from the top of the embankment to where sludge has accumulated.
Therefor the lagoon does not have adequate depth to get
anaerobic action and is serving only for storage of waste.
6. According to survey data obtained on October 29, the top of the
embankment is at elevation 45.3, the liquid level was elevation
43.0, and the top of sludge was elevation 41.0. The liquid level
was 2.3 feet below the top of the embankment.
7. Mr. Stallings did not have access to land to pump the waste on
during my first visit. When I made my second visit he had
obtained pumping rights to approximately 10 acres of bermuda grass
adjacent to his operation. The 10 acres of bermuda grass would be

adequate if the lagoon had sufficient depth to promote anaerobic
break down of the waste. According to our Tech Guide, Waste
Utilization Standard 633, the amount of nitrogen available
increases from 5.4 pounds per sow to 22 pounds per sow. This
increases the acres of bermuda grass needed to 36.7 acres.
8. The present lagoon, based on the surface area, would handle the
waste properly if it had a 12.0 feet depth.
9. The present lagoon with a minimum 7.0 feet depth (6.0 feet for
treatment and 1.0 foot for freeboard) could be used as the first
stage of a two stage lagoon system. install a pipe between the
existing lagoon and the adjacent pond. Use the pond for the
second stage to handle the temporary storage for waste, excess
rainfall and a 25yr24hr storm.
10. All outside drainage areas should be diverted out of the lagoon to
minimize the amount to be pumped.
11. Repairs need to be made to the broken pipes and/or solids
collectors to eliminate illegal discharge.
12. There is another small lagoon, approximately, 100 feet by 50 feet,
that has waste in it.
13. The pond adjacent to the large lagoon appears to have some
waste in it.
Since we are entering the winter, and normally a wetter season of the year, I
would recommend using temporary measures to get Mr. Stallings through the
winter. In the spring the existing structures would be brought up to current
standards to give anaerobic treatment.
To meet the Division of Environmental Management requirements, I would
recommend that the following be done now:
1. Divert all surface runoff out of the lagoon.
2. Develop a Waste Utilization Plan for applying the waste. It is
getting too late to pump the waste on the bermuda grass. Mr.
Stallings needs to obtain acreage , such as fescue, to apply waste
on now. Waste samples need to be analyzed to determine amount
of nitrogen available and the rate of application.
3. Pump the liquid waste in the lagoon down approximately 1.3 feet
below the level on October 29. This would be down to elevation
41.8 and gives approximately six months of temporary storage. Keep

the waste pumped down a minimum of 1.6 feet below the top of the
embankment (elevation 43.7). This would handle the waste until
about May 1, 1994.
4. Repair necessary pipes and solid collectors.
5. Vegetate all the bare areas with temporary vegetation to prevent
erosion.
Then in the spring bring the lagoon up to recommended standards. This
would decrease the amount of acreage needed to apply waste on from
36.7 acres of bermuda grass to 9r0 acres.
Mr. Stallings would need to make a decision as to whether he would want to
pursue having a one stage lagoon or a two stage lagoon. The present
height of the lagoon embankment is approaching the maximum height
possible without falling under the North Carolina Dam Safety Law. If the top
of the embankment is raised it would fall under the law.
There are two options that Mr. Stallings could use and keep the top of the
lagoon at the present elevation. One option would be to remove the sludge
down to a minimum 7.0 feet depth and use the existing lagoon as the first
stage of a two stage system. The other option would be to excavate sludge
and soil needed to obtain a minimum 12.0 feet depth for a one stage lagoon
system.
The sludge that would be removed should have samples analyzed to
determine the nitrogen content and additional acreage would be needed
to apply it on.
Since we do not have any soils information on the existing lagoon, we would
need to do a soils investigation. This is to confirm that the soils are okay for
the changes necessary to bring the lagoon up to current standards.
The existing small lagoon will need to have the waste removed and the
embankment breached and/or the lagoon filled in and vegetated.
If the Saralane Farms swine operation is abandoned the Division of
Environmental Management may require the waste to be removed including
the sludge. Then the embankment will have to be breached and/or the
lagoons filled in and vegetated.
If I can be of further assistance to you on this site, please let me know.

Dear Mr. Stallings:
On October 12, 1993 Mr. Danny Smith and I conducted a follow-
up inspection of the subject facility.
The freeboard of the first lagoon was observed to be
approximately 18 inches. Although the lagoon was not discharging
during the time of the inspection, it is important to understand
that without the development and implementation of a land
application system that a lagoon breach is imminent.
The solids collectors at the far end of a containment building
were full and not well maintained. Although, the solids collectors
were not discharging during the time of the inspection, it was
clear from visual inspection that without routine maintenance this
collection system will lead to future discharges.
The aforementioned problems should receive attention in order
to prevent a possible illegal discharge in the future.

The inspection was performed as a follow-up to the inspection of
December 7, 1992 which showed violations of state law and resulted
in these facilities being issued a Notice of Violation dated
December 11, 1992.
Mr. Smith observed a discharge from the lower lagoon. This
discharge was in violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-
215.1(a) which states:
"No person shall do any of the following activities until or
unless such person shall have applied for and received from
the Environmental Management Commission a permit therefore and
shall have complied with such conditions, if any as are
prescribed by such permit.
1. Make any outlet into the waters of the State.
This office is issuing you a Notice of Violation regarding
this matter. You will be required to immediately eliminate all
discharges of waste material from this facility and remove any
outlets from the lagoons. A continued discharge without a permit
is a violation of NCGS 143-215.1(a) and subjects you to civil
penalties of up to $10,000 per day for each day the violation
continues.

and/or the solids collector in order to eliminate this discharge.
Please respond in writing by September 7, 1993 to this Notice
of Violation. You should explain the efforts you have made to
remediate the discharges. You should also submit a waste
management plan which should include equipment (e.g. spray guns

Dear Mr. Green:
On December 6, 1994 Mr. Danny Smith of the Raleigh Regional

located on State Road 1433 in Franklin County. Mr. Smith observed
that your lagoon had very little freeboard (about one foot). Also
there was evidence of several broken/exposed pipes adjacent to the
hog containment buildings. As much as possible, you should prevent
stormwater (off the containment buildings, etc.) from having access
to your waste system. Because, even from minor rain -events can
easily lead to excessive volumes of wastewater in your lagoon that
you otherwise would not have to address.
Mr. Smith also noted that several of the solids collectors
located at the end of your containment buildings had signs of
resent discharges.' Also, there were several of these collectors
that were discharging during the inspection. These problems should
receive your prompt attention in order to prevent both future
discharges and the possible loss of your Deemed Permitted Status.

Dear Mr. Stallings:
On December 6, 1994 Mr. Danny Smith and Charles Brown of the
Raleigh Regional. Office conducted a compliance inspection of the
subject animal facility. Mr. Smith found your facility to be in
compliance with state water quality regulations. However, Mr,
Smith observed that your lagoon has little freeboard (about 12
inches), This problem should receive attention in order to
prevent a future discharge.
If you have any questions regarding the contents of this
letter please contact Danny Smith or me at [phone].
Sincerely,
/-Xent Wiggins
Water Quality Supervisor
